HAVE A rELEPHONE.

We would like to once again refer to
the value Of a telephone for the farm
home. The phone is one Of those
things which a person does not appre-
ciate until he has once enjoyed them.
Independent Of its value from COM
merciaI and business standpoint, which
Is not an insignificant thing by any
means, 1t forms a social link which is
almost Invaluable to every resident of
the farm home. Wherever there are a
town and a local exchange within ten
miles and dozen farmers scattered
along the ten miles willing to work to-
gether to have the telephone service
there can such service be easily and
cheaply procured. The money value of
the phone is we'll illustrated by the
case Of a friend of the writer who had
telephone connection with four market
towns distant from seven to ten miles
from his place. He had 90 fat hogs to
sell. By getting quotations on the
morning Of the day he wished to dis
pose of his hogs. he made an even $50.
selling not at his usual trading point,
but at another town where he seldom
went. The profit on this one business
transaction almost covered the entire
cost to him of installing the telephone

All over the country is the most
abundant evidence that the lakes. riv-
ers and streams of all kinds are grad
ually and surely carrying less and less
water. Hundreds Of what were in an
early day valuable water powers are
today marked by tumble down old
mill and wreck of a dam. Fine fields
of grass and grain are today growing
where 40 years ago one could go in
swimming and catch ten pound pick
erel, and this in sections Of the country
where there is very much more timber
now growing than when the country
was first settled. The weather man
tells us that there has been no diminu-
ton Of the average amount Of rainfall
"a statement which we very much
doubt, and so we ask what has be-
come of the water? We do not note
any greater flood conditions than were
common 40 years ago. Perhaps the
following will partly explain the mat
ter: The earth when in n cultivated
/ state absorbs a much greater per cent
of the years rainfall than it did in its
wild and uncultivated state. and so less
water finds its way into the lakes and
water courses. Then, all our growing
crops take up from the soil and evap
crate a much greater amount Of mois
ture than did the native grasses ant
heritage, and so we say that we thinl
the reason Of the constantly failing
water supply of lakes and rivers il
that the earth takes in the lost waite
and the growing crops pump it out, tn
moisture so released not being returne'
to us in the shape Of an additional rain
fall. If there is more logical explana
ton Of this matter than that given, w
would be glad to know it.

The recrudescence Of plague every
where is an alarming fact. China, Cape
Colony, Mauritius, Russia, and especially
in India, the reports are all the same. In
Picking 10000 deaths are reported in six
weeks, and in Bombay LILO cases, with
1928 deaths, in one week. Fully 1000
people are dying of plague every day in
India.
In San Francisco there can be no longer
any doubt that bubOnic plague has ex-
listed for several years. The number of re-
ported cases is about 80 for the last year,
with perhaps three or four times as
many unreIOrted. According to the
Journal of the American Medical Asso-
citation, during the 13 days in which the
federal investigation commission (Drs
Flexner, Novy, Barker) inspected tine
Chinese quarters 10 deaths occurred, OF
which six were proved due to the bacillus
OF bubOnie plague. The fact that the dis
ease has not spread argues no security
Tor the future, because in Calcutta fol
two years there was a similar mild form
Of the disease prevalent prior to the gen
eral outbreak.
While this is going on we should note
that almost all governments, civilized ant
uncivilized, are devoting almost all theil
energies to LIBERALIZATION. War and am
bition and national hatreds are wildly a
work to produce ruin and disease. III,

Just lots of good women make the
mistake Of their lives by not training
their girls when young to do house
work In a businesslike manner, giving
as a reason that it is more trouble to
teach a child to work than it is to do
the work themselves. Then some
mothers are afraid they will overwork
the girls, when wOrk-just common
everyday works. the very best Of all
agencies by which to develop the
physical and moral nature of the boys
and girls. We are more and more i'm
pressed all the time with what we
term the general incompetence Of COM
mon people in the doing of the COM
mon work of life, and most Of this
trouble is directly traceable to a lack
Of practical training of children by
their parents In the home. Too many
mothers think that If they feed and
clothe their girls, send them to Sunday
school and give them lessons on tho
organ they have turned out prize for
some young man to install as a home
maker. 1t will ever be, so long as the
old world lasts, that the chief business
! Of living for the masses will be doing
Of the common everyday necessary
and practical things of life incident to
the getting of food to eat and raiment
to wear, and thus 1t comes that that
young person is best. fitted to enjoy life
who can do this sort Of work cheer

this day and age of the world Il don't

for any young man or woman to make
as touching the doing of the class Of
work referred to. We came across a
12-year-old girl not long since-just a
common country bred girl-whO had
been well trained by a careful and
sensible mother who could easily dis
lance scores of old married women in
the science Of housekeeping up to the
limits Of her physical strength. We

