vantage be considered by our first lcgisla-

be settled definitely is whether fraction
of a township, after its taxpayers have
contributed their share toward building
schoolhouses in other portions of their
township, may be legally set aslde re-
gardless of the wishes of its citizens, as a
new b-district or as unorganzed terri
tory. Perhaps, too, it would be good
idea to provide a maximum and minimum
scale OF wages for country schools
Without legal limit, one board of di.
rectors may put teachers wages at too
high figure, while another board may
put wages so low as to drive all the best

it came from the capitol, bears the ear

About the old mans hair
At last in misery he shouted

A BOON FOR THE FLY.

Natural gas has artificially pro-
longed the existence of the fly. In
the days of old, when nights were
cold, there being no gas fires, the
last fly Of summer smoothed down
his little coat tails, rolled up his
trunk, and fell over On his back
after the first few frosts. Now the
fly, like the man who wants a
small loan, is always with us. He
basks in continual warmth all
winter, but there are precious few
of him. The average happy
home, where gas bills come as
regularly as the new moon, will
have trouble in soaring up more
than three live flies on Valentines
day. Whether the February fly
lasts until the young mans fancy
lightly turns to thoughts of spring
suits, is question for scientists to
: tackle. We simply want to go on
record as saying that where
natural gas prevails, and no tab
is kept on the consumption, it is
possible by the expenditure OF
from $12 to $50 to preserve the
lie of a fly all winter and keep
the household warm at the same
time. When we can see a fly
twiddling his hind legs and rub
bing his ears on February .2Sth
we are convinced that he will live
in a great and growing age

GOOD DOCTRINE.

The following from Harpers
Weekly may not be in the Bible,
but it. is good doctrine, neverthe-
less: 1T is an old thing that no
sooner has death claimed our
friends for his own than we begin
TO say and do multitude of things
of little use at all then in compar-
ison to that which they might have
been had they come in advance of
death. Then out of hand we flock
to the house with offers of assis-
t*nce and proffers of friendship;
we rob our gardens and hot houses
and send cut flowers in profusion,.
and funeral Wreaths and crosses
and pillows and anchors and stars
to circumference, and do all we
can, though late, to hide and dis
guise and sweeten fate. But if we
had focked to the house while the
dead could have been aware of it,
how. much pleasure and excite
ment and relief from monotonous
or lonesome hours our sick friend
might have enjoyed when all was
a tiresome round OF day and night
and medicine and solitude, when
a bunch of flowers brought in
would have brought light to the
dull eyes in joy over both the gilt
and the giver, which no broken
columns Of tuberoses and lvies,
costing small fortunes, can bring
to the eyes of the dead! Even
could we not have been admitted
to the sick room itself, we could
have brought there. the murmur of
the outside world by the mere
knowledge given to the patient
that we were within the gates"

POPES AND CARDINALS.

OF the 363 Popes registered In
the statistics of the Holy See only
40 are Of foreign nationality, the
other 221 are Italians, and include
III Romans. Among the foreign
popes there have been Is French,
s Greek, 6 German, 6 Syrian, 3
Spanish, 8 African, 2 Dalmation, I
English, EprTte, 1 Antiochian- 1
Portuguese, 1 Thracian and 1 Flem.
The last named, who reigned under
the title of Adrian VI, is the latest
in date, and his elevation goes back
to the year 1922. So it is more
than three centuries and half
since non-Italian pope has sat on
st. Peters throne.
Of the GI existing Cardinals
only 80 are Italians; the other %
are foreigners. 1t will thus be
seen that the distance between the
two elements is, scarcely percepti-
BILE. Among the Cardinals who
are not Italians, there are s French,
