No more than any other citizen will
the American fercst owner or lumber,
man "sln against light in the conduct
OF his business when It has been fairiy
brought home to his convictions that
the methods he has heretofore pursued
are not only detrimental to the broad
est interests Of the country, but are
certain, II continued, to place his call
ing on the list OF things that were. He
needs but 10 be satisfied ON these
points, and to have better methods ex-
hibited as both practicable and profit
able, to induce the general adoption Of
such methods. Through newspaper
articles, pamphlets and lectures he has
already become fairly conversant with
the evils Of prevailing methods in
using or rather misuslng, our forests.
What Is now needed Is the spread of
minute and correct Information as to
the practical application OF scientific
forestry. II Is a wise STEP therefore,
that Just taken by the national forestry
bureau, IN offering TO send free of
charge 70 all owners Of timber lands
and wood lots a book of instructions
as to the best methods of harvesting a
forest crop. Further than this, it will,
so far as the funds of the department
VIII permit, furnish to every owner or
standing timber or wood lots, working
plans for the harvesting of his particu-
lar tract or tracts. Owners Of small
tracts win receive assistance without
cost Owners Of large tracts, involving
difficult problems Of working, will
share IN the expense of the solution Of
these problems. A government agent
Is sent on application to look over the
tract Of woods or timber. He examines
the tract, shows how tho merchantable
timber may best be handled or preserv-
ed, and how the cut-over portions can
best be reforested A person wishing
to take advantage of this offer by the
Government can do so by applying to
Clifford Plnchot, forester, Department
Of Agriculture, Washington. ID. O."
There can be little doubt that the de-
mand for the intelligent guidance thus
offered win be large. And It Is signlf-
cant that the advance Of forestry to the
position Of scientific calling Is draw
Ing "back to the soil" as It were, no
small proportion Of the intellectual
youth of the country, whose opportuni-
ties have heretofore been largely con
strued as limited to the professions of
law, medicine and divinity. Clifford
Pinchot, who has succeeded Prof. Fer
now as forester In the Department of
Agriculture, Is a graduate Of Yale and
many other graduates OF that and 9th
or universities are enthusiastically
pressing into the openings afforded
10y the awakening OF the nation to the
| Importance Of forestry.

We Americans are in too much Of a

ton In the developing methods and
meantime lose sight Of the power they

them excessive freedom Of speech and

A mother belongs on a pedestal of puri-

Hypnotism Is stili the subject OF sci,
entlhc experiment in France, especially
In the salpetrlere and Nancy schools
Dr. Rene Potelet In a recent interview
holds that II is impossible to hypnotlze
an unwilling subject, and that women
are much more easily influenced by
hypnotic suggestion that men because
a majority OF them suffer either from
hysteria or neurasthenia, while among
men three 10 ten are hysterical Dr.
Potelet's experiments are Interesting
as study In what may be called the
morals Of hypnotism. Among other
facts he has demonstrated that qs q
rule a patient after having been hyppos
tized once or twice has a great liking
for the person who thus influences her
and win readily do his bidding unless
he suggests something to which her in
stincts or education objects. He also
thinks that In case the patient has a
dislike to a person that dislike may be
cultivated by the experimental until
she Is willing. for Instance, to write a
wiz or even 20 commit murder at his
dictation. In this opinion Or. Korner
also comedies. In view Of these dec
larations and the possibilities they
open up the subject Of hypnotism Will
probably soon demand the attention OF
lawmakers, especially In France.

No man wishes to have as the pre-
siding genius Of his household a woman
with whom self is the supreme ruler
of life and actions. lie wants to come
home to the loving ministrations Of a
pair Of unselfish hands that will have
his slippers warmed and a coy chair
waiting in readiness for him, while her
ears are ever ready to listen to the con-
fdences Of the day, and her lips though
sealed as to her own domestic worries,
will utter loving, sympathizing words
to smooth away all the Earring elements
of business.

find in 1.-THE one woman" and the girl
who would fit herself for the position
of wife and mother must escape from
the hurry and excitement Of the age
and by taking things quietly conquer

