Disconnected Children.

Parents sometimes complain that
their boys and girls would rather spend
their evenings anywhere else than at
home, and want advice as to the best
method of curing such an evil. When
we read such complaint, it always
occurs to us that the chief trouble may
lie in the fact that they do not make
home a pleasant place for their chill
dren. Is it cheerful at the hearth and
at the table? Does the father strive
to make home bright and happy, or is
he silent, moody and unsociable? Are
his children furnished with proper
supply of books, papers, magazines,
and such other means of amuzement
and improvement as their natures re.
quire? Does the mother make friends
and confidantes of her daughters, or
does she merely dole out to them food
and clothing? Do the parents, in short,
sympathize in the JOYS and griefs, the
hopes and fears of their children, or do
they ignore all that is most essential to
the Happiness and genial culture of
childhood? Whenever parents find
that their offspring are beginning to
prefer any other place before home,
let them ask themselves these questions,
and they may discover the secret of
their children's unfortunate prefer
ences.-N. Y. Ledger.

The Force Of a Cyclone,

Careful estimates of the force of a
cyclone, and the energy required to
keep full fledged hurricane in active
operation, revealed the presence of q
power that makes the mightiest efforts
of man appear as nothing in compari-
son. A force fully equal 10 four hun
dred and seventy three million horse
power was estimated as developed in a
West Indian cyclone. This is about
fifteen times the power that is creatable
by all the means within the range of
mans capabilities during the same
time. Were steam, water, windmills
and the strength of all men and ami
mails combined, they could not at all
approach the tremendous force exerted
by this terrible storm.

THE SOUTHWESTERN LAKES.
One Third Of the Minnesota Lakes Have
Disappeared,

According to the st. Paul Pioneer
Press, something like one third of the
1000 lakes in Minnesota eleven years
ago have already disappeared or are
likely to permanently disappear from
the beautiful landscape of what has
been fttingly called the Lake State. "
Minnesota has long been famed as pos
sesslng greater number and variety
of beautiful lakes than any other sec
tion of the country and their gradual
disappearance can not be received ex-
cept with regret and serious thought.
Our contemporary has made an ex-
tensive canvass of Minnesota and Da-
kota and says that there seems to be
no instance in which even the largest
and deepest lakes, though nourished by
spring fed streams have not considera-
bly, diminished in volume.n In many
cases the lakes have entirely disap.
peared and "cultivated fields now oc
cupy their rich bottoms, formerly GOV.
cred by from ten to twenty five feet of
water
lnquiring for the cause of this con-
.dition, the Pioneer Press finds it is the
diminished rainfall of the last ten, and
especially the last six or seven years,
and also in the encroachment of agri.
culture on the basins of water supply.
Before the soil was broken up for
farming purposes, it says, "the native
sod formed thatched roof from which
within the limits of the drainage area
the water from rain or snow flowed
freely into the streams and lakes. But
when the plowman broke up this roof
every furrow cut off the natural drain
age, and it was absorbed in the sandy
loan, which forms the previling soil of
both Minnesota and Dakota.n
There can be no questioning this
diagnosis of an undoubted condition
which prevails not only in Minnesota,
but in Wisconsin, Northern Illinois and
throughout the great West We can
only look to an increased rainfall ex-
tending over period of years to satu-
rate the water sheds and bring back
the level of the lakes to something like
their former height.
Lake Michigan has been lower this
year than ever known in the memory
of man and from the same causes that
have dried up so many of the lakes of
the Northwest. 1t would not be sur
prising if the secret sources of Lake
Michigan's supply have drawn upon
the springs that have fed many lesser
lakes. If this is true it will take sew
eral successive years of increased preci-
pitation to raise it to its average level.

We met Major D. NJ. Coffman the

of Olney, and knowing that he was
from Tennessee and conversant with

in Tennessee. In fact, Tennessee is a

Some Novel Races.

A London newspaper some years ago
contained an account of strange sort
of contest which two noblemen once
got up for their own amusement 1t
consisted of matching flock of tur-
keys and flock of geese for race on
the London and Norwich road, in the
middle of the last century. The tur-
keys would insist upon flying into the
roadside trees to roost; while the geese,
keeping up a steady waddle all night,
reached London from Norwich two
days ahead. The same journal also
mentions the feats of Hon. Tom Coyen-
try's sprinting pig. In 1903 the speedy
animal was matched against cele-
brated runner, and started strong
favorite on the day of the race, which
she won with ease. The pig had been
trained to run the distance each day
for its dinner. Another strange con-
test of this time took place between
two sporting noblemen, who raced
against each other on windy day on
Hampstead Heath, one running back
wards in jackboo!s, and the other hold
ing up an open umbrella, and running
forwards.-Harper's Round Table.

Big Fruit Farm in Georgia.

On the Rumph orchards, between
Marshallville and Fort Valley are
100000 peach trees and 10000 pear
trees. These orchards, during the good
fruit seasons, have been marvelously
profitable. One peach crop sold for
$4,000 and another for $4,000. Mr..
Rumph has also the largest plum or
chard in the world. There are 1000
Japanese plum trees on the place. and
in the nursery near by 100000 seed
lings, worth $4,000. There are also
10000 raspberry bushes in cultivation,
