THAT CHAPTER.

A Chapter on SCOTS Emul-
sion often holds a prominent
position in the histories of

The gist of that chapter
usually reads like this:
Child weak and thin

day-after a week appetite inn
proved-soon a little stronger
child more lively-weighs
more.
And so it goes till the child
is reported we'll and strong.

ONE OF EDUcATIoN's FREAKS.
Dull Pupils Generally Win Success
in Life While Smart Ones More
often Fail.

81 am almost discouraged by the
results of popular education" said an
old teacher For forty years I have
been teaching in the public schools of
the city in which live, and many of
my earliest pupils are now men of
middle age. What discourages me is
that so many of my brightest schol-
ars have proved failures in the pro-
fessions, in business, and in public
life, while the most successful of our
citizens were, as a rule, classed
among the dull pupils.
Five of the leading lawyers in this
city were my pupils, and they were
all below the average in scholarship,
department and punctuality. Several
of our most prominent business men
belong to the same group, while
among physicians, engineers and min
listers 1 find that some of my dul1est
pupils are in the front rank.
lon the other hand, some OF my
brightest and most promising schol-
ars are little better than tramps,
and most of them are below the av-
erage in the avocations they have
chosen"

PREFER DEATH TO BLINDNESS
Two Startling Instances of the Kind
Recently Reported from
Vienna, Austria.

a Hungarian woman and an Aus
trian judge committed suicide because
they were appalled, by fear Of total
blindness. Miss Michael Yung, who
lived alone, but in comfort, in Gross
warden, had been told by the doctors
that blindness was her unavoidable
fate, says late account from Vienna
She straightway had large carving
knife sharpened, lay down on her bed
and cut her throat so savageIy that
her head was detached from the body,
rolled off the bed and was found on
the floor by those Who entered the
room in the morning.

most learned, most feared, vet up
right judge of the high court of vi

life, visited all his favorite spots.

passed his very last day precisely as
usual, and at 1890 that night went
TO his Office in the courts, locked him
self in, wrote a few lines to say that
fear of blindness made him wish to
end his life, and he hoped shat his
friends would forgive him the bru-
tally of his exit from life, then shot
himself.

HUNTS WITH TRAINED WOLVES
Success in Capturing
Rabbits.

Bert Decker, young sportsman
of Tuscola, ILL.,, has succeeded in tam
ing two wolves, and they are very
valua bic as hunters, says Charleston
Qu.) correspondent of the Cincin-
natl Enquirer. He captured them
when young, raised them as kittens"
and now, though they are as large
as shepherd dogs, they are quite tame
and playful. Decker says the wolves
can outruns dogs on the hunt, and are
very long-winded. Their favorite
way of catching rabbit is to run
alondside of him, put their nose IN
derneath Mr.. CottOntail, and throw
him ten or twelve feet in the air,
catching him in their mouths as he
falls. The wolves always return to
their master when called.
Decker's success has caused other
sportsmen to undertake the training
of wolves to supplant dogs in hunt.

ADpefizIng DIspIay Of Good Things
TO Eat in the window of
RestauraRt.

Likely to catch the eye Of the Passer-
by is the restaurant window display
consisting of a big block of artificial
ice with an assortment Of, good things
to eat frozen within it. Sometimes
fruits are thus displayed, and some
times vegetables; or fish, or game, or
crustacea, states the New York Sun.
Sometimes the display is composite;
and reveals some pattern or design.
Thus appearing in the crystal depths
of an ice block lately seen were two
fine shad, heads downward and meet
ing at the bottom of the cake, and each
fish holding in its mouth a lemon.
Head downward thus, the forms of
these fishes, unlocked and so of course
of their natural color, rose in the ice
block like the arms of a tall, but not
very widely opened letter V; and be-
tween the forms of the two fishes wa s
placed lobster, cooked and so. of
course, red in co.or, making a striking
contrast to the green gray OF the Two
shad. In freezing in~fruits and yeget-
abies and so on they use celery and
other things that permit of effective
arrangement; and so this window dis
play consisting of a block of ice with
things frozen in it may be easily made
one to attract attention.

A great deal of time is just now be-
Ing spent in the study of royal ways
in order that Prince Henry may be
made to feel at home in America.
Why all this worry? He comes to
the United States of his own accord,
and it would seem more in keeping
with the proprieties of the occasion if
he would spend some time in the
study OF American ways in order that
he might act as he should act in a re-
public and among people who believe
in republic. Why not assume that
in spite of his royal birth, he is a good,
ordinary man, and treat him as we
would an ordinary person? We are
under no obligation to treat royalty
as royalty is treated at home. 1t
seems little strange that we should
make such violent effort to ape Europ-
can ways when foreigner comes here
although there is nc aping Of Amerf-
can ways when one of our representa-
tiyes gees sbroad.

Kansas Republicans are just as con-
tident of electing their Governor this
year as they were in the years when
the opposition elected Click, Level
ling and Leedy, Notwithstanding there
are just as many and portentious signs
OF discord now as there were in those
off years Too much confidence has
begotten a wild scramble for Office
that may end in a rout at the polls.
History teaches that the opposition in
Kansas can get together mighty fast.
and that it is stronger when in pursuit
of place and power than when in pos
session. It is not impossible by any
means that there cannot be another
political upheaval in November.-St
