SPEAK 1T OUT.

If you've anything to offer that will aid
the cause of right,
Speak it out.
If you've any truth within you that will
lend the world light,
Speak it out.
If the fire is in your spirit and the passion
to create,
You will feel it, you will know it. Then
to labor. Do not wait.
Go about it with a purpose that will con-
quer time and fate.
Speak it out.
Should your heart contain message, make
it terse and make it clear.
Speak it out.
If it's new and if it's true, the world will
listen, do not fear.

In the realms of soul, expression is the
dominating need,
Tell your thought by art or music, by
word or by deed.
If there's light, or love, or beauty in the
product, men will heed.
Speak it out.
Do you say there's nothin new? Some
thoughts bear telling Ger and DER.
Speak them out.
just be sure you say them better than
they e'er were said before.
Do you make the weakling's plea that all
the changes have been rung?
Still we are but babes in progress, for the
world as yet is young.
On the futures lips are sweeter songs than
ever have been sung.
Speak them out.
There are other means than tongue or pen
to tell the things you feel,
Speak them out.
There's the chisel: there's the brush, by
which your dreams you may reveal,
Speak them out.
Should YOU have no gift for these, yet do
not deem your quest in vain;
Be worker, for by actions men their ends
may best attain.
Let the deed be your interpreter to make
your message plain.

Do you thrill with Gods great purpose,
that impels you to aspire?

Does the hope of something better burn
within You like a fire?
Speak it out.
Never called the world for leaders, teach,

cheering word to say;
II your brain contains a thought to help
upon the upward way,

The Hearth Cricket.

Mr. James REIN, of the American
chronological Society, has made a
special study of the cricket life Of
Philadelphia. AS result of his stud
les, he writes:
"NIost Americans We're formerly ia
miliar with no other cricket than the
black field cricket, but recently light
brown species with bars of dark brown
on its head, has made its way into
our cities, and this visitor is none other
the hearth cricket, the friend Of Caleb
Plunner and John Perrybingle. 1t
cannot be denied that we have always
had, so far as we know, the little min
strel; but recent years have seen a
very great increase in their numbers
In and around Philadelphia. His chirp
is quite different from that of our
black crickets, and lie shows great
preference for the vicinity of a stove,
where he soon lets himself be heard.
1.-The hearth cricket is found over the
greater part Of Europe, inhabiting
dwellings and outbu.ldings, but the
insect particularly loves the vicinity
of fire, such situation as Dickens
graphically describes in his Christmas
Stories "-Philadelphia Record.

AMERICAN MEN AND WOMEN.
Greater Community of Interests Than
in Any Other Country.

in Any other Country.
America is the land of homes, and
taking into account tho number of in
habitants, no larger proportion OF its
inhabitants live in boarding houses
and hotels than do those OF England,
1t is also to much greater extent
than any other country of the world
the land of equality and community
Of interests between men and women.
II one takes the typical American
husband and wife one will certainly
find that their common interests are
many; that the wife is companion to
her husband, and that, knowing she is
his intellectual eqLal, the American
man discusses freely and confdentially
with his wife his professional and
business relations to a far greater ex'
tent than does the typical English
man. Club life among married men rs
not nearly SO common in America as
in England. Throughout the length
and breadth of the United States thou
sands upon thousands of husbands and
wives spend their evenings reading to-
gether the books and magazines, or the
wife doing a bit of fancy work or
mending while the husband reads aloud
from the newspapers. Many American
husbands and wives have taken up
what is known as the "Chautauqua
course; many western farmer and
his wife thus spend their winter eve
nings. Then let us take the young
unmarried men and women Of my
country. Surely they do not lead very
separate lives, and their interests in
common are many. Who takes the
American girl to the museums of art,
to the theater, to the concert? Who
sends her presents of bonbons, books,
and flowers, all for the pleasure Of her
society and companionship? 1t Is the
American young man. He can do 1t,
too, without feeling that his attentions
will be misunderstood, for America is
the land of good comradeship between
men and women. There friendship,
deep and lasting, without any thought
of love making, or marriage, may ex-
ist between the unmarried of the two
sexes, and it seems to be the only
country in the world where it can ex-
fst. Certainly such a state Of things
between the young men and the young
women of country points not to a
separation, but to a community of in
terests.-Elizabeth L. Banks in Lon
don Mail.

