The total shipments for the season
amounted to little less than 1900, 900
pounds, which is about $4,000 pounds
greater than last year.
The average price paid this year has
been 11a cents. With but two exceptions
all of the wool purchased on this market
was bought by j. E. Hemple for Jere-
miah Williams, and it is safe to say that
this house handled three quarters of the
entire clip of Beaverhead county in 1901.
In all probability cooperative wool
warehouse will be erected before another
season by the Southern Montana Wool
growers association.
1t will be large enough to hold every
clip in this county and it is the intention
to have all the wool on hand and then
advertise regular sale day, as is done
in the larger wool centers in the state.
In this manner it is hoped to bring a
number of buyers here to compete for
the clips and secure a better price.
The majority of the flock masters are
satisfied with the prices received this
year but think they might have been bet
ter had there been more competition.

japanese Schoolboys,

The American schoolboy, pursuing
his studies in well-built, well-ventilat-
ed and well-warmed schoolhouses, may
congratulate himself on his freedom
from the disadvantages and perplex-
tiles attending schoolboy life in ia
pan. Japanese schoolhouses Of the
elementary and intermediate grades
are flimsy structures, provided with
windows in which paper takes the
place Of glass. They are usually two
stories high. The upper story is
reached by a steep flight of stairs,
which, by the removal of wooden pan
els, is open to the air on one side
during school time On shelves in the
lover hall the pupils deposit their
wooden clogs or geta-the Japanese
street shoes. In his home, like his
elders, as in school, like his fellows,
the Japanese schoolboy wears his
tabi-double-soled stockings which
have a separate place for the great toe.
Some of the boys, however, go about
bare-footed, although the temperature
Of a Japanese schoolroom in cold
weather would cause decided -discom-
fort to an American schoolboy. The
classics, as we understand the term,
are not studied. The ancient literary
works Of China take their place, and
occupy the same prominence in the
Japanese curriculum that Homer and
Virgil occupy in ours.
The American schoolboy who finds
it hard to conquer Greek and Latin
still has less cause for lamentation
than his Japanese brother. In the
study of the Chinese classics, the jap
anese boy has to memorize several
thousand Chinese "ideographs'' or
word-characters, since they are con-
stantly in use in Japanese literature
and in the daily newspapers. After
having mastered their significance, he
must learn their correct Chinese pro-
nunciation, for which separate study
Is required. To make matters worse,
these tdeographs, when printed, differ
from those of the same Significance
when in script, and to learn to write
them properly is deemed essential for
every well-educated Japanese. The
life Of the Japanese schoolboy has it's
compensations, however. At certain

and teachers, and it is no unusual
thing to see school returning in pic

dust, trudging sturdily along with

Curvature OF the Spine, Hts Causes nnd
symprons - An InstRunasnt Which
simplifies instruction In Telography
Photographing y Dragon-Ely.
CURVATURE OF THE SPINE.

In infancy and childhood lateral
curvature Of the spine develops very
readily. In some cases, as will be
presently shown, the causes are very
slight; SO that, to use the words OF
one Of our most eminent medical au-
thors, cit is really wonderful that
most Of us are tolerably straight"
A slight asymmetry Of one of the
vertebrae of which the backbone is
or lack of development, Of one Of the
muscles which hold it upright, is suffi-
cient to produce a deviation from its
proper position. .-s .s.z.s
This of itself would be Of compar-
atively small moment if the organs
contained within the trunk were not
affected by any considerable change
from it's proper upright position. A
lateral curvature cannot exist without
shortening of the trunk, just as
bow when bent measures less from
tip to tip than when it is unstrung.
This shortening in turn necessarily
implies crowding together of the or
gans contained within the trunk.
Constitutional weakness naturally
tends to make lateral curvature OF the
spine more readily acquired. OF spe-
cif1c disorders which produce the same
effect, ricketts, is perhaps the chief.
With the knowledge that lateral de-
Walton is thus easily caused, it is not
to be wondered at that causes appar-
emily very slight are frequently the
only ones discoverable to account for
certain of the many cases coming un-
der the physicians notice. A baby
can scarcely support it's back before
it is three or four months old. Yet
the proud nurse Or mother not infre-
quently sets it erect, or carries it On
her arm without a proper support, at
a much earlier age.
Children who go to scnool at six or
seven years Of age are often compelled
to sit on a badly shaped bench, some
times with no support for the back,
during school hours. The muscles be-
come tired, and the child leans to one
side, usually to the right.
A narrow space between the seat
and the desk obliges the child to push
between them, so that, in girls partic-
ularly, a drag is exerted on one shoul-
der; or the skirts form an uneven
cushion, fitting the spinal column out
of the perpendicular. Even in grown
men and women occupations requiring
a one-sided muscular action affect the
vertebrae, and therefore the shape of
the spine. In children the much softer
bones are still more readily affected.
Parents may therefore be pardoned
IL they insist on abundance of room
and considerable lack of restraint for
young children in the schoolroom.
Teachers have frequently to take the
initiative in matters of school hygiene,
especially when their pupils are from
homes in crowded, unsanitary city
tenements
Lateral curvature is rarely congeeni-
tal 1t is in most. cae~~~ feVehtaole'

ally checked by strict observance of
hygienic measures.
