Flla Wheeler says that If she waa
asked to deflae the meaning of a suc
ecwful man, ahe' would say "a man
who made a happy homo for bin wifo
and children. Ho matter what lie had
done In In tha way of achievement of
wealth or lionors, If he has done that
he is a grand success. If he bus not
dons that, and It Is his own Tault,
though he may ba the highest lu the
laud, he is a meat pitiable failure. I
wonder how many men, in the mad
pursuit for gold which characterizes
the age, realise that there Is no fortune
which can be left their families so pre
cious as the memory of a happy
home."

be done, much leas, himself dojr the

and club them about the barn or yards
is not a lit person to own or have charge
of cowh. It la nat only cruel to the do
fcnseleiis cow, but is ruinous to bis own
finances, a reason tbat ought to appeal
strongly enough to his avarice to com
pel proper treatment of his projierty If
humanity will not bin. Ex.
