ed during chnunoou anu youth. After
the completion Of the twentieth year
very little progress can be made. A
grown man is unable to develop his
powers of observation to any satisfac-
tory degree. Youth Is full of energy,
and that is the time to rinculcate the
lesson that we should see all that our
eyes rest upon.
1t should be the object Of every par.
ent to teach his child to note every OBJ
ject that comes in his way. When out
for walk in park, the child should
be told to observe the shapes of the
leaves on the different trees, the paling
of the color of animals toward the un.
der part of the body and so on and
should be told that when asked ques-
ton on the subject he must be prepar-
ed to say that it is so. not that he
thinks it Is.
All children have inquiring minds
aud after a walk or two. coupled with
such instruction as we have mention
ed, you will find the child making great
progress and acquiring quality that
will be Invaluable to him in after life.
One Of the methods adopted by Hou
din. the conjurer. for quickening the
perception of his son was to make him
walk rapidly past a shop window or a
stall on which number Of articles
We're displayed and then write down
list of the objects noticed AT first only
half dozen articles We're perceived
during the moment occupied in passing
the store or window. but after having
done it once day for month the boy

MOUNTAIN AIR.
Why 1t Is More Healthful Than That
of Lower Attitudes.

of Lower Attitudes.
The only reason why mountain air
is healthier than low air is that noun
tain air is cleaner than low air. The
chemical composition Of the atmos-
phere differs but little, if at all, wher-
ever the sample be taken. On Pixies
peak the relation of oxygen to nitro
gen and other constituents Of the at
mosphere Is the same as at the level
Of the ocean. The favorable effects
therefore Of change Of air are not to
be explained by any difference in the
proportion of its, gaseous constituents.
One important difference, however. is
the meteorological one. The air of
high attitudes contains no microbes
and is. in fact. sterile, while near the
ground and some 100 feet above it
microbes are abundant.
In the ali of Chicago and other
crowded places not only does the mi
crobe impurity increase. but other i'm
purities. such as the products Of COM
bustion Of coal, accrue also. Several
investigators have found traces Of n.y.
drogen and certain hydrocarbons in
the air, and especially in the air of pine.
oak and birch forests 1t is to those
bodies. doubtless consisting of traces
Of essential oils. to which the curative
effects Of certain health resorts are
| ascribed. Thus the locality of a fir
forest is said to give relief in diseases
of the respiratory tract. But all the
same. these traces of essential oils and
aromatic products must be counted.
strictly speaking. as impurities. since
they are not apparently necessary con-
stituents of the air. AS recent analy-
ses have shown. these bodies tend to

Word came by telegram last week
to the children of Jens Johnsen, of
near Elkhorn, that they, the parents,
who have been visiting for time in
Minnesota, had started home but on
account of wreck had been. delayed
at Pipestone. A letter coming later
said that the mothers head was con-
siderably cut and it would be some
time ere it would heal. Two of the
boys have gone up to help them to
get home.
1t is something to attain the ripe
age of seventy years and yet be strong
and active. But such man is Chris
Madsen, father of the merchant, Hans
Madsen, of Kimballton. Sunday was
the old gentleman's birthday and
number of relatives and friends
gathered at his pleasant home to do
him honor as he has done so many of
them. To live that long, honestly
and upright as he has, is a thing to
be proud ofand fitting time to re-
joice and make merry.
Sunday crowd Of young people
might have been seen vending their
way to the home of Chris Iverson's,
little north of Elkhorn. The twinkle
in their eye and the bright smile on
their faces told that they We're on
pleasure bent. Chris and his wife
both have the reputation OF being
among the best people in the country
to entertain and to make those who
visit them happy, and when the
guests arrived they found everything
in readiness for good time and turn
ling themselves loose they proceeded
to have it..
Saturday night as the shades Of
evening were gathering over the lit
tie town of Poplar, if one had been
near they might have witnessed
scenes of activity that woIid have
lead them to suspect that something
was going to happen. Eater, when
buggies began to arrive, the suspi-
cions would have beSn verified and a
dance would have sJbn been witnessed.
1t was ct Jasper Jensen's home and
any one wnc-, flows Jasper, know
that he never does things by halves,
so that fun, jollity and good time
were had by all. Almost had the
streaks Of morning light begun to
show in the east ere the merry rev.
ellers noted the time and then they
reluctantly went home voting Jasper
and his wife among the best enter

THE SCHEME WORKED.
A Scheme by Which Brown Qufeted
His Wife's Suspicion.

A Scheme by Which Brown Qufeted
His Wife's Suspicion.
To be perfectly honest. Brown does
not go to his Griswold street Office
every night that he tells his wife he
lis going there The business which he
says is pressing is frequently imagi-
nary and the man whom he is going
to meet does not exist. He belongs
to club, and clubs have their attrac-
tions. He thought that his wife was
growing suspicious. and Brown is re-
sourceful.
On the evening in question, as the
lawyers would say. he told her that
there was a matter Of business that
could not possibly be deferred until the
next day. About 9 o'clock she answer
ed the phone and was asked If Brown
was at home and she replied that he
was at his office

the driver to go as fast as the ordi-
nance allows, kept taking on temper as
she went aud flew up stairs to the
office as though mouse were in hot
pursuit. Her husband met her smil-
ingly, insisted that she had given him
a delightful surprise, put his easiest
chair near the light, handed her a pa
per and apologized for having to re-
sumo work that would possibly keep
him till 3. She could not explain. she
could not keep awake. she was asham-
ed of herself. and after lamely telling
him that she had dreamed that he was
ill she left.
In ten minutes he was at the club
and shook hands with man who smil-
ingly asked If the scheme worked.
He replied that it was as good as ready
money for at least 60 days. and then
