A Striking Monument.

Nowhere in the world can be founo
a more striking monument than that
erected on the shores Of Lake Issy-
Kul. in central Asia, in honor of the
Russian General Prjevalski, a famous
explorer of that region. The tomb is
followed out in the summit of a tut

lake, and the monument consists of an
rough hawn block OF gray
granite, twenty-five feet high, over
which is thrown a chart of central
Asia.

up a mans home and then ask him to support a person
who declines to live with him.
AS a rule, women are selfish. One reason for 1t Is that
Il woman who does the same work as a man gets only
half the pay for it and SO the women want the men to
even it up. The tendency of late years Is for humanity
to become more and more selfish. Another thing to be
deplored Is the great number of suits for breach Of
promise. 1t looks as though she had a market price set
on her affections when she asks for money because her
love is sighted. Whenever a man is sued for breach OF
promise he should feel thankful that he did not marry
the woman. If he has to pay her money he can feel that

There would be so much selfishness among either men

wealth. do others or they will do YOU is too much the
business motto of to-day. We all belong to the human
family and we should treat our fellows more as brothers
and sisters. If we did so life would be more worth the
living than it is at present.

If there are those who do not want to accept the Cos

Industrial Righteousness or industrial strife. The call
of the gospel is to those who love righteousness and hate

success of righteousness does not depend on the number
of those who indorse it, but on the loyalty Of those who
appeal to it. The code Of Jesus applied to industries will
not help men to get rich and ut the same time to treat
other men as enemies. But men whose first ambition
Is to make friends of all other men. as they have OPP
portunity and as they are able, will find with the wealth
of such friendship there will be added all the wealth

gospel offers industrial peace, men can secure Il 1t is

DIVORCE AND ALIMoNY.
BY Margaret S. Harris.

AS a rule 1t Is true that when a woman gets
a divorce from her husband she wants hin
still to support her. The judges do wrong in
encouraging such actions. In some special
cases alimony is ell right, hnt In NEST It is
not, especially when there are no children.
A woman should have too much pride and
self-respect to want a man whom she will not
live with to support her. 1t is unfair to break

with the government as a fourth party, whose
duty it is to see that all rights are respected
and all responsibilities are faithfully dis
charged. The Interests of these three parties
are coordinate. There is no defense OF one
party against other parties. A recognition
of the equal rights OF the three parties does

opened by roll call the superintend-

Many failed to respond and were
marked absent.
The roll call was followed by sing
ing "The West Virginia Hills" as
composed by D. B. Purinton.
Prof. Kerns was given the subject
of Libraries. He spoke of the
growth of school libraries in this
State during the past ten years.
showing that since 1897 the librar-
les have grown from S,O26 volumes
to 1868 volumes to and includ-
ing 1906. He told how the district
schools in Illinois raised money to
purchase books for the libraries in
the way of holding literary entertain
ments and charging admission. He
also gave his idea of books and
their effect-story for idealism;
poetry for contrast, essay for reason
and thought. -
Following Prof. Kerns,s address,
Prof. Lee took up. the sub ject, ENG

This recitation was followed by j. G.

Taft,s Speech.

Secretary Taft made himself thor
oughly understood in his Ohio speech.
He told the people frankly where he
stands, what his policy is and what
he would do. If he be elected Presi-
dent OF the United States. He left
no room for doubt. He has beliefs.
he has platform, and he announced
them, and then in effect stated that
1t was for the people to say whether
he should serve them.
Mr.. Taft clearly and concisely de-
Tended in mastery way the nation
al administration and its policies,
pledging himself to faithfully and
vigorously continue those policies, If
elected President.
The Hepburn bill is defended by
him. He states that 1t gives
strength, direction and effectiveness
to the Interstate commerce commits
sion in its work of adjusting and
making equal and fair shipping rates
and facilities. Though he makes no
law, yet it does not prove itself amply
sufficient to deal with railroad mat
ters fully The Hepburn law itself
needs amendment he says to bring
about greater equality in rates, car
supplies and the like, and Mr.. Taft
stands out squarely against car dis
elimination and railroad ownership
of mines, industries and interests
that do not pertain to the strict OPP
Grafton of railroads.
Mr.. Taft distinctly favors tariff
revision, but only such as will en-
courage American industry and pro-
tect American wages. He believes
in capital but operated in a fair and
ftist and honest manner for the pub
lie welfare and not for the purpose
of robbing. the masses or making life
burdensome to them. He points our
the wide difference between revision
of the tariff by protectionists and
tariff tinkering by free traders. He
thinks reimbursement is necessary as
labor conditions are changed from
those of ten years ago, when the
present tariff schedules were adopt
ed. and all who believe in the protec-
tive principle must agree with him.
The platform as announced by him
will certainly prove a popular one, If
the people give him chance to carry
it out. as It is in the highest interests
of the people in general, and. with
such strong man to execute it
there could be no failure on its part

Prof. shaw's address was interesting.

inson was asked Co open the discus
sion on the round table topics, What
about the teachers social life? What
about parties? Balls? Religious
and political meetings? Miss Robin
son briefly touched on each of the
questions giving her belief especially
on political meetings, declaring she

which she did briefly but in a most
interesting manner 1t was ascer-
tanned that but few rural teachers
have ever held parents day in their
schools.
What can be done to wake care
less parents?" was the subject given
Mr.. c. C. Keys. Mr.. Keys asserted
that this was the most important of
all questions with which teachers
have to deal. He made a very in.
teresting talk on the subject.

Ente of the Hog Pen.

People who have hog pens should
bear in mind that the question of be-
ing able to have them in the future
depends largely on the condition they
keep them in. In many Instances
where they are kept scrupulously
clean. they do not prove so very
obnoxious. but in neglected cases they
are fearful nuisances and may easily
be abated by being declared such.
While they are doubtless helpful
to a number of families, yet there is
complaint against them on the part
of property investors None know
this better than real estate men en-
gagged in selling property 10 men who
look upon Clarkshurg realty invest
ments with high favor. Frequently,
has the sale of property been almost

There is something wrong and the

George c. Mcintosh has resigned
as editor of the Charleston Mail
Some time ago George begged for
peace among Republican papers.
The Telegram told him to turn prodi-
gal and come back into the fold. But
he refused, and now he has gone
wandering away again. The dis
patches say the reason he resigned
was that the owners OF the papers
desired the Mail to take a certain at
titude on the governorship. George
could not do that and so he soon got
out of peace and harmony with, his
own. George is certainly having a
rough row to hoe, all because he
wants to dictate the terms of the
peace he seeks. Back to the mines
in Fayette county he has gone, where
it is hoped, he may find things to his
liking little while at least.
