MecIure,s.

In the March McClures Miss Ida M.
Tarbell's Commercial Observation-Disclosures"
brings home the lax morals that have
built up great corporations and business
houses, showing how the axloms of Ma
chiavellrs Prince although pretty
strong even for Italy of the Medici. form
the catechism of the modern captain of
industry. Ray Stannard Baker continues
his series, 1.-The Railroads on Trial. de-
voting the current number to the forma-
ton of public opinion by the railroads and
shippers. Carl Schurz's "Reminiscences
of a Long Life furnishes the most ex-
citing chapter yet had, 1.-THE Escape From
Rastatt." which recounts the story Of
how Schurz with two companions, on the
surrender of the fortress to the Prussians,
hid in a barn where the enemy's cavalry
were bivouaced. and finally escaped
through a deserted sewer. Anthony Fiala
concludes his accounts of Five Years in
the Arctic" with the story of the separa-
ton of the party. the last advance north
in the darkness, the final surrender, and
the arrival of the relief ship. Many Of
the photographs in this instalment are
even more remarkable than those in the
February number. Clara Morris has a
charming bit of stage recollection, Look
ing Backward" in which she tells how
she saw Henry Irving for the first time
while she was hunting a leading man for
Mr.. DAILY.
The March number is unusually strong
in good fiction with 1.-THE Exiles" by
Harvey J. OHlggins: "a Matter of Prin-
clple, by Samuel Hopkins Adams: the
third story OF the Arizona Nights" Sc
ries, 1.-THE Cattleman's Yarn: the Remit
lance Man story" by Stewart Edward
White; 1.-THE Last Pilot Schooner" by
Ralph D. Paine; "A Grief Deferred" by
Alice Brown "a Small Person." by Mary
Talbot Campbell and "A Retrbutive
Trip" by Jeanette Cooper.
The poems which balance the number,
are: 1.-The Crocus." by Herbert Trench;
Beyond the Spectrum by Florence Will
kinson; '"rhe Marionettes,' by Witter
Bynner; I'm the Night" by Paul Kester;
and "A Song" by A. e. Housman.

The Reader.

The name Baltimore" to the mind of
the average man or woman, calls up a
picture of a city, half southern, half
northern, where the hurry and hustle of
modern progressive business is unknown
and where last century conservatism Is
still strongly entrenched. To these the
article on the new Baltimore, in The
Reader for March, will be an interesting
and illuminative bit of writing. The ar
tcle is by Merrill A. league; it is illus
trated, and tells the story of the birth
of a modern, well built thoroughly

Gle laughed outright, and began telling me how
the elephant was hurt. She had stepped nail

of her foot She in intense agony and almost

MY MOTHERS GARDEN.

Alice II. Allen
Her heart was like her garden.
Old-fashioned, quaint and sweet.
A wealth of buds and blossoms
Hid in still retreat.
Sweet violets of sympathy
Were always opening there
And lilies white and pure Enclosed
Each one a whispered prayer.
forget-me-nots there fingered,
TO late perfection brought
And there bloomed purple pansie.
In many tender thought
There hopes first snowdrops tool, doom roo+
And Powered because they must;
There loves own roses reached above
On trellises of trust.
And in that quiet garden
The garden of her heart
Song birds built nests. and caroled
Their songs of cheer apart;
And from it still floats back to us.
Oercoming sin and strife.
Sweet as the breath of roses blown.
The fragrance of her life

Tearing CnrdS.

To tear a pack of cards in two is re-
garded by some as a marvellous feat of
strength, and yet the trick is possible
to any one with fairly strong fingers.
The secret of the trick lies in the fact
that the entire pack is not torn at once,
but in pretending TO get a grip on the
pack the strong man so manipulates
the cards that they overlap. In this
way but single card is torn at time
and once the surface is torn the rest is
easy. To any one who can hold a pack
of cards firmly the trick is fairly easy.
and while in olden times a single pack
of cards was considered to be the limit
of strength many of our strong men
tear three and four packs at a time.
The cards are restored TO their origi-
nal form before being given out for
examination, and so the trick escapes
detection.

Mig Growth Of MIIIet.

The millets have made tremendous
growths at the experiment station in
the upper peninsula of Michigan when.
ever sown. They will mature in a short
season and. although they are easily
killed by the frosts. they grow so rap.
idly that a good harvest may be ex.
pected when they are sown In May or
even as late as the LIST of June. When
sown the 4th of June the Hungarian
millet was harvested the Sd of Septem.
Der, yielding nearly four tons to the
acre. Sown again June 8, 1904. it was
harvested Sept. IA, yielding something
over three tons per acre. The fact that
the plots at the station are exceedingly
small must be kept in mind In consider
ing these yields.
