Do you know tha The butcher sorrowfully admitted that he did. “Well, you want a lawyer to look after your case.” “Yes,” replied the butcher; “1 haven't one, Can you take my case?” ried both lawyers. “Five dollars, Well!

Sun. DANCING OF SIAM. Perform Many Dext Feats —Are Re markably Agile and Graceful. The dancing girls of Siam are re- rkable for the agility and grace of their movements. The cup dance is the prettiest and most poetic of all. A row of young girls, with a tier of cups on their heads, take their places in the middle of the great hall. A burst of joyous music follows. Op hearing this they simultaneously, with military precision, kneel down fold their hands and bow their heade until their foreheads almost. touck the polished marble floor, keeping the cups steadily on their heads by some marvelous jerk of the neck Then, suddenly springing to their feet, they describe a succession of rap id and intricate circles, keeping time to the music with their arms, head and feet. Next the music swells inte & rapturous tumult. The dancers raise their delicate feet, curve their avms and fingers in almost impossi ble flexures, sway to and fro like withes of willow, agitate all the mus cles of the body like the flutter of leaves in the soft evening breeze, but still keep the cups on their heads, The dancing girls of Bangkok are always exercising in the royal gym- nasium. Their ages vary from five to twenty years. The curious and sub- le feat of picking up a bit of straw with the evelids can be learned only by the youngest of them, whe are made to practice it in order to render them flexible in every part of the hody. There are two long rows of benches, one a little higher than the ther, On the lower is a row of lit- Ue girls and on the upper bench are laid the polished bits of straw. At the sound of the drum the little girls all together bend hack the head and neck until they touch the bite of straw, which, with wonderful dex- terity, they secure between the cor- 50, an WHAT [8 FARMIN Agriculture Requires a High Order ot Tatellect and Training Farming in its true sense implies a great deal more than we ordinarily attach to the word. Good farnring consists in growing the maximun amount of whatever crop we grow at the minimum cost, and leaving the soil in the best possible condition for succeeding crops. Ht implies even far nthat, ‘The quality or mar i the erop must he consid cred and the fertility of the soil be maintained and increased In sense cropping is not farm ing. The great bk of “farmers’ are croppers, not farmers. This it emphatically true of most “tenan’ farmers.” ‘ming also implies it a most practical sense the curing handling, storing and marketing ofal kinds of farm produce, A suecessfu farmer is not one who sueceeds in ac cumulating some money by impover ishing his farm. 'Dhis system might work well for a time on our newer oils, but on some, which have beer farmed for centuries, we must prac tice true farming.

In this connection we most posi tively assert the farmer requires ar high'on order of intellect and as great an amount of training, in order to be well equipped for his business, as that required by any other business or pro- fession. This business ismore varied, lemanding a wider range of knowl to understand the wonderfw forces of nature than that of any ynther one business. The ambitious young man in casting about for s field of labor which will employ all hit talent and which talent and labor may be made remunerative (if agreeable te his tastes, and prosecuted with an in. telligent and enthusiastic zeal) need look no farther than the study and practice of farming.
