farmers telephone lines into the sur- rounding territory. Anywhere from fifteen to thirty telephones were put on one line. The farmers paid one dollar month for the service, and in addition to having the free use of the line for telephoning among themselves. and to the merchants of the town, they had
 even a greater boon. The editor, as an inducement to subscribers, inaugurated a daily telephone news service.
 Every night when he received the latest Chicago newspapers, he cut out the principal headlines, summarized
 the leading news items, and at a cer- tain hour, in response to a given signal
 all the farmers. on his lines picked up their receivers and the editor read to them the full news of the day. In this way, families living twenty miles from
 the nearest railroad or telegraph station had the news of the world as quickly as Jewellers in the great cities. The idea spread until now hundreds of country
 telephone companies are giving their farmer subscribers daily news service

The returns thus far for the fiscal year are even more strikins and encouraging. Since July 1st our total exports of domestic products have reached s1,19S, ,oOO,OOO, an increase of $l9OOOO,O00 during that period. About $67,5O0,000 of this gain occurred in 'breadstuffs.

SOME MORE HAPPTNESS.

The other day happy married wom- an told an interested public how she made her own happiness and that of her husband. Her plan seemed quite sensible and unselfish, but perhaps it wouldn't work in every home Those who think it wouldn't can perhaps se- cure happiness by adopting the plan of young woman in Indiana, who has decided that she is going to have hap piness even if her husband has to make it. She made her husband-elect sign an agreement before the marriage cer- emony in which he promises to wash the supper dishes every day except on Sunday, to darn his own socks, to visit his mother-tn-law at least three times year, to give up smoking, to drink tea instead of coffee, to attend church meetings regularly, to wear whiskers if he can raise them, and to kiss his wife before and after each meal, except on Sunday"
 This iss of course. little enough for a man to agree to do in order to be happy and make his wife happy. It is possi- ble that in this case the wife will find that the agreement made by her hus- band doesn't include all that is needed Tor her and his happiness. If she does she will probably not hesitate to make an addition to It. But whatever she adds she win be cheap at the price.

United States senators know much, but the news comes from Washington that it has been something of a shock to members of the General Staff of the army to find senators who do not ap- preciate the object of the army war college This was developed in a re- cent hearing before the Senate Military committee, when it appeared that Sen ator Scott, among others, had an idea that the army war college was an in- stitution where deficient officers were trained into a state of efficiency. The senator and his associates who possess ed the same notion of the object of the college have gone on appropriating for the institution with very improper appreciation of what the college really was. It is not a college, strictly speak ing, except in name the student off, cers have to do with war problems, and the lectures delivered are along the lines of discussion tending to solve

It isn't all pie to be baker in France. Bakers in France are subjected to cer- tain unusual rules and regulations. In large fortified towns, for instance, they must always have certain stock on hand in case of war. Not only this, but everywhere they have to deposit a sum of money in the hands of the mu- nicipal authorities as surety of good conduct; and the law, not content with merely looking after their weights and measures, actually decides the price at which bread is sold.

The Berlin paper Mittag says that bricks of sand and lime, which were first made in 1880, but have only been used on large scale for the last eight years, are becoming a dangerous rival to the old style of clay bricks. These new bricks consist solely of sand and lime without any other binding ma- terial~or ingredient, and they cost much less than clay bricks. Furthermore, sand is found almost everywhere, and factories can be placed at points where transportation is favorable, while the clay used for clay bricks is often found in locations whence transportation is very expensive.

There are people who believe that marriage is a serious matter Judge H. H. Moorman, of Breckinridge coun- ty, Kentucky, who but recently left the bar for the bench, has made formal an- snouncelnent that he will not perform the marriage ceremony. The laws give hin the right to so officiate, and once ysince he became judge he has exer- cised it, but he will not do so again. He believes that no person "other than priest or preacher has the God-giving right to perform 8 marriage ceremony" and that it's performance by others de- tracts from the sacredness of the con- dract.

 Richard D. Thomson, of Edinburgh rne other day told an audience that, when schoolboy, he frequently saw Sir Walter Scott. Once, when on a fishing expedition, Sir Walters car riage came along and stopped, and Mr Scott, of Raeburn, told Sir Walter who MT. Thomson was. Sir Walter spoke to him, patted him on the shoulder, and hoped that he would be a good boy and a credit to his ancestors. He was known to the Scotts, as his grandfather sold the first bit of Abbotsford to Sir Walter MT. Thomson was quite elated at the carriage stopping on his account.

The Methods OF the Elephant Hunter
In the Far East.
This is how elephants are hunted In
CeyIon: The people begin by clearing
an open space near forest. part OF
which is strongly fenced in with trunks
of trees, with open places for doors.
Then the elephants are found and with
blazing torches, rattling of noisy in
struments and spears are driven to-
wnrd the open doors.
at last with a rush, the great herd
enters, the entrances are barred, and
the poor giants of the wood find them
selves hopeIessly imprisoned. An ele-
plants rage is dreadful to witness, but
the ingenuity of man has found a way
OF subduing it. One by one each pris-
oner is freed again, and tame ele-
plants, remarkable for their sagaclty,
come up to him. stroke him with their
trunks and otherwise cajole him until
they lead him ON to good strong tree.
The natives creep up behind, and in a
minute the elephant IS made fast to the
tree by his leg.
All the time this Is going on the tame
elephants are humorfng their deluded
victim, but as soon as he IS secured
they go away and leave him, Then
the men bring him cocoant1ts and
leaves to eat. which, of course. he re-
fuses. MS he Is again in great passion
and struggling to be free.
But hunger subdues even the hercest
and at last his wild roaring ceases, and
he eats. From that time the tanning
process IS comparatively easy. Again
and again he is fed, rs he requires 1t,
bv n kind hand. and the elephant. sus-
ceptibIe to kindness, becomes at last a
docile servant of the man.
