SCHOOLBOYS IN PERSIA.

Oriental children have their marbles, their skip
ping rope and little toy plows, into which cats and
kittens are harnessed for play. They enjoy life
fully as much do American children, declares the
author of Persia by ersian." When the boys
are 10 years old they sent to school in the near
est mosque. Parents will sometimes take bow
to school and deliver him over to the gentle care
of the teacher with these words: His bones are
mine, but his flesh is yours. Teach him and pun
ish him you see fit"
When boys go to school they usually sit in two
rows One row sits along one wall, books in hand
and the other along the opposite wall The
teacher sits in the middle of the room They do
not use chairs, but sit on the floor, which is COW
cred with a reed mating. When they are study
ing their lessons thew sway their bodies backward
and forward, if they were in a rocking chair
and they read with loud voice in a singing style
as if they were chanting
They have neither blackboards nor States but
use paner and reed pens in Earnings to write They
put their left knee the floor and set their right
knee up for desk to rest the paper on. They use
the Arabic alphabet, and read and write from left
to right. They also begin their books at the back
reading forward. The ability to read single Per-
sian book is considered in Central Asia to be the
sign of liberal education The attendance at
school is voluntary, no one being compelled to
send his boys if he prefers to keep them at home

who was both a scholar and a philosopher and at
the same time a professed atheist, in of his
works wrote: "1f you acknowledge Supreme Be
ing then kneel before the crucifed. Do you believe
in God! If you do you are a Christian and d
Catholic; if you do not dare to avow it, for then
it will not only be to the church that you declare
war, but to the faith of the whole human race
Between these two alternatives there is room tor
nothing except ignorance and insincerity."
All this is logically true if we build our faith
on the tradition of the human and on what
the Israelites believed. Belief in God and the fall
of Adam are coeYal with the history of man. Hence
the necessity of a Mediator to reconcile man with
God, since himself could not commune with
God This Mediator was Jesus, and as Mediator
he must necessarily be both God and man. As man
he could not commune directly with God, nor make
the necessary sacrifice viz, an infinite sacrlhce,
required to effect a reconciliation Therefore a
profession of faith in God, and the admission OF
original sin must necessarily include profession
of faith in the divinity of Christ, who was the
Mediator
Apart from his office as Mediator, and his Won
derful works his divinity is easily demonstrated
1t be historically shown that his life was alto
gether superior to the age in which he lived That
the character of his life supernatural and SUI
per human. That he must have in communion with
an object above the world and above nature.
Therefore his life was supernatural, and the
"Word made flesh was God. A simple denial of
the historical record, that proves all this, with
proof for the denial, only shows the weakness Of
error when arrayed against the truth. Firm faith
in the divinity leads where! We quote once more
Proudhon II here solemnly VOW that if the
church (Catholic) succeeds in overthrowing the
system Of argument-anti-t heistical-which | OPP
pose to her, [ will abjure my philosophy and die
in her BOSOM" +. d.

"THANK YOU :"

Several winters ago coming out
from some public building when the heavy door
swung back and made the egress somewhat diff
cult. little street urchin sprang to the rescue,
and as he held open the door she said, "Thank YOU
and passed on
Dye hear that" said the boy to a companion.
"No; what?'
why that lady said Thank ye' to the likes O.
me-"
Amused at the conversation, which she could
not help overhearing, the lady turned round and
said to the boy:
ut always pays to be polite, my boy; remem-
Der that"
Years passed away; and last December, when
doing, her Christmas shopping, this same lady
ceived an exceptional courtesy from clerk in Bos-
ton, whom she thanked
Pardon me- madam, but you gave me my first
lesson in politeness few years ago"
The lady looked at him in amazement, while he
related the little forgotten incident and told her
that that simple Thank YOU awakened his first
ambition to be something in the world He went
the next morning and applied for a situation as
Office boy in the establishment where he was now
honored and trusted clerk.
Only two words, dropped into the treasury of
street conversation, but they yielded returns of
certain kind more satisfactory than investments,
stocks and bonds.

THE SECRET OF BEING WEALTH Y
(Universalist Leader

1t is curious how people struggle to get rich,
when riches so truly relative that everyone could
be rich if he would quit struggling to get to the
head of a procession which is marching in circle
Just reach hand back to the fellow who is behind
you and know the satisfaction of being rich 1t is
when stretching forward to try and hold
back the one in front until we get ahead that we
feel our limitations. The man in the rural com
munty gets $4,000 and is rich but not satisfied to
stay there, he removes to the city to be poverty
stricken on the same income. Many a man who
rich as he logged along in his buggy drawn by
old horse has discovered his abiect poverty when
he traded for automobie Wisdom exercised in
choice of surroundings is the secret of being
wealthy.

SOME BOYS, MISTAKES.

1t is mistake for boy to think that a dashing
staggering manner will commend him to others
The fact is, that the quiet modest boy is much more
IN demand than the boy of the staggering type
More than one boy has essened his chances Of sue
cess in life by acquiring in boyhood pert, smart
dashing manner, particularly offensive to men Of
real intelligence and refinement. Modesty is as ad-
mlrable trait in man as in a woman, and the
wise boy will find it to his distinct advantage to be
quiet and modest in manner.
1t is mistake for a boy to put too high an est
mate on his wisdom. He will find it to be to his
advantage to rely the far greater wisdom of those
much older than himself.
1t is a mistake for boy to feel at any time in
all the days of his boyhood that it is not his duty
be respectful and deferential his father and moth
er. The noblest men in the world have felt this to
be their duty not only in boyhood, but when their
boyhood days were far behind them. 1t is bad sign
when boy begins to show signs of disrespect to his
parents.-The Leader

THE MUSIC LESSON.

