Peanut Race.

A peanut race is one of the most
absurd spectacles imaginable for the
spectators and thoroughly exciting
for the racers. Two persons race to-
gether. Each receives a peanut, a
match, and minute in which to roll
the peanut around the room, using
the match as a propeller. The boy
or girl who gets over the course soon
est wins the race. There are no rules,
except that the nut can be touched
with the match only and that the en-
tire room must be skirted. If the
room is large one, time limit of
more than minute may be necessary.
When all of the party have had turns
at racing, the winners in the different
contests form tournament, which
lasts until a single player remains in
the field. This one becomes champion
and wins the prize. Exchange.

HOUSEHOLD.
THE GREATNESS OF ONE THING.

1t is rare to find woman who can
put one great thing first in her life
and then make all other things secon-
dairy to it. A man does this. He puts
his business first, and all things are
adjusted thereto. In that very ad-
justment of things lies his success. If
a woman has home. for example,
that home and its proper study in all
of its phases should be the very first
thing in her life. Mind you, I do not
say her whole life: say the first thing,
just as man places his business first
In proportion as woman studies that
home and it's wisest management she
brings leisure to herself, exactly as
by systematic management of his
affairs man brings leisure to himself.
A complete absorption of domestic
affairs, to the exclusion of all other
things is as dwarfing to woman as
complete absorption of business af-
fairs is detrimentalto man. A relief
from the things which regularly
absorb us the major part of each day
is vitality necessary. But the nature
of that relief should be carefully
studied. The same Commemorative
force must be applied to our recrea-
ton as we apply to our vocation.
The honest thing to do is to do a
thing for itself-because we love it,
because we believe in it, because we
feel that it is the thing of all other
things that we feel we can do and
would like to do. Then we bring
mind and heart together, and that is
ever combination that nothing can
withstand in it's highest and best re-
suits. Then we bring an honesty
of purpose and power of energy
that always make for success to
to ourselves. For that one thing
every woman should search herself to
find. What is the one thing above
and beyond all other things, that I
would like to do and feel that I can
do? is the question she should ask
herself. When we become honest
with ourselves we become effective.
We need have no fear that this con-
finement to one expression of our
selves will have narrowing influence.
There is no way to knowledge that
does not open to us all other ways.
The study of any single life leads to
the history of the world.-Ladies'

w. G. T. u. COLUMN.
GERMANY'S FIGHT AGAINST wHISKEY.

Another bubble has burst. The ar
gument that the free use of beer in
Germany prevented whiskey drink
ing has turned out to be boomerang.
Count Douglas, supported by mem
bers of the National, Liberal, the Con-
sentative, and the Polish parties, has
introduced INTO the Prussian Diet a
measure asking the Prussian govern
ment to legislate against the excessive
use of spirits.
This is not surprising when the fact
is known that the revenue which the
government derives from distilled
liquors is 165, 200, 900 marks as against
100000, 900 from beer, and that the
German people who drink one hun
dred and twenty liters of beer per
capita, drink also thirteen liters of
spirits. Statistics recently compiled,
under the law placing the families of
drunkards under guardianship, show
that there are 10000 families of con-
firmed drunkards in Germany, and in
Prussia 21,361 persons affected with
alcoholism who are confined in hos
pitfalls, insane asylums, and homes for
inebriates.
The student life and army life are
two places where this excessive use of
alcohol is especially felt. The health
of the students is being undermined
and their morals are suffering from
the drinking habits that prevail in the
universities. The same can be said of
the military life, for most of the duels
that have taken place recently have
grown out of drinking affairs, after
which the officers were the worse for
liquor.
1t is no wonder that thoughtful
Germans should see the danger, and
endeavor by such measure as has
been presented to check an increase
in alcoholism. The bill proposes four
things: the prevention of adulteration,
limiting the hours of selling spirits,
prohibiting the sale to drunkards and
minors, and the esta blishment of
state institutions for the cure of in
ebriates. To US these would seem
mild measures, but the German is
very jealous of regulation of his
drinking, and Germany is just awak-
ing to the fact that it's people are in
the tolls of the terrible python, alco-
hole. E. World.

ABOUT WOMEN.

The first photographs of the de-
struction Of st. Pierre were taken by
a woman, Mrs. II. Merrill, of New
York, who was a passenger on a
steamer that entered the harbor the
day after the first volcanic eruption.
Mrs. Emma Shaw Oobleigh, of Bos-
ton, a member of the National Geo.
graphical Society, sailed on May "a
for Genoa, from whence she will go
on an exploring tour into the wilds of
Central Africa. Mrs. Cobleigh, who
is writer of some note, has been to
the South Seas, Cuba, Australia and
the Klondike.
Florence Nightingale, the "Lady
with the Lamp" is now nearly Sugars
old. The English nation gave her a
testimonial of ESQ, 900 for the splendid
nursing services she rendered to the
sick and wounded in the Crimea, but
with the magnanimity which charac-
terized her whole career, she spent
the whole of this sum in the establish
ment and maintenance of an institu-
ton for the training of nurses.
Mrs. Emma Cadwalader Guild has
completed fine bust of the late Pres
ident Mckinley. 1t is pronounced
one of the most lifelike productions
yet seen.
The Countess AdeIine Schimmel-
mann continues her missionary labors
among the seamen, having expended
nearly $4,000 in the work during the
past year, over $4,000 of which was
from her private purse.
Mrs. Ellen w. Palmer, of Wilkes
barre, Pa, has devoted herself fol
ten years to the task of providing
profitable entertainment for the
"breaker" boys of that city. Sever
hundred boys now enjoy the benefits
of an evening school, gymnasium
debating clubs, etc., in good build
ing adapted to such purposes, which
was erected on land donated to Mrs
Palmer by the city.-Erchange.

vacation In the Country.
The influence of country life upon
children is always good. Our great
est men have, almost without excep
ton, been country bred. The hard
ships and deprivations there seem to
strengthen their minds as we'll as
their bodies. Mother Nature puts her
mark of reserve force and purity
upon those of her children who live
80 close to her, while those of exclu-
sive city life must draw their inspira-
ton from an artificial source. Coun-
try life offers the opportunity for
satisfying the creative instinct which,
if not stifed, exists in all. There are
materials to utilize, rainy days to use
and suggestions at hand-the example
of birds and bees, the inspiration of
all Nature. Children in the country
have something to do, and that in
itself is pleasure to any normal
child.
Parents who wish the best for their
children will plan to give them some
time each year in the country, and
naturally the summer will be chosen,
go that the. time can be spent out-of-
doors. Polish and education can be
acquired later in life, but the wonder

When and How Pansies Grow Best.

Give them, if possible, place where
they will be sheltered from the hot
afternoon sun. Cut off the old flowers
as they fade, and keep the ground
mellow and free from weeds. They
will bloom we'll until the hot days of
midsummer. Then their flowers will
be small, and there will not be many
of them. 1t is good plan to cut the
cd plants back at that time, and
allow them to renew themselves for

lay in the heavy expense Of such a

GERS a fund of $4,000 was raised.
The Continental officers set on their

to meet them at Wethersteld. All
