ST. LOUIS, COOPERATIVE CLUB.
Trades of All Kinds Taught Graft,
 in This Church School.

Trades of All Kinds Taught Graft,
 in This Church School.
 The Rev. Elihu F. Harris, pastor ci the Clifton Heights Christian Church, was busy in overalls Wednesday pack. ing up the effects of the Robertson Printing Company preparatory to transferring them to the basement oi his church, the St. Louis Republic says.
 There the plant will be set up and used as one of the educational branches of the Society of Applied Christianity, of which pr. Harrie is national super, intendent.
 For more than year the society has conducted night school in the church basement, teaching several scores oi pupils various trades and along gen. eral educational lines.
 The idea, according to Dr. Harris, is entirely cooperative, the students be. ing admitted to the classes free oi charge to the members of the society From this fund a sick benefit is set aside, the remainder going to main tain the night school.
 The instructors are members of the congregation, who serve without re. muheration.
 pr. Harris came here from Colorado where he organized sixteen chapters of the society. That at the Clifton Heights church is the only one east of Colorado.
 We work entirely in a spirit oi brotherly love-" Dr. Harris said There are thousands of young people who wish to advance themselves, but lack the opportunity. Our desire is to furnish the opportunity. We have work going ourselves. There is very little expense attached, as our instruct ors are men and women who do the work through a Christian and chari table spirit. In the community oi Clifton Heights there are hundreds oi town stores and have no opportunity to learn. We find that these people flock to our school as soon as they hear about it.
 We are going to start class in stenography soon. We expect to keeI the printing plant going by the work of our apprentices. These apprentices will, of course, receive no pay until they develop themselves into workmen of value. Most of our printing will be done at night"
 Dr. Harris is not afraid of work oI dirt. The dust and dirt on his overalls showed his determination.

and clean the farm well, writes J. L. Risley. Any floating matter may be removed by using an ordinary hand sieve. After marking off the rim into three parts attach wire to any of these parts or points. and for a handle use an attached rope. Fasten the end of the rope to the third point in the rim and a weight to the sieve, so 1t will sink after lowering. In using sink the sieve edgewise in the water, pull the rope with a single attachment, lifting out of well all the floating sticks and other debris from the sur face of the water.

Live stock Build. Up Land.

It is very well known that in the old agricultural districts of Europe where land has been under cultivation for 2.000 years there is an increasing tendency to expand live stock indus try It is now recognized that animal husbandry is wonderful help in not only maintaining the fertility of the soil, but also live stock industry builds up the land. Germany now has lO,967 ,0O0 milk cows, an increase of 5OO,OO0 in the past seven years. The total number of cattle in the empire aggregates 2O,631 ,000. a gain of nearly 5,OOO,O0O since 18S3 Pigs total 22,- 147, 1000, as against 9,206,OOO in 1SS3 The only class of live stock which shows a decrease is sheep, which de :lined 100000 in the past seven years

more than segregation in home with blood relatives. The closest compan- ionship is sometimes reserved for kin dred 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 impos- sible to influence a man as you can child. The very life stuff of the future is in our hands, and how little we know about molding it.

Runaway matches have been known

Runaway matches have been known to turn out ideally, but not often. Their average course is toward wreck age and wretchedness. The very need of secrecy and flight Is generally in dicative of fault in the scheme some where, and young girls who are willing to defy parental love and care and marry by stealth need feel no surprise when their idols feet turn out to be clay, and a poor variety of that Spite of the jokesmiths, the cartoonists and the waggish poets. marriage is the most serious step in the lives of men and women.

NIflk Production.

