Hippo Steak.

The hippotOtamus, as any one
who has travelled in Africa knows,
is very good eating, says Capt. Fritz
DuqueSe, in Success Magazine" in
an article, entitled New Animals
for America" The flesh tastes
something between pork and beef.
1t is highly esteemed by whites and
natives alike. 1t is known among
the Beers who were the first whites
to eat it, as Zee-Koe speck (sea-
COW bacon) when it is cured. The
hippoptamus is practically the beef
of Africa. The fat, which lies be-
tween the skin and the flesh, and
averages about two hundred pounds
is one of the purest animal fats
known to science. 1t is in great
demand for soaps and cold cream
brings high price from the African
trader.
OF course, people would have
prejudices against hippo steak al
first, but they would soon learn tc
eat it. At present, according tC
some investigators, a great deal o.
the sausage sold in some of thu
Coast States is made of porpoist
meat and slaughterhouse vast,
mixed together. The recent expos,
of the cold storage methods which
kept meat for years, for a favora
bic market, should make 'peopl,
willing to prefer anything to that.

know,
That books don't tell and maps

And have asked our teacher, too
But she can't answer them. Can you?
Is the Spruce-tree always neat and
trim?
Does the DogwOOd ever bark?
Will the Peach-tree ever tell on him
Who keeps his miSdeedS dark?
Does the Locust chirp or does it
hum?
Does the Willow pay its debts?
Does the Palm possess a wrist or
thumb?
Do Pear-trees come in sets?
Do Beeches grow down by the sea?
Is the Chestnut a WORKOUT joke?
Must the Plane-tree's limbs quite
level be?
Are charts from the Charter
0ak?"
Is ice ever weighed on a Sliding
scale?
Are canes swung by Walking
Beams?
Does pOStman wear a coat of Mail?
Are slippers used by Spanking
Teams?

Advertising Pulls.

If there is one thing on earth
that gutter should leave severely
alone, it is advertising" says John
Wanamaker, ITO make a success
of advertising one must be prepar-
ed to stick to it like barnacle on
a boats bottom. Advertising doesn't
jerk; it pulls. 1t begins very gently
at first, but the pull is steady 1t
is likened to a team pulling a heavy
load. A thousand spasmodic, jerky
pulls will not bulge that load,
while one-half the power in steady
effort will start it and keep it NOV

the life of William Holmes McGuf-
fey, the author of the McGuffey
spoilers and readers. | quote from
the writer of the sketch, Prof. Gist.
Cedar Falls, Iowa
How many choice selections we
enjoyed in that log school house a
half century ago! We got a taste
for Longfellow, Bryant, Whittier,
Holmes, Wolf Pope, Dryden, Willis,
Byron, Goldsmith, Milton, Shake
speare and many others. Some of
the selections we're above us, but
later we were glad that we had to
read them. The district school of
those days actually had some ad-
vantageS over our modern schools
with all their equipment and inn
proved methods. This is a heresy
and should be spoken in a whisper
only. The pupils then ranged in
age from five to tWenty-One and
older, Those of us in the second
and third reader listened with in
terest to those in the fifth reader,
and we counted the time when we
would be in the advanced class.
When we came 20 the more difficult
selections, we read them with more
Zest, because the other classes had
prepared the way
We were thrilled with patriotic
emotions as We listened to the pa
triotism of Patrick Henry, Webster,
Writ and Chatham. We learned
from Webster that there could be
no such thing as peaceable seces-
sion and we saw it verified before
we left the district school, Some
of us went from the district school
to the firing line. Those readers
introduced us with delight to Irv-
ing, Hawthorne, Dickens and Scott.
We wept with Professor Wilson as
we read The Eagles Nest and
The Twins" and with Dickens, as
he told us of The Sick Scholar
We imagine that we could see
Warren Hastings as he appeared
for trial and we felt the power of
Burke and Sheridan as they direct
ed that great impeachment. Ma
caulays rhetoric impressed us
deeply. We listened to the quarrel
between Brutus and Cassius and
we were thrilled by Antony's euIogy
upon Caesar. We saw the Pilgrims
land on the wild New England
shore" and their heroiSm moved
our hearts. We saw the "Disinher-
tied Knight" unhOrse his valiant
antagonist and we joined the ap-
plause that greeted the victor. We
read PaulS defense before Agrippa
and the story of Elijah and they be-
came real to us"
After reading this tribute to Nc
Guffey, found myself a boy again
going to school at the Neville
school house, and the one teacher
above all others that appeared be-
fore me was Robert Ford, who rem
dered to that community a great
service while we would spend two
or three schools on one book -
read it through from five to a
dozen times-we could tell the
story" of the selection. We could
recite it as recitation and to this
day, many of those thrilling mas,
terpieces are as fresh in the mind
as though they were committed but
,yesterday.-Perry Enterprise.

