which are thus kept dry and brittle by the heat from the large fireplace.
 As the baking day comes not oftener than once a season, one might easily imagine that the last loaves on the pole would lose their original appearance of bread and be anything but inviting to the appetite. The Swedes, however, are extremely neat about their kitch- ems. The floor is kept secured and sanied. The family washing is done in a separate room or building; never in the kitchen. The fireplace, when cooking is going on, is covered by a smoke apron which lets no smoke or odor escape into the room. The fresh ness and neatness of the peasant kitch- en make even the hard bread appetiz- ing.
 The bread is made by very simple recipe. Rye flour and water and yeast these are only necessary ingredients. Sometimes salt is added, but everything not yielded by the soil is a luxury to the poorer classes Instead of the caraway seeds which the German baker; puts in to his rye bread the Swede uses anise seed.
 The dough is made very. stiff and rolled out like pie-crust, not more than a quarter of an inch thick, It is then cut into large circles, about twice the size of an ordinary pie "tin." A hole is cut in the middle of each circle with what do you think?-part of a cows horn! By nature the Swede is econom- ical and resourceful, and when a cut ter can be procured at home without

 Within few days the seagoers on both sides of the Atlantic will have at their disposal the newest and most complete product of marine architec- ture. The ''Amerika," of the Hamburg American Line, just completed at the ship yards of Harland & Wolf of Bel fast, will make her first trip from the other side, leaving Hamburg, Dover and Cherbourg this month and arriv- ing at New York about the 18th. She is thus expected to make the crossing h about seven days.
 The new twinscrew ocean liner is a marvel even among the modern giants Of the sea. With the exception of her sister ship, the ''Kaiserin Auguste Victoria" to be ready for service in May, 1906, the ''Amerika" is the larg- est ship ever built for passenger ser vice. Her construction and equip mont include many novel features, with regard both to the safety and the luxurious comfort of her passengers.
 This remarkable ship has length of nearly 700 feet over all, a breadth of "A feet 6 inches, and a depth of 5 feet. Her displacement, exceeding that of any other ship in the world, is about 42OOO tons and her gross ton- mage about 23,OO0 tons. Loaded she carries 16,000 tons of cargo, which means that if her full cargo was trans ferred to freight cars, and these placed end to end, they would cover a dis

of the question; and even if this were not sufficient, it was comparatively unknown in the interior. There was no common language and racial antipathy argued strongly against the adoption of any one of the dialects, which, though somewhat similar in structurc, are quite different in vocabulary, and have never shown signs of fusion. Furthermore, the paucity of the dialects and their ineXactness would never admit of the carrying on of advanced instruction through their channels" If all this is not enough, it may be noted that there was no native dialect in which suitable books could be secured; that making one official would produce a tendency toward the disunion rather than the union of the Filipinos, the Tagalog becoming more intimately "Tagalog and the Visayan holding himself aloof with even, more earnestness than today, T1 bind the Filipinos into an official and commercial. if not domestic nationality, the bull was taken by the horns; English was introduced not as an exotic, but as an actual teaching language.

making the school a seat of industry. As ytt industrial education, the bread winning means of the mass S, has not advanced, says Mr Atkinson, 10 the degree which conditions in the islands demand. A model agricultural school has been established, it is true, and common manual training is going on in some of tha provincial csEtrEs; but, excepting the central trade school in Manila, progress in the ordinary schools has far outd!stanced that accomplished industrially, Our author believes that growth in the two lines of work, academic and industrial, should bs more nearly parallel; the only comfort he finds i'll the situation as regards the latter is that it is still in it's infancy. The agricultural nature of the entire country, he says, demands it's extension, for the masses must always remain dependent upon the soil for maintenance.
 Concerning the question, What further? Mir. Atkinson remarks that a need for higher institutions hardly exists as yet In some villages the step has been made from primary to secondary institutions grammar schools are in existence and something higher will undoubta ally be held out to a class, not numerous, willing to pursue advanced courses And a technical school with courses in mining and civil and electrical engineering, to prepare young men for practicala work in developing their country, is also within view. More remote, but within reason, are schools of fine arts and university with schools of law and medicine.
 Taking un the decision to make English the language of instruction, at various times severely criticised by critics at home, Mr. Atkinson remarks that destruction of their national literature and tongue by foisting the English language upon these people was hardly proper expression to be used in connection with land where there never was a common dialect, not to mention language; where nothing of importance in the way of native | literature existed, and there was such
 a confusion of tribes that ethnologists have not yet worked out their solution. 1 There was but one thing to do 1 adopt English. This was the unani-
 nous opinion of the military officials who had come to know the people and the conditions; it was the eager desire of the people themselves; it was the
 only course open. Spanish, associated with all that had gone before, was out