"In five or six years it will be hard
to get alligator skins" said William
Raquet, "for the reason that they are
all being killed off. Ten years ago it
was no uncommon thing to get skin
from ten to twelve feet long, but now
it is a rarity when we get one eight
feet long.
This comes from the use of alliga-
tor leather in the making OF valises.
Formerly about the only demand for
the skins was for shoes, but now there
are very few shoemakers who use
them. 1t was n fad, and the fad has
gone out Of date. But when valises
of the skins came in the demand in
creased by leaps and bounds. There
are hundreds of alligator hunters along
the coast and their work is showing
plainly. For u long time there were
plenty of gators along the bayous and
the marshes close to town, but now we
have to go to West Louisiana and Mis-
sissippi and elsewhere to find them"
Mr.. Raquet then spoke of the dis
covery that the back Of the alligator,
long supposed to be useless for leather
purposes, is now used in the heavier
valises. Formerly only the skin from
the under side was considered OF any
| account, but now all parts of it are
of service.-New Orleans Times-Dem.

Willing to Oblige.

An Englishman at dinner once
told a tale of tiger he had shot
which measured twenty-four feet from
snout to tail-tip. Everyone was aston
ished, but no one yentured to insinuate
doubt of the truth OF the story.
Presently q Scotchman told his tale.
lie had once caught a fish which he
said he was unable to pull in alone,
managing only TO land it at last with
the aid Of six friends. 1T was a skate
and it covered two acres"
Silence followed this recital during
which the offended Englishman left
the table. The host followed. After
returning he said to the Scorchman:
"Sir, you have insulted my friend.
You must apologize"
Il dinna insoolt him." said the Scot.
"Yes, you did, with your two.acre
Csh story. You must apologize"
WELL" said the offender, slowly,
with the air Of one making Il great
concession, tell him if he will take
ten feet off that tiger, will see what 1
san do with the fish."-Tit-B Bits.

FIGHTING WITH GIANTS,
Major Austin's Expedition Along the
Anglo-Abyssinian Frontier.

Anglo-Abyssinian Frontier.
Among the latest joys of empire
building in Africa are week long fights
with giant savages. In an extremely
interesting account Of his expedition
along the Anglo-Abyssinian frontier,
Major Austin tells, among other things,
of an encounter with the Turkhana,
tribe of giants inhabiting the shores
of Lake Rudolph. One night these
tribesmen came upon some members
of Major Austin's caravan and killed
three Soudenese soldiers.
A second attempt to rush the camp
was after some trouble beaten off, and
when the expedition moved off these
gigantic tribesmen hung on to its
skirts.
1t took a month for the caravan to
get clear Of their country, and during
that time thirty members of the expe-
dition died.
The hostility of the Turkhana seems
strange in the face Of the entirely diff
ferent demeanor observed in them by
the late Captain Wellby, whose useful
life was cut short in the unending
war.
When this gallant officer passed
through the Turkhana country he
found that the tribesmen fed at his
approach, leaving their villages entire
ly deserted.
Penetrating into the bush the cap
tain and his party saw several Turk
rnnuiDtr oh IN
They appeared, said the captain, to
be filled rather with fear and curios-
ity than with any intention of hostil-
ity.
These warriors, who moved about
the bush in little groups, were men Of
enormous stature, many Of them per-
feet giants in their build. They were
magnificent specimens of savage man
hood, and all were armed with spears
Of unusual length.
The most curious feature of their
personal adornment was their fashion
of dressing their hair. 1t fell in thick,
carefully woven masses right down to
their waist, forming a sort of net, in
which were primitive trinkets and
other ornaments.
AS for the Turkhana women, they
were so deadly frightened when they
saw Captain Wellby and his men, that
1t was plain they thought their last
hour had come. But by his kindliness,
and making some little present to
them each time he encountered them,
the captain eventually overcame their
fears, and by degrees the Turkhana
women, susceptible like all their kind
to the charms Of the sons Of Mars, lost
the despairing look which had over
spread their faces when they first
saw the white man.
Once, when the captain came upon a
party of Turkhanas, the savage giants
sprang to their feet and gazed at him
In profound astonishment, making no
sign either Of hostility OF terror.
Then, all Of a sudden, without any
visible cause, they turned and fled,
leaving everything behind them but
their spears.
Somehow these gentle giants seem
to have overcome their fear Of white
men.-LOndon Star.