The Reason.

The reasons for the underhand
fight made by the St. Louis Repub-
lie on T. M. Bradbury in his cam
paign for the nomination for Rail-
road Commissioner, and which
almost resulted in his defeat, ought
to be explained to Missouri farmers
in detail. Knott was coaching
Bradbury and the Republic hates
Knott because he is the only MEM
Der the commission has ever had
who has honestly tried TO do his
duty. Wightman and Oglesby being
mere figureheads, nominated and
elected by the railroads. Up to two
years ago Missouri had no grain
weighing or grain-inspectlOn law
worth the name. Farmers shipping
grain to St. Louis were not only
compelled to accept the classified
ton of the brokers who bought it,
but their weights as well. AS a re-
suit every day turned up short, and
grain growers of the state were
swindled out of thousands of dollars
every year. Knott framed the new
law giving state weight by the
Commission and its introduction
into the state brought a swarm of
business men up from St. Louis
in a special train to protest and this
failing brought down the Republics
enmity on Knott'S head. 1t has
never forgiven him for taking away
the graft its pets were enjoying,
and, being the absolute property of
the bunch of financial high-binderS
who have the city of St. Louis by
the throat, has been waging war on
him ever since. Mr.. Bradbury has
been clerk of the Commission, rem
dering valuable assistance to Knott
in his lone fight, and wanting
another man on the commission
who would do his duty, the latter
backed him. By some lucky
blunder he won, and now the Re-
public wants to abolish the COM
mission, ostensibly because it isn't
doing anything" but in reality be-
cause it is getting ready to do
something. Paris Mercury.

Jim Reed"

qualities of fellowship and because
Of his remarkable sacrifice and
labor of love for the Democratic
party without reward this man is
fondly called Jim" Reed by thous-
ands and there are thousands of
faithful Democrats who are willing
and anxious to spend time and
money, if needs be, to reward this
splendid Democrat.
You may not today be an ad-
mirer of James A. Reeds political
party. However, as a Missourian,
you can hardly hear or read a
speech from this man without feel
ing a thrill of pride in being a fell
lowcitizen with such a man cast in
that massive mold of the wonder
ing orators of ancient and modern
times.
The feeling is rapidly cryastaIiz-
ing in Missouri that the state needs
plain and gallant Jim Reed in the
United States Senate. Some of the
best judges of logic and oratory in
America hold that Mr.. Reed is one
of the most brilliant and convincing
jurists in the English-speakine
world today. He is a platform =
abiding Democrat-the type of man
that never turns traitor to Demo.
cratic principles as enumerated in
the party platform. Such a man
will be a party servant and not g
party traitor in the time of crucial
test. And now, as never before
Missouri and the nation needs men
who have never faltered and who
have never turned their backs on
Democracy in its hour of peril
And this is only one Of the several
reasons why Jim Reed should be
sent to the Senate Of these United
States. -The Richmond Missourian

BOARD SELECTS HIGH
 SCHOOL LOCATION

The school board met yester- day and selected the location for the new high school building, and out of quite number of in viting propositions, accepted the one offered by Messrs. Moore & Martin, o. $. Jones and c. c. Hamby just outside the city linn in the southeastern suburbs. The tract contains about 33 acres, donated as follows. Moore x Martin, 20 acres, o $. Jones, 10 acres, and c. c. Hamby about acres. It is a most beautiful site, and while at present some what isolated, roads and streets leading to the building will be opened up, and when finished will be easy of access from every point of the compass.
 The donation contract calls for water and light connections, con. crete sidewalks to the building, the opening up of the streets leading from town, and the opening of roads on both the north and south sides of the site, with another road leading south to intersect with the Rosston road near the Tobe Milan place.
 The two parallel roads from east to west on either side of the building will connect the Iron Bridge and the Steele Bridge roads and will greatly improve the section of country adjacent to the building
 No action in many years has handed our people as nice a package of advancement as the assurance of the building for the high school and the selection of It's location. We are glad to see the town growing out. There has heretofore been too much cen. trallzlng and it is consoling in. dication when we note the get ting away from any one section ot the town, and the opening up of the by places.
 There was quite number of splendid sites offered, any one of which would have been ideal, but the board couldn't accept them all, and did what, in it's iudg ment, they thought was for the best interests of all concerned.
 One of the reasons for select. ing site for the building out. side of town was to permit the installing of a sewerage system, which at present was impossible in the city.
 Contract for the building will be let at once, and it will be stipulated in the contract that completion must be had by Sep. tember 1st.