COURAGE


Because I hold Il sinful to despond,
And will not let the bitterness Of life
Blind me with burning tears, but look
beyond
It's tumult and strifel
Because ] lift my head above the mist,
Where the sun shines and the broad
breezes blow,
BY every rny and every raindrop kissed
That Gods love doth bestow;
Think you find no bitterness at all;
No burden to be borne, like Christians
pack?
Think you there are no ready tears to fall,
Because l keep them back2
Why should hug life's ills with cold re-
serve,
To curse myself and all who love me ?
Nnyl
A thousand times more good than de-
serve
God gives me every day.
And in each one of these rebellious tears
Kept. brayely bpck he makes a rainbow

INC we1l-Dressed Woman,

Mary Katharine Howard gives seri-
Gus consideration to the art of looking
ones best in an article showing what
is good taste in dressing, in the Won
ans Home Companion. 49,
1.-THE well-dressed woman is not only
well gowned, but all the small details
Of her toilet are. given consideration.
Her hair, Skin and nails show evidences
of care and palnstaking, and. her cloth
ing has not only been ken made but is
well kept. Always try to look your
best, and that the game is well worth
the candle will show in the influence
upon your home husband and children.
The well-dressed woman is not the one
who dresses the most extravagantly,
or employs the most fashionable dress
maker; nor Is she the one who affects
all ultra styles and fads in dress; but 1t
Is she who is always consistently dress
ed with regard to time, place, occa-
sion. age and the size of her husband
or fathers income. We all owe q duty
to our families, ourselves and society
at large to make the best of ourselves
In every way, and to be always well
dressed is one Of the ways Of doing it."

CTR we want the lives Of our girls
and women on the farms 10
Il mean more. their lives must,
first of all, he made easier" writes Ed
ward Box, Of 1.-THE Girl Who Feels $50
lated" In the Ladies' Home Journal
"There Is too much mental work being
done on our farms by wives and daugh-
ters which ought to be done by hired
help. If the women on our farms could
form among themselves leisure guilds
and devise ways and means to have
some of their work done for them, and
not do It all themselves, the Initial step
would be taken toward the emanclpa-
ton and freedom from isolation OF
thousands of women. See, for exam
pie, what can be done in town for the
Improvement Of everybody in 1t, and
start, If you will, with public library.
There Is a public gallery Of prints OF
the best paintings; of good photographs
"a gallery made as the nucleus for an
amateur photograph club, with sum
mer 1aunts and an exhibition in the
winter. There is a collection to be
made for such a gallery Of specimens
of all the rocks, and plants, and flow
ers, and insects Of the place-the finest
material for pleasant winter evening
studies and classes in natural history.
There is the organization of band for
music in the summer evenings on the
green, with refreshments served by
girls to raise money for some other OBJ
tect; a concert or lecture in the fall,
perhaps. There are reading classes and
dramatic clubs to be formed for the
winter. There is a woman's club for
the study Of current events and books
a farmers club for the men for the dis
cussion of agricultural science and
economics; a sewing club for the girls
a Misunderstanding club for the boys; a
debating society for the boys; branch
Of the Chautauqua circle; a King
Daughters circle for some specific
nelghborhood need or purpose; an art
exhibition of the pictures from the
magazines; a singing school for a con
cert During the winter; a neighborhood
guild for girls; a guild for men and
women for the betterment Of good
roads and the planting of hedges by the
side Of them; a dinner club for young
men, where each member gives one
dinner to the club during the season a

A Household Disgrace.

There is no justification for the feast
and famine principle or the ''blue Mon
day" idea in the home. They are ever
an arraignment against the intelligence
and womanliness of the mistress, moth
er and hOmemaker. 1t Is the boast Of
some wives that their husbands accept
uncomplalnlngly whatever is put be-
fore them, be It's quality what It may.
Alas, that any woman should make a
boast so self-accusing! And, alas, that
any good but, mistaken man should be-
come a party to selfish neglectfulness
and indolehce by his complaisance!-

What Alaska Owes to Cahdic-Fish.

When the Alaskan Is showed in, and
is without a light he inserts the tail
of a candle-fsh into a crack In the tn
bic, and touches a match 10 It's nose.
1t gives a clear three-candle- power
light. The backbone Is largely formed
OF phosphorus, which fully accounts
for the strength of the fame and the
heat developed. The substitute for
cOdllver oil retards rapid burning, as
tallow acts in an ordinary candle.
The fish Is valuable as food. It may
also be used as a substitute for cod
liver oil, which, aiding the natural
heat Of the body, serves as a protection
from the severe cold. 1t Is to be hoped
that scientists win discover a way by
