Japanese Boat in Chicago.

While peaceful citizens on both
sides of the word are reading about
the troubles between the United
States and Japan, few Of Chicago's
1000, 900 are aware that a japanese
boat Is here.
Yet nevertheless it is true. A jap
anese vessel bearing the formidable
name of Hoomaru is quartered in
the Jackson Park launch house and
needs only a few guns, a new motor
and a searchlight in order to take at
least some part in any hostilities that
might arise between the two coun-
tries.
The Hoomaru. which is about
twenty feet long, belongs to the jap
anese Government, and carried pass
myers on the lagoon during the
Worlds Fair in connection with the
Japaneae exhibit. 1t has Lever been
removed, but remains in drydock
within a stones throw Of the wooded
island. Hundreds Of persons In row.
boats pass the curious craft daily
and wonder why 1t is and why it Is
there.-Chicago Daily News.

THE e NAME.

That was a cruel name, my lad, you gave
me when we parted.
The four winds caught the sound of it
and threw it to the world;
There's never breaking twig or leaf nor any
echo started
But sends it back to me again, an evil
stone new hurled.
There was another name I had, a fair name
INC dear to me.
CMind you how the summer noon closed
blue about the hillD
Both my hands within your own, your keen
face near to me,
The gold O sun and scent O. earth-oh,
warm and sweet-and still!
That was a cruel name, my lad, you gave
me at you turning.
The very stones you trod on cried it TO
= me as you went,
And every breeze and every bird was over
quick in learning
IT'S blown to me, It's sun TO me, till all
my heart is rent.
That was another name I had. a fair name
and dear to me.
Mind you how the lazy sheep stood
white against the skye
Both my hands within your own, your keen
face near to me
O lad, I'm prayin' tbs that name that
death will call me by.

Lieutenant Commander Cleland

Condensed Milk.

And speaking of cows, it is re-
lated that a Baltimorean who was not
used to the ways Of the country went
into the suburbs to visit a friend who
had taken up amateur farming with
two COWS, a bee and a hoe. At the
table they had excellent milk for gen.
eral purposes and astonishingly good
cream for the coffee and cereals.
The visitor expressed his admiration,
and then inquired:
(Which of your COWS gives cream?'
"The sorrel," was the prompt
reply. "But we have a neighbor
down the street whose COWS don't
give anything but condensed milk
"Indeed?"
Absolutely true. 1t is an inven-
ton of his own. He gets the con-
densed milk by putting six COWS into
a stall big enough for only one.
And the visitor returned to Baltl-
more breathing reverently:
Marvellous! Marvellous! I will
never again question the wisdom Of
nature."-Baltimore News.

The Country Editor.

1t is a well-established fact that
in no other vocation Of life are more
business tact, more knowledge of hui
man nature, more push and energy
and firmness required than in
the successful management Of a coun-
try newspaper, and in no other busI-
ness is philanthropy so systematical-
ly cultivated and practiced.
Ordinarily a country editor, a.
Mr.. H. G. Miller observes, is a man
Of limited means, and in the very
nature of things the highest degree
Of business sagacity Is required to
make both ends meet. The gather
ing Of news and the writing Of edi-
torials are essential requisites in get
ting out a paper, but they constitute
only a small part Of the duties de-
volving upon a country editor. He
must, of course, produce a good edi-
torial page and present the happen
ings Of the community in an attract
i've shape; but, above all, he must
be a business man and never lose an
opportunity for getting a new SUBJ
scriber, an advertisement or a piece
Of Job work.
While the business and the editor
ial departments Of the big dailies are
separate and distinct, the country
editor must of necessity take care Of
both, and he almost always acquits
himself Of the task successfully and
with becoming pride and dignity.
Unlike his colleague of the wealthy
city paper, who with all his ability
and brilliant attachments is, after all,
but a cog in a large wheel driven by
a power " which he has not the
slightest control, the country editor
is the whole thing. But in order
to be successful he must be familiar
with the affairs Of his paper to its
smallest detail, sweep out the office,
build the fire, solicit business, collect
bills, report a big fire or a sermon and
editorially discuss the questions of
the day with equal facility.

No Need For a Poor Farm.

Carver's town farm is now no more.
Not because the town cannot afford
to support a retreat for the needy,
but for the very good reason that
there are no needy cases to be sup
ported or cared for. This was not
always the case, for only a few years
ago the town had as we'll populated
a poor farm as any town of it's size
in the State, but one by one the en-
cradle inhabitants have passed away,
and to-day the body of Mrs. Rebecca
Churchill, the last survivor. was laid
away with due ceremony in the little
burying ground. For years she had
been the only dependent occupant IF
the farm.
Now that there are no poor to be
housed and fed, the farm will be
closed and the occupants of the little
town believe that the closing will be
for good and all.-Carver Correspond
ence Boston Journal.

Brown-our Aunt Lie. 1t ans
nounced that q sum Of money had
been deposited with the law firm
whose name headed the paper, to be
kept in trust and the income to se
paid monthly to her or her heirs "for-
ever." The name of the donor was
not given, but the paper said that this
was done as q small return for the
sunshine scattered by a heroine, not
Of an hour. but of every day, too gen.
uine to be conscious Of her heroism.
Aunt Lie did not question the
document for a moment. She imme-
diately reached for her crutches and
hobbled to the elevator. With shin
Ing eyes she entered the children's
ward.
Help me pick out my baby!" she
cried.
But between the waits she could
not decide-she wanted them all.
Each was lovely in her eyes.
At last she reached the end crib.
Here's mine" she whispered.
The nurse lifted up a nameless,
newborn girl, with a crippled arm.
That's why I'll take her-she was
sent just for met" said Aunt Lie.

me, but this little one will under