Westminster abbey is to be entirely
closed to the public for about four months
next year, and all the services will Of
course be suspended during that time.
Three months will be required to prepare
the interior Of the abbey for the corona
ton ceremony, and after it has taken
place three or four weeks will be occupied
In removing all the temporary structures
and other paraphernalia. The whole Of
the stone pillars and many OF the monu-
ments will be entirely incased with wood,
which is to be all covered with scarlet
cloth. A preliminary draft Of the ar
engagements at the abbey for the corona
ton has already been sketched out, but
the details Of the ceremonial and the Or
der Of the service will be settled next
week by a committee Of the privy council.
The coronation is to take place toward
the end Of June. The dean and chapter
Of Westminster are entitled to claim as

REPA1R1NG DAMAGES.

A high wind last spring broke down
the central or leader branch Of an elm
tree for us, badly defOrmlng the tree.
The limb broken off was three inches
through at the break and ten feet long.
The usual method nature would have
taken to repair this damage would
have been to throw out new shoot to
take the place of the one destroyed, but
instead Of doing this, one of the large
side limbs, the tip Of which almost
touched the ground, commenced to
straighten up. Up it went. little by
little. day by day. until on the 10Th OF
August it had lifted itself up to an up
right position and become the central
branch or future trunk of the tree. II
was an interesting illustration Of how
ingeniously nature will repair the dam
age which she has wrought.

TOUR TO PACIFIC COAST.

In view of the great popularity
of transcontinental travel under
the Personally Conducted System.
as evinced in the recent Pemnsyl-
vania Railroad Tour to the Pacific
Coast and Canadian Northwest,
that company has decided to run
another tour to the Pacific Coast,
including in the itinerary a visit
to the world famous Grand Canon
of Arizona in the early fall. The
tour will leave New York, Phila-
delphia, Baltimore, Washington,
and other stations on the Peunsyl-
vania Railroad east of Pittsburg,
on Monday, September %, and
reach New York on the homeward
trip Tuesday, October 22.
AS in former tours to California
under the auspices of the Pennsyl-
vania Railroad, a special train
composed of the highest class of
Pullman equipment, will be ulti-
lized during the entire trip. Ex-
cellent meals will be served in the
dining cars attached to the train
during the entire journey, except
during the stops at San Francisco
and in Chicago. An observation
car will appeal to all who delight
in scenery. Few trips afford so
great diversity in Natures beau
ties as the one outlined below.
Westward bound, the tourists will
pass through the wild slopes of
the Colorado Rockies, around the
Great Salt Lake, and over the fast
nesses of the Sierra Nevada. After
visiting all the beautiful resorts on
the sunny California slopes, the
eastward journey will be through
the Arizona desert to the Grand
Canon of Arizona. It's beauties

Wonndn Thnt Should Hnre I1IIIed.

There have been some very curious
wounds inflicted in the South African
war. One of the most curious that has
come to our notice is that of young man
who received a Martini bullet right
through his head, coming in at one tenn
pie and going out at the other. That
young TSan was dead by all the ordinary
rules Of the game. but he is at present,
as a matter of fact, alive in England.
An officer at SpiOn kOp was holding a
rife, which was struck by fragment Of
shell, doubled up and dashed in his face.
The back sight lacerated his cheek, the
fore sight wounded him behind the ear,
and he was knocked insensible. He is all
right now.
Another case that has come to our
knowledge is that of a soldier who came
running back from the firing line in one
Of the fights before Kimberley with a
wound in his head. Just a scratch" he
said, but as matter of fact his skull was
fractured and the bone driven inward
He was very i'll, but is still alive. Aftel
hearing Of these cases we wonder If there
is any one thing that will actually anC
certainly kill a man. Perhaps a doctor
could tell us.-LOndon News.
