possibilities of evil in his nature.
There are eyes which are luminous,

Men and women of the world are
accustomed lo judge human nature by
the expression of the eye. Many peo

can thus distinguish the false from the

DOES NOT BRUISETHE FRUIT
Picker Invented That Will Save Ap

Considerable Time. ,
Apples for packing or for keeping
any length of time should be carefully
, picked from the trees fo they will not
ie bruised. As the climbing of the
tree, made the picking a tedious job,
I devib3d a picker, as shown in the
An Apple Picker.
Illustration, says a writer in the Pop
ular Mechanics. . I took a pine stick
twelve feet two inches wide and seven-eighths
of an inch thick, and
hinged a two-foot length of the same
material to its side so that the ends
were even, and placed an old-fashioned
half-round tin cup on each strip so
that their openings would register. A
row of holes were punched around the
edge eo that a scft pad could be
scared in each cup. t
A rtout cord was attached to the
short piece and run through a hole in
the long piece allowing end enough to
equal the length of the long strip. A
piece of heavy clockspring was placed
between the strips to keep them apart.

SAVING THE GIRDLED TREES
Crafting Is Often Necessary Where
Mice and Rabbits Have Been at
Work How It Is Done.
It is often necessary to resort to
grafting to save a tree that has been
girdled by mice or rabbits. This is
done by forming what is called a
bridge graft. The wound should first
be dressed by. cutting away the rag
ged edges and painting the exposed
surface with lead paint.
Slender scions are usf d and are cut
thinly, wedge-shaped at both ends and
from one and one-half to two inches
longer than the wound is wide. Slip
the knife blade between the bark and
wood on one side of the wound. Start
one end of the scion under the bark
and push down firmly, then spring out
tM scion and start the other end un
d the bark on the other side in the
t;;ne way.
The scion should now extend three-fo-Tths
to one Inch under the bark on
e-:li side. The bark is tied tightly
over the scions and the whole, scions
and all. covered with wax. These
scions are to serve as a bridge
through which plant fcod may pass
and if growth starts on them it should
b rubbed off. They should be set as
el-'.se together as possible around the
-m.
Experiments With Strawberries.
Experiments made at the Pennsyl
vania experiment station show that
LiH strawberries are not larger and
betfer formed than those grown in
matted rows, provided the matted row
is a narrow one. Both hills and mat
ted rows produced fruit somewhat In
let ior to that frcm narrow matted
rows. U Is evident that different soil
conditions and cultural methods, es
pecially in the matter of manuring,
would change these results Eomewbat
more favorably to the hill system.

JUST WHEN TO PICK PEARS
Should Always Be Done Before Fully
Ripe, Without Bruising and With
Stems On Also Graded. ,
Pears should always be picked care
fully before fully ripe, without bruis
ing, with the stems on. They should
be laid carefully in the picking-baskets,
which should hold half a bushel
or so, and then be hauled to the packing-house
or other convenient place
and at once sorted into grades, and
either packed or shipped or placed in
the ripening house for future ship
ment. ' It is usually better, In most
cases, especially with summer fruit,
to pick the trees over two or three
times, although this is not absolutely
necessary, and unless the trees are
overloaded may not be worth while.
When the fruit has not been properly
thinned, and the tree3 are overloaded
many growers begin to pick the fruit
long before it is full grown and send
it to market. By this means the trees
are not only relieved somewhat, but
the fruit that is left swells to the
largest possible bulk; moreover, satis
factory returns are often secured from
the early pickings. This method is
particularly successful with Clapp's
Favorite and Bartlett. Both of these
varieties will ripen up tolerably well
when they are not much more than
half grown. The same principle is
successfully used in handling LeConte
and Kieffer pears, but these should be
nearer maturity to be good.

Best Way. to Arrange Plants.
Low ornamental plants arranged in

much moisture.
Girdling or ringing consists in re
moving a ring of bark from the trunk

Whenever a large limb, is sawed
from the tree the wound should be at
once covered with wax or thick paint.
More depends upon the right choice
of kinds of fruit to set than upon any
othe factor as to profit in the or
chard. Horticulturists have for many years
practiced various methods to induce
fruitfulness and with some degree of
success.
A few vines climbing up the porch
or over a side window give the dwell
ing an air of coolness, comfort and
seclusion.
There Is probably no fruit grown
that will adapt itself to such a divers
ity of soils and conditions as the

It isn't often that the fruit grower
is concerned about his fruit trees not

of most varieties is to overbear.

