schools, does believe in suffrage, but
when saw him on his first day in
tow6 after his summer vacation, he
certainly did say this much:
"The American. children are quick,
very quick, and they retain what they
learn, but they do not. go to the bot
tom Of a question quite as thoroughly" !"
"And are little girls quicker at their
studies than little boys?" l asked nat
urally enough, but the wary superin-
tendent sensed the net l had spread
for him.
"Now, you are going to make me
commit myself to all sorts of things,
aren't you?" he laughed. "Well, If you
put it that way 1 suppose I will have
to answer. 1 do think girls learn
more quickly than boys at first, while
subsequently, particularly in certain
branches, the boys outstrip the girls.
Girls are better at all times in lam
|guages and history, and boys are bet
ter in mathematics"
"How do you account for that?" 1
asked.

want to call it that. One thing is very
sure, though, and that is that girls are
better students than boys-they have
more patience. If boy cannot under
stand his lesson quickly he throws
down his book and goes out to play,
trusting. to luck to pull him through
next day in the classroom. A girl is
more conscientious and tenacious. OF
course, more girls graduate from high
school than boys, but that is only be-
cause the boys are taken out and put
to work. The fact has, however, been
used as suffrage argument, it be-
ing pointed out that the average wom-
an of America has a better education

"MoTHER" OF SAILORS REST"
Descendant of Anne Hathaway Keeps
Welcome for Tars.


Welcome for Tars.
Mother Anne" the sailors, old and
young, call here, and a true mother
she has been to the hundreds of them
who have come under her care during
the last ten years. Although the home
stead she keeps for her "boys," as she
in turn calls them, is in faraway Kings
ton, on the island of Jamaica, many a
jack tar who comes into New York, or
other American ports on sailingsves-
sci or steamship will tell you he
knows and loves Mother Anne" He
knows that no matter how darkpr how
wild the night or how little deserved
her welcome may be, Mother Anne
will keep light burning for her wan
dering boy Of the sea.
Mother Anne's' real name is Mrs.
Anne Hathaway Denniston. Small,
white haired and bowed with the
weight of seventy-five years of sacri-
ficing labor, she makes a picturesque
figure as she moves among the rough
but good hearted men who have sought
the shelter of the institution which she
calls Sailors Rest" The contrast
is striking, too, because of the patric-
ian lines of her face, for Mrs, Dennis
ton comes of good old English stock,
and il ones curiosity is aroused by
her maiden name he may learn that
she traces direct lineage from that
Anne Hathaway whom William Shake
speare married in 1852.
Mrs. Denniston went to Jamaica
thirty-dve years ago with a brother
whose failure in health in India had
led him to seek recovery in the IS
land in the Southern Sea.-New York

CATCHING WILD ANIMALS
Traps for teopards-erain Jar to Hold
Greedy Monkeys.

| Traps TOR Eeopards-GraIn jar to- hoid
Greedy Monkeys.
A writer in the Asian says:
Leopards were caughtzzin nooses
made Of cat or monkey gut. The
tiger, the leopard and the panther have
|all the cats habit of sharpening and
Icleaning their claws on tree trunks,
Ibut whether it is true that preferably
they will use a tree that bears pre-
vious claw marks I cannot say.
1t would be interesting to have the
topinion of some one experienced on
the subject. However, the pursuers
are believed to have selected such a
tree and round and about the trunk
of it set their strong gut snares; and
sometimes the cheetah remained Sc
cured by the leg.a Sure it is that some
snare is used for these beasts, for; they
lare still to be found in the native states
of Rajputana, and probably elsewhere,
kept for hunting purposes.
A leopard secured for hunting must
be caught when he is full grown, and
accomplished in his knack of pulling
down game, otherwise, however much
he were trained, he would never ac-
quire the quickness and perception as
in the wild state when he has to Sc
cure for himself each and every meal
he partakes of.
1 have seen these cheetahs tied to
ordinary charpoys and taking quite
place of their own among their Keep
ers' families, who seem to fear them
not at all. They are carted to the
scene Of action with hoods on, which
are removed when the animal is shown
the object of his required exertions.
l have been told that they are al
ways rewarded for successful chase
with a cupful of fresh, warm blood
from the victim, and some even say
the liver, cut out then and there, is
|given them. To take possession of
these creatures when only noosed to
a tree by one leg must need great
courage and dexterty, though it seems
an easy enough matter to tame them
once they are captured.
Monkeys can sometimes be secured
by the absurdly simple method of put
ting some grain, in a heavy but small
mouthed chatty or gharrah. AS soon
as Jacko knows what is inside he
pops in his fist and fills it full. The
object is to have the opening too sr.all
to allow bis doubled up full fist to-
be withdrawn. He has not the sense
and cunningness that is generally at
tributed to him evidently, for it does
not occur to him in this instance to
empty mis- hand Of grain and SO get
free, for he will go on struggling inef-
fectively without doing SO as often as
not, proving his own undoing.

