HONORING BURNS. ‘The Socottish clans celebrate the An- niversary of Burns in more than 100 American cities, and in all nations where Scotchmen have made their home. He got close to the heart of his countrymen and to all the world because he was a roysterer as well as » rhymster. He sang songs immortal as well as songs of love and of demo- cracy, and he put into life a jovi- ality which was purely Scotch, and #0 Buman that it is worthy of per- petuation and of the admiration it excites in the Sons of all natlons. The history of the Scottish clans, who celebrate this day. is repiete with deeds of dauntless bravery, determin- ed and steadfast resolutions, and patriotic saerifice in the cause of civil a religious liberty and mna- tienal independence.” This order was founded at a mee(- ng in St Louls in November, 1878, snd prides itself on being non-poli- I and nen-seetarian. That the has grandly fuifilied its main mission is proven by the last state- ment issmed from the office of the srand chief. Over $1.250,000 has been paid out to widows and orphans of | deceased members in the thirty-two years of its existence: and in ad- dition. elose to $600,600 has been dis- pensed by the local clans in sick and funeral benefits. These merry Burns all the year and thelr eultivation celebrators honor by their charities of national toms and amusements, as well as by | the banquet on the anniversary of his Dirth and the recollections of “Auld | ang Syne.” The admirers of Burns everywhere ugres with his countrymen, that the ughman Poet, who In dess than 40 cars made such an impression upon the world, deserves the honors which true Scots every where accord to him. PRESIDENT MELLIN'S BILL. The presentation of .a bill to the egislature by President Mellin of the York, New Haven & Hartford raflroad for a court of commerce in- stead of a eommission to act under the public utilities bill which it is conceded will be enacted Into law, whows that there is going to be a hard Aght. before the commitiee 1o de- rermine which plan is best suited to the just enforcement of the law. As summarized by the Hartford Times | the functions of the court are as fol- AMENDMENT TO GAME LAW. Representative Hatch, of New Fair- field, has entered a bill in the legis- lature for the purpose of collecting statistics to show the aggregate amount of game killed in Connecticut | during the year, It provides that “There shall be attached to and made a part of every license issued after January 1, 1912, a blank form showing the daye of the month it is lawful to hunt, posses or pursue game and the kind of game that may legally be taken. “Every calendar day or part of a day on which any one hunts or pur- sues game they shall check with a cross in the square at the right of the date, under the column “days hunted” and if any game is taken or possess- ed the number of each shall be in- serted in the proper column opposite the date. “The town clerk shall, in addition to the regular license fee, require a de- posit of one dollar the same to be re- turned when the expired license to- gether with the information required by this act has been returned to the town clerk. The penaities for violating any pro- lon of this act shall be the same as violation of the license act.” This proposed and well intended law is likely to meet with considerable op- position from the hunters who are likely to magnify the time and care it will take to keep account, and those who are too unsystematic in all they do to make an accurate account of anything. It is valuable information which is sought for and there is no 800d reason why the state should not be provided with it. SELF DEN:AL OFFERING SUNDAY. The need of Missionaries in the work of evangelizing Korea has prompted the officials of the Methodist church to name January 29th, as Self- Denial Oftering Sunday, and in 17,000 Methodist Episcopal churches the con- gregations will bring the results of @ self-denial and give it for the sal- ion of Korea. The Methodist Epis- copal church has a great opportunity, and the Bishops and Missionaries are awakening the people to that fact. Concerning the great work the mis- slonaries are doing, Corwin Taylor es as follows from Kong Ju, Ko- the Fall Quarterly Con- the District Superintendent myself planned to carry out the rit if not the letter of the simul- taneous campaign that had just closed in Seoul. The shortage of good, per- sonal workers making a simultaneous effort all over the district being an impossibility, we brought the best workers together at a town some fifteen miles from Kong and began the campaign the second week in Novem- ber. The plan adopted and quite closely followed, was as follows: A meeting every morning for an hour of prayer and Bible study, then person- al work from home to home the balance of the day. the helpers going out by twos and threes. All of these workers carried tracts and most of them had had experience in doing per- sonal work, o that after the first night or so the efforts of these earnest workers began to yield results. In the evening a general meecting was held at which the seekers were enrolled and instructed, The weatber was cold and a part ows of the time snow and rain fell mak- 1.

