M0RE OF IF.

The third term talk grows interest
 that it doesn't excite any alarm, or, in- deed, make much stir of any kind. Per haps the people are so decided against a third term that they don't care to
 talk about 1t any more than they did
 about Bryan and Bryanism. And per
 haps they don't care very much wheth- CT there is a third term or not Time will tell It is evident that there is method in the ''feelers" that are being put forth. Congressman Grosvenor has made few remarks, MT Grosver- nor has been conspicuous in working and prophesying for President McKin
 ley. He now thinks there has been no time in our history when conditions would so justify the election of presi- dent to third term as in the case of Mckinley. He feels it rather necessa- ry. as some others who have talked third-term have felt it, to dispose of "the Washington myth" So he says: 'The facts are, as any student of the times may discover, that it. was fear of defeat which impelled Washington to decline a third nomination. Being a Federalist he was the object of very violent attacks on the part of the Dem ocrats of his day, and recognizing the growing strength of his opponents he doubted, as I believe, his ability to se- cure an election if he should run
 It will doubtless soon be conclusive ly shown that if Washington had real ly loved the country of which he has long been believed to be the fa- ther he would have run for third term, and that if he had we might have had much less trouble in this country than we have had Fortunately it is not too late to mend.

 By the time the oxen had been driven
 as far as Laramie they would be so
 travel worn they could go no farther The men who had started for the gold fields could not wait. They would sell their oxen for song and buy those which were ready for travel. In few weeks the travel-worn oxen would be rested and their feet cured. Then you could sell them at almost whatever price you put on them to the next gold hunter who came along"

 and MT. Goodson left for New Zealand promising some day to pay the rest of his indebtedness. In New Zealand he
 was prosperous for time, but during a wave of colonial depression was obliged to again assign. Many men would have been discouraged after two failures, and the Norwich creditors, on hearing of the second financial trouble, gave up all hope of ever receiving the balance due on their bills. But Good son was not to be beaten, and the third time he succeeded. His business pros- pered, and by three instalments he paid his colonial creditors in full. Having accomplished that, he wrote to Nor wich for a list of his home creditors, and few weeks later forwarded draft in part payment of his debt of more than twenty years ago. His in- structions were that all creditors to whom he owed less than e10 should be paid in full, the remainder of his draft to be used in paying the others as far as it would go. The larger creditors received six shillings in a pound, leav- ing 5s. I'd. as the amount owing to them. This Goodson promised to make up within the next twelve months.

In the Revue Scientifique M H. Coupin cites certain remarkable in- stances of initiation on the part of birds. One case is that of spar row which initiated the stridulation of a grasshopper One spring, a cage containing sparrow was hung side by side with another which contained grasshoppers. During that year no mo- tce was taken by the sparrow of his neighbors. but next year, when in the same society, he initiated the grass hoppers song, and for the rest of his life, long after the grasshoppers were dead and gone, he mingled it with his own. The case of young linnets learn ing the song of the nightingale instead of their own is also mentioned, to- gether with the fact that several kinds of birds in Thuringia sing much better than the members of their own species dwelling in the Hartz mountains.

The American Cutivator says that the original greening apple tree is still standing on the farm of Solomon Drowne, at Mount Hygeia, in North Foster, Rhode Island The tree was very old one when the farm was sold in 1901. The seller informed the pur- chaser that it was a pity the old tree was going into decay as it produced the best fruit of any tree In the or chard. The purchaser determined to see how long he could keep it alive, and 1t still survives, after almost another century has been added to its venera- ble years. But it shows signs of final decay, and the parent of all the famous Rhode Island greenings which has set its gratis on the orchards of almost all the world, will soon be but neghbor- hood memory.

The Man Who Could Not Swim.

There lived a man upon hill, He seemeud so sad, he looked so ill, Twas this grim fact that bothered him He could not swim. Suppose he said "some sunny day l wished to sail across the bay; Oh, then the boat would sure go down, And l should drown.' He could not bear alone his life, And so, one day, brought home wife; But now q new fact saddened him.
 She could not swim. "Alas!" he cried i've both are doomed. l would to heaven we were entombed; And If we both fall in the sea,
 She can't save me-" At last the fellow had a son That pulled his hair and thought 1t fun: My son, your chance for life is slim, You cannot swim" Now comes the moral of my tale, 'Tis this, that worries don't avail. Fate slew him with the other hand. He died on land.

