B 1 Uncle Sam's Nicknames.
B I Almost every state in the union has
H a nickname conferred upon it , and a
B few of these nicknames are so general-
L m ly known that the state is readily re-
Hj cognized by its nickname. For exam-
H pie , everyhody knows "green mountain"
H or the "granite state , but how about
L m the "lizard" and the "toothpick ? "
H Sbme amusement , perhaps a little in-
H structicn , may be gotten from the fol-
H lowing verses by identifying the states
H whose nicknames are given :
H Dear littie children gather 'round
H I And I will tell to all
H | The strange events that came to pass
H [ At Uncle Samuel's ball.
L M ( f The states that had a nickname
H Alone were asked to come ,
Hj But still they made a motley crowd
H At yankce-doodledom.
L Lm First in the ballroom there appeared
B A "Lizard , " long and slim ,
\ \ But a "Muskrat" and a "Buzzard"
L M Came quickly after him ;
B And soon the hall was crowded
B I With nicknamed people queer ,
B I Their names you'll find recorded
B Full circumspectly here.
H The "Muskrat" played the fiddle ,
B The "Buzzard" played the drum ;
B So the music was a squeek ! squeek
K squeek !
B And a grunting rum ! turn ! turn !
H ! The "Toothpick" danced a polk.i
Kj With a blushing "Wolverine , "
Hj | The "Tadpole , " mad with jealousy ,
Sat sneering full of spleen ,
While a "Bullhead" tripped a measure
1
With a lovely "Tarheel" there ,
h And a "Gunflint" picked a quarrel
LM ' With a "Sucker" on the stair.
H | A "Fortune-seeker" sought the hand
HJ Of a "Knickerbocker" gay ,
Hj 'j ' While an old "Clamhunter" danced a

HB. i In everybody's way.
H'l There were great men in the ballroom ,
H There were great men on the stair ,
H But the "Wooden Nutmeg" sighed to
Hi think
K There was no "grater" there.
Hj The "Hoosier" and the "Jayhawk"
Bj Cast many an anxious glance
H j Jn search of the refreshment room ;
H _ They'd rather eat than dance ;
H ! ' While "Hawkeye , " the detective ,
H { Was here and everywhere ,
Hn \ For he had information
B That a "Hardcase" would be there.
H , By a "Yankee" and a "Creole"
Bj j The dance was being led ,

