watched with interest the race to see
if Sabrie would run the circuit before
Longley got the ball home Sabrie
crossed the plate, but Ashton was
caught at third. Thomas, a Vicksburg
player who was umpirng, allowed
only one run and Sabrie ran out TO
argue with him. Blackburn contends
that Sabrie applied vile language and
Sabrie has like contention. The
men got excited and Blackburn hit
Sabrie on the nose, drawing blood.
Some Of the blood splashed on Blake,

the greatest lover ot animals in that
town, yet she kills from 500 to / 1000

five years ago, when her interest in
dumb animals brought many cases
to her attention III which nothing
could be done but to put the animal
as painlessly as possible to death.
The work gradually extended, until
now Mrs Scott is called upon when

kills them by putting them in a box

4 Question of pluraIs.

Though many grammars give lists
of words having irregular formation
of plurals, the many kinas OF fish or
fishes, With arbitrarily formed plur-
ais, are omitted. The need for such a
list is shown by quoting few exam
Plies. For instance, people speak of
herrings, but never of Writings.
Every one writes soles, sprats, lam
phreys, anchoyies. the singular form
rarely, if ever doing for the plural,
but no one would write mackerels,
Gods, salmons or trouts. On the other
hand considerable uncertainty exists
concerning the form of the plural of
other kinds. Who snail decide which
is correct, turbot or turbots, sturgeon
or surgeons, carp or carps?

VALUE OF COLLEGE TRAINING.
AWakens the Student to the Problems
Ci the World

1t may as we'll be admitted that
COLLEGE training does not teach a man
to keep books or to sell goods. What
education aims to do is to educate
10 develop the man, to awaken him
to the problems Of the world, to
widen his horizon. There is no dan
ger that not enough attention shall be
given to commercial DEVELOPMENT.
But there is possibility that the
business man may become narrowed
10 his task and fail to take an inter
est in the world Of ideas about him
Education ought not to prevent d
man from acquiring the necessary dc
tails Of business. And it ought to
make him more valuable citizen.
That most successful business men
believe this is shown by the fact that
they are sending their sons to college.

Worth of Gypsum Plaster.

Gypsum plaster is largely displacing
lime mortar as wall finish. Not only
is it found to be more suitable and
durable, but it's strength and hardness,
and the fact that construction can be
completed more quickly when it is
used, have brought it into favor. 1t
also has great value as a neutralizer
of alkali in soils. The belt Of country
extending from Iowa through Kansas
and Oklahoma and into Texas in
cludes the plants which produce a
large part OF the output of gypsum
west of the Mississippi river. The
deposits in these states are practically
inexhaustible.
