Surprise for Mother.
A certain mother, given to mysti
cism and ImpreBsIve UieorleB regard
ing hoY highly natural children, one
evening was entertaining visitors.
Suddenly came tho sound of little feet
pattering to tho head of the stairs.
The motlior raised her hand In solemn
warning,
"Listen." she said, softly. "Tho chil
dren are going to deliver their good
night message. It always gives mo a
feeling of roverenco to hear them i
they are so much nearer tho Creator
than wo are, and they speak so won
derfully, sometimes. Hush! Ono of
them Is speaking now."
Then, breaking through tho tenBe si
lence, came a shrill whisper:
"Mamma! Willy's found a bug in
his bed."

These words wcro spoken by Josh-

That renewal Is
practically sum
med up In tho
words of tho text.
(1) Lot us lay
omphaBlB upon
the word "serve."
Religion Is serv
ice, whether it bo
a false religion or
tho true one that
we have In mind. So far as tho nb
jtract question of service Is con
cerned, ono neither loses nor gains
by accepting Christianity. "Know yo
not," says tho apostle Paul, "that to
whom yo yield yourselves servants to
obey his servants yo nro to whom yo
Jbey, whether of sin unto death or1 of
obedience unto righteousness?" There
may be a change of masters or a
;hange In tho character and tho re
wards of service, 'but so far as serv;
Ice itself Is concerned thero la no
:hango. When, therefore ono Is en
treated to tako Christ's yoke upon
him It Is not as If ho had never worn
i yoko before, but only a question as
to whether ho would remain In tho
bonds of iniquity or obey ono In tho
kooplng of whoso commands there Is
great reward.
(2) Let us lay emphasis upon
"choose" Religion Is a matter or
choice, for men may servo God or
not as they please. Of courso ho may
compol a man to serve him, but ordi
narily ho does not do this, a man
would bo merely n machlno if ho did.
This liberty of choice Is man's glory
and also his peril. Ab Whlttler says:
Though Qotl bo good, and tree be heaven.
No force dlvlno can love compel;
And though tho song of sins forgiven
May .sound through lowest hell;
The sweet persuasion of his volco
Respects thy sanctity of will.
Ho glvoth day: thou hast thy choice
To walk In darkness still.
(3) Lot us lay emphasis upon
"you." "Judge thereforo yourselves,
brethren, that yo bo not judged of tho
Lord." Let every othor personality
fade from your consideration and
consciousness, and think only of your
own solitariness In tho Dlvlno pres
ence when "Every ono of us Bhall
glvo an account of himself to God."

SHEEP RAISING AND WHEAT GROWING
FEASIBLE AND LUCRATIVE COMBINATION
Ability to Utilize and Turn Into Account What Would Otherwise

(By W. F. STEVENS, LIvo Stock Com
missioner of Province of Alberta.)
As Bwino growing la tho natural ad

tural nccompanlmunt of oxtonslvo
wheat farming. Tho ability to utllizo
and turn to nccount what would other

grasses, weed seeds, shrlvollod grain
and Btrnw, Tho first four, sheep will
utllizo to hotter advantngo than will
any othor kind of livo stock, and only
beef cuttlo and horses will surpass
Bhcop In turning wheat straw to ac
count. Another reason why Bhcop should
appeal to tho extenslvo whoat farmor
Is that onco ho has Installed tho pro

tho way of soil packing, weed eradica
tion and the spreading of manure
Another fact worth considering 1b
that tho prosenco of a flock of sheop
on a grain farm doos not necessitate
n material reduction In tho area de
voted to grain growing, but on tho
other hand It nevor falls to lnsuij a
larger yiejd of better grain, and It
makes possible tho growing of grain
for a longer porlod of years than can
bo dono without them, or somo other
kind of livestock.
A certain amount of technical
knowledgo regarding sheep, iholr
habits, etc., is necessary to success,
but tho samo Is equally true of all
classea of animals, and amateurs
should acquire this knowledgo with a
email flock In order that their mis
takes do not cost them too dearly.
Tho first step to bo taken when
embarking in tho business of sheop
raising is to enclose at loast ono field
with a coyote-proof fenco. Additional
fields similarly enclosed should bo
provided as occasion requires, or one's
means permit. An effective dog and
coyote-proof fenco can bo made by us
ing a woven wlro fenco four feet
high and attached to tho Insldo of the
posts. A strand of barbed wire should
bo run along tho surfaco of tho
ground, and another about six inched

tho winter monthB; thoy will requlro
much moro hand feeding and bo much
more likely to contract diseaso than
thoy would If thoy got out every day
on cloan ground and in tho clear air
and sunlight.
In managing n flock of sheep It
Bhould bo remembered that a variety
of feed is Indiapcnsablo. When they
are on succulent feed, they should
hnvo daily access to dry roughngo;

Serious Troubles One Rem

(By MKS. C. C. THOMAS.)
Most fowls are liberally fat In the
fall, paitlcularly thoso that havo frco
range becauso thoy pick up so much
grain, weed seeds, grasshoppers nnd
bugs and as tho grain in the Held
ripens It Is a Btrong temptation to
over-feed tho poultry.
Over-fed hens aro subject to In
flammation ot tho egg passage, nnd
thlB Is a very serious trouble.
Feeding ground popper or other
stimulating poultry feeds to force the
laying Is almost certain to produco
inflammation. The so-called egg feeds
advertised aro many of them without
valuo, In fact they aro harmful.
When tho egg passage becomes'
congested tho hen may burst n blood
vessel In her efforts to expel tho egg
and a fow days later sho will show
signs of weakness, the comb will turn
dull, the temperature fall low and
tho bird will dlo.
Tho first symptoms aro tho droop
ing of the wings, roughing of the
feathers and loss of energy.
It is a good plan to keep the pullets
and the old hens separated becauso
tho hens fatten much quicker than
the pullets on tho same feed.
If a hen Is suffering from inflam
mation of tho egg passago, tho egg
must bo removed soon or tho bird
will dlo. Tills may be accomplished
by covering the flngor with vnsellno
and inserting It into tho egg passage,
moanwhllo pressing gontiy on the left
sldo with the other hand.

then tho passage should bu vs ashed
