In the Island of Stone Money" DR..
". II. FurniSS tells of the female fash
ions of the natives of zap. the most
westerly Of the Caroline islands, and
expresses wonder that the women are
so rarely burned to death.
'In the first place, their skirts are
composed OF fonr or Aye layers of
dried leaves aud strips of bast and are
so vUluminous and distended that they
stand OUT all around the body, outrival-
ing the old fashioned hoopskirts. Even
when sitting down the women are sur-
rounded by mound of veritable tin
der. III the second place. they are for
ever striking matches to light their
cigarettes; nay, worse even, they carry
about with them, for the sake Of econ
omy, the glowing husk OF cocoanut,
and neither to matches nor husk do
they give the slightest heed, striking
the one recklessly over their own skirts
or absentmindedly resting the other
against the skirts of their neighbor.
Yet in spite Of this utter recklessness
never did see a skirt catch fire One
month at longest is the life of a wom-
ans dress; then the old skirt is burned
and a brand new one plated, with no
tedious fittings at the dressmaker's
nor depressing bills to pay"

A Shock For Tennyson.

If any one asked Holman Hunt
about persons he would tell delightful
frank anecdotes concerning, maybe,
the great men he knew and loved and
measured exactly. He liked a spice of
fun in everything, too, and his face
beamed as he described a walk with
Tennyson he had lately taken. They
heard footsteps behind, and the great
man frowned. How they dog US,
Hunt! How shall we escape them7" .

DOan's Kidney Pills cure the cause
of disease, and that is why the cures
are always lasting. This remedy
strengthens and tones up the kidneys,
helping them to drive out of the body
the liquid poisOns that cause back
ache, headache and distressing kidney
and urinary complaints. Marietta peo-
pie testify to permanent cures.
r. M. Sanges, lis Gober street, Ma
rietta, Ga, says: Il suffered for long
time from kidney trouble and lumba,
go. The kidney secretions were irreg-
ular and scanty in passage, and con-
tanned sediment. My back ached a
great deal. and I could not stoop with
out having severe pains in my hips
| also had occasional dizzy spells, and
all these troubles combined made me
feel miserable. l finally procured
Doan's Kidney Pills at J. w. Legg &
Co.'S Drug Store, and obtained so
much benefit from the use of the first

Frederick tho Greats Jo,ks,

Among the embellishments which
Berlin owes to Frederick the Great the
new palace is the most conspicuous.
This magnificent building was erected,
1t is said. to, show Fre9erick's enemies
that his many wars had not exhausted
bis exchequef And further to show
his contempt for the countries which
had sought to crush him at the top OF
the cupola he placed a group of three
women dancing together, the figuring
representing Catherine the Great, Ma
ria Theresa and Nine. de Pompadour
The wrath of the two expresses was
unbounded at finding themselves de-
picted In such an attitude and such
company, so Frederick was able to con-
graduate himself on a thoroughly sue

1t is hardly half century since the

He, as Sir Frederick Treves mentions
in his new book on the country, was
"a specialized and complex product of
civilization in the form of an undls-
charged bankrupt fleeing from his
creditors"-a Baluch soldier, by name
Isan bin Hussein. THE Baganda,
being fond of anything new, received
this rara avis with effusion and made
much of him. So highly We're his

on TRAINING BOYS.
A Vigorous and Interesting
Article on The Way to
Make Men of Them.
Marietta, Ga, Dec. 20, 1910.


Good citizenship is.a characteristic
that is not developed in a, day or
month, a character may be torn
asunder in a very brief time, but one
is not built in such time, There are
so many sources in the growing OF
character that you can not say this
is chief or that. However there7are
few sources that everyone -would.in
clude as character determining. In
| shall mention only one: "a school
that trains boys to fill the places OF
men, that are men in after life, is one
of the bulwarks OF strength in any
nation. And rather strange is it that
OF all the teaching that boy may get,
he remembers his teacher long after
he has forgotten how to infect a Latin
verb, or the rule for extracting the
cube root of a number. A school that
seeks to know the boys that are under
its tutelage and that endeavors to
mold the thought OF its boys so that
they will not be a mis-it in life should
receive the hearty cooperation Of every
citizen OF community All boys are
not alike; some are petted, some need
a little petting, some need rubbing up
one side and down the other, some
come from homes where the authority
of the parents is what it should be
and some from homes where there is
no restraint at all; some are permitted
by their parents to roam the, street
after dark, and some are permitted to
do anything under the sun they desire
to at any time they choose. A school
has to take boys from these diverse
and adverse circumstances and try to
mold and shapen good characters.
Sympathy is not all that a school
needs under these circumstances.
Some boys need daddy" God pity
the boy who has been permitted to do
as he pleases! There is no slogan
that needs more urgent attention
than, GOOD Lord give us 'daddies'
with backbones. Save US from the
spineless kindp'
Character is a process of growth,
and if you have a boy that you be-
lieve in, think that it will pay you
to investigate our school We want
boys that have grit and determination,
and We want to form friendships with
the fathers who are ambitious for
their sons, who are willing to make
an endeavOr to start their sons in life
with the very best training to be had.
The money OF property that a parent
may leave his child can be swept
away in the twinkling ofnan eye, but
it does not lie in the power of anyone
to snatch the education he may have
given him. Give your boy a chance
if you think he has the mettle, Give
him an education, for that is all you
can give him besides a good name
that you are dead certain will not do
him damage. Ii you believe in your

Use Short Words.

Literary aspirants should religiously
cschew polysyllabic photography. The
philosophical and pathological substruc-
ture of this principle is ineluctable.
Excessively attenuated verbal sym
bols inevitably induce unnecessary
completely and consequently exagger-
ate the obfuscatiOn of the mentality of
the pcruser. Conversely, expressions
which are reduced to the furthermost
minimum of simplifcation and COM
pactness, besides contributing realistic
verisimilitude, constitute a much less
Onerous handicap to the readers per-
spicacity.
Observe, for instance, the unmistak-
able and tnescapable expressiveness Of
onomatopoetic, interjectional, mono
syllable utterances, especially when
mOtivated under strenuous emotional
circumstances. How much more APP
pealing is their euphonious pulchritude
than the preposterous and pretentious
pofnpOsity Of elongated verbiage-Life