tance of 10 miles. She has accommo- dations for 3,400 passengers and carries a crew of 600, making total of 4,O00 or nearly as many persons as the popu- lation of an 1S-story slSyscraper in New York. In the first-class division she will carry $50 passengers; in the se- cond- class 300, and in the third or in- teremdiate class 25O, and in the steer age 2,5OO.
 Probably the most important among < the many novelties introduced in the construction and equipment of the giant ship are the Kaiser Zimmer, or Imperial suites, at the fore end of the lower promenade deck, affording &C., commodations for seven persons; the spacious restaurant on the upper pro- inenade deck and the electric passenger elevator.
 The Imperial suites exceed in lux ury and convenience anything pre- viously attempted on shipboard. They include bedrooms, with lower berths, lower sofa berths and Pullman berths; private sitting-room, dinning-room, bathrooms and Wardrobes. The rooms are of unusual size, some of the larger being 12x14 feet and 14xS feet. The appointments and decorations are cal culated to satisfy the tastes of the most refined, not to say fastidious, voyageurs. The rooms form an agree able substitute for like accommodations in the best hotels on either continent. The cost of these Imperial suites for a voyage is about $25OO, affording ac- commodations for six or seven people.
 While emphasis is laid on the I'm perial suites there is much to be said for the other high-class accommoda- tions, provided on the lower promenade deck and the upper deck.
 Aside from it's novelty, the import ance of the a Ia carte restaurant as an adjunct to modern ocean travel will be appreciated by even hardened old searovers, while to those whose deli- cate appetites rebel against fixed menus at stated periods the innova- tion will be doubly welcome. The res- taurant is a spacious salon, located amidship on the upper promenade deck, where meals will be served at all hours, under the supervision of Ritz's Carlton Hotel, of London. It will accommodate 120 persons. The idea is an elaboration of the grill room feature of the Deutschland" and other express steamers of the Hamburg American Line, the success of these suggesting that a restaurant, in every way equal to the dining salons of the best hotels of the world, would be. a proper adjunct to the equipment of the most luxurious steamship afioat. The restaurant is decorated in the Renais- sa,lee style, with elaborate effects in chased bronze. The Continental ar lists who. designed large share of the ships interior decorations put some Of their best effort in this salon.
 without attempting to enumerate all 4he novel features of the new ship, a few more may be mentioned. These include Marconi wireless telegraph apparatus; stateroom telephone ser vice; several trained nurses: a nursery, a ladies' writing room and ladies hairdresser; a florists shop; hydro patIic and electric baths and massage; q thoroughly equipped gymnasium, and last. but by no means least, luxur- ious smoking room for first-class passengers.

THE HARD BREAD OF SWEDEN

It Is Truly the Staff of Life to the
 Hardy Peasants.
 Hard bread, or "hardt ;brod," is truly the staff of life in Sweden. Without it no meal would be complete. With sour milk and dried fish, it forms the daily food of the peasants, while those who can afford the white bread and rich cakes and pastries still call for th ehard bread of their forefathers,
 In every cottage and farmhouse in Sweden may be seen a long pole stretching across the kitchen near the fireplace, and suspended from the ceil- ing by ropes hung from two large hooks This pole is weighted down by what looks like thin wooden wheels, but which are really 'loaves' of bread,

JAPANESE GIRL FELLS A
MASHER.

Weighing no more than one hun.
dred and ten pounds, o Mi Misoa
Sogo, japanese woman twice threw
to the sidewalk in New York an
athletic man who addressed her in
offensive terms.
Miss Sogo had turned from a
window of dry goods store when
John f. MeCulien approached her.
Graspiug her arm, be said: "Don't
you know me?
Miss Sogo took just a minute to
kick him behind the left knee, and
when McCullen weakened she thrust
her other No. / boot against his
ankle and threw him over on his back
on the sidewalk.
This action brought several hun.
dred persons to the scene. Women
crowded around the Japanese girl
and called to her to beat the man.
Shsmefaced, McCullen arose to his
feet and the girl asked:
'Have you enough ?"
NsNo," he replied, as he made a
step toward her. Jiu jitsu again
triumphed. This time the Japanese
thrust her arm under McCullen's
throat, and with quick twist of her
right arm again threw him to the
sidewalk. She landed with her knee
on his stomach, and he cried for
mercy. There were nearly two thou
sand persons in the street, when two
bicycle policemen broke through the
crowd and arrested McCullen. Men
aud women cheered the Japanese girl
as she walked away triumphant.

DECOY FoR sQUIRRELs.

Here is good one from off the @.

