T'll give the neighbors a surprise, And other boys will ope their eyes, As all my treasures they behold, _ Their splendors one by one unfold )1 Roman candles I have got A plentiful and splendid lot, : Rockets that go up with a whiz, . And funny things that hiss and flzz; Rip-raps that make the girls all jump, And right into each other bump; A bright and radiant turning wheel, Bombs that explode with deafening peal; And, to crown all, a big balloon That, T expect, will reach the moon!

Ithink that e’en George Washington Would like to see us boys have fun Upon the day the bell was rung, ] And freedom'’s song so sweetly sung. When big men we to congress go, Great speeches from our lips will flow, And on the day we celebrate : We'll stand on platforms and orate; But, for the present, let's be free To spend the Fourth in mirth and glee.

Gunpowder may our fingers burn, Rip-raps, through mischief, on us turn; But what of that? We’'re patriots all, And long years after will recall How proud we were, 1n boyish way, To celebrate the nation’s day! : . =John V. Hood, 1n Golden Days

g - TAQ, s \\ —— I s4e® pON'T SEE AS there’s much o \\ / prospect of my ) 0 celebrating the N Fourth or havN ing'anything, \X anyway” & « thought Danny u Distin, as he _ threw the Bangville Republican impatiently on the floor.

He had just been reading a glowing description of the celebration to. be held in that lively town, and the thought that he could have no part in it filled him with impatience and discontent. ‘

|Generally Danny was not given' to looking at the dark side of things; there was not a livelier, happier boy in Bangville, nor one that enjoyed fun more. : !

But, poor Danny! for a month he had endured the heat and cold and pains of malarial fever. And now, altyouﬂgh the fever had left him, and he was getting well fast, he could only sit up a little while each day, and could scarcely walk from his chair to the lounge, where he lay all day, listening to the click of his mother’s sewing machine, and the canary's singing. : To Danny the best day of all the year was the Fourth of July. Even the wonders of Christias grew dim in comparison with the (firecrackers and rockets, the music and processions, and, especially, the noise and confusion of that great day. :

And, confidentially, I think most all boys-—and some girls—hold the glorious Fourth the day of the 365. Danny would have liked to read the wonderful things to be done the coming Wednesday to his mother, but he was too weak to raise his voice above the click of the sewing macine, and she was too busy to stop just then. And no wonder she had no time to spare, for her own nimble fingers, aided by the machine, were all she had to depend on for a living for herself and Danny. v After he dropped the paper, Danny lay very quiet, while big, hot tears determined to force their way through his closed eyelids; then there was a light tap on the door, which immediately after was opened, and two bursts of sunshine came in the room. One came from the cloudless July sky, and the other'shone around the head and shoulders of a little girl about Danny’s age—twelve. At the opening of the door just then the contest between the tears and Danny’s will ended in a sudden victory for the will, and a glad smile took the glace of the sad look on his pale face as. e said ‘‘Good morning” to Mabel Parmiter, the prettiest and most popular girl in the Bangville school. Her dress was not quite done and she readily accepted Mrs. Diston’s invitation to '‘sit down and talk with Danny” while she finished it. Mabel and Danny had been great friends at school and when he was first taken ill she and :uny other children had often visited . But Danny at first was too sick to be very good company himself, or to enjoy others’ company, and when he began -to get better other things of greater interest had drawn the children’s thoughts from their visiting schoolmate. 8o Danny was seldom cheered by a visit from anyone, Now he listened with pleased interest to the sehool pews, which was all on the end of Mabel’s lively little tongue. j s 0 they're going to have a Rgreat mﬁh month,” said Danny, at length, when Mabel paused to get “Well, I guess sO,” she said, starting in again with what was goifg to be st A T touu‘“!‘ the M&i”m m nough “I L ‘; to the L s R a Baoe ca E

tastics? They say there’s going to be a string of ’em a mile long. Andif you could go to the park in thesevening and see the fireworks?” 3 *“Well, I can’t,” said Danny, somewhat shortly and hoarsely. *‘l can’t sit up long at once, and I couldn’t walk to the corner to save my life.” “They might just as well go down this street as Walnut,” said Mabel, “itc would be a good deal shadier for ’em anyway.” ; “‘Come and try on yeourdress, Mabel,” said Mrs. Distin, putting a stop to the conversation. ‘Do come again soon, Mabel,” said Danny, entreatingly, ‘‘and ask some of the fellows to come soon. You don’t know how lonesome I get here with mother sewing all the time and no one to talk to.”

