Curious CONVERSATIONS.

George Cabot Lodge, Egyptolo-
gist, poet, student, IS his fathers
private secretary in the United
States Senate.
The world has only 100000
tons of iron ore available, and the
supply is likely to run short inside
of century.
Queen Alexandra and the Dow
ager Empress of Russia have joint
ly purchased country residence at
Hevidoere, four miles from Copen-
hagen.
President Roosevelt does not like
automobiles. He has been impor-
tuned many times to buy one or
accept one as a gift. but he refuses
even to ride in them. He sticks to
horses.
Macmonnies has been appointed
sculptor of the proposed 1000
bronze statue of Joseph Jefferson
as Rip Van Wrinkle, which is to be
mounted on a granite pedestal IN
Central Park, New York.
Prince Louis of Bavaria is among
the few royal doctors. He is a skill
ed surgeon and has performed sew
eral operations in Madrid, where
| he was staying before the marriage
of his son.
In any Servian village there is
only one swineherd and he leads
all the pigs of the community. In
the morning he goes through the
streets blowing his horn and the
pigs come out of their own accord
and fall in behind him and follow
him to the pasture. At night ne

perse to their stys in the same or
derby way as they pass the houses
to which they belong. They re-
ouire no attention and no sing
ling out.
There is an exchange in Paris
where one may purchase locks of
hair which have adorned the heads
of celebrities. Two dozen grown
by Lord Nelson recently sold for
$625, and this was considered a
rare bargain, since a much small
Ter number went for $3.50. Nobody
seems to care much for the hair of
the Duke of Wellington, since his
hirsuite product is quoted at only
s.. so a lock. Napoleon, who had
some that hung right in the middle
of his forehead, is rated at from S.
to 500 according to demand, and
Lord Byron rules fairly steady at
1877. Sex.

Texas Confectionery. 4-19-1wk

A certain man took his two sons
to an establishment where a boy
was wanted. One of the boys was
exceedingly fair to look upon, but
the other was bowlegged and
freckled, and his nose had an up
ward turn. To the surprise of the
man, the head of the establishment
picked out the freckled-faced boy;
and, on being asked why he did,
said, We are pretty busy here
and can't afford to have a boy who
has to spend any considerable
amount of time admiriug his own

Kind of Girl a Man Likes.

NlHu vi OiIt d indii Link.
Houston Chronicle
OF course, all men love pretty
face, but the girl who has a sweet,
bright face, even if she be plain of
| feature, will never lack for adj
mirers-
As for great cleverness, don't
think the average man cares
penny for that. if a girl is pleasant
and sweet tempered.
! He doesn't care whether or not
she knows the difference between
Triangle and a parabola, but he
wants her to know the difference
between a roast of beef and
beefsteak.
! He would much rather she were
loveable and companioable than
teeming with knowledge.
! A bright, intelligent girl who
keeps her eyes and ears open
knows enough to make any man
happy.
Don't try to be superior and talk
to men on learned topics.
If you do they will flee from
you as they would from the plague.
They want to be entertained, not
instructed by girls.
| A rough, noisy girl never ap-
peals to a man. He can find
enough roughness and noise among
his own sex. He wants gentleness
and refinement in a girl.
There comes a time in the life of
almost every boy, about the age of
IS, sometimes sooner, sometimes
later, when he makes up his mind
that he has had schooling enough
and that it is time he quit, and
went to work. No more mistaken
idea can come to boy than this.
Our street corners and dry goods
boxes furnish convincing testimony
of the results of this theory. To
qualify for the higher positions in
life a man needs education, the
more the better. Lack of it means,
in most cases, that the person who
lacks it is doomed to a mental po-
sition in life. No boy need fear
that the supply of day laborers is
going to run short and that it IS up
to him to make good such shortage.
On the contrary, there is always a
surplus in the field work. Then
again, this decision to quit school
is not one which concerns the boy
alone, but it concerns the whole
nation and the future of society
itself. If a son cares for no more
education than his father, other
things being equal, he will not be
better man than his father and in
most cases not as good. If this is
true, how is society to advance?
The hope of the nation is in its
young men, in its boys, and these
same boys must have sufficient
education to grasp and live up to
the responsibilities which the world
will surely lay upon them, if this
: hope is to have fruition. The above
and more is fact, not theory-so
keep the boy in school, even if it
means many sacrifices, for i'll doing
| so you are doing your best to make
a good citizen who will some day
be force for right in the world.
/ The years a boy spends in earnest
study yield him the largest salary

Coffee knitted an Old Soldier.

