Baby Chick Feed. in buying Poultry Feeds and especially for little chicks you must be familiar with the food stuffs on sale, because there is a tendency on the part of all mlllers to work off grain that is too poor to sell readily when whole. Therefore it is important to know what to buy, how and where. This yearI have decided to make a little chick feed, composed of choice grains and seeds, carefully selected and perfectly granulated and screen- ed. I believe it is better titan any bought from out of town (although I will buy any brand you may desire) and if you will call 1 shall be pleased to have you examine and compare mine with any other.

In the course of Henry CIeWs, the veteran New York baker, gave this advice: Avoid a man who, when he‘rdrinks. habitually drinks alone; who talks re- llgion downtown in connection with his daily business affairs: who (le- eeives his wife and boasts of it to others; who partakes of hospitality and talks behind his entertainer‘s back; who chews tobacco in a public conveyance: who gets intoxicated in public places: who borrows motley from a friend and then blackguards the. lender; who runs in debt with no apparent intention of paying, or who boasts of the superiority of his family. —-—__~__._______ ROOSEVELT MAXIMS CORRECTED. (New York Sun.) Jacob Riis, speaking to the boys of the DeWitt Clinton high school recent,- ly, gave corrected versions of the “Roosevelt maxims” of which he spoke in Philadelphia recently. It seems that, there are but three of them, and that they are as follows: ‘ First—Be ready. Ile prepared for everything that may occur. Second—-Every boy is entitled to all the good and hottest funhe can get. Third—~Apply your judgment to a question and having done so go ahead. Mr. Riis told the boys man stories of the president's life and haiiits, and said that Mr. Roosevelt's motto was: "It is better to be faithful than ta- mous." "I notice you never give a girl flow- ers or b oks. Candy seems to be your long an "Candy Is the best proposition." said Mr. Stlnjny. "You can get some of that back.”-—Washington Herald.
