MET IN
A Family Reunited After y Separation Of
Seventeen Yoars.

Many queer incidents have been re-
corded concerning the events which
marked the opening of Oklahoma to
settlement, and especially about the
grand rush for homes, says the Philadcl-
phia Telegraph, but probably none have
such an element of strangcncss and ro-
nance as the reunion of q family which
had been separated for seventeen years.
John Reed lived in Newport, r. L., in
1874 and had trouble in his home affairs.
He and his wife agreed to separate, and
as they hed two children they each
took one. They did not get II divorce,
MS their religious scruplcs stood in the
way, hut went their own ways, the
wife taking the boy, aged four, while
Reed took the girl, aged seven. They
gradually driftcd apart, and forthc last
ten years had heard nothing of each
other.
One night Just before the opening OF
the town of Chandler to settlement u
young man came to the campfire of
Reed, who was among those waiting
for the opening, and asked ior some tea
for his mother, who was i'll from the OK
element of the rush. Rccd's daughter,
now n yOuns; woman, not Only gave
him the tea. but went with bin to see
if she could be OF any assistance to the
afflicted woman During the visit the
fact became known that both parties
bore the same name, and Mrs. Reed be-
gan asking questions and showed such
interest that the young woman thought
it strange; but as she had no idea that
her mother was i'll the west she took no
deep interest i'll the matter.
When she got back to her fathers
camp she told him Of the woman with
their name, AID spoke of her curious
questions. Reed at once became deep
IL interested, and early in the morning
went TO the camp. His wife and he i'm
mediately recognized each other, and a
reconciliation at once took place, and
the two camps were merged into one.
The new-found brother and sister were
the happicst mortals in Oklahoma, with
the probable exception of the husband
and wife. who will renew their youth
with a honeymoon in seeking a new
homo together, as they did years ago in
the far east.

TO STUDY GEOGRAPHY.
Begin with Your Own I:cslon and Grad
u.Olv V..a,,ch A,f

Begin with Your Cwn Region and Grad.
uaiiy Branch Out.
Perhaps q hint as to how the taste for
map study may be developed will be ac-
ceptable. Begin with q ma :, of your own
region, on which the heights Us well as
the ~horizontald dimensions are portrayed,
suggests a writer in the Chautauauan.
At any ratc, you can command such a
map of the United States. Study it,
measure it. master it, until with the
eyes shut you q see the structure of
this great territory. But in many parts
of this country it is also easy to COM
mand good local Typographical maps.
The United States geographical survey,
aided by some of the state govern
ments, supplemented sometimes by pri-
vate enterprise, is gradually publishing
accurate maps of limited areas. AS the
sheets are completed, they may be oh.
tanned by the public. Let q student
take any trustworthy map Of q district
that he knows; let him be sure that he
understands the signs and symbols en-
ploycd in its construction (for maps
have their own diverse languages, like
books and peoplc); next let him COM
pare the counterfeit prcscntmcnt with
the original, the picture with the real
ity; then let him make a scale of meas
urcmcnts, vertical nnd horizontal, of
heights and distances with which he is
familiar. He will thus become the pos
SCISSOR of what may be called q private
measuring rod, Y standard to which he
can refer NIL other geogra phical data.
lie will hold a key ly which he Gun UNI
lock the Typographical mysteries of I'M
seen lands. The habit will grow by it's
exercise. The comparative method of
study-one of the great contributions
of modern times to the advancement
of knowledgc-will conc into play.
Not only the great continental areas,
us was stated at the beginning, but
every historical land, will be found to
have its individual characteristics,
which have influenced, if they have not
controlled, the events that have trans
pired within their limits. History and
geography, like the right hand end the
left. will work together. They will
show us how physical barriers have
been overcome by spiritual forces, and
how spiritual forces have been now re-
strained and now developed by the
laws of the material world. They will
show us how far mankind has fulfilled
the primitive command to rcplcnish the
earth and subluc it.

a FIMANCiCR,s ADVICE
Suggestions for Young :ucn Who Wish to

The boy who is wanted in the busi-
ness world of to-day must be educated.
says Russell Sage in in admirable ar
tic!c on "Thc 10y That is Wanted" in
November Ladies' Home Journal. If
his parents cannot afford to give him q
hiGh-scllool or college education, he
nus learn to study without the aid of
q teacher, in the carly morning before
business begins. and in the evenings
after business hours. 1t can no longer
be t%rntlfully said that an education is
out of anyone's reach. Our splendid
school system, where one can study by
day or in the evening. has put the
priceless treasure of an education
within the reach of all. The main
thing, in the beginning, that l would
impress upon boys is one Of the great
commandments: "Ilonor thy father
and thy mother, that thy days may be
long in the land which the Lord thy
God siveth thee" The boy who re-
srccts his father and mother, who
treats his sisters and brothers with low
ing kindness, has laid q good foundn-
ton for q successful career. You will
do as Your Parents tell you, and that
certainly Will DC To study. Don't he in
u hurry TO get away from your SCHOOL
books. Iilc cares and responsibilities
OF business life will come soon enough.
Colo school as long us yoi can, and,
remember, every hour spent in study in
yoa. youth will be worth money to sou
in after life. Read good Docss-the
Bible above all. Make yourself ac-
Gnaintsd with history. Study the prog
ross of nations and tic careers of men
who ave made nations great. If You
have no library of your OWL, join one of
the numerous associations to bc found
in all cities where good healthful
books may be obtained. Study rcli-
zion. science, st;itccraft and history.
Learn to read intclligently, so that you
may turn to practical use i'll after life
the ressings of your youth. lie sure
you begin right. Do not waste time il
reading trashy books.

