NEW YoRK'S CHILD FARMERS
Hundred and Twenty-Five Youth
full Reubens Cared For-Plots
During Summer Of 1908.

One hundred and twenty-five farmers
cared for their plots during the first
season, but in the following spring, SO
many requests for "farms" were re-
ceived that the park authorities de-
cided to enlarge the space allotted, so
that nearly 300 boy. and girl farmers,
varying in age from eight to 10 years,
were happily employed during the sec
ond summer-that of 1903, says writer
in Review of Reviews. Through the
long, hot days of July and August you
might see them watering, wedding,
hoeing or quietly sitting around the
central flower plot listening to a nature
study talk by the attendant teacher.
improvements upon the surrounding
land followed rapidly in the wake of
those upon the farm. Toward the east
the park department had placed a huge
open-air gymnasium and playground
Toward the west tiny country seat,
with a 12x18 foot farmhouse, a green
lawn and flower beds, a pavilion, a
pig pen and chicken house had been
added to the farm property. Still far
Their west stood sand tent, and Sec
ond canvas formed resting place for
tired mothers. A typical afternoon
might have shown 80 or 100 children
busy in the garden; in the pavilion. a
sewing class and group weaving bas-
kets for farm produce; in the tiny
house tea being served by neatly apron
ed housekeepers. while on the lawn the
boys played croquet

erwise might have destroyed Japan
csc warship, and how school of whales,
has taken on the semblance of a fleet or
japanese torpedo boats, and terrified the
inhabitants of Askold island Decidedly
the port commander of Vladivostok
should take every measure to hunt all
whales from the coast waters. The pres
ence of a casual party of whales on the
coast leaves the Japanese free to direct
the northern mosquito feet upon other
fortified points. Conversely, by prop
er concentration of whales upon the
channel all the Russian mines might be
exploded, with no harm except to the
cetecean monsters. Yet before quip is
launched at the afrighted citizens OF
Vladivostok, it behooves Americans to
recall the frequency with which phantom
fleets were sighted of all our watering
places in the early summer of 1898, says
the New York Post Had our shores at
that critical time been beset with whales
We possibly might have given no better
account of ourselves than the Askold
islanders.

u rather small person went forth one day
And walked with his head in the air
Cnheeding the flowers that bloomed in his
way
He walked with his head in the air.
Perhaps he was one of the sensible let
Who say the spring poets are all tommy
rot.
And who didn't like fowers-some people
do not
So he walked with his head in the air.
Avoiding the lowlier friends he might find,
He walked with his head in the air.
With some possible prince for a patron in
He walked with his head in the air,
And seemed to look down on the neighbour

And proclaim that no off hand address was

Just the chum for prince who was prop
erly proud.

A prince came along. and our friend felt
thrill,
AS he walked with his head in the air.
And said: "Will he see me? I'm sure that
he will
If walk with my head in the air.
But the prince met some jockeys, a dancer
or two,
And all sorts of people got into his crew,
And the one of the few that the prince
never knew
Was the man with his head in the air.

MARKING HOUSEHOLD LINEN
Some Particulars Which May Be New
and Of Value to Many
Housekeepers.

The monogram is the most elegant
form for marking linen, but the sim
pie initial is perfectly correct. The
same initial or monogram should be
used on all household linen, only varied
in size according to the sizes of the ar
ticles to be marked, says the Indianap-
oils Journal. Fashion has set her seal
of approval upon French laid embroid-
cry in pure white mercerized cotton or
linen, SO, to be fashionable, this must
be used. The letters on sheets, pillow
cases and table cloths are usually three
inches in height; for towels and dinner
napkins two or two and one-half inches
high and one or one and one-half inches
high for small luncheon and breakfast
napkins. Perforated patterns for mark
ing can usually be found at fancy work
shops, which will enable the worker to
stamp her own linen accurately, which
is essential to good embroidery work.
The size of the thread must be governed
by the quality Of the material to which
it is to be applied, but one rule obtains,
namely that it is better to use thread
little fine than too coarse, for the
latter is sure to look humpish on a fine
ground even though skillfully handled.
Always stretch the stamped linen in an
embroidery hoop before beginning work.
Sheets are stamped exactly in the middle
Of the top end, about two or three inches
from the hem, with the top Of the letter
toward the middle of the sheet, so that
the letter reads correctly when the
sheet is turned back. Pillow cases are
also marked in the same manner, with
letters two inches above the hem. the
lower end of letters nearest the hem.
The letters on towels should be in the
same relative position, except when the
end is ornamented with drawn work;
then, of course, the embroidery should
be above it, regardless of measurements.
Pillow shams are marked directly in
the center. On tablecloths place the
letters, top upwards. either bias CT
straight with the corner and eight inch
es from the edge; On napkins in the sane
way, with letters two and one-half incn-
es from the edge.

