Must Meet the Conditions.

If there be any spo; on the earth
where the amenities of life should
be freely and unrcstrictcdly cx-
changed. it is the home. Courtesy
should be the rule and not the cx-
ccption in The family circle. = 1t
prevents iarring. it djsSipates mood
iness. it heals wounds. il ennoblcs
human nature. 1t is truly wonder
ful in its soothing and subduing in
huenccs. 1t is contagious and cx-
tends to the entire household. The
children Of the family will proudly
emulate the courteous d"mcanor Of
the father, and will initiate the
mother in gcntloncSa and patience.
1t seems strange tlat man will
spcal; moro rudcly 10 his wife than
tc the other lazy. or that a broth
cr will be harsh to his sister. while
to her lady friend he is everything
that Is polite, gcntlemanly and re-
spcctful; a perfect gentleman to
every one save those whom he ought
TO love. cherish and treat with the
utmost courtesy and consideration.
Ii is sad but incontraycrtiblc truth
that many women are indebted for
most Of the pa!itenoss and couTtc-
sizes shown to them by these who arc
not members Of their family. while
the very opposite should be the rule.
Family ties were designed to make
Us sociable. We arc not grcSarious.
We are not made to live clone. Each
member of a family should cndcav-
or to contribute something to the
comfort and welfare of the other
members. II we want to live
healthy and vigorous life We must
have a group of lives to afford com
fort, encouragement. and support.
Courtesy is mighty in its influence
to glorify the home, yet many faith
crs and mothers neglect to practice
or inculcate this almost invaluable
panacca for the moodincss and
boorishness which is the usual re-
suit Of such failure. The home life
should afford pleasure. enjoyment
and courtesy. Politncss and genial
itv are prime factors to that dcSir-
able end. Life is made up Of NOM
ents, and the succession Of well
spent moments make up a well
spent life. Then let Us Ne courteous

How Hooker Was Nicknamed.

General Hookcr's sobriquet of
Fighting Joet Hooker is said
by Sidney V. Lowell. OF Brook
lyn, in the Utica Globe, to have
originated as follows: Il was
reading proof on the New York
Courier and Enquirer, and had
been at work from 7 o'clock in
the evening until 3 o'clock in the
following morning. Mcclellan
had come into contact with the
Confederate forces and was press
ing them back toward Richmond.
Our press dispatches from the
front, written with carbon on
manifold sheets OF tissue paper,
told Of desperate fighting all
along McClcllan's line. Among
his corps commanders was Gen
eral Hooker. whose command had
been perhaps too greatly engag-
ed. Just then the last page from
the front, giving further particu-
lars of the fighting in which
Hoolicr's COPS was desperately
engaged, arr. ed, and across the
top OF the dispatch was written,
'Fighting--Joc Hooker | knew
that this line meant that the mat
ter should be added to what had
gone before, but the compositor
who put it in type knew nothing
about the preceding matter; con-
seQuently, he set the phrase as
a headline, Fighting Joe Hooker
Concluding that it made good
headline, let it go. | realized
that ii few other prooireaders
treated the phrase as | did Hook

Are Next to Niagara.

Though practically unknown to
the world AT large, the falls Of
lguazu stand second only to Nj
agara. The lguazu river forms
the boundary between Argentina
and Erazil. Twelve miles above
its junction with the Panama the
river bed bends almost at right
angles. .I,hc main volume of the
water, moving with great velocity
round the inner, or Brazilian
bank, rushcs into long, narrow
gorge, at one point in which the
waters make a clear leap of 2Io
feet. This gorge does not inter
cept the whole volume of the riv-
cr water, and the surplus currents
rush out past it into the wide el-
bow formed by the bend, descend
ing i'll two leaps OF 100 feet each
in the horseshoe called the Argen-
tine falls. The distance from
where the waters enter the Bra
lillian pit to their last cascade on
the Argentine side is 5000 feet.

Harrie's Autobiography.

James NJ. Barrie, the novelist,
has no patience with reporters
who try to pry into his private
affairs. On one occasion he was
asked to pen short autoblog-
raphy. AT first he refused, and
then, when the reporter began TO
coax him, he stopped him, took
up his pen, and wrote as fol-
lows: "On arrival in London it
was Mr.. Barrie's first object to
make collection of choice ci-
gars. Though the author OF My
Lady Nicotine does not himself
smoke, his pet grocer's message
boy does. Mr.. Barrie's pet ami

Texans Are Just Like The Fest.

