lesa MaIeate.

A teacher in one of the schools of
Berlin has given to the papers of that
city a composition written by one OF
the pupils in his school on the sub
ject, The KAISER" in the course of
which the young author says: prince
Wilhelm was born on the kaiser's
birthday. From the dome of the cas-
tie 101 salute shots were fired. The
old grandfather and old Wrangel
hoped into cab and went to the
schloss, and old Wrangel said: The
boy is all right, and the father made
a bow from the balcony, and 1t was
awful cold. And when the boy was
baptized his father held his watch in
front of the little fellows nose, and he
grabbed it and never let go again. be
cause he is Hohenzollern."

The "True Shamrock

The true shamrock" to an Irish
man, is the plant which is known by
that name around the spot of his or
his fathers birth. But the botanist
has as much trouble in identifying it
as he has in identifying the "mayfow-
er" of New England, name which is
applied in different localities to the
trailing arbutus, to the saxifrage, TO
the hepatica and to two or three other
plants. In spite of the fact that the
hailing arbutus is the mayfiower of
New England literature, the word is
much more commonly and popularity
applied to the saXifrage than II is to
the arbutus.

CONGENlAL WORK

A person in good health is likely

organs have been upset by wrong

Like many other girls alone in a
large city, lived at a boarding house.
For breakfast it was mush, greasy
meat, soggy cakes, black coffee, etc.
AFTER few months of this diet I
used to feel sleepy and heavy in the
mornings. My work seemed a ter
rible effort, and thought the work was
to blame-too arduous.

speak of a young fellow who went

II concluded If 1t would tide him

St. Patrick's Greatness

emerged from schools and flashed ovel
the charred remains of European civili
zation the sacred light of learning.
So, when the bearer of the nam,
Patrick, laborer and toiler though he
be, remembers that his title is de
scended from one of the proudest II
Rome, patrician, and thinks in his
poverty and humility of the ancieni
glory of his people, where is there ar
American who will not honor in him
the survival through the centuries o!
the pride and learning and achieve
ment of his ancestors, and join him
on st. Patrick's day in singing "All
Hail to st. Patrick?"

there would be grand national DEM
onstration in honor of George Wash
ington. But nothing occurred. On the
18th of March the city l was in was
decorated in green flags and Irish en-
blems fiuttered everywhere, the hotel
menu card was in green ink and the
evening paper came out in green.
Bands played in the streets, men
paraded, the city police force and mill
tary turned out, there were balls, ban
quets and public speaking. What
want to know is whether st. Patrick
or George Washington is the nations
patron saint"
Some idea of how powerful figure
st. Patrick was may be gained by
comparing the memory of st. Patrick,
born 1885 years ago, with that of
George Washington, who has been
dead little more than century.
st. Patrick went into ireland when
1t was plunged in the darkness of
paganism. He confronted a hostile
people with a dozen assistants. He
carried the new civilization with him.
He met fighting race and subdued it
single-handed.
His first work in reaching COM
munity was to preach the gospel in
the native tongue of the people. This
he did with Pauline fervor and fire
of conviction which fired the heart and
imagination of the people. You can
look at the work of any Irish priest
to-day and see the duplication of ST.
Patricks method. First a talk to the
people, then the building of a church,
then the erection of school, and
then the exhortation to practice the
Christian virtues, the succor of the
widow and the orphans, the weak the
fallen and the aged.
Patrick established universities
which, by the labor of the inmates,
were self-sustaining, and to which the
youth of England flocked by thousands.
Europe, during his lifetime, was in
confiagration. Hordes of the north,
Goths and Vandals, ravaged the south,
and the lamp of learning, extinguished
on the continent, burned brightly in
the cloisters of the monasteries and
universities of Ireland. Patrick trans
lated nothing into Irish. He taught
the Irish Latin and implanted, full
born, the civilization of Christian
Rome.
He introduced the arts and crafts,
developed agriculture, taught industry,
application and love of work. Institu-
tions of learning, churches and homes
of religious workers, training schools
and seminaries, were supported, not
by contributions, but by labor of the
inmates.
From idleness to industry, from
fighting to the arts of peace, from
Druidical worship to Christian prac.
tice and ideals, st. Patrick turned the
whole island by personal effort and
example, by incessant exhausting toll
He died as he lived, without the pos
session of groat.
The arts and letters, science and
. biblical knowledge which fled from the
continent took refuge in the famous
schools which made Durrow and Ar
ragh the universities of the west. To

EDUCATIONAL
FARM PLAN.
Pennsylvania Railroad VIII Es-
tabIiSh One On The Delaware
Maryland Peninsula.

The announcement that an expert
mental farm is to be established at
Bacon, DEL, by the Pennsylvania Rail-
road for the benefit of the farmers of
the Delaware peninsula, extending
through the States of Delaware, Mary
land and Virginia, is an item of the
utmost Importance not only to the agri-
culturists of the Eastern Shore, but to
the farming and transportation interests
of the entire country and to the public
generally. President James McCrea.
always attentive and widely active in
promoting the production of tonnage and
the creation of traffic for the great sys-
TEN committed to his care. it is said.
visited this peninsula, generally known
as the Eastern Shore. and noticed but
about one-half the acreage was under
cultivation and knew that the cities of
the country were pressing in their de-
mands for greater supplies of the very
articles these idle acres would profitably
produce.
The land for this experimental and
educational farm has been purchased by
the Railroad Company and superin-
tendent of ability has been appointed
who will demonstrate the later and best
methods of cultivation for the farmers
of the peninsula.
With present population of nearly
300. 900 people it is deemed possible to
double it in few years through improv-
ing the productive qualities of the soil
and the great profits to be derived from
the improved cultivation. The railway
company is setting an example to all the
other railway lines of the country, and
through its facilities for including more
dense population in the farming sections
it builds up its own traffic and renders
most important and valuable service
to the country in thus lessening the con-
gestion of population in the cities and
providing additional food products for
those who dwell in them.
There are probably fair profits to rail-
way trunk lines IN transporting settlers
from the Eastern coast to the Far West,
but if those thus transported were prof.
itably employed on the lands adjacent
to the lines which transport them the
profits from their labor to the railways
which carry them away would be a
thousand per cent. greater in the course
of five years. Another home establish
ed in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana.
another SO acres of land put under culti-
walton in either of the three States is
far better for the States and far more
profitable for the railways of those
States than the mere transportation Of
100 persons to the Far Western country.
The Eastern and Middle Western
States possess uncultivated lands today
that could yield profit to 10. 600, 600 more
farmers, and the productions of those
lands would furnish the railway COM
panies of the sections named with mil
lions of tons of additional freight.
