= Is the query, "What shall we do
with our girls?' to become serious
economic problem in the UnitedStates? t?
It is declared that the excess of wo-
men over men in New York City is
$4,000. There has long been, from a
matrimonial point Of view, great num-
bers of superAuous women in New
England. But the surplus of women
in the East, it has always been point
ed out. is Offset by surplus Of men
in the West. Now, however, comes
word from Colorado that men are de-
clining there. Recent statistics show
that women outuumber the men.
- Every now and then some million
aire arises to assure the world that

Of the matter.

1t is a Cad Habit.

"You ought to call attention to the
harm which GENES from eating roasted
coffee" said a King street grocer, "and
unless am wrong the habit seems to be
growing. 4 few grains of the roasted
beans are not bad to taste, but it is q
habit which grows. Now out there by
che door have several sacks Of the
roasted article and they are all open.
1t would surprise you to see the num-
Der 0f people who stcr and pick up
half q handful of grains and then eat
them with evident relish. The ladies
do this and I suppose they get the habit
from constant trips to the pantry. 1t
looks harmless, but it is not.
"Only this morning." continued the
grocer. 81 was reading q dispatch
from Indiana which told of tho hor-
rible death of woman who had been
addicated to the habit of eating the
roasted beans. She started in on a
small scale-took only few grains ut
time, because the taste was pleasant,
and she got 80 that she ate coffee every
time she went into the pantry. She
was eating cup day at the time of
her death. She had horrible pains and
died after the most intense suffering.
1t is bad habit and people should be
warned against it."--Neus and Courier.

the pulp rots and seers away into the

The seeds are sold to the Chicago

The price varies from to Is cents a

account Of the large yield. The yield
to the acre runs from $50 to 500 pounds
which. as the land Is worth only S. or
less, makes a good return. With an
income Of so5 and the cost Of raising
estimated at IS to $12 an acre. giving
fair wages for all work. this makes
one Of the most profitable crops that
the western Kansas prairie lands can
raise. In addition to the melons
threshed for seed there are few
hundred to be sold for eating. often
making quite an addition TO the re-
turns OF the year. 1t is estimated by
the farmers engaged that the crop Is
far better than any Of the grains when
the price is an average one. as there
is seldom a failure.
Kearney county Is this year the GEN.
ter Of the melon raising district.
Among the farmers who are engaged
largely in the business are G. n.

ser. H. c. Wills and William Logan,
Of Deerfleld. These have from fifteen

market for melons for eating. seed

an income that is satisfactory.

THE MATTER OF GENDER.
It's Humors as Exemplified in Var.
lou Curious Languages.

From the Pail Mall Gazette.
There is fun which the vulgar do not
suspect in the study Of languages. Eu-
ropean tongues, springing from the
same root, except Basque and Magyar
and Turkish, have been drilled into un-
iformlty Of structure. They give no no.
tion Of the tricks and complications
which savage men devise to express
their simple thoughts. But the reader
must not suppose / am more learned
than himself in this science; 1t is only
in miscellaneous skimming of books
that a few odd little examples have
impressed themselves upon my memory.
Observe the detail of gender. 1t seems
to us that nature itself has regulated
that matter once for all. In most Ian
guages, of course. inanimate things
are treated as masculine or feminine; /;
everybody knows that our forefathers
did the same thing long ago. But. in
any case, male, female and neuter gen.
ders exhaust the possibilities. You
cannot have more than three genders.
or less than two, for the sexes must be
distinguished. SO it appears to the
civilized mortal. But an Australian OF
DAILY river contrives to recognize four.
while an Algonquin Of North America
and a Dravidian Of India have two, in
deed, but they are not male and fe-
male For the DAILY river person in.
sists that plants shall have a gender
Of their own; the Algonquin and the
Dravidian agree that 1t Is the distinc-
tion Of living and dead. not that of
sex, which should be maintained. The
great Fulah nation also ignores male
and female, making one comprehensive
gender of human beings and everything
that relates thereto, and another for
all creatures and things outside. Thus.
tame cattle are distinguished from
wild, and tree planted with intention
from one that springs naturally. Upon
the other hand. those poor Armenians
have not even one gender to bless
themselves with.
But the Australians of the DAILY river
actually put gender into their verbs.
Humane persons would not credit such
an outrage upon lower authority than
that Of Rex. ID. McKillop, In charge of
Roman Catholic mission there. Only
to think of learning such a language
gives one a shiver. We do not hear
how many moods go to a verb, but
the lenses are vaguely and awfully
described as 'endless;" perhaps the rev.
erend gentleman had not yet succeed.

age. Is. the infection Of the adjective.
Besides singular and plural they have
as We should expect. the dual, land
they are verv strict about the use Of
It," One would say that the resources
of human speech do not allow the
plural number to be formed unless by
change in the first or last syllable Of
the noun or in the interpositiOn of one
midway, as in the Turkish. But Anti
podean ingenuity is equal to the task.
These black fellows express the plural
by a change. not in the noun, but in
the verb. Upon the whole. there Is no
such lively example of the perpleXing
rule that language Is more complicated.
and more scrupulous to interpret the
speakers meaning. in proportion to the
barbarism of those who use It, There
are exceptions enough, of course.
