Under the stimulus of a brisk demand the ostrich raisers have mostly gotten into the hab it of breeding by artificial incubators. With rare exceptions all of the feather* sold in this country are the feather* of domesticated ostriches. There are but few wild ostriches left in what is known as the oetrich raising country. A few yean ago an idea prevailed that the “bird of the desert’’ could be raised in this country, and some elaborate exper iments were tried in the State of Texas. Those experiments, however, were not C ractioally successful, and their failure as been attributed to various causes. By some it has been claimed that the climate was unfavorable, while others have asserted that the ostrichers were not supplied with str h food as was needful However that may be. the New York dealem in ostrich feathers say that they will continue to look to the African products for their purposes. After the raw feathers arrive at the factory thev are taken out of the pack age-) in which they are sent from Lon don, and •‘strung." That means that the feathers are firmly attached to strings a yard or two long, in order that they may be handled more readily and quickly. Of plumes about fifty are usually strung together, and of Ups there are seventy-tiro and eighty, and sometimes one hundred and fifty, according to site. These feather* represent verted values.

No human soul is without an aim or purpose in life. The neatest success in life consists not in the mere accumulation of riches, bat in being able to acquire wealth with a disposition to apply it in snch a manner that it ahall ijp a comfort and blessing to oilier*—not in the mere giving away of money, bat in patting people in a wny to labor and help themselves. w There is no pleasure in oppression. There is no picture in grinding and ex acting gold from tbe poor; bnt there is s great deal of gen nine sat Maction in Ixnng able to offer steady and honorable employment to the many willing hands that have nothing to do. One of the greatest enjoyments of the prosperous business man consists in being able to comfortably provide for the many employes in his house or man ufactory. In doing this he is fnlfllling his obligation tc society ; ho becomes a useful and honored citizen; business to him is s rc*l pleasure ; he enjoys his successes, wheu they arc fairly won, be cause he feels that he deserves them. When a business man has tbe right kind of purpose in life he always enjoys his occupation. He feels a just and worthy pride in his prosperity, he is pleased with the respect and gratitude of those whom he directs and controls in the management of bis affairs, and he feels that to beuefltting himself be is ooufmiof a favor upoo others. — Ov torfnm N. t, hut i doe- £3 aim 1 ter, lifte will aim • « 41 ** Dou*i r mug^l - men u>L-_ j I _ i br» with?’ * ^ “ Then I remembered the note, and the fact that it was signed ‘J.
