questions. Ethel M. Bounds, it
was ajbout the ninth hour that
•Christ died. Annie Porter, it was
a man ploughing that was dead in
the middle and alive *t both ends.
NoWl will ask a few questions.

They think tb#y
whw they m*et any
horn they think don’t have
aa much w they, they turn up
their no*** and pretend they don’t
ait you. Uousiu* don’t, be that
fay, even if you are well off, or
rifil, because that doesn't do any
good at all. It doe* barm. * It
niake* people dialike you. Every
body ought to have an education*
but sometime* people who are
poorer than other*, can’t get an
education easily. If they would
work for one, they might get it.
Lincoln was as poor as Job’s tur
key, but he got an education by
working hard. He would often
go and split rails and make a lit
tle money to go to" school on.
You see Lincoln was a poor farm
er’s boy, but became president of
the United States. If you don’t
succeed at first, try, try again.
Some ehildreniddn’t like, to go to
school. Most ohildrsh, the larger
they get, the mow they like to go
Jjo school, but some don’t. TW
think Because their lessons are a
little hard they "can’t learn. them,
and they don’t try. . Will some of
the cousins be so kind as to send
me the words of Baggage Coach
Ahead and Kathleen. Your friend,

Calling in at Watson’s store the
other day, we were so, completely
captivated by the handsome dis
play of Lowuey’s fine oahdiss,
that we silently mused over our
boyhood days when we couldn’t
get candy to eat—couldn’t get
Lowney’s then. By the by, go

Gentlemen:— I
This is to certify that I have
(used ‘’Cerealite” for a number ol
years and have sold it for the past
three years and I, myself, find it
to be equal to, if not better in
many respects than Nitrate Soda.
My nest cuevouinTS are w -
use it again this year. On my ,
crops 1 used it on wheat, oats and
cotton, and for every dollar I in
vested in “Cerealite I am sure it
paid me $2.50. I prefer “Cerea^
lite” as a top dressing to Nitrate
Soda even if the good! were the i
same price; • <
