Including the items for rent, the cost of telaing wheat in the year 1909 was es- timated by the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture at 90 cents a bush- el;; the Cost of raising Corn was 38 cents a buthel, ana the eoat of raising oats was 31 cents a bushel. 'These fig- ures are probably a reasonable state. ment of fact where the three grains are euccessfully grown. The average wheat were 59 acres; corn fields, 30 acres, and average oat fields, 25 acres. The wheat cost the farmer to raise it $11,15 per acre; the corn $12.17 per acre, and the (tate $10.01 per acre, On the selling basis of 9 cents a busbel on farms, the wheat showed a profit of $5.33 per acre: on the selling basis of 62 cents A bushel on frump, the corn showeel a profit of $7.82 per acre; on the basis of 40 cents a bushel at the farm, the oats showed .a profit of $4.17 per acre.

Follow- ing right upon this conaes the nervous strain. of caring for the child, and a distinct change in the mother results. There is nothing more charnaine than a happy and healthy mother of chile dren, and indeed child -birth under right conditions need be no hazard to health or beauty. The unexplainable thing's that, with all the evidence of shattered nerves and broken health resulting from an unprepared condition, women will persist in going blindly to the trial. i It sn't as though the experience came upon them unawares. They have Ample tirae in which to prepare, but they, for the enost part, trust to chance and pay the penalty. In many honaes once childless there are now children because of the fact that Lydia E.

Among the many rare and interest- ing .plants forming the collection • in the Botonical Gardens, at Washington, is a camelete set of inseeehierous plants. These plants are so constructed as to attract insects, capture thent in various ways, and feed on them. Among these is a species call the "Vegetable Whiskey Shop," as it captures its vie. times by intoxication. The entireshop is shaped after the manner of a house, with the entrance projecting over the rim. Half -way down the brim of the cavity • there are an immense number of honey -glands, which the influence of the sun brings into active operation. This sweet acts as a lure to passing in- sects; and they are pretty sure to alight on the outside edge, and tap the nee. tar. They, however, remain there only for a brief period, as there is some- thing more substantial inside the cavity in the shape of an intoxicating liquid which is distilled by the plant. The way this beverage is straight, and the en- trance is paved with innumerable fine hairs, all pointing to the bottom. When the fly bee had its first sip it does not stop and fly out, as it could do, but indulges until It comes staggering up Ana reaehee the point where these fine hairs begin and where its progress out- wards is stopped owing to the points of the hairs being pliieed against it.

The eamera is simply held as an ordinary instrument of this character and the rapidly -revolv- ing wheel of the gyroscope steadies it So that there is no perceptible motion. This greatly enlarges the field of the moving picture, as scenes of busy streets may be reproduced without attracting crowds of onlookers, which mars the results on the film. The gyroscope built in the ehaesis of the automobile is said to be:a eemedy for skidding and, used in connection with the mariner's com- pass, it enables the vessel to be sailed much closer to her course.

PLAYTIME STORIES. • GIOTTO'S TOWER, Way .over in •the city of Florence, Italy is a great tower which was de- signed by the artiet Giotto.. Work- men started to build this tower about ,five hundred years ago, though it was anany years later when it was 00m- pleted. The children playingabout the istreets hear many stories about the -famous Giotto and his tower, and this is one their mothers used to tell them. Giotto was a little shepherd boy who tended the sheep in the mountains. :He was kind and good to his flock, 'often carrying the little lambs when they were tired. There was one lamb :that seemed to be weak, so Giotto gave it special care. One day when the sun was shin- .ing and the flock had -wandered a • great ways, little Giotto, wrapping his cloak about him, lay down on the ground to sleep. Beside him he- plac- ed the weak lamb, that he might pro- tect it. . As the boy slept it .seemed to him Mit the little lamb spoke, saying: "Draw thou a picture of me on a rock,'and shortly a noted artist who _will admire thy work will pess .y. Ire will take thee away, and in' time thou shalt become a great artist and .•; • 3 ttz. k Nilhh, '1 . $t. ' • • sculptor. Be not afraid; I will always aid thee." When Giotto awoke he was grieved to find the lamb dead. 13u1 the dream made such n deep impression that he i straightwayset about drawing his- ifavorite's picture on • rock near by. fScaree ' had he finished. when a ;stranger passed by, and everything ihapened just as the dveam-lamb had 'foretold. Thereafter Giotto made many pic- tures and statues of the Iamb, but the one supposed to be the best is at •the Tower of Giotto where a corner i near the street is a Sas relief of a ;shepherd with a. lamb. Some claim that at certain times of 'the night the lamb and its master 'come to life and wander about the kbigh tower just as fairies do. • a- '1* Decision of Interest to Anglers. , A judge in Mouroe County, Wisconsin, ,has handed down a decision of more ,thaa passing interest.

