Petriaed Schoolhouse.

New England, N. D., possesses what
is probably the most remarkable
schoolhouse in the country. The struc-
ture is twenty-four feet square, one
story in height and built entirely of
petrifled wood except the roof, which
is shingled. The wood Of the ancient
forests which covered the prairies Of
Hettinger county has become agatized,
and in the absence Of other building
material the people Of this place deter
mined to erect their primitive educa-
tional institution of this beautiful pet
rif1cation. Great care has been exer-
cised in the construction Of the school
house, SO that the material shows of
to the best advantage, and when the
sun shines the building glistens like
crystal.

ART OF KEEPING COOL.
Sensible Suggestions to Follow Dur

Sensible Suggestions to Follow Dur
ing the Coming summer.
When the hot summer days are upon
us and 1t is impossible to change our
environment the best help toward keep
ing cool is TO learn to adapt ourselves
to it.. But with ell of us habit is 50
strong that few of US think of adapta-
ton, and as consequence we suffer
from way OF living which is suited
only to the cold winter months.
The cultivation of peace Of mind Is
the first requisite. A cool bath taken
on rising Is the best tonic to prepare
one for the days labor and exposure
A tepid. cool bath or short hot bet
may be taken in the evening, AID il
greatly fatigT2ed it is one of the most
effective means Of bringing refreshing
sleep. Another necessity to keeping
cool is not only in the exercise Of body.
but in the matter Of diet as well. All
bodily heat arises from the oxidation
or burning Of the food we eat. So
when the te:rpera ture rises the body
needs less fuel. A warm weather
breakfast should be n very light meal
AS four-flfths of our food is used for
fuel it is easily seen that in summer
we need only small quantity to sup
ply vitality for bodily and mental
work. The ideal breakfast would be
whole wheat bread or zwieback, with
some wholesome ripe fruit, such as
strawberries, plums, melons or apples.
BY giving ourselves the benefit Of
our store of common sense many Of
us would go forth to the trials Of n
day In the heat prepared for it by a
diet conducive to health. How many
q man prepares for such a day with a
breakfast made up of grldd!ecakes,
soda biscuit, fried eggs and bacon, sau-
sages, worcestershire sauce and strong
coffee! BY noon he feels the heat to
such an extent that he feels compelled
to drink large quantities of ice water,
beer or other cooling beverages. Con-
trast the discomforts Of such q one in
the temperate zone with q cody work
ing bareheaded in the direct rays Of
the sun in climate 20 degrees hotter.
The cody is not uncomfortable because
he has adapted his diet to his environ
ment. Any man who excites his heart
and initiates hts nerves by a diet Of
flesh foods must expect to need all
sorts Of artificial means to make his
life bearable in the hot weather.-New

Wanted Merry Men In Camp.

DR.. William Henry Drummond, the
poet of the French Canadians, has
given up his medical practice and
gone into copper mining in the dom.
tnion. Part of his duty recently was
to engage a number Of workmen. In
doing so he astonished everybody by a
radical departure from old-time
methods. After asking some more or
less perfunctory questions regarding
q candidates ability as a miner he
inquired: Can you play the fiddle
or concertina? Do you dance or sing?"
II was noticed that unless the man
could give Affirmative reply to at least
two of these questions he stood small
chance Of getting work. The wisdom
of DR.. Drummond's course became
apparent when 1t developed that near
ly all the men he engaged were good
humored fellows whose happy spirits
kept the mining camp in peace.

Senator'S Expert KNOWLEDGE.

Senator Foraker, while debating the
pure food bill, was getting warm on
the subject Of fusel oil in whisky. He
had submitted to several Interruptions
and his patience was about exhausted
when Senator Ti!iman asked him q
question. The Ohio man replied some
what pettishly, whereupon Tillman
said: Il was head barkeeper down
in South Carolina when the dispen-
sary system was inaugurated, and
know what ! am talking about" Mr..
Foraker allowed him to go on, and in
five minutes the Southerner amply
made good his boast and had shown
that he was the best posted man in
the senate on the making of whisky,
and had silenced everybody, Foraker
included. Il am not much of sharp
on the taste Of whisky, but know all
about the making of It," he ended
triumphantly, and no one could say
him nay.

committed murder in At Of jealousy.
She has been in prison ever since.
Now the Home ONCE, DESTROYS that
the woman should be given a chance

the initiative in offering to hand over
the woman to the care of the Saliva
ton Army. She will be placed in one
of the Army's country homes, and will
remain entirely under the supervision
of that organization which will also
be responsible for her maintenance.
This is a new experiment in the refor-

Is intended to repeat in the case Of
other unfortunate persons, who are
not necessarily criminal In their in
clinations, but have lost their liberty

Respect for Age In Japan.

In Japan there is no such thing as
disrespect from youth to age. No
japanese boy or girl could ever think
in a light or disrespectful manner of
his or her superiors or teachers; and
this may account for the earnestness
