Koran an Important Part Of System
of Education.
In the acquisition of the Egyptian
boys education, the Koran plays the
most important part; it is, in fact, the
foundation of all instruction given. 1t
must, first of all. be committed to
memory; and the pupil is taught to
read and write each portion as fast
as it is memcrized AS mental slim
ulus-in the case of juvenile scholars
"a palm branch, judiciously admins
tered, may take the place of our more
familiar birch rod While the major
ity of the students do not pursue their
studies more than five or six years,
yet many remain much longer, fitting
themselves for the duties of doctor,
lawyer or ruler of their countrymen.
No boy may be admitted before the
age of 8, but, on the other hand, adj
vanced age is no bar to entrance; so,
If it pleases him, the man of mature
years may con his tasks beside a
youthful classmate. AS : rule, it is
only the boy of the upper class who
is able to avail himself of prolonged
course of study. The poor boy must
early in life take up the struggle for
existence. News.

BoER TOBACCO is STRONG.
White Man Cannot Endure Its Seen
IL

White Man Cannot Endure Its Scent
or Taste-BIacks Like 1t.
After Transvaal tobacco, but long
way after, comes Boer. The name is
in reality nowadays a misnomer, says
South Africa, for this tobacco is grown
largely in Natal and Cape Colony 1t
is also cultivated in the Orange River
colony, is sold by the roll and can be
obtained for about So a pound if a
whole roll is purchased 1t is also sold
by the sack.
White men buy these sacks, out they
do not smoke the contents themselves;
they use it to reward the Kaffir sery-
ants for working overtime, or doing
any other meritorious action The
taste for Transvaal tobacco is an &C.
CURED one; it also takes a certain
time before a man gets used to the
scent. No white man who has come
from distance has so far lived long
enough to acquire a liking for either
the taste or the smell, but it has it's
uses in the case of the natives, and it
is also useful if you have an unde-
sirable visitor who you are anxious to
get rid Of Offer him a pipe of Boer
tobacco and he will never enter your
home again
The traders purchase this weed
largely; they also use it upon the
natives in the shape of presents, as
every Kaffir who makes purchase in
a country store always asks for free
gift and the competition to secure the
native trade is so acute that the re-
quest cannot be refused.

The House of Bernadotte has occasion to take pride in its record as yet made. Mir. Chamberlain. writing in the Chi cago Record-Herald, thus presents the story of the Bernadottes:
 Of the reigning families of Europe none has added more to the luster of kingly honor than that to which belongs the present monarch of Sweden. From the time of it's founding by the distin- guished marshal of France, the prince of Ponue-C -Corvo, whose title came through the empiric power of the great Napoleon, the house of Bernadotte has been one which has ever commanded the highest respect and admiration.

WOMAN AGAINST WOMAN

WOMAN AGAINST WOMAN"
 Frank Harvey's splendid dramatic success Woman Against Woman will be the bill at the Jacques next week and there is no doubt that 1t will prove very popular offering to the patrons of the house. The piece is a gradual departure from the type of drama hith- erto produced by the Poli players and for that reason will serve as pleas ant change. It is of the accepted Eng fish comedy drama species with much more of the spirit of the American playwright's virility than is usually to be found in plays of its kind. The characters require very fine degree of acting to save the situations from melOdrama and for this reason the stock company players are sure to do them justice. The motive Of the another woman's goodness and happi- ness while not exactly new has been treated with an originality that makes it doubly effective. Several new faces will be seen in the cast among them Lorraine Dreux formerly leading woman of the Bowdoin Square Stock company in Boston and Willard Dashiell who was leading man of the Poli stock company in Bridgeport last season. All the other favorites of the company will be seen in congenial roles. Prices are 10. 20 and 30 cents; afternoons 10 and 20 cents, ladies 10c.