Of course , this reckless conduct"
Shocked the wallflowers at the ball ,
Sitting primly all around the room ,
These "Squatters" one and all ,
Screamed to the brave "Green Moun
tain Boy3"
And the "Granite Boys" for aid ,
But these , though brave in battle ,
Of the wallflowers were afraid ;
They called them "Crackers" in their
hearts ,
"Fly-up-the-Creeks" and "Blues. "
And it wasn't really nice in them
Such terms to freely use ,
In the midst of the confusion
A "Gold Hunter" loudly said
He'd lost a lovely "Sage Hen , "
And had rather lost his head.
But a "Rover" smiled a knowing smile ,
And murmured , half aloud :
"What else could he expect
With those 'Foxes' in the crowd. "
And no the dance went onward
With noises loud and deep ,
And the funniest thing in all the crowd
Was the "Weasel" fast asleep.
Girls and Uoys.
"And what are little girls made of ,
made of ? " says the ancient rhyme.
"Sugar and spice and all that's nice , "
runs the answer. And the boys ?
"Snips and snails and puppy-dog tails , "
continues this bit of wisdom. "I never
realized what a difference there was
between girls and hoys until last win
ter , " remarked a kindly old lady ,
"when I gave a couple of little parties
for my grandchildren. The first was tc
be exclusively for girls , as the fashion
is nowadays , and the second for boys.
The party for my little granddaughters
was a pleasure from beginning to end.
Their delighted interest in all the prep
arations , the excitement in choosing
the favors for the cotillon , the sending
out of the invitations , and finally , when
the afternoon came , their pretty hospi
tality and instinctive assumption of
the duties of a hostess , all was as much
of a pleasure to me as it was to them ,
while the innocent gayety of the crowd
of well-bred , well-behaved little girls
was altogether charming. But the
boys' party ! Never shall I forget it !
On the supper table I had placed at
each child's place a little gift as a sou
venir , and had carefully chosen what I
thought would please them. 'What's
this ? ' exclaimed one little boy. 'Hi ,
Jack , ' he cried to the little fellow op
posite , 'mind your eye ! ' and he flung
it across the table. This was a signal
for a general battle of missiles my
poor little gifts were fired right and
left , without ever having been exam
ined to see what they were , and when
the supper was over were left strewn
about the floor without their owners
even taking the trouble to pick them
up. In the drawing room it was no bet
ter. We tried games , dancing , every
thing nothing seemed to amuse them
but to scuffle , and the state of my beau
tifully waxed floor the next morning
beggars description. I had to deny
myself to visitors for several days in
order to have the room put in its nor
mal condition. Certainly little boys are
born cubs , and the more manly vhey
are the more fearsome are their gam
bols. No wonder Mother Goose made
a distinction in the composition of the
sexes ! "
What a Small Boy Could Do.
A lad in Boston , rather small for his
age , according to the Prohibitionist ,
works in an office as errand boy for
four gentlemen who do business there.
One day the gentlemen were chafing
him a little for being so small , and
said to him :
"You will never amount to much ,
you can never do much , you are too
small. "
The little fellow looked at them.
"Well , " raid he , "as small as I am ,
I can do something that neither of you
can do. "
"Ah , what is that ? " said they.
"I don't know as I ought to tell you , "
he replied.
But they were anxious to know , and
urged him to tell what he could do
that neither of them were able to do.
"I can keep from swearing , " said the
little fellow.
There were some blushes on four
faces , and there seemed to be no anx
iety for further information.
Scowling.
Don't scowl ; it spoils faces. Before
you know it , says a writer in the
Standard , your forehead will resemble
a small railroad map. There is a
grand trunk line from your cowlick to
the bridge of your nose , intersected
by parallel lines running east and west ,
with curves arching your eyebrows ;
and O , how much older you look for
it ! Scowling is a habit that steals
upon us unawares. We frown when
the light is tco strong and when it is
too weak. We tie our brows into a
knot when we are thinking , and knit
them even more tightly when we can
not think. There is no denying there
are plenty of things to scowl about.
Rubber Sails.
A proposition is at present in the
wind to make the sails of ships of rub
ber instead of canvas. It is supposed
that if roped strongly along foot , luff
and leach , the result will be superior
to the canvas sails. Surely , however ,
a sudden increase of wind power would
expand the sail too much and cause
some difficulty in governing the course
of the boat. Paper pulp is again sug
gested as being an adequate substitute
for canvas. When pressed into sheets
and stitched together it would make
a light and effective sail.
The Burglar Said "Hist ! "
It was early Sunday morning that
Mrs. Frederick Horn , of Wakefield ,
N. J. , was awakened by a burglar who
said : "Hist ! Don't disturb your hus
band. " Mrs. Horn histed so loud that
the burglar broke for cover , but lin
gered long enough to take Horn's
clothes , "hereat Horn blew loudly.