“It must be awful,” said Mabel, sympathizingly. As Mabel walked quickly home she could think of nothing but Danny’s hard lot, so different from her own. “How dreadful it must be,” she thought, *‘to be there all day while all the other children are having such good vacation times.” ; ; “And the Fourth coming, too,” was the climax of her pity. : :

When she reached home she went to her room and sat down by.the window to finish a book in which she was much interested. ! .

But it no longer pleased her, and she laid it down and went to the sew-ing-room, where her mother was at work. :

“Mamma,” she said, ‘‘he looks awful bad, so pale and thin, and they’re very poor, 1 guess, and he isn’t going to have anything the Fourth—” : “My dear child!” said her mother, ‘what are you talking about?” © “It’s Danny Distin, mamma; he'’s been sick ever since long before school was out. . Mamma, isn’t it funny some children should have so much and others so little? Now, I am well, and papa has lots of money, and I'm going to see the procession and have everything the Fourth, and fireworks in the evening. Besides all that, 1 have that five dollars Aunt May gave me to buy fireworks with for myself. And Danny hasn’t —a — single — thing. Mamma, don’t you think people ought to divide up and all have something, and not some have it all?”

“My dear,” said Mrs. Parmiter, ‘‘the things which are puzzling you have puzzled older and wiser heads for many years. . All you can do to make the matter better is to divide your surplus with some one.” ““That’s just what I mean, mamma. Can 1 take my five dollars and buy fireworks for Danny instead of myself?” .

“Your Aunt May gave you the money to.do as you pleased with, and I have nothing to say about it. Do just as you think best.” **Then, mamma, I’ll give it to Danny, and I do believe the big fireworks in the park will seem all the better to me if I don’t see any little ones before Tgol ~ When Mabel’'s brother came home she told him her plan, and &sked him to go with her that very night and buy the fireworks. - -

" “I declare, Mabel,” he said, ‘‘you’re a brick. It's a shame, anyhow, the way we've neglected Danny since he's been sick. And such a fellow as he is

for fun when he’s well. I'll help you buy the fireworks, and then T'll let you into a scheme of my own to help make Danny have a good Fourth. It’s a pity if a fellow of my age can’t do as much as a little girl.” “I’'m not so much more of a little girl than you are a little boy!” said Mabel, indignantly; ‘‘you’re only a- year and eight months older than I am, anyway.” i - This*was true, and Sam thought it was best to change the subject. ‘*Say, Mabel,” he said, ‘‘are you sure you can keep it secret if I let you into it?” “I know I can,” said Mabel, eagerly. “I won’t tell a person, honor bright, cross my heart.” As this was the most solemn promise a Bangville child could make, Sam told her of the plan his quick mind had formed while they were talking. ' What it was will appear later. The third of July Mabel and Sam Parmiter called on Danuy, and while Sam entertained him with an account of the last baseball game between the Invincibles,” of Bangville, and the “Invulperables,” of Clayton, in which games the former, but for the partiality of the umpire, would have scored a wonderful victory, Mabel beckouned Mrs. Distin into the hall and told her something! that “made her smile, although her gyes were- moist, and say: ‘‘Bless the children!” ; i fﬁ; morning of the Fourth of July everyone was dawakened at daybreak by the ringing of bells ‘and firing of cannon with which Bangville always ushered in the anniversary of indeendence. ‘‘Oh, dear!” thought Dan%g};ﬁwisﬁs&he‘FOurth':didn"t. eome for ‘a'month yet; then, maybe, I'd be 'well enough to haye some fun myself.” ~ After breakfast his mother said to ‘him: “I don’t think it would hurt you’ to sit on the stoop a little while ‘this Mavuing, e oo P of tor-

“Not. much; it wouldn’t,” said Dan ny, his eyes sparkling, and looking more like himself than he had done for many-long weeks. As Danny was sitting on the stoog “spoiling” torpedoes he heard music at a distance. | ‘““O mother!” he said, “there go the ‘fantastics.’ If I only felt strong enough to walk up to the corner and see them!”

