auder every possible form have seel

regard to the great superiority ofsolubIs
over insoluble phosphates."
Prof. S. w. johnson saws: 1.-THE .ulti-
mate effect Of acting ON bones with sui
phuric acid is the same as extreme pull
verization. Bone flour is rs active and
effectual fertilizer as the sulphated
bone. In sther words, given amount
of money and labor expended in raw
bones often goes further and does better
than when put in stipulated bone"
Abundant testimony is at hand to con-
firm Sir j. b. Lawes and Prof. S. w.
johnson, but none is needed. Why is
it, then, that the experiment stations
are 50 persistent in valuing the soluble,
iusoluble and reverted phosphates so
differently, and insist that the variations
in the solubiiity must be expressed. and
yet give no heed to the solubility of am
monia. much more costly article

An Unfortunate Father.

A gentleman travelling through the
mountains and thinly settled districts of
North Carolina was overtaken by q Sc
we're storm. As he was on horseback,
and therefore quite unprotected. he be-
held with delight log cabin in the dis
lance. and speedily took himself thither.
The old farmer greeted him with true
Southern hospitality. and he soon found
himself seated st the dinner table beside
the ''ole 'ooman," as his host designated
his wife, while one by one seemingly
endless file of daughters entered the
room. Turning to the farmer he mildly
observed: ''YOu have a fine family Of
daughters. SIR"
We'll" said the old man, mourn
fully, ''we've been kinder unfort' nate
with our darters. The chimbly fell in
and killed all but nine on EN-"

many there were at first Harper's

QUAKER LANpLoRps.


BroodFBrinmed Summer Hotel Keeper
I Who Are Up to All Klnds Of sna3.
The gentle Quaker is to be found II
almoNt every summer resort along the
New jersey coast. and he is . fixture
and . feature of the lake and mountain
resorts Of Pennsylvania. Inyour minds
eye you picture him with venerable
beard, bald-head. broad-brimmed hat
and buckle shoes, but your minds eye
is way Of. In . great many instances
"William" keeps the hotel, and he has
. business look about him to make
things snap. Amy one who takes him
foi . moss-back will presently hear
something drop.
Il welcome thee and thine, observes
William. as the guest walks up to the
register.
That's all right and proper, and Wis
ions Of first-fioor rooms at seven dollars
per week float through u mans mind.
"Wilt thou tsrry with me?" inquiries
William. in voice as soft as butter.
You wilt. That's what you've come
for. You register your name and ask
to look at rooms.
II know can satisfy thee" observes
William, as he leads the way. ." sup
pose thee prefers the first floor?''
Thee does. He is shown a bedroom
a trife larger than coffin. without q
bell, gas or other conveniences, and
blandly informed that he can tarry q
week for twenty-five dollars. II he
should so far forget himself As to remain
two weeks reduction of one dollar per
week would be made.
II have still others to show thee"
says William, and you finally accept of
a room and stow yourself away, be-
cause you can't do better. William has
the bulge on you, and he knows it.
Candles are cheaper than gas, and he
knows you'll put up with them. Electric
bells cost money, and he knows you'll
come to the Office to report your wants
or let them 90 unrelieved. His beds
are hard as boards, but people sleep on
them in preference to the floor. His
table won't compare with an ordinary
country hotel, but you must eat or go
hungry. The waiter softly thee's and
thou's you. but the coffee is dish water
and the butter stale. At the office thee
is told to make myself at home. Tut the
price of cigars. billiards and bowls
create the impression of highway rob
berry.
Thee can't get a bathing ,suite any
cheaper of William than of the Hebrew
on the corner. His wagon charges thee
just as much for n ride, and his porter
wants feeling and his bootblack grabs
for his dime the same a. at the tavern
of the ungodN. William processes to
serve thee with milk at the table. but
he waters it. He talks of dairy butter.
but he serves thee with mockery. He
tells thee there are no mosquitoes, and
thus saves the expense of screens while
you fight the pests all night
In fact. Old Broadbrim is up to snuff
at all the resorts, and you've got to get
drowned with all your cash on your
person to get ahead of him for even a
nickle. Every thee, costs you fifteen
cents. and it is never more than two
''thees'' for quarter.-M. quad, IN

ATrout's voracity.

The voracity of both cod and pike is
proverbial. and the appetite of the eel
appears unfailing. The trout is shy
and timid feeder, and at times. as fly
fishers well know, will mo feed ava"
But the Earl of Tankerville had an ex-
perience the other day while angling
in the River Till, using worms as bait
on the favorite Stewart tackle, which
shows that sometimes after 3 drought
the trout can be ravenous indeed. He
hooked a fish. and the gut breaking.
put in another tackle; hooked q fish
again, and broke. and again renewed
the tackle. A third time he hooked,
and this time landed; when to his as
constituent he found the three tackles
of nine hooks in all in the mouth of the
same fish.-St. James Gazette.

Imparting the Bee Odor.

