Eno,,sb yersus German Universities

IF the tree is to be judged by its
fruits, we shall find it difficult to dis
pute the proposition that university
education, at all events in SO far as it
bears upon the physical sciences, is
somehow more satisfactorily managed
in Germany than in England. The the
oretical and technical output Of Ger
many is far larger, more regular and
of better quality for practical purposes
than our own. the proof being that Ger.
mauy is rapidly monopolizing the high
er and more lucrative branches of man-
ufacture, and in addition is exporting
largo numbers of technical experts

THE OPPORTUNITY CAME.
And Then He Waved Old Glory to His
Hearts Content.

Two prominent Cleveland men went
abroad last summer, and one of them
took with him miniature regulation
flag. 1t was the handiwork Of neigh
Dor, lady, and it's dainty silken folds
were attached to gilded staff.
'Taks good care Of it,, said the fair
dagmaker, "for it means protection,
you know, and when the opportunity
comes wave it for all it is worth"
Well, the opportunity didn't come for
several weeks, but all that time the lit
tie flag was within easy reaching dis
tance. At last, when the tourists came
to Frankfort-on- -the-Main, they were in
vited to dinner by an American resi-
dent, and around his hospitable table
they glowed over the glories Of Colum-
bias land until our pilgrims felt fairly
homesick.
81 made up my mind right then"
said the flag bearer, that Old Glory
would have to wave Oh some pretext
that day, even if I had to stand out in
the street and cheer for it alone.''
Well, after the dinner they went ont
to hear the band play, and then wild
idea occurred to the man with the flag.
He stationed himself to one side, where
he could catch the conductors eye, and
there he waited Pretty soon the band
master looked squarely at him, and then
out came the stars and stripes with an
eloquent flourish. The leader was "a Sc
we're looking man, with stiff gray
mustnche and a very tight uniform, but
he actually smiled and nodded. Then
he stiffened up and raped sharply on
his music stand. The musicians stiffen-
ed up, too, there was rapid fire of gut
tural directions, and then
And then the great band broke out
all at once in that splendid chorus,
'Tis the star spangled banner, oh,
long may it wave," and you may rest
assured the Cleveland man waved it
long and wildly and tried to sing, too,
and choked up over it, and the other
Americans gathered about him and sang
the best they knew how and waved their
hats and handkercniefs, like windmills,
with the staid German citizens looking
on in big eyed amazement.
~ say, do you know" said the flag
waver, "that when heard the glorious
old tune it was just like getting in sight
of Cleveland smoke again."
Well, the leader played the "Star
spangled Banner" through three times
then he whipped over to "Home, Sweet
Home," and wound up with yankee
Doodle
"Oh, we didn't do thing to that
bandmaster, said the Cleveland man.
"We just took him out and shook hands
with him all around and gave him o
fine jolly, which he couldn't under
stand, and then bought him barrel OF
beer, which he could understand. -

VISIONS WHICH WARNED.
Two Instances Where Dreams Of HorscD

dreams wherein horses figure largely.
take rank among the queerest. In the
year 1890 gentleman entered q prom

time during the summer. he wan
speeding the horse on the last Of tho
snow and wrote to his wife, who was
visiting in o distant town, that his
prospects for q race horse were rosy.
That night the lady, although not espe-
cially an admirer Of horses, dreamed
that she was sitting in the stand watch
ing the finish of the race wherein her
husbands horse was to take part. Re.
plying to the letter, she said that hin
horse would win the race, the last heat
several lengths ahead Of gray horse,
the only other one she saw in her dream,
and that the judge announced the time
2:20h. The letter caused good deal
of amusement in the family during the
months previous to the race, and finally
when the day came five horses started,
among them being dark gray. The
dream came true in every respect
the race being won in three heats, and
at the finish the gray was the only one
in it, the rest just coming into the
stretch; time, 2:20A. The dream / can

Another gentleman, who was sleeping
at an inn beside the track where his
horses were stabbed dreamed, that he saw

and fell among the straw, revealing the
horses in o state Of terror. paving and
snorting loudly. The dream was so
vivid that be awoke and fancied that
he could in reality hear the horse strik-
ing the walls Of his stall. He partially
dressed and ran ont, and not moment
too soon. Some miscreant had thrownta
cloth burning and soaked with oil

A CITY LOVE SONG.

