GUIDE YOUR CHILDREN RIGHT
- Bad habits lead the children off the right path.
Good habits make of them honest, upright citizens.
The start is the important thing. And you
can help them at the beginning. Teach them to
save money. Make them admire thrift. Be an ex
ample to them by saving yourself.
Given a good start, the saving habit helps to
form other good habits, and proves a powerful fac
tor in bringing up the boy or girl in the right way.
Start the children right. Bring them to this
bank and open a savings account for them.

Iter mini is like a fragrant Harden, where

And mignonette and pnnsles. row on row,
And bluebells play a little tinkling air
That columbines rriay caper; and proud,

Camellias guard a marble-bordered pool
Of golden-hearted lilies, pale and cool.
That float deep hidden from the noonday's

Her dreams along the garden pathways

Strays birds and bees in search of scent

WAKES ONLY THE RIGHT MAN
Naw Alarm Clock That Should Prove
Boon in a Crowded Apartment
s Building.
It really is not fair that a man,
obliged to get up in the morning in
response to a clock alarm, should sub
ject his wife to the Inconvenience of
being simultaneously and unnecessarily
awakened. Nevertheless, it often hap
pens that way.
A novel contrivance which gets over
this dltilculty is t"he idea of Charles
W. Waller of Chicago. It is an alarm
clock that will wake up one person
without in the least disturbing an
other.
Connected with the rlock is n little
hammer which, instead of striking a
bell, hits a diaphragm —the latter l>e-

went on top of the clock. The alarm
Is thus a drum-heat, but not loud
enough to be heard, were It not that
a rubber tube extends from the drum
compartment to the ears of the person
who wishes to lie awakened at a given
hour.
The tube terminates in a pair of
ear" piecea, which are wv-held by_.a
fork-shaped arrangement that their
ends tire clasped within the ears of
the sleeping person. It is no serious
inconvenience, inasmuch as the flexi
ble rubber tube enables him to turn
over or move about In bed without
disturbing the ear pieces.
VISION.
Who hath the vision of the stars hath all
that man may need
To help him climb the happy hill of high
and noble deed.
Fbr he shall lift his eyes from earth and
all Its sordid dust;
And lie shall sing and he shall smile and
he shall live In trust.
The vision of the stars—and then the
might of hope and faith
To lay the ghost of fear and dread
laugh at every wraith.
It Is a seeing more than sight, that clothes
with heavenly guise
The beauty that we look upon alone with
Inner eyes.
The seeing that la vision's dream beyond
the peaks that mark
The glory of eternal dawns beyond the
outer dark.

BURBANK MADE OWN FORTUNE
Started With Ten Potatoes and N*
Money—Remarkable Work With
Young Prune Trees.
In 18G5 Burlmnk cnme to Cnllfomla.
He sold nil but ten of his stock of
potatoes for $125. He llnally reached
Santa Hosa with less than a dollar in
his pocket, but with the precious ten
potatoes. Here, after years of strug
gle, he finally' secured a few ncres of
land for a nursery n"d for experi
mental work in plant breeding.
Just one Incident of those days will
Illustrate his persistency and resource
fulness. A fruit grower wanted 2,000
young prune trees to be delivered
within ten months. None were In the
market and the nurserymen all said
it was Impossible to produce them In
so short a time. Not so Burbank. He
promptly accepted the order. As the
season was far advanced, he planted
almonds In sand, supplied them with
Just the right moisture and kepi them
covered with cloth to maintain an even
temperature. As the tiny sprouts ap
peared they were transplanted in the
nursery.
He then secured from nenr-by prune
orchards thousands of prune buds and
as soon as the small almond buds
were old enough the prune butls were
budded Into them. In less than seven
months the order was tilled and the
seemingly impossible had been accom
plished.—Arthur H. Chamberlain in
Thrift Magazine.
