VIII and Conscience.

Few teachers as yet and still fewer
parents. realize that the Will and the
conscience are the most important ele-
ments in winning an education-more
important than anything purely intel
lectual. 1t is these, the will and the
conscience. which, using books and les
sons tools and the schoolroom as
workshop. gradually evoke in the
child mind powers of concentration
mental thorcughness and accuracy,
high intellectual standards, and the
sense of intellectual responsibility.-

CANADA FORGING AHEAD.

Thomas G. Shotwell, one of the
greatest market reporters in America,
writes from New York, under date of
March Goth, and says:
The tariff tangle with Canada
which President Taft has taken in
hand is of Importance chiefly because
of the multitude of American farmers
that are crossing into the Canadian
northwest. Most conservative esti-
mates of their number place it at
10000 for 1910. Some say as many
as $4,000 will cross. These are all
expert farmers and their places in the
United States are being filled by I'M
trained men from Europe and from
the cities. Canada is gaining rapidly
in agricultural Importance and within
a few years the United States will
have to call on the Dominion for
wheat. Production of wheat in the
United States is not keeping pace with
the population. A tariff war would
complicate the problem Of getting
food. Even now Canadian farmers
are getting higher prices for their cat
tie on the hoof, and Canadian house
wives are paying less for meat in the
butcher shops than farmers and house
wives are receiving and paying in the
United States. The tariff on cattle
and wheat must be removed as be-
tween the two countries before long"

AN HEIRESS PLANS.
How to Spend an Income of One Hun
dred Thousand Dollars.


Miss Margaret Cornelia Hoffman, the
New York manuscript reader, who was
left legacy of 100000 by her uncle,
Charles Ferdinand Hoffman, a former
Wall street clerk roted for his parsi-
plans for the disposal of an annual in
come of approximately 100000.
Miss Hoffman is very pretty bru-
nette. with a soft, melodious voice. She
is just 20 years old, and comes here
from Louisiana. She retains her room
in the boarding house at 1874 State street,
Brooklyn, where her uncle lived for
twenty years, but she is at present stay
ing with friends in New York.
How does it feel suddenly to become
an heiress?" she was asked.
THE feeling is the same" she an

is a pleasure to search for the romantic

will continue at it.
But, really, what l intend to do with

advantage of it as means TO hear all

"A little episode was brought back to
me this afternoon. for l was asked by
another member of the Mission circle
if my plans had changed. She explained
that she was present at a meeting held
two years ago, where all the members
were asked what they would do if they
had $4,000.
Il was reminded that my answer was
that 1 would like to spend it in giving
my uncle a trip to Europe, for l did not
realize he had the vast fortune he had
secretly piled up.

of the decision of the surrogate and of
the discovery of my late uncle dying

would first have one grand opera outing
here and then possibly take the trip
without my uncle"
will there be another companion on
that trip?" Miss Hoffman was asked.
Il refuse to speak for publication"
she answered, blushing.

The Simplicity

The Overlands operate by pedal
couuol, SO the hands have nothing to
do but steer One goes forward or
backward, fast or slow, simply by
pushing pedals. A child can master
the car in ten minutes.
The OverIands are free from COM
pleXities A novice can run them and
care for them. One Of these cars has
run 1000 miles without stopping the
engine
In the Government Postal Service
0yerlands have run rs miles day
for a year and a half without missing
a trip.
They are as faithful as watches. A
man who knows nothing about ma
chinery can run an Overland thou

A Dangerous Phase of College Life.

A Dangerous Phase of College Life.
1t is not an outside critic, but mem
Der of the faculty of an institution of
higher Iearning-Professor Marion Tai
bot, of the University of Chicago-who
makes this serious, but, as everyone
knows, truthful statement concerning
the motive of some of those who seek
enrolment as college students and the
countenance which they receive from the
powers that be:
An increasingly large number of young
people go to college openly and avowedly
for sO-called good time. They and their
parents talk as if the years in college
from eighteen to twenty-five were respite
granted to q convict before entering upon a
term of penal servitude. The college is
largely to blame that there is a growing
doubt in the public mind as to the value of
this great educational machinery which
turns out so many weaklings and incom-
petents The college has allowed amuse-
ment in the form of dissipation to flourish,
while amusements which might serve as
recreation have been neglected.
Ostensibly college are for education,
not for recreation. Where sports and so
cial functions are permitted to engross
n large share of the attention of stu
dents, education is lost sight of by many
of those who need it most. Unfortunate
ly the atmosphere which is permitted to
be created by the element in the student
body that deliberately goes in for good
time is breathed by young men and young
women who have entered with earnest
purpose. and it exhilarates them to their
undoing. For the vast majority who en-
ter college. life is bound to be struggle,
and if they pass through their college
experience without acquiring education
that will fit them to enter the struggle
better equipped for it because they have
attended college, the college manage
ment is to blame. No one will dispute
the old saw that "all work and no play
makes Jack duh boy but all play
and no work has made many Jack an
idle and vap;d boy and a useless man:
future Jacks and in the case of future
.Jlls as well, unless the people in charge
of colleges where there is an overplus OF
athletics and of fraterna1 associations
mend their WHY'S.

How Weasels Garry Eggs.

One morning recently a weasel was
surprised crossing the public highway

something under its chin and pressed

lockers made dash at the little creature
it dropped its burden-a hens egg-and

King Edwards motor cars do not bear
number plates. Those of the German
royal family are recognized by their
warning signals. They alone may use the

The cars used by the German Emper-

the royal princes by twO-noted horns
No infringement of this prerogatiye by
ordinary motorists is tolerated.