Uncle Jed’s Chat with the Children. We talked last week about ourselves as builders. You may have built some sorry days in your young lives. I know children always do because thev are filled with thoughts of having fun more than being good and useful. Per- haps it is just s weil they are so, for experience sharpens their wits as well as_schools their minds. Tl tell you a day Jimmie built into his life and he never could forget it. Heo meant to make it just as good as any day, but he met a Boston boy named Charley who invited him to play “Hookey!” A new game always was pleasing to Jim, and he had no idea that it meant running away from school, eo he invitad Charley to play it with them. He asked the Boston hoy if it needed any more than three to play it, and he said more could, but it was just as well not to have too many. As they were wandering out into the country they threw stones at | a countryman in a field and the con- | stable chased them and when the; were a mile or two from school they | heard the bells ringing. Jimmie said | the school bells were ringing and they | must hurry to ‘hool, but the Bos- ton hoy said ou are not going to school,” If you do you can't play | hookey!” So they went on to the marshes and climbed into the big haystacks and crawled under them and did all kinds of stunts. They did not have anything to eat, and thev got cross, and the Boston boy whipped Jimmie, and Charley fell off the hay- | stack and sprained his ankle and had to be helped home at dark, and Jim- mie got whipped by his mother, and then he got sassy and was whipped by his father, and when he went to bed that night he made up his mind it was the worst day he ever saw. He had a good mother and she wanted him to begin the next day right, so she wrote the teacher to please excuse Jimmie and not whip him, because he had been whipped three times and was going to be a2 good boy. He was excused and built better days for quite awhile, but Jimmie's days were | all his own days and a good many of them resembled Chinese puzzles.

Three little English girls, writinz The Birmingham Weckly post about country life in England, picture it as | follow: | “We all know how beautiful the country is when there has been a fall of snow. The trees seem to be trim- med with lace, and the hedges and fields are white, as if fairies had been at work on them; and if we live in a suburb of a town we can reach the| country in about 20 minutes, if wo take a brisk walk, and I am sure we appreciate its beauties much more than if we saw it every day.” “When the harvest time comeé: round, how beautiful it is to see the farmers and their workmen gathering the hay in as fast as they can before the rain comes to destroy it. Lots of children round here have rides on the rts as they go back to the fields. I did last summer, and it was such | fun. Then, winter has its attractions, | too. It is so pretty to see the snow on the country, especially when it is hilly. | Then when it comes a sharp frost and | the pools get frozen over, then there is ;::la ing and sliding which is delight- ul. ountry animals are so splendi the cats and dogs and horses seem better educated and nicer in every way than the poor cramped-up things in towns. 1 also love the pursuits of s ountry life, like fishing, hunting, boat ing, poultry and goat-keeping, bee- keeping and gardening and study wild flowers, grasses, pond life, etc. A good game is almost impossible in a town, but in a country field one can play a jolly game of hockey, and in| summer, cricket and many other| am.

He was finally let out in a small house full of bins hich the farmer called his corncrib, and there he staved all day wishing that Toots would appear. for Jerry thought Toots was having a good time at his oid home.

By and by the door opened and the farmer with a pan of milk in s hand at once spied the lifeless rats, and he exclaimed: “Well dome, Jerry; you are a cat worth having! Good cat!” and these words of praise made Jerry feel sa and pleased, so he arched up his back and held his pretty striped tail rizht up straight and purred around the! milkman’s feet.

A boy in the bush of Australia wrote Sydney Stock Journal: Now I want to tell you something about this locality. The post town is Bandon Brove, and it is a very pretty! iittle place. Our house is situated on a hill, and overlooking the Williams river. The willow trees are very pret- ty at present, and are about the only |} green things around here, with the ex- | ception of lucerne flelds, as it is very dry, and bush fires are threatening. ' “Beyond the river are two ranges of hills—the first and nearest to us is bare and dry, and the next looks quite blue from here, because it is covered with trees. Sometimes in the evening just before the sun sets, this range is very pretty. The slowly-fading sun- light turns the blue to a deep purple, with patches of gold here and there. Yesterday evening it was beautiful, because big, soft, pals pink clouds were peeping from behind the range, and slowly turning different colors.” The First Candlestick. The first candlestick was a boy. He §at in the corner of a Scotch kitchen, holding a piece of fir candle and trim- ming it to make it burn brightly. The fir candle was a length of wond cut off a kind of* fir tree, which is found embedded in the peat. This kind of candle is still used in some parts of Scotland.
