The New Education.

Harper's Magazine.
 My friend was teaching tho primary class in a city Sunday School. The les son was the story of the wandering rs- raelites who were miraculously fed upon mama.
 q don't know" she said. In soft aside to me- just what mama looks like, but I have this little bottle of homeopathic pills for an illustration taking from her pocket a tiny phial and shaking 1t lightly.
 She made the story interesting. and ev- cry little face was turned upward expec- tantly as she proceeded. She told of the cloud by day and the pillar of fire at night, the coming of the quails and the fali of mama. then rapidly reviewing the whole, asking questions to test the atten- ton of her audience.
 And what did the Lord feed the chil- dren of Israel uponT' she asked.
 "Pills! they all shouted. without a dissenting voice.
 Then, for moment there was silence. while the teacher bent low, to look into her reticule after something which waa not to be found.

dicial arm clearly expounding and stead lily enforcing the law, 1t does not seem difficult to forecast the outcome of the evolution whih is going on in the indus trial world. and which seems to be full of promise and encouragement under the beneflcent law which Edward Atkinson discovered and which he and Robert Griffin have demonstrated, to wit: That labor is receiving steadily increasing share of a steadily increasing product and that capital is receiving steadily diminishing share of an increasing pro- duct. still insuring for 1t an adequate re- muneratlon.
 Ut should be a matter of congratula- ton that the formation of trades unions cOntemporaneOusly with the rapid growth of large corporations, whose stock Is dt- vided into such small shares as to admit of easy ditribuuon. clears the way for the new era when every intelligent work man will insist upon being an owner, and every well-managed corporation will see that its workmen are directly interested in the results of the business. To effect this desirable end no compulsory legis- lation and no addition to the power of corporations are needed. The points which 1 desire to enforce by these argu- ments are:
 .First-That the industrial world has been steadily moving during the present century in the right direction for the wei fare of mankind.
 "Secon A-That 1t is not necessary to in- yoke any new principles of government or to inaugurate any revolution in order that capital and labor faay be associated together in peace and harmony. Pro- gress is rather to be sought in diffusing Knowledge of the principles upon which goN crEment is founded. and by approD i1- ate legislation.
 'Third-That the time is approaching when ca 0italists and iaborers will more and more be joint owners in the instru- ments of TIoduction. That. while the wages system will necessarily survive, the workmen will. to a large extent, be- come their own employers. and finally may hire capital as capital now hires labor.
 "Fourth-That the invasion of govern ment into the domain of industry must be met wits uncompromisfng opposition. The proper functions Of government are supervision, regulation and adjudication. The work of production and distribution belongs to the citizens. Any departure from this principle must result in the ruin of free government and the substi- tuition of despotism, the characteristics Of which are communism, anarchiSm and nihilism.

BUYS STOCK OF CORK LEGS.
Virginia Sheriff Fixes Himself for
 His Strenuous Occupation.

Minneapolis Tribune.
 Barney Kelley, sheriff of Franklin County, Va, is in Minneapolis. Mr Kel- ley has a wooden leg acquired in the way of business. He had occasion to chase a prisoner through the mountain fastnesses of his State some years ago. and the convict unfeelingly shot Barney in the leg, necessitaung amputation of the limb
 MT. Kelley has been sheriff of his coun- ty for several terms since the mishap He finds it necessary to ride on horseback good deal, and the hickory leg pro- duced in Virginia is not entirely condu- cive to ease in any sort of q saddle.
 In order that he might have a leg of the psoper proportions. and of some fiexibility, MT. Kelley came to Minnea- polls three years ago on the advice of d Rlchmond surgeon, who assured him that nowhere in the United States were such legs turned out as in Minneapolis The sheriff bought his leg here and has since utilized 1t in running foot races, iump- ng long jumps, riding across bad coun- try after bad men and otherwise has severely tested the quality of the limb
 Kelley's leg is a leg to tie to. 1t has stood him in good stead when the original might have let him drop, because he has twice been shot in the cork by despera- does of his rather sultry bailiwick The last shot hit one of the springs in the Minneapolis cork leg and put 1t out of business-temporarily at least
 MT. Kelley began hurried correspond ence to find out where and how he could get his leg doctored soonest. It developed that nobody outside of Minneapolis could reconstruct a Minneapolis leg. whereupon the bold sheriff of Franklin County hied himself once more to the Minnesota fac tory which turns out the only really. af- tective artistic legs in the United States.
 This time. however. Mir. Kelley will not 20 back with just one leg. He has order ed a dozen at $125 apiece. Any time he gets shot in one of the Minneapolis legs he will promptly don another and go on with the chase From the number Of times that Kelley has been shot by ruff Hans in Virginia it appears that he might bs the gaincr if he laid in stock ot arms and other etceteras as a preliminary xo resuming business at the old stand

ALL ABOUT THE WEDDING.
THIRTY-THREE SUBJECTS IN RELATION TO
THIS CEREMONY TREATED IN MRS
KINGSLAND's BOOK

That everything the subject OF matrimony
is interesting TO women is the practically safe
assumption Of Mrs. Burton Kingsland, in the
making OF her Book Of Weddings" recently pub
ished by Doubleday. Page Co. The volume
touches on every point in the wide Of matri
rnonial natters-expenses. e. foreword to the
bride customary courtesies to the bridal attend
ants wedding gifts breakfasts suppers. second
marriages and how other peoples marry. There
are also illustrations OF artistic home and
church decorations. the correct thing in flower girl
garlands. "sheaf' and shower bouquets and other
helpful suggestions to the mistress Of ceremonies
on these exacting occasions.
The authors wide reading, well her sense
Of humor, has enriched her thirty-three chapters
with numerous quotations, quaint and beautiful,
and sprinklng of funny incidents OF the faux pas
order that will doubtless have the effect OF
dissertation on 'Don'ts" for the prospective par
ticipant Even for those not directly interested
the book makes pleasant reading.
An evening wedding. says Mrs. Kingsland, has
never been known In England. BY a canon Of 1903
the English clergy prohibited from celebrating
a marriage at any time except between the hours
of s and u in the forenoon. A popular falacy held
that such a ceremony performed in the afternoon
was void. The 'canonical" hours are now between
a. m. and D. m, during which every marriage
must be solemnized. unless special license IS
granted by the Archbishop Of Canterbury, at a
cost OF about $50 1t is supposed that the forenoon
was appointed the fitting time for marriage be-
cause of the rule in the early Church that the

OF the custom is that after noon the bridegroom s
