CLEVER MR. FOX.
The fox about which I am go
ing to tell you and his mate had
two youog ouos. And as they
were always hungry, like most
healthy children, he was out hunt
ing from morning till night, and
often through the night, too, try
ing to get them enough to eat.
But sometimes luck was against
him, and now and then Mrs. Fox
complained that he was letting
the children starve.
One day off he started, after
telling the little ones to be good
and not worry their poor mother.
As he trotted along he reflected.
"Now, it won't pay to go near the
barnyard again to day. They will
surely be on the lookout for me.
And I'm not ashamed to say that
I'm afraid of the gun, for I can't
dodge shot, no matter how fast I
scamper. " Just here he came to
the river, and stopped to look at
his own reflection in the water.
"I'm quite a good looking fellow,"
he thought. Then his attention
was attracted by some crawfish
swimming along the bottom. A
bright idea struck him. "I won
der if I can't catch some," he
thought. He tried hard to reach
them with his paw, but thoy al
ways dodged the stroke.
Still ho wouldn't give up. "I've
seen boys fishing with lines," he
meditated. "Why can't I try to
lish with my tail? It's quitelong."
So, very quietly and cautiously,
he dropped his tail into the water
just above the fi.sh. "Rather cold
work," he thought. But soon he
got a bite. One of the crawfish
had caught his tail with his claws.
Up, with a swish, he jerked it out
of the water. With a good nip he
made it let go. Then he sat down
and quietly ate it, smiling all over.
The trick struck him as such a
good one that he threw back his
head and silently laughed, till he
nearly fell into the water.
He recovered himself, and said
seriously, "I must catch some
more for the children," and again
dropped his line into the stream.
The fish nipped him every time
and every time he landed them
successfully. When he thought
he had as many as he could carry
he took them up in his mouth and
started for home. Mrs. Fox wel
comed him and the fish with
sparkling eyes. "I hope the
children will like them !" she ex
claimed. The little foxes did like them
very much, and soon the whole
catch had disappeared. Now
things looked a little brighter to
the family.
"But still, you know, " said Mrs.
Fox, "that won't last us till to
morrow. You must try to bring
in something more."
So away went Mr. Fox again.
"Children are a great care," he
sighed. He trotted along the
river bank, hopingthat something
might happen to help him. Final
ly he came to the fish-house. He
didn't like to approach to near,
as the men were working inside.
But luckily he found some stray
fishheads which had been thrown
out.
"11a ! ha ! ha ! lure's luck !" he
cried, and, capturing several, he
scampered away, hurrying a little
as ho heard a dog bark.
But while running along he
thought, "If I take these fish
home my wife may complain.
People can't live on fish all the
time, and I've just given them one
fish course."
He was troubled, and sat down
to reflect. While wondering
whether he hud better take the
fish-heads home or not, he was
disturbed by a party of crows fly
ing above him. They had been
attracted by the appetizing odor.
"If I could only catch a crow,
that would be worth while," he
thought. But how? that was the
problem. "I have it," he glee
fully cried, as he suddenly spied
a hollow tree.
At once he went to work and
placed the fish-heads temptingly
iu a row before it. Then he hid
himself in the hollow and waited.
"Now we shall soo fun," he said
to himsolf, and chuckled over his
clover plan.
Tho crows kept circliug about
the spot, attracted yet fearful.
As the fox had disappeared they
became bolder. The first drop
ped upon the prize. Quick as a
flash, out sprang Mr. Fox and
seized him by the neck. There
was a short, sharp struggle, and
then the fox was again in his hid
ding place.his prey still and silent
beside him. Back came the other
birds. Another descended warily
and was in a like manner captur
ed by the nimble fox. And yet
others were his victims, so that
before the afternoon was over he
had caught four.
Off he started for home, drag
ging his crows after him.
"Won't my good wife be glad?"
ho thought.
And she was. For now the
whole family dined well, and still
something was left for the mor
row's breakfast
The two foxes laughed joyously
over the trick.
"You really are the wisest fox
I ever knew," said Mrs. Fox, ad
miringly. "I think perhaps I am up with
the times," answered Mr. Fox, in
a very self-satisfied tone. E.

