In every walk in life. 10 accomplish our purpose. we must know clearly at the start what we mean to do. If colleges and schools would really succeed in turning out educated men and women in the high est sense of the word, they must first defne that term. Is 1t to stand for nothing more than instruction in facts or other peoples ideas? Or is it to include soul culture. life broadening and true development and efficiency To my mind mothers are largely re- sponsible for a childs (especially a daughter's) aimless life The sole de- sire of, alas! so many, is that their children chol r,h;I Ia they're young. And this is right enough, but they should remember that the good time of the butterfly is not necessarily the good time of the girl, and that the true good time and growth of character are not incompat- ible.
 True womanliness should be one of the chief elements of a young wom- ans education The unpardonable sins of womanhoCd are hardness and coarseness. dearth of gentleness and any guise of selfishness. A virtue that should be earnestly cultivated by the woman of to-day is a greater sheer ity in the manners and customs of society. This is the contribution all true women should make to the so- ciety of their time. Society needs gen. tie women in the true sense of that word. Only that education is worth while which stands for service to the world-in some form, material or i'm material, and the latter is often the more real of the two. In fact, the ideal, whatever it be. is the real an oft said saying. but one as often forgotten in the details of daily life.
 Tt is the privilege and no less the duty of every one who aspires to be called an educator to ever hold up this vision of the ideal. ever follow the gleam'-live the great revelation ip the details of daily life.'

Adelaide enjoys the distinction of be. the oldest municipality in Australia It vas named after the queen of William ", in whose reign 1t was founded, and its principal thoroughfare bears the name of King William street. Its olde st newspaper. the South Australian Regis. ter, was first published in London as the organ of the South Australian associa- ton, the body under whose auspices the pioneer settlers and founders of Adelaide were dispatched from England.

men in khaki; and in the eyes of the damsel of Hawaii the army man began to take the place of the naval officer; the brass buttons with whom she had long been acquainted. But the indica- tions are that the naval man is to come into his own again.
 Considerable study has been made of the question of defense for the Hawaii an islands, but active measures for es- tablishing a naval station at Pearl Harbor have been delayed from time to time. The preliminary projects for Pearl Harbor were in readiness quite while before congress voted the re- Quired money for the improvements, and after the sum was voted the work was further postponed. The Army and Navy Journal, commenting on the "uncompleted links in our chain of na- tional defenses." says that the work projected at Pearl Harbor is of special importance and should be pushed to completion with all possible speed. but that it would be downright folly to es- tablish the station without properly fortifying it. "A first-class naval base at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii, and an- other in the Philippines, both adequate ly fortified, would he almost indispen- sable to the navy in struggle on the Pacific, and without them our squad rons would have to work under almost immeasurable disadvantages.

Peceary Hunting.

Peccary hunting Is usually both dan- gerous and fatiguing About ten or 12 logs are set upon the trial of drove the huntsmen following as best they may on foot. When the dogs come up with the peccaries the little animals turn to bay in a closely packed, squealine crowd. Often the veteran boars of the herd rush out upon their canine enemies and it is seldom that hunt passes with out one or more dogs being killed or bad ly injured. Careless and inexperienced huntsmen are also liable to be badly mauled, for the peccaries seems incap- able of fear and rush madly at any nov. ..ng object, be it dog or man.

AN UNLUCKY DEAL.
Illustrating the Mistake of Man Who Tries tO Help Around
 the House.

When a married man gets out of his orbit, or off his half of the domestic carpet, so to speak, the consequences are always more or less disastrous to him, says the Detroit Free Press.
 We've just moved" said an unhap- py-looking man in little neighbor- hood crowd of men who were buying their evening cigars at a corner to- bacco shop. "Or, rather, we are half gone over to the new place, and half is still with us. Then sold lot too, and got myself in awful hot water You know how it is when man starts out in his own house to do things without asking his wife"
 "Oh, yes; we know" echoed all the others.
 Tn our stable attic" the man con- tinued i've had a lot of old stuff stored. I've heard my wife say dozen times that we must look it over and sell a good deal of it the next time we moved. To-day she was over to the other house, and as 1 was kind of stand ing round. not knowing where to take hold next, along came a junk man through the alley. I hailed him and took him up in the stable attic; there I sold him an old table, an old high chair. battered old crib and a car pet. He gave me six dollars for the lot. found box of old battered brass trays. plaques and picture frames after he was gone, and peddled those off at a nickel apiece to some neighborhood children who were tagging me around all day
 "Of course, man never really knows what he has sold until his wife tells him; and tomorrow I'm to chase all day after that junk man. I've sold our best parlor carpet, taken up when sum- mer came in, my wife's own highly treasured infants high chair and a crib which was also her mothers, and a real mahogany table she had stored away to have done over. She herself had paid nine dollars for the old table, and was glad to get it at that Old ta- bles are getting scarce. she says"
 How about the brass objects?" some one asked.
 "Oh, I've got to go around and buy those back, too" the man replied, sad ly. They were high-art beaten brass nondescripts which my wife made her self at the age of 13, and she says her mother wouldn't part with them for anything"

 The navy was established. It con- sisted of single ship made over into war vessel. This mighty armada, in the endeavor to make it's master em- peror of Polynesia, set sail for Samoa The enterprise did not meet with sue cess; but the doughty captain of the vessel never returned to Hawaii to give in his report, having fallen under the many seducti0ns that invite one to finger in the isles of the South sea.

dispensed with vulgar publicity. That
he has given millions away does not
paliate the offenses of wrongdoer,
but it does emphasize the necessity for
guarding against the implanting of per-
nicious ideals in the minds of the
young.
For half century business morals
have increased in laxity and we are on
the threshold of an epoch which is en-
phasized by great dearth of morality
in the woof and warp of commercial
life.
The remedy lies beyond the reach of
revised moral and corrective systems;
moral character cannot be successfully
cultivated amidst the temptations of
business life unless it has been bred in
the bone.
A deep seated resolve, born of native
integrity of the soul, TO keep clean
from all taint of dishonesty or crooked
dealing in deed, word, or even in
thought--this is one of the important
factors in the development of the kind
of character needed today; needed
more than ever at this time because of
the grasping spirit of sordid CONNER
cialism which threatens at times to blot
out all the finer instincts of man; need
ed because men ought to be men first
and money-makers afterwards.
Men whose daily lives are actuated
by such resolve viii, be a source of
strength and stability to the business
world, and tho they may not reach the
highest pinnacle of success, as success
is usually measured, they will leave
their impress OH the commercial world,
and do their share in casting the future
in a better mold than the past.

Beside the shining rivers brim,
By vital green of grasses spanned
And circIed by the hills that rim
The blue horizons wonderland,
The ruins of a dwelling rise
Pathetic to the evening skies.
Mounds, where hearthire once was bright
And tumbled rails that girdled in
A garden with its blooms alight
And waving growths, their next of kin;
Above, a well-sweep rising sheer
Out of the wreck of many year.
An eloquence of what is past
BrOods like ghost around the place;
The dreams that brick and stone Outlast
Sit peering In each others faces
Lo! every cornerstone is rife
With phantoms of forgotten life!
Here love was potent, work and play
Lifted twin voices clear and strong;
There is no other sound today
Save music of the rivers song:
Across the crumoled years they call,
The well-sweep and the ruined wall.
