HOW JAMIE FOUND A HOME.

Jamie was little boy eight years
old, but he felt the weight of years
upon his shoulders as he looked at
little Alice sleeping and saw tear
still wet upon her little thin cheek.
She had cried herself to sleep from
hunger, and Jamie felt that something
must be done at once. His mother
had been dead four weeks now At
first his father kept sober and worked,
and they managed to get along very
well. jamie took care of Alice and
the house, but one night his father
did not come home, and then Jamie
was told that the Judge had sent him
away for six months. The fuel was
nearly gone and the food had given
out the day before. Jamie had not
eaten anything but crusts of bread
for two days. He had managed to
get milk for Alice until today, but the
last of the money he had received for
a locket of his mothers was gone
now.
I shall have to sell her ring" said
Jamie, taking it from corner of a
drawer, "and she told me to keep it
for Alice and tell her when she was
old enough that she left it for her,

Eliaht of Golden Plover.

The longest continuous flight is
said to be performed by the golden
piover, which crosses from Nova SEQ
tia to South America, distance OF
2,400 miles, in straight line. In
foul weather they sometimes make a
halt at Bermuda or in the Antilles, but
if the weather is fair they do not stop
at all until they reach the mainland of
South America. On the Pacific side
OF the continent the golden plover
makes a continuous flight Of 1000
miles from Alaska to Hawaii, and nat.
uralists wonder how they manage to
strike so small a mark In the midst
OF the greatest of oceans.

The deepest colored latest towering

of the very best black-crimson, hardy

The careful cultivator must not sit
down and expect plants to do their

vigilance is the price of good roses.
Plenty of good feeding, plenty of cul-

1t is quite possible to have second

CLUBS FOR BOYS AND GIRLS
Make Rural Life Fuller and More
Appealing to Youth.

The primary object of the boys and
girls clubs which are being organized
throughout the country with the as
sistance of the United States depart
ment of agriculture, but in co-opera-
ton with the state colleges of agri-
culture, is to aid young people to be-
come more efficient and more content
ed farmers and home-builders. BY
cultivating in boys and girls habits of
industry and thrift, the possibilities
of farm and country life are revealed
not only to them but to their elders.
The best methods of handling farm
products and preventing waste are
demonstrated, the spirit of co-opera-
ton in family and community is de-
veloped, and the dignity of the farm
er's vocation enhanced by presenting
it as a skilled occupation, capable of
returning adequate rewards to the
competent. Finally, the school life
and the home life of boys and girls
are brought into closer relationship,
and the rural school teacher aided in
the task of making agricultural in
struction a vital thing.
The clubs may be organized under
the leadership of the county superin-
tendent of schools or any of the
teachers under him. If the education-
al authorities of the county are not
yet alive to the possibilities of these
clubs, the county demonstration
agent may take charge of the move
ment, or if there is no demonstration

THE EXCHANGE

The-Man-of-Genius had such ire
mendous faculty for understanding
The Woman's thoughts even before
she expressed them that it made her
marvel
Nothing like it has ever come into
my life before she told him appre
:iatively. "As girl | spent half my
time in explanations to my mother,
who never seemed able to understand
my motives even after | had spent
hours in laying them bare. Then

Il know, my dear" answered The
Man-of-Genius interrupting her re-
cital. ! do not wish to hurt you, but
one has only to look into the stolid
face of that husband of yours to un-
derstand. Forgive me for reading
things so clearly. 1t is my love for
you that gives me so keen a percep-
tion.'
The Woman lifted eyes filed with
pleading and gave a gesture of pro-
test, but The-Man-of-Genius was quite
accustomed to having his own way,
10 he paid no attention
Life is very full of Just such TRACE
dies as yours" he told her. Here
you are, an exquisite bit of human

The season of bloom of the hybrid

intelligent cultivation and proper
selection of varieties. The sturdy
bushes should carry their beautiful
flowers way into the fall We have
come to think of roses in the fall as
delusion and snare, excepting, of
course, the hybrid teas. which have
SO long been regarded in America as
the only everblooming roses. There
are, however, a good dozen and half
that can be relied upon to give a Sec
ond crop of bloom and be thing of
beauty in August and September
The Frau Karl Druschki, one of the
very best and most popular plants
ever raised, has done more to redeem
hardy rose culture than any other
hybrid perpetual class. 1t adapts
itself to almost dny soil, and stands
unique as a hardy white rose Of it's
class.
The very best of the long season

John Laing, pure, pale pink; Madame

You young scamp said the maid,
pulling him into the hall; did you
leave that poor little thing on the
steps in the cold? You ought to be
beaten"
Jamie did not answer. He knew
that she was angry. but he did not
understand
Here's the villain that left the
baby, she said as a lady came down
the stairs.
Are you going to keep herr"
jamie asked again But Alice had
heard his voice. Brewer, brewer
she called, running as fast as her
little legs would carry her.
jamie dropped his bundle and took
her in his arms. the tears streaming
down his cheeks, while Alice covered
his face with kisses.
The maid wiped her eyes, and the
lady told jamie 10 sit down and tell
her why he had left Alice on her
steps. Jamie told her that his mother
was dead and that the Judge had sent
his father away; that he had tried to
take care of Alice, but he was too
small to get work that would support
both of them. He wanted Alice to
have good home, and he thought as
they were rich they might want
little girl, and SO be brought her there.
The lady was crying when Jamie fin
ished his story.
I'VE do want little girl. she said
I'VE have lost our little girl and
our little boy, too, and we are very
lonely You and Alice must stay here
until your father returns and then
we will see what can be done"
And SO Jamie found home for him
self as well as Alice, for when their
father came home he was soon sent
away again by the Judge, who also de-
cided that their father was not the
sort of man to have the care OF
two such good children as Jamie and
Alice.

FERNS EASY TO RAISE
BY L. M. BENNINGTON.

The ordinary way to propagate this
class of plants is by dividing the
plant, by the creeping rhizomes, by
the little bullets that form on the
fronds and by the seeds or spores that
appear on the underside of the leaves.
The enterprising fern lover will find
it most interesting to propagate by
spores and perchance produce really
valuable addition to these beautiful
and graceful plants.

plenty of drainage holes, and cover
