 Just why some cannot make tha v>ou, try yard paying institution is onita plain. Like everything else, it all lies with the man and how he goes about it. One fellow goes at it. He has read considerable about it. He builds large and completely fitted up houses in the most practical way, buys high-priced thoroughbred fowls and starts in to make it go. It takes such man about one season to learn that he knows little and needs experience. This is bought from small beginning and with sev- eral years actual work with them. Branching out largely at first is sell dom done by prudent or practical per son. Anybody can feed and perhaps rear a brood of chicks. To keep few hens for private use where they live upon the refuse of your table is one kind of chicken business, but when you are in it for your bread and butter, with hundreds, and perhaps thousands, under your care, it Is quite another mat ter. It can and Is paying live workers, but never drones. Don't go at 1t unless you have patience, tact and lots of am- bition. These are very essential points of value to any man who hopes to sue ceed.
 Weed out the f1ocks, disposing of real ly old stock and the undesirable young. A few good hens, well cared for, will raise more chickens next summer than if a great flock Is crowded together in GOODS.

The "King of Tanning Island" in the South Seas is being subjected to consld- erable annoyance by the obstreperous executor of his fathers estate The rolay potentate is even threatened with the appointment of a receiver on the petty ground that he has misuSed the funds of the island. Surely things have come to pretty pass if a monarch can not misuse his own funds if he wants to. and if that divinity which does hedge King" cannot hedge him enough to afford protection from minion of the law. The King is at present in San Francisco awaiting the judgment of the court to ascertain whether he is a King indeed or only a Jack.

Uses of the Alder Bush.

The common sweet alder bush, or elderberry bush, as it is often called, is regarded by neat farmers as nuisance, to be destroyed as quickly as possible. Yet it has many uses, and some farm CTS wives especially, have learned to turn 1t to profit. Its fruit when dried makes very fair pies if some acid is mixed with 1t. We have known 1t to be used with grapes, the latter being extra sour and without something to temper them requiring too much sugar. The juice of elderberries with sugar makes the standard heavy wine which old fashioned people used always to keep in the house to use when sickness made it necessary. Finally the blossoms are an excellent febrifuge, and some should al- ways be put up to use when fever from unknown causes attacks any of the family.

There is nothing new in the report that Russia has tried, without success, to obtain ObOk from France. That was known year or two ago. Nor Is there anything improbable in the report that Russia has obtained from King Menelek bit of Red Sea coast some where between ObOk and Massowah Russia has long wanted a station there, and Menelek is ready to do anything in his power to Oblige her. Italy, of course, is in no position to object. It will be all she can do to take care of Erythrea proper, without trying to re- tain the coasts of Demhoita and An kala. By far the best station on that coast is Assab, opOsite Mocha, and it may be that is what Russia has secur- ed. If so, we may presently see all Abyssinia made a province of the Great White Czar.

Trained for His Work.

MT. BOOkerT. Washington, who began his school at Tuskegee, Ala, in 1881, in a small shanty and church, with one teacher and thirty students, and has seen the venture grow to an institution containing eight hundred students and seventy-nine instructors, tells in the Atlantic Monthly how he came to be prepared for such a work.
 My earliest recollection is of a small, One-roOm log hut on large slave plan tation in Virginia After the close of the war, while working in the coal mines of West Virginia for the support of my mother, heard in some acciden- tai way of the Hampton Institute. When 1 learned that it was an inStitu. tion where a black boy could study. could have a chance to work for his board. and at the same time be taught how to work and to realize the dignity of labor, resolved to go there.
 Bidding my mother gOod-by, started out one morning to find my way to Hampton, though I was almost penni- less and had no definite idea where Hampton was. By walking, begging rides and paying for a portion of the Journey on the steam cars, I finally sue ceeded in reaching the city of Rich mOnd, Va.
 was without money or friends. l slept under a sidewalk, and by work ing on vessel next day I earned mon- ey to continue my way to the institute, where l arrived with a surplus of 50 cents.
 At Hampton I found the opportunity in the way of buildings, teachers and industries provided by the generous to get training in the classroom, and by practical touch with industrial life to learn thrift, economy and push. was surrounded by an atmosphere of business, Christian influence, and spirit of self-help that seemed to have awakened every faculty in me, and caused me for the first time to realize what it meant to be a man instead of a piece of property.
 While there I resolved that when l had finished the course of training l would go into the far South, into the black belt of the South, and give my life to providing for others the same kind of opportunity for self-reliance and self-awakening that I had found provided for me at Hampton.

The venerable Col "Dick" Thomp- son, ex-Secretary of the Navy and In- diana's Grand Old Man." says that in 1847 he procured an invitation for Abraham Lincoln to the house of eel ebrated social leader in Washington. Col. Thompson took his "long-legged, lOng-armed, ugly friend ito the hostess and presented him. Lincoln was asked to be seated on a low haSSOck, and after considerable difficulty he so disposed his arms and legs as to feel fairly com fOrtable. Then a long and animated conversation took place between him and the society woman. The day fol lowing the reception, Col. Thompson met the hostess and remarked to her: "Well, how did you like my friend Lin cOln?' ''I will tell yOu," she answer ed. ''Mr Lincoln, of all you men at my house last night, is the only one who will ever be President"

Sure Safeguard.

Among the numberless stories of the quick wit and felicitous sayings of Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes is one connect ed with the breakfast given in his hon. or by the publishing firm of Houghton, OsgOOd & Go. on the occasion of his seventieth birthday.
 Not long after the breakfast he met a friend who had been a guest on that memorable occasion, and had written one of the many bright poems which formed part of the entertainment.
 In referring to the late festivity, the doctor said to his friend:
 ''I knew there would be a good many things said that would be calculated to draw tears. I was resolved that would not cry-that nothing should make me cry; and so I went to the breakfast determined to maintain a rigid upper eyelidy'

According to the Rochester Democrat, w. A. Field, of Clean, N. r., says that he is the father of thirty-four children, thirty-One of whom are now living. Of these there were three sets of quin- tuplets and four sets of triplets by his second wife. The entire family was born at ten different births. The first wife and three of the children were burned to death in January, twenty eight years ago, at Saginaw, Mich. The survivors of the family, numbering thirty-one, are intending to have a grand family reunion next spring, and for short time place themselves on exhibition with the father and mother. The father of this surprisingly large family is 57 years old.