His mother smiled to herself, but did not answer. Nearer and nearer sounded the musie, and, could he believe his eyes? right by the house marched the motley throng! When the last one was out of sight Danny’s mother told him he had better go in his bedroom and lie down awhile. He was glad to rest, for he was already tired out with pleassd excitement. :

As his mother expected, he at once fell asleep and slept several hours. When he opened his eyes and looked out in the sitting-room, he closed them again, thinking what he saw was one of the pleasant dreams he had been having. = L No wonder he hardly recognized the familiar room. It was draped with red, white and blue bunting. Small flags were fastened in every available place, bouquets were everywhere. In the center of the room was a table decorated with flowers, and spread with all kinds of «dglicacies. Around the room sat six girl¥dn white dresses trimmed with red, white and blue ribbons and clusters of pansies, and five boys in their best elothes, each with a red rose and small flag in his buttonhole, and further ornamented with an enormous badge. These badges were supposed to be the crowning beauty of their at. tire, and to more than offset the girls' tricolored ribbons. There was enough variety in their badges to prevent any sameness of decoration. Two were G. A. R., one a Mason’s kadge, one an A. 0. U. W., and one an 1. O. G. T. badge. ‘‘Hallo, old fellow, are you awake?” said Sam Parmiter, who had kept one eye on Danny all the while he had been there. fron : ;

“I don't know for certain,” said Danny, shutting his eyes, and then opening them to take another look, at which the company giggled in chorus. Then Danny walked out in the sitting-room and was conducted to the Boston rocking chair, the seat of honor, at the table, and the other children tools their places around it. Then Sam stood up and made a speech. He was great on speech, and always worked in omne wherever he could, which, as he expected to be. president some day, was good practice for him. “Fellow-citizens, ladies and gentlemen; especially Danny—You all know the saying, I think it's Shakespeare, anyway it's some one, saying: ‘lf the mountain won’t come to Mahomet, Mahomet/ must come to the mountain.' Danny can!t go to the celebration, sa we have brought a celebration to Danny. The idea was originated by Miss ‘Mabel Parmiter, and was enlarged upon and improved by these young men and myself. Papa, at my request, had -the line of march changed, sc the fantastics would come down this street instead of Walnut. Then 'the young ladies thought of having a sort of indoor picnic and Fourth of July dinner here, with ice-cream to follow, and,lastly, we all whacked togeth:

erand bought some Japanese fireworks the kind you let off in the daytime. which I shall proceedto do as soonat we have | got away with the grub—should saly, partaken of the banquet. Finally, after singing fhe ‘Star Spangled Banner,” we shall disperse quietly to our homes.” o : After the speech the banquet quickly disappeared. Then came the fireworks. Besides the children, quite an audience of the people from the nearby streets enjoyed the queer-looking animals and forms which floated over their heads. Then—per programme—the ehildren sang the ‘‘Star Spangled Banner,” gave three cheers for Danny, the Fourth, George Washington, and everyone| else they could tkink of, and dispersed. ' Thus ended Danny’s celebration, which, he afterwards said, was the best he had ever known. “For,” said be, “‘most gen’rally you're thinking of the Fourth and how you'll celebrate it weeks beforehand, and tben some:times it isn't as good as you ’spected. But 1 dién't ’spect this at all. I didn't look for lanything, and then it caine sosudden and unexpected. I tell you, mother, it was a first-class A No. 1 celebration if there ever was one.” And his motheer said: “So it was, Danny.” —-Dmo‘ig Frod Presa s o 0 . i Love's Labor Lost. s Brown —Johnnie didn’t' stay long around t\{xe old maid’s house.

AGRICULTURAL HINTS. RUNNING A HARVESTER. It Calls for Considerable Ingenuity on the Part of the Operator. * Of the various machines and implements used on the farm, there is none go delicate and complicated, or requiring the exercise of more skill and /ingenuity on the part of the operator, than the self-binding harvester. The standard machines of to-day have come throngh and are the result of such a long and thorough course of development and improvement, and manufacturers have followed so closely the same general lines of construction, thatone can hardly make a mistake in the selection of a machine so long as he is satisfied to stick to the standards. But the man who allows himself to become too enthusiastic ovar something “new and novel,” and invest in machinery . which embodies radiecal changes in principles of construction, may expect to soon have an out-of-date machine on his hands. While principles may be correct, a course of development and improvement is required before best results are reached in their application. | There are no less than eight binders of different manufacture used within two miles of ‘where I write, all giving satisfaction, so far as I know, and probably each owner could name/ one or more points in which he considers

