The Valentine Social at Hawkin-

under the auspices of the Scandi-

success, about $50 being netted from
the entertainment The proceeds
will be donated toward the fund tor
the alleviation of the suffering peo-
pie in the famine stricken districts
of the Scandinavian peninsula. The
ladies desire TO extend their thanks
to the musicians who so kindly as
sisted in the entertainment, as also
to the public for the generous pat

What the 1903 improved bicycle
will be will interest some people.
The new feature of the 1903 bicycles
will be twospeed gear, capable of
being changed from high to low,
and vice verse, with less effort than
is required to operate the coaster
brake. On level surfaces where
high speed and low pedaling are
desirable this arrangement permits
gear of 101, and when a rough road
head wind or a steep grade is en-
countered the high gear may be
instantly changed to one of 76,
which is admirably suited to hill
climbing and other "heavy work."

was the amusing propensity of the

Reform In LANGUAGE Teachjno

The American conquest of Europe
In purely material matters has become
an acknowledged fact. But even in
matter not purely material, American
expansion now progresses with giant
strides. This is particularly evident
in the teaching of languages. The
old European methods are rapidly be-
ing replaced, or al least reformed, by
the Berlitz methods, called in Europe,
on account Of its origin, the American
method. The Berlitz schools. which
have about two dozen branches in this
country, have spread over nearly 200
European cities. President Loubet of
France intrusted the linguistic educa-
ton of his children to this institution,
and the German Emperor displayed
his confidence in the Berlitz school by
placing in its care the French course
at the military school of Potsdam,
while in another Berlitz schoo, the
crown prince perfected himself In
speaking foreign languages.

Queer Abyssinian Currency.

A peculiar coin" is employed for
small charge in Abyssinia. This is no
other than bars of hard crystalized
salt, about 10 inches long and two and
half inches square, tightly tapering
toward the end. People are very par.
ticular about the standard of fineness
of the currency. If it does not ring
like metal when struck with the finger
nail, or If 1t is cracked or Clipped,
they will not take 1t. II Is token Of
affection when friends meet to give
each other lick of their respective
coins" and in this way the value Of
the bar is decreased. Smaller change
than bar Of salt Is sometimes need
ed, and then the natives have re-
curse to cartridges. Three cartridges
pass for one bar of salt.

Science Above Jury Duty.

Col. Wamsley Of Randolph county,
Virginia, was excused from jury
duty, to which he had been drawn
on an original and unique excuse. The
colonel keeps a ground hog and is
testing its reliability as weather
prophet and coming to court In Elk
ins would greatly interfere with his
study of the natural history Of ground
hog. Col, Wamsley claimed that
science, would probably lose more by
breaking into his course Of study than
justice would gain by his Jury serv-
ice and he was accordingly excused
from serving on the jury.
