Appointment Minnesotan once said that
it made him inexpressibly sad to see the
richness of the soil go away in the thou
sands of bushels of wheat, never to return.
If he had struck a balance between the
wheat sen out and the dollars sent in,
and with this in his pocket gone down the
river about two miles below the suspen-
sion bridge, and gazed over the bank into
the Mississippi, he would have seen a
sight that would have made him so much
sadder that he would doubtless weep from
anguish.
Hero the banks are about sixty feet
high, and here the city has built a series
of chutes from the top of the bluff to the
water below, in each of which is kept con-
stantly flowing a three inch stream of
water. These, except for the wasted wa
ter, are innocent enough. but down these
chutes go each day from 800 to 1000
wagon loads of the richest manure
Is this of SO little value as q fertilizer
for the decreasing richness of the soil, OF
is the need of fertilizing the whole Missis-
sippi river so great that this Is the best
disposition to make of this? Oh, for an
inventor who knows how to enrich tho
wasting soil and purify the contaminated

Ferrots for Exterminatlng Rats,

There is no denying the fact that fer
rets can do the most sweeping work in
the way of discriminating rats of any
plan yet hit upon. My house used to be
infested with the largest and most impu-
dent class of this species of pests. Some
of them were audicious enough to dispute
ownership of the kitchen with the cooks.
About a month ago l purchased two fer
rets, brought them home, fixed them a
comfortable abode in the kitchen and
awaited results! During the first day
the little animals remained in their quar-
ters, but about 8 o'clock in the evening
they both disappeared. l saw nothing
more of them until 8 o'clock the next
morning, when one of them put in an ap-
pearance at headquarters and was fol
lowed in about half an hour by the second.
The first arrival was a little the worse
for wear. He had evidently had several
hard skirmishes during the night. The
back of his neck was bitten, his breast
was scratched and one of his eyes bulged
out like a pillow In q broken window. l
had both washed thoroughly and they re-
manned quietly together most of the day.
AS soon as darkness set in, however, they
both again disappeared, only to reappear
In the morning at their customary place
for their usual ablution. This programme
was kept up for about two weeks with
but little depression. In the meantime 1
began to notice the absence of my long
tailed and disagreeable enemies. They
failed to show up in their accustomed
haunts, and it was rarely that / aver en-
countered one of them in my tour about
the house, either by day or night. In
short, these two little ferrets nave cleared
the premises SO effectually that l would
almost venture to offer a good sized re-
ward for the scalp Of a rat found in my
house.-F. s. Andrews in Globe Democrat.

Each mind feels a certain wave of IN
happiness when it looks in upon itself
and marks how many wheels must be in
sanity. In such moments of introspec-
ton the thought comes that not only is
the thinker crazy, but all men and women
are not a little crazy; that perfect sense
is impossible. A professor in a Chicago
college walked into a canal in broad day
light. He was thinking of something else
than the canal and of his good black suit
of clothes. He enjoyed his scientific rev.
erie, but he got wet. he had to retire to
his home and change the external wrap
pings of his wise, pompous soul. The
man who was telling this story of the
unfortunate professor walked out of a
railway car at the next station and left
his valise in the rack to go on and on and
never to be found. Thus, while the canal
wet the clothes of one rational being, the
railway carried away all the clean shirts
of another. A third man got off at the
first station to wait for the next train to
bring him his railway ticket and his
bunch of keys. In an hour the ticket and
keys came, but his big valise had been
left behind and the trunk was not locked.
The persons designated as insane are a
little less rational han the average, but
In each person In the circle of nations
there is going on a perpetual struggle be-
tween what is called the vital principle
and the millions of atoms-the atoms
being liable to stampede like a nerd of
wild cattle.-Professor David Swing In
Chicago Journal.

superstitions of South Africans.

The Bantu nave no definite idea of the
mode of existence of their d%eities, but the
southern tribes uppose them 90 inhabit
dim, underground caverns. They regard
the unseen world in which they believe
with unmingled dread, and drir3 refec-
ton concerning it from theh, l'loughts
whenever it is possible to do 50. Before
their intercourse with white lea it had
never struck them that the acts of this
life could have any effect upon the spirit
after death. They are in no sense an i'm
aginative or speculative people, but direct
their entire attention to such material
objects as Immediately affect their well
fare. In such q condition, progress
toward a higher kind of life, unless di-
rected by some external agency, is nearly
impossible. In other words, self develop
ment must be a very slow process, if it
can be accomplished at all. For, first,
their greatest dread is that of offending
the spirits of their ancestors, and they
hold that any departure from established
customs will assuredly do this, and there
fore bring evil upon them.
Next, their belief in witchcraft is OPP
posed to progress of any kind. For q
man who is not a chief, and who differs
from his fellows by being mentally in ad-
vance of them, inevitably draws sus-
picion on himself Of being q wizard, and,
where there Is no foreign controlling
power, surely falls a victim to their fury.
The belief in witchcraft is to this day the
cause of a terrible amount of suffering
among the tribes that are independent.
ALI events that cannot be readily COM
prehended-sickness in man, murrain in
cattle, blight in crops, even casual acct
dents-are by them attributed to the
agency of wizards and witches, and not
the slightest compassion is felt for any
unfortunate wretch whom the recognized
witch finder of the community points out
as guilty. Confiscation of property, tor
ture, death are the penalties of being
charged with this ideal offense. 1t is be-
neved that one man can bewitch another
by means Of any such thing as a few hairs
from his head, a clipping Of a finger nail,
q piece of clothing, or indeed anything
whatever that belongs to him or can be
brought into contact with him, or can be
concealed In or about his hut.-"History
Of the Beers in South Africa"

Peeps laughing DER the hills, and glances
through
The darkness and the shrouding mists of blue
And soon the mountains are aglow with light.
Here is a rocky steep, whose sun brown height
Is clothed In green of many a varied hue;
There, In the deep ravine, bursts on the view
A sea of fog, wit.1 pillows foaming white.

The joyous waking from the darkness brings

With noisy huttering of little wings,
From out the chaparral a songster springs,
And greets with rapturous notes the daylight fair.

End of the short-HaIr Craze.

THE short-hair craze has sort of run
out" said a Washington lady barber.
Some of the hair has got discouraged
through being cut so often, and never
given a chance to grow, so that now it
won't That is the trouble with lots of
heads | could mention. 1t doesn't do for
young lady to cut off her hair short too
late in life. That's why there are great
many wigs being worn this season. You
saw all those young ladies with short hair
last summer? You don't see them now.
Sometimes hair grows out very well after
it has been cut short; sometimes it
doesn't. We have sold quite number Of
wigs on account of this change of fash
ion. There were some pretty suits of
hair spoiled by that short hair cut. Some
refuse ever to grow long again, some
grow out stiff and straight. some lose all
of it's natural color. Some blonde hair
came out sitter and darker. Some did
not suffer from the fashion, but many
did. Young ladies who had soft curly
hair of rich natural color were struck
with the short hair craze. Aud now
well, they are awful sorry. All the curl
is gone. The softness has gone too, aud
SO has the rich color. The most common
result has been the entire loss Of the
natural tendency to curl. Constant cut
ting has made the hair straight. Somes
times they have their own natural hair
that was cut off made over into wigs
