A Doubtful Dainty,

In the dingy restaurants frequented
by tbs lower orders of Rome, Flor
ence and Naples, dish composed of
the harmless wood serpent's flesh is
regarded as something of a dainty.
Parisians of the inferior classes are
also great eaters of fried snakes, but
unwillingly so, for the reptiles are
palmed off on them as cells. The
snakes are caught in the wilder part
OF thu Vincennes wood and brought
up to special market near the Place
de la Republique. It's probable, how
ever, Stat even if the members of the
poor>. classes who occasionally
indulge in fried or stewed cells were
apprised of the fraud practiced at
their expense they would evince no
loathing nor even lack of appetite,
seeing that they are ready to devour
not only horse flesh, but meat of mule,
donkey and dog any day in the week.

When anybody looks at her
She curtsies most precisely:

A village like toy one
Its tiled roofs rise meath dappled skies
Whose light showers don't annoy one
lis clean and neat. and green and sweet

And Prudence dwells in Primrose Street
Inquire there If you doubt it.
She is so careful she will say
Lest she should tib, though blindly,-

The big best cup and fills il
And brings the parsons tea herself,
And never, never spills IL
The parson holds it on his knee,
And sips it at his leisure:

Miss Lucy beams with pleasure
Her slippers ne'er were known TO squeak;
Her frills are crisp and snowy
Her nut-brown hair is meek and sleek

Japanese Schools Without DIsclpline.

japanese Schools Without Discipline.
An American girl who went to Japan
to teach in the schools says that
japanese children are never noisy in
the presence of their elders. To the
same effect is the testimony of Miss
Bacon, who, in her book, "A Japanese
Interior" thus describes her first in
PRODUCTION to the school customs of tls
country.
After while the principal comes
forward and bows, and all the children
bend themselves nearly double in re-
turn; then he makes very short
speech and bows simultaneously. 1t
is very pretty custom, and | do not
see why, when speaker bows to his
audience, the audience should not re-
turn the compliment II seems quite
the natural and polite thing to do.
The first thing that one notices in a
japanese school, after an experience
with American schools, is the absolute
absence of discipline, or of any neces-
sity for it. The pupils are all so per-
fectly ladylike that politeness re-
strains them from doing anything that
is not exactly what their teachers or
superiors would wish them to do.
There is no noise in the corridors,
no whispering in the classes, nothing
but the most perfect attention to what
the teacher says, and the most earnest
desire to be careful and thoughtful
always of others, especially of the
teachers.
Mine says that in addition to this
there is in the Peeresses school a
most remarkably high sense of honor,
so that the teacher can be quite sure
that her pupils will never be guilty of
cheating or shamming, or trying to
improve their standing by any false
methods. 1t is very interesting TO me,
in reading over the names of my class
list, to notice that some of them VIE
famous in Japanese history long be-
fore Columbus discovered America.
Somehow the centuries of honor in
which their families have been held
have told upon their daughters, and
they are ladies in the finest sense of
that much-abused word, even when
dressed in such shapeless and dowdy
clothes that beggar woman in
America would turn up her nose at
them.

the power of greedy capitalists to

Let congress impeach Mr.. Carlisle
for issuing bonds illegally, and then
hire somebody to horsewhip him for
his whining, sanctimonious hypocrisy
in pretending that he was driven,
greatly to his sorrow, to take the step
to save the credit of the firm. Mr..
Carlisle knew that all his SWIVEL
ing talk about bonds being the only
way to AVOID a deficit was false. He
could have coined the seigniorage.
Let congress issue 5000, 100000 of
good, crisp fiat" money based on all
the credit, and all the wealth, and all
the labor, and all the land, and all the
patriotism Of all the nation, and per-
NIT men OF small secm tiles to get the
use OF small amounts directly from the
government on just as easy terms as
the national bankers now get the
money which they dole out to the
helpless people at their own usurious
rates. Let every member of our great
national firm have a fair field and no
favor. 1t could be done as well as
not. And men now sick of life and
scoffing at the flag would pick up hope
and heart, and patriotism would so
abound that we should need no forts
nor arsenals to defend our land of
thrifty, happy homes

DURING the summer it was stated
by all the plutoc:atic dailies that the
trouble was in deficiency of bank re-
serves. That is, the money had been
drawn out of the banks because of a
lack of confidence. Now the same
papers are sta ting that the bank re-
serves are so ponderous as to cause
business depression. That is, there
is too much confidence now. The fact
is, the old plutocratic dailies, that
sneeze every time Wall street usurer
takes snuff, either don't know what
they are talking about or lie like

fdriously. After fash and roar the
rain came down in torrents.
The surveyors quickly tethered their
horses and took refuge under their
baggage wagon, every man crouched
beneath his blanket for protection
The worst of the storm had passed
and the sky gave more light, when
rushing sound was heard like the con-
tinual fall of heavy body of water.
The guide raised his head to listen,
frowued slightly, rose, walked awaya
few yards, shaded his eyes with his
hand and looked intently up the val
ley.
cit out O. thar quick, boys, and
make ready for trouble" he cried.
faint no use runnin, so keep cool
an make the best Nv it. A stampede
is on us"
The frightened men got up in an in
slant and stood huddled together,
trembling with fear and drenched by
the rain.
Whats to be done?" asked the
engineer
There's one thing and one thing
only. This here bag O. salt NV Bill
Hicks i'll huv to be throwed away" the
guide replied. Before he had finished
speaking he put the bag of salt on the
nearest horse, mounted and dashed
away to meet the advancing herd.
This was daring adventure, but he
knew it afforded the only hope OF saw
ing himself and the Others.
He rode up within twenty-five yards
of the terror-stricken cattle before he
turned, tackled to the left, and poured
white stream of salt across their
path.
As the leaders slackened their pace,
those in the rear came piling down
upon them, and many were thrown to
the ground. All seemed to have
scented and seen the salt, and all
were crazy to taste it.
After the guide had gone entirely
across their front he turned and tackled
to the right. Thus he went from one
side to the other until he reached the
baggage wagon where the men stood.
BY this time the whole herd had
slackened its career. Painting and ex-
hausted, the cattle came trotting leis-
urely around the little party.
This is one case in ten" said the
old hero as he rode up to the men.
Pointing up the valley which was
dotted with dead and dying cattle, he
concluded with, "Thar's dead beef
enough up yunder to keep us a-goin'
till doomsday."-Nate A. Tefft, in

Banning Around, Democrats Quiet.
ID. NJ Woodbury.. the well-known lawyer

liza, where Mrs. Woodbury. will visit
friends. Mr. " oodbury will return i'm
mediately and look over the political stu
ation in Seattle for a few days before going
back to Anacortes.
Mr.. Woodbury. says that the business
men generally in skagit county have not
as much reason for complaint on account
OF the hard times as some other portions
of the state, the natural resources OF the
county keeping them up and securing
their foundation. He says that the farm
ers, except those In line with The recent
Hood. are hopeful and large crop with
living prices is assured. Speaking Of the
political situation. he said:
"The Republicans are doing a good deal
OF lively work just now preparing for the
coming county convention. IL looks as If

Joiner and Treasurer Dunlap will be re-
nominated without much opposition. For
