Utes later Mr., Grocer calls up and
orders three barrels, one of three diff
ferent kinds, so as to have a variety
for his customers, and he answers
him, "Al right. One barrel of Pip

cents; one barrel of Wine Saps S5.35,

And we will suppose there are an aV-

pays about u cent each, while the
grocer pays near 2 cents each, and
he in turn sells at cents each.

IMMORTAL. BOOK or RUTH
Great Pastoral Idyl viii Live Because
It Is Founded on Recital Of
Loving Kindness.

The Book of Ruth, Is the greatest
pastoral idyl in literature. 1t is founded
on loving kindness, the loving-kind-
ness Of the Moabitess revealed to her
family, and the loving kindness Of
Boaz, the wealthy Israelite, to Ruth,
his kinswoman. 1t also contains the
germ Of that great-heartedness which
is the center of the gospel of Christian
love- II is book that opens with tears
and falnine, and ends with the sound Of
wedding bells.
The story turns upon the straight-
forwardness Of Boaz. who showed
Kindness and manliness to Ruth, a
member Of nation that was Israel's
Zoe, and in that kindness founded
new house, the house Of Jesse and
David, the royal line that began a
greater than David 1t was the first
mingling Of the blood Of the Jew and
Gentle, symbolic Of the cosmopolitan
width of the Christian religion. 1t was
the sign that that religion was not
TO be founded up6n wealth or upon
social caste but Upon the large, whole
some love Of the litfnan heart.
Boaz Is immortal among Bible heroes
for his kindness, his plain, everyday
generosity, his sense of protection and
care for the lonely, unprotected Moa-
bitish girl, his dead kinsman's wife.
who in her poverty CLEANED In his har-
vest field after theireapers. Boaz gave
orders to his reapers that they should
allow her to CLEAN even among the
sheaves Of barley, and by his large
heartedness gained wife, and, more
than that, made a place for himself in
that immortal company who are re-
nowned for naught but for being kind.

ONES WAY IN LIFE
Every Man Is the Architect Of His Own
Success, However He May Be
Assisted.

How many Of us pass our time in
waiting for life to give us something
instead Of trying to find 1t for our
selves We even go so far as to think
that life owes us always more than we
receive, that we fulfill our mission on
earth by simply living a harmless ex-
istence and that fame and fortune
should be ours by right. 1t Is for this
latter reason that we so often resent
the good fortune of others and allow
ourselves to believe that we have been
Disseminated against by Providence.
We do not seem to realize that it is
well worth our while to do something
more than walt for what may or may
not come to pass, that we are the
architects in large measure of our
own success and that we must make
the best of what is before us in order
to learn the rights to fulfill the desires
of our hearts. If we make but little
headway we are quick with our ex-
cuses and are always ready to place
the blame upon others who can in no
way be held responsible. IL, on the
other hand. we do succeed, it seems
quite natural to take the credit our
selves whether we deserve it or not.
The chances are, however, that If we
amount to very much in this world the
credit belongs to us more than to any
one else even though we do receive as
sistance at times from those who take
an interest In us. The point Of the
matter is that we must fortify our
selves to meet conditions as they come
and to do our best to shape them into
happiness and prosperity for ourselves.

Notice to Sportsmen.

Commissioner Titcomb has just been
mailing to the holders of fishing and
hunting licenses of last year circular
letter explaining the fish and game
laws, and especially the conditions in
the game laws about which there seems
to be more or less misunderstanding.
He closes with an appeal for co-opera-
ton and urges the closing of small trib-
utary streams which contain trout
that do not ordinarily attain legal
size until they have dropped down into
the larger waters. The present law
authorizes the commissioner to close
such streams, but it cannot be done
without the written consent of the
owners Short-term closing of streams
has not been found advantageous. The
commissioner thinks it is bad policy to
change the laws every two years, one
of the reasons for which being the
fact that it takes about two years for
the public to become accustomed to
change. especially as they apply to
open and close seasons. The commits
sioner closes his circular by stating
that any persons desiring to be kept
on the mailing list use the postal card
to forward his address, and the number
of cards received will be his guide as
to the number of reports to be printed.
