A STORMY SUNDAY.
It was a stormy Sunday. I
thought my class in Sabbath•aceool
would be small, but resolved to risk
the half mile walk. hoping some of
my girls would be brave enough to
venture out.
As I approached the church I
Saw lir. Clifford's carriage drive
away, and on going into the vesti-
bule.I found Faye Clifford. She
was a lovely girl, the petted darling
of a half dozen worldly brothers
and sisters. A year ago elle h"td
consecrated her life to Christ and
her influence was alreitly making a
difference in her home,
"Coming out iu this storm is one
way of Letting your light shine," I
said, as I kissed her.
"I am glad you tbinl1 so. Papa
said the carriage might come for
me after church and that 1 might
take you home then."
We found but one in the accus•
tamed seat, Fanny Smith, those
sunny face was the light cf her poor
widowed mother's cottage. Just as
the superintendent roue to open the
school, Grace Olney, another of my
scholare entered the room. She
was a: bright, laugbiug girl of
twelve, Her black oyos were al -
way, 1 • a ; . to sparltlo with entllns•
iastn, or fusion with - tears, as the
subject of our lesson changed from
the steed to the pathetic, but to all
appeale to seek Geri al her father
Greet- elbnol: her head and said,
"I ate glad it rains, Miss elope,"
she ".aid, as slur erected us, "for
think what a iiiCO time we can have,
just oe three, so we can have you
all ourselves."
Tito opening servine wee over and
we tit usd to the lesson. It was
eveii learned by the members of my
class, as was always the case. .A.
parr, of each Sunday lateen was the
repeating of rt verse by each of us,
containing a certain word, the word
to be announced a week in advance.
Oar word for to -day was "abide."
I first turned to Fannie, who in a
tender, reverential voice repeated,
"And I will pray the Father and He
will give you another comforter,
that Ile may abide with you for -
over."
Gracie's verse was, "They that
trust in the Lord shall be as Mount
Zion, which cannot be moved but,
abidetit forever."
Now it was Faye's turn. With a
smile she said, "blies Hope, you
once told me you loved the fifteenth
chapter of John. It may be we
have selected the same. 'If ye abide
in me and my words abide in you,
yo shall ask what ye will and it
shell be dont uoto you."
"That le It favorite of mine, Faye, t
but 1 seleeted for to day, 'If yo troop 1 t
my commandments yo alien abide ' 1
in my love, oven as I llttvo kept my
I'athor'e oommanamenie and abide ' e
in his love," ! fi
"I ani net sure I know what it
1BO,tn3," Said Payee "abit;e 1Ilaane i tit
to leve cr stay." i 11
( "What do the rest of you think 2"
I asked, for I always wished titan
to talk freely.
"1. suppose it means living or
staying, as !tap Saye," w•as Graea'e
reply.
Fanny spoke slowly, "I cannot
tell just what it means, but—"
"Welt, dear," I said, taking her
band
"Dear Miss Hope, I know what
it means, fur it is so sweet to abide
in Christ."
"I am eo glad you do know
Fannie. Faye, it means to live its
and for Christ, trusting ever in Hie
promisee "
"And we shall abide forever,"
and a tender light beamed from the
brown eyes.
"Ir is e precious word, my dare
ings ; it gives Ing, a feeling of 80
curity when I think of God's abid,
lug presence."
Just then I turned to Grace and
something in her face prompted mo
to say, "Dear Grace, 1 wish you
kupw what abiding meant. Won't
pmt 0. -,me and abide in Christ 2"
The proud head was bowed and I
saw a tear trickle down her free,
At the. moment the last hymn was
announced, Grace did not rise and
when we wore dismissed I again
,trued to her.
She reined her face 'o mine, and
in a firth voice said : "'Yes, I will.
now this time I, too, will abide in
Christ."

'Lost time is lost forever,' said
the teacher solemnly. 'So is any
thing else that you lose,' said the
new boy. '0 no,' said the teacher
'you may lose anything else and
find it again,' 'Then 'tain't lost,'
said the new boy.
I tell you Oandidus,' said Scribu•
ler, 'the public is fairly going wild
over my poems.' 'Incised ?' re-
plied Oandrdus, 'I'm sorry to hear
that If you wish to conceal your.
self until it calms down, wh, my
house is at your service.'
'What comes after 'T' 2' asked a
young man of his sweetheart's small
sister. The little girl hesitated,
when mischievous Ralph, her big
brother, whispered iu her oar. "0,"
said the little girl, "I know now,
You come after tea, to see sister
Jane."
'How do you feel now 2' asked the
general manager ofa tar -and feather

'Well, of course, I asked him to give

Prof, T. Hui t, of tee Il inols Co
lege Farm, conulu,1ev as foliowe in
summing up the 085111te of his el:
periment in foodiug pipe
1. It requires 18.80 pounds of
skim milk to produce one pound of
pork when fed with cornmeal in ratio
1 1 7 to fattening loge,
8. Skim milk could not be exon•
omioally fed to fattening bogs unless
it was a waste product which could
not be otherwise utilized.
8. It required on au average 4t
pounds of shelled corn to product°
one pound of pork during au average
period of four. woke, or one bushel
produced 18?4 pounds.
4 It required 44- ponntls of corn-
meal to produce cue pouud of pork,
or one bushel of corn made into
meal and fed produced 1'21 `pounds
of perk,
G When fed dry, shell corn hi
more economical than cornmeal to
feed to fattening bogs,
G. It required 7i, penuds, or cue•
fourth bushel, of ground oats to
produce one pouud of pork, when
fed with equal parts by weight of
cornmeal.
7 One bushel of eerie is worth
nearly three bushels of oats as food
for fattening hogs.
8. Oorn•fed pigs gained about 4'
pounds per week. and ate about
twenty one pounds of corn per one
hundred pounds of live weight.
9. Pork was produced during the
cold weather, with coni at tweuty-
eiht cents per bushel, for less than
three cents per pound.
10. An insufficient food supply
for two weeks caused a very eon.
siderable loss in feeding thereafter.
11. Indian corn is the most soon-
omioal ports producing material dui
ing the winter months in regions
where extensively grown.
POULTRY PAZAGRAPRS•
For fowls eonfiued, crushed bone
is indispensable, shells, grass and
any kind of vegetables.
Any farmer who will sell off his
scrub fowls and stock up with some
pure breed—an egg and meat aim -
bine(' bird—can always find sale for
his surplus stock at remunerative
prices.
If your fowls are only common
bred fowls take the same care of them
that you would of fancy poultry and
yen will find it will pay for the
extra trouble and expense that you
are at.
Animalfood occasionally for young
or old fowls seems indispensable.
Beef cracklings are excellent and
Bewailing that'most every one can
obtain. Cracklings and .cornmeal
made into a dough and baked is good
feed for both old and young birds.
Au excellent insect destroyer is
said to be alum water made by dis-
solving a pound of alum in three
quarts of water. If the alum water
be added to whitewash it will not
only improve the whitewash but

plied,
