Wo should not forget ever that a doy in bin own life repeats the his tory of hlH race., He passes through the primitive age of man, and goes through the savage age before he become** civilized. A boy tit twelve Itau uil thu savago Instincts of the early races of mankind. This ago kas its natural expression, and a boy Ih likely to be a savage for awhile, hint, as he Ih llkelytohavo measles und inumpH and a few Other things that belong to children. However I he will get over thesoc<things. We all have, They did not hurt us. It WiiH the boiling over of young life. >Wo wore mischievous, rather than malicious. The average boy, like- the young savage, baa a dread of too much water, unless It bo in u wash hole; he has a scorn pf fine olothes; a high disregard of con vention of all kinds He always does the undosired and tho unexpec ted, and generally speaking no body loves him but bin mother. The uoighbors consider him a terror, the 4ogs and cats that do not belong 1k> him live in dread of his torture, arid as for 1 1 Ih teacher, the less said the belter. However, from Ktich material [ *?e great men of tho world have come. Such pestilent characters Wave eliminated thei rmennnesH in early life, and hecomo sterling men the nation... The mischievous boy is' not necessarily wicked lOlber- t ton st ,*t l*. . ! QtuivkK. | li<?Hlio'H. Thin is Jho age of the quack, tho inker and impostor. These nucceed. because their promises art* unlim ited. If*a man in nick ho wants a' doctor "who will promise to make him well. It' ho is poor, ho listens ?agerly t <? any one who offers to ?lake him rich. If ho is unfortu- j ? aate, any fortune teller In good e- j aough for him, if ho will only point the way to a (Jolconda. The credulity of the people is amazing. It in still more amazing that it seems to learn little hy ex perience. The dealers in* "gold bricks" way that if they once suc ?oed in getting a customer, they ?an usually hold lvilin to death, j They have only to tell him a new story to divert his attention from i his former experience, and then he | ?asily falls a victim again. With this condition of the public] ?llnd, is it strange that wo have ? ot only quack remedies for our j physical i 1 1 h, but that they are also j offered as a cure for all our finan cial and economic disturbances?.. This explains the gertisis of the an archist and the socialist.: This ac- j counts for the following of the red I flag. | The appeal is made to the poor j against the rich, to the unfortunate! ugainst the prosperous, to the fool ing against the wise, to the igno rant against the educated. If the. authority of the church enters its protest, then religion is defied and "Humility and Liberty" in written above the altar, as in the days of the French Revolution. If the law Interposes, then the Judges must bo recalled, laws re pealed and constitutions amended. The worst of It all is that many among those who are the most cre dulous are sincere, honest-minded persons.. They blindly follow the leadership of self-seeking disturbers In the conscientious belief that they are perform ihg a noble and perhaps 1 a patriotic duty. It would seem as if it. were impossible in a land whero education is so free and aewspapers are so plentiful; but what the school incalculates the newspaper eradicates in its grim' pursuit of favor with tho masses. So wo find column after column in tho daily press exalting the dis turbers of peace, and only meager paragraphs for the discussion of the vital questions of the day. Thoughtful reader* throw their newspapers down_in disgust, but they continue to read and to patro-< uizo them without a murmer or pro test. The yellow press continues to flourish, the publisher consoling! himself with the belief that he is giving the people what they want A few indignant letterra of protest from his readers coming in his mail ovory day would change his mind. The withdrawal of tho advertising patronage of those who look for something better and higher would exert even a still stronger Influence. Hut wo are all too busy or else the golf links arre too inviting. Let the people rulo! I CELERY AS DUCK FOOD Winter Buds and Root Stocks | Al c Relished Best.

GUINEAS ARE HARD TO RAISE | Young Birds Must Be Watched Car*- i fully Until Past Tender Age ? Of Very Wild Nature. CJulnea henB are among the hardest 1 of all birds to breed, chiefly because the young guiuea Is bo extremely ten* der. They are also of a very wild nature, and when one of them is lost from tho hwa It may bo oounted aa lost. It is advtoftMe to koeip t)ie young guineas shut up Cor a few days aftai they are hatched and feed them oa bread crumb*, coarse corn meal and occasionally a hard-boiled egg, ground line and ratxad wMfh the broad crumbs. After thay leave the hen. If the days are warm and bright, they are allowed to hunt bugs and worms and require little feeding. After they are feath ered out they need Ifttlo care, a a they are able to ahlft for themselves until ; the winter cuts off their supply of food. I In winter they muat have a shelter and bo fed the same aa other poultry, but must bo kept shut in when there 1 is snow on the ground, as they will fly into tho tope of treoa or on roofs of buildings, and refuso to come down.

Even j though there is an abundaace of other green vegetable matter, I fhould still strive to add somo cab ibagf* to tho list. [ It ia true that tiiere is nothing quite as good for tho hens as a grow ing crop, such as rye, over which they can range and thus combine oxcrciso with food getting, and every effort should be mad? to provide It, but often space Is too limited for such crops, and dependence must be had altogether on substitutes that can be "tored away.