Perpetual Motion.
Black Hills Union.

Black Hills Union.
Twenty seven years ago a boy Of a
mechanical turn of mind was feeding
a single machine at saw mill located
at Blunrr, them Vanyille. Wisconsin
This hoy and man is found in the
name p. G. Mattox, of Piedmont. who
has been announced by the press of the
Hills as the %discoverer of perpetual
motion. For twelve years, as opport-
nnities offered, the boy and young man
labored to produce a working model.
1t looks as though Mi. Mattox had
succeeded, improbable as it may seem.
There is q walking beam thirteen
feet long provided with a double track
on which runs a ball weighing 100
pounds on the one side attached to
either end r levers carrying weights
of about 25 pounds, on the opposite
side are levers with weights Of 10
pounds. The weighted levers are SO
constructed as to be in strain as tine
ball passes from one track to the other
and thus their weight raises the beam
the grade of the tracks on the two sides
being such that a slight raising of the
beam starts tho ball on the return
track, as the ball passes or drops from
one track to the other at the end for Il
second it suspended does not tonch
either track and here is where the
lever appears to get in its work.
Won't it stop-is the question every
one asks. 1t has run continuously for
fifty hours. and was then stopped. 4
company of professors from Ho,
Springs watched it for twelve hours
when the early hours of the sabbath
forced them to adjourn. Before seeing
it we we're inclined to donbt its power
but it seems to be limited only by the
length of beam and weight of ball that
ian be used. In this model with q
beam of thirteen feet and a hundred
pound ball a weight of sixty pound:
was attached to the beam %sixteer
inches from the fulcrum and it did no
impede the speed of the machine ;
particular.

CAPTURING LION CUBS.
How tho Arabs Mansge 20 Steal Them
from the Mother.

How tho Arabs Manage 90 Steal Thorn
from the Mother.
Gerard. the famous French lion kill.
CIR, says in his Adventures" that teeth
ing is an important crisis in the life of
the lion cubs, and That n large number
of the young die during that period.
When the cubs have finished teething
the lioness leaves them for u few hours
each day, and on her return brings
mutton, carefully skinned and torn into
small pieces.
The Arabs, on discovering a litter of
cubs, watch for the departure of the
lioncss and then rob her of the whelps.
They post themselves on q high cliff or
in n tree overlooking the lair.
AS SOC MS they sec the lioncss 20
down to the plain, and are sure that the
lion is not near, they creep to the lair,
wrap the cubs in the folds of their bur.
moose in order to smother their cries,
and carry them to the edge of the
woods, where men are waiting with
horses.
One day sixty Arabs surrounded the
woods where there was IL lair, and by
shouts tried to rouse Tic ~lioncss. she,
however, rcraaiucd in her iliding-placc.
Several Arabs then crcpt into the
tl.icsct and brought out the whelps.
The Arabs. pleased with their c
cess, were retiring to their tents, think
ing they had nothing more to fear. Sud-
denly the sAcils, who wa on horseback
and a little behind his men, saw the
lioncss rushing out of the woods di.
rcctly at him.
He called, and his nephew, Mccaoud,
and his friend, Ali, ran to his aid. The
lioncss sprang at the young nephew.
who, facing her with his gun at his
shoulder, pulled the trigger when She
came within. six or seven feet. The
cap only exploded. The youth threw
the gun away and presented his left
arm wrapped in his burnoose.
The lion seized the arm and began
crushing the bones. The young man,
without a cry, drew his pistol and fired
in her breast. She dropped the arm
and bounded on Ali. who fred a ball
down her throat as she sprung ut him.
He was seized by the shoulder and
thrown down, but the l%ioncss, before
she could injure him greatly, expired
on his PROSTATE body. The nephew
died the next day.

Ono of the mo- important points of

is the headquarters of the old American
Fur Company, built by John Jacob
Aston in 1899, writes Marquis Lanza in
Frank Lcslie's Monthly. The house, q
long, rambling establishment with
dingy. low-ccilingcd corridors and an
exterior continually fresh from the
barbarous brush of the calcimincr, is
employed now as n dwelling. Within
these rooms the nucleus of the Astor
millions was formed and gradually as
su1ncd colossal proportions; and the
household word on the island as that OF
Father Marquette.
jacques Marquette, a French Jesuit
priest and the renowned explorer of the
Mississippi, was undoubtedly the first
white man to visit the island. where he
started an Indian mission. The precise
location of his chapel is not known. but
there is reason to believe that it stood
in close proximity to the Huron fort or
palisadcd village, built in 1072 and later
destroyed by fire. The grave of Father
Marquette was unknown until the
year 1871, when it we discovered in st.
lgnacc by Rev. Father Jaclser. q Catho-
lie priest.
Despite the fact that more than two
hundred years have elapsed since the
death Of Marquette, the village of
Maclkinac is rcpletc with hallowcd
memories of him. His name is always
spoken with a r~evcrential admiration.
To these simple people he stands in the
light of a hero, representing all that is
