The late D. L. Moody was practi-
cal man, as the educational institu-
tions founded by him about his
birthplace attest. He believed in
equipping earnest young men and
women for efficient service in a world
which sadly needed their valor and
strength, properly directed. The
home life was dear to him, and neigh
bors have many incidents of his filial
devotion, and of the sweet, devoted
life which he delighted to lead away
from the glamour and excitement of
the outside world. AS result, much
attention is given in his school for
girls to fitting them for the home life
which he foresaw must be the portion
of most of those going forth from the
institution. In broader sense, all Of
his life work was for those prin ciples
which go to make the home life noble
and true; to make men and women
better, and better fitted for living as
husbands and wives, as fathers and
mothers.-Good Housekeeping.

BUILDING 4 SILO.

Editor Mirror and Farmer:-I have
a space ten feet square where I want
to put in a silo. This space isl!seven
feet below the floor and thirteen feet
above. Would it be best to put in5a
square silo or round silo and if
round one what is the best way to
make it?
An old subscriber.
Our friend has asked a question
that has doubtless appeared to every
farmer who has contemplated build
ing silo. While the round silos are
used extensively as an outside silo,
and give general satisfaction so far as
we know, there cannot be sufficient
advantage to a round silo in the place
described to balance the space that
would be wasted in its use. 1t is
probably true as claimed that there is
less liability to injury to ensilage in
the round than in the square silos, on
account of the absence of corners in
the former, but when the ensilage is
properly put into the squire silo and
the corners give attention this less is
very slight indeed. We advise our
friend to build square silo and thus
utilize the entire space, pack the en-
silage with care, treading it wei in
the corners, and there will not be loss
to cause any particular harm.-Mirror
and Farmer.

There is a beautiful jewel confided
to your care, girls. 1t is the jewel of
health. Now while your cheeks are
rosy, your eyes bright and strong,
and your steps elastic; while you feel
a joy in stir and motion just because
your bodies are full of vitality and
thrilling with the pleasure of being
young and strong, it is a bit hard
to pay attention to such prosy things
as the care of ones health. Nor do I
believe it is necessary or even wise
thing that a girl should be always
nursing and coddling herself, watch
ing for draughts, being afraid to eat,
and fearful of going up and down
stairs. But 1 do think it is supre nelly
important for every girl to study to
form simple and right habits and
firmly adhere to them in the face of
temptation to do otherwise. She may
then safely leave her health to take
care of itself. These habits are, first,
to so dress that every portion of the
body will be uniformly clothed and
the weight of the clothing hung upon
the shoulders; second, eat plain, sim
pie, we'll cooked food at regular in
tervals; third, so alternate work and
sleep, exercise and rest, that the body
shall have it's fair amount of each;
fourth and last, work and sleep al
ways in well ventilated rooms and
secure plenty of out door exercise.
These few simple rules formed into
habits will protect the precious jewel
of health from everything, save acct
dent, and that must be left by faith
to God.

1.-THE Congress of the Americanists,
held later at the Paris Exposition, was
composed of savants of International
fame, who have made studies in Perm,
Mexico, Yucatan and in prehistoric
America generally. The director of
the Smithsonian Institute and of the
Brooklyn Institute and Mrs. McClurg
were delegates from the United States
to this Congress. Many of the most
prominent men Of France are enthu-
siastic students of early America.
Among these are the Duo de Loubat,
the Marquis de Peralta, Prince Bona
parte, the Comte de Turenne, Comte
de la Vaulx and Comte de Charency.
Mrs. McClurg addressed this distin-
guished society, and the New York
Tribune says made the great hit of
the congress.
Mrs. Potter Palmer, United States
Commissioner, paid especial compli-
ments at her receptions, TO Mrs. Mo
Clurg; the Duke dc Loubat gave an
elaborate dinner in her honor; and
at the Salons of the 'sSocietie de
% avants, ? at banquet given distin-
Guished scientists then in Paris, Mrs.
McClurg was accorded special honors.

A DISTINGUISHED WOMAN.

Mrs. Virginia d. McClurg, who until
a few years ago resided in Morris
town, well known writer,
who has for long time been
greatly interested in the history of
the Pueblo Indians, has returned from
Paris, where she was in attendance at
the Exposition. From recent issue
of the Gazette. of Colorado Springs
where Mrs. McClurg resides, we quote ::
"As student of archaeology and
ethnology Mrs. McClurg has distin-
guished herself at the Paris Eposi-
ton, where she represented the United
States at the International Congress
of Ethnologists, and by invitation do
livered a lecture before that body of
savants on the subject Of The Pueblos
and Cliff Dwellings of the South
western Plateaus of the United
States. = This was so highly appre-
ciated that dignitaries Of Paris made
complimentary speeches in honor of
Mrs. McClurg at splendid reception
given the congress in the Salon Of the
Hotel de Vile, and at grand BAN
quet given by the congress Mrs. Nc
Clurg was accorded the seat of honor
