She, however, studied without teachers,
and when she was - years Of age she
taught a country school. She continued
to teach and study until she was %,
when, after attending school one year,
she was ready to enter college. 1t was
at this time that she w2s converted and
resolved to enter the ministry.
In speaking Of her life Miss Shaw says:
LAS far back as | can remember my
great desire was to work for the uplift-
ing of humanity. Ny family, however,
bitterly opposed me. thinking a public
life unbecoming a woman.
Miss Shaw supported herself during
the three years that she was at Albion
college, and al-o while she was at the
Boston University school Of theology,
from which she graduated in 1873.
Miss Shaw was seven years pastor of
the Methodist church at East Davis,
Mass, and during this time took a
course of medicine in the Boston Uni
versity school Of medicine. While she
was still pastor Of the Methodist church
at East Davis Miss Shaw made applica-
ton to the New England conference for
ordination, but, although she passed a
perfectly satisfactory examination,
Bishop Andrews refused to ordain her
on the ground of sex. However, few
months later she applied to the New
York conference of the. Wesleyan
/ Methodist church, and was ordained and
given full elders orders.
Miss Shaw has for some time devoted
herself to the suffrage movement, and
has lectured much in the interests of that
cause, although she makes it point to
preach on Sunday wherever she is. She
is an untiring worker, and delivers on
an average twenty lectures each month
in the year.

PREACHER AND LECTURER.

Here Is a Brief Sketch of the Rev. Annie
Il. Shaw.
1t is pleasant to record success achieved
against odds of the most adverse condi-
tons. Without having received even the
common school education which falls to
the lot of most children, Miss Shaw has be-
come a learned woman and one Of the fore
most preachers of her sex. She was born
at Newcastle, England, in 1917. When
she was but years of age her family
came to this country, and when she was
II years old they settled in northern
Michigan, where there were no schools.

An Irresistible Bait for Rats.

Washington Cor Cincinnati Commercial.
An interesting, not to say valuable,
discovery has been made by Capt.
Weedin, in charge of the animals at
the Zoo. The building is infested by
rats, and how to get rid of them has
long been a perplexing question.
Traps were used, but nothing would
tempt the rodent to enter. In a
store. room drawer was placed a guam
tity of sunflower seeds, used as a
food for some of the birds. Into this
drawer the rats gnawed their way-a
fact which led the captain to expert
ment with them for the bait in the
traps. The result was that the rats
can't be kept out, A trap which APP
pears crowded with six or eight rats
is found some mornings to hold fit.

containing weasels or minks. The
latter will kill a rat absolutely almost
before one can see it, so rapid are it;
movements. The weasels are a triflt
slower, but none of the rats escape
them.

Danger in Ice.


OF late, attention has been directed
to the latent dangers in ice 1t has
been found that this apparently
harmless and attractive substance
may fairly reek with disease germs
and filth of all kinds. Unless it is
known from whence the ice comes,
its use may be more dangerous than
water which no one would think of
drinking, as, for instance, from ponds
in cemeteries and from rivers in the
neighborhood of sewer outlets, and,
as a result, may be indescribably
foul. Aside from the danger OF
germs lurking in ice, there is risk in
the indiscreet use of water cooled to
an abnormally low temperature,
since functional disorders are often
caused by the drinking of very cold
water. No water is so refreshing as
that Of mountain spring, and one
reason of this is that its temperature
is just right. 1t is well to take hints
that are given by nature, and the him
that the best temperature of drink
ing water is about so Fair. is a gooC
one, and worth following.

A Photograph Joke.

When the photograph was a newer
invention than it is at the present
time, Edison put one of the machines
in his clock and placed it in his gnest
chamber. Being a great lover Of a
practical joke he also placed friend
in the guest chamber one night. Just
as his friend was disrobing he heard a
voice eXclaim: ELEVEN o'clock; one
hour more" 1t is needless to say
that slumber did not decend upon
the eyelids of the visitor during that
hour. AT midnight the voice eX-
claimed "Twelve o'clock prepare
to die J" This was too much for him;
he sprang from his bed and rushed to
the library, where Edison and his
friends were waiting patiently, eX'
pecting his appearance. The inven'
ton was soon explained and quiet
restored.

Durable and Brilliant whitewash.

One-half bushel of good lime, five
pounds rock salt, dissolved, one.half
pound whiting, four pounds ground
rice, boiled to a thin paste, one-half
pound clean grease. Slack the lime
in a tight box or barrel, with hot
water, keeping the box covered that
the steam may not escape. 1t can be
tinted if desired. Slack to the con-
sistency Of thick cream. Thin it
when used, so that it will flow freely
from the brush. If put on too thick
it will flake off more or less when
dried. The above is for outside
work. For indoors, slack the lime
as above, emitting the salt, grease
and rice. Instead of thinning the
creamy solution with water, use
skim milk. This latter is a secret
worth knowing.

Atlanta Journal, We rejoice in the
belief that neither in the amount of
farm mortgages nor in the unprofita-
bleness of farm labor, are the South
ern States as bad off as those of the
West. Our chief agricultural pro-
duct, cotton, brings a fair price
and the commercial and indus
trial world must have it else their
own business would go to stagnation
and wreck. Still the unfortunate
condition of other agricultural inter-
ests should be solemn admonition
to Southern farmers. They should
give no mortgages except such as
are unavoidable, make their amounts
as low as their dressing necessities
will allow, keep close up in the pay
ment of interest, and put away
something every year to the princi-
pal when due.

Philadelphia Record The inquis-
itorial character of some of the census
questions would be mitigated in
some degree if thorough and reliable
data could be obtained by the process.
But from feelings of delicacy, sprink-
ling modesty and other private mo-
tives many persons would evade the
questions and many more would
give false answers. The information,
therefore, would have no value for
the purpose for which it is sought.
Inquisitorial methods that might not
be challenged in despotism like Rus
STA will not be tolerated in this free
country. There is already altogether
too much government intending with
the private affairs of the people, and
it should be checked rather than en-
couraged. These inquisitorial census
questions are based on the vicious
theory that the people belong to the
Government; whereas the Govern
ment is merely the limited agent Of
