GOV. ooeo,e APpLE BLOSSOMS:
Picked Before They Became a Source
Of ANNOYANCE.

FlSh-u bS'oTe lney became source
Of Annoyance.
A story is told in Maine of Gov
Cobb's boyhood and early school days.
The pupils of the town school were
in the habit of bringing blossoms to
school and presenting them to the
teacher for her desk. In the spring
many apple and cherry blossoms found
their way to school which perhaps
were not always legitimately acquired
and this led the principal, Mr.. Brad
bury, to talk to the children about the
development of fruit from the bios.
SONS and to caution them against pick.
ing the blossoms and thereby destroy.
ing the fruit.
One fine morning, soon after, the
embryo governor appeared, bearing
an armful Of fragrant apple blossoms,
which he presented to his teacher.
They are lovely" said she, but
don't you remember that Mr.. Bradbury
said that If you picked the blossoms
there wouldn't be any fruit?"
"Yes'm, but didn't get these on
Mr.. Bradburys place. got them at
Deacon Esty's; and, besides, when /
come by there in the fall the smell of

Pretty Jean e. Masters, aged
years, daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Car
son w. Masters Of Allentown, Pa. is
musical wonder, besides being a
healthy, happy and wholesome young
ster, with none of the mental and
physical peculiarities which SO often
mark the child of genius, says the
Philadelphia Record.
Without ever having taken lesson
on the piano or knowing one note
from the other, little Miss Masters has
quite an extensive repertoire of mu-
sic, all Of which she has mastered by
ear. Whenever she hears song or
tune that pleases her she listens
very attentively and then goes to the
piano and plays the selection in sim
pie chords.
Her fayorite selection is Teasing"
the well-known song from "The Wiz
ard of o." Her parents took her to
that opera, and on their return home
she Immediately played the air with
the utmost accuracy. Most of her
other selections were procured in the
same way.
a brother, Willard, aged 4, who died
two years ago, possessed similar tai
ents, and little Miss Masters first gave
evidence Of her unusual gifts when she
was years old.

NORTH DAKOTA LEADS.


The census bureau has just is
sued bulletin on the illiteracy of
native white people between the
ages of ten and fourteen years, and
it is shown that in North Dakota
in 1900 there were 7.6 out of every
thousand who could not read or
write, while in Maine the number
run up to 1876; Texas, 81; Georgia,
1O4; South Carolina, 148; North
Carolin, 166 and New Mexico, Us.
In 1890, the number in North Da-
kota was 1872 against 7.6 in 1900.
This is a very saed decrease, show
ing that about three-f -fourths of the
illiteracy had been obliterated in
ten years. Every state in the union
shows some decrease, but the pro-
portion in North Dakota is about
as large as any. This is a high
tribute to the educational system
of this state Bismarck Tribune.
