To attain simplicity Is to solve nine-tenths of the difficulties that now tretand furrow the surface of our daily Ufe. Why Is It the days are never Ionsenough, our strength barely equal or utterly unequal to the demands upon us.and the lite of the hour so proverbially Intense and over-strenuous?

Why Is It that all of these things. Intended to simplify, seemonly to complicate lire? Please understand that In asking this question I amnot decrying the complexities ot modern lite, nor sighing for the simplicity ot(he stage coach and tbe town pump, rather than the railroad and the watersupply! AH life advances from the simple to tbe complex, a man ts a morecomplex and higher form or organism than a nab- society It a more cgmplexand higher form or organUm than a physical man. The trouble Hes.not Intbe complexities but In us. What we need Is not to do away with the com-plexities but to master them—not to return to tbe simpler forms of social andeconomic life, but to meet tbe higher, more complex forms with distinct'ideals -and -well-deUncd-standards.-in.which the; spirit-ofsimplicity-Is domi-nant.

In operating, tlie. house plant, the division of the Income, tbe question.nfdomestic service—In all these matters and methods tho spirit of simplicitywilf define our standards and lead us to outline a system, and system willhelp us to attain simplicity. And If over all and through all there be felt poiseIn the executive officer of this borne, we may be sure ot our Ideal. Simplic-ity, nystrm and poise will surely operate to elevate the whole atmosphere andquality of Ihc home. They will bring about repose, without which the Indlvtdual home, has no excuse for existence—beauty which educates and Inspiresand that "sacred flame of Joy which throws a daxtllng light over life."

English Interest in Politics1JS ' By Edward Porrltt " £

'"main, silent and unused, like theapartment ot King Victor Emmanuol.King Humbert's father, which ts justss It was at the time of his death.

A Velnabie nefrrrnre.A firm of shady outside London

brokers was prosecuted for swind-ling. Jn .acquitting them the court,with great severity, said:

"There Is not sufficient evidence toconvict you. but If any ono wishes toknow my opinion of you 1 hope thatthey will refer to me."

Next day the firm's advertisementappeared In every available mediumwith the following, well displayed:"Reference as to probity, by specialpermission, the Lord Chief Justice o fEngland."—Everybody's.

more than -a century this Interest was Intensified by eachnew agitation for parliamentary reform, and with each ex-tension of the' parliamentary j»nd municipal franchise,extensions of the franchise, of necessity, involved the crea-tion of Borne machinery for parliamentary and municipalelections. But the machinery has not become so Intricateor so elaborate as to overshadow tbo elections, and tho

In this country my under.standing of the word politician iS/B man who Is closely, contlnUpUsly, a n i i c - .tlvcly concerned In tho working of the macElne, or who holds an office, or tsa perpetual candidate either for elective or appointive office.

Usually the mulch Isleft between the. rows, as close tothe plants as possible. | t thus .servesto protect the fruit from becomingsoiled during raln; storms.

The Value of Leached Ashes.This refuse from tho asherles con-

tains considerable quantities of pot-ash and phosphoric acid, which havea wonderful effect upon' exhaustedsoils.-We notice that When thin furtillzer Is onco Introduced, It retainsIts hold upon tho confidence of culti-vators, and they buy ashes everyyear, frequently Increasing their or

' tiers. ; The; onion-srowers alorir 'the'Sound make large use of leachedashes—buying sometimes by tho thou-sand bushels. This ts ono of the bestIndications of Its value, for that crop.Fruit growers are much pleasod withIts effect upon tho growth of theirtrees and shrubs, and upon their pro-ductiveness. It Improves the size andquantity of all tbe small fruits: It Isespecially benoflclal upon strawber-ries and grapes. Tho use of this fer-tilizer is gradually Increasing amongthe farmers who are more remotefrom tho harbors where the ashes are\landed. Their effect Is Immediatelyvisible upon old pastures and mead-owe, Bpread broadcast, as a top-dress,ing; but they.act more- satisfactorilyIf applied to the crops at tho time of

.seeding down. They not only largelyIncrease tho crop with which thogross, seed Is BOWU, but their Influ-ence Is visible for many • years after-ward In tho Increased yield of grass.A"tardier who has used ashes" freelyfor twenty years, upon a hard, wornernnlte sail, says thoy will givo anIncrease of hay, upon a meadow new-ly stocked, for eight years, and then,If the field Is plowod again, they willshow tho effect of the ashes lor sixyears loneor.

"For three year* I lived on medicines and thought I wouldneyer get well, when I read an advertlsment of Lydia E. Pink*bum's Vegetable Compound, and was advised to try It.

Why Bbould they expect a big per-centage on money Invested In gct-rlch-qulck concerns?

Why do they continually get "letIn" by purchasing goods said to beup to tho mark at a ridiculously lowfigure?

The answer Is that they aro^alllooking for something for nothbjf.And tho outcome In most cases 1*1that tbey get nothing for something.

The man who has not a great stockof ability to aell should not ask toomuch for It. The employe who Is continuallyseeking more than he. or she, 1Bworth will never get It—for long. Onthej-otber band/the employer who Iscontinually bunting for help at lesstban It Is worth gets tbe poorest classof labor—the most unskilled and tin- -reliable. NY.—o

The rea-son why "great grace was upon themill" was because love and self-sacri-fice abounded. No man looked uponbis own Interests, "but every man onthe things of others" («omp. 2 Cor.9:7, 8; Phil. 4:16. 19). "Accordingas any one bad need."

From every aide atwhich we are called to look upon hischaracter we see something noble.He Is small nowhere.