mortem services for many of these un-
fortunates, have seen woman who
did not go to her death as we'll dressed
as her circumstances would allow. The
published reports Of these tragedies
confirm my observation. Read in the
papers the account of suicide, and
nine times out of ten it will wind up
by saying the woman was we'll
dressed or at the least, her clothing
was neat and clean
UNLESS these women belong to the
dregs they are found dressed in the
silk skirt and silk waist, which have
become the inevitable garb OF the sui
eide of moderate means. At the last
the true feminine instinct seems to
assert itself, and, although the woman
will not be here to read the account Of
the tragedy, she wants to die in the
blessed satisfaction that she will be
written up as a well-dressed member
Of society"

HENS NEST IN TREE TOP
Feathered Female Possessed Of Lofty
Ideas Uses Them to Good
Advantage.

David. Probart, of New Hampton,
orange county, N. Y, has hen which
is the proudest and at the same time
the possessor of the most lofty ideas
of any feathered female in the coun-
try.
Being possessed of the idea Of "set-
ting" the hen attempted 1t in various
places about the farm, but was driven
from pillar to post, until she finally
took refuge in the topmost branches
of q big tree in the yard
In a nest in these branches she laid
her eggs, and has been sitting on them
for several days. Hawks that have at.
tackled her have been taught to keep
their distance, and there is every prob
ability her chickens will be Matched on
the tree top.
There is much speculation as to
whether the chicks will be wild and
able to lily like birds.

JAPs ORDERLY DURING WAR
Mayors Of Principal Cities in Island
Declare Normal Conditions Are
Prevailing There. z

A cablegram has been received by the
Japanese minister from Toxic to the eff
feet that the mayors of the principal cit
les of japan have been receiving for
some time past letters from all parts
Of the world inquiring as to the condi-
ton of affairs in Japan. These letters
usually come from prospective travellers
who desire to know whether or not it is
safe to visit the country. In response
the mayors have issued the following
statement:
"1n answer to inquiries too numerous
to be individually responded to, and in the
hope of correcting erroneous impress
sions that may possibly exist abroad,
we, the mayors of the principal cities
OF Japan, beg to give assurance that
normal conditions prevail throughout
the empire. Japan in war is as orderly
as Japan in peace. Business men and
travellers who. contemplate journeying
to Japan will encounter no inconveni-
ence and will be exposed to no danger
The ordinary means of communication
by land and sea are not and will not be
interrupted. Japan and its territorial
waters are not within the zone of hostii-
tiles, and the position and the advantages
of our feetsand armies insure the empire
against INVASION"

Train Up the Parents.

The child's salvation must be won
from within out and not from without
in. Ali the laws and restrictions in the
world cannot make a good man or
woman out of the individual that is de-
termined to seek the disreputable and
the vile. What must save the boy or
the girl is the principle instilled from
earliest years by faithful love and au-
thority, line upon line. precept upon

MODERN WAR NOT DEADLY.
Official Figures Show That a Very
Small Percentage Of the
Wounded Die.

# armies were now to fight in such
close order and at such close quarters
as they used to do. in ancient times,
the slaughter would unquestionably ex-
coed anything of which history gives
record. But in direct proportion as the
rapidity of fire and range Of guns are
increased, the distance between con-
tending armies is increased. When
guns are made to shoot further and
with greater accuracy and rapidity,
those against whom their fire Is di-
rected are removed so far out of range
that it is the rare exception, not the
rule, that shot finds human target.
1t is estimated that not one in a thou
sand of the rifle balls fired in a mod
ern battle hits anybody. and when
there is a hit, the chances Of the
wound being fatal are not more than
one in five, for the vital area of q man
when presented as target to rifle
ball is not more than 20 per cent. of
the total area exposed, so that out
of 100 hits so are in non-vital parts.
Official figures show that a very
small percentage Of the wounded die
in modern warfare, says Woman's
Home Companion. According to re-
cent statistics, more than IS per cent
of the wounded recover, and about
one-third of the deaths from wounds
occur before relief reaches the suffer-
ers on the field. OF course, If it were
not for the valuable service of the am
bulance corps, Red Cross societies and
the wonderful skill at present-day sur
geons the loss OF life would be far
greater.