BRAINS AND BRAWN.
Many farmers, ambitious to
succeed, sacrifice their best years
in hard physical labor, rising ear
ly and working late, and then
wonder why they do not "get
ahead. " They seem to think that
farming is a matter of hard work
only. They should not forget
that ideas form the basis of all en
terprises and that a plan must
first be conceived and well con
sidered oefore it can be put into
execution. A man who is physi
cally exhausted can not think
well. A certain amount of open
air exercise stimulates the imag
ination and aids clear, sane
thought, but every human body,
like a machine, has its limits for
endurance, atd when its allotted
amount of energy has been ex
pended in severe bodily toil there
is nothing left to think with. The
body cries out for rest, and thus
it goes day by day until the man
becomes a strong working ani
mal, indeed, but with a lessened
capacity for planning and manag
ing that work which will be most
profitable.
If you could hire a man to work
a month for 20, but do the work
yourself instead, you earn the $20
to be sure, but you may have
drawn on your capacity to man
age your affairs to an extent that
you Jittle realize.
A Texas farmer fell sick
through overwork and hired tem
porary help. Yrhen he began to
: recover he felt under obligations
I to his helpers and did not at once
I discharge them. He began to
tread and plan and consult the
markets, and soon saw that his
j business was improving as well
! as his health. Within a year he
had made more, money than he
had ever doue in the same time
by his own unaided efforts. This
is the experience of every one
who breaks away from the old
drudgery and begins to give his
brains a chance in the business
as well us his hands. A good
farm paper presents in concen
trated form the latest and best
things an intelligent farmer
needs to know. Don't get so
busy you can not find time to
read carefully on subjects rela
ting to your special work. Ru-alWuvl
Mother Always Keeps It Handy.
"My mother suffered along time
from distressing pains and gener
al ill health due primarily to indi
gestion," says L. W. Spalding,
Verona, Mo. "Two years ago I got
her to try Kodol. She grew better
at once and now, at the age of sev
oiity six, cats anything she wants
remarking that sho fears no bad
effects as she has her bottle of

LARGE IMMIGRATION.
The immigration statistics for
the year, which closed on May
30th last, shows that during that
period nearly half a million peo
ple from foreign countries came
to tho Uuited States. More than
one-half of them came during the
past four months : Italy, Austria,
Hungary, Russia and Germany
sent us most of these strangers.
Three-fourths of the entire num
ber were men, which would per
haps indicate that many of the
number are mere adventurers,
who have not corno to make this
country their permanent home,
but to take advantage of the bus
iness boom which prevails, in
tending later on to return to their
former countries. A good many
weut west, even beyond the Mis
sissippi, and these will m doubt
become permanent residents, but
by far the larger number have
remained in the states of New
York aud Pennsylvania, depend
ing upon such employment as
they may be able to secure.

matism. When you are suffering from
; rheumatism, tho kidneys must bo

will eliminate tho uric acid from

i is the most effective remedy for
this purpose. R. T. Hopkins, of
Polar, Wis., says, "After unsuc

THE BOOKS WHICH HELPED
LINCOLN.
It is frequently said that the
young people of to-day read too
many books. It is not difficult
to believe this when one remem
bers what strong types of intel
lectual greatness have been de
veloped through the thorough
study of a very few of the mas
terpieces of literature.
Lincoln, in his boyhood, had ac
cess to four books the Bible,
"Pilgrim's Progress," "Burn's
Poems" and "Weems's Life of
Washington." He so memorized
many of the chapters of. the Bible
that subsequently he seldom
made at the bar or on the "stump"
a speech in which he did not
quote from it. He early learned
in his professional life that to be
a public speaker the Bible was
the most useful of books.
Burns developed his fancy aud
imagination ; Buuyau taught him
how to use figurative language,
aud Weems inspired him with the
noble spirit of Washington. For
eign readers of his Gettysburg
speech and his second inaugural
address asked, "Wiienco got this
man his stylo, seeing he knows
nothing of literature!"' Ho got
it from the English Bible and
from Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Pi og
ress," two books which represent
the rythm, tho idiom, the majes
ty and the power of the English
language.

