II Moussa Effendi Khouri Is right,
the value Of silkworms will soon be very

After studying for q long time the
manner in which silkworms do their

the conclusion that quite as fine silk
could be made out Of the twigs and
bark Of the mulberry tree as is made

What 10 Teach BOYS.

A philosopher has said that true ed
ucation to boys is to teach "them what
they ought to know when they become
men,"
l. To be true and to be genuine
No education is worth anything thai
does not include this. A man had bet
ter not know how to read-he had bet
ter never learn letter in the alphabet
and he true, genuine in intention ant
in aclion-rather than be learned in al
sciences and in all languages, to be al
the same time false in heart and coun
terfeit in life. Above all things teaci
the boys that truth is more thar
riches, more than earthly power OF
possessions.
=. TO be pure in thought, language
and life-pure in mind and i'll body.
8. TO be unselfish. 10 care for the
feelings and comfort of others. 10 be
generous, noble and manly. This will
include a genuine reverence for the
aged and for things sacred.
4. TO be self.reliant and self-helpfu]
even from childhood. TO be industri'
Gus always and self-supportiDg at tho
earliest proper age. Teach them that
all honest work is honorable, and that
an idle life of dependence on Others is
disgraceful.
When a boy has learned these 4
things-when he has made these ideas
part of his being-however poor, OF
however rich, he has learned the most
important things he ought to know
when lie becomes man.

Eat More Fruit.

Notwithstanding the large increase
of fruit growing, says q writer IN the
independent, the mass of our people
do not have as much fruit as they
could enjoy, nor rs much as would
conduce health. | once exhibited at II
State fair q large number of fine new
grapes. What most impressed me was
the greed of all sorts of people to get q
bunch as soon as the hour came for
breaking up the exhibit. Boys and
girls especially begged for few.
Nothing is more easily grown than q
grape vine. 1t will almost take care OF
itself if you will give it reasonable
chance; and then, having been trim
med on very simple principles for
three years, you can let it run over q
tree, a shed, a barn or trellis. Keep
it free from weeds, and we'll shod with
ashes and manure, and you will have
grapes to eat. Of course a neat trellls
through your garden is better, and the
best culture brings the best returns.
But the hungry people They live
on meat at ten cents pound when a
pound of grapes at six cents would gc
quite as far and be much more enJoya'

fruits, and live we'll and be strong. ]

eight, and one four years old. Not one
of them have ever tasted meat, butter
or pastry, and only the simplest o.
cake. They have all the fruit they
can eat, and what vegetables they pre-
fer, with milk, eggs and fruit pudding
They are solid, large built, enduring
active, healthy. They do not know
the meaning Of the headache or indi
gestion. Their minds are exceedingly
active, energetic, quick to learn and
retentive. Their temners are never
violent and never vicious.
I do not undertake to attribute al
that is possible in them to their diet
do attribute the absence of many ills
to the fact that their stomachs have
never been impaired by pastry and
grease. Nine children out of ten are
dyspeptics at six years of age. They
are never quite free from stomach,
head and bowel difficulties. This pre-
pares the way for diseases of debility
such as piles, catarrh, etc.
