Geo. B. Ellis, Secretary of the
| State Board of Agriculture, writes
the REGISTER: cit will doubtless
be of interest to your readers to
know that the schedule of farm
ers' institutes for the coming fall
and winter is now being arranged
by the Secretary of the Board of
Agriculture, and it is hoped that
the people in every locality where
such meetings are desired will
make it, known at an early date.
Provision has been made for
special talent among the lecturers,
and it is the intention Of the board
to hold a very large number of
Institutes during the season. Effort
will be made in every case to send
men especially qualified to speak
on subjects that may be preferred,
and it is hoped that the people will
make their wishes known in this
respect. In view of the great in
terest that is being shown in corn
improvement the board is also de-
sirous of seeing a large number of
corn shows held in connection with
the institutes, and the secretary is
cooperating with the Missouri
Corn Growers Association to this
end. The association will offer
first and second premium ribbons
on white and yellow corn wherever
such shows are arranged, and if
the winners desire the first prize
samples will be entered at the
State corn show, to be held in CO.
lumbia in January, at which valu-
able premiums are to be offered.
An effort will be made by the
board to have present at such

MRS. EDDY FORDIDS GIFTS.
Head of Christian Science Opposes
Christmas Custom.

one of the most sweeping edcts ever
issued by Mrs. Mary Baker G.. Eddy. head
OF the Church of Christ. Scientist, in which
she practically forbade Christian Scientists
all over the world from setting apart
Christmas day as one upon which to give
or receive gifts, has caused a mild Juror
among her followers, who number more
than 100000.
In every one of the 900 churches estao-
lished in various parts of the world new
section to one of the church bylaws was
read to the congregations last Sunday in
which it was explicitly set forth that no
word of thanks or greeting be sent to the
pastor emeritus" as Mrs. Eddy has styled
herself. In message. also, she criticised
the exchange Of presents on Christmas day
as wholly wrong and not in accordance
with tie church teachings.
Ihat Mrs Eddy should deem the matter
of such Importance to add a section to
the bylaws of the church caused a sensa-
ton among her followers. 1t appeared at
nrst peculiar to them that she should is
sue such an order after allowing many
years to go past without making any COM
ment on the worldwide custom: but il
turned out that Mrs. Eddy has been the
recipient year after year OF hundreds of
kilograms, gifts and letters of thanks and
Christmas cheer upon the annual Yuletide
event all Of which annoyed her so that
she decided to put stop 10 1t.
She then decided to issue a ''nessage
which is the manner in which she describes
most OF her orders, in which she would set
forth what she considered the evils OF
present-Eiving in Christmas time
That part Of the edict relating to the
sending of kilograms and messages Of
thanks and good VIII to Mrs. Eddy is
called Section r. to Article XII in the
church bylaws. Article XII is given the
general title Of DUTY to God" The new
section. which was read in all the Chris
tian Science churches last Sunday is IS
follows.
Members of this church who turn their
attention from the Divine Principle of being
to personality, sending gifts, congratulatory
dispatches or letters to the pastor emeritus
on Thanksgiving, Christmas. New Year or
Easter break rule of this church and are
amenabe therefor"
8 will be noticed. Mrs. Eddy has also
included three other holidays days of
Thanksgiving in her order. The order,
however, issued especially for Christ
mas, and nothing of the kind was received
from her on Thanksgiving day.

MAINE BLACK BEAR.
He Is the Wisest of Animals and HIS
Habits Are Almost Human.

Rsngor Mel Cor. New York Sun.
Rear hunting has become fashionable IN
Maine OF late-that IS. among V.sitlhg
sportsmen. The natives used to hunt pears
inaustriously, for, beside what the petit
would bring, there was bounty OF % on
every bear killed. The bounty was re-
pealed except for oxford and Franklin
counties and since then Bruin has been
safe from native hunters and trappers, his
only active enemies being the farmers
whose sheep he may steal.
Up to the first week in November twenty
seven bears were brought to Bangor by
nonresident sportsmen, and probably one
hundred will be killed in the Penobscot and
Moosehead regions before the deer season
closes on December 10.
The Maine black bear seems to be mix
ture of several wild animals. with some
thing of human nature sandwiched In

cheese There is also no question about
their fondness for mutton. but old hunters
say that this taste Is acquired, and that the
bears will only go into fold at first when
induced by great hunger.
Favortte foods are small insects, such as
ants. grubs, etc. which are to be found IN
decayed stumps of dead logs. The bear
will pull to pieces every old piece of wood
he comes across In the forest, and poking
into the center, will let the insects run over
his nose and lips, licking them In with his
long tongue when they have. gathered In
sufficient numbers. He will continue to
tear at the stump until he has satisfied
himself that he has secured practically
every one.
A peculiar indication of the presence OF
bears In section is what is known as the
bear tree" Some tall trunk in the forest
Is selected as offering proper facilities for
a rub and sharpening the claws and the
bark Is scratched to the depth of an inch
or two as far up as can be reached Then
every bear that comes along will scratch
himself and sharpen hts claws against that
same tree, each apparently endeavoring to
reach higher up than his predecessor.
