No clever, brilliant thinker,she, With college record and degree; She has not known the paths of fame: The world has never heard her name; She walks in old, well-troden ways— The valleys of the yesterdays. Around her, childish hearts are twined, As with some reverent saint enshrined; And following hers, the childish feet Are led to ideals true and sweet, And find all purity and good In her divinest motherhood. * She keeps her faith unshadowed still. God rules the world in good and {113 Men, in her creed, are brave and true, And women pure as pearls of dew; And life for her is high and grand, By work and glad endeavor spanned. This sad old earth’s a brighter place All for the sunshine of her face; Her very smile a blessing throws, And hearts are happier where she goes. A gentle clear-eyed messenger, To whisper love—thank God for her! Boys, you have but one mother ; care for her and spare her. She is not a beast of burden to drive along the highway of life. There is no love like your mother’s love ; you may not know it now, but you will some day. A lady received the following reply from a neighbor in answer to the ques- tion why she allowed her children and husband to litter up every room in the house, and the sentiment will find lodgment in the heart of every home- loving person in the land: “The mark of the little muddy feet upon the floor can be easier removed than the stain when those little feet go down into the highways of evil. The prints of the little fingers on the window pane can- not shut out the sunshine half so much ar the shadow that darkens the moth- er's heart over the one who is but a name through the coming years. And it my John finds his home a refuge from care and trouble, and his greatest happinese within its four walls, he can put his boots in the rocking chair, and hang his coat up on the floor every day in the week. And if I can stand it and he enjoys it. I cannot see that it isany- body else’s business.” Many a time a cheerful home and happy face does more to make good men and women than all the lesrning and eloquence that ean be used. Tt has been said thet the sweetest words in our language are “Mother. Home and Heaven,” and one might almost say the word home includes them all, for who can think of home without remember- ing the gentle mother who sanctified it by her presence? And ix not home the dearest name in heaven? We think of the better land as a home where bright- ness will never end in night. Oh, then, may our homes on earth be the centers of all our joys; may they be as green spote in the desert, to which we can re- tire when weary of the cares and per- plexities of life, and drink the clear wat- ers of love which we know to be sin. cere and slways unfailing. LOVE AT HOME. Let love at home always stand with her arms over us to help lift the bur- dens that otherwise would weigh ue down. Love lights a lamp that glows on when all might be shrouded in gloom. Love, sweet angel, strengthens the weary and steadies the hand that carrier cordial to the sufferer’s lipe. “Time will softly, sweetly glide. When there's love at home.” Admit and keep love ar a member of your household. Never for one mo- portant, even if much of the wife and mother’s time is passed in the kitchen. The noblest and the wisest live by eat- ing. non-poetic and common as it may seem. Think, tired housewife, not of piano-trained fingers as becoming stiff and awkward and flushed from mould- ing the “staff of life,” but consider what the members of your home are accomplishing. Your son is taking high rank in college and your daughter is to go as a missionary, and they de- rive strength of mind, frame and muscle from “mother’s table.” Are you not doing something indispensa- ble? Your kitchen efforts help to run all the machinery of life. What would become of home if in discouragement the mother and home girls cease their doings? Out of the well-kept homes come the noblest of the land. FORTHE BOYS. Boys, be industrious. The world wants earnest workers. God never in- tended for any one to be idle. ‘The more work you do the sweeter will be your sleep and brighter and happier your holidays. Take off your coat and make a dust in the world. But we would not repress your buoyant spirits or shut you out from all that is glad and happy in this beautiful world. We would like to pass an ordinance for each neighborhood to have a large play- ground, where the bovs could meet at least once a week, and enjoy a holiday, We would have it just as pleasant as it k shade t ment think that your doing is unim- ing on street eorners. We would have the vld-farhioned games our grandfath- ers played, and all modern improve- ments for developing the muscles. Bat, listen boys, we would not have any pastime you would blush for your parents or sisters to witness, such as scorch