FEDERAL FARM LOAN SYSTEM

The Federal Farm Loan System is
now in full operation. so far as the
Federal Land Banks are concerned,
and is closing loans at a rate which

during any previous year. The twelve
Federal Land Banks are now closing
loans at the rate OF a million a month
each. This is, of course. not uniform,
but the total loans closed during the
present month viii reach that volume
and a somewhat larger volume is
anticipated for September. We see
no reason why funds may not be rea-

Making Others Happy.
I'VE take care OF these gentlewomen
In various ways. To some we accord
a regular pension of fixed sum each
week or month. To others we send
groceries and clothes.
'Some old ladies' are made quite
happy by a subscription to the near

to the country or the seashore for
week or two.
'aThe funds are secured entirely by
voluntary gifts or by legacies from
charitable people. Often we advertise
our needs and get necessary funds.
Our goal is 1000 pounds each month.

BRIDAL CUSTOMS

For bride to buy her own flowers is ominous of discord.
 A rose from the bridal wreath of one you love betokens happiness.
 An old custom was for the bride to pick her own flowers to insure good happiness.
 If bride wears tuberoses. 1t Is sign of the mourning she will soon have to wear.
 It is lucky to find a flower from the brides bouquet. That means an early marriage.
 If girl wears a gown with rose- buds on 1t she will not be bride until 1t Is worn out.
 If a bride Is scratched by a thorn In her bouquet life will have Its little IT, ritations for her
 In Scotland brides and their attend ant maids think 1t good omen to wear some ornament In the way of thistle.
 The Scotch bride who can get piece of white heather to weur at her wedding Is sure her future life will be full of happiness.
 If the bride separates the flowers In her bouquet and throws them the one who catches the largest number will be married first.
 The bridal bouquet thrown by the bride to the wedding party means wedding for the girl who catches 1t. In some places 1t Is customary for the bridegroom to throw his boutonniere with the same fortune attached.

SAID BY THE SAGES

Poverty need never fear that sun shine will be rationed.
 Rectitude is only the confirmed hab- 1t of doing what Is right
 Good times for all can only be pro- duced by good work by all.
 It may be better to give than to re- ceive, but few of us are in a position to keep 1t up indefinitely.
 Do not talk about yourself against yourself. Listen while other people talk about themselves as much as they will-you wish to learn. Whatever Is coming. there is but one way to meet ito go straight for ward. to bear what has to he borne and to do what has to be done.
 Never allow your difficulties to con- centrate their forces. Meet them one by one as they appear, and you have a chance of conquering them.
 The more we do, the more We can do. He who does nothing renders him. self incapable of doing anything. Whilst we are executing one work we are preparing ourselves for undertak- ing another.
 A man who lives right and Is right has more power in his silence than an- other has by his words. Character Is like bells which ring out sweet music. and which when touched. accidentally even, resound with the sweetest sounds.

SAYS THE OWL

There is no beauty that can out live disgrace.
 We'll say this for the tightwad: He very seldom gets into the poor house. The man who doesn't stop to think usually has plenty of time in which to regret.
 We may be cowardly but we'll admit we've never had nerve enough to wear a silk hat.
 Sitting down to a good meal Is al- ways a better experience than getting up from one.
 The good Job of the future will go to the young man who is getting him. self ready to fill 1t now.
 When the other fellows business Is being discussed it is wise to let the other fellow do the talking.
 l
 Now and then you bump into adown- right crook. but the fact Is that most of the people you meet and do busi- ness with want to do the right thing.