An old soldier, released from cof-
fee at ~, recovered his health and tells
about it as follows:
Il stuck to coffee for years, although
it knitted me again and again.
About eight years ago Gas a result:
of coffee drinking which congested my
liver), l was taken with a very severe
attack of malarial fever.
Il would apparently recover and
start about my usual work only TO suf-
fer a relapse. After this had been
repeated several times during the year

The Doctor said he had carefully
studied my case, and it was either quit
coffee or die, advising me to take Pos
tum in its place. : had always thought
coffee one of my dearest friends, and
especially when sick, and | was very
much taken back by the Doctors deci-
sion, for | hadn't suspected the coffeJ
] drank could possibly cause my trou-
bic.
thought it over for a few minutes,
and finally told the Doctor | would
make the change. Postum was pro-
cured for me the same day and made
according to directions; we'll, l liked
it and stuck to It, and since then !
have beer a new man. The change in
health began in a few days and sur
prised me, and now, although | am
seventy-two years of age, | do lots Of
hard work, and tor the past month
have been teaming, driving sixteen
miles a day besides loading and un-
loading the wagon. That's what Pos
tum in the place of coffee has done
for me. | now like the Postum as we'll
as | did coffee.
II have known people who did no.
care for Postum at first, but after hav-
ing learned to make it properly accord

RETAIN PRIMEVAL IDEAS.
Indians Are Not Free with Informal

eminent.

Alexander Posey, the Creek clerk in
the Dawes commission, who works for
the government among the full-bloods.
runs across some interesting characters
among the Indians, some of whom live
far from towns, speak their own a
guage, seldom get out OF their own
ne'ghborhood and still have faith in
the treaties of the government with the
Inlians.
One of these is Artus Hotiya, who
cannot speak English. The other day
Mr. Posey went to Hotiya's place to
&c: information concerning a child
of 1iotiya who had died. In reply 10
questions Hotiya answered:
"Tou crossed the Wewoka creek this
morning? 1t is spring and the water

RIGHT AND LEFT SIDE
RULE FOR PUPILS IN NEW YORK.
OF Carrying Books to Prevent
Curvature Of the Spine.

II Is announced that the public
school teachers of New York have re-.
ceived orders from the board of edu
cation TO require pupils TO carry their
books under their right arms IN even.
dated days and under their left arms
on odd-dated days.
II Is explained that this will tend to
the equal development Of both sides of
the body and to avert danger Of curva.
ture Of spine. Should any pupil hap
pen to make a mistake as to dates and
carry his books under the right arm on
an o%dd-dated day the consequences
might be disastrous. II must be that
nearly everybody now suffers from a
crooked spine because the discovery
was not made earlier that such a rule
should be enforced.
Hitherto school authorities have
mistakenly assumed that nature would
correct the unfortunate tendency un-
der consideration: that Is, that when
a boy got tired of carrying his lead OF
books under his right arm he would
put IL under his left arm, or swing ii
over his shoulder-any way to secure
relief from fatigue, particularly when
the load includes several unabridged
ulCllOIdTleS DUI IL muSl We IeIIlell'
bered that the boys of previous gen,
erations were fairly supplied with in
telligence and common sense, and did
not require q rule to notify them when
one arm got tired and that relief could
be secured by shifting the burden to
the other arm.
Under the new rule. by the way,
shifting the burden will not be allow.
able. When a youth starts for home
with his books under his right arm on
an even-dated day he must carry the
load under that arm the whole dis
lance, however much he may suffer
from fatigue. To be caught on May =
with his books under his left arm
would ruin his standing for precision
and obedience. To chuck them into
the rear end of n delivery wagon and
catch on would probably put a twist in
his spine from which he would never
Sscover.
The new generation might be able to
get along with the same instinct I'm
der which former generations have
survived If the faculty of acting ana
thinking for themselves were not
atrophied by the substitution of a lot
of idiotic rules for the exercise Of
their own wits.-Rochester Democrat
and Chronicle.
