On A Common Level.

There are two occasions in men s
lives when all classes meet on a
common level, one being in the
Christmas season, and the other
while they are waiting for the re-
turns from a worlds base ball SER
les. At such times there are no
cliques or circles, and no personal
standing, so far as associates are
concerned. The banker, the law
yer, the merchant, the laborer, the
hack driver, and the messenger boy
are on an equal social footing. The
street laborer inquiries of the cap
italist for news of the game as
readily as of a fellow workman.
The banker halls the hack driver or
the messenger boy in familiar
terms. When attending a game or
when watching for the returns be-
fore a score board, there is an air
of familiarity that is not known at
any other time, except when men
become inbued with the Christmas
spirit, when all meet again on a
common level. Did you ever notice
on the day before Christmas, the
sedate business man who has put
off his shopping till the last hour?
How he will edge his way through
the crowd, with his arms full of
bundles which he would trust no
one else to carry, and as he rubs ell
bows with the men who are in his
employ, what a friendly familiarity
exists! Have you ever noticed that
the grouchy man who is never suit
ed, will laugh good-naturedly when
he is bumped by other shoppers,
and do you note the pleasant express
sion on his face as he carries home
trinkets for the children at Christ
mas time? The world would be
better if we had more occasions
that would put men on equal foot
ing, as do these two occasions

\ Lesson.

Tama News: An Iowa boy, under
sixteen years of age, raised over 200
bushels of corn on an acre of GROUND
this season. How do you suppose
he did it? He simply got hi;
ground in good condition in the
spring, not half way into the sum
mer. Then he planted the best seed
he could get after testing it to see
that it was strong. Then he cuiti-
waited that corn thoroughly and of
ten. He planted it early so tina:
when the drought of August came
his corn was well matured and
strong to stand it. 1t has ripened
out of the way of frost. There is
something of lesson in his perfor-
nance, for the corn growers of Iowa
who are reporting yields of % bush
els per acre. 1t is to get your ground
ready early, get your seed In early,
get good seed, cultivate, cultivate,
cultivate, and then it will be ripe
and right and plentiful.
