HER FIRST ENGLISH WORD.
Education In This German
Family.

There is a very nice little German
American girl in town who spoke her
first English word the other day,
says the Chicago Chronicle. Accord
ing to family arrangements, the chill
dren of the household are to hear as
far as possible only German in the
house, that they may know it thor
oughly; then, as the mother re-
marked:
"They can pick up their English
easily in the street"
She did not mean this exactly. It
was a general term, intending to con-
vey the idea that the children would
learn English when they entered
school and from their playmates.
But when the other day the little girl
said her first English word she found
that her casual remark had evidently
been followed with great literalness.
She was sewing on the machine and
for some reason it refused to work.
1t stopped suddenly at an important
stage of the work and it was certain
ly most annoying. What should she
do? She tried to find the trouble
and the little girl endeavored to as
sist. Poor mamma was most unhap'
py she could plainly see. The horrid
old machine, to make her mamma SO
much trouble! SO she doubled uI
her little fist at it and opened heI
mouth and-well, mamma certainly
forgot the machine for time, foI
the word which came from those rosy
lips was not only English. but such q
naughty, naughty word that nice
little girl could have heard it only
on the street

chnnce-I,s Narrow LImi,..

If, in speaking of chance, we mean
simply something whose cause we do
not know, it may be allowable to use
the word, but if we mean by it any
thing which happens without a Gauss ,
it is an injurious fallacy, which
should be banished from every mind
and every lip. five remember that
every chance is only an illustration
of our own ignorance, we shall be
less likely to use the word inadvised-
ly, and if we habitdally search for
the causes of things and turn our
ignorance into knowledge, we shall
gradually curtail the idea of it with
in narrower and truer limits.-PhiI-

Farming and the Telegraph in Egypt

Farming is carried on in Egypt al
most altogether with the help of ir-
rigation. BY the middle of summer,
if the flooding of the Nile fails, the
stored water in the reservoirs gives
out. Egypt has now no means of
knowing, more than a few weeks in
advance, whether the food will come
in June or not. With the compile
tion of the telegraph to Victoria
Nyanza the amount of rainfall at the
head waters of the Nile can be known
months in advance. If the precipita-
tion has been small, the water in the
reservoirs can be used sparingly and
thus made to last over the season so
that at least a partial crop can 5e

Why Mrs. Nation, the Saloon
Smsshsr, Stays Out of Jail.

Since Mrs. Nation, the knight
of tho hatchet, has undertaken to
smash up all the saloons of Kansas
and has played such wild havoc

or upon the low lands, she sweeps
down upon them and smash~s
glass and bottles and kegs, many
people have asked why it is she

tion Of property. The answer is
given by an exchange a. follows ::
Eighteen years ago the people OF
Kansas voted almost unanlnously
to adopt prohibition laws in that
State, and the Legislature accord
ingly passed laws to prohibit the
sale Of Intoxicating liquors ia any
form, unless for medicinal purpo-
sss. The law also provided that
it was N misdemsanor TO rent
buildings to saloon keepers
The first trespa.sing began
when drug stores began to retail
whisksy by having the purchaser
sign medical certificate. This
made it easy, and tho druggists
were voted permits to handle
uhisksy by the townspsopIs. As
tho number Of drug stores incrsas-
cd the municipal authorities dscld-
cd that they should psy fines, and
then the "joints' sprung into s1-
istsnce. These bad place. were
allowed to run by The pay msnt Of
large fines. The ''jolnts' were
conducted behind locked doors and
