Children and Growth.

The year of greatest growth in boys
Is the seventeenth; in girls, the four
tenth While girls reach full height
in their fifteenth year. they acquire full
weight at the age of twenty. Boys are
stronger than girls from birth to the
eleventh year; then girls become supe-
nor physically to the seventeenth year,
when the tables are again turned and
remain so. From November to April
children grow very little and gain no
weight: from April to July they gain
In height. but lose in weight, and from
July to November they increase greatly

TO MAKE CEMENT BLOCKS
A Machine for the Construction of
the New Building Material
in Operation Here.

Miracle x Miracle. of Sioux Falls,
are setting up q machine at the Farm
ers' sheds for the construction Of ce-
ment blocks. The firm is going to
demonstrate the fact that cement
blocks can be made successfully. and
the apparatus that is employed in
pressing the blocks into shape gives
some indication that it can be done.
There is some prejudice against the
cement blocks for constructive pur-
poses, the belief being prevalent that
they will chip and crumble to the ex-
tent OF marring the exterior beauty
Of a building. MI. Miracle stated
that the method of mixing the in
gradients and the heavy pressure that
is brought to bear on the blocks Will
positively prevent any such deterior-
alton of them.
Geo. E. Logan is at the head of a
company which will doubtless be or
gained for the making Of the blocks.
All that MIR. Miracle will have to do
IS to show that the machine will do
the business and the company will
then very likely be formed. One block
made yesterday for a starter and
so far as external appearances are
concerned it would seem to answer
the purpose.

THE MODERN SALESMAN.
He Realizes the Necessity For Cor.
rect Dress In Buainess.

rect Dress In Business.
1t has bscoue the unwritten but
none the less stringent law that young
men shall dress we'll and neatly during
business hours. In many Of the lar
gest banks and financial institutions
none Of the clerks is permitted to go
coatless, and in the mercantile estab-
ilshments where statesmen are en-
pioyed loud attire is actually dis
Outraged. The old time salesman slo-
ried in his hamboyant cravats and
shirts, his diamonds and his peculiar
clothes. His capital in trade consisted
of a fashy appearance, vulgar stories,
a constitution that would stand intoxi-
eating liquor and an unlimited amount
of cheek. He did not have to know
anything about the goods he sold, ex-
cept in a general way. He slapped
men on the back, took them out to din
ner, got drunk with them and then
booked their orders. The modern sales
man is a well educated, neatly dressed
gentleman who knows all about the
goods he sells. He is never called upon
to drink, he never needs to dine out.
he trades on honor and brains, and his
customers are men who only admire
men who know a much as or more
than they do about their business.
Dress plays the most important part in
the game of commerce, no less with the
salesman than it does with the man
ufacturer, the mill man, the banker
or the financial man. They all dress
to impress their fellow men favorably.

The situation in France relative
to the Catholic church is a peculiar
one. By an arrangement with the
Pope of Rome the government of
France more than a century ago
agreed to support the clergy out of
state funds. The republic has often
found itself in discord with the
clergy, or rather the clergy seems to
engender friction with the admins
tration. Some of the Catholic or
ders have been compelled to close
their establishments and more are
under ban. The administration
claims that the clergy are hostile to
the republic and urge the re-estab-
lishment of the empire. The separ-
alton of church and state in France
cannot long be delayed. The gov
eminent must provide for its own
security.

England has announced a e'Mon-
roe Doctrine" to apply to the Per
sian Gulf shore line. No nation can
establish a naval station or fortified
base there without encountering the
opposition of the British empire.
This doctrine it will maintain with
all the force the empire can COM
mand. Considering England's in
terests in India and Africa with the
fact that the Seuz canal, England's
short cut to India, opens into the
Red Sea and the Red Sea and the
Persian Gulf both open into the
Arabian Sea, the reason of this
enunciation of this doctrine is appar-
ent. 1t is matter of providing for
self-preservation.

