course of the young king, and asks

temptation with the legions OF heaven

for wealth, for the universal sway Of
his septer or for the great intellectual
culture. But these he ignores. In
stead. with an expression Of a great
inspirations and clearness of percep-

heart. This pleases God, and he gave
his request with a promise that he
will add thereto the things that Solo,

of notice that Solomon asked for the
fundamental and general things, the

and it is this thing which I wish you
to consider at this time.
The understanding heart is that
moral and spiritual institution which
gives us a spiritual GENERALIZATION
and arrays US on the spiritual side
of things. 1t is that which registers
in consciousness the sense that we
are spiritual citizens of a spiritual
universe, and gives the direct denial
to materialistic view of life. 1t is
here we confront the picture of i'm
mortal destiny, infinite potential
ties, and eternal possibilities. And
it is this vision which inspires to
the highest attachments.
And, too, it is the understanding
heart which percives the relative
values of things, and in the measure
of such values places the valued in
terests of life in their proportions
1t is the thing that prevents disjoint'
ed and deformed lives, and triumphs
over passing failures, by learning
their lessons, and approaching theil
comparative unimportance in the
great sweep of things.

the girls did many clever stunts on the
different apparatus, the best OF which,
perhaps, was the serpetine climbing
of the ladder. Particular good form
was displayed in the jumping and
vaulting, also in the many different
oscillatory movements executed on the
horizontal bar. Besides this there
we're the usual exercises on the stall,
and parallel bars. The audience was
also interested in the floor work of
the Swedish gymnastics.
Miss McLaurin deserves a great deal
of credit for the good she has accom-
plished with her gymnastic girls his
year. They are not to be outrivaled
anywhere in tho state; and the school
should be very proud of them-S. l.. |.

ing healthy and athletic girls to the
state, and we hope the good work will
continue indefinitely.

Annual Exhibit Of Work.
Monday at 10 a. m. the annual ex-
hibit of work done in the school in the
various departments was viewed by a
large number of visitors who were
greatly pleased with the fine showing
made. In the commercial department
sets Of bookkeeping were displayed
giving evidence of proficiency on the
part of the students. In the typewrit-
ing room some excellent samples Of
rood work were shown, and in the
art room there was a fine exhibition of
charcoal, pencil, pen and ink and wa
ter color drawings. The sewing room
proved very attractive to the ladies
and was proof that the young ladies
have profted greatly from their in
struction in this most valuable art.
The Stenography department was
quite interesting, illustrating the skill
of the students in taking notes in
short hand, and the Domestic science
department proved from the display
of dainty cooking that the students
had learned much in this important
/! and most useful art. The work shop
! was very interesting and among the
exhibits of work done by the pupils
were some handsome pieces Of furni-
| ture and fine drawings. The exhibit
was very creditable and shows
| the manual training feature of the
school is not only training the pupils
| but making them efficient.

THE RAT KING.
His Method Was Successful, but Il
Remains q Secret

Remains Secret.
IN the early sixties of the last Gen.
tury the Smithsonian institution was
infested with rats. Nothing in the
building seemed TO be rat proof They
ate skins cured with arsenical soap or
table linen or the contents of Professor
Henry's pantry without discrimination.
Every one in the city, from Professor
Henry TO the bOOtblack. had one sub.
ject in common, and that was rats
As Professor Henry, who lived in
the east end of the building. was lis
tening 10 an account Of the ruin
wrought In his home during that day
Professor Spencer Baird walked in
and said, just as If he had been fol-
lowing every word Of the family con.
yersation, Il have just been told that
there is Q man in Philadelphia who
can rid this place Of rats"
Professor Henry's eyes expressed
interest and incredulity at the same
moment.
u have his address here" went on
the assistant secretary. He calls
himself the 'ratten kOaig' and won't
take cent if rat remains and has
We'll send for him IL it takes our
last Thousand cents to do itv' said
Professor Henry and laughingly pre-
dicted the repetition Of the famous old
tale Of the Pied Piper of Hamslis.
Several days later the rat king
appeared in Washington. He was al
most as short as he was broad and
wore clothes TOO loose for description;
they had no shape. He carried n large
oilcloth sack and O covered basket.
His penetrating blue eyes were almost
covered by shaggy eyebrows, and his
blond hair had not been cut, but hag-
gled. His manner was short and
brisk. and he went straight TO the
point, talking to Professor Henry in
German.
He declared that not a rat would be
In the building three days hence if his
directions were obeyed. During that
time he would stay in the basement
alone; every door was to be locked,

turbed until he gave them the signal.
So they left him in absolute darkness
and carried ont bis directions.
On Sunday morning the queer old
man emerged from tie darkness so
confident of his success that he re-
fused TO accept the money which was
his due tneD and there, but insisted
that Professor HsRFy mail the check
TO him in Philadelphia the following
week.
NOV you can leave your food In the
basement. and it won't be touched
And ] won't take a cent IL you are
troubled with rats" were bis parting
words.
Cheese and cake were directly placed
ibout the building to tempt the rats.
Morning after morning they were
'ound as they had been left. and from
hat day TO this the Smithsonian insti. |
ution has never been seriously trou-
lied with rats. And no one has ever
ound out the secret OF the rat kings
