Renting School books.

A substitute for the free text book
system in operation in Yankton, S. D.,
has many advantages to recommend its
adoption elsewhere. There the chill
dren rent the books, the yearly charge
ranging from 20 cents in the first grade
to IS cents in the eighth grade. The fee
entities the pupil to all the books avail
able for his grade. In this way, in most
grades, the pupils at ONE time during
the year have the use of from two to
three times as many books as they
would have under the private owner
ship or free text book system. Cost to
the parents is nominal, as compared
with the private ownership system,
while the objection raised to the free
book system, that it is socialistic, is OBJ
waited. Other advantages are that the
best books in the market can be had
without ground for opposition on the
part of the taxpayers, and that a prac.
tically unlimited supply of books can
be furnished at no additional expense
except that of interest on the money in.

NOT THAT KIND OF A CAKE

An East end car was loaded down with
shoppers, mostly women, for it was in the

proceeding at a great rate. 1t was like a
pink tea or a session of the sewing cirtle.
| But all at once a hush fell over the fair chat.
terers. A negro lad entered, bearing in his
arms an immense cake, three or four decks
high, and frosted over from pit to dome, az
| they say of a theater. There was a profusion
Of flowers by way of decoration, and delicate
traceries of gauzy lace completed the en-
bellishments. The cake was SO large that
the negro could scarcely carry it.
The cake told the whole story of the wed.
ding, the bridesmaids, the orange flowers, the
flower girls and the banquet afterward.
| Every feminine heart in that street car was
a-futter as its owner gazed speechlessly
upon the evidence of a wedding to be.
Finally, when the car stopped to let on
another passenger and everything was very
| still, one lady took courage to ask the negro
where the wedding was going to be.
"Whut weddin' |" asked the negro, his eyes
protruding..
"The 'yadding that cake is for"
"Dis ant no weddin' cake"
"No?"
"No'm. Dis yeres er cake walk cake"
There was a smile that reached from one
end of the car to the other, and very soon
conversation was resumed as before.-Mem-

The teacher hesitated a moment and
then passed the question, and as l made