Where help can be obtained to oper- ate the dairy, milk production is one of the best paying branches of animal husbandry. The farmers operating their holdings with milch cows are enabled to market all the roughage and grain produced on the farm in milk, butter, cream or cheese. The dairy industry is especially adapted to build up and increase the fertility of the farm. It is popular among farm CTS because the farmer realizes 2 monthly income on his investments. As a rule, dairymen are thrifty and prosperous agriculturists. - Drovers' Journal

There is no mother or father among as who has not at times been appalled, by our almost utter lack of equipment for the work of rearing children. It is by far the most important wark that any Of us can do to rear the men and women 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 clcthe and feed them and give them the oppor- tunities the schools afford. We world 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 clothiers of bodies. and we do this much for animals. Children need con- -oanionship, and companionship means

FattenfnE Fowls,

A fowl should always be fattened as quickly as possible. Ten days is long enough, but it should be confined either in a coop or a number in a small yard. They must have a con- tinual supply of fresh water, and should be fed four times a day, the first meal being given early and the last one late. A recommended mix ture is three parts corn meal, one part ground oats, one part bran, one part crude tallow, the entire lot scalded and fed for the first three meals, with all the corn and wheat that can be eaten up clean at night. Weigh the articles given.

A new bridge for ordinary traffic is about to be built, larger and more magnificent than any of the fifteen others which span the Thames between the Tower of London and Hammer smith. Its approach on the northern bank will be from an open space near St. Paul's Cathedral, and it will no doubt be called PauTs Bridge. Street cars, or trans, as the English call them, will cross the river by the bridge. but probably in a sort of sub way beneath the carriage drive.

The Hair In Sickness.

The hair needs especial atteu.
ton during an illness, and much
can be done by daily care to pre-
serve it. When one Is seriously
i'll in bed, the hair should be care
fully com bed every day. 1t
should be parted down the back,
the parting of the middle carried
straight down to the nape of the
neck. The hair on each side
should be carefully combed to-
ward the ears, and then begin
nlng near the ear 1t should be
firmly braided and carefully tied
at the ends. If the hair is very
heavy the bralds should be dlvld-
ed, and two bralds made on each
side instead of one. The braids
beginning below the scalp are
not IN the way of the head when
reposlpg on pillow. The tight
bralds keep the hair from snarl-
ing. 1t also makes it easy to ap
ply some cooling hair tonic to the
scalp, which should be done as
often as twice day, and which
IS very cooling to the fevered
head, and very refreshing, be-
sides aiding greatly IN keeping
the hair from falling. With the
hair thus braided, when the pa
tient Is too weak to have it comb
ed, which is often the case IN Sc
we're fevers, the hair is preserved
from tanglIng and will come out
uninjured. The great heat occa.
stoned by the fever IS very inJur.
lous to the hair, but many pa.
tents recover without loss of
hair, and often In an improved
condition by this means. 1t US
ed to be considered necessary to
cut or shave the hair after a fe-
yer, so much of it would come
out; but now hair specialists do
not think this necessary, but with
careful massage, the application
of crude va seine to the roots, and
the clipping the ends of the hair,
especially the seeking out and
trimming of the split ends of the
hair, the new hair will come in
and the improvement will be suf
hclently gratifying. - "Health
and Good Looks" in The Ladies
World for January.

Why Such Marriages Fail.

When Miss Anita Stewart of
New York married Prince Miguel
of Bragapza, in a little Scotch
highland church a few months
ago, there was a brilliant scene.
Scotch pipers In highland dress
made a brave show and dlscours.
ed music as only pipers can dis
course it; soldiers lent a martial
air to the proceedings and villag-
ers gazed upon the scene with de
light and wonder. Surely 1t was
novel and romantic wedding,
but the sequel seems to have TAX
en- much of the romance out of 1T.
The princess is finding that an
empty title and a characterless
hus band are poor exchange for
the Stewart millions. Like most
of such marriages, it seems to be
a failure. The Prince, who was a
notorious spendthrlft, accumulat
ed ante wedding debts to the
amount of over 100000 which
the Stewart money was expected
to pay. Now, apparently, the
money Is not Forthcoming and the
Princes furniture Is seized by
angry creditors and will be sold
to pay his debts.
In the nature Of things a mar
rage that is not based on affec-
tion or moral grounds, but which
is simply barter of good Ameri
can dollars for foreign title and
an lmpecunious spendthrlft, is al
most surely doomed to failure
and consequent bitterness and
disappointment. And yet we
suppose that TO the end of time
some heiresses will be caught by
the glamor even as a moth Is
caught by lighted candle.