Glucose is only three cents a pound.
while honey usually sells for twenty
cents. 1t is an easy matter to sell bo-
gus honey, and have it stored by the
bees for that purpose 1t is disguised
by the bees because they impart to il
the bee odor. or honey flavor. though
it is really not honey. The bees gather
glucose. sugar. molasses. or whatever
the material may be, and simply de-
post it in the combs. They do not
change it in the least. but allow it to
become of the proper consistency for
cappins it over. and the glucose is then
sealed in the comb the same As genuine
honey. This kind of adulteraticn may
oa lawful. but it is deception. never
theless, for it is nothing more than max
ing the bees the agents through which
glucose is deposited in the comts in
stead of boney.-Fa'm, Field aad

ABOUT SYNONYMS.
The Difficulty Experienced In Finding Suit
able Substitutes for Words.

The Difficulty Experienced In Finding Suit.
able Substitutes for Words.
One gets a vivid sense of the different
atmosphere about words substantially
synonym in trying to make substi-
tutions in proof-sheet. For example.
the lynx-eyed proof-reader has some
day conveyed to You, by means of tho
delicately unobtrusive intimation of \
blue-pencil line, the fact that YOU have
repeated 4 word three times in the space
of short paragraph. You have to find
substitute. 1t is easy to think of half
dozen terms that stand for very nearly
the same idea, but it is in the incongru-
Gus implications of them all that the
difficulty lies. You consult your Book
of synonyms, and find there nearly all
you have already thought Of. but never
any others. There is, however, one
further resource. You have had from
boyhood the Thesaurus of Engl sh
Words. Hundreds of times, during all
these years, you have referred to its
wonderful wealth of kindred terms.
You seem dimly to remember that on
one occasion in the remote past you did
find in it missing word you wanted.
1t shall have one more chance to distin-
guish itself. Perhaps the sentence to
be amended reads thus: las he tore
open the telegram smile of bitter
mockery flickered across his haggard
features, and he staggered behind the
slender column" Suppose, now, it is
the word '.mockery" for which you seek
substitute. The Thesaurus suggests,
Il smile of bitter bathOs, bitter butoon-
cry, bitter slip-of- the-tongue. bitter sour
riI,iy. Or suppose it is staggered
that is to be eliminated. You lind as
alluring alternatives, he Fuctn0ted, he
cuyreted. he Lbrated, he dangled. If
each one of these would seem to impart
certain flavor that is hardly required
for your present purpose, you may
write, he pranesd, he Tapped, he ch.rs-
ed, he eferresced, behind the slender
column. Or should the word to be re-
moved be '-haggard, you have your
choice between his squaiid features. his
maculated features. his besmeared feat
ures. his rickety features. Or. finally,
if you are in search of something to I'LL
the place of ''column." your incompar-
able handbook allows you to choose
freely between the slender tallness, the
slender ns0y-pole, the slender hwmmock,
promontory, top-gallant-mass, procerity,
montiele. or garret. The object of this
work, says the title-page, is Ito facili-
tate the expression of ideas and assist in
literary composition. "-I4ti0ntic.

MATERNAL DUTIES:

Educating Children In Moral ~ Well a
In Physical Hygiene.
Hygiene in the home means moro
than merely carefully scrubbing out the
corners. disinfecting cellars, drains,
ETC.; all very necessary things in their
way, but not of the Importance that
personal hygiene is. Every boy and
girl should be thoroughly taught the
sanitary science of living; and in order
that they shall understand the question.
they must have comprehension of the
physiological laws of their being; in fact
young people should undergo a sort OF
moral sanitation. Where there is ignO-
rance, there is crime; and when q per-
son commits crime, violates the law,
whether he knows the law or not, he
must suffer punishment. Where we
violate hygienic laws We will surely be
punished. Mothers all over the land
are responsible for mistakes on the part
of their children, committed through
ignorance, and for crimes on the part OF
others which that ignorance made easy.
They may never know the consequences
of their neglect, but many a child bears
lifelong results, and many times the
'.had l only known" would fill the
mether's heart with deepest sorrow did
she hear it, and know the woe and
misery which forced it into expression.
1t is time mothers realized the awful
responsibility which rests upon them,
and meetit truly. bravely. intelligently.
They are training human beings for the
future, training them for good or evil.
for Joy or sadness. Much of what that
future must be rests upon the mother.
The child must be taught to reason. to
know right from wrong; must know OF
quick-sands to avoid them. No one
fears that of which he knows nothing.
MANY mothers excuse themselves with.
Il don't know how Then learnt
is duty to themselves and to their chill
dren. A mother owes herself careful
training and preparation. mentally,
morally and physically, before she I'M
dertakes the sacred offices of maternity.
No mother has any right to be ignorant
concerning those things which may be
of vital concern to her child. Purely
and prayerfully teach children what
they should know. prepare them for the
trials and temptations they must meet
in the great world. while they are yet in
the home where they may be taught.
The world will be hard enough if they
are thoroughly prepared to grappie with
the problems it presents; but if unpre-
pared. with pitfalls on every hand and
not knowing of them. it would be rare
indeed if they did not stumble into some
of them.-XTIth Amendment.
