1t is strange how teachers forget

Yet 1t may not be strange, after all,
for among large number of in

very fond of him, but there was al
ways a roguish twinkle in her eye.
Finally when he popped the question
she looked at him archly and said:

BY recent ruling of the postoifice
department each rural mail carrier
in the United States will be required
to take careful census of his route
and copy the names in book provided
for that purpose. Slips are prepared
for the carriers and these will be left
with the families to be filled out, each
slip to contain the names of parties re-
ceiving mail at the house, even to the
servants. In this manner the name Of
every person along the routes will be
before the postmaster, and he will
have no trouble forwarding the mail.
Married women will be designated
by their own name instead of those
of their husbands. There has been
long dispute over the question as to
which is the better form for woman
to sign her husbands first name or her
own, and now the matter has been
settled by postal authorities.

Don't be afraid of little fun at
home, good people. Don't Shut up
your houses lest the sun fade your
carpets, and your heart lest laugh
should shake down some of the musty
cobwebs there. If you want to ruin
your sons, let them think that all
mirth and social enjoyment must be
left on the threshold when they come
home at night. When once home is
regarded as only place to eat, to
drink and to sleep, the work is begun
that ends in gambling houses and deg
radiation. Young people must have
fun and relaxation somewhere. II
they do not find it at their own
hearthstones it will be sought in
Others, perhaps less profitable places.
Therefore let the fire burn brightly
at home, ever delightful with all
those little arts that parents so art
fully understand. Don't repress the
buoyant spirits of merriment around
the lamp and freight of home that
blot out the remembrance of many a
care and annoyance during the day;
and the best safeguard they can take
with them into the world is the I'M
seen influence of a bright ana domes-
tic sanctum-One who was once a
| hoy.

The Congressional Record of Nov.
18th. the day on which the agitation
of the Smoot question was started,
shows that no less than 400 petitions
were presented asking that an in
vestigation be made Of the charges
against Hon. Reed Smoot. These
petitions were from different
churches, Presbyteries, Temperance
Unions, Labor Unions. Clubs OF all
kinds and Societies without number
These petitions were signed by not
less than 100000 people-and this is
not a beginning. The petitions were
referred to the Committee on Privi-
leges and Elections and of course will
never be heard of again. They mere
ly represent a sentiment, and show
how strong that sentiment is. If 400
were presented in one day, there will
hardly be less than 10000 presented
ere the matter ends.

Babies or Do as.

No one with the proper sensibilties
can help liking for some form of
dog. 1t is equally true that duly or.
ganized mind has always a fondness
for some kind of child. 1t is not the
fair thing to care so much more for
the dog than for the child as to sub
ject the human to the assault of the
canine creature, either deliberately or
from indifference to the luck Of the
baby in escaping the contact without
loss of life.

Enaland's Iron Imports.

The large imports Of iron ore into
England-about one-third Of the total
amount consumed-is not due to any
fear OF the exhaustion of the supply
In Great Britain. but to a desire to
save the nonphosphorous iron used in
the acid process. There is a large, al
most unlimited supply Of iron. con-
tanning phosphorus in Scotland and
In the Cleveland and Staffordshire
mines. The imported ore is largely
from Bilboa, Spain.

For some time past doctors in
France have been warning the public
against the dangers Of the latest craze
opium smoking. The habit has been
introduced by officers and others
home from lndo-China, and gradually
extended to society at Marseilles and
Toulon. After being adopted in other
seaports, the mania has now reached
Paris, where it is reported TO have
widely spread.

Young man, said the old gentleman
who had lived long and well, did you
ever put your arms around your dear
old mother who has loved and cared
for you and tell her that you love her
and are grateful for the tears she has
shed and the prayers she has offered
for you? She may think that you love
her without you assuring her that
you do, but it costs you but little
effort to tell her and your words may
bring more JOY and sunshine TO her
heart than you ever dreamed of.
Some young men will pay two dollars
for livery rig to ride three hours
with seventy-five cent girl and tell
all the nice things they can think of
that are true, and more that are not
true, and don't spend five cents or
five minutes in the year to show their
old mother that they care anything
for her
