hope that congress will be as gener-
Gus to the Philippines, as it was to
Porto Rico. The reduction of the
Dingley tariff will mean the opening
up of n large market for tobacco and

other products there. Hemp you

SOARING THE LIONS.
Fierce Forest Kings Driven On by
Initiating the Cries of
a. Pack of Wolves.

M. Foa, the French explorer, says
that lions have a wholesome fear of
African wolves, which hunt in packs,
and do not scruple to attack even the
lion. There are terrible battles in
which the lion succumbs to numbers,
and dies fighting. In connection with
the lions fear of wolves NJ. Foa tells
story from his own experience.
1t was a very dark night, SO dark
that trees could not be distinguished
until the travellers were close upon
them. Lions prowled about the party,
one of them roaring from point so
close as to have an alarming effect
on the nerves. The animals could not
be seen, but they could be heard on
all sides.
Reaching a tree, the men found one
of their comrades with rifle cooked,
peering into the darkness, trying to
discover the whereabouts of the an
imal, which could be\plainly heard
walking among the leaves. A. second
man was trying to relight half-ex-
-tinguished torch. Still the lions could
be heard coming and going in the
darkness.
At this point the native servant
whispered the advice to initiate the cry
of wolves in the distance. The party
at once began barking and crying:
"Hu. hu! hui" in an undertone, as if
the pack were still at distance, while
the man at the camp made the same
well-imitated cry.
The effect was instantaneous. There
was the sound of a rapid stampede
across the dry leaves. The lions de-
camped in panic, driven off by the
supposed approach of pack of wolves.
For the rest of the night the party was
uudiSturbed

She rose from her seat, and the
mother turned an appealing face to-
wards her.

crazy thing. AT least, you shall not

you to throw yourself away! To
think of my daughter becoming a

you even to suggest it. 1t is a part
of your college foolishness. You have

"No, mother, dear, have not" Bar

down by her, putting her hands in

hand-"a burden to good mother

legacy, daily growing smaller, and the
diminutiye interest on an insurance
fund that is badly invested in west
ern land. There's my biography up
to be doing something to be making
some money, even if it is only little,
to be a breadwinner, even if"
"But to be hired girl Barbara!
Do you realize what it means? Why,
it means social loss, it means drop
ping out of the circle of good society,
it means daily drudgery of the hard
est kind, it means going to the bot
tom of the ladder, and always staying
there! And you, Barbara, of all
girls, fitted to teach, an exceptionally
good student, bright and capable. o,
how does it happen that girls who
are your interiors have secured good

Pulls" said Barbara, briefly.
Mrs. Clark looked troubled. us

"No, mother. Political. I mean that
the other girls have had influence. If
father were alive"
''Ah, Barbara, if your father were
living, there would be no talk of
your going to work in a kitchen. And
you shall not go, either. 1t is the
height of absurdity to think of it,"
"But, mother" Barbara began, after
"a moments silence, ''do you realize
the facts, the plain, homely facts, of
our existence? Every day you are
drawing on Uncle Willis legacy, and
next months rent and grocery bill
will eat large hole in it. 1 have
been a whole year at home, living in
idleness, and eating my bread in Bit
terness because l could see the end
coming. There is no one who is in
any way bound to help us. Why
should 1 let false pride keep me
from doing honest labor of the hand?
And there is more of it than you
imagine, mother dear. 1t takes more
than a low order of intellect to man
age the affairs of a family as a
housekeeper, doesn't it?"
Mrs. Clark did not answer, and Bar
bara went on: "You know, mother,
made special study in college of So
cial economics. The application of
those principles to a real, live prob
lem had great fascination for me.
Now, the hired-girl problem in this
country is real, live, social and eco
nomic problem. Why shall I not be
able to do as much real service to So
ciety and the home life of America, by
entering service as hired girl and
studying it from the inside, as if went
into schoolroom like other school
ma 'ams, to teach? 1 love adventure.
Why not try this? No one knows how
much l might be able. to do for hui
manity socially as hired girl"
Mrs. Clark looked at her daughter
again with that questioning look of
doubt which she often felt when Bar
bara spoke in certain way. 1t was
not the girls habit to treat any sub
ject fiippantly. She was talking with
great seriousness now, and yet there
were ideas in what she said that her
mother could not in the least under
stand.

He sent in to three of the leading

Humility Instead of Pride.

Humility Instead of Pride.
An interesting feature of the state
teachers association at Topeka was
the famous author-preacher, as con-
ductor of the 'round table," DIR.
Sheldon, in opening the round table,
declared that the truly educated man
should be possessed of humility in
stead of pride. He deplored the dis
position on the part of educated peo-
pie to rise above the uneducated. and
declared that teachers should appre-
ciate the value of service. The differ
.ence between paganism and Chris
tianity, he said, was that paganism
sought to get all it could out of the
world, while Christianity endeavored
to put all it could into the world.
Legacy for Historical Society.
The largest beneficiary of the es-
tate of the late Richard J. Hinton,
journalist, author and soldier, who
died recently in London, will be the
Kansas Historical society. 1t will re-
ceive the big collection of relics and
manuscripts owned by Col. Hinton.
These all have bearing on Kansas.
more especially the manuscripts.
The colonel was close friend of John
Brown during the early Kansas
troubles. He was newspaper man
at the same time. He was in posi-
ton to pick up lots of stuff that
would be valuable, historically, later
on, and with a newspaper mans in
stinct he gathered it in and pre-
served it.
Not on the Programme.
Carrie Nation, the Kansas joint
smasher, attempted to address the
state teachers association. Going up
to the speakers stand, Mrs. Nation
told President Sinclair that she had
been requested to speak by a large
number of the teachers. The presi-
dent informed her that he had heard
nothing of such request. Without
waiting for an introduction Mrs. Ma
ton advanced to the front of the
platform and began to address the
teachers in her usual style. She was
removed before she had fairly started.
Trials of the National Aid.
The National Aid association, which
was recently shut out of South Da-
kota, is a fraternal organization
started in connection with the Farm
ers' Alliance in 1891. 1t has a debt of
$4,000 with no assets. Recently a
union with the Bankers Union, of
Omaha, was attempted, but it failed
because of the interference of other
orders. A receiver was then asked
for, but none has been appointed as
yet. The order has about 5000 mem.

The "Needle's Eye"

A lady writes to me and asks what
is really meant by the needles eye
in the parable Of the rich man. re-
member reading somewhere that it was
the smallest gate that gave entrance
to the walled city Of Jerusalem anu
that q loaded camel had to be stripped
of its burden and bend its knees to
squeeze through. And so rich man
had to give up his riches and come
TO his knees before he could enter
heaven. II was just one OF the thou-
sand proverbs that adorned the moral
teachings of the Jews and the eastern
nations. The writings Of job and Solo
mon and Confucius and Mohammed
abound in them.
In the Koran is found this proverb,
"rhe impious man will find the gates
of heaven shut. and he can no more en-
ter than camel can pass through a
needles eye" There is another In
the Koran which says. You will never
see q palm tree of gold nor an elephant
pass through needles eye" These
proverbs simply meant that it was I'M
possible. Strange to say. the world
has long since quit making proverbs.
All proverbs have come down to u.s.
even such as "A rolling stone gathers
no moss" Poor Richard" left us a
few. such as "a penny saved Is two
pence gained" BILL Arp in Atlanta
Constitution.