Happy school girls have been eager
ly counting the days until the holi
day recess , when they will go home ,
carrying many dainty gifts of their
deft handiwork to the loved ones
there. Eager hoys from college halls
will go back to the fireside where anx
ious prayers have risen daily for their
welfare since first they went away.
Young men from the marts of com
merce and the paths of trade will put
the city , with its manifold tempta
tions and cares , behind them to find
rest and strength in the old country
home.
Middle-aged men and women will go
to the homes of their childhood to
meet again brothers and sisters in fam
ily gatherings , and to cheer once more
with their presence the belated pil
grims who still tarry below , divided
between the children who have gone
before and those who still meet once
a year around the parental hearth
stone.
What joy , what memories , what
hopes the Christmas time will waken !
And to some the merry season will
bring new pangs of sorrow griefs they
never knew before. Since last Christ
mas dear old parents have gone home
to God , and children who used to
gather about them will not go to the
old homestead this year , because so
much of the home that was there has
vanished into the heaven. Aged
mothers will watch for sons who will
come no more. Bereaved husbands
will walk alone the rounds of "the chil
dren's rooms , trying vainly to be both
mother and father in preparing the
surprises for the little ones on Christ
mas morning. And stricken wives will
do their best to keep the little ones
from feeling too keenly this first Christ
mas since the husband died , that "papa
is dead. " Thousands of little ones will
know as they have not known before
the losses which the year has brought
4hem.
Good men and women will thank
God for the homes behind them , and for
the good home before ; and wayfaring
outcasts will stop to think of golden
days gone by , and to wonder if some
how they will not one day find a rest
ing place. And so , with all classes , the
season should be one of tenderness and
love and thankfulness. Rev : W. A.

M'ipffj somehow Lenny
O'ifllii ' n Tras not Quite satisfied ; and
/Jn ! / when Esther came in she
, ( is ? , ' \ saw a queer little scowl
' - on the white forehead.
"Oh , what a lot of money , " she said ,
smiling , "are you going to buy a veloci
pede ? " "That's my Christmas mon
ey , " said Len ; "the pennies for not
being late to breakfast , and the dollar
grandma gave me , and my five centses
for bringing in wood. I suppose there's
'bout four dollars. " "Two dollars and
eighty-four cents , " said Esther count
ing It over.
• ' 'And It won't divide good , " said
Len. "This pile is for papa , and this
for mamma ; I'm going to buy papa a
ring , and mamma a red necktie like
Nor-ih's' and this is for grandma , to
sua w
o
buy a cap with roses in it ; and this
is the baby's. I'm going to get her
a whole lot of chocolate creams and
peanuts ; and this is for you , Esther ,
only I shan't tell what I am going to
buy. " Lenny stopped , and Esther
tried very hard not to laugh at the
thoughts of papa with a ring and mam
ma in a red necktie. "But there's an
other pile , Lenny , " she said. "Yes ,
that's just the trouble ; seems to me I
ought to have some of my money my
self. I can tell you I worked hard for
that money , Esther. "
"Well , then , this pile is yours , is
it ? "
"Yes , I thought so , " said Len , slow
ly , "only the minister said we should
remember to save some of our gifts
for the poor. I think poor folks and
heathen are an awful bother , Esther. "
And Len looked up defiantly , as if
ready to endure all that Esther might
say in answer.to such a shocking senti
ment. To his great surprise Esther
6aid quietly , "So do I , Lenny ; some
times I feel about discouraged when I
think what a bother they are. "
Lenny's fat hand reached out and
transferred the sixth pile to his
pocket.
"There's lots of folks taking care
of them , too , and giving them money
and things. " Jie said.
"Yes , " said Esther , "there are people
in the great cities who spend their
whole time looking after these poor
persons , visiting them at their homes ,
begging fuel to keep them from freez
ing , and food to keep them from starv
ing , getting them into hospitals when
they are sick , and teaching them to j
work. They don't do this for pay , but
just for the dear Lord's sake , and they

