water, as hot as the hand can bear.
After washing the stockings in this
lather rinse i'll cold water, with, if The

very necessary to wiring as much water
out as possible. and then wiring again
in dry towel. Dry Immediately be-

up, not laid over anything. On no ac-

nor, if the article be colOred must it
be allowed to lie about in folds before
drying, for by doing so it Will stain
itself.

BOYS on the Farm

1t has Ion. been Il problem that has
been widely discussed. How can the
boys be kept OH the farms?" In the
Progressive Farmer DR.. Freeman
gives some very good advice as fol-
lows:
wish to say worl about the boys
on the farm. for from my cwn exper-
fence I think it far-reaching and of
much Importance.
When | was a boy m. father did
many things which I thought | could
have suggested some improvement.
This [ think is general with boys on
the farm, and they feel like they have
been ignored when not consulted about
the work they are doing.
| think it worth the fathers while
to talk to the boys about the work in
which they are engaged. Get the boys
IDEAS about the work, ask them how
they think sucn work should be done
to the best advantage and talk it over
with them, nd when it is possible
take the suggestions of the boys and
show them that you have regard for
their opinions. This is one very good
way to get them interested IL the work
and make them feel and realize their
worth to the place.
Always explain to the Jo.s why YOU
do things, and why you think your
way is the best, and Away consit.er
their suggestions and give your rea-
for nd
think best not to do so. All this goes
a long way toward satisfying and
contenting he boys as they go about
their work.
Don't fail to introduce the boys to
all Corners high OF low. Do this IN a
very polite manner just as if all were
strangers and all were on a visit 10
your house
Nothing makes a boy feel better
than whel-, in a very polite manner,
YOU introduce them to your visitor out
in the field where he is at work A
word Of COMMUNICATION in the boys
hearing does much good.
To fail on any occasion to introduce
the members of the family, from The
smallest up, TO all visitors. makes it
very unpleasant Often-time to the
family and also to the visitor. When
| go into home and the main of the
home fails tO introduce me to his wife
and others of the family as they stand
about. | feel badly and generally
pressed to ask who he is, and thus
try to make it as pleasant for myself
and the family as possible.
Give the boys an interest in the farm
so they will get some money out of it
each year as their own. A young fell
low feels badly without cent in his
pocket when on Saturday evenings he
goes sporting his best girl.
Help the boys and girls in all their
trials and little troubles and suggest
the best ways for them 10 succeed and
you will make light and jolly many
heavy hearts.

A sIsTERHooD OF WOMEN.

not so severe as it seems; many men
would be apt to admit it. 1t is really
only saying in another form what

"Our outlook for basketball isn't very

tain of the senior basketball team OF
well known womans college, as she
held in her hands a number of resig-
nations from girls who last year were
enthusiastic players.

this year because she's going to get
married. OF course, can forgive her,
but just listen to the excuses the others
offer: .--..y=.-E '-- *"~
cone girl writes that she can't play
this year because the game makes her
hands large, and her father objects to
that. Another says she can't play be-
cause she always loses her temper

SOME FAMOUS RFTRFATs.

In the light Of the more recent revel-
ations that have reached us from
Manchuria without official editing. our
military experts now believe that
Kuropatkin fought the last days bat
tie OF Lao Yang against odds of 10 TO
l. and that this withdrawal was a
masterpiece Of strategy. 1t now seems
evident that the bulk Of his army was
Wen upon the way to Mukden before
ne showed a sign of yielding, and that
the Japanese were held for. at least
q hours by the Russian rearguard. In
support Of this hypothesis, they point
TO the fact that Kuropatzin left behind
him no spoils Of war; that every i'm
portant bit of army property had been
removed; that the japanese, after their
heroic efforts, marched into a dis
mantied stronghold, which had been
swept clean of all material of conse-
quenoe.
Old eampaigners are reminded of
Beaureguard's evacuation of Corinth,
Miss, in the spring of 1862. It was
some time after the bloody battle of
Shiloh, to be sure, but as much a part
OF 1t as Kuropatkin's retrograde move
ment upon Mukden is a part Of the
tremendous affair Of Lao Yang. Beau

the Union troops were ready for the

The Hamburg-American Steamship

most interesting about this new Anak

THE Japanese, who have the admira-
ton of the entire world to-day, do not
deceive themselves concerning this vital
i feature of national development. Pro-
fessor John Perry, former president of
1.-THE British Institute of Electrical En-
igineers, who is visiting this country af-
ter a service Of four years in the Uni
versity Of Toxic, attributes the advance
of Japan among the nations largely to
tits system Of education. He says:
/ st have heard the remark that Jap
lanese officials have been making over
here in America, at banquets and else
where that Japan is the Intellectual
Ichild of America. Nothing could be
further from the truth. Japan is about
a thousand years in advance of Eng
Hand, and, I fear, of America, too. 1t is
la question whether we will ever catch
lup with her. .,
In the first place, the Japanese are
mot imitators. They are originators,
strikingly prone to original investiga-
ton. You must remember that their
civilization began long before ours did.

The Russian naval authorities are
said to be continuing their experiments
with submarine torpedo boats OF
American make. The Russian Navy
had none Of these craft when the war
began, and Japan was also without
them By recourse TO them now Rus
sian sailors will receive valuable train
ing in a branch Of their trade which
has long commanded attention IN
France and more lately excited prae-
teal interest here and in England. But
it is difficult to believe that Russia
hopes to make such submarines as she
may conclude to. purchase or build Of
any service to her in the East As
time goes on evidence Increases that
the much-talked-of Baltic fleet will not
attempt the voyage to Port Arthur or
Vladisvostolx, and it is scarcely likely
that submarines would be sent to Man
churian waters in any other way than
by war ship. If they were sent over
the Siberian Railroad the only point
at which they could be launched with
out fear of capture by the Japanese
would be Vladivostok, where their
remoteness from the scene Of fighting
would render them of doubtful value.
They could not proceed down the coast
to the Korean gulf without the assist
ance Of cruisers, and of the latter Rus
STA has but two, at Vladivostock, and
they were so badly battered in the
fight with Admiral Kamimura's squad
ron off Tushima Island that it is doubt
full if they ever put to sea again. Could
submarines be dropped into the waters
of Port Arthur's harbor they might do
remarkable execution upon the Japan
ese ships outside that harbor. But as
there is no chance of submarines reach
ing Port Arthur while the war con-
tinues to progress fayorably for Japan,
we may consider that the Russian ex-
periments with them in the Baltic have
, no particular significance. This is the
first great naval war fought since the
submarine was invented. but it will
! end without proving anything for or
against this type Of boat.-Brooklyn

Turkey was formerly resident of
this country, leaving for the East seven
years ago, and he has remained there
ever since.
The people of turkey are classified as
three classes--the wealthy, the people
of ordinary means and the poor The
wages which the poor are paid range
from 20 to rs cents a day. Some Of the
girls who work in the silk manufac-
tories are paid as low as five aud seven
cents for a hard days work. The ma
jority of the inhabitants of Turkey, by
the way, are employed in the manu-
facture of silk Farming is carried on
very little, which is due too the small
profits which it brings to the scarless
city OF machinery. There are many
wealthy people in Turkey, some of
whom are said to be worth $2,0OO,0O0,
and they spend freely.
Beirut IS the largest and most civil
lized city in Turkey. Almost every
nation on the globe is represented in
the schools which have been established
there. The largest school in Beirut has
been foundered and is conducted by the
