Advice to Young Men.

Remember my son, you have 10
work. Whether you handle a pick
OF a pen, wheelbarrow or a set of
books. digging bitches or editing Il
paper, ringing an auction bell or
writing funny things. You must
work. If you look around you will
see that the men who are the most
able to live the rest of their days with
out work are men who worked the
hardest Don't be afraid of killing
yourself with work, my son. Men
cannot work so hard as that on the
sunny side of thirty They die some
times but 1t is because they quit
work at p. m and don't get home
until = a. m. 1t IS the interval that
kills. The work gives you an appe-
title for your meals 1t lends solidlty
TO your slumber; 1t gives you an ap-
probation of Il holiday. There are
young men who do not work, my son.
but the world is not proud of them.
The great busy world does not even
know they are there. So find out what
YOU want to be and take off your coat
and make dust in the world. The
buster you are the less deyiltry you
will be apt TO get into. the sweeter
will be your sleep, the brighter and
happier your holidays, and the bet
ter satisfied will the world be with
you.-Robert j. Burdette

Following Your Barber.

"The average journeyman barber,
when he is good one, has quite n
following" said the observant man.
when he leaves one shop and goes to
another. he always takes lot of his
regular customers with him--and the
trouble is they are jumping from one
place to another all the time. They
never seem satisfied. For over ten
years | have been getting shaved by
the same barber, because he seems to
suit me. He has made study of the
intricacies of my WHY growth of
beard. and always knows exactly how
to treat my face. But during those
ten years | have been obliged to fol
low him from shop to shop until | dare
say | have distributed my patronage
over n course of at least twenty five
establishments. only yesterday he
whispered TO me: I'm leaving to-mor-
row. Got job at Blanks shop. Look
me up And | meekly follow on his
trail. rs do lots of other men who be
come accustomed 10 the touch Of one
barber. It's queer thing"

KING OF BELLS.
" Gar kolokol," Which Now Stands In

Gear kolokoi," Which Now Stand. In
the kremlin of Moscow.
In Moscow on granite pedestal
at the foot of the belfry tower of Ivan
the Great, In the Kremlin, stands the
Car Kolokol, the King OF Bells. In
the sixteenth century the art of cast
ing bells was brought TO perfection in
Russia, and Olearius, Secretary TO a
Dutch Embassy TO Moscow in 1896,
asserts that a great bell was cast in
the reign of Boris Godunof During
fire In the reign of Alexis this bell fell
TO the ground and was broken In
1854 1t was recast and weighed 2SS,-
600 pounds. In 1874 1t was suspended
from wooden beam at the foot OF the
tower, from whence II fell on June 10,
1706, during fire. Its fragments lay
on the ground until the reign OF the
Empress Anne, by whose orders 1t was
again recast in 1888 by the bellfounder
Ivan Matorine. Owing to the falling
of some heavy rafters during yet an
other fire in 1877, the bell fell height
OF fifteen feet, buried itself deep in

the ground, and piece was knocked
out Of Its side According to some
accounts, this was owing to an i'm
perfection in the metal caused by jew
els and other treasures having been
thrown into the liquid metal by the
ladies' of Moscow. During the reign
Of Nicholas l., in the year 1889, the
architect of st. Isaac's Cathedral at
81. Petersburg, NJ. de Montferrand,
took upon himself the difficult task of
raising the bell, and completed the
opera ton with much skill. Its weight
at present is 10000 pounds, Its height
from the top of the ball and cross
placed upon 1t by the order of the EN-
peror Nicholas l. Is 26 feet 4 inches,
and its circumference 81 feet II inches.
Its maximum thickness Is 2 feet, and
the weight of the broken piece about
IL tons.

bell now stands, Is named after him

An Oriental stratagem.

Many a man has failed TO guess an
easy riddle because the simple solu-
ton looked like IA trap to him. Y. G.
records an instance in which this
trait of human nature was cleyerly
played upon by Japanese nobleman
The old lord had been forced to flee
with only three hundred men before an
enemy with ten thousand, and barely
had time to reach his castle ahead of
his foes. There were no REINFORCE
ments near at hand, and he knew that
If an attempt was made to storm his
defenses he and his men would be
dead before help could come.
The enemy's forces advanced rapid
ly, and scouts rode up near the castle
to reconnoiter. To their amazement
they found the gates, doors and win
dows open, and all the appearance of
a holiday celebration. They rode has
tily back to inform their master that
the foe was dancing, and that bands
were playing music in the castle.
The powerful enemy was too wise a
man to put his head into any such a
trap as that. The defenders of the
castle must have some plan to slaugh-
ter his forces by wholesale, or they
would never invite him in that way.
He drew back a safe distance, and en-
camped to await developments.
Soon the endorsements for the
castle came up behind, attacked him
suddanIv ond defeofad him whtla tho
garrison which had risked all on its
strategem charged him on the other
side

Apparatus for Washing smoke.

A smoke-washing apparatus is in
successful use in London. 1t is claim
ed that the apparatus does away with
the necessity for chimneys, as it pro.
duces the exact amount of draught re
quired for complete combustion and
deprives the smoke of Its noxious
properties. 1t consists of an electric
ally-driven fan, which draws the
smoke from the fire and passes il
into stream Of water, which ex-
tracts the sulphurous and unconsum-
ed particles 1t works automatically
and only requires that the water in
Its lower part should be changed at
regular intervals.