All woodland songs our cars must lack.
In vain the meadows charms must WOO,
For in city three pair back
My love has built nest for you.
There, oak secured from duns and boros,
Well grow domestic as you wish,
And buy our poultry nt the stores,
And in the market buy our fish.
Through the long day III read and writo
And sigh that work is long to do,
And laugh with JOY, my hearts delight,
To think that work Is done for you.
And when the winter evenings come
Well bar the door and stir tho fire
And tell old tales Of youth and home
And memory and tho hearts desire.
Secure above tho city's strife,
Well hear the rushing Broadway tide,
And flowers will bloom about my wife
More fair than those that Geclied my bride
We shall not miss the woodland bower,
The music of the woodland throng,
For love shall be our golden flower,
And love shall be your golden song.

Tho Pueblo Women Arc Literally EN-
presses of Their Homes.
"The cliff people are a busy folk"
writes Hamlin Garland in The Ladies
Home Journal, in OH urticlo describing
the homes, home life aud customs OF the
cliff dwellers of the southwest-"the
most mysterious people in America, " as
he designates them. The women grind
meal and weave blankets and baskets
and make very interesting and often
beautiful pottery. The old men make
moccasins very deftly, while the young
er men so down from the cliff to the
fields to tend the growing crop, to
watch the struggling corn as it battles
against drifting hot sand and against
sudden foods-such are the extremltles
Of their climate. Each morning while !
was in Hano I heard the men at early
dawn go singing down the steep trail
down into the purple plain. Their qua
yering songs foated up to me with
strange beauty. Each morning, while
it was still dark, the women woke me
by entering the room where / lay to
grind corn, and each night l went TO
sleep TO the regular rhythm of the meal
ing stone timed to the mystical rell.
gious chant of the toiling women.
"Let it be said that there is no wom-
an slavery among these people any more
THAI umong the Navajoes. The women
arc cLicf pl operty hold rs. The house IS
generally the woman's, and descent is
through her and not through the father.
The men are seldom severe in manner,
and in Acoma and Walpi, as well as in
Laguna and Zuni, saw the men TAX
ing care of the babies and doing it with
great tenderness and smiling patience.
I saw no evidence Of any severity except
in case OF the old women. They seemed
to be the drudges Of the household in
Walpi and in Acoma, carrying wood
and bottles Of water up the steep trail,

He Alto Cabbage md Livcd.

Wonderful are the whims of tho hu-
ruan stomach. What kills one man gives
another life. One Of the strangest cases
cf craving for food on the part Of q
sick man is narrated by Mrs. Hazen in
"Our Army Nurses. F" She was at the
time (1864) nurse in the Columbian
hospital at Washington. Among her pa
tients was "boy"-though he was a
veteran of four years standing-who
had come to the hospital several months
tefore with wounded knee. This is
Ter strange story:
The surgeons had held many exami-
nations. He was failing rapidly; could
not retain anything, even cold water
causing hemorrhage of the stomach.
"What is the verdict, doctori" ! asked
one morning.
"He can live but O few days at the
longest" was the answer, "and may
die in few hours. -
"Then, doctor, please let him have
what he wants while he does live. F"
II give him into your hands, Miss
Titus Do what you please fer him.
The bandages were at once removed,
az he had complained that they were
uncomfortable. Then, as soon as the
oLher patients were cared, for / went to
market garden and bought head Of
cabbage. He had often said he wanted
something green, if only "boiled grass. "
When the cabbage was cooked, 1 carried
him some, with cider vinegar, and fed
him.
He ate all there was on the plate,
asked for more, which was brought,
and still third and fourth plate, till
ho had eaten the whole cabbage
From that dinner, in NJ y, he began
tc improve, and on the 18th Of June :
started with him on stretcher for his
home in Pennsylvania, as his life even
then depended upon his diet, and such
meals as he ate would have made c we'll
man sick.
He recovered, but had stiff knee.