1t is true:
The following story may seem
strange, but is nevertheless true.
Squirrels this year are more plentiful
than ever known before. Every day
from daybreak until 8 o'clock in
every direction can be heard the FIR
ing Of the sportsman's gun. The
table of every family is served with
squirrels in many ways, according to
choice.
One man, Mr.. Williams, is known
to have killed more than any other
two huntsmen. He has already killed
lS6. He will go every time alone,
staying not more than an hour, re-
turning with as many as he wanted.
How he did it no one knew, or would
he tell. Finally be was watched,
and yesterday the secret got out.
He had three Waterbury watches.
lie would get into the woods, go to
two hickory trees where the squirrels
feed. He would wind the watches
up, put them in a small tin can and
to each can a string. Then each was
tied to the limb of tree. Then he
would get in some secluded spot. AS
the watches would tick away the
noise was like that of squirrel cut
ting nut and could be heard for
great distance. Every squirrel IN the
would be drawn to the
trees where they supposed their COM
panions were having a big feast. Iu
this way every squirrel has been
killed by being decoyed in those two
trees by this new device.
Mr.. Williams says be has seen as
many as six at a time running around
the limbs where the watches were
fastened. Often they would get so
crazy they would fall from the limbs.

A STORY ABOUT GEN. GRANT.

Daniel r. Goodhue, for many years
a distinguished resident of Wash
ington and chairman Of the commits
sion TO free the slaves Of the District,
once told this story:
Zone morning soon after the sur
render at Appomatox l was one of q
group of gentlemen standing on
Pennsylvania avenue discussing the
momentous questions of the day. AS
We talked General Grant rode toward
us, smoking his usual cigar. Recog-
nizing several of us, he dismounted
and Joined us.
"Whats the news ?" he asked.
al answered, ave are discussing a
piece of news which comes to us
directly from the White House and
which gives me no little concern" !"
What is it p asked the general.
81 understand that President An
drew Johnson intends to revoke the
parole of General Lee and other
generals of the late Southern Con-
federacy."
"Who was your informant?' asked
General Grant.
81 gave him the name of the gen.
tleman who had given the informa-
ton.
"General Grant quietly said,
Thank you, gentlemen 'remounted
his horse and rode rapidly away to-
ward the White House.
"We leisurely turned our steps in
the same direction, and as we entered
the portico we saw Grant coming
down the steps looking more excited
than | bad ever seen him before.
went up stairs and met friend who
had been in conferences that morn
ing with Mr.. johnson on the subject
above mentioned. lie said to me:
'If you have any request to make of
the president this morning, keep it
until some other time. He is angrier
than | have ever seen him. A mo-
ment ago General Grant strobe into
his presence and peremptoriIy de-
manded: "Do you intend to revoke
the parole of General Robert L. Lee
and other officers of the late con-
federacy %
al am considering the subject
johnson replied. "You need not
consider it. Those paroles were
signed by me as general commanding
the army of the United States. My
promise to them shall be kept in
good faith if it takes the army of the
United States, plus the army of the
late Confederacy, to enforce it,
Saying this, Grant retired and
left johnson white with rage"
"We never heard any more of the
revocation of the paroles"

AN UNUSUAL ELECrIoN STORY.

With election fever at its height
good story bearing on the subject is
sure to ind wide appeal among
men that vote and women that would
-or would not-like to. Such q
one is that called "Spatters's Cam
paign," in the November Lippin-
colts, by Sarah Comstock. In it a
candidate for Governor of California
is elected through the efforts of his
small son, who declares he ''intends
to be the Governors son or bust"
"Spatters's" father was to deliver a
stump speech at San Diego in his
own behalf as candidate for Gov
ernor of California. While practis-
ing the speech, mounted on a hogs
head, he fell in and broke his leg.
Spatters had been a rapt listener
to ais fathers eloquence and in the
evening the little boy appeared before
the meeting to deliver the speech
from memory:
"'Gentlemen, ] know the speech
aud it's corker. This is it: Friends,
San Diegans, behind us lies the past;
before as lies the future."' His
frecsled little right hand stretched
to the future while the left pushed
back the past. "'It has been nobly
said that we shall reap as we have
sown; in many cases, therefore, we
must reap the fruit of poisonous
seeds. But each year brings its new
sowing; what do we now choose to
plant p"
The crowd was surging towards
the platform in its enthusiasm, but
Eary and Bill held it back and
motioned to the child to proceed.

eration,"' the speech flowed on, every

"'Arise, San Diegans stand here
before you to emphasize-to en-

"He turned cold with fear. He
could not remember what came next.
He struck the platform savsgely with
his right foot, struck it over and
over, but the gesture did not bring
the words. Then he remembered
why. 'Ob, l didn't hear no more
