We notice from our exchanges that
there seems TO be a feeling of apathy
among farmers in numerous see
lions OF the State. Too long has II
been the case that the farmers have
allowed themselves to remain in the
same old rut. year after year. seem
ingly making no effort to help them
selves. In many cases they go TO
town and buy the very stun they
ought to be selling. They depend
upon the farmers OF other states
supplying them with some OF the
products of the farm which they
ought TO be bringing to town for the
people who are not farmers to buy.
The decadence or stand-still OF the
farming industry is a bad sign for
any State.

which the patron does not get the

DR.. PARKER'S TWO SERMONS
And How He Got the Morning Con-
gregatIon Back to His Church
at Night

A characteristic story of Dr. Parker
was told by minister who had it
from an old minister who was much
interested in Joseph Parker's early
work as local preacher, says the
British Weekly One Saturday he met
Parker and asked him whether he had
an engagement for Sunday. Yes"
was the reply.
Are your sermons ready, Joseph"
asked the minister.
Il have the morning sermon" was
the reply, but l am not sure about
the evening"
We'll, Joseph, what is your text for
the morning and how do you treat it?"
Parker went over his text and the
outline of his sermon.
but, Joseph" said the minister,
that is very clever, but it is not the
real meaning of the text If you will
look at the commentaries you will see
that you are wrong
Parker thanked him and went his
way. On the Monday the minister
again met his friend.
We'll, Joseph. how did you get on
yesterday"
Very we'll" was the reply.
"How did you manager"
WELL" he said. lin the morning /
preached my sermon and explained
the text in my way, and at the close !
said: This is how understand It, But
learned men understand it differently,
and will tell you In the evening how
the learned men understand it."
They all came back in the evening,
and Joseph had happy day

When Miss Viola took her seat al
the window at eleven o'clock she had
slight hopes of firing a handful Of
bird-shot over tramp's head and run
ming him into the next county, but
nothing beyond that
Old Danforth walked up the dusty
highway, whistling and muttering, and
hating now and then to say:

boot him all the way home, and Ill
go there tomorrow and tell that girl
what think Of her! No girl has any
business to keep pets around that will
encourage a dog to run away from
home BY hockey. this world is getting

The rabbit hutch was in sight over
the fence from the street.
Mr.. Danforth thought he saw his
old dog spooking around. and be whis-
tied.
"Ah, it's tramp's signali" az
claimed Miss Viola as she started up.
Darn that dog, I'll go In there and
sac what's holding ON to himI" NUT
tered the owner.
StepI Step! Step!
The gun was softly poked out Of
the window.
No dog in sight, but the old man
approached the hutch to see II he
could make out what sort OF pets were
inside
In the window above the girl drew q
long breath, hoped she might go to
heaven when she died. shut her eyes
and pulled trigger.
| Viola had never seen an old man

bending over a rabbit hutch or any
other old hutch!
He exclaimed! He reared!
He galloped about In a circle and

Twenty seconds after the discharge
of the gun Mr.. Rathbone was in his
daughters room and demanding:
What in the name OF Tophet have
you been doing now!"
"Oh. father have killed trampl"
THE devil you have! Let me see!"
He was after my rabbits. VIII

Il don't believe that's tramp. I'm

Three minutes later he was bending
over the victim and flashing the light

ably the best instance of the ability

ways he reminds me of Tommy Ryan
when that great boxer was at the
zenith of his fame. Clabby may be
ranked by some a bit higher than Glib
bons because he has met more men Of
reputation than his rival, but he will
have to be a wonderfully improved
boxer over what he showed US in this
city a couple Of years ago to defeat the
Gibbons we know around these dig

CIabby's Move Now.
If there is any delay in matching
them it will not be any fault of Glib
bOns, who has announced that he will
be glad to take Clahby on at any time.
Gibbons would have been Chips Op-
pOnent in the san Francisco bout last
week If George had shown any desire
to take him on. But the latter voted
to box Clabby instead. figuring him the
easier proposition of the pair. So it
appears that it is Jimmy's move in the
matchmaking line.
From all accounts Chip is through
making 1853 pounds for future matches.
He might do better in the heavyweight
class than he can hope for among the
middles, al that. While himself of the