But I care not how perfect a machine may be, it will never be an unqualified success nor add fresh laurels to its reputation when it is run /by a man without sufficient ingenuity and energy to properly hitch to and operate a clod smasher. A great many bad breaks and long delays are the legitimate results of carelessness, pure ard | simple, and he who makesgetting over the ground the one prime object, to the’ neglect of his machine and the abuse of his team, may expect frequent breakdowns and much bad luck. The saying: ‘‘Carg makes luck” will apply to running a binder, if to anything. If some little thing géts out of order and the binder begins to ‘“‘buck,” it doesn’t pay to get in a splutter and make matters worse by changing things at random.' Ihave learned by experience that the best plan is to keep a cool head and locate the difficulty before remedying it, or even trying to do so. Poor twine isresponsible for a deal of fussing in the harvest field. It is nearly impossible” todo good, even work with poor, uneven twine. The best twine I ever used was pure manilla; but so much socalled pure manilla is poor manilla, that I would just as soon risk a good, even grade of new, white sisal. As machines become old they usually prefer a little coarser grade of twine than in their younger days. Good reeling is indispensable to square, well-formed bundles, but no ironclad rules can be

L laid down to govern position of reel for varying kinds and conditions of grain. This can be ascertained only by experimenting until best results are secured. The reel should not run parallel with sickle, but the outer end should stand several inches forward in order to place grain upon platform with butts in advance of heads, as the butts are always retarded by coming in contact with the falling grain. Ibn standing grain, the machine should run about level. It takes but a moment when starting up a grade to tilt the machine forward, and vice versa. It should be so well balanced that the tongue will play on the neck yoke much of the time. Ofcourse this cannot’ always be done, particularly with the old five-horse stepladder machines, but these are back numbers now, and the new, low, sensible ones do not have so much “swing” in mid-air. Itis cheaper and more humane to carry the machine on its wheels than on the horses’ neecks. It should, therefore, be tilted back when the driver leaves his seat; if it stands long the binder may be shifted back also.—George F. Pettit, in Orange Judd Farmer. S i e

Treating Barbod Wire Wounds.

Barbed wire wounds are difficult to heal.” Like a wound caused by the teeth of a saw, th® edges being ragged, requires a longer time to heal than a square cut with smooth edges. The swelling likely comes mainly from taking c¢old in the wound, or the blood may be out of condition. Make'a salve of one ounce of calomel and a teacupful of lard. Mix theroughly and apply twice a day. Tie a loose bandage around the wound tb keep out dust and cold. It may be mecessiry to fasten a string to the bandage: and tie around his neck to hold it up. If the salve does not heal the wound' he'mist have a blood purifier.—Rural World.: Protect Fowls Against Heat. If the fowls must be shut up all summer in a winter house, with more of less glass to the south, it will be cruelty not to give them an opportunity to take shelter from the flerce leat and strong light. ‘The windows should be covered with cotton eloth or protected with & rude awning made of the same cloth, or with evergreen trees cut and mmmbﬁm«ﬂm{m& o the glass may be whitewashed.,

Mr. Lincoln Nelson, of Hartville, Mo., had an interestinﬁ experience with the doctors recently, and was on the verge of a Eaiuful surgical operation. He writes: ‘I ereby add my unqualified endorsement of your excellent remedy, S. S. 8. For six f'eg,rs I have been ' a sufferer from a scrofuous affection of the glands of n‘ky neck, and all efforts of physicians in ashinfgton D. C., Springfield, Tll., and St. Louis failed to reduce the enlargement. After six months’ constant treatment here my physician urged me to submit to a removal of the gland. At this critical moment a friend recommended .8. S. 8., and layin& aside a dee&)-rooted %rejudice against all patent medicines, I began its use. Before I had used ore bottle the enlargement began to disappear, and now it is entirely gone, and lam almost cured. I am not through with my second bottle yet. Hadl only used your 8. S. S. years ago, I could have escaped years of misery and saved over £l5O. If this endorsement will serve you in any way, use it.” - This experience is’ like that, of all who suffer with deep-seated blood troubles. The doctors can do no good, and even their resorts to. the knife prove either fruitless or fatal. 8. S. 8. is the only real blood remedy. Itgets at theroot of the disease, and forces it out permanently.
