American Illustrators.

The American illustrations-the H.
Illustrations of our numerous "best
sellers" and other stories of shorter
length-havc noticeably improved in
quality in the last few years. The H.
illustrator has slowly but surely forged
ahead Of his old class and the average
work is much higher than formerly.
The illustrator is learning that his H.
l%ustrations have not always illus.
trated either in their adherence to
the printed text or in method of
technique used in p~ortraying his con-
ception. He is learning that an illus.
tration of any real value must not
only illustrate, but that his work
must have artistic value. With neither
of these necessary features, it is, of
course, worthless to the public, and
it 1t be merely al accurate illustra-
ton, merely a line or brush .descrip-
ton of a seem or single thing, the
educated public wants simplicity Of
execution and as great a di~rectness as
is possible, and in many cases If the
illustrator cares not for artistic value
re should give way to the mechanical
craftsman and photographer.

MRS. HEN KEEPS AT WORK
Tratnmen Have Come to Realize That
Biddy Is No Loafer Even
When Travelling.

Fresh eggs are no novelty among
the railroad and express men who
handle the big shipments of live poul-
try that comes into New York from
all sections Of the country. If the
hen has developed the laying habit
she does not forget it during her last
journey. About the last thing that
happens before the trainmen turn
their poultry shipments over to the
consignee is an egg hunt. The ex-
perienced searcher is careful not to
make a disturbance, but reaches into
the crate which houses a section Of
the shipment, gently pushes the in.
mates, first to one side and then to
the other, his search usually being re-
warded by a number of eggs, which
are found lying on the crate bottom.
Queer tenants are sometimes found
In poultry crates. A year or more
ago, when a crate Of poultry from
Iowa was opened at the Farmers mar
ket, Gansevoort. and West streets, a
little kitten was found among the poul.
try, thirsty and half starved. The
marketmen fed it and made a pet of It
afterward. Anyone who goes to the
market now will see a fine Maltese
cat, one whose many successful bat.
ties with the big rats that frequent
the market have given it a wide repu
tatiOn.-New York Press.

THE TRAINING Of THE CHILD
Surely the Most Important Work That
Men and Women Can Be
Called Upon to Do.

There is no mother or father among
us who has not at times been appalled,
by our almost utter lack of equip
ment for the work Of rearing children,
declares a writer in the Detroit News.
1t is by far the most important work
that any Of us can do to rear the men
and ONE who are to make, or re-
make, or unmake the society Of the
future. Most of us are slaves of the
Idea that the big job is to clothe and
feed them and give them the opportu-
mites the schools afford. We would
save them from working with their
hands, and insure them starched
shirts during their lives. But all this
Is nothing in comparison with the real
work of rearing the men and women
of the future. We delegate to others
their training. moral, intellectual and
religious. We become mere feeders
and clothers of bodies, and we do this
much for animals.
Children need companionship, and
companionship means more than seq
regation in a home with blood rela-
tives. The closest companionship is
sometimes reserved for kindred souls
OF other families. Children need to
be treated with consideration while
they are passing through the most
sensitive period of their career. You
can never wound a man as you can a
child. And it Is almost impossible to
influence a man as you can a child.
The very life stuff of the future is in
our hands, and how little we know
about molding 1t.

Palestine and California,

That the soil possibilities of Pales.
tine and California are much the same
is quite a revelation. Prof. A. Aaron
sohn Of l1aifa. Palestine, has pointed
out that each region has a range of
low mountains near the coast, and be-.
yond this a long interior valley with
a range of higher mountains for the
eastern wall, and. as the prevailing
winds have the same direction, the
distribution of rainfall corresponds
closely. 1t is found that the very sim.
liar climatic and topographic condi.
tions have produced similar plants.
The languishing of agriculture in Pal.
est1ne seems to be a result of moor
government, not of sterile soil and
arid climate, and it is believed that
under better management the econom.
ic plants that flourish in California
will be successfully introduced.
Among the plants discovered in Pal.
estine is a wheat. growing wild in
high attitudes on sterile soil. that ia
considered the prototype of our cul.
tivated varieties.

Porter. put my satchel in the
through carriage for Salzburg, not the
smoker"
All right, sir"
A few moments later Edgar Spilten
was installed in the desired carriage.
He always travelled in the compart-
ment for ~non-smokers, for he not only
d1sl1ked the habit, but also was ever
on the lookout for adventures on his
travels. and as ladies generally gave
special preference to this compart.
ment, he found it more opportune.
To-day his prospects looked meager.
The guard had already closed the
doors, and he was still alone. The
train, on the whole, was rather empty.
AS 1t was winter there was but little
travelling for pleasure, and the num-
Der of those driven forth by business
or duty was small at this time Of the
year. In n of the two adjoining
compartments a trio of men had
already picked acquaintance, and were
absorbed in a game of "taroc," while
in the other a pair Of travellers seemed
to consider 1t their chief aim to estab.
lish a cigarette record.
The carriage door was thrown open
and a porter appeared laden with in
Vulnerable bags and bundles, which
he hurriedly tossed up into the rack.
Just like a novel, murmured Ed
gar. II say. porter, who is coming in
here?"
"A lady,"
"Young?"
Surely, Herr Splitter. You may see

what, Frau Hofrathin! You? This
is what I call a surprise. You have
no idea how delighted I am"
"And l, but for another reason,
namely, that I succeeded in getting
here at all. That l am in this last
carriage is simply because I had just
time enough to reach it. It was a
mad rush. Thank heaven my hus-
band was not there; he is always so
nervous"
Like all husbands. May be so
rude as to ask where you are bound?"

conductors R~ec'tonir~ ''aiid, Perhaps.
But Not Reccnai ed by Any
Official Stanaard.

A new method of marking time has
been introduced by Conductor Joe Cor
don. VINO Is Il of the most popular
trainmen on the An>boy division Of
the Pennsylvania railroad. Mr.. Cor
don is not only a favorite with the
men passengers and admired by the
women, but probably because he used
to run the milk train from Borden
town to Camden he is also beloved by
the babies.
Notwithstanding his sweet and
gentle nature, however, it almost
makes him peevish when he has to
hold his train while a lot of lovely
women kiss each other good-by, and
more than once he has been tempted
to give his locomotive a swift kick
and hike down the road without them.
Recently Joe stopped his train at
a station where no less than twenty
women were congregated on the plat
form. Some of them were going away
and some of them weren't and just
as the last moment arrived everybody
started in to kiss everybody else. All
OF this took valuable time and the gen
ial Joseph was patiently waiting.
"All aboard" he finally shouted,
after standing for the sweetness as
long as he could. "This train for Phil
adelphia and way stations"
"Oh, Mr.. Gordon" gushfully cried a
little fairy. wait just a minute, won't
you? l must kiss Bessie gocd-by."
All right" returned Joe, hcaving a
large, sad sigh. "but be rs quick as
you can, please. We are about $50
kisses late now."-.Philadelphia Tele-
sIaph.

Importance Of Details.

Spare no pains in collecting details
before you generalize; it is only when
details are generalized that a truth ia
grasped. The tendency to g~eneralize
is universal with all men who achieve
great success. whether in art, liter.
ature, or action. The habit of gener-
alizing, though at first gained with
care and caution, secures by practice
a comprehensiveness of judgment. and
a promptitude of decision which seem
to a crowd like the intuitions of
genius. And, indeed. nothing more
distinguishes the man Of genius from
the mere man Of talent than the facul.
ty of %generalizing the various details.
each of which demands the aptitude
of a special talent, but all of which
can only be gathered into a single
whole by the grasp of a mind which
may have no special aptitude for anv

A Society for the Suppression of
