Women Should Learn to Converse.

There seems to me to be too little atten-
ton given to teaching children to talk.
They are taught to read and write, but
they ''pick up talking. If child reads
"snatches" of paragraph he is rebuked;
if lie writes disjointedly, he is corrected. but
he is allowed to express himself orally in
fragmentary phrases, and if we catch his
meaning he does rot feel that he has gone
amiss. Weare in such haste that we do not
attend to forms of expression. The tele-
graph has encouraged condensation, and
thoughtlessness has engendered exagger,i-
ton. Between the two conversation has
suffered. But the real difficulty is want Of
thought to express, not lack of power to en-
press it, A current topics class, meeting
once week and talking over the news of
the day or the questions which are perplex-
ing wise men and women, would be help

Proposed MEASURE to GIVE Us Cur Rights on
tho Weiland Canal.

WAsurxGrox. March s3.--Retal iation
against Canada is the purpose Of = bill In
troduced In the House by Rsprest ,Ative
Chickering Of Oswego, N. Y. II prov dcs
that bencver the President il sa'isHsd that
the Canadians are discriminating 10 the usr
of the Welland canal or other canals 10
that country against thu Unihd States b.
shall suspend by proclamation the
transportation across the United States in
bond and pithout pay ment of duty, all
m rch.ndise imported or exported from
airy foreign country to Canada.
The bill was referred to the foreiln
afAirs committee this morning.. Mr.. c lick
ering appeared before the sub-c0mm tee
consisting Of McCreary, Hooker and Hit,
IN support of the bill. Mr.. Chickering
instanced the fact that New Fog
land representatives, who were always
friendly to the Canadian Pacific
R.lway, have announced their sympathy
with the bill and wi vote for it if It ONE,
before the House.
Mrs. Chickeriug explained thu, the Ca
nalian government had for long time dis
eliminated against the United States in the
use OF tho Weland canal, where no tolls
are chsrpcd to We, sells fl, log thu Canadisn
+ il.g. while charge of half cent bnshel
/. made on all shipments of grain carried In
vessels belonging to the United States.
The present law permits thi, government
to charg, Canadians for the use of-St.
Mrs Fails canal, when citizens of this
government are Disseminated against by
Canada.
The latter is now building a rival canal,
which will soon make them independent Of
st. Mays canal. When this is built it will
leave the citizens of the United States
at the mercy of the Canadians. unless their
purpose to discriminate against us is held
in check by the threat to abrogate the pres
ent privilege Of sending goods in transit
across this country in bond, without pay
ment of duty.

The Pharisec Nation.

From Kate Fields Washington.
To redeem Darkest England" General
Booth has come to this country to collect
three hundred thousand dollars! His
scheme Of home colonizing. manufacture
and filling of the soil has already alb
sorbed s650.0O0, raised in England He is
in debt, however, and tells his story to
us, hoping to soften the heart of some
millionaire. May his hope be realized, but
what commentary on England Is the
presence among US of General Booth in
the role of beggar for humahity's sake!
Think OF IT. England Is the richest coun-
try in the world. All nations pay tribute
to her She is evsrybody's creditor. She
loans money to China and Japan, and
Egypt and North and South America and
grows fat on the interest that is often
wrung from her debtors at the point of
the bayonet or with the lash Of the whip.
She has 30 much capital as to conquer
continents and islands in order to invest
1t, and yet she lets General Booth appeal
to one Of her largest debtors for q miser-
able three hundred thousand dollars.
though his Human Redemption scheme re-.
turns a profit of three and half per cent
In cashls What would England say II an
American Booth crossed the water to beg
for three hundred thousand dollars with
which to save the souls Of our criminals
the majority of whom are products Of
Europe, and largely British?

KNAPSACKS GREW LIGHT.
The Greater the Soldier the Heavier
the Load He Carried.

