KEEPING SWEET
It is not a matter of temperament
nearly as much as some people im¬
agine. To have a cheery and sunny
and care free habit of thought and
life is something probably to be
sought after and cultivated more than
it is; but there is a greater achieve¬
ment than this, and a much more
Christian and fundamental one.
It is not a matter of circumstances
or surroundings or chance happenings
in life. Some of the sweetest souls
—those who keep most resolutely the
bitternc.-s of envy and mistrust and
narrowness and pessimist out of their
scheme of life—have had to drink
most deeply of the cup of sorrow and
trouble and affliction. Keeping sweet
is a habit of the soul; it is not
‘learned lightly by very many of us;
but it may be, it ought to be, main¬
tained and persisted in even when
life is doing its worst for us.
Just to take men and things at their
best (perverse men and perverse
things it may be), to resolutely shut
your soul to withering doubt and pess
imism and fear, to ue brave and hope¬
ful and expectant of the best, to let
kindness and patience have their per¬
fect work both in your thought and
in your deep,all these are implied just
in keeping sweet. Yes surely it is
a great achievement, the crown and
glory of Christian attainment.
We discount our religion most ser¬
iously and fatallv when we uo not
allow it to train and disciplne us
this fine art of Christian expression.
We get the notion sometimes that
harshness means strength, ana try to
justify bitterness and unkindness in
the name of our zeal for righteous¬
ness and truth. But we seldom suc¬
ceed In satisfying our own conscience
by the subterfuge, and we do al¬
ways succeed in taking something
from the winsomeness and charm and
real power of the religion we profess.
It is a question if the lack of kind¬
liness of forbearance,of sweet reason¬
ableness that manifests itself in our
lives so often and so constantly does
not do more to dishonor the name of
the Son of Man and to discredit the
cause of his Kingdom than all the
other failures and shortcomings that
our lives do show Ji«».’ to keep sweet
in our own soul life and in our relation
wHii the world about us is to give to
our profession of religion a win¬
someness and vitality that will make
it a power for the bringing in of
the kingdom.—The Christian Guar¬
dian.

COWPEA AND ITS
VALUE TO SOUTH
How It Helps to Maintain Fer¬
tility And Improve The
Soil Also.
The cowpea is a child of the south,
a lover of the sun.shrinking away at
the first breath of winter or the
slightest touch of frost, but growing
green and fresh and vigorous, lifting
new leaves toward the sky, sending
out new tendrils in all directions
through all the heat of the long,
fervid summer days. And when the
soli hu:'’ become warm and the
breezes stir lazily .with their load of
sunshine, hov rapidly it grows and
how quickly it changes the bare
stretches of the upturned earth into
swards c.f tangled verdure, dense
deep glow l.g, fruitful, full of prom¬
ise.
Ah. wonderfully full of promise,
for the slopes over which the cow
pea has grown are not only rich with
the food of herds and flocks, with
potential fat porkers and ripening
steers, liberai-uddered cows and frol¬
icsome colts, calves and lambs and
pigs growing through all their days
of rich-fed contentment into early and
vigorous maturity. TVejr yield also a
stranger and moie significant fruit¬
age. Wherever the cowpea grows
there follows —as if in some tale
of magic from past credulous years—
a soil richer, and more productive for
all that has been taken from it.
Those fields where the cowpea gr< 3
and spread and fruited and fed the
hungry stock are, by reasoR of that
very fact ready to grow corn taller
and greener and more heavily laden
with dropping ears; harvests of
ripening grain, deeper and of richer
hue; cotton more beautifully covered
with the 6 nowy locks whose whitenes
commerce changes into gold. It is
one of Nature’s everyday miracles of
goodness that this plant should reach
into the air and gather from it the
ethereal food that is to feed future
harvests, and through these harvests
the beasts of the field, and man him¬
self.
Truly,wo of the south have despised
the precious gift bestowed on us
—the magic-working plant which, like
the fabled fountain of youth, restores
and refreshes and re-fretilizes our
soils, bringing to even the aged and
long barren fields a more than vir¬
gin capacity for fruitfulness—the op¬
ulent friend that with inexhaustable
liberality offers to the farmer on one
hand the richness of its productiv
tty and on the other the more abiding
wealth of an increased fertility of the
soil from which its sustenance was
drawn.—Progressive Farmer.
THE FOUR WINDS
, Life and Song.
If life were caught by a clarionet,
And a wild heart, throbbing in the
reed,
Should thrill its Joy and trill its fret,
And utter its heart in every deed,
Then would this breathing clarionet
Type what the poei lain would be;
For none o’ the singers ever yet
Has whollv lived in minstrelsy.
Or clearly sung his true, true thought
Or utterly bodied forth his life.
Or out of life and song has wrought
The perfect one of man and wife;
Or lived and sung that life and song
Might each express the other’s all,
Careless if life or art were long.
Since both were one to stand
or fall.
So that the wonder struck crowd.
Who shouted K about the land;
His song was only .iving aloud.
His work a-slnging with his hand I
