French Schools.

The quality of the secular fnstruc.
ton in the French schools seemed to
me extraordinarily high. 1t happened.
for example, that l was taken into a
classroom where q lesson In English
was being given to some French boys
Of sixteen, mostly the sons Of opera
tives. The exercise was conducted In
excellent English. which the pupils
seemed to speak almost as readily as
the teAchey, and the point under dis
cussion when l visited the class was
one which would have puzzled Har-
yard freshmen. 1t was the distinction
In meaning between the words priest
a Catholic ecclesiastic; clergyman-an
Anglican, and minister-a dissenter.
In American schools. or, rather. In the
results OF the instruction there afford

teaching OF any foreign language
Which compared in efficiency with the
teaching of English in secondary
schools throughout France. And to ali
appearances this was only one exam

ty of French teaching in ali its branch

Chinese Sarcasm.

Once in awhile you meet common
Chinaman who has some of the native
wit of his country. One such has a

customer: You no pay? Then you pa

''pape" tiger" and he replied, "Oh, in
China a paper tiger is a blackguard
who blows much, but is harmless!'
He added: When a man Is very proud
of himself, what Americans call stuck
up we compare to a rat falling into
scale and weighing itself. When a
Chinaman overdoes thing we say he
is hunchback making bow The

It was said in the Norton family tina
Uncle Hiram had no ear for music, as
he failed to appreciate the vocal ct
forts of his niece Margaret. But IL

Her mother talks of selling little OF
her mining stock for Margaret's sake.
Uncle Hiram's keen old face wore &
mutinous expression.
"Have to practice two, three hours

"Oh, yes" said the venturesome rel

Samoa's TslkinQ Man.

Samoa's talking man. or tolafan, Is
a character. All the affairs Of state
of the village in which he holds Office
are carried upon his shoulders. In or
binary he Is the chief adviser, per-
suader, convincer and re3trainer of the
leading chiefs. Having the gift of elo.
quence, he makes the most of it. lie
enjoys immunity from many things,
He cannot be spoken Of in ordinary
terms. If it should be necessary to
speak of his eyes or his mouth or his
limbs, special honorable words must
be used, words which attach to him
alone and have never been applied to
the personal parts Of ordinary men.
AS he stands to deliver hts soft, per-
suasive, mellifuous oratory, with staff
of Office In his hand, any one can see
that he Is man of great Importance,
or if this is not apparent from his at.
titude 1t may be gathered from the at
tention paid to his utterances by gray
haired chiefs and by youth and maid
ems. II the talking man Is clever
fellow and understands his business
he is the chief ruling power in his
tribe, although the nominal headship
Is always vested in a chief or patri
archal figurehead.

Queer Feeding.

"Come and watch me feed my star
fish,
The curator of the aquarium led the
reporter to a tank where half dozen
starfish tripped over the sandy bottom
on slim brown fingers.
Scrub time, boys" he said, and he
dropped into the tank six mussels.
The fish ran to the mussels. Each ap
piled his stomach to the hinge at the
back of the shell. Silence and immO
bility ensued.
1.-THE gastric juice of the starfish,
said the curator, sis now melting the
hinges of flesh that hold the musse
shells together. All, look, there's one
melted now There's another. It's the
most powerful gastric juice in the
world"
One by one. their hinges destroyed
the mussel shells opened, and into the
openings the starish thrust their stom
achs. More silence, more immobility.
Then, little plumper at the heart
the starfish went tripping daintily off
but the mussel shells lay open AND
empty on the sand.-Cincinnat En-
Ouirer

Old Time Drunkenness.

