Our farm papers tell ns

—the human product, and of the hu-
man product "that boy" forms one of
the 'eldest Besets.
The late 'Henry Wallace said: "Do
you know that the higg:eat thing in
life, whether in the city or country,
is to be just a fine human being, in-
teresbed'in all things that interest or
should interest all human being'?"
Next to the girl, "that boy" is the
most precious possession we have, and
it pays to put our best into the human
product and, second best, if need be,
into the live stock and •Mil.

great men have had little or no educa-

The Boy's Viewpoint.
If you can't get him to see things.
from your point of view, then you see
it from his, and dont arouse a spirit
of antagonism. One day when our
youngest boy was seventeen years aid
and in his third year of high school,
he cane home and, 'throwing himself
down in a chair, said, with a force and
finality I knew was useless to argue
against: "Mother, T'm not going to
school any more. I'm going.to see a
little of the world before I die."
I had seen it coning for a long
time, but seemed powerless to prevent.
it, so I just said: "Well, if that is the
way you feel, you might as well not
go; but'ran afraid you'll be sorry,
Little Boy." So he went to work in
a store in the near -by town, and it
really proved a blessing in disguise,
for a financial crisis came up, and in-
stead of "sexing the world,' he helped
tide us through. A year later he went
back to high school, taking six sub-
jects in -order to make up the lost time,
and was graduated that year.
Unusual boy? Indeed, no! When
he was about fourteen it so happened
that the school that he attended was
in session only half a day for the
whole term, and he was in the habit
of getting home about one o'clock.
For several days he hadn't came until

Unhealthy Eyelids.
There aro many causes for an un-
healthy condition of the eyelids. Some-
times the trouble lies in the eyes
'hemselves, but in many cases the
oyes have nothing to do with the
1 origin of the affection, although if the
Ma arc badly affected the eyes must
suffer. The lids are Iiable to ekin
troubles, like any other part of the
skin. After middle life eancerous
growths sometimes appear there.
When a general inflammatory con-
dition of the skin spreads to the eye-
lids, as in the alae of aerie, treat it
just as you would elsewhere, except
that you meet take great care not to
