sciences more than the ordinary frills
of the day.
The aim of the ideal rural school
should be to make the intelligent citi-
zen and farmer-not an elocutionist,
good speller, a grammarian, singer
or organ or piano player.
There is no better drill for the
mind, and none are so young they
cannot take in such instruction, than
the teaching of natural science-such
as chemistry, botany, plant life and
so on. Arithmetic can be taught by
teaching how to keep an account
book how to tell the cost of produc-
ing farm products-such as milk,
eggs, grain, meat and vegetables.
Ali this can be done sufficiently
without big text books, elaborate ap-
paratusand costly appointments. All
that Is needed is the competent teach

"system" does not turn out the in
structors required.
Hence, to get what is needed the
colleges, such as Columbia, and Nor

A "REBELlIOUs WIFE"

The current issue of the american
Magazine has for its opening number
1.-The Confessions of a Rebellions
Wife," We have no reason to doubt
that the story is true, and that it tells
the tale of the tragedy of love as en-
acted in many another home.
An ideal courtship; genuine love
marriage. The young lover and hus-
band deferring in everything to his
sweetheart and bride, and the radient-
ly happy young woman idolizing her
beau ideal of man and ambitions to
anticipate his every want. Then the
cares, anxieties, demands of business
increase. They grow more insistant
and imperious. The young husband
becomes absorbed in his business.
How can he help it1 Success means
so much to him, and he is bound to
succeed.
Slowly but surely, and all uncon-
sciously, too, he turns from wife to
business. The love he once lavished
upon her he now gives to his business.
She notices the change. She grows
cold, cynical, careworn and her life is
embittered. The end is nervous
breakdown, premature-perhaps
suicide-grave, or, more frequently,
the divorce court.

SOME PLUCK ABOUT TIM.

The old gentleman, in his heart,
did not object to the young man as a

kind of gentleman who like to raise
objections first, and then reach an
agreement as though confering fa-
vor. When the young man called he
was ready for him.

HOW CONES FOR ICE CREAM ARE MADE.

The man at Wonderland Park who
runs the stand at which cones for Ice
cream are not only filled with the
frozen custard, but are made, was
talking to friend.
"The people like to see how the
cones are made" he said. GIVE
doubled the sale just because I show
how it is done. They are made from
a batter of -four, sugar and eggs, and
are first baked just like wafles, only
they are thinner. Then, before they
are crisp they are nodded by simply
rolling them about a wooden cone
and allowed to harden. This girl can
turn out 100 an hour on three grid
dies and keep it up all day.
"But talk about people liking ice
cream cones. you ought to see the
Mexicans go after 'em. was at the
first American amusement park that
was opened in the City of Mexico.
The people simply went ice-cream
crazy from the first. When we ran
out of ice. cream we sold the cones
alone, and got as high as IS cents for
'em, and could not make them fast
enough to fill the demand. Their
popularity, too, has lasted, but now
there are plenty of griddles to be had
there and they are no longer curl
osity. "-MinneGbolas Journal.

MOTHERS AS MATCHMAKERs.

Ifin the village of Tigara, In North
western Alaska, one sees young man
beating out piece of metal and fash
Joining fnger-ring, it is usually in
tended for some young woman; but
1t remains for the meeting of the two
mothers to arrange matters.
The two families may be living
close together, yet the mother of the
young man will call on her neighbor
and tell her how she has intended to
be more neighborly, but she has been
so busy.
The neighbor will declare how de-
lighted she Is to see her.
Then the visitor begius to tell how
good her son is. Further, they never
go hungry, as her son is such fine
hunter that he brings home plenty of
food.
The girls mother, in return, dilates
on her daughters skill as cook, and
how good she is at sewing.
1t is finally decided that the young
man shall enter the girls family on
sort of trial. If the girl turns up her
nose and makes faces he may as well
leave, as the match will never amount
to anything; but should she greet
him with an occasional smile, and
allow him to sit by her side in the
evening, it will all be clear sailing,
and they will unite as husband and
wife.

So Jeanne, in great state, was rec

For a few days she had hesitated

HIS GREATEST TREASURE.

A certain shepherd boy was keep

and because his heart was happy, he
sang so loudly that the surrounding
hills echoed back his song. One
morning the king, who was out hunt
Ing, spoke to him and said: "Why
are you SO happy, my boy?"
"Why should I not be happy?"
answered the boy. "Our king is not
richer than l."
Indeed" said the king, "pray
tell me of your great possessions"
The shepherd boy answered: "The
sun in the bright blue sky shines as
brightly upon me as upon the king.

the grass in the valley grow and bloom

THINGS EVERYBODY KNOWS.

The antique assertion that Figures
won't lie" is lying figure of speech.
A man will confess to one bad habit
for the purpose of hiding dozen
others.
A woman may claim to be as young
as she likes, but she doesn't always
look it.
It's simply impossible to love thy
neighbor as thyself if he is an anna
teur cornet player.
1t takes an expert female shopper
to get rid of dollars worth OF energy
in an attempt to save two cents.

KINDHEARTEDNEss.

The gingham- -shirted boy had made
a break to pass the ticket-seller at the
circus entrance, but that gentleman
had caught him and rudely thrust
him back.
"Poor little DEVIL" said a seedy
looking man in the crowd. "IfI had
the money I'd buy him ticket my
SELF"
The crowd looked sympathetic, but
said nothing, while the boy sobbed as
if his heart would dissolve.
"I've only got a nickel, little fel-
ler," went on the seedy looking one,
"an' that won't do you no good.
Say" he continued, turning sudden
ly to the crowd, "let's do one good
act in Our lives. Let's buy him a
ticket"
It looked for minute as if a COL
lection was to be started, but a benev-
ent-looking old gentleman nipped it
in the bud by slipping a half-dollar
into the hand of the boy, who prompt
ly disappeared into the tent.
"I thank you a thousand times for
that kind act, sir,' said the seedy-
looking man.
"You seem to take quite an inter-
est in the little fellow" remarked the
benevolent one.
"Well 1 should think ought to, q"
answered the seedy-looking man,
proudly. "That's the only son I've
got !''

HYpRopHoB1A A RARE DISEASE.

An exchange says that "Time
was when a rabid dog was rarity,
but that with the development of hu'
man imagination such dog is get
ting to be commonplace. Yet it is
believed the dog has changed less
than the imagination" There is
probably more truth in this statement
than the average person will admit.
Although there are we'll nigh ninety
millions of persons in our country
and innumerable thousands of dogs,
to quiet the fears of timid ones and
also to do proper justice to the canine
the fact should be spread abroad that
there are fewer deaths from rabies
among our kind than there are among
it from almost any other known dis
ease. In fact were the truth to be
told, it might be found that more
lives-many more-have been saved
through the intelligence and devotion
of dogs than have been lost or even
menaced by the bite of a rabid dog.
Instances of life-saving acts on the
part of CANNES are by no means In
frequent. .-As6ury Park Journal.
