holders, Of conflicting regulations Of

The Glass Spirit.

"In the past the NOSE direful in.

downfall Of republics has ever been
the growth Of the class spirit, the
growth Of the spirit which tends TO
make man subordinate the welfare
Of the public rs a whole to the welfare
Of the particular class to which he be-
longs, the substitution Of Of loyalty 20
a elias for loyalty to the nation. This
inevitably brings about a tendency 10

individual, but on his merits as be.
longing to a certain class in the com.
munity. II such a spirit grows up In
this republic Il will ultimately prove
fatal to US, as in the past Il has proved
fatal to every community in which Il
has become dominant.
"This government Is not and never
a class for loyalty TO the nation. This
government is not and never shall be

HOW TO SWIM.

Give the boy board or piece of timber large enough to support him so long as he rests only his hands upon it and keeps his body well submerged. Let him learn now the lesson of the supporting power of water by raising his feet from the bottom. by jumping and dancing. while holding tEe board to avoid an involuntary ducking. It will not require much time for him t6 find that the water will all but hold him up and that his dependence on the board need not he very great. Teach him that the less he exposes his body or arms above the surface the easier t is to keep on. Let him raise his arms above his head and see how much easier it is to keep his feet on bottom. and then. putting his arms under again. how easily his feet seem to leave the sand.-Counfry Life tn America

The cast requires the services of the entire com pany and the characters afford room for the exercise of that splendid versa tility which has been so noteworthy all season.