Ply away, dearie, ply away;
The little black notes some day
VIII answer what you please
To your fingers on the keys
When you ask them what they've got to say.
Dear little clumsy fingers now;
Dear puzzled eyes. go slow!
But fingers learn to race.
Never missing one its place
And eyes to eat up notes by the row.
Ply away, dearie, ply away,
A little bit better each day.
That's how people train
Fingers, eyes and brain,
A trained Wills nod to obey.

AN IMPORTANT POINT.

Archbishop Messmer made an important point

not be called private schools, He said: "They are
public schools in as true a sense as any schools in
the land. They the schools of the people,

Sergeant Marshall Makes Good

The Third regiment, NJ. N. G, took
first place in the team match at Camp
Lakeview with a score of 1928. The
First regiment was second with a
score OF 3,l74 and the Second regiment
third with score of 1892. Sergeant
H. D. Marshall, who represented
Princeton in the shoot, made scores as
follows: Marksman class, 126: sharp
shooter class, 254; expert class, 3l5.
A letter to Captain Galley from
Sergt. Marshall says that he MAR
shalD has been selected as one of the
ten men to go to Ohio next week and
shoot against the crack shots of that
state. This is an honor which not
only sergt. Marshall but Company G
OF Princeton should feel proud of.

The Ants Egg Trade,

Ants eggs come in the main from
Russia. They are the best food OBJ
tainable for goldfish, and canaries
and other Gagged birds thrive on them
wonderfully. They cost about so
cents a pint. In the forests of South
ern Russia ant nests abound. The
Russian ant hunter does not do his
own collecting there-he makes the
poor ants do it for him.
Selecting a hot, sunny day the man
first erects little piles of twigs, a.
dozen or more of them, near the thick
est colonies, and then he kicks open
all the nests in the neighborhood. The
ants know that their eggs, thus ex-
posed to the sun, would be made
sterile in a few hours, and they take
them up and hurry to place them un-
der the nearest shelter. The nearest
shelter is, of course, the little piles of
twigs. and under each of these are
soon heaped the eggs from a hundred
nests.
The egg hunter, after smoke and a
nap, has nothing to do but gather up
his spoil and dump it in his sack. He
ships the eggs, in hundred weight
bags, all over the world.

position in September.
Farmers Horses Only to Participate
in Races and No Entrance Fee
Will Be Called For.

Arrangements have been made by
the officers of the Mile Laos county
Agricultural association whereby a
fair will be held in Princeton on
Thursday, Friday and Saturday, Sep
TENDER 26, q and %. It has been de-
clded by the association that five hun
dred dollars will be offered in pre-
mlums for exhibits, and that a series
OF horse races will be held in which
none but farmers will be permitted to
take part. No entrance fee will be re-
CURED for these races.
This last decision of the society is
a meritoriOus one, as it excludes
those fellows who make the county
fair circuits with their fast horses and
carry off the money which rightful]y
belongs to the farmers.
If the farmers are treated rightly
they will put forth their utmost en-
deavors to make good showing in
every department at the county fair
they will take pride in raising the
finest products possible; but if out
siders are permitted to participate in
the horse races lack of interest
will naturally be the result.

Chippewas In Luck,

Each member of the Chippewas in
Minnesota within few years will re-
ceive from the federal government at
least $4,000, according to the report
of Former Senator William O'Neill of
Wisconsin, who for some years has
had charge of the timber operations
on coded lands in Minnesota. His
headquarters are at Cass Lake. His
report shows that during the past
three years APO, 900 feet of timber
has been cut from Indian lands valued
at So, 2O00, 900. Standing pine on ceded
lands that is sold totals 100000, 900
and there is 400, 1000, 900 feet standiug
and as yet unsold. There are in Min
nesota $500 Chippewa Indians. The
aggregate value of their ceded lands
and the timber left standing on them
is estimated at sl2,ooo,O00. Adding
the value of the allotted lands to this,
gives a wealth of $4,000 for each of
the $500 Indians.

WHY Discontinue the ROuteo

The disseminating of the mail route
between Milaca, Onamia and Cove is
causing no end Of comment and much
dissatisfaction in the north end of the
county. There never was time when
a daily mail service to Onamia was
more necessary than at present. The
new arrangement discommodes great
many people, and leaves large Sec
ton of country south of Onamia with
out any mail facilities whatever.
There is a splendid road between
Milaca and Cove, much the best high
way leading to Mile Laos lake, and
not single valid reason can be ad-
duced for disseminating the route.
The present arrangement for deliver
ing mail at Cove and Onamia is very
unsatisfactory to the business men of
those places and puts a damper on
new enterprises. The old route from
Milaca to Cove should be re-estab-
lished without delay.

Lunch was spread at IL O'Clock and
it was a happy gathering hat.partook
