PREPARES FOR COLLEGE

Perhaps the chief glory Of the
high school is the preparation it
giEes for, and the inspiration il
furnishes to university education.
During the four years Of the high
school, the pupils are introduced to
the great gorId Of scientific facts,
philosophic thought, and historic
development, as we'll as learning the
mysteries Of higher mathematics.
investigation and logical deductions.
The men and women who viii 10
prominent in the affairs of the
nation in few years are now In the
high schools Of the land. But those
who are to be leaders Of coming gene
rations must also have the instruc-
tion and training which the college
and university give.
NATIONAL GREATNESS.
America viii always demand
persons Of energy, honesty and kind
beartedness. And the men and
women Of the future must know how
to be positive, without being narrow;
how to be frank without being rude.
and how to do things both accurately
and also gracefully.
To be big is a good thing ia
national life, provided that there be
not aWkwardenss. And while We
boast Of cur greatness, let us see to
ii that we lack not in goodness also.
With the instruction of the intellect,
there should be the training Of the
moral character. And what We desire
for the nation at large, must first be
wrought out 10 individual character.
National greatness results from the
individual greatness Of the citizen
ship. Our foTefathers we're
thoroughly educated ia the hardships
of life. But they also laid broad
and deep the foundations Of popular
education. The high school serves
as connecting link in the great plan
of education. which may be called
peculiarly American. Upon school
boards and teachers 10 our high
schools, is the responsibility Of
making the citizenship Of the future.
Let these architects of the future
Of our nation have our enthusiastic
support as they guide the unfolding
consciousness OF youth. "

Borrowed Analo.saxon Words.

Besides bridegroom" Anglo-Saxons
owe the word twelve and their
method OF reckoning in dozens instead
of tens to Norway. The people of
Norway and Iceland had a way of
reckoning. which made ten equal
twelve by the addition of the word
"tolfraed," whence the English word
corresponding to the Swedish
"dusin," when the word dozen. The
tolfraedic ten meant twelve, the toll
fraedic hundred meant hundred and
twenty, and SO on. This probably also
explains the medieval method Of

For Lovers Of the Weed.

Those who are rational smokers will
never indulge on an empty stomach; {;
many seem able to do so with impuni-

keep the pipe well cleansed and use
only pure tobacco. Whether smok-
ing a pipe, cigar or cigarette they
will abstain from using it to the last
extremity, because 1t Is the accumu-
lated products of combustion which

ANrs rHAr GROW MUSHROOMS
Insects Make Excellent Gardeners lr
South America.

Prof. ]. r. Ainsworth Davis gives
latest proofs of the ants right to ou,
applause, says the Philadelphia Rec
ord. He says: In tropical America
the traveller in their native region oft
en- sees thousands OF ants marching in
column of route, each holding in its
powerful jaws piece of green lea
about the size of q siXpence. These
they take to their nests. The material
is used as an elaborate sort of mush
room culture, requiring much more
skill and intelligence than that ir
which human beings engage. The
mushroom grower sets spawn in the
beds he prepares, but the ant does moi
need to do this. The desired spawn
soon makes its appearance in the
chewed leaf. But in its natural state
it is inedible and must undergo care
full treatment before it yields the
mushroom which the ant desires. The
necessary work is done by a special
caste of gardener ants. These weed
out the obnoxious germs, ETC., and,
pruning off the tips of the threads,
preventing them from growing into
the air and producing useless toad
stools. AS a result of this the threads
swell into innumerable little rounded
white chickering's, each of which is
about one-fiftieth of an inch across.
1t is these which are the mushrooms

sole food of the ant-or, at any rate
the chief food.

Persian a Difficult language.

OF the difficulties of the language
of Persia a traveller writes: The
words one uses in a letter are almost
entirely different frc:n those used con-
versationally, and those in an ordinary
prose history are again different. Then
it is almost impossible to distinguish
the lenses; and lastly the adjective
is generally indistinguishable from the
substantive, and the link between an
adjective and the term which it quail
fies is the same as the sign of the
possessive. For instance, the text.
This is My beloved Son. may be read
in the Persian Bible. This is the Son
of My beloved without the slightest
violence to the grammar.

the penny that named the city Of Port

depended the question whether the
Willamette metropolis should be
known as Portland or Boston. Twice
the coin turned tails" and the town
was named after Portland, Maine, the
former home of Mr.. Pettygrove's

A. L. Lovejoy of Massachusetts, a

Pettygrove wanted to name 1t Port,

to toss penny, heads to mean Boston,
tails to mean Portland, the best two in
three to be the choice. Pettygrove
Won the first toss; Lovejoy won the
second, and the third proved to be
tails, and Portland it was.
The younger Pettygrove still has the
identical penny, and would not take
any amount of money for it. His father
kept it for pocket piece, and it has
been handed down to the son, who
bears his fathers name. 1t is dated

tells Of his coffee experience:
my wife and l used coffee regular.
ly for breakfast, frequently for dinner
and occasionally for supper-always
the very best quality-package coffee
never could find a place on our table.
in the spring Of 1896 my wife was
taken with violent vomiting which we
had great difficulty in stopping.
1T seemed to come from coffee
drinking but we could not decide.
"In the following July, however.
she was attacked a second time by
the vomiting. I was away from home
filling an appointment, at the time.
and on my return l found her very
low; she had literally vomited herself
almost to death, and 1t took some days
to quiet the trouble and restore her
stomach.
IL had also experienced the same
trouble, but not SO violently. and had
relieved 1t, each time, by a resort to
medicine.
But my wife's second attack salts.

the bottom of our troubles. and SO we
stopped 1t forthwith and took on

WELDING COPPER.
It is a Matter of Personal Skill and
Cannot Be 1auuht.

Cannot Be Taught.
A Los Angeles mechanic has redis-
covered the lost art, said to have been
possessed by the ancients, of welding
copper. But from his own description
it would seem that the recovery is
not permanent, and that the secret
will die with him, as his efforts to i'm
part it to others are not attended with
success. When asked to explain the
manner in which he made the discov-
cry, says the Los Angeles Herald, he
said:
Il began five years ago to weld cop
per just as ] weld iron. Copper weld
ing is an art, not a science, and ev-
erything lies in the eye, in the ability
to take the metal from the fire at just
the proper moment.
Il have been experimenting in weld
ing processes for over twenty-five
years, and stree / discovered the weld
ing color, / have tried to teach it to my
men, but without success.
"They are unable to distinguish color
variations under fire, which is the one
essential, and which is perfectly sim
pie and easy for me. In this lies the
great trouble in teaching the process,
and this trouble is increased by the
fact that copper is dead metal and
contains no carbon"
1t is very likely that the art among
the ancients was not general. and that
specimens which have been found in
the ruins of ancient cities were the
product of individual craftsmen, who
discovered and used it, and it died with
them, for the very reason set forth by
Mr.. Thos. A. Mcneil, the Los Angeles
man using it, in his statement to the
Herald.-Nog;les (Ariz.) Oasis.
