effectual rubbing on a towel made from a worn-Out grain sack. The hired man paused to change the water and wash his face, but the others pro- ceeded at once to the table, where no time was lost in ceremony. Harris helped himself generously to meat and vegetables and having done so, passed the platters to his son, and in this way they were circulated about the table. There was no talk for the first few minutes, only the sound of knife and fork piled vigorously and interchangeably by father and son, and with some regard for convention by the other members Of the family. John Harris had long ago recognized the truth that the destiny of food was the mouth, and whether conveyed on knife or fork made little difference. Mary, too, had found carelessness of little details both of manner and speech coming over her, as her occasional s"ain't'' betrayed, but since Jim had Joined their table she had been on her guard. Jim seldom said anything. but always that quiet smile lay like a mask over his real emotions.
 When the first insistent demands of appetite had been appeased, Harris, resting both elbows on the table, with knife and fork trained on opposite corners of the ceiling, straightened himself somewhat and remarked
 "Allan an me's goin' to town to- night: anything you want from Semp- ter.s store. Mary?"

 "Oh, Beulah's good heip." inter posed Mary. 'T hope she never has to work like I did.''
 "I guess the work never hurt us, 7 said Harris, helping himself to pre- served strawberries sJust the same. I'm glad 10 see you gettin' 1t a bit easier. But this younger generation 1t beats me what we're comin' to. Thinkin' about nothin' but fun and gaddin' to town every night or two. And clo'es-Beulah there's got more clo'es than there were in the whole Plainville settlement the first two or three years"
 'I got more neighbors, too." inter- jected the girl. Then springing up, she stood behind her fathers chair and put her arm around his neck.
 Don't be cross. Dad" she whis- pered. 'Your hearts in the right place but long way in."
 He disengaged her. gently enough. As Beulah said, his heart was all right, but a long way in. Twenty-Five years of pitched battle with circumstances sometimes in victory, sometimes in de- feat, but never in despair, always with load of expense about him, al- ways with the problem of income and outlay to be soived-had made of Har- ris a man veEy different from the young idealist of '82. During the first years of struggle for bare existence in some way the flame of idealism still burned, but with the dawn of the ''bet- ter times" there came a gradual shift ing of standards and new conception of essentials. The crops of the early years were unprofitable on account of the great distance to market; later, when the railway came to their doors. the crops were still improbable, owing to falling prices and diminishing yields due to poor cultivation. Then came a decade during which those who stayed in the country stayed because they could not get out, and it became cur rent saying that the more land man farmed the deeper he got in debt,
 Then came the swing of the pendu- lum. No one knows just what started it prosperitywards Some said 1t was that the farmers, disheartened with wheat growing. were applying them selves to stock, and certain it is that in mixed farming" the community eventually found it's salvation: others

Greatest Mlnds of All the Ages ee slowed Their Labors on the
 Poems of Homer.

The nliad and Odyssey we're prob ably sung by Homer about century and half after the destruction Of the town of Troy following the ten years of war that was waged In tte cause of Menelaus, king of Lacede- mon, whose consort had been carried away by the son of the Trojan mon arch. The two poems are as old as David's psalms. Originally the nliad would appear not to have been sin gle connected poem. but to have at tained at later period its present complete state.
 About one hundred years after Hon- CT, Lycurgus. the lawgiver of Lace demon, brought these poems into Greece, and two centuries and half later Pisistratus is supposed to have given them their perfect form. His son Hipparcus introduced the custom of reciting rhapsodies at the Pana- thenaia, or festival of the tutelar god dess. A more complete edition of the Homeric poems. from which the mod ern ones are taken. was prepared for Alexander the Great by Aristotle. which the former used to keep under his pillow in golden case. Also AratuS, the astronomer, Aristarchus of Samos, and Aristophanes, librarian at Alexendria, bestowed their labor on these immortal songs. Because of the fine moral sentiment, Homer became the pattern of Thucydides. the favor ite author of the greatest and noblest men, and one of the best teachers of the wisdom of human life.-Detroit News.