EDUCATING WITHOUT BOOKS.
Children May BE Taught Rudiments of
Sciences While Playing.


No one doubts the tax that the care
of a child is to her mother Every
mother knows there is no release, the
strain is wearing, and children should
not be continually with their mother.
But when they are with her every mo-
ment should be valuable, mentally and
morally. How many women devote
their lives to the study of music, or
preparing for the stage. They give up
social life, pleasure and amusement
and spend enthusiastic years in study
An interest like that in the training
OF child brings sure results of good
Ella Wheeler Wilcox in speaking Of
the education of children says we
might call reason, judgment, intelli-
gence and fimness the walls Of room
while love and sympathy represent the
atmosphere within these walls. Then
there should be a roof of patience and
a spire of faith to make this building
worthy the name of home" Children
may be taught through their plays the
rudiments of the sciences. A Noah's

pearance of every animal existing, and

shears and needle says she learned the
art when a child by being taught to
make her dolls garments. Her moth
er showed her how to work carefully
and always spoke as if the dolls ward

her own. Even taking the trouble to
rip one Of her own seams when she
saw the child was doing poor work,

thing right. Geography may be taught
by pretended trips to various countries
found in different corners of the room,
telling of the different natives, animals
and foliage found there. Natural his
tory is taught during every walk the
parent takes with the children. The

are no more tax to the parent than
Mother Goose rhymes, and they make

ment between Conductors
Grimes and O'Connor, fathers and hus-
bands of the warning groups respec-
lively, were powerful factors in the
last chapter, but Casey's sweetheart,
with the sunlit hair, was the cause of
the trouble. She was innocent of all
evil intent, but between her comeliness
and Casey's feelings, the most serious
consequences nearly resulted to both
parties, not to mention two train loads
Of Italian laborers and bunch of the
company's money. And If it had not
been for that Lynn street feud and
the fact that both train crews took
sides therein-well, Casey and the girl
would not have gone picnicking the
next day.
How the feud originated no one
seemed to know, not even Casey, and
afterward he was too glad to accept
the bare fact to inquire. But after the
kids" the mothers took it up, and
the fathers had to follow suit to keep
peace in their own families. 1t was
serious by this time. Each of those
two men had said things which had
been passed along by mutual friends
till neither would speak to the other.
Oh, they were sore hearted. They met
face to face thaS morning in the little
booth next to the office where Casey
the train dispatcher held the chair.
One glared into space and the other
scowled, and they passed. Casey saw
them and laughed, and later in the
day was thankful that it was so.
"
Casey's division ran from Janesville
up to Baraboo or thereabouts, and
Grimes and O'Connor We're in charge
of the two gravel trains working the
cut north of Janesville. Their trains
loaded and shoveled off alternately at
the cut and the fill, as the case might
be- and small Were the civilities that
passed between crews.
Casey was rather u young man for
so responsible 4 calling, but there was
one line besides train dispatching at
which he was even less experienced,
and he was finding constantly that his
pathway was beset with new perpleX-
tiles and wondermcnts. This morning
he was absent minded, subject to un-
Wonted starts and other symptoms.
Casey hardly knew what was Wrong.
but he suspected strongly, and so did
Annie. 1t was hard to conine his
brain to the work in hand. Instead OF
train numbers and switches and sid
ings and stations his mind was filled
with such irrelevant matters as the
shape Of certain young woman's s
nose, and the way the sun shone in
her hair. But he pulled himself to-
gether and got the hang of the days
work before things began to snarl up.
The alternating gravel trains We're
attended to early. Conductor Grimes
and his fifty Italian laborers We're
sent back to the cut to finish loading
their train with gravel. O'Connor and
his gang were put to work for while
at the ill, unloading the fiat cars that
had been filed the night before by the
steam shovel. All this was easy. The
passenger trains and the through and
the way freights We're reported o. X,
and Casey allowed his mind to wan

would get Tomorrow for their trip up