and wither every high and noble aspiration, degrade the soul and $re- pare the way for many of the sins that now corrupt society. Enforcement of Commereial Feed- ing Stuffs Law. The Feeding Stuffs Law of Pennsyl- vania provides for the inspection of concentrated feeding stuffs fousd in the markets of the State to ascéftain whether they are pure and up to the standard of excellence guaranteed b the manufacturers, and the Secretar of Agriculture is charged with the en- forcement of this law, which is now operating to the great advantage of consumers. Periodical visits are made by an agent of the Department into the var- jous sections of the state for the pur- pose of collecting samples of goods sold for feeding purposes. These samples are forwarded to the chemist of the | Feeding Stuffs control Department of Agriculture, at Harrisburg, who care- fully analyzes each sample, notices any violations of the law and repofts the results to the Secretary of Agricilture. During the past year over 300 samples have been taken and sent to Harris- burg for examination. The chemical .work is now going on, and when com- pleted, the results of the analyses, to- gether with such additional informa- tion as may be considered necessary, will be published in a bulletin and sent free to all interested parties. . Only one serious adulteration has thus far been reported by the chemist. In October, a firm in Westmoreland county was selling as bran, a mixture -f wheat bran and:rice hulls. As soon as the chemist made his report, infor- mation was made against these dealers, who pleaded guilty and paid the stipu- lated fine, and the sale of the goods was stopped. Between forty and fifty prosecutions have been brought within the last month. in ten different eounties, of which fourteen cases were sgainst dealers handling a feed manufactured by s company outside of the state. This brand of feed contained from one to four per cent. less protein and about one and five-tenths per cent. less fat than was guaranteed by the manufac- turer. The deficiency in protein and fat. the two most important nutrients in feeding stuffs, caused a serious loss to the consumer, varying from five to seven dollars per ton. The company that sold this material to Pennsylvania dealers has very wisely agreed to pay the fine of $50.00 snd analysis fee of $5.00 for each dealer, withdraw the in- ferior article from the market, or either lower the guarantees or improve the quality of this brand of feed. This ie an important step in the right diree- tion, and will prove a great benefit to dsirymen and others using the feeds manufactured by this firm. As a result of these prosecutions. about $2000.00 have been and will be collected in fines and analyeis fees and covered into the state treasurf to be used in earrying out the provigions of the Feeding Stuffe Law. This fact, however. is of minor importance when compared with the amount of benefit whieh will accrue to dairymen and other dealers within the state. Manufacturers or jobbers shipping goods into this state should properly brand and guarantee their articles as required by the Pennsylvania law, for the protection of the dealers of the state who are responsible for the prop- er branding or tagging of feeds they offer for sale. The Department of Ag- riculture is anxious to promote the best interests of all parties. Tt believes in mutual good will and honest co- operation, and will in no way interfere with legitimate trade. The Department will gladly furnish copies of the law on application, eet * REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS. Josiah W. Fritz to Jacob G. Kimmel], in Stonycreek, $2700. ’ M. Shartzer to H. C.

Yoder, in The Allegheny Township Idea .is ~ 90, RK.” A Somerset dispatch to the Johns- town Democrat states that a director from Allegheny township, in attend- ance at court, said: “We are having no trouble whatever with the vaecina- tion law in our township. It is regard- ed as a dead letter from A to Z. The teachers and the directors both ignore the law, and .hat is the end of it.” A very good idea, indeed, when a law is not based on common sense and common decency. We have a few hye- terical people here in Salisbury who have been nearly tearing their. shirts in orderto ave the vaccination” out- rage enforced upon the pupils of our public schools, and they have been putting much stress 8n observance of the law. But’ they don’t say a word about enforcing the fool vaccination law in the Sunday schools. They know better, and they know that such en- forcement would put hundreds of Sun- day schools throughout Pennsylvania clean out of business. That would arouse the churches into demanding the repeal of the odious law, and that’s what the vaccination fakirs are afraid of. HALF THE WORLD WONDERS how the other half lives.
