A TRULY GREAT IDEA.
Brirlinnt Suggestion for the Inprove- ment of tbs FbaaEinS Gnme
 of Football.

The supporters of football are assern- bled in convention, says the Baltimore American.
 Gentlemen" says the spokesman, something must be done to add inter est to the game. l regret to acknowledge that in recent years, despite our efforts to wound main and kill, the sport has dwindled in public favor No doubt this is because of the increase in the number of wars, and the familiarity of the public with injuries from that cause; also be cause of the growth of the automobile fad. Hence, as l say, we must do some thing to put more ginger in the game. The point IS, what shall we do?"
 Here shaggy haired man arose in the rear of the hall and begged for a hear ing.
 Gentlemen" he said, q represent the Russo-American society of anarchy, and am also an enthusiastic football player. It occurs to me that if the ball were filled with dynamite instead of air 1t would"
 But the rest of his remarks were sim ply drowned in furious explosion of mad applause.

Rocky Mountain Pie.

q thoroughly enjoyed everything in the Sportsmen's show last week" said clerk in the New York postoffice, "because it was new to me. was born in a New England town, and knew little about such things. But my wife came almost from the base of Pike's Peak, and asked me to take her, so l did. As we were coming out I saw sign outside the restaurant, Rocky mountain pie In my opinion, you cannot tell New Englander much he doesn't know about pie, so I went in and asked for some. My wife said she did not know what was coming either. We'll. sir. it was revelation. There was a thick, rich bottom crust, with quarters of apples sticking up endwise all over it, and the little val leys in between them filled chock- a-block with delicious cream. It looked like snow between mountain ridges. My wife and I ate a whole pie bs- tween us."-N. Y. Times.

nne Anaxer for AII.

Lancaster, N. r., Mar. 30th.-Postmaster Remers IS still in receipt of many letters asking if his cure has held good.
 1t will be remembered that some time ago the particulars of MT. Remers' case were published in these columns. He had been very low with Diabetes. Physicians could do nothing to save him and he grew worse and worse till some one recommended Dodd's Kidney Pills. A treatment of this emedy was begun and when eight boxes had been taken MT. kemers began to see an improvement which continued as the treat ment proceeded till he was completely re- stored.
 He has since enjoyed perfect health and is as robust and able man as any in Lancas- ter Interviewed the other day he said:
 Many people wrote to me when the story of my case was first printed and some write to me yet asking if the cure was only tenn porary and if the diabetes has returned. have only one answer to everybody. Three years ago was very low with Diabetes. The best physicians failed to help me and Dodd' $ Kidney Pills cured me. lam well and strong and have not had the slightest return of the old trouble"

most impossible to imagine that these changes of effects can be so frequent in part of the world where there are no houses to cast deep shadows on the ground, no avenues of trees to vary the monotony of an ever brilliant sun. Still the changes are there, and so frequent that one never experiences feeling of unvaried sameness. One walks on, be it north, south, east or west, the same expanse of sand presents itself, appar- ently, too, the same palm trees and si- lent pool of water, and one is forced to ask ones self whether, in this whole world of desolation, no soul exists, no human body breathes-when, in the distance, an Arab is seen, his feet shoe less, his head devoid of turban or fez, bending to a pool of water washing. Soon he rises, having performed his ablutions, to turn to the east, and there, alone on the desert, now kneel- ing, now standing, ever intent on his duties towards his prophet, he prays to his God. Cananything be more impress sive than such scene? No temple or church, not even Mohammedan mosque, in which to offer his soul to his God, his prayers to Heaven. There alone, amidst solitude almost incon- ceivable, he performs his acts of wor- ship.

The Best Way to Teach History.

The idea of object teaching, the founda- ton of the Froebel system of instruction, has in recent years met with general accept ance and adoption in almost every branch oi education, high and low, with resultant ben efits which are beyond question. Even such subjects as gfammer and arithmetic are now taught in this way so far as practicable, and with marked advantage over the old dry and abstract method. The practice oi teaching history by making pilgrimages to the very scenes where great historical events have occurred is an application of the same principle and much more valuable in the way of impressing the reality of history upon the minds of the young than any amount of mere textbook instruction could be. A re cent issue of the "Four-Track Series," pub lished by the New York Central manage ment, gives description of the historical sites in the immediate vicinity of New York which will be of exceeding value for the guidance of teachers and others who desire to adopt this method of historical study One of the best ways to develop civic pride and promote good citizenship lies in this very direction, an increase of knowledge oi local history being accompanied with an in crease of interest in matters of local govern ment and higher concern for what affects the welfare and good name of the commu- nity.-From Leslie's Weekly.

after it has passed; and then, the same calm, no rustling of trees, no human voice to disturb the working of mans imagination, nothing but vast area of sand with an occasional pool of water and a score or more of palm trees. Above, a sky of blue so vivid that an artists brush can hardly dare to depict the color; at times, during the later months of winter, clouds may ob literate the sun, casting dark shadows on the sand, at one moment the color of gold, at another almost red. So varied are the colors one has barely time to realize the particular tint of gold or red before cloud may come or haze form a veil over the sun, and the scene is changed; a cold, dismal feeling creeps over one, feeling of absolute loneliness, an indescribable solitude; one shivers inwardly- with fear but with the overpowering sense of des- olation. A few moments only may elapse. moments that seem during that brief interval of passing darkness like an eternity and the sun will cast his golden rays on the scene again, light ing up the sand, which appears even more brilliant in its color, now, after the interval of darkness.
 Each hour, each moment even, of the day, the effects produced are va ried, be they a change in the atmos- phere or a change produced by the sinking or rising of the sun. It is all

est hovel in the east end of London can hardly compete for filth and squalor, after the beauties and stiffness of the desert, is crushing; it disturbs ones peace, the impressions one has formed the change is too sudden. And yet even a scene such as this has it's charms no discontent, no brawling or fight ing such as one meets with in Europe amongst people of the same class; no drunkenness, again, perhaps not from choice, but because they have never tasted that form of degradation, and because their religion forbids it.
 The further south one goes the more brilliant the sun, the more golden the sand, seldom haze or cloud to relieve the scene. The only thing to break the stiffness of the air is an occasional khamseen, whirlwind of sand, no art ist dare paint it and do credit to it, the wind so fierce that no one can stand up to it, clouds of sand so dense thatit ob- literates everything. The houses swarm with flies, which have become stunned by the ferceness of the gale, making life almost unbearable with their incessant torment, the wind is so hot and stifing, blowing from across the Sahara, and lasting, sometimes, two or three days, that breathing al- most becomes difficult, until at last the welcome calm again appears, a relief bringing with it the cooler air and bright sunshine.
