Begin young by giving him whatever
he cries for. Talk freely before the child
about his cleverness as Incompatible.
Tell him he is too much for you, that you
can do nothing with him. Have divided
counsels as between father and mother.
Let him learn to regard his father as
possessing unlimited power, capricious
and tyrannical, or as mere whipping
machine. Let him learn from his ia
theirs example to despise his mother.
Do not know or care who his companions
may be- Let him read whatever he likes,
says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Let
the child, whether boy or girl, rove the
streets in the evening and let him have
plenty of money to spend. Chastise Sc
yerely for a foible and laugh at vice.
These rules are not untried. Many per-
sons have proved them, with a substan-
tial uniformity Of results. If a faithful
observance of them does not spoil your
child, ypn will at least have the COM
Portable reflection that you have done
what you could.

One word we must say Of Eos, the de-

Albert. She belonged to the prince long
before his marriage and then lived with
the queen and prince. The dog, with her
two puppies, was painted by the great
Landseer and by another fine artist.

Weman,s Retort.

Lawyers not infrequently receive the
most provoking retorts from women
whom they are trying to confound. A
counsel defending prisoner on trial be-
fore an English court for stealing money
began his cross examination of the prin-
cipal witness, woman, by saying:
ATell me, my good woman, what sort
of money had you?"
II had shillings in silver and a SOW
ereign in gold"
TEL me, my good woman" continued
the lawyer, with sneer, intended to con-
fuse the witness, Ibid you, ever see a
sovereign in anything else than gold?'

Training Japanese singing Girls.


Children who are destined to musical
career commence at an early age, and
their experience is painful. They are re-
quired to sing, or. rather, screech, at the
top of their voices for hours at stretch,
their musical gymnastics usually taking
place on the roof of the teahouse to which
they have been apprenticed. There they
are to be found every day, summer and
winter, squalling in unison, a dozen or
more in company, until exhausted. Win
ter is considered the best season of all for
the development of the voice, and the
colder the weather the better since ex-
IRENE cold is held not only to strengthen
the voice, but to augment the register.
After years of this laboripus and torture
exercising of the voice under the tuition
of women professors, themselves once IA
nous singers, the young girl enters the
ranks of the professional geisha and
awaits calls to assist in conjunction with
perhaps a dozen others of her craft at
entertainments given by wealthy mer-
chants or others. at famous teahouses or,
less frequently. at private houses. These
women do not perform in theaters or pub
lie places of that kind. Theaters are
numerous enough in Japan, but they are
never used for musical entertainments.
Even in the production of plays no wom-
en- are employed, female parts being sus-
tanned by boys or men. In the time Of
Shakespeare in England all female char
acters were played by boys and young
men. and the. fact that the same condi-
tion exists in Japan shows the desire Of
primitive people to shield their w0rnen
from the publicity Of the stage.--Ledger

WASHINGTON, March 16.-It can be
stated upon authority that up to the
present DO complaint has been lodged
against Mr.. Loomis. Minister to Vene-
zuela, by the Venezuelan Government
nor has there ben any suggestion from
that source that. his withdrawal would
be acceptable. The officials again declare
that Mr.. LOOMS has been doing his duty
and no more than his duty, and as he
has acted under instructions from his
own Government there. Is not the least
apprehension that any attempt will be
made to hold him personally responsible
for the friction that has followed the at

| This belief on the part of the officials
is confirmed by Senior Pulido. the Vene-

WASHINGTON, March 7.-Jared
Smith who has been in charge of the
offices Of seed and plant introduction
in the Department of Agriculture, has
been directed to start In ii Few days
for Honolulu to start all agricultural
experiment station there. AS director
his first work will be to teach the Ha-
waiian people how to grow garden
truck. Most of the vegetables now
consumed in the Islands are imported
from San Francisco. They will be
taught also the value of dairy cows
among poor families, butter and cheese
making; the forage plants most eco
nomically produced for Hawaiian con-
sumption. and the value OF poor fami-
lies raising chickens and pigs.
This agricultural missionary work in
the interest of the common people OF
the Islands will be essayed before 9TH
er agricultural problems will be con-
sidered. There are 200 acres, running
from the coast to the top Of a noun
tain, set apart by the Hawaiian Leg
islature for this purpose. These mat
tiers will be given attention near the
coast; coffee raising will be studied on
the higher elevations, and forestry
work will be done on the mountain

RAID OF BURGLaRS.
They Imprison Clerk and Loot the
Safe.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, March 10
Burglars entered the Metropolitan car
barn at Elmwood and st. John ave-
nues in this city early this morning,
overpowered Erwin Lockwood, the
night clerk, and locked him in the
cloakroom. The safe was blown open
with dynamite and S131 taken.
Lockwood was alone in the office
when he heard a knock at the front
door. When he asked what was want
ed one of the men covered him with Il
revolver and commanded him to throw
up his hands and keep still. The In
truders forced Lockwood TO go through
the conductors room into a small
cloakroom. They locked the door and
one of the men stood guard for a time.
The blowing up of the safe caused a
terrific explosion, and scattered the
money and other cortents of the safe
all over the floor.
The robbers hastily gathered up all
the money they could, but in their
haste they left 800 on the floor. AS a
result of the explosion mucn OF the
interior of the office was wrecked, and
some combustible material took fire.

bask is that are supported by wire
rods about two feet from the ground.
These are distributed throughout the
orchard. Each fire basket is surround
ed by pan, containing water, which
will generate steam. Coal is the fuel
used. This is ignited by means Of pine
sticks soaked in resin.
The pans serve the double purpose
of creating steam and causing the heat
from the fire to spread out instead of
going directly skyward. A thermom-
eter with an electric attachment will

sinks below 81 degrees. The alarm bell

Cubans Enrased About the Plat
Amendment TO Their
Bill.

| JACKSONVILLE, Fla, March IL
News reaches here from good authority
that a rebellion against the United
States is being planned in Cuba. This
information comes from member of
Mayor Bowden's family, who is a resi-
tdent of Cuba, and he asserts of his own
knowledge that the extreme element is
greatly in the majority and they are
to-day secretly preparing for war and
lare making heavy purchases Of arms
land ammunition.
i The statement creates considerable
excitement among the large Cuba col
Eony here.
I HAVANA, March 1.-THE week opens
with strong disposition on the part Of
a large majority of the members of the
Unconstitutional convention Immediately
Ito vote for the rejection Of the Plat
amendment. A question has arisen,
however, with regard to the terms of
the amendment. The delegates are not
certain whether it is final and in the
nature of an ultimatum or is open to
modification by the President. Con-
lflicting statements have been made by
the Military Governor regarding Its
finality. Some members of the conven-
ton are disposed to submit proposals
substantially modifying the terms OF
the amendment if it Is not absolute and
final
The general sentiment of the com.
mittee on relations is that the conven-
ton should proceed with calm deliber-
alton respecting the rights and inter
ests of the United States while preserv'
ing both the form and the substance
of Cuban independence.
The idea is growing that the amend
/ ment is violation of the joint resolu
ton of Congress declaring for Cubar
independence, as an unwarranted die
tation of conditions to a free and In
dependent people and an exercise o
sovereignty, control and jurisdiction

this question be submitted to the Unit

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

BY local applications as they cannot

There Is only one way to cure deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
lnfiamed condition of the mucous lin

this tube is inflamed you have a rumb-
ling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unles the Inflammation

to ito ~r-s.ai condition, hearing will
be destroyed forever; nine cases out of
ten are caused by Catarrh, which is
