The men complain that the women
are narrow-minded, but if men were
housed as closely as the women, they
would be even more narrOw-minded
than the women. The average woman
sees no one from daylight to dark but
her husband and her children and
hired girl. Her husband never talks
state affairs to her. If be hears down
town that some man has run off with
another mans wife, he tells her of it,
and then complains afterwards that
she talks scandal. It is safe to say
that not one man in AIchison told his
wife about the overthrow of the mon
arch in Brazil the other day. She
would have been interested in it, but
he was narrow-minded enough to
think she would rather hear gossip
Man is the educator, and his wife the
pupil. He does not talk great thihgs
TO her, and then is ashamed that she
talks nothing but little things.-Atch

How to Model In Clay.

An outfit of five pounds of CLAW. O
sharp jack knife and one tool will do
many wonders. This tool is made out
of piece of maple eight inches long;
one end made fiat about one-half inch
wide, from the center gradually be-
coming thinner until it is as thin as a
knife blade. From the middle slope
down to the other end; hollow out the
center, then sand paper until per-
fectly smooth.
If the clay is not used Immediately
after purchasing, put it in any sort of
a dish and cover with wet wooden
rag, keeping the rag wet.
Now for the work. 1t is better to
buy plaster slab, which costs only
ten or fifteen cents at any pottery, al
though this is not necessary, as COM
mon board or marble slab will do
In the first place make "a tile six by
four inches, and about one inch thick
by kneading the clay until all Jumps
are worked out, then throw it on the
slab to make the clay moro compact.
With rolling pin roll until little
thicker than required.
If there should happen to be bubbles
in the clay, prick them with a pin.
Fill up the holes and make the tile
smooth by rubbing it with moistened
fingers. Turn it over and repeat the
operation. If it is now thicker than
required smooth it down and with the
jack knife cut it to the proper length
and width
Take leaf for a model, for it is
better to work right from nature;
make an exact drawing of it, outline
and veins, with the curved end of the
tool. If the drawing cannot be done,
a tracing may be substituted. Take
the other end of the tool and cut this
outline one-half inch deep and then
with u jack knife cut away the clay
outside the leaf, smoothing down the
new surface.
Make the depressions in tho clay
leaf as in the real one. Sometimes
the finger will be sufficient, sometimes
the curved end of the tool will be nee
essary. There will always be some
finishing touches to add which the
worker must see for himself.
When it is nearly dry put in back
ground by simply rubbing the curved
end of the tool over it in strokes. If
the leaf proves q success take it to a
pottery, where for few cents it can
be fired. Otherwise it will crack and
crumble away. If the leaf is unsuc-
cessful the clay can be worked over
and used again.
After leaf or two have been made
satisfactorily you can model flowers
or make something useful as well as
ornamental, such as match boxes, ash
receivers and thermometer holders,
and, perhaps, after practice you will be
able to model figures. -Thyrza G. Will

How Wounded Men Behave.

If n soldier is wounded his behavior
depends on the manner in which he is
wounded and whether he is of quiet
or eXcitable temper. Flesh wounds
received III action are in many cases
not felt at all, until the blood comes
and the man gets exhausted. When
a bone is struck the shock is great and
accompanied by acute pain. L have
seen poor fellows struck in the breast
by Mimic balls remaining in action for
minutes, then sinking on their knees
or falling on their faces. Not all such
severe wounds are mortal. Sergt. Ture
of the Twelfth Missouri received ball
which went right through both tenn
Piles, aud he lived foryears afterward;
q soldier who was shot through his
left lung lived for whole year; Gen.
Shields was shot through his breast in
Mexico and reached an advanced age
The worst hits are of course those by
canister and round shot and are
mostly mortal. They take OF arms
or legs, or the head of a man, as was
the case with the captain of a south
ern battery in the battle of Pea Ridge.
Splinters of shells are less dangerous,
UuI Wucu tuIOWh luto groups anu
columns may disable many men. A
single shell from a Paixhan gun sent
from Fort Ducan, Maryland Heights,
in my presence, to Boliver Heights
against q group of southern horsemen
killed Gen. Lewis and wounded or
killed nineteen of his companions.
I have heard wounded soldiers groan-
ing under great pain, but I never
heard them crying out or using pro-
fame language When hating on
horseback on the right of the TWEEN
ty-fourth Massachusetts, In the battle
Of New Market the regiment was
under fire at close range for about
forty minutes, losing 200 men in
killed and wounded, but not loud
cry was heard from those who were
wounded. Gen. Franz Sigel

Horse Blankets which are strong
and have reputation are always
initiated in poor qualities which
look like them, but having fewer
warp threads are not as strong.
Some dealers buy these poor
limitations for few cents less and
by saying they are "just as good"
sell them at the same price as the
strong blankets. to parties who do
not know the difference.
You cannot tell whether horse
blankets are strong by the look
or feel, as the warp threads do
not show on the face. How then
are you to knowl
Inorderthat you cantella strong
blanket from weak one, the manu-
facturer Of 81 Horse Blankets
sews the above "a Trade Mark
inside of each blanket. This is a
guarantee that it is the strongest
blanket made for the money and
will wear we'll.
Many poor limitations have been
sold as "a blankets. Remember
none are genuine unless the
"a Trade Mark is sewed inside.

Scientific Teaching of Morals.

Moral philosophy fell to my share.
No books were used. My methods
were quite similar to those of Pro-
lessor Straight. In series Of discus
sions, extending over several weeks,
the human being was taken where
Professor Straight left him, and the
relations developed that existed be-
tween him and other human beings.
Needs were shown to exist by virtue
of the constitution of things" and
deeper than this we did not attempt
to go.
Human beings were seen to be po-
tentially equal in needs, hence the ne
cessity for equality before the law,
that all might have opportunity for
their natural development. Out of
needs grew rights, and out of rights
duties. A study of experience soon
showed that duty assumed two phases
positive and negative. Confucius is
credited with q maxim covering the
ground of negative duty--forbidding
injury to your neighbour; Jesus enun-
ciated law that summarized both pos
tive and negative duty.
Next, the principles derived from
this preliminary study were applied
to the conditions which exist in school,
home and neighborhood. Why
should q person work2 What timo
should DO given to recreationa What
shall we do with the tramp2 What
with worthy but destitute men and
womena What with needy orphans2
The discussion was conducted al
most solely by tho pupils. When it
took too wide o range, the teacher