MEANING OF SHIP TRUST.
The American Shipping Trust
seems to have disturbed nearly
tho whole of the British Empire,
but more especially certain ele
ments In Great Britain and Cana
da. We have never doubted that
Britannia mado the sea, built the
first craft that ever floated upon
it, aud that she owns it now, to do
whatever she pleases with it, as
John Smith will do with his mill
pond. In ull things maritime,
she has a self-assurance, and it
is a pity to have it so rudely dis
turbed by greedy American mil
lionaires, But the facts are theso:
America has more money than
she knows what to do with, if sho
docs not meddle in some one
else's business ; thrco-fourths of
all the freight traffic that crosses
the North Atlantic comes out of
our hills and fields and workshops
and four-fifths of all tho passeu
gor traffic is composed of Ameri
cans or people who are trying to
become such. American capital
aud enterprise are certainly en
titled to a share iu a business
which is so largely indebted to
Americans for its existence.
There was one of three things for
our capitalists to do to build a
competing line of ships, and, by
the control aud assistance of tho
principal railroads of this country
fiually drive all foreign ships out
of tho trade; to buy all these ships
at enormous prices aud-sea tho
I foreign shipyards build more for
i competition; or, to buy a cotitroll
i ing interest iu a majority of the
: chief Hues aud have the .ships con
i tinue, for the present at least, uu
j dor their own flags. Mr. Morgan
chose the easiest of the three
; tasks, aud the one that would cer
tainly prove least offensive and
injurious to tho best interests of
England.
; Naturally, Britous are much
exercised over the possibility that
theso greyhounds under their
' flag will be unable to help protect
1 tho flag in case of war, now that
so many of them are in the hands
of a syndicate controlled by Am
ericans ; but it is writ in fate that
Great Britain can never again go
to war with tho Uuited States. It
would simply end in suicide for
our island kinsmen. Nor can the
mother country go to war with
any other groat power without an
understanding with the United
States, whether or not we own
her merchant ships. Eugland
has at least six months of food in
her pantry and warehouse. She
! prod uces about one-fourth of her
needs, her colonies furnishing on-
. ly about one-seventh. To Amer
ica and Russia she must look for
about seventeen -twenty-eighths.
I Russia supplies only a small frac-
; tion of this. America sends to
her about one-half. Not only this,
1 but American capital is pouring
into England for investment, and
, the money market is changing
I from Loudon to New York. Tho
fact is that neither Englishmen,
! nor, indeed, the best informed
Americans, have any conception
; of how much tho mother will soon
i be dependent on the daughter, so
i to speak, for her well-being.
The Ship Trust is only one of
several straws being blown by
the wind. Amorica will soon
need the English raihoads and
will buy them. July Success.

GOOD ADVICE.
It is as easy to bo a rich man
as a poor one. Half the energy
displayed in keeping ahead that
is required to catch up when be
hind would save credit, give more
time to attend to business, and
add to tho profit and reputation
of those who work for gam. Hon
or your engagement. If you
promise to meet a man or to do a
certain thing at a certain moment,
j be re.ady at the appointed time.
! If "you go in business, attend
I promptly to matters on hand,
j then just as promptly go about
: your own business. Do not stop
to tell stories in business hours.
! If you have a place of business,
! be there when wanted. No man
i can get rich itting around stores,
i Have order, system, regularity,
j liberality and promptness. Do
i not meddle with business you
i know nothing of. Never buy an
j article you do not need simply
because it is cheap and the man
who sells it will take it out in
trade. Strive to avoid harsh
words and personalities. Do not
kick every stone in the path ;
i more miles can be made in a day
I by going steadily on than by stop
ping to kick. Pay as you go. A
man of honor respects his word
as he does his bond. Aid, but
never beg. Help others when you
can, but. never give what you can
not afford to, simply because it is
fashionable. Learn to say "No."
No necessity for snapping it out
in dog-fashion, but say it firmly
and respectfully. Have but few
confidants, aud the fewer the bet
ter. Use your own brains rather
than those of others. Be vigi
lant. Keep ahead rather than be
hind the time. Young man, cut
this out, and if there be folly in
the argunient.let us know.
When Other Medicines Have
Failed.
Take Foley's Kidney Cure. It
has cured when everything else
has dissapointed. All dealers.
A WHACK AT TRAILING
SKIRTS.
"Have you," said one woman to
another in the course of a walk
through tli3 shopping district,
"noticed how crooked women are
getting to bey Look at some of
the women who pass us, and see
if the right shoulder is not almost
invariably lower thau the other."
The other woman looked, and lo !
it was so. "It is the natural re
sult of always having a train to
hold up," said the first woman.
"Why will women cling to such
unreasonable fashions? A train
is graceful only when allowed to
sweep the ground and we cannot
let it do that in the dirty street,
consequently we are everlasting
ly clutching it to keep it from tho
pavement, and the position this
necessitates is so constantly as
sumed that the right shoulder is
becoming lower than tho other.
If the thing continues the boast
ed carriago of the American girl
will tsoon be an empty boast in
deod. The only remedy for the
present, tho only hope for the fu
ture, is to leave off training skirts
and go to a gymuasium. There,
under the directions of a compo
tont teacher, one who knows how
to cure just such defects, train,
and never stop uutil you are
straight again."
