out.of.poors culture,

This is the campmeeting season. Il
IL also the season for Chautauqua
gatherings. It is the season when
mountainside and lakeside, seaside
and riverside are dotted with culture
camps. Even the campmeeting in its
modern form runs as much to culture
Of the spirit as It does to aggressive
attacks upon sin. Thousands Of busy
persons are ayailing themselves Of
recreation and eaI.ure in combination.
This is a source Of agreeable summer
employment for college professors who
do not want to rust during the summer
season. and to whom a little work Of a
light order and under pleasant condi-
tions is an agreeable change from the
set routine OF the classroom and the
sedentary experiences. How much the
summer schools affect the educational
standards and cultural quality Of the
people. says the Baltimore American,

The Wealth Of the Sea.

In representing the wealth con.

pointed out that an acre OF good fish.
ing-ground will yield more food in a
week than an acre Of the best land
will in year. He also has drawn q
vivid picture Of a mountain Of cod"
l20 to 1SO feet in height, which for
two months in every year moves west
ward and southward, past the Norwei
gian coast. Every square mile of this
colossal column contains 120,0O000O
Of fishes, which. even on short rations,
consume no fewer than s4OOOO,oOO Of
herrings every week. The whole
catch of the Norwegian fisheries never
exceeds in a year more than half a
square mile Of this cod mountain,
and one weeks supply Of the herrings
needed to keep that area of cod flom
starving. The harvest Of the sea, re.
marks the New York Weekly. is truly

A great advance has been made n
preparing articles for shipment and for
exhibition in attractive ways. The old
siipshod methods have largely disap-
peared, as anyone who uses eyes. ears
and memory can testify. There is
hardly an article from the notion
counter of the department store TO the
varied array Of a modern grocery, or
even In the stalls Of market, which
is not SSrayed IN a manner indicating
some desire to make tempting ap-
pearance. Still there is much 10 learn.
The packing Of fruit and showing off
to good advantage is an art that
should be cultivated. and the matter is
considered Of such significance that
official notice is taken OF it. The Bos-
ton Herald says: There's nothing
that adds more to the attractiveness
Of box or crate Of fruit than a liberal
dressing OF green leaves Of one kind
or another. Our consul at Frankfort
contributes some useful Information on
this subject, telling Of the advantages
Of fern leaves for this purpose, not
only for the decoration, but for the
preservation Of the fruit. The fern
leaves, It seems, possess a preserva-
tive quality far beyond any other
greens. and they are extensively used
IN the foreign markets, not only to
pack fruits, but vegetables and dairy
products as well. More green decora-
tions would add much to the attrac-
tiveness of our fruit markets and
fruit stands, and they would help to
preserve the fruit at the same time
Public taste is increasing, and it is the
attractive newspaper "ad" and the at
tractively arranged shop which most
surely win customers.

Suggestions that the United States

Pretty nearly every other plan appears
TO have failed. Even when the little

fixing up an agreement all round to be
good there is no guarantee. against one
or another breaking the contract with
out the slightest serupIe. The United
States naturally is much ayerse to
anything looking Ike interference

cooperation with Mexico would be an
assurance OF disinterestedness and