In reviewing 1.-THE Early Married
Life of Maria Josepha, Lady Stanley
the London Spectator comments on the
light in which drunkenness was re-
garded at the beginning Of the nine
teenth century There was christen-
Ing Of twins and rejoicing among the
neighbors, tenants and laborers. CAL
the guests, says Maria, were as
drunk as l ever had the pleasure of
seeing any one" Among the laborers,
however, that extent of intoxication
was not reached which causes men to
be swine"
Lady Sheffield, who received this ac-
count Of the festivities, replies: Il
would have, given great deal to be
present. There is nothing l love so
much as such sort of festivities, where
one has the satisfaction of knowing
that one makes ones friends happy as
well as drunk" In London, she de-

The Rain Was Hot.
Mrs. Goitt had been waiting for 4
week or more to give her rear porch q
good scrubbing, but she was always
afraid of mourning the keen diSpleas

who, it seemed, were never OF Their
porch and who would set all the drip
pings Of her scrubbing operation.
When it rained, though, Mrs. Goitt
saw what she thought was her oppor-
tunity. The people down below surely
would not be out on the porch during
the rainstorm, and all the water that
dripped down would be attributed ia
the rain. She filed a bucket with boil.

of soap and got busy.
But she had reckoned wrong, for the
people down below were on their porch
enjoying the shower. In a minute Mrs
Goitt heard woman's voice below
saying: "Why, Martha, the rains com

And then Martha observed, with a
gasp: "Yes. And, oh, heavens, had you

Is His "ShalI the People Rulee"
Simply ga Local Issuep"
Congressman Henry Sherman BOu-
tell Of Chicago, commenting on Mr..
Bryan's speech in Iowa, says:
Mr.. Bryan's question, "Shall the peo-
pie rule?' implies that somewhere in
this country the people do not rule.
The only States where the people do
not rule are the States that are ex-
pected to give overwhelming maJorities
for the Democratic ticket. Perhaps
Mr.. Bryan thinks that his question Is
purely "a local ISSUE" If he is sim
cere, 1 challenge him to make a speech
in VickSburg, Miss, on Government
by the People" Let him repeat one Of
his famous anti-imperialiSt speeches,
simply changing three words, substitute
ing mississippi" for philippines" and
'tblack brothers" for ''brown brothers."
Let him suggest that we have as chair
man of his meeting John Sharp Will
iams, leader Of the Democrats in Con-
gress, and as vice-chairmen the other
members Of the Congressional delega-
ton from Mississippi
And after he has made his speech
in Vicksburg, If he shall have escaped
the rule Of the people in that COM
munity, I dare Mr.. Bryan to repeat
his grafton ON popular government in
Charleston, s. c., with Senator Till
hot Of NJ
Bryan's sentiments have a purely geo
graphical sincerity. His epigrams and
startling conundrums are especially de-
signed to meet local demands. OF this
nature are all his views on tariff and
taxation.
Mr.. Bryan's proposition that every
time a trust is formed a tariff sched
ule should be repealed, and every time
a trust is dissolved a new duty should
be added, is too funny even for comic
opera.
If on March 4 next Mr.. Bryan should
become President, with a Democratic
Congress in both houses, and should
actually place upon the statute books
the financial and economic vagaries de-
uvered by him in his speech Of last
Friday, it would plunge the nation into
bankruptcy and bring on industrial
chaos. If he should begin by repeating
the duty on sugar to punish the sugar
trust, he would upset the national
finances by losing S6O,0O0,OOO a year
in revenues, and would stir UP revo-
luton In Louisiana, Utah, Colorado
and Michigan. Then, If he should re-
peal the duty on cotton goods, because
some hustling manufacturers Of New
England or the Carolinas were dump
ing goods In China in rivalry with Eng
land and Germany, he would divert
other millions from the treasury and
invite still further industrial ruin.
But, Of course, Mr.. Bryan would do
none of these things, any more than
he will invade the solid South and sum-
mon the cohorts of Democracy to the
defence of the Constitution with the
battle cry "Shall the People Rule"
Mr.. Bryan simply does not mean what
he says. What he utters with Chad
bandian JUNCTION In the North he repudi-
ates with Pecksniffian duplicity In the
South
