While great fortunes have put it in the power of man to acquire land in great tracts, nature has placed a limit on the ability of even the most capable to manage it properly if it exceed the di mensions which reason and com mon sense would dictate. It might easily happen, for instance, that one of our modern million aires should purchase a tract as large as one of our smaller states; and yet the man does not live Who could manage a farm the size of the smallest county in the. smallest state, in such a way as to get even moderately good re sults from the whole of it. By a farm is, of course, meant a tract of land suitable for general agri cultural, and not a pasture range, which is rightly held in much larger areas. But be the land tillable, pasture, or woodland, the standard of conduct for 1 him . who assumes its";" ownership and management is precisely the same. "Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed and the tree yielding fruit;" see that you do not hinder it: do do not take the land out of com mission; this law is written large in the evident purposes of nature and the needs of the world, and it lays upon the landowner an obligation so sacred and so im perative that it not only demands - his best powers - of mind and body, "but forbids him to under take more than he can carry out For he has assumed the kingship of a portion of the universe; he is dealing directly with the forces of nature and of evolution, A SENATOR OF RIGHT CONCEPT. During the debate on .the tar iff bill in the senate, Senator Gore, of Oklahoma, refused to Vote for a high tariff on oil though urged to do so by the oi producers of his state. Explain ing his refusal, he said; "I confess there is a good deal of human nature in me. I wish that this cup might pass from my lips. Many of the independ ent producers in the state of Ok 11 11 lanoma are my personal ana po liti-ial friends. They would ren der me any possible service, and I would reciprocate. I would render them any possible service that I could without violence to my conscience and my convictions, Perhaps my attitude on this oo casion is attributable rather to verdure them to virture. Per haps when I have grown older in statecraft, and in political fine ness, i may reverse both my views and my policies. Mr. Presi dent, I am not unaware, that may now be making a serious, fatal political mistake, I am not unaware that I may , be ordering a political casket. ' I am not una ware that I .may be, like the an fcient queen, lighting my own fun eral pyre. But, sir, I shall never According to a Hindoo legend this is the proper origin of wo man. Twashtri, the god Vulcan of the Hindoo mythology, created the world, but on his commenc ing to create woman he discover ed that for man he had exhaust ed all his creative material, and that not one solid element had been left. This, of course, great- y perplexed Twashtri and caused him to fall into a profound medi tation. When he arose from it he proceeded as follows. He took: The roundness of the moon. The undulating curve of the serpent. , . The graceful twist of the creeping plant. The light shivering of the grass-blade and the slenderness of the willow. The velvet of the flowers. The. lightness of the feather. The gentle gaze of the doe. The frolicsomeness of the dancing sunbeam. . The tears of the cloud. The inconsistency of the wind. The timidity of the hare. The vanity of the peacock. The hardness of the diamond. The cruelty of the tiger. The chill of the snow. The cackling of the parrot. The cooing of the turtle dove. All these mixed together and brmed a woman. each one with a personal marker. Within a few days the farms will be divided into five and ten acre tracts, when the real work of he Orchard Company will begin. It is the intention of these people. so our information goes, to place the ground in first-class condition and then to plant all that is suit able to apple trees. As there is 600 acres of such . ground, the task will be no small one, and some little time and a large crew of laborers will be required to reach the desired results. How ever, the land, when once put in shape, , will present a fine appear ance and will no doubt find ready sale when put on the market.

NOT TOO GOOD A Missouri editor gives his readers the following good ad vice: "Whatever you do, brother, don't get too good. There is a piety thatis depressing, - and which immediatly breeds suspi cion and distrust. Most eyery mannas his faults and if our secret acts and thoughts, or even those things people know about us, out wmcn we tnmK tney don't know about tis, were held up to the- public, we would shrink, cut to the quick, and flee and hide our moral and spiritual nakedness. "Some of us -get drunk, and that's bad; some of us are adult erers, and that's bad;, some of us lie like dogs, and that's worse; some peddle vile talk, and that's worse, and some of us love money better than we do. truth, honor and goodness, and that's worse; some of us cheat, steal and dodge our taxes, and that's worser" still, - though among the elect it is sometimes - consid ered a virtue. . "But the crowning sin of all this is a hard, unmoving heart and a soul without charity for the frailties of others, which re joices when others are crucified and which attempts to hide its secret joy with sniffling and pious deprecation. Men , dislike such people, and God despises them. No, whatever you do, aon t get too gooa. Jtieaven is going to be a big surprise party to most of us."