GA.THIORING OF THE, CLIRIOVS, In front of the window a man was setting up a short stepladder, and, eye. ing the glass carefully, a couple of boys stopped and watched listlessly. "That man's a window sign painter," continued the ofileer, "I have known him for years. He's a good fellow, and his. business is perfeety legitimate, hut he certainly does make some ,work for me whenever he comes arnuna these oorners." The painter disappeared ineide the saloon, to reappear with a tray of paint pots, a few brushes, Rua a big rag. He placed the tray on the stepladder, slow- ly treated himself to a generoue chew of plug, and, tacking up a brush; mount. ed. the ladder. Instantly there was is movement of the crowd toward him as if he had risen up and shouted"Bloody murder!" It wasn't only the boys. Men, evomen and children apparently were attracted alike by the eight. Before the painter had touched the glass with the first Stroke of his first ornate letter there was a gathering around him that choked the sidewalk to the eurb and forced the hurrying pedestrian, who wasn't curi- ous, to fight Iiis way through or take to the street.

Perspiration for better things on earth is the best aspiration for heaven. (Hying my imagination a rest often improves my neighbor's reputation. To know yourself may not reveal all truth, but it may prevent some lies. The suffering of the saints under the sermon does not augment their grace. :Many • preachers think that arguing over the tools is the same as building the holm. No feeling is more delusive than that you are raising yourself by despising others. It is better to be a fool seeking wk. dom than a wise man satisfied with what you have. There are too many who would rath- er go over the fells than not seem to be in the swim. • Childyen would be more truthful if we were lees anxious to make lying pro- fitable to them. Many think they have the faith that, is toady to. die when they have only the fanaticism that is anxious to kill. --Chicago Tribune.

TRE STILL WATERS Dr TRE VALLEY. Their source is ou the mountains, The streame of which we drink; Rut we must tread the valleys , If we would reach their brink. Their source is 011 the mountain*, Higher than feet eau go; Yet roman lips but touch them, In the valleys, still and low. Owe, when the heavenky voices Did. call me on their track, I Wondered Why seine hindrance Still drew .my footsteps back; Some feeble steps to succor, ' Some childish feet to lead, . Some wandering lambs to gather, Some hungered ones to feed, Some call of lowly duty, With low, osistless tone; Some weight of othera' burdens. Smile burden of their own; But now. though heavenly voices Still bid my spirit soar, While treading lowly places, I wonder thus, no more. Their source is on the •mountain, The streams of which we drink; But only in the valleys Our lips can read' the brink, Our heart,' are on the mountaias, Whither our feet shall go; But our path is in the valleys, Where the still waters flow. —Mrs, Charles. THE Tatum, AND INFINITE. - (By the Rev. Dr, Newell Dwight Strictly 'speaking, there is no yeason why the human intellect can not know every grain of sand on the seashore wad every leaf in the forest. To be sure, a grain of sand ist so highly polislied that It is els if the geologist had found a cup of gold set with gems lying on an in- finite seashore. For the botanist every leaf miniatures its tree but no Hugh Miller or Grany can ever, in seventy years, count all the sands on the sea - store, or tell the blades of grass on. the • hillsides, or the leaves on the trees. Modern astronomy has extended the uuiverse in space, just as geology has extended the world in terms of time. The seientist asks millions of years for the changes wrought in the earth's sur- face, and the scholar asks billions of miles for the spaces strewn with star dust and sun e,andles. The richness of this world, therefore, compels special- ism. As for the language, no man pre- tends to know all about the Greek lane guage—he specializes on one Greek author. No biologist tries to know all about life—one studies the maples and gathers specimens from all continents. Another studies the locust, and is in correspondence with students in other lands. Another studies the moon, and every clear night is at his glass, while another observes the twin stare. The riches of Wod's world embarass man, until he knows not whether to give his entire life to God's beauty expressed in music, or color, or marble; whether to give his seventy summers and winters to God's truth, expressed &rough the voice as a teacher, through the pen as an author, or through experiments as a scientist or inventor. In one mood, the youth exclaims, will spend all my years in this library." In the next moment, "I will giveevery moment to this gallery, these pictures,' in another mood the forests, the moun- tains, the wind-swept moors the tutrab- ling seas, storm -tossed, call with a thousand voices, urging him to be the child of nature and open-air life and then suddenly the slave, the orphan and the wanderer call man into the heart of the great city, to heal men's broken lives. Man must be electrio—his hand was made for one crystal goblet, not for the entire ocean; for one spray of flowers,\and not to hold in his arms the grains and fruits on a thousand hills, Plainly, no man by searching, in three -score years can find out quanta- tively all about God's ways and works and words. We must be content to know in part and to see through a glases darkly, because the things to be known are manifold in number, im- measurable in richness and ask not a handful of years, but an eternity of :study. THE MYSTERY OF JESUS. Pascal, one of our profoundestthink- ers, snakes a distinction between the passion and the agony of Jesus. "Jesus suffers in his passion those torments which men inflicted in Him, but in Rio agony He suffers torments which He in- flicted on Himself. He feels the nressure of a hand not human, but all power- ful," the buffetting end spitting were from Men, and were patiently borne, the self-inflicted agonies were protracted, within the bounds of the circle where Jehovah dwelt alone in awful invoible council. He who said, "Lee I come.' came in the fulness of time; He came not to live, but to die. "He made His soul an offering for sin." Keeping iu mind Pascal's division and distinction we may approach this sublimish study, in the great miracle of the raising of Labarus. This miracle was the greatest in the land, well-known to the teaders of Matthew, Merk and Luke, but new to the readers of John who wrote for those outside Palestine.