SUGAR BEET IN CANADA.
Many Thousands of Acres to BE De-
voted to Its Cultivation.

Many Thousands of Acres to BE De-
voted to Its Cultivation.
Canadians are turning their atten-
ton to sugarbeet culture, and accord
ing to the Toronto Star are making a
success Of the venture. In recent
edition of the paper is the following:
A dispatch from Raymond, Alberta,
says: John NJ. Cannon. attorney for
the Alberta Land and Stock Company,
who is here for the purpose of dispos-
ing OF 5000 acres of the companys
tract, Is in excellent humor over the
result of his visit. as already the great
er part of the block his company Is
putting on the market has been dis
posed of, some to new settlers from
Utah, but mostly to farmers of Ma
grath, which town the land adioins
OH the north. Much of this land will
be farmed this year.
Altogether the Alberta Land and
Stock Company has control of 1850
acres, on which 6.000 head of stock
have been run. Mr. Cannon proposes
to set men to work at once on the
breaking of 1000 acres, which will DO
sown with Turkey red wheat this fall.
Another large tract will be broken
and worked up for the cultivation Of
sugar beets. A new steam plowing
outfit has been purchased by the COM
pany and will be started up as soon
as possible on the work.
The cultivation of sugar beets will
be, Mr.. Cannon thinks, the money
making industry here. The soil and
climatic conditions are most favorable.
and the success that attended the in.
dustry last year. wherever the beets
were given the proper attention and
the ground was sufficiently cultivated,
shows that this district cannot be sur
passed for high grade beets.
In answer to Il question as to the
probable immigration into southern
Alberta from Utah this year. Mr.. Can
non said that from careful inquiry and
observation he would judge that last
years total immigration would he
largely surpassed within the next few
months.
The stream of American immigra-
ton TO southern Alberta has again set
in in earnest Every train from Great
Falls brings in Il number of settlers $
and prospectors from Montana. Ore
gon. Utah, Colorado and other West
ern States. Many of those have nj.
ready visited the country and come
now TO settle down Others have been
attracted by friends or relatives who
have been residing here for some time
and intend TO look over the country 10
secure the best land.
On the pulp derived this year from
the manufacture of sugar 1900 sheep
have been fed all winter, and have
come out in excellent condition.

RUSSlA'S CANAL SCHEME,
Mammoth Project to Connect tho
Black Sea with the Baltic.

BLACK sea with the Baltic.
The war with Japan is rousing Rus
sla to the execution of a great public
work long planned and long neglected
that Is, the canal which Is to connect
the Black Sea with the Baltic. At the
present moment the need of such u
canal is obvious. In this one year OF
storm and stress 1t might well be
worth to Russia more than its entire
cost; for with such a waterway open
Russia could snap her fingers at the
prohibition at the Dardanelles. Her
Black Sea fleet could make its exit into
the Baltic, and thus be available for
lying idle in the hour of urgent need.
That Russia did not construct this
canal long ago is doubly strange. first,
because of the many years that the
Dardanelles has been barred against
her warships, and. second, because of
the ease with which 1t can be made.
The total distance from sea to sea Is a
long one. 1,46S miles; but the actual
canal will be only sixty-slx miles long,
the rest of the way being traversed on
the Dneiper and Dwina rivers. These
rivers will have of course, to be deep
ened, locks will have to be constructed
and much other work done. But there
Is no mountain ridge to be crossed, and
no serious engineering problems of any
k.nd appear. The cost is estimated at

DO WE EAT TOO MUCHq
Ncactarians Not Worried Over High
Price of Meat.

Price of Meat.
Many scientific investigators Of The
average diet of civilized people long
ago arrived at the conclusion that most
people eat too heartily. says The New
York Tribune. Professor Chitlenden.
of New Haven. after his extensive tx
perlments in feeding soldiers from tht
regular army On schedules carefully
thought out and regulated, may he

this important everyday subject OF dis
cussion in families. Heads Of house

discover reason for rejoicing. provided
1t is made indsputably plain that peo-
pie are really eating too much. 1t Is
to be hoped that among the men of
leading and of light in this department
of science something like an agreement
of opinion may be obtained.
How far should the cravings of
healthy, lively children who get plenty
of opportunities for playing in the open
air, be gratified? The food of the
British soldiers in South Africa proved
that Il moderate allotment of jam as a
touch Of sweetenng to the rations
eheered the spirits of the soldier and
made him fight harder than if he had
been an absolute stranger to such an
indulgence. In the struggle in the
East the commissariat has not been
oyerbountiful to the rife bearers on
either side. The Japanese soldiers live
chiefly on rice and dried fish. The Rus
sian infantry and cavalry demand n
more liberal diet.
Moderation in eating ought to result
in cutting down the extremely high
prices of meat and fish which are now
current in our principal cities. People
who take only one or two meals each
day-and there are many of them
and the devotees of the exclusive con-
sumption of vegetable food feel GER
tain sentiment of compassion for the
deyourers of big repasts three times
day, and are not greatly worried
over the high prices of heshly luxiries
