When you make a present of a periodical to a friend or a family you are really selecting a companion to influence them for good or ill during a whole year. If the acquaintances of your sons and daughters v. ere to ’ talk to them aloud as some periodi cals talk to them silently, how quick- i ly you would forbid the companion ship! In the one case as in he oth er, the best course is to supplant the injurious with something equally at tractive and at the same time ‘'worth while.” A food can be wholesome and utterly distasteful. Reading can be made so, too. But The Youth's Companion not only nourish s the mind, but delights it, just like that ideal human associate whom you would choose. The Youth’s Compan ion fills that place now in more than half a million homes. Can you not think of another family in which it is not now known where it would b • joyfully welcomed? If the $1.75 for the 1910 Volume is sent now, the new subscriber will be entitled to all the rema’ning issues of. 1909; also the Companion's “Vene-| tian” Calender for 1910, lithographed - in thirteen colors of gold.

A farm is likely to be especially adapted to some particular line of work, and the farmer himself is like ly to be able to do one kind of farm ing better than any other kind. As ' a general rule,’ it will pay the farmer ito specialize—that is, to have some i one crop or some one kind of stock ; ' which is made the main object of l his farming, and to which the other i branches of farm work are subsidi ary. If a man wishes to be a cotton I farmer, he should plan to give bis i cotton every possible advantage, and his other crops should be laid cm | with a view to this end. If he is a : trucker, the trucking crop should be the central figure around which hi ■ other operations are arranged. .'' lie is a dairyman, the crops lie raise and the other stock which he keeps i should be disposed and handled 1 with reference to the dairy work. — | Progressive Farmer. ————— Many persons find themselves as- I fected with a persistent cough after lan attack of influenza.

State Press Supt. More than half of the state of Ida ho is now' dry, recent elections in seven counties having resulted in five i for the dry coluin and two for the wet. Os the twenty-three counties in Idaho thirteen are now under prohibi tion and three more are confident ly counted upon in the near future, . Statewide prohibition will be the is sue in the next campaign one year; hence. One Idaho town has never admit ' ted the saloon. It is two years old ] and has a population of 2,500. When | the sale of lots was first opened one ' : of them was promptly bought by the , liquor trade and a stock of "wet goods” shipped in at once so as to , open up business as soon as the li cense could be obtained. But the j people of the community presented ] a strong petition to the commission ’ ers against the granting if a license and it was refused. The bar-keeper packed up and moved on. saying re-; gretfully, "There is a fine class of i young men here that would have giv- ■ . en us a good trade.” i Many editorial writers deplore the ■ agitation, recrimination, and loss of i I time from business incident to prohi- | ' bition elections. It is just as much a ! i mistaken idea as to say that a person 1 in desperate need of a surgical opera- [ ! tion should not get excited over it | i and go to a hospital and be operated upon, making the best provision for J the care of his business meanwhile ; that he can. It is kill or cure case —saloons will ruin the country if the country does not ruin them. Every bit of the sacrifice and trouble given to the advocacy of a just cause is well worth while, whether the immediate : issue is won or lost. Its educative effect is far-reaching and wholesom . The people can bo hood-winked and fooled sometimes but not ail the time V, hat the liquor Interest begs and prays and preaches for all the time is quiet, quiet, quiet. It is just wh o the cook said to the eels she was bi 11- Ing alive; they would keep fobbing j up in the pot, so she struck them on, the head wilh her spoon, crying. ; “Drat you, be quiet.” The roper,. of the French Minis. of Justice in regard to crimes during I 1907 has just been published. There] was an increase in murders over the i I previous year of 2:.’ per cent, and ]of unintentional manslaughter of 17 I per cent. This increase is attribut ied to alcoholism. The largest part lof the report is taken up with the relation between alcoholism and crim inality. Parisian magistrates arc now required to record on a special report blank, whenever a crime or a i breach of the place is brought to I their knowledge, first, if the offence J was committed under the influence lof liquor, and second if the accused ’is a confirmed alcoholic or an oc ' casional drunkard. The proportion Icf parricides reported under the in fluence of liquor is 29 per cent; man ; slaughter 24 per cent; murders 21 per cent. If the proportion of con i firmed alcoholics and occasional drunkards among those accused of ! crime is calculated it is found that 1 out of every 100 accused of parricide there are 31 alcoholics; among those accused of rape and offenses against decency, the proportion is 33 per cent. And yet some people com placently assure us that in wine drinking France and beer-drinking Germany there are no drunkards! The liquor interests have made elections a study for many years, past, because they realize that the existence of their business depends ■ upon the results. They are well nigh perfect in the art of manipulation now, while the temperance people arc still playing the part of novices. They never begin a campaign in time; they are not sufficently famil iar with election laws to prevent making mistakes; and they are not' on familiar ground anyway. Most o. j the best men in the country hole! [ . themselves aloof from politics be cause of the graft, corruption mid-1 slinging, and general unpleasantness ' mixed up with it. But. it is never- ■ tireless their plain duty to face all j this and use their franchise for the ! good of the home and the communi ' ty. The man who can vote and doe:; 1 not vote for any reason which be can overcome is the betrayer of a sacred i trust. It is any wonder that politics are dirty when clean men keep out out of them? If we had many men like Judge Lindsay of Denver, what a revolution could be accomplished! But there are thousands of men who are waking up to their civic duty and discrediting the old narrow-minded ■ contemptible object in life of “get- ; ting rich by attending to th< ir own | i business” merely. All honor to the I brave and honest men who are living up to the standard of their own con sciences and sacrificing their own ease and comfort that righteousness may prevail. They are the real Bul wark; of our liberties. Children Cry FOR FLETCHER’S CASTO RIA IN MEMORY / On November 28, 1909, the death angel visited the home of Mr. and ■ Mrs. Felton Ballard and took away on their snowy wings the spveet spirit ’ of their baby girl, Sibyl She was sick but a short time, btit suffered intense pain. As her lit tile soul was not stained with the grout sins of this world. She bore her buffering as j Jesus did till the end 'came. We know not why our deijr ‘one was I taken from us; it might have been i that her soul was too pure to be mar red with the great tompations of this ■ wicked world, or it might have been i to draw the loved ones of earth near er to God and bring them in sweet I communion with Him. We can't un-i ■ derstand these things but we know I that the Lord doeth nothing wrong. All was done for her that lot iag hands could do hut it was,: done in vain. God saw fit to remove her up ■ though it seems so hard for father and mother to give up their pet never to hear her little pratvlings again, nor see her little smiles that'brought sunshine and gladness to their home. I We know it is so lonely without her yet it’s sweet to know she is witli I Jesus free from all sorrow and, pain. The bereaved parents can say they 1 have one treasure in heaven, ®ne j link of the golden chain that I them closer to God. May they be sub | missive to His will and say thy will ibe done. May they ever live and i I trust Jesus as to meet little Sibyl in that sweet by and by. We can see her as she sits on God’s throne and says, weep not father and ; mother fbr me, for I am waiting in Glory for thee. Written by one who loved her, Narra Ballard. Letter to Santa Claus.