WHAT A BOTHER THEY ARE.
keep on at work until they are worn
out and die , and then someone else
takes it up. Oh , it is a dreadful both
er. "
Lenny's hand crept into his pocket
and fingered the money doubtfully.
"And there are people who go out in
the new countries , and live in mis
erable little cabins , and have scarcely
enough to eat or to wear , and no money
to buy books , or papers , or Christmas
presents , or to send their children to
school , all because they are trying to
teach the poor people about Jesus , and
keep them from growing as wicked and
lawless as the heathen themselves.
What a bother it must be to give up
everything so ! "
Lenny's hand crept into his pocket
and laid about half the money back
upon the piano , but Esther went on as
if she had not seen him.
"And then there are the heathen ;
just think how many men and women
have left their homes and their friends ,
andjgone away to try to win those poor
ignorant creatures from worshipping
idols , and murdering their childrer
and their sick friends , and leaving theii
poor old parents to starve to death.
Just think , Lenny , of the fathers and
mothers who have seen their dear chil
dren dying in these unhealthy regions
or had to send them away from them
to save their lives of the martyrs thai
have given up their own lives , all foi
these heathen. I think they are a
dreadful bother. And when , besides
this , I remember how much trouble
tlr have been to God , and how much
they have cost Him , I am sure they
must be precious or He never would
have given His Son to save them.
For if we would give all we have , our
money and our lives , we never could
give so much as God gave for them ,
and us , Lenny. " Lenny's lips quivered :
a little , but he laid the rest of the
money down with a bang , as he said.
"There , Esther , you needn't talk any
more ; that's God's money in this pile ,
and I guess I wouldn't be mean
enough to touch it"

"MODEL FARMS" BEING ESTAB
LISHED ALONG THE BUR
LINGTON ROUTE.
In Kansas ami Nebraska I'rartlral Farm
er * in ChargM of ICach Station Su -
cossfully KxporlmcntlnR With Western
l'rairiu Soil.
Omaha , Dec 8. The enormous crop
Kansas and Nebraska produced the
past year has given agriculttwe such
an impetus in these two .stales that all
other industries have in a measure
been overshadowed. This IJurlington
Hailrond company lias established a
number of experiment stations or
"model farms" in order to demonstrate
the advantage of the most improved
methods of soil culture and lead farm
ers of Nebraska and Kansas to new ef
forts in this direction and enable them
to become'independent even in tiie so-
called "drouth sections" and "dry
years. " Incidentally the company ex
pects returns from its investments in
increased and regular crops , necessi
tating heavy freight and passenger
trailic on its network of lines in the
West.
John Francis has just returned from
a trip over Nebraska and Kansas ,
where he has established model farms
at Oberlm , Kan. , and at McCook , Hold-
' re e , Alma and Iirokcn Bow , Neb.
Something was done in this line by the
company last year and with immensely
satisfactory results. The farms con
sist of forty acres in each station un
der the immediate supervision of a
practical and tried farmer of the neigh
borhood. Each farm will be visited
frequently by one of the learned corps
of I'rof. Campbell , who arc skilled in
the new methods. Nebraska and Kan
sas farm staples , corn , wlieat. rye , oats
and potatoes , will be produced.
The farming at the experiment sta
tions is conducted primarily on the theory -
, ory that the rainfall of the West is am-
I pie and abundant for all practiclal
J farming purposes , but that owing to
| capillary attraction , the moisture es-
I capes from the earth before it performs
its proper and desired functions The
new method will contribute to retard
the action of nature's law at critical
. moments and retain the moisture ,
j Experience has demonstrated that
the virjrin soil of the western prairie
is hard and dry to an unknown depth
However , wnere the surface has been
disturbed and capilliary attraction in
terfered with , the same soil , under ex
actly similar conditions otherwise , is
moist and mellow as desired * by farm
ers. On this theory the small grain
will be drilled in lines farenough apart
to permit cultivation. The surface
will be readily cultivated to a depth
of one or two inches. Capilliary attraction -
tion will bring the moisture this near
the surface , where the attraction of
the molecules is destroyed and the un
limited store of moisture distributed
gradually to the roots of the grain in
stead of passing rapidly into the atmos
phere. The professor's experts will
spend the remainder of their time in
speaking at farmers' institutes in this
and adjacent states

Watering : l'lants In Winter.
There is far more danger of giving
house plants too much rather than too .
little water in winter. During the ! _
short days and long nights , with very p
little sunlight on the soil it is hard to | ]
keep it at a temperature where the j _
plants can grow vigorously. AH the , i
surplus water added lo eis the tern- ]
perature until it reaches a point where j
the plants barcl3- exist without making i i
any growth. If the soil has much veg-1
etable matter , humic acid will be developed - j
veloped and a low temperature and '
this will poison the plant roots
