Sharp Air; Sharp Boy.

1t was cold day, and the wind was
blowing fercely as a boy entered street
car, leaving the door open, much to the dis
comfort of an old gentleman who sat next.
As the wind chilled his marrow his temper
arose Leaning across his seat and taking
the kid by his ear, he said: aWere you
brought up in barn2 Why don't you
shut the door?' The boy said nothing,
but closed the door, coming back to his
seat in tears. This sight moved the
old man to relentling pity. There,

mean you were brought up in barn.
"That's just it, retorted the kid. 81
was brought up in barn, and every time
I see jackass it makes me think of it.

The Stock Tank.

Be careful about that stock tank during
warm, sultry days. If it stands in the
sun the water is no doubt very warm and
filed with green scum, and this must be
very disagreeable to the live stock that
must drink it. Would you like your su-
periors to furnish you with such drinking
water? Better clean out the tank, scrub
i with soapsuds and lime and pump it full
of clean, pure water from the well. The
dumb brutes will appreciate il, I'll war
rant. Such tanks should have q shed over
them all the year round, protection from

MORE REFORM IN RUSSIA.
A Plan to Solve the Problems Of Edu
cation.

ST. Petersburg, Nov 49, The minister
Of education, M Kaufman, has Just sub
mitted TO the cabinet d plan for the REL
form Of the primary educational system
of Russia. which next to the agrarian re-
forms IS recognized as the gravest prob
lem confronting the Russian government.
The most important feature Of the min.
ister's proposals is one providing for the
abandonment Of the old policy. which
threw hindranees in the way Of efforts to
spread elementary knowledge among the
ignorant masses Of the Russian peas
antry on the ground that education
means revolution. NJ. Hartmann recon-
mends instead that the central govern
Iment support all such efforts and as-
sumo the payment Of minimum salaries
TO teachers IN the popular schools opened
BY the zemstyos and other local admin
listrations. As the greatest difficulty is
in the lack Of capable teachers, the min
ister proposes To enlarge at the states
expense the number Of schools where
teachers are educated. In regard to the
schools for the non. Russian population,
the minister proposes to permit elemen-
tary education being given to pupils
| IN their mother tongue on the condition
that the teaching on Russian history and
geography must be IN Russian.