A noble act Of generosity by R.
r. Baker has come to the News.
On circus day a man living Il few
miles from town came to the city
with his wife and five children to
see the circus. He had no money
with him to buy tickets. but he
had stove which he brought along
in the hope that he could sell it
for enough to secure admittancc for
his family. He took it to Mr.. Rak-
cr'S and offered i; for sale. giving
him his reason for wanting to sell
it. Mr.. Baker looked at the children
and wife and saw the look of eX-
pectancy on their faces. and made
up his mind to make those poor lit
tie children happy. He told the
man that he could not think Of buy
ing his stove under such circum-
stances, but asked him to accept
free of charge tickets to the great
show, which they were so anxious to
see. The proposition was ioyfully
accepted and the tickets were forth
coming. ii was a decd that makes

How a Girl Educated Herself.

The name of Rosa Weiss ought
to be dear to every ambitious Am
erican girl. Not content with the
ordinary education which she re-
ceived, she was anxious to get a
college education, and one day
spoke to her brother about it. He
told her he could not afford to pay
the fees, but, taking a nickel out
of his pocket he jestingly said:
GO on that" Even a jest some
times serve as an incentive, and
the girl took her brother at his
word. She took the nickel and
went out and bought yard OF
calico. With it she made sun
bonnet, which she sold for quar-
ter The quarter she invested in
more calico and more sunbonnets.
Then she sold them to buy, still
more calico for still more sunbon-
nets. She also made aprons. In
this way she soon had little pile
OF dollars at her command. Her
brother was SO pleased that he
gave her some land on which with
the assistance Of little boy, she
cultivated potatoes. In the first
year out of that little patch she
made $40, and as she got on she
was able to pay her expenses at
college, by her exertions, and she
entered the medical college at Bal
timore, where she paid for her
tuition by nursing, and today is
a lady physician with an excellent
practice.

they brough in a verdict Of guilty.
and the man was fined $50. He was
sent TO Jail where he wcpt bitterly
ever the affair.
Mr.. Barron brought the rooster
home. The rooster brought home

glish member OF the commission.
1t seems to have been expected
in the Dominion that the Eng
lish commissioner would ncces-
sarily side with the two Canadi-
ans, thus ending the arbitration
in a tie, and leaving open, even
aggravated, a dangerous intcrna-
tional dispute. Canada's claim to
a part OF the Alaskan coast was
first heard OF few years ago and
excited universal surprise, ior the
text OF treaties and old maps, in
cluding English maps, had never
been questioned before the dis
covery Of gold in Northwest Can
adam territory. Citizens OF the
United States, though studious OF
all the evidence in the case, have
never been able to discover any
thing to warrant the mysterious
claim.
The English member OF the
commission saw nothing to sub
stantia,c the Canadian preten-
sion. Had there been a-grain OF
evidence that it was ever intend
cd the Dominion should have a
seaport on the Alaskan coast he
would have contcndcd for it to the
last. But he could find on reason
to doubt that the old maps and
understanding of treaties, long ac-
ceptel by England itself, are
strictly corrccI. His vote acknowl-
edging the rishtiulncss ot that
position was conscicntic lis. More
over, it has disposed Of a contro-
versy that might easily have led
to grave trouble. The Canadi-
ians, or at least those who are
airing their eXasperation, blame
England for not obstinatcly back
ing them up in a bad cause. If
Canada. single-handcd. should at
tempt to juggle with the bounda-
ries OF this country, it would rem
der itself ridiculous; and il it had
pressed a false claim, with Eng
lish assistance, il would have been
crushed in the struggle, if one
had cnsucd. These are things
Canada should sobcrly keep in
mind while harping on the out
come of its vamped-up claim. I'm
less it stops such tricks it will
be taught better by disciplinary
methods.

Where they Tunnel for Water.

The citizens OF the town of
Sweet, Canyon county, ID, have
adopted a novel method OF obtain
ing water supply for domestic
and irrigating purposes. The wa
ter is dug out of the hillside, with
wells like tunnels, and not down
into the earth as ordinary wells
are dug. Just back OF, or, rather,
on the cast side OF the town is a
bluff and high land above. Out
Of the bluff clear, sparkling noun
tain water can be procured al
most anywhere by merely running
a tunnel in from twenty to forty
feet. At one point in the town a
stream sufficient to irrigate a fine
orchard and garden, besides an
ample supply for domestic use,
and for watering all the teams
that pass that way, comes pour
ing ont Of the forty-foot tunnel,
Neither the spring frcshets nor
the summer Grouths affect its
flow. In summer time its waters
are cool and refreshing in winter,
warm, and no teeth chattcring is
the result OF sip from this spark
ling rivulet.
