TWO OF ROYAL BLOOD COME TO
WELLESLEY.
Will BE Educated by the imperial
Government Which Desires Them
to Learn All They Can
in America.

Wellesley.-Although it is in nowise
part of the curriculum of Wellesley
college 1t has fallen to the lot Of two
two little Chinese maidens into the
mysteries of dressing according to
the accepted ideas of fashionable so
ciety.
All the gowns, furbelows, hats and
lingerie for all sorts of occasions,
toilet for evening receptions, have
been spread out before the astonish-
ed gaze of the little orientals, and it
will be for them to decide, after CIV
ing the subject mature thought, per-
haps writing back to China, whether
they shall discard their own flowing
robes of silk and at the start become
Americanized in dress. For these two
girls are to remain in this country till
they can take back to China all that
we can give them in the way of edu-
cation and social refinement.
Never before has Wellesley been
called upon to look after the welfare
of so distinguished students. They
are Miss Chi Che Wang, who comes
from Soochow, and Miss Ping Hsia
HUI, whose home is in neighboring
Chinese town. Both girls are related
to the royal family of China. Official
ly the Chinese government is their
sponsor. They came to town with
more escorts and vastly more trunks
than ordinarily accompany half
dozen girls.
In the first place the recently retir-
ed Chinese minister, who grew up as
a boy at Amherst, played first on the
baseball team and, following gradua-
tion became chairman of the alumni
association, told the bespectacled
statesmen in Pekin that the girls
should be sent to America by all
means, and that they would find
Wellesley a typical high-class estab-
lishment, where the fashions of China
and America would be blended so
gradually that the girls would become
little Americans quite without know
ing it.

granite which marks the final resting
place of Henry Price, the founder of
duly constituted Masonry in America.
Considerably more than 100 years
ago, when the father of Masonry died,
his remains were inferred in the old
cemetery where they remained until
a few years ago, when. through the
influence of the late Albert Fessenden,
the body was removed from the old
cemetery, where it's presence had been
well nigh forgotten, and above the
new place of interment there has been
erected by the grand lodge the digni-
fed monument now an object of rever-
ence by many members of the craft

the action of time and exposure, had
become fractured almost it's entire

with a circular top. The inscription
upon that ancient slate tablet. which,
when the new stone was placed in po-
sition, was given a conspicuous po-
sition in the grand lodge room, is as

TO MARK THE 'KERcHlEF.
Use of Small indelible Stamp Is the
Best Method.

Marking handkerchiefs with o sim.

pecially when the washing Is
sent to the laundress outside Of the
house. A good plan to avoid this Is
to mark with both or all three initials.
or. better still. with the entire name
This. however. is unpleasantly con.
spicuous.
A better way IS TO secure small
indelible stamp of the name. and to
stamp the center of each handkerchief
so that the marking is never in sight
except when it is needed.
Another plan, adopted in family
of three daughters is to use a system
Of eyelets in the corner-one eyelet
for the eldest daughter. two for the
second. three for the third. The plan
works like charm. for the family

are. of course. easily recognizable

cultivation as to get the best advan-
tage of these latter processes, and this
we can do by growing to a greater ex-
tent what are known as the legumin-
Gus crops, such as clover, cowpeas,
soy beans, winter vetch, etc.
There is a class Of bacteria known
as nitrogen fixers," rather than gath
erers, which take the free nitrogen
from the air and store IL up. 1t is
through the operation of bacteria that
the potential energy in the soil is con-
verted into plant food for the use of
the growing crop. The conditions are
most favorable for their work in warm
weather and 1t is in such weather that
the loosening of the soil by cultivation
should be carried on, in order to best
facilitate their operation. 1t should
be remembered that humus is the
basis of all the valuable nitrogen in
the soil, and that the more humus we
get into the soil the more potential nj
trogen there will be therein. The best
farmer, on the whole, is he
who most effectually provides the
conditions that convert inert into
active nitrogen. These conditions
are furnished most completely by the
application most completely by the
application of stable manure, in prop
er quantity and in the prop
er manner. AS it cannot generally be
in sufficient quantity other agencies
must be resorted to; but, owing to the
increased expense OF commercial fer
tilizer rich in the heterogeneous ele-
ments, it is necessary to secure the nj
trogen in some other way, purchasing
only the needed amount Of mineral
fertilizer. To this end the growing of
clover and other leguminous crops, as
has been said, should be pracuced
more and more extensively.

VALUE OF THE
PURE BRED RAM
BY Prof. F. b. Munford.

The greatest mistake one ever
makes in breeding any class of live
stock is to use a male of mixed or
cross breeding, no matter how good
an individual he may be. The best
quality an animal can possess is pre-
potency, the ability to fix his charac-
teristics upon his offspring. No mat
ter what good qualities he may pos
sess, if he has not the power to trans
nit these good qualities to his off
spring, he is of no value as a breed
ing animal, and we have learned by
experience to look for this prepotency
In pure-bred registered animals. By
a long series of breeding and selec-
tion there has become fixed in these
pure-bred animals the ability to trans
nit the desirable qualities that we
want in domestic animals, and if we
want these desirable qualities, we
must look first to the ability of the
his offspring, and you need never look
for this ability in an animal of mixed
breed, because experience shows in
SO cases out of hundred that such
animals have no prepotency; they are
likely to produce animals inferior to
the common ewes you would use in
these cases and are also likely to
breed back to some former unim-
proved type. There is a very strong
reason. then, for using a pure-bred
ram in these cases and for using no
other kind.
