klnDLlNo USELESS HOPES.

God grant that you may ne' er know
A withered rose, fallen sird, ~.
A garden where no songs ere heard
Nor even that I miss you so.
Good night. dear hearth"
Many girl has wondered why this
young man 81 that one seemed studi-
ously to avoid her, although at their
first few meetings each seemed
pleased with her society.
She should not disparage her OWE
powers of attraction. In each instance
there is probably a very good reason
why the young man failed to respond,
Not every man is so situated that he
could marry If he SC willed. He con-
siders the wisest and best policy Is to
keep away from the girls, especially
those he is too deeply interested in.
And Ia this he acts wisely.
There are men who call upon young
women simply to while away the time.
There are others who would not kin
die hopes which they saw no way OF
realizing. It is said that the man who
truly loves will not allow obstacles,
no matter how serious, to block his
way.
If any nice girl would do to pick for
a wife a man might stand by watch
ing nonchalantly while the girl who
was intended as his real heart mate
drifted past him on life's ocean. But.
as this cannot be, he makes every
effort to grasp and win the prize lest
another should gain it.
The man who is laggard in this
respect evidences the fact that he is
still watching.
He must look carefully over the
garden of fair women to find the fow-
er which blooms for him alone. 1t is
a credit to a man that he leads no
girl to believe he has serious inten-
tions regarding her when his own
heart does not beat with the dread OF
losing her when he sees her with some
other man. When girl finds that a
man is not eager for an invitation to
call she should let him have his way,
There is no use in forcing an irksome
duty upon him. No whip, or goad, Is
needed to send lover along the love
route. There are plenty of Beau
Brummels about who fiatter girls into
the belief that they are in love with
them.
These are the kind that klndle a
woman's hopes only to see them
crushed at last. 1t takes time and
serious consideration for the girl to
know the difference between the noble
young man who will not kindle hopes
to destroy them and the man in pur'
suit Of his own pleasure, careless OF
injury to others.
Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1914-04-21

sion to lament over the fact that his
life lacks the interest which they would
have brought to him. The wife is too
proud spirited and sensitive to admit
her own yearning and whisper of her
hopes which have gone astray.
There are other husbands who look
upon the matter philosophieally In
their pleasant comradeship, they try
to make up to her, as far as they can,
for the joys which might have been
hers. They are still lovers. Such a
one tells his wife he does lot miss
what he never had; that he is content
to take all things as they come. The
husband who adores babies never let's
an opportunity pass to make 1t s!p-
parent to his wife.
If he sees child on the street,
when they are out for walk, he
stops short, gaZes at it In rapt atten-
ton, his heart in his eyes. If he OBJ
serves another man dangling baby
on his knees, the sigh he utters pierces
his wife's soul. If the dangled young
ster pipes out, "Papa" 'papa!" he
turns and looks at his wife with
grieved eyes. He knows just how
many children every man has in his
family. He would rather talk on this
subject than eat. He even hints it
wouldn't be amiss if they were to adopt
a couple of babies. The best hearted OF
wives may hesitate over mothering an
other woman's children by adopting
them; though she feels that the world
is full of dear little kiddies who need
homes.
She weighs the matter carefully.
Would it bridge over the coldness, SO
like chasm, deep and wide, that has
pushed her little by little out of her
husbands heart? If, at such crisis,
business reverses should come to him,
she feels it would not be right to
bring him additional cares to contrib
ute to. She looks the matter straight
in the face, realizing she should not
murmur against the Lords decree that
whatever is, is right. The day comes
when such husbands realize the truth
of this.

they would be walking on velvet in
stead of beating the hard pavements
looking for a job.
If nature intended you to dc this
work, do it. A successful foundation
with poultry is first made by going
into details in regard to the little
things that in the beginning seem to
be so Insignificant.
Women have greater aptitude than
men. The present-day farmer is the
man Of the hour (man or woman).
who has already made a success in
cattle and hog raising. You will not
find practical farmer who has al
ready made success, fail If he or she
undertakes poultry. Why? Because
they go about it on businesslike prin-
ciples with no thought of failure.
There is nothing about poultry
farming but what can be learned by
any bright woman and there is no
part of the work woman cannot do
If she is so minded. l see women in
poor health reaping a good harvest
both physically and financially in the
poultry business, and / wonder why
more women do not indulge in this
health-giving business. Often women
are left companionless Oh the farm.
Why not try poultry raising instead of
moving to the city to find something
to do to exc out a mere existence?
They write me, What branch of the
poultry business shall take up?" You
will have TO decide for yourself; as
so much depends upon the location,
the demand, the market, etc.
Business methods will pay. Profit
or loss can be known only by good
bookkeeping. We cannot overesti-
mate the Importance of keeping rec
ords of our hens. Upon these records
depends the success or failure of our
business. Under present conditions
with the increased cost of everything
which enters into the production of a
dozen eggs comes the necessity for
the application of stricter methods of
economy and a closer attention to
every detail.
We must get out of the old ruts and
open an account with the hens, giving
them credit for what they produce
and charging them with what they
consume.
But some one says, That is too
much work! We cannot afford tc
spend the time keeping these &C
counts!" / dare say some of you
win find some surprises awaiting you
when you begin keeping an account

performance, having covered the dis

Most of the country traversed was
hilly and thickly wooded. The wind
had cleared away most of the snow
over a considerable stretch and inter-
mittent thaws impeded the progress of
the party. On two occasions packs Of
wolves lowered around the skiers.
In some of the remoter districts the
appearance of the skiers caused much
excitement among the peasants, some
of whom took them for a band Of es-
capped convicts. Others believed that
that were the advance guard of a for
eign army invading Russia. and in
several villages the children ran away
and hid themselves in the woods.
The greatest difficulty experienced by
the party was in the transport Of pro.

carried on horseback, but numerous re-
