WOMAN AND THE PROVERBS.
Sayings Of Different Countries That
Are Anything But Compile
mentnry to Her.

A wonderful similarity exists in
the sayings about women current in
the various nations, says the New
York Sun.
The Spanish rhyme has it: "Were
a woman as little as she is good, a
pea pod would make her a gown and
a hood"
Anold English saying: IF a man lose
a woman and a farthing, he will be
sorry he lost the farthing."
The French adage: "a man of
straw is worth a woman of gold"
The German: There are only two
good women in the world-one dead,
and the other can't be found"
The Scotch say: Honest men
marry soon, wise men never"
In Fife they say: "The next best
thing to 10 wife is a good wife"
The Arabian declares: words are
women; deeds are men,"
The Persian sage says that a wom-
ans wisdom is under her heel.
The German atfirms that every
beautiful daughter of Eve would
rather be beautiful than good.
The German also asserts that
whenever there is mischief brewing
a woman and a priest are at the bot
tom of it..
The Persian asserts that women
and dreams are best out of the
world.
The Corsican says: Just as a good
and a bad horse both need the spur,
a good and a bad woman both need
the stick"
The Hindoo: ga man is not obeyed
by his wife in his w house, nor
does she consider MIN her husband,
unless he beats her" Another Hin
doc proverb says: "Drive out a wom-
ans nature with a pitchfork, and it
will return again and again.

A SURPRISE.

l never dreamed she thought of me
My sweet child ,~neighbor; sever
The blossom of her life had blown,
And to my saddened heart and lone
She seemed a bit Of Heaven.
l never dreamed she thought of me,
For l was old. with weary years,
And worn and gray, and what had she,
The laughing child, in sympathy
With life so stepped in tears?
l never dreamed she thought of me-
The darling one bleak morning came.
Like flash of spring on wintry hills,
A bunch of golden daffodils,
And scrawled with love" her name.
l never dreamed she thought of me-
A dear surprise of love, to bless
My chilling soul and keep 1t warm,
And live within my heart, a charm
To conjure bitterness.

IVA ISIS NANCY stood at the kitchen
lVI window, holding the snowy cur-
tains close together, and yet through
the tiny crack between them watching
the two, who were walking gayly away
from the orchard. The hand that held
the curtains together trembled, and
the eyes that watched were wistfully
conscious of the sprin2time blossoms
raining down from the apple trees and

this be the Miss Nancy who had gone
into the gallery an hour since, prim,
severe, dignified, to meet Alonzo Bur-
ton, who had been her sweetheart
years and years ago?
No doubt he had forgotten all about
her-boy and girl sweethearts-what
did they matter to a busy man? She
would never let him see that she re-
membered. And even if he had remem-
bered, what a dreadful thing the mem
DRY must be to one who saw her now.
She was what years of hard work had
made her. She would not try to abate

face. She would not even put on a
ribbon or loosen her hair from its I'M
compromising coil. He should see her

In the body there are obscure glands that have puzzled pfysiol-
ogists, because they have no obvious function. Since nature seldom
creates anything useless, these glands have been studied until dis
covery has been made that seemingly it is their office to take in dis
ease germs and make them innocuous. 1t is not the attainment Of
the ideal of democracy if there shall exist one people SO healthy, SO

Uniontown, Pa, May 16.-The
mountain fires are still raging, and
threaten further obstruction of prop

that the flames do not get near the

An Unfortunate Remark

One pleasant day last fall, so the
story goes, Prof. Hadley, of Yale,
was strolling through the beautiful
campus of Dartmouth college with his
wife on his arm. They were admiring
the beautiful buildings which dot the
campus, several of them having been
erected by wealthy alumni. Present.
ly they came to an especially noble
hall, built of stone, and occupying a
commanding site. Over the main en-
trance was a marble tablet which an
nounced that the hall had been erected
by "John C. Blank as a memorial to his
Beloved Wife,"
President Hadley stood and looked
at the noble pile for a moment. Then
he heaved a sigh that was almost en-
vious.
"Ah," he said, shat is what / should
like to do for my college"
And to this day, the boys declare,
President Hadley cannot understand
why his wife should have looked SO
h~orrifed.-St. Louis Mirror.

Pros and Cons Of Immigration
BY EDwARD HOWARD cRICcs.
Author, Lecturer on Social Ethics.

There is a movement among serious thinkers
i'll favor of further restrictions upon immigration.
Let us refuse, say earnest and patriotic men, to
allow our soil longer to be used as a dumping
ground for the refuse of Europe.
Every one of us can sympathize with this po-
sition. 1t is not a relishable task to heal the dis
eases of other nations. Yet that was a splendid
thing for which the American ideal used to stand
a welcome to the down-trodden.

An d Industry.

International trade touches as
many diverse and interesting articles
as an "old curiosity shop" handles.
One of the latest and most curious
items is cat-o'-nine-tails. A Maine
man lately shipped 200 barrels to
London. Last year he sent $50 bar
rels. 1T is odd that there should be
little demand in the United States
for an article which grows so COM
monty here, while in London there is
a constantly widening market. The
downy floss of the head of the cat
tail is used for filling high-priced pill
lows and cushions.

PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.
THE LESSON TEXT.

Be not yourself disobedient to the
heavenly vision. The risen Jesus has
often appealed to you.
Show your obedience to Christ, both
by accepting Him and then by labor
ing for the salvation of others.
If you are His disciple, Christ has
chosen you for special work. Find out
what that work is.
Iron bonds are better than the de-
ceptive liberty of the wicked. Paul
was Christ's free man, though bound.

Good Land in Demand.

A great many sales Of farm land for
vestment are being made in Dick
inson county. One Of the best uses
a man can make Of his cash right at
present is to buy farm with it, and
the sooner the farm is purchased, the
better of it is for the man who puts
up the cash for it.
Land is steadily advancing in price
IN Kansas. Men who know all about
such things say that the price Of
Kansas farm land has not yet reached
the real level at which prices should
stand; that there will be q continual
rise for long time to come yet. All
signs indicate that this view OF the
matter 10 correct.
In December, 1859, Abraham
Lincoln visited Kansas and delivered
speeches at Elwood, Troy, Doniphan,
Atchison and Leavenworth. While
going from one point to another
probably in Doniphan county "old
Abe" said to those who were accom-
panying him:
"Gentlemen, the day will come
when the land we see abont us here
will sell for 800 an acre"
The men in the party. of course
we're pleased to hear this remark; but
coming even from Lincoln, they took
IL with . grain Of salt. Lincoln was
one Of the best friends Of Kansas; and
his hearers felt that his disposition to
show his feeling for the territory and
talk In an encouraging manner was
more at the bottom Of his cheerful
prediction than sober judgment.
But what Lincoln has said has come
true; more than true. A couple oil
weeks ago q 4O-aOre piece Of land In
Brown county, not many miles from
the course taken BY Lincoln In going
from town to town on his Kansas
visit, was sold for sl1s.76 an acre
the high.water mark for farm land 10
Brown county, and perhaps for the
state.
