THE LESSON" TEXT.
(2 Siimuel. 0:1-11)
1. Again, David guih, together all the
shosen men of Israel, thirty thousand.
2. And David arose, and went with all
l!ie people that were with him from Uaule
of Judah, to bring up from thence the ark
Of Uod. whose name is called by the name
of the Lord of hosts that dwelleth betwe.u
the cherublms.
J- And they set the nrk of God upon a
tu-w cart, and brought It out of the houe
ot Abinadab that w as in (Jlbeah; and Uxiah
iind Ahio, the sons of Abinadab, drave the
tew cart.
4- And they brought It out of the house
of Abinadab w hich wus at Oibeah, accom-
iui! ma tne ark of Uod; and Ahio went be
lure the ark,
5. And David and all the house of Israel
pUtyed betore the Lord on all manner of
liistruniuus made ot lir wood1, even on
huri', and on psalteries, and on timbrels,
arid on cornets, mid on cymbals.

note one great difference In thu cht. me
ters ot the new king and ! tin old o e,
Saul. David Inquired of the Loril whetu
er or not he should go up ag;:l:.st the
Philistines. Saul, too, on his cai. inina
had done bo, but the story shows 1 iv in
quiry to have been punly lm ul
David'i character, as all his hittr o
shows, was thoroughly religion. 1 1 it
te not saying he was all that we-tnigU
think he ought to have bpn, but his'
eyes and heart were certainly turi.rd
God ward. Sin is never to be excused, t Iip
sins ot David are not to be, but thcrr is
a radical difference between the man
who aims to do rilit and the man who
(!ni s not rare whether ho does ri'ht or
wrong, fo long as he accomplishes his
nils. That David was sincere we can
have little doubt, ar.d that he could In
spire the religious emotions of both his
ffillowers anil of some of his opponents
is slnwii when the battle is over as be
declares: "The Lord hath broken forth
upon mine enemies before me, as the
breach of wa! rs." He thereupon failed
f lie place of victory llaal-parn.im. which
means a breach of waters. After om
more jrreat battle there came peace.
in this time of peace David becan a
revival of religion. The nrk was the
ficn of the Divine presence In Israel.
David had already made Jerusnleni his
political capital, now he was to make It
the religious capital of the nation also.
To this end he sought to bring the ark
to Jerusalem. When part way along on j
Its journey I'zzah, one of the attendants. I
put his hand on the ark to steady it, and ;
Immediately he was stricken dead, It is
believed by lightning. The method of i
conveying the ark was in direct viola- j
tion of statute (No. 4:13: 7:9). In j
this fatality David saw the hand of God,
and he stopped the ark where it was. To
the house of Obed-edom, where it rested
for about three months, the ark brought
blessing. In Just what manner we do not
know, but exceptional enough in char
acter to be reported to the king. Then
in acordance with statute the ark was ,
carried the rest of the way to Jerusalem,
t'pon its arrival David instituted a great
festival sncrlflce (see 1 Chroh, lC:l-fi).
This was also the occasion for the writ
ing of one of David's psalms (1 Chron.
10:7-oC).
Throughout these ceremonies great
enthusiasm was evinced by the people.
Religious enthusiasm, says Peloubet, Is
a great power for good. It is never to be
repressed, but only guided. There are
more elements In religion that stir and
stimulate the soul, that awaken deep and
lasting enthusiasm, than in any other
cause. We need more triumphal proces
sions such as accompanied Jesus over
Olivet to Jerusalem. He declared when
the Tharisees complained of the chil
dren's hosannas, that the very stones
would cry out if these held their peace.

scientists and lawmakers have labored
lor years in seeking methods for the
extermination of the alleged pests, it
is like removing the foundations of
things to be told now that these frisky
ul noisy little animals have a use
ful and important place in the scheme
of creation, and in the advancement of
human industry. Credit for this dis
covery belongs to Louis Grosmentlr. a
settler on the MInnecaduza creek in
Cherry county, Neb., and tho honor of
Tirst publishing the story is the Omaha
Uee's. 'air. Grosmentir raises alfalfa,
more from necessity than choice, as lit
tle else can be grown profitably on his
semi-arid acres, and the prairie dogs
are valuable assistants in his agricul
tural operations. As is well known to
the Uee's correspondent the two es
sentials for the successful cultivation of
alfalfa are that the plant s'.iall be in
fected with a certain fungus, and that
its roots should be able to piene tho
bard soil and tap the water beneath.
Here is where the prairie dogs come
into the affair. According to Mr. Cros
scut ir. the very iiselul dogs thorough
ly infect the soil wiUi this lungiis iu
their bin-rowings. At llrst. of course,
they had no intention of aiding Mr.
Grosmentir, nnd a loss skillful and less
observing farmer might have resented
the intrusion of tin- dogs, and might
have welcomed t: recent act of tho
Nebraska legislature for their ex
termination. U-.it the ingenious Mr.
Grosmentlr set to work to direct the ac
.ivities of tho dogs, nnd after four years
of patient application "he has perfected
his system so that his dogs not only
Infect the soil with fungus, but break
through the hardpan in numberless
places so as to afford easy access to tho
alfalfa roots to the all-important wa
ter beneath." We may well believe the
correspondent that It is a most beauti
ful aud touching sight "lo behold Mr.
Grosmentir s town of prairie dogs at
work preparing a field for alfalfa cul
ture." It Is also, observes the New York
l'ost, important, if true.

dicated by this Btory told by the Chi
cago Tribune: Two window washers
were at work on the ledges of the six
tpenth story windows of a downtown
office building about ten feet from each
other. As they hung to their straps and
washed and polished the glass they
could look into the offices, where a num
ber of clerks were bending over ledgers
and books, ror a half hour they worked
and watched the clerks, who did not
move from their confined position over
their books. Finally one big window
washer leaned back as far his strap
would permit and called to his fellow.
Pointing in toward the clerks he shout
ed: "Ain't it strange what some folks
will do for a living?"

