HOW TO HOLD THE BOY.

How to hold the boy on the
farm or in the business The
answer is simple. Give him a
stake in it.
A correspondent devoted some
pages recently to struggle
with this old problem, and an
swered it practically along these
sensible lines. What he had
worked out theoretically, a farm
er at Ironton, Ohio, has had in
actual working practice for some
time.
Knowing that his three boys
would soon be grown to man.

near him, this farmer took a
leaf from the books of sensible
business and formed a stock
company, with the three boys,
and, wonderful to relate, the
mother, as shareholders, but re-
tanning for himself the control
ling interest. At the end Of
each year he has been dividing
the net profits among the stock
holders according to their hold
ings.
He has also divided the re-
sponsibility for the business, and
by adding to the personal inter-
est of the shareholders, he has
increased the productiveness of
the farm thirty per cent, besides
keeping everybody concerned
contented and happy. In addi-
tion to this, he has given the
boys an education in farm meth

DEFINITION OF HOME.

Home-a small part of the world
which "all the world" could not buy.
Home-the anteroom Of heaven. 1t
should be antitrust, anti-monopoly,
and anti all other formsof evil.
The golden setting, in which the
brightest jewel is mother"
Home is the blossom, of which heag-
en- is the fruit.
The only spot on earth where the
faults and failings are hidden under
the mantle OF charity.
The place where the great are some
times small and the small are ofte n
great.
The fathers kindom, the children
paradise, the mothers world.
, The jewel casket containing the
most precious of all jewels-domestic
happiness.
Where you are treated best and you
grumble most.
Home is the central telegraph Office
Of human love, into which run in
Vulnerable wires of affection, many OF
which, though extending thousands
of miles, are never disconnected from
the one great terminus.
The center Of our affection, around
which cur hearts best wishes twne.
The little hollow scooped out OF the
windy hill OF the world, where we can
be shielded from our cares and annoy
ances.

HOME CIRCLE COLUMN.
THE BEST TRIRuTE-

III is reported that the most tounch-
ing scene of the reception of the
American soldiers in France was the
sight of number of war orphans on
the parade route who knelt with a
prayer when they caught sight of the
American colors.)
When our boys marched through Paris,
wild was their acclaim
From the men and women of France,
Who crowded the streets and cheered
till they we're hoarSe,
Caps were thrown in the air, and a
torrent of flowers
Were cast at their ieet IN the way;
The women threw kisses, the men
grabbed their hands,
A tribute of welcome TO pay.
Then sudden, the soldiers, all laugh
ing and gay,
Come on pathetic small line
OF sad little children drawn up by the
side
To see the Americans fine.
No cheers uttered they, and no flowers
they threw
AS the soldiers in khaki arrayed,
But as soon as the Stars and Stripes
they espied,
The war orphans knelt down and
prayed.
They prayed to thank God for the
help that had come
To give hope to their desolate lives.
To save their dear land and restore
them their homes,
To fight for babies, mothers and
wives;
They prayed God to bless and protect
those brave men
Who came over the sea to their aid;
And the hushed soldiers passed with a
silent salute
AS the war orphans knelt down and
prayed.

If brothers or sisters err, the world

Of teaching crowding the haunts Of

When one has a china umbrella

The sponge not only prevents It from

People are not vain except when
