ABOUT (iEESE. Here is what a Hendersonville boy thinks ab out geese : "Geese is a low, heavy set bird, composed mostly of meat and feathers. His head sits on one side and he sits on the other. Geese can't sing much on account of the dampness in the moisture. There ain't no between to his toes and he carries a toy baloon in his stomach to keep from sinking. Geese has only two legs aud they are set so far back on his running gear that they came pretty nearly missing his body. Some geese when they get big are called gan ders and have curls on their tails. Ganders don't have to set or hatch, but just loaf, go swimming and cat. If I was a goose 1 had rather be a gander every lime. ( ieesc dues not give milk but gives e ggs, but for me give me liberty or give ' me death." Then common sense lakes h vacation it is lime to stand from under. Saved l:rom Awful I'eril.

If You Want Cheerfulness in your Home you Must Have Sunshine and (ienial Hearts. In view of the fact that home touches and lives in all hearts great care should be exercised in mak ing it a cheerful and sunny place. The plant that lives in the shade is sickly and unsightly. The ani mal darkness is restless, trouble some and fierce. And what is there worse than a sickly, unsight ly plant, or a wild ravenous beast? Nothing but the man whose home has been cold, stormy and cheer less, with sun shut out till every thing above him is black, every room a swamp, every picture a weeping willow. He is worse than a funeral procession, with hearse and casket moving silently through the streets. These have a place and a purpose. But a mur muring, fault-finding man is the worse thing nature ever ordered or produced. Never happy, never allowing others to be happy in his presence. He carries a face as cheerless as a tombstone, and as gloomy as heaven's arch in a thun der storm, minus the lightning. His presence is like a discordant organ ground by the hand of fate; he drives a hearse through every social gathering, hangs pictures of gloom on the walls of home and hastens the death of the sick. We are provoked to sing in his pres ence the song of the sainted Ejliss : "Go bury thy sorrow, the world has its share; Go bury it deeply, go hide it with care. Go bury thy sorrow, let others be blessed, Go give the world sunshine, tell Jesus the rest." If you want cheerfulness in your home you must have sunshine and genial hearts. Plan to live in the sunshine; if there is a pleasant room in your dwelling, live there; if there is a dark room, shut it up; keep the childreen out of it; if you have troubles shut them up never take them into the family circle give home the sunniest thought and plans of your whole life and fill it with love, joy, peace, glad nesssunshine. A MI: AN MAN. If we were hunting for "the meanest man" we would select the fellow who tries' to lay his mistakes upon some one else.