WIRE FENCE BUILDING.
Durability Depend AKoajether 1 pon
the Way lu hli-h the Anchor
I I'u.l Are Set.
j The amount of time annually con
: sutned In the repair of wire fences
combined with the 1& In crops and
iu i'ljured animals due to their being
! out uf repair we are confident would
foot up a pretty big total. A little
moro time expended, however, in the
tirst construction of the fence, so that
it may bo constructed substantially
and according to correct principles will
very materially reduce these losses.
One of the first and most important
requisites of a good fence is to have
the anchor posts so set that they will
stay right where they are placed. The
failure to properly set these is perhaps
the most prolific sourct- of poor fences
and the consequent losses therefrom.
There is much less strain on u fence
' tint is kept tight nnd in proper shape
j than on one that is not, because there j
is less effort on the part of I ho ani-
, mals to get through than where they
can see a moro encouraging prospect
A SfltsJTAXTI.M. ANf imrt.
of success in that direction. Such a
condition of fwnce can be maintained
only when the anchor posts are so set
as to resist any reasonable amount uf
strain that may be placed njKiti them.
The accompanying cut represents a
very substantial anchor. The anchor
post should be large, and the heavier
the better, although actual weight Is
of minor importance. It should lie
of sufficient length to extend fet
into the ground, where a long stretch
of a four or a 4Vs-foot fence Is to be
attached thereto, ami have a two-inch
block, the larger tho better, spiked on
the rear side at Its foot and one on
the front side just below the surface
of the ground, as shown In cut. If it
is a corner iost with two stretches of
wire attached at right angles to each
other there should be two sets of
blocks spiked to the post to corre
spond. The btuce post should also
have a two-inch piece spiked to its
front side just below the surface cf
the ground. A good heavy brace, that
will not spring, should be placed
ngainst ti e brace post and supported
by a stone or block to keep it out of
tlie ground and prevent decay. The
other end of ilie br.iee should be placed
:r-::in t the anchor post about midway
between the gpvinil and top of fence.
It is quite coliininli til see the bra.-"
placed against the tup nf the anchor
post, but placed ;n this manner i' arts
as a levi r to liif the anchor pot our
of the ground. A wire is next passed
round the brace panticl from foot uf
anchor to tup of brace post and twisted
as shown in cut. Twelve feet is a very
good length for the in e paini'd; a
longer oiip requires a heavier brace to
secure a given strength and too short
a pannel makes the brace too sleep.
The wires should be drawn up well,
but not too tight, as this will Injure
the texture of the wire. This is espe
cially true in the case of sincle strand
wire. In cable wire the twist will
yield to any overstrain. Staples should
not be driven tight, as is often done,
but left so the wire can have free
movement from end to end. If the
wire gets a little slack at any time it
can then be tightened by hitching on
to either end. If nn animal runs Into
such a fence with great force the wires
will yield throughout their whole
length like a spring, and as the body
is thrown back they return to their
former position, and may show but
little change from their former con
dition, whllo the same impact against
a fence with staples driven tightly
would be sustained by that immediate
section of the fence. The wires, if not
broken, would be stretched and in
jured in texture and left hanging so
that Immediate repairs would be nec
essary. Even wHs a mild Impact that
will do little Injury to the wire it is
drawn through the staples which are
too tight to allow it to return and it
hangs there loose and out of condition
until rcpairedt-Pralrie Farmer.
Bet Time for ('aponlilnii.
The best time to caponlze is when the
cockerels are about three months old.
It is not feasible to do it after a cockerel
Decomes mature, as tho proportion of
deaths, culls and slips is much greater
than with the younger birds. Capons
grow rapidly and matffrs early, as they
are quiet and peaceable. Their flesh re
mains soft and juicy like that of a young
chicken, and as a rule, they bring con
siderably more per pound than natural
birds. They are most in demand from
February to June and are not commonly
marketed until from ten- to fourteen
months of age. Capons make more
weight for the feed they eat than any
ether fowls, as their only ambition is to
eat and rest, two things which are fa
vorable to the production of fat and
growth. Orange Judd Farmer.
Give the smaller calves a little feed
of whole oats every day. You will b
surprised at the way they go at them.

CLEVER ILLUSTRATION
WITH CONCLUSIVE PROOF.
There is an old formula in philosophy
which says that no two tilings t-iin oc
cupy the same place at the same time.
As a simple illustration, drive a nail in
to a board ami you will find with every
troke of the hummer, the nail will force
aside the particles of wood into which it
is Win driven, finally making u place
for itself, and proving that the nail Bml
the wood do not occupy the same place
at the same time.
