there, far from all of my friends, and
then not loving my husband. No, sir:
1 will not throw my life and happiness
away in such manner. You may
keep my picture, if you desire, but do
not see why you should care for it.
You need not write again, as this de-

to you, as my hospital work has alb

now to congratulate you upon your APP

both Your letter. so bubbling over
with happiness, makes my heart heavy

man. 1 was fattered by the atten-

fell desperately in love. l believe he
was honest in his intentions and love,
but he was am bilious. There came a
time when matrimonial alliance with
a rich and pOwerful family was deSira-
BILE, and I was forgotten. Years have
passed since then, and the old lover
has not come back to me. The lawyer
is now in congress, but the people of
the west took fancy TO the ranchman

Submarine Fountains.

The designs for the Kansas state
building, selected by the managers,
were submitted by Seymour Davis
The building will attract general and
favorable attention among other state
buildings.
The glass dome in the center and the
large conservatory roof over the rear
portion, that is to contain the natural
history exhibit, furnish sufficient light
So that the wall space is not broken
with windows The construction Is so
arranged that a general view of the in
side can be had the moment a person
enters the building. Ample provision
is made for writing rooms, ladies' and
gentiemen's parlors and lavatories-
The broad portico, fourteen feet wide,
in front of the second story, is one of
the many good features of the build
ing.
The building is arranged to afford
IS. 934 square feet of floor space upon
the first floor. Of this amount 4.05S
square feet in the rear of the building
is intended for the natural history col

FaIlibiIity.

The necessity which teachers are UNI
der of bong perfectly sure of theil
statements or else of being not toe
positive in making them was illustrated
recently by an incident of actual occur
renee in public high school A pupil
was reading during recitation in Eng
lish literature while the teacher, with
no book in his hands, and with folded
arms, walked up and down the recita
ton room.
Hypocrisy, says La Rochefoucauld,
is the homage which vice pays to vice,
the pupil read.
THAT is very true" said the teacher
but don't say homage; say 'omage

Coinage" said the pupil. obediently.
''Read on, now"
''Sir," said the pupil, may please
read the note at the foot of the page?'
You may do So"
The pupil read: Homage In pro
nouncing this word the h is frequently
omitted by uneducated persons II
should always be sounded"
In some cases there is absolutely
nothing to be said, and on this occasion
the teacher said it-Youth's Compan

Valuable Documents Left to the Tend er
Mercy of Rats.

Mercy Of Rats.
When we take into consideration the
Importance Of public records, docu.
ments, historical papers, books and
relics. we cannot but be surprised that
there is so little care bestowed on til cir
condition, and that such inadequate
provision is made for their pres emit
safe-keeping and future preservation.
There are numbers of libraries
where there are literally no precau-
tions taken; where books aud papers
are piled upon the floor, as in the con-
gressional library at Washington,
somewhat after. the fashion Of cord
wood, the soft paper presenting most
inviting place of retreat for rats and
mice, which often almost overrun the
buildings. Priceless treasures are
destroyed in this way-treasures which
no amount of labor or money can re-
place. .
If history is worth making, the
materials of which history is made are
worth preserving. And this, with the
materials which are within reach of
all builders, is by no means difficult.
If a lining OF wire netting, with half
!! inch mesh, is placed between tho
plaster and the studding, and similar
lining is laid under the floor, there will
be but little danger of annoyance from
these pests. Brass or steel plates may
be riveted upon the edges of doors. if
there are Indications of attacks from
such quarters. This netting is much
cheaper than the wire lath which is rec
ommended for this purpose. and has
the additional merit that even the most
inexperienced person can manage it
Care should be taken to select such
widths as will join to the best adyan-
tage, the edges being in all cases so
placed as to touch each other, and Sc
cured with small staples, such as are
used for putting up poultry netting.
Even if buildings are finished it is
wise to line the walls and cover the
floors in this way. If necessary, new
flooring should be placed over the

.FARMERs snouLp AID.

They Can Contribute Materially Toward
Making the Kansas Exhibit at chicago =
Success.
To the end that the farmers of the
state may be stimulated to their best
efforts to make the Kansas exhibit at
the worlds fair a success, Secretary
Mohler, Of the state board of agr:Sult-
ure, has issued a circular which con-
tains many valuable suggestions to the
agricultural classes He advises that
the farmers should select a piece of
ground well adapted to the growth of
given farm product. then by the use
OF fertilizers and the highest culture
known to the art place the ground in
the best possible condition for the pro
duction OF choice products He also
advises that an agricultural society be
organized in each county where no So
ciety exists now and arrange to hold a
fair next fall. offering liberal premiums
for the growth of extraordinarily fine
samples of farm products The
choicest of these should be sent to the
state fair. and all these products should
then be turned over to the board OF
worlds fair commissioners
Again. as further iuducement to or
ganize agriculture societies he adds
that by the organization of such So
cleCeS couutleS become connected with
the state board of agriculture, being
entitled under certain conditions to q
delegate to the annual meeting OF the
board with expenses paid. The dele
gate for the time being is an ex-ofnS9
member of the board and is entitled t1
all the rights and privileges Of meme
bers of the board proper. And, be-
sides, in case a fair is held by. The
Societv the law authorizes the rzu@
ment of $500 from the county treasury
to assist the society in paying
premiums While in other years there
may be a question as to whether fair
ought or ought not to be held, there
ought to be no question about it Tho
year Every county should hold fair
and thus contribute its mite to the sue
success of $he Kansas exhibit n the

. The Funeral Was Postponed.

AS an example of unrewarded, &c
centric thrift an anecdote told to the
Journal is worth recording. though it
does touch upon funereal joking.
Some forty years ago a Massachusetts,
goodwife lay in her bed apparently
dying with consumption. AS the fam-
lily lived four miles from the under
taker and pastor, and as the roads
were badly blocked with snow, the
husband, when called to the village on
business on Tuesday decided-thought-
full man!-to save an extra journey in
that bitter weather by engaging the
minister and undertaken at once and
appointing the funeral for Friday. In
some way Wednesday the sick woman
heard of this, and. arousing herself
from her supposed dying condition, de-
clared: ''There'n be no funeral in this
house this week. The funeral was
postponed. Friday it took place-forty
years after it was originally set. The
husband is still living at the age OF
eighty. Boston Journal
