PHYSIOLOGICAL JARGON.

Some of the Results of Teaching the Sci.

There are intelligent men and women
who think that if boys and girls received
less schooling and more training, were
taught fewer of the 'ologies and more
Of the three RS, they would be better
fitted for their future work and station.
In the London elementary schools the
children are taught physiology and do
nestle economy. As they are too
young to apprehend these subjects, they
are crammed with facts which they are
unable to mark or inwardly digest v
The result of their mental Indigestion
comes out when the government in
spectors examine them. At an exam
nation two or three years ago the chill
dren who had studied physiology were
asked to describe in writing the pro-
cesses ofindigestion. One of them did
itin this wise:
Food is digested by the action of the
lungs Digestion is brought on by the
lungs having something the matter
with them. The food then passes
through your windpipe to the pores
''The food is nourished in the stom-
ach. If you were to eat any thing
hard, you would not be able to digest it,
and the consequence would be you
would have indigestion.

from the food which passes through it.

A DULL PUPIL
John Chinaman's Idea of American Rules
of Etiquette.

Jehn Chinaman's Idea Of American Rules
of Etiquette.
The Chinaman is not an apt pupil il
the study of American rules of eti-
quette, In most cases he is wholly in
different to such rules, and in others is
too stupid to be taught "manners. ~
He prefers going along in his Chinese
way, which is to him the best of all
ways. A gentleman living in Denver
undertook to instruct his Chinese
laundryman in certain rules Of polite
ness. The Chinaman had habit OF
boiling into the gentleman's room with
out the little preliminary courtesy OF
rapping on the door.
"Now, john" said the would-be
teacher, "ysu must not come into my
room without first knocking on the
door, like this" and here the gentle.
man stepped into the hall, knocked
lightly on the door, and then, entering
the room, asked: ''Do you under.
stand?'
"Yes, yes, me understand.
"vAry well, then; see that you dom
forget"
The next evening the gentleman was
sitting in his room, when there came a
loud rap on the door, which was in.
stantly thrown open by the Chinaman.
and in he came, grianing with pleas
ure.
.'See! see!' he said. '.Me Tapped
(rapped), me Tapped; me no forget to
lap"
"You might as well have forgotten"
said the gentleman, with a laugh,
''since you marched in without wait
ing for any one to come to the door"

all the same!''-- YOUTHS Con,pdSion.

A LUCKY GAMBLER.
How He Bled Some of His Colleagues
Who Had Set a Trap For Hin.
Cincinnati Enquirer. !

lClnClHHdtl LnIuiiti'.
Probably the most extensively known
gambler in Ohio is John Alexander, ~ Co
lumbus. He has made some Of the most
reckless ard lucky plays of any Of them
and has done great many things 70 at
tract the attention of not only the sporting
world, but that of the world on the out
side. friend Of his tells a story about
Alexander he vouches for, and if It has
been in print it is worth repeating:
John struck a streak of luck some years
ago that lasted until he had won many
thousands of dollars. 1t started in Wash
ington rt-house, o., and consisted. in
the first place, of winning of good pro-
portions from a couple of dollars 1t
seemed as though any bet that AleXan-
der made went his way. During the
run of luck referred to Alexander was one
day riding in street car, and there being
several men in the car who knew him, he
made the remark that he would bet TWEEN
tv-fve dollars to one that the car
would run off the track before they reached
their destination. One Of the others, who
considered that a good bet even if he lost
it, put up a dollar, and John, who never
weakens, posted twenty-five dollars,
Before the car had gone two LlOcks it ran
off the track fairly and sQuarely.
Alexander used to sleep over faro
bank that he conducted in Columbus, and
as the other gains of the capital knew his
penchant for betting on any proposition,
| they were constantly inven'ing Il scheme
| to "land the coon" There was big stone
| living in front of Alexander's place, and
one day a number Of sports got into con-
| yersat0n on the sidewalk on the probable
weight of the stone in question. At that
time there was nothing said about bet
ting. On that nj h. Alexander, willie
sitting in the window Of his led
room, cooling off, saw some Of the boys
load Mr.. Stone into wheelbarrow and
cart it away. Shortly af'er the stone was
| brought back and Dumped into its old po-
| stion. 1t occurred to Alexander that the
bows were setting a hear-trap for him. and
he concluded to bait the trap for suckers
| So be went below, procured d wheelbare

the dreams of the nno.rnt. The next day
the gang came down to break him on the
weight of that rock. Every gambler il

LIFE PICTURE

A glow at morn;
The rose half tempted into blooming red;
Bright hopes just born
That ere the eve must shed
Their petals though we never deem then
u dead.
A warmth at noon,
Full-souled and odorous; and life all fair
AS summer noon,
When stars lace beams as rare
As laughter which had not behind some care
A rest at eve;
The arlor and the heat of day is DER,
Hope Gun deceive
No longer; life no more
Can weave romanees from poets lore.
A hush at night;
We fold our wings as birds that seek the nest,
Earth is bedight
With rose no more. The zest
OF life sinks with the sunlight in the west.
1t is no dream,
No castle-building time, that we call life;
To catch the CLEAN
OF heaven in the strife.
Our toll must tend to reach the better life.
There is much room
For gratitude, much room for tenderness
In all the gloom
OF sorrow much to bless,
If we will labor more and murmur less.
Let us not turn
To seek in clouds our happiness, but try
Each day to learn
That near home blessings lie.
Those die to live who first have to die.

WEBSTER, Oak, April 16.-Our city is i'm
proving rapidly and the new buildings in con-
temptation and those already in progress will
make things boom here this season.
The Masonic temple here, and by the way
the only one exclusively belonging to the
order in the territory, will be completed
about the LIST of June, and will be dedicated,
probably about the 18th. "A new corpora
ton has been created here, the Day County
Real Estate exchange. It's object is TO buy,
sell and exchange real estate. Albert Smith,
cashier of the Day County bank, will soon
commence the construction of a hand
some residence on the West side. We un-
derstand two new elevators and Il steam -four
ing mill viii be erected here this season. The
mill is to he of fifty-barrel capacity, with
facilities for enlargement to 100. The Da-
kOTa edition of the GLOBE is a dandy. Every
body likes it and are loud in praise of the en-
terprise and business sagacity that suggested
it,. The canvass for county officers bids fair
to be q red-hot one this fall. A Democratic
organization in the county will be an import
ant factor in the race for place. The BulZer
house has changed hands and Col. Lewis is
''mne host" The name has been changed to
the Commercial. John Norton has added
forty feet to his store-room, and other mer-
chants are improving their facilities and en-
larging their capacity in anticipation of a
