Was Or. Cook self-Deluded?

American Review of Reviews
Whether or not DR.. Cook ever reached
the north pole, question upon which
the civilized world has had honest diff.
ferences of opinion from the time OF
the announcement of his claim, there
on the question of the commences OF
the explorers own belief that he mad
been there. Every competent obser-
yer who met him personally has main.
tanned that he is quite incapable, NOR
ally or intellectually, of connecting a
colossal scheme to hocu5 the entire
world Throughout the whole affair
there is no evidence of any plan to
impose on the credulity OF mankind. 1t
seems probable that DR.. Cook actually
attained very high northern latitude
perhaps came within shorter dis
lance of the north pole than he will
over be credited for. 1t is sincerely to
be regretted that he did not, upon his
return to civilization, frankly state
his actual achievement. This was
probably in itself noteworthy enough
to entitle him to honor and financial
return, sufficient, perhaps, to compen
safe him for the privations he under
went. 1t may be that his lonely I'M
prisonment during the six months
arctic night after his return from his
farthest north affected his memory
and Judgment. Throughout the whole
discussion the attitude and conduct OF
the University Of Copenhagen and the
Danish people have been worthy OF
sincere respect and admiration. They
accepted with dignified enthusiasm
and at it's face value the claim of ar
American explorer against whose rec
ord they had no suspicion. All through
the trying period of discussion, sc
often bitter and unfair, they main
tanned the digniled reserve that prop
erly characterized all sincere and hon
est folk while awaiting a decision
But when the necessary evidence was
not produced they did not permit thell
desire or their preceding action tc
prevent a decision in strict accord
with scientific truth.

Class In Good Manners.

Miss Margaret Lennon, principal OF
the Mckinley school, agreeing with
Lord Chesterfield that good manners
are to particular societies what good
morals are to society in general:
Their cement and their security" and
realizing the Importance of the sub
iect, has instituted an innovation in
school instruction by devoting part
of the time usually spent in the class
room to what the children call good
manners class"
This class includes every member in
the school, which has an average at
tendance of between 500 and 1000
and is held in the assembly room or
the third floor at irregular times and
without notice. Here the children art
allowed to ask questions pertaining
TO good manners. Each child asks
question and then answers it himself
The rest of the pupils listen and make
corrections.
Miss Lennon lays no claim to the
honor of suggesting the new idea. She
gives all the credit to fifteen-year
old boy named Alfred Darcy. Al
fred was born in Antwerp, Belgium
where he was educated under private
tutors to speak four languages He
came to America year and hall
ago and entered the Mckinley school
One day he startled his teacher o5
rising in class and deploring the ill
manners of the American children as
compared with the better class in his
native land and by asking why good
manners were not taught In the
schools. Miss Lennon heard OF his re
mark and Immediately decided TO try
his suggestion.-St Paul Pioneer

For Husbands Only.

Berlin Cor. New York Sun.-Ger-
many has taken over wholesale the
brilliant idea initiated by the official
Italian marriage gazette, Gazette Delgi

). Don't allow your wife's intimate
female friends to settle in your house,
and don't bring your male friends in

serious books. Don't you let your wife

the advice of her parents, but follow
Your own opinion.

A Dillon dollars a year is a con-
SefYatlVe estimate OF what Americans
nave 10 pay for the work of depreda-
ting insects that eat our crops and de-
stroy our products. This is the state
nent OF Samuel Hopkins Adams. who
writes an interesting article on iniu-
flouS Insects in the American maya
zine He claims, however, that the
cure OF American agriculture is the
importation of insect pests from for.
elgn countries. He says: "Of our 70
Importantly destructive species

Tries. The cooling moth, that winged
oSre OF apple and pear orchards, is of
European origin, as are the Hossian

Wheat, and the Mediterranean fiour

the broWn-tail moth, twin plaques of
New England's trees, were brought in
one by design, the other by accident
from the old world. In an axiom of
science that an imported insect, if it
succeeds III accbmatizing itself at all,
1iourlshes in its new home better than
In its native land This is particu-
| larly true of America, where the eli
mate seems to favor insect life, ana
where farm and forest are of such ex-
tent as to be beyond the possibility of
the rigid guardianship maintained
over the smaller European holdings.
More important still, it iften happens
that while the neWly-arrived insect ac
! customs itself to conditions here, the
parasites which, in it's true home, hold
1t in check, fail to become natural
lied and soon perish Then the new
conner has everything its own way.
The scale was imported by col
lector of plants at San Jose, Cal.
probably from Australia. In few
years it had spread enormously, and
was simply wfping out the orange
crop wherever it gained a fcothold
Working in conjunction with the pro.

1nal environment With the Austria
liam scale, and laying upon its eggs,
was found a small red-and-black lady
bird, the novium cardinals One
hundred of these were brought back
to California by Mr.. Kobele, bred and
distributed. To the terrified and
skeptical orange growers the result
must have seemed miraculous. With
in two years from the time when the
first ladybird began to breakfast on
scale eggs, the victory was complete

it was a slaughter. Since then the
white scale, while it is not wholly
eliminated, and never will be. has
ceased to be an element of peril to
the citrus orchards OF California"

Not Very Nice Eggs.