The Greater the Soldier the Heavier
the Load He Carried.
From the Kingston Freeman.
John s. Bray has received from a vete-
ran of the one hundred and twentieth regi-
ment a present of a knapsack carried by
Adam Imhor during portion OF the civil
war. This knapsack stirred up the remi-
niscences OF a number of old soldiers in
MI. Bray's store, and they told OF their
experiences carrying knapsack and its
weight OF material necessary for the COM
fort or convenience of the soldier, and the
change OF ideas OF the private soldier as to
what was really necessary for him to carry
during a march.
The weight usually carried by soldier
when In marching and lighting trim was a
gun, forty rounds OF cartridges, and an
eight or ten-pound knapSack When the
green soldier first started out OF camp this
knapsack usually weighed about twenty
five pounds. Each mile OF the march took
off q few pounds until nothing was left
except what was absolutely necessary. or
course he was not allowed to throw away
his gun or ammunition. He chung to his
coffee and rations. but when he got really
tired he would occasionally throw away his
overcoat and his blanket.
One veteran said: why, 1 have actually
tbrcwn away sheet of paper 10 tighten
my knapsack."
blanket was not apt TO do that more than
once, for II entailed great deal of hard
ship and suffering. Mr.. Bray said that
when he started out once for a march he
and his mess comrades became so disgust
ed with the weight Of their knapsacks that
they couldn't see what was the nse OF car
Iying big overcoat and q blanket so they
threw them away, and when night came
eight men were only able to muster one
blanket among the lot, which they used by
turns, al they slept II the open air.

An Accident on the MatterhOrn.

We were all three close together. and
Mooser could have touched them with his
ak. They were tied together. Seller pass
ed close to US, his back downward, his
head well bent up as If he were preparing
for sudden shock. Biener flew far out
against tie blue sky and the rope was
stretched tightly between them. They fell
on to the Glacier du Lion, and when the
bodies Were recovered they were still tied
together. With both the crown Of the
head was cut away. as though 1t had been
done by a sharp instrument. Sellers watch
was crushed and his left boot was missing,
although the foot was uninjured. How the
accident happened will never be known.
as no one saw them slip. am inclined to
think that Seller was climbing at the same
time as Biener, instead of waiting until
he had a firm hold, and that the former
slipped, jerking Biener off his feet. 1 am
strengthened In this belief by the position
Of the two as l saw them fly past.

TRAINING HINDOO GIRLS,
Beginning Mt Seven, She's an Accom-.
plished Housewife at Fifteen.

Beginning mt Seven, She's an Accom-
plished Housewife at Fifteen.
From the Chicago News.
The greatest care and anxiety of the Hin
doc mother is to bring up her daughter to
home life and to make her a good house
wife.
When a girl is seven years Of age the
mother teaches her to cook and to wash the
pots. Hindoos have two kinds Of washing
One is the daily washing Of everyday ap-
parel, for the clothes are changed every
morning after bathing. Every Hindoo must
battle before he takes his meals. Religion
requires that no food be cooked before the
person who cooks 1t has bathed. Hence
every woman must battle before she cooks.
A woman first gives a bath to her children,
then she takes a bath herself and thereaf-
ter goes to cook. The clothes are changed
and washed every day.
The little girl washes the smaller clothes
on a stone and hangs them for drying. She
assists her mother in many small things;
she sweeps the kitchen, she fetches the
utensils, she cuts and slices vegetables, she
pounds and grinds the spices, she takes out
the small pebbles from the rice and cleans
1t In water, and in short she does all the
petty work, assisting her mother. If she has
an infant sister or brother she feeds 1t and
lulls 1t to sleep in the cradle. She gathers
flowers and weaves them into wreaths with
which the Hindoo women adorn their hair.
The mother teaches her to sew and to en-
broider and to make her toilet, which is
simple. She has no paint for her cheeks
and no hooks and thorns in her hair. She
adorns her hair with ornamental flowers
made of gold. These are fixed on the knot
Of hair. A small round mark Of red paint
IL made on her forehead. The absence of
this mark from the forehead Of woman
indicates that she Is widow. for widows
have not the privilege of wearing It. By the

Love and n Day.

Love and a Day.
Clasped hand in hand ut dusk Of dawn,
My love was young; We wandered where
The dewy curtains night had drawn
Were rift and scattered gossamer;
Where the wax ming note Of the daylight thrills
And morning smiles on the sleeping hills.
Then far afeld joyed to stray,
Adown the shadow kissing stream,
When yet the breath of joyous day
Made glad the mornings golden dream,
And shafting sunglints fit'rng through
Flashed emerald from the lingering dew.
At wanton noon We sat us down;
The days white heat was in the air;
I caught the light from her eyes earth-brown
The suns red glow from her roosevelt hair,
I thought poor fool that time was done
And love would last from sun to sum-
And all the russell afternoon
We he'd no thought, nor time a place,
Until chilling wind eftsoon
Made cold the light in my loves face
For down the gliding Of the west
The day was faint and fain would rest.
The, came the purple evening on,
The dim light faxed the forest floor,
The spirit of the day was dead
And darkening shadows brooded DER.
I, shrinking. clasped my loves cold hand
To lead her from the twilight land.
The sun burned down the night came on,
My face was wet with gathering dew.

But my pulseess soul no rapture knew.