this subject was discussed. Some
of the churchmen insisted that the
Christian beliefs of the Episcopalian
church should be taught in their en-
tirety. Others thought that the
decalogue and the sermon on the
mount could be taught without in
Producing any sectarian doctrine.
Mr.. F. E. Hodgins made a state
ment in this conference that strikes
us as of more importance than all
the learned discussions of the clergy,
and it is on account of this statement
that we have introduced this subject.
He said: 81 would rather have
genuinely religious teachers than any
teaching of dogma" The fact is,
religion, Christianity, cannot be ig-
nored in the schools unless text
books are revised, expurgating all
references to deity, and these
schools under the conduct of athe-
lists. 1t matters little what the de-
nominational attachment or bias the
teacher has, SO long as he is not an
atheist he is bound to teach the prin-
ciples Of Christian ethics. 1t is
part of education. Christianity as
it dominates society enter largely
into the quantity and quality of gen
eral information. School boards
should enquire into the opinions of
teachers SO far as to satisfy them
selves that these teachers are not
atheists.

Religious Instruction In Public
Schools.

Religious instruction in public
schools has been a burning question
in the United States. Certain peo-
pie object to such instruction, even
to the reading of the Bible, because
sectarianism will be taught and one
denomination will profit to the detri-
ment of another. Christian people
have never been able to agree upon
a method that would even give the
fundamentals to be taught in the
public schools. Atheists do not
want any sort of religious instruc-
ton to be introduced, as matter of
course. And so in most states-or
certainly in many-all religious in
struction and exercises, including the
reading of the Bible, are excluded
from the schools. "Godless Schools, y
is an expression very commonly ap-
piled to our schools as a conse-
quence. This question is just now
agitating our neighbors, the Cana
dams. The Church of England in
sists upon some sort of religious in
struction in schools. A conference
was recently held at Toronto where

The question concerning the friar
orders in the Philippines is not set
tied but there is harmony in regard
to it between the government and
the head of the Catholic church.
The Pope desires that the Spanish
friars shall leave the islands and that
their places be filled by American
priests. This is certainly a wise
policy. The Filipinos want the
friars to leave, and it would seem
that if they should leave and their
places supplied by American priests,
it would be much better for this
government in its dealings with the
natives. The Spanish friars have
undoubtedly a leaning toward the
old national Spanish rule while
American priests would teach loyal
ty to this government. With the
head of the Catholic church work
ing to effect this transformation we
may be assured that the religious
question-that concerning the friars
will be settled right.

The British in Africa.

The British are continually ex-
tending rule in African territory.
Now two columns of British troops
are pushing campaign for the ex-
tension of empire-one in eastern
Africa on the Red Sea coast and
one in the western part of the con-
tinent on the Niger river, in what is
called Nigeria. The Fulah empire,
Northern Nigeria, has lately been
subdued by the result of battle be-
tween 500 British soldiers and 5000
tribesmen at Sokoto, the capital.
The ruling race in this region is
Mohametan but the great majority
of the people are pagans. In Som
aliland, on the east coast, where
another British column is operating
the ruling class is Mohametan.
These Mohametan fanatics are fierce
fighters and after battle with the
British there are never so many left
to conquer. This is a great con-
venience to the conquerors. A
Mohametan thinks he is happier
dead than alive and the British are
also happier when the Mohametan
is dead.
''He who fights and runs away
May live to fight another day.
but when force of these tribesmen
persist in rushing on Maxim guns
and British bayonets they are worth
nothing in subsequent battle.

This massacre of Jews by Rus
slams at Kishinef is a horrible thing.
Statements differ as to the number
killed, the lowest number mentioned
is 43. Many more were terribly in
jured. Count Cassini, the Russian
ambassador at Washington, says
the massacre was no. the result of
religious fanaticism. Religion had
nothing to do with it. The Jew is
not prosecuted on account of his re-
ligion. "The reason for this I'M
friendly attitude against certain of
the Jews in Russia, Austria and
Germany" says Count Cassini, els
found in the fact that they will not
work in the field or engage in agri-
culture. They prefer to be money
lenders. Give Jew a couple of
dollars and he becomes a banker,
a money lender. In this capacity he
takes advantage of men, soon has
them in his power and ultimately
destroys them. It is when the
patience of the peasant is exhausted
that the conflict occurs"