Indianapolis News.-Reptiles' eggs
are not very attractive objects. In
the case of crocodiles and many kinds
of tortoises they are pale colored or
white, and resemble those of birds
in shape. But the egg of the gopher
tortoise is remarkable for it's complete
roundness. It might well be mistaken
for golf babll. Many snake eggs are
soft skinned, brown as to color, and
look for all the world like number OF
new potatoes. The eggs of fishes are
usually small, soft and inconspicuous
The most remarkable point about
them is the extraordinary number
laid by the Individual A single cod
lays as many as 100000 eggs.

in the air and still be able to reach
their home without coming in contract
with humanity, says the Philadelphia
Record.
At the foot Of Neyersink mountain,
in the northwestern section OF the
city, lives Julius Wagner. On the
roof of his house are many beehives.
Under the window sills are a number
Of holes leading to a garnet room,
where there are many more hives and
where millions of busy little workers
come and go day by day, bringing each
time a little honey from some clover
field, some tree that is in bloom or
from other sources, thus helping Julius
Wagner to conduct the most success
full and novel apiary in Berks county.
Mr.. Wagner made his start in Read
ing in 1867 with one hive. To this he
added hive after hive from year to
year, until today he has nearly two
score hives in the little garnet room
and on the roof and as many more out
in the country on the premises of
friends.

All Wear Caps.

Some time ago." writes an Amer
lean tourist from Germany, Il made a
snapshot of crowd listening to a
speech in Trafalgar Square, London.
The remarkable feature of the picture
was not the dense multitude, but the
uniformity of the head coverings of
those of whom it was composed.
Nothing but caps Even the speaker
held cap in his hand. | have a
companion picture for the London
crowd, made from the platform in
Humboldtsheim, where Mr.. yon
Geriech was addressing his consti-
tuents The Germans evidently did
not take kindly to the cap, for the pic
ture shows a sea of round-topped der
bies, and the one soft hat of the Al
pine shape in the reat throng is natur-
ally conspicuous.

PARIS REsURGENs.

Back to thy pristine beauty,
Rise from the waters and slime,
City, where laughter is duty,
Child of long travail and time.
Out of the ages destructive,
Down from the shadowy past,
Manifold remnant constructive,
Thou for long ages shalt last.
What is thy word to the nations?
What is the goal thou hast set.
Seeking in all thy creations
Beauty TO make US forget?
Is it but beauty thou teachest?
Shall we not read in thy story
That which, unconscious, thou preach
est,
Liberty, courage and glory?
Mortimer have sacked thee and har
assed-
Where are the Mortimer toCay?
They have the English embarrassed
They, too, have faded away.
Huguenots, Leaguers and Frondists
Each have fought, Iabored and died;
JacObins Mountains, Girondists
Lie in their grave side by side.
Still in the beauty undaunted,
Young with the wisdom Of age,
Hopeful yet memory-haunted,
Turn thou the unwritten page,
Rise TO the untitled mission,
Phoenix of hope and of youth,
Follow thy worldwide ambition,
Teach US that beauty is truth.

Happy Partnership.

Here is the description of a happy
wife seem to get along without much
trouble.
"My husband is methodical almost
to foolishness. He keeps a double en-
try book, in which each member of
the family has an account; also the
house, furniture, and I'm sure | don't
know what else. So to please him
and it is really small thing now that
/ am. accustomed to it keep a
house account.
"That is, I have a calendar (the

met, and when I spend any money for
the house jot it down. 1t is second

| week, now no trouble at ALL Each
week, usually Sunday night after the
family is in bed, we settle up the cash.
He pays me certain fixed sum a
week TO run the house. AS fast as we
have found from increase in prices

six years ago., or increase in family,
that the allowance is too small, it has
been enlarged.

we would problem quite outside our
selves. At present I have So a week

A Needed Awakening.

Cannon Falls (Minn) Beacon.-The
unfortunate part of the blind school
incident lies in the fact that conditions
exist in the institution that generate
such episodes. 1t seems, however,
that IN the case of the three boys sus-
pended from the state school for the
blind that impertinence, ingratitude,
incorrigibility becomes actionable only
when it ventures to complain of the
administration of the school an to
criticize those in immediate control.
Only the boys who complained of
these things were required to leave
the institution; and if we may judge
of the spirit in authority in the school
and of that which prevailed the hear
inbg being by press reports, the stu
dents are expected to consider them
selves as dependents upon the charity
of the state, and are held as baseIy
ungrateful if they complain of what
they get. This is in no sense proper
The state educates its children, under
varying conditions; that is the sub
stance of the whole matter, and blind
children are as much part of the
state as are the children who can see.
In the education of its children the
state is simply discharging its duty TO
itself. If, as the conduct OF this IN
curry and its results suggest, com
plants from these blind boys are to
be met in spirit of resentfulness and
revenge, then it is time for radical
change in the management of the
school, regardless of who in this
particular instance was at fault.