By Dr. Frank Crane
:i3D
Since the dawn of preaching we
preachers have been threatening rich
men with our right fist and extend
ing, to them our left palm. It la hard
ly to be wondered at that we find dif
ficulty in being taken seriously.
And our advice has been so confus
ing that we have not had much effect.
For now we exhort the youth to all
the virtues, giving as an inducement
the assurance that thus they will be
enabled to get on; and now again we
turn to those that have gotten on and
warn them of the danger of riches. It
might as well be asked, if riches be
dangerous, why acquire them; and if
virtues lead to riches, are they really
worth cultivating?
It may be well, therefore, to set
down a few common sense facts In re
riches and the relation of the same to
the moral values.
In the first place, money is simply
the token or sign of our common hum
an wants. It means power, power
over others, power to make our per
sonality felt. No wonder we want it.
Again it means liberty. Poverty is
a curse. It ties the hands. . It binds
the mind. It narrows the soul. One
who has to sweat ten hours a day for
bread has no time nor strength left
to develop the higher part of himself.
Money means also a full life. We
can gratify our cravings, whether they
be for beer or art, for Paris gowns or
Wagner music. With money we have
a chance to grow; without it we are
stunted.
Money, therefore, is simply concen
trated we might say canned human
value.
It naturally follows that it Is good
or bad, never of itself, but only as giv
ing opportunity to its possessor. Here,
then, we have tiie moral gist of the
whole matter: money is simply op
portunity. It unlocks the door and bids the
cramped and chafing passion go and
do Its will. It liberates desire. Hence
It simply emphasizes a man. If he is
good he can now be better, having
more scope; if bad he can, and prob
ably will, be worse. If idle and use
less, he becomes a living fountain of
Idleness and uselessness, poisoning
others.
So, money is like any other gift; as
beauty, which adds power to the per
son; or genius, which multiplies the
efficiency of the mind and hand; or
position, for kinship magnifies a com
mon man to heroic proportions, in his
influence on other men.
Now, the sole relation of morals to
power of any kind is this: that the
moral sense adds to power responsi
bility. The root of any genuine moral feel
ing is altruism. Given any desire, it
becomes moral as it takes a direction
toward the welfare of other people:
It is immoral exactly in proportion as
it disregards others and looks only to
self.
Wicked people, therefore, are those
who live, think, and do for self alone;
and that whether poor or rich. Who
ever says, "I would like to be rich,
fcr I could do so much good with my
money." should examine himself and
ask what good he is doing with the
little he has. It's all a matter of re
lation. If one is not helpful and lib
eral on $40 a month, he would not be
so on $4,000. a month.
In the ultimate realm of morals
there are no commandments; there is
only one test do I live for myself or
for others; am I altruistic or egocen
tric. The dawdling smart set, flitting
from bridge to matinee, from theater
to bedizened restaurant, from the club
to the horse race, are wicked; but no
wickeder than the better poor who
want to lead such a life, and who
curse their lot because their selfish
ness is bound and chained.
To the real man, therefore, riches
means nothing at all, as to his char
acter; it simply means an opening to
give vent to his character. And a
clear-eyed soul, that sees and realizes
what responsibility means, is never
eager for power and opportunity. It is
easier to be good in moderate means
than in riches for the principal resson
that it is eatr to bear a small than
a great load of responsibility. "It is
hard for a rich man to enter the king
dom of heaven," Just because a rich
man to be moral must be great. And.
unfortunately, great souls are scarce
among great fortunes.
The greatness of Jesus was not in
his wisdom, magnetism, nor ethical
perception, but in the fact that he was
utterly altruistic; that is. he used all
his power not to advance himself but
to help others. His tormentors un
wittingly told the truth, and stated un
knowingly his very secret, when, as he
hung on the cress, they wagged their
heads at him and cried:
"He saved others; himself he can
not save!"
