Why Barber Had Poor Opinion Of the

Educating Children.

Forcing the youthful mirl is a
practice no longer obtaining in schools
of the best standing but not yet OBJ
solete in many of the common
schools. In schools which represent
the dominant ideas OF education to-
day, stimulation, interest suggestion
prevail. and driving is avoided. II
there has been some leaning toward
the prosaic, there is now fresh In.
terest in stimulating the emotions,
and a full realization of the need of
many things conventionally not class
ed among the useful. says Golfers
Weekly. The greatest problem of ed
ucation unsolved to-day relates to
girls. Heretofore their education has
been a mere copy Of that long ago
established for boys. Some day a
genius will come along and conceive
thoughts that shall form the basis OF
an education which shall help girls to
all their best possibilities. without
dissipating their strength on lines of
effort established for natures in some
respects entirely different.

PoIiteness a V 'uahle Asset.

The career of Pro-. George A. WITT
hon, the eminent New York multiga-
mist, WHO married fifty wives in seven
years and made an average profit of
Sl.473.2O on each venture, affords les
sons that may be well taken to heart
by the youth of America. Starting
life as poor boy, with few advan-
tages of education or influence, he
rose by his own unaided efforts to the
top of his chosen profes ION. Seven
years ago. when he couy ed and won
his first wife, he was a laundering
amateur, like any other 4ilow young
man who leads the fair ;ect of his
alteration to the sacrificial altar. To-
day he is the worlds rors s...ost author
ity on the noble science of wooing
the fair. The lesson that lies in his
success for the ambitious young men
of America is the fact that politeness
Is profitable. With no other stock in
trade Witzhoff fought his way to the
first rank in the ancient art of matrl-
mony. Therefore. it is a fair conclu-
sion that courtesy would be of great
value in any other trade. A polite
policeman, CRATER, musician, or deli
catessen dealer should have the same
advantage over an impolite one that
the doctor enjoyed over his rivals

SEXES DIFFER IN CURIOSITY.
Development Result Of Struggle for
Racial Existence.

AS to woman's curiosity, it may
be said at the outset that she is not
so curious, by an initiate measure, as
is man himself. Women, it is true,
are persistently and assiduously cur
ious; but men also are not only per-
sistently and assiduously but patient
ly and Systematically curious. 1t is
the character of female curiosity that
makes it apparently contemplate.
Scientific men of every kind have no
raison d'etre for their infinitely pa
tent research save pure curiosity
alone; and their curiosity has no more
purpose in it than has the curiosity
of the woman who cannot rest until
she finds out all discoverable facts
about her neighbors, or the cause of a
mysterious sound by night.
These two forms of curiosity. the
male and the female originated no
doubt in the early needs of the race
long before men appeared on the earth.
The male animal is interested in the
causes of remote things-things which
upon being run down might turn out
useful for food purposes. The female
is interested in the quick investigation
of near and small things which may
turn out menace to the lives of her
young. The female watches with in
tense and lively interest the vicinity
OF the nest or lair; the male is prompt
ed to look abroad-away from the lair.
In or towards fields where his daily
prey is found. These two kinds of
curiosity were among the most potent
instruments in the struggle for racial
existence and in the ultimate devel-
opment of man-National Magazine.

Superstition About PIGS.

The pig plays part in many be.
liefs. Mr.. Hickson, who travelled much
in the Celebes and adjacent islands,
found a tribe who believed that the
whole earth is borne by a pig belong
ing to the god Mak-a-wa-lang, who
dwells in the under world, and that
the frequent earthquakes in that re.
gion are caused by the pig rubbing
itself against the trees. Some of the
inhabitants, however, assert that the
world does not stand on the pig itself,
but on a number of piles, and with
such terrible results, says the London

Natural Beauties in Trinidad.

Great butterflies. of beauty un-
seen in temperate climates, are plen-
tiful in Trinidad and make the island
fascinating place for the collector.
But the bird life there is the most
beautiful of all. Birds of bewildering
brilliancy of plumage are as common

Offers $1,000 for Giraffe.

AT one time the London Zoo had a
standing offer of $1,000 for a good
adult male giraffe. Not only are the
animals scarce in Africa. but the
work of transporting them oversee is

solicitude and care, they are landed
safely in New York, Hamburg or Lon
don, they are apt to die like flowers.
