In this city some time ago a very efiective advertisement was exploited by a local concern. The citizens awoke one morning to find upon the side- walk the stencilled outlines of a pair of feet of unusual proportions that gave the impression that the city had been visited during the night by a legion of giants. The steps all led toward the centre of the city and converged at a certain store. Un- consciously one was led to follow or at least speculate upon the direction of the foot prints, and so the words, of Solomon, ”Remove thy foot from‘ evil.” suggests the question at the: commencement of this paragraph? When you find a man’s foot turned| iin the direction of evil it needs not *the foresight of a seer to say that he will wind up on the street or in pen- itentiary. There is no such thing as chance. Everything depends up- on the direction in which a man’s boot’s point as to the goal he attains. If he sits down and twists his legs about the range of an arm chair day after day his goal will be a corner in .the almshonse. If his tees point in the direction sum and gambling hell his fortune will be that of the needy individual looking {or odd jobs, the Neat-070d, red-nosed soak or the elm-W toil-t who Nor-under a» W at a bafl at Ma. The man who must be a big toad in the puddle or he won’t play in it is invariably a little pollywog, whose room 18 better than his company. Much harm is done many a good cause by the little tadpoles, whose exaggerated ideas of their own im. portance lead them to stir up strife. The world is impartial in its judge- ment. and the man who fills his Sphere will find it expand as he oc- cupies it. There is no need for swell- ing yourself up, and seeking to im-, press people with your size. They‘ know how much gas is beneath your bloated mental corporation. “Do you see that consequential looking fellow fussing about the platform,” said a gentleman the other day in a meeting. “If you Stuck a pin into him he would collapse.” There are plenty like him, not even bull pad dies, but swelled tadpoles. Fill your place. however humble. and you will have the respect of the world, and meat of all your own. When the "‘books”are made up in the "great day” there will be a revelation that will transcend all the history or fiction ever written. We shall then know the names of the men or per- chance the women who held the rapes that night in Damascus “when Paul of Texans was let down in a basket by the wall” and given to a needy world. The unsung heroes of earth’s mighty conflicts will shine forth with a glory the lustre of which» will not be enhanced by human partiality or dimmed by earthly prejudice. Act well your part. Be content to “hold the ropes” if you cannot fill the has- ket. Push behind if you cannot find a place to pull in front. Work if you cannot plan. Follow if you cannot lead. Take your place with the crowd if you cannot get on the plat- form. 1} It is Written. “Out of the abun- {dance of the heart the mouth speak}- goth,” and some would apply thls {same philosophy to the mind. If ,such were the case we might well f. } pray to be delivered from the “abun- aldance" that is proclaimed by some E;mouths. But the contrary is the -’truth, for out of emptiness of the 3 ' mind the ‘jaw waggeth. A full head .means a closed mouth. Put that B‘down It is a shallow brook that _ babbles most; it is the empty waggon - that makes thegreatest clatter. The .1 peeple who are most anxious to hear I their‘own voices are those who know : least what they are talking about.3 I It is usually the most difficult thing. to get men with a comprehensive‘ knowledge of a subject to express ' their views. Those who have Spent a lifetime Studying and thinking are very chary of talking. On the other hand, the less some people know 'the more they are to twitter. It is easy in a meeting to tell the babbler and dabbler from the readiness to "chip in.” The “wise man keepeth it till : afterward ” A good story is told of g the great Scotch preacher, John Mc- ENeil. He recently delivered a ser- Emon on the taking of Jericho. In ihis usual graphic style he described , the historic tactics of Joshua and the! ‘ host of Israel as they marched round} l the walled city day by day in solemn; silence. The preacher painted a! most thrilling picture of the great: army and its daily round and as he1 closed the account of the first day’s! lperegrinations and led the weary{ people back to the camp, an enthus- ,iastic member of the congregation {expressed his satisfaction by a lusty .“Praise the Lord!” Mr. McNeil paused, and in his comical way look- ed down at the interrupter. He pro l. ceeded once more with the descrip¢ tion, and at the end of the second‘: day the outburst came again in a ‘ “Hallelujah!” that could be heard : all over the house. The preacher turned square aroundiupon the noisy fellow and stood looking at him for about ten seconds. At the end of the third day came another ejaculation, and McNeil, leaning far over the pul~ pit. thundered in broadest Scotch: “Mon dae ye no ken there was to be nae shootin till the Min roond!” People who “go ofi” on the slightest provocation are generally three- quarters gas and one~quarter conceit. ‘ “W'ith the lowly is wisdom.” ‘ I J 1 1 z STRAY SHOTS FROM SOLOMON (From The Shoe and Leather Journal.)

Oats are. now all out in head ‘generally, and the reddish color ‘shown on them is beginning to hide .irseil with the growth of Straw and {may yet be better than was expected ia few weeks ago. Peas by all ap- pearance are a first class crop, so is ‘ barley, spring wheat fairly good, {all l wheat not much around here. Abram ! HOOper has a fairly good crop, which ‘ is all we know in this vicinity. §Stnellie and Dan McIunis have also 'good patches. Hay in some places liiever was better and in Other places inutte the reverse. Just depends on the cultivation and richness of the soil. Cannot eXpect a good crop off la field cropped for 50 years Without‘ [the least nourishment during that l time. Taking it. on an average there is a fair crop of hay . and would yen ture to say that some have far more than last year. Potatoes have a good ’appearance. and if proper care is tak- len in time to give the bugs a dose that will deepatch them in quick or~ der, agood crop may be the result (frost and rot excepted). Turnips look well. and if the hoe is kept ago- ing once more there was never a bet- ter promise of a good crop. Corn good. but we don’t see much of it around here, Flax good. Thistles too good in some places. Mustard and daisies are a sure crop, also. on some farms. We were shown some stalks of grass. grown on the farm of Mr. Wm.
