You can enjoy yourself perfectly, and yet come back with a beautiful, clean. restful con- science. Try it Iâ€"St. Mary’s Calendar, (Chicago). Don’t dream for a moment that loud and boisterous conversation on rail- way trains, or steamboats, or in any public place, is evidence of good breeding. By talking loud, giggling and fooling, criticizing the character of the people you meet at a summer resort, you can easily make people understand that you have had the privilege of “being away for the sum- mer, but at the same time, and just as easily, you can persuade them that it would have been better to‘stay at home and spend the time learn- ing to be polite and refined and char- itable. Don’t imagine that because you are away from town you are free to say anything, do anything, wear anything that isn’t modest. All nature is pure and holy. If you get nearer to na- ture you ought to become purer and holier. Don’t imagine that because you get away to the bound of civilization you are out from under the domain of the ten commandments. You may go to a place where the only custodian of law is a. sleepy constable, a one-man police force, but there are millions of custodians of the divine law â€" the angels of God who will report if you violate the least of the command- ments. ON OUR VACATION, Don’t, irnagine that, wherever you may go, you will get away from the reach of God and of God’s law. Wher- ever there is sun or sky, or sea or land, or woods or forest, or moon or star, or air or ”light, there is the eye of God, and you cannot very well go to a place where none of these things exist. at thing the child willone day have to be punished for should be allowed to form. ‘Mothers should look ahead, and try to realize. the tendency (f habits that are forming, and begin early â€" very early ‘-â€" to check and direct in the right channel. -v t3: i3‘33§1‘§£§§e‘3‘§§§ 13,33 in he “‘95 else managfm hufidflfla Em â€"â€" em m!

The material obtained contained 20 per cent. in weight of nitrogen, the -residue being the coke and lime com- pound, which serves' for building the nitrogen. This compound‘is calcium cyananiide on lime-nitrogen.

It would take a pretty fine farm in Western Canada to compete with one of these comparatively small peach farms. And their crop of wheat is, at any rate, not more sure than is the fruit grower’s crop of peaches.” ’ "a“! saw orchards that.are 'simply loaded with the fruit, and farmers who -did not replant after the dis~ astrous frost of a few years ago are wishing that they had done so.

Very few dairy farmers know whether their cows are producing 3,000 lbs. or 4,000 lbs. of milk a year.- A merchant who contin- ues to pay more for his goods than he isells them for, soon fails. The far- ‘mer who cannot tell whether he is paying more to keep his cows than his cows are paying him for their keep, is farming in a dangerous manner.