The Carnegie Employes Co., operative Association at Braddock, Pennsylvania, has dissolved by mutual consent after seventeen years of sue oessful operation in general merchan- disc building and loan, banking and rentals. On a capital of S20,000, only $12,000 of which was actually issued, the members have drawn 12 per cent. an- nual dividends. A part of the associa- tion has been absorbed by the Carnegie Steel Company, and the members de- cided to quit rather than pay $200 month rent or erect a building of their own. Many experiments of this char acter have been made in Pittsburg, but the Braddock concern alone survived.

 In telling the story of his early life in the west MT. Ward is as refreshingly candid as in summarizing his later day conclusions.
 'I was born in Camden county. Vir ginia," said he, March 4, 1920. When I was fourteen years of age my grand father, who didn't seem to have any great amount of confidence in my fu- ture, sent me to Indiana to live with a man named Harris I don't have very kindly remembrances of Harris and have never taken the pains tu inquire the why's and wherefores of this par ticular selection of a guardian. As I didn't like him ran away and tramped back to Virginia I remained at home just two weeks.

HINTS To CAMPERS.
How to Select n Site-A Cheap Tent.
Actual Necessities


Camping out is delightful under the
right circumstances. 1t can be done
with very little outlay, or at great ex-
pense, but it is probable that those
who go in an economical way get as
much pleasure out of their trip as
those who go to more trouble and ex-
pense. Simple living is just what is
required by the average worker A
tin plate. flannel suit and a bed of
hemlock boughs, with pure air to build
up the system, is the best change and
most perfect tonic. Take as little lug
gage as possible. Select site on ris-
ing ground, where the drainage is good
If possible near a stream of running
water. Avoid all stagnant pools.
Campers out of wide experience de-
clare against the wall" and the ga"
tents. Any closed tent is bad, because
1t retains the dampness. A tent entire
ly open on one side so that camp fires
at night and the sun by day can light
and warm every recess is the best. A
tent is now made with an awning
which can be closed if necessary. Such
tent has front curtains hung by
snaps and rings. and though not as
common as the others can be found.
Ready-made tents, however, are ex-

men can depend on their guns and fish,
ing rods, but in view of the possibility
OF failure in this 1t is well-if you are
far from a village-to have canned
goods, condensed milk, etc.
A knowledge of cooking is necessary
to<camping out. You must know how
10 make coffee and corn bread. and
how to prepare various meats. If you
are on the seashore a knowledge is
necessary of how to broil fish, bake
CLAIMS and cook chowder. If you are
inland, you must know how to broil
birds, or make bird or rabbit stew.
Several weeks camping, including the
cost of tent, can be done on about fif-
teen dollars. This of course does not
include Injuries or travelling expenses.
AS to the costume: In the first place
have your underwear wooden. bicycle
hose with linen feet. II you are a wo-
man do not wear an underskirt, but
knickerbockers. Wear a short skirt
over these and have coat of the same
material. 1t should be something that
will button up to the throat, for rain
or cool weather. A canvas cap with
double visor completes such a suit.
The canvas suit is more suitable be-
cause wool is warm and does not bear
exposure as canvas does. 1t can be
washed, winch is anotper argument IN
its favor. Such suits can be bought
ready made of dealers in camp sup
plies. Footwear should be, hunters
boots made of obtained hide, lacing
nearly to the knee. These boots may
be soaked all day in water and yet af-
ter drying by the campfire all night,
come out next morning soft and plia-
Bile, as If never wet. A pair of soft
canvas shoes may be taken to be worn
as change. If you are a woman you
will need long wristed gloves. In addi-
ton to toilet articles take some penny
royal to keep off mosquitoes, and cold
cream and vaseline for sunburn.
The blankets should be dark grey,
and If you can afford it take a rubber
blanket. 1t will cost about $1.75--6 by 4
feet.
Your pillows can be filled with pine
needles or spruce boughs, the odor Of
which is healthy and agreeable.