The Hills Of Rest.

* - 4-ra
Beyond the last horizons rim,
Beyond adventures farthest quest,
Somewhere they rise, serene and dim,
The happy, happy Hills of Rest.
Upon their sunlit slopes uplift *
The castles we have built in Spain
While fair amid the summer drift
Our faded gardens flower again. >
Sweet hours we did not live go by :
To soothing note on scented wing;
In golden-lettered volumes lie
The songs we tried in vain to sing.
They all are there; the days of dream
That built the inner lives of men; I
The silent, sacred years we deem
The might be and the might have
been. 81, t~'y
Some evening when the sky is gold
I'll follow day into the West; -
Nor pause, nor heed, till behold
The happy, happy Hills Of Rest.

aeET.ALoNe" POLICY A POOR ONE.
Day after tomorrow the voters OF
thia city will have opportunity to de
+. eide a question of great moment to
ealumbia, Those who have read the
exhaustive report of Expert H. p. Shaw
: must see their duty to their homes
and to their city clearly.
Columbia could "get along" with the
present waterIight plant for several
years, probably, il the city were fortu-
mite enough to escape visitation from
fire, but a ..:getalong" policy is poor
one at best, and dangerous in the ex-
tneme. "A sixteen-year-old lad can
get along with the clothes he wore
1t twelve, though the pants fall short
of his shoetops and his sleeves expose
half his arms, but it is rough on the
Rgy; and, handicap to his best in
terests.
Citizens of Columbia can "get along
with lamps-as they will be compelled
to. many times before the approach
Ing winter, ends. They can "get along
with water from cisterns-as many
are now doing while at the same time
paying full taxes for a service which
iedenied them. g
But there is no necessity for follow
ing q municipal "get-along" policy-no
reason-that is, no real reason-why
Columbia should not be in step with
the most progressive cities of its class
in everything that makes for, ideal
urban life.
AS individuals, Coiumbians are char
acteristically progressive. The at
tractive homes the well-kept lawns,
the many new and modern structures
which line our business streets and
win praise frem visitors-all these
aAuadaatly prove that the individual,
with means to provide for his needs
and his desires, wants all the conven-
fences and q fair share of the luxuries,
II possible, that will enable him to live
in q manner tn keeping with the pro-
gressive ideas of the age in which he
acts his part.
Now the tax-paying citizen of Col
urnbial being of this nature and dis
position in matters over which he has
direct and supreme control, it would
seem an easy and natural step, for
the citizen collectively to follow like
pelicy In those things which affect
the municipality and make for its
growth and betterment.
The: water-light, system which met
the needs. Of the Columbia OF ten
years, age net only is not adequate

of today, but is a bar to its progress.
OF course. in the end Columbia will
haze equipment in these. public util-
tiles in keeping with her growth and
needs, ie1en If the bonds are defeated

gained by delay, no real purpose to
be. lseryed, by opposing the bonds be-

A Happy New Year

On the threshold of another
New Year we want to pause to
thank our friends and patrons
for the very liberal business ac-
corded us during the past year.
AS one and all you will soon turn
the corner into the New Year,
look back a minute over the road
you have been travelling the past
year. Have you saved anything
for a "rainy dav" that never
fails to come? Have you been
true to yourself and your family? !?
If not, once more before you step
out into the pure New Year call
at our bank and make a deposit,
if only of one dollar, and in
twelve more short months take
another retrospective glance and
see how much pleased you will
be with yourself and with the
way our dollars have multiplied
from the one little seed yOu plan
ted in our bank, Jan. /, 1911
We wish every young man IN
the community would start a
bank account with the New
Year. 1t wOull not mean much
to us but it would mean lots to
them. How many will make the
experiment? Have your idle
money drawing interest Tor YOU
on the first day of the glad New
Year, 1911. This is our advice
and like salvation. 1t 5 free. Try
it. While the feeling OF good
fellowship is in the air and good
resolutions are being made tor
the New Year, would it not he a
good idea ia resolve that you
will save more money during the
coming year than during the
past one; then come in and open
an account with us and then
watch it grow.
