f The Boy of Dreams Will be A 'I'lue Mini If you chide a child for day lug, you may be acting wisely, but you may also be making a mistake. Dreams are not alt idle. Every great achievement is a dream come true. Every doer of great deeds has first dreamer of those deeds. The child with dream filled eyes will probably become the man or "mnan with hands and hours filled with performances. The dream stage seems to be as in evitable a stage of promising child hood as measles or croup—a nuisance, but a necessary one. Day dreams are the processes of evolving, out of a nebula of desires, some fixed star of ambition. Often day dreaming is a state not to be dream-1 despised, but to be encouraged. The child who, tired of riynp and book and companions, lies on' his back in the grass long midsummer days, his nands behind his head and his half- clostd eyes following some drifting cloud, is not s mere time waster, t'n- ier the tcusoltd head, behind the ■unburned forehead, thoughts pro roeusing into purposes. Drifting ideas i e becoming fixed ideas. He is prac ticing the always useful art of con centration. Every great or brilliant act has ueen preceded by some hour of re flection. The real deed is the resolu tion made in the hour nlone—the hour of consideration, of decision, of past eleven real daring. The act that the wcrld npplauds is merely the epilogue of the mental drama. Children if permitted to follow freely their bent show two propensi ties. Most of them are examples of constant progression , in noise and action. A few keep their noses be tween the covers of hooks. The child that is led to become a pendulum swinging between these ex tremes. and stopping midway for a little time fer original thought, is the one who wil develop into the normal and useful citizen. It was a wise question the old Quakeress put to her grandchild who showed her a schedule of daily per formances. “At nine 1 study geo graphy; at half past nine, recite it. Tt n is the grammar period. At eleven, arithmetic. Then recess. At half 1 practise my drawing. Poultry Pointers CATARRH Fortune Telling Does not take into consideration the one essential to wom an's happiness—womanly health.

HALL, Principal at Georgia Military College Then I lunch with mamma, and—” “Yes. dear." The Quakeress had listened gravely to the careful sched ule of this scientifically reared child. “1 understand; but tell me, when does thee think?" Every child, ns every adult, should have some time alone to think—the hour for that, kind of day dreams that hear fruit In action. William MeAdoo, wno linked New Ycik and New Jersey by what had long been counted impossible—a rail road through a tunnel under the Hud- sen river—is a man not at all of the type the phrase "a man of action" summons to our minds. A tall, thin man of slow movements and laggard speech, with strong fea tures, but the eyes of n dreamer of dreams, is this man who has perform ed so tremendous a service for his city and his time. Wide open, con templatlve, far-seeing eyes he has— eyes that see opportunities through the veil of failure; eyes that see far ther than those we ascribe to the “keen-witted man," "the man of prompt action.” A relative of his told me that the deed that excited unlmpassloned New York and that rendered New Jersey wild with joy was the result of a 12- year-old dream of this dream-eyed man. "Will was always a day dreamer,” said the relative. “He would spend hours thinking of heaven knows what. If we called him to carry a pall of water or to take the cows out to pas ture In tin- old home down South, he would obey If he heard, but he was pretty sure not to hear. "He has heard hundreds of times the words, Will, you are the laziest boy in the state,' but lie only snjlled I amiably, because lie knew bettter. | We used lo call those periods of pro- I occupation Will's trances.’ When we [asked him what ho had been doing he would answer ,'Thinking.' 'One active member of the family always answered contemptuously, •Thinking! Can't you find anything better to do than think?" 1 I don't believe 1 can, for the pres ent.' lie answered, with his smile. 'Hut what do you think about?'* ‘Of what I shall do after a while,' b* al ways replied. "After a while he left homo, and we hoard that he had undertaken to finance a street railroad deul in Ken- lucky. Nothing came of that, and tlie active relative said, 'You see Will is a day dreamer. He should be more practical.’ "He went to New York. A cousin of his, a cub reporter, was assign'd to visit 'the tunnel of broken hearts and hopes' beneath the Hudson. Will read his story. He thought about It for u day or two, then he hunted up liis cousin. ‘Dot's finish that tunnel you wrote about,’ said he. 'Dream ing again, Will?' said the cousin. 'I mn a practical moil. I want results." 'So do 1," said Will. 'Then you won’t go In?' ‘No. The child who sits on the doorstep of the old home and dreams appar ently Idle dreams, sometimes comes back ard sits on the old doorstep again, after many years, and reviews big deeds ttiat have grown from those little day dreams. There is nothing that will pay a better interest on the money Invested than a bone , cutter for cutting fresh bones from the butcher shop fine enough for the chicken to eat. In many places the bone can be procured for tno taking away, at most it costs but about two to three cents per pound. The hens relish It beyond anything you can feed them, and the result in iggs is all that could he de sired, and. too, it takes the place of just that amount of other feed. For the growing chicks, after they are a month old, nothing quite equals cut bone. A machine suitable for cutt ing for a flock of from 50 to JDO fowls can be had at about $30.00; larger sizes, $12.00 to $25.00. Care must tic exercised when you commence to feed it either to hens of young stock. Feed in small quantities at first, about three times per week, Increasing the amount ard frequently as they be come accustomed to it. You who anticipate hatching out a good lot of early chicks should spare no pains now in getting your breed ers In the best possible condition so that a lit tie later on when you ex pect them to be doing their duty they will not disappoint you. if you have any changes of location to make, do not wait until they are laying stead ily; If you do, the change will cause them to quit—sometimes for days and even weeks. Do not alio:.' that loathsome dis ease scaley leg to get u start with your flock. It Is a burden on Hie fowl, to say the least, and anything that is a burden detracts from a hen's usefuness. II Is Infectious, although It may he slow In Its operations. It Is a disease that there Is no excuse for on any well-regulated place. Where it makes its appearance it cun be easily treated with kerosense oil. Take a tomato can about two-thirds full of the oil and nail tt to (lie wall of your poultry house; after the fowls hnve gone to roost take the affected ones and dip their shanks Into the oil up to the feathers, using care not to get tt on to the feathered portion as It will cause the feathers to come off. This should he done twice a week for at least three weeks, or un til the scales clean off. After this rub a little beef tallow on the tender leg and tt will soon heal over and be come smooth. Of course a leg that has been very much affected will never look as bright and smooth as It was at first. Look over your hens and dispose of those that are really nut of commis sion. Tick out tho blind, (ho lame and the hall; kill and use them or sell them for what they are worth. On ninny a farm there are hens that, judging from their legs and spurs, are almost old enough to vole. We think we near the farmers smiling all about ns. Yes. you know wo are about right.
