Dread of Poverty.

A great deal of apparent poverty
comes from dread of poverty. A man
saves every cent and goes mind and
soul hungry and, ten to one, he is
starving somebody else at the same
time, along with himself. He is real
ly poor, for the time being, although
he has a large bank account. Poverty
will come every time as the result or
the improper attitude toward money.
Money is not a reality; it represents
things that we consider for our good.
But there is no poverty like that OF
the starved soul that shrinks and
dries up into narrOwness and compress
sion. In getting the feeling of wealth,
look about you. See all the wonders
of nature; believe that wonders will
happen and then get ready for them.
After the days work is done build air
castles, and then 60 in and lay strong
foundation under one of them. Ex-
pect to develop into efficiency neces-
sary for the bigger job. The key to
this lies in your hands In doing the
little things well.-Patrick Feston In

biologists labelled him; but a famous
naturalist who knows the breed at first
hand has called them "shreds of Sa.
tan, cinders from Tartarus." To give
these impish creatures their due. how.
ever, it should be said that life in
India is not little enlivened by their
presence. Here is a characteristic
tale Of their dOings:
A small hawk had seized a little bird
and perched on a leafiess branch to
devour his prey. The spectacle drew
two crows to the spot. They hoped

intended raid.
Then one of them quietly slipped

In front of the perched hawk, and
hovering steadily within a foot Of his
beak maintained a bustling menace Of
snatching the titbit.
That effectively compelled the at
tentiOn of the hawk. His prey
grasped firmly beneath his feet, he
angrily hissed and lunged at the how
ering nuisance. So lively was the
skirmiSh that the human onlooker for
got the existence of the second crow.
But now that willy bird reappeared
some distance in the rear of his des-

With stealthy sidlings and short,
noiseless flights he drew near. Then
he made swrr dash, seized the

The largest yield reported around
Chestertown in that of William T.

yield is from Is to Is bushels to the
acre and some farmers who suffered
from the hail storm are getting yield
of 3 bushels. Messrs. James B.
Tigner and James Masten on the Can
