EDUCATION AND MORALS.
Do not Grow into Cherokee Rose
Hedqe Through Your Conversation.

"One Of the causes of bad English
is the disrespect which children are
permitted to feel for each other. The
sacrcdness of personality is not taught
them, and they are allowed to badger
each other, and to make each other
ashamed of all distinguishing pecul-
iarities Disrespectful nicknames are
permitted-very different things these
from the affeetionate little home
names-and conversation, instead OF
being the medium of friendliness be-
tween brothers and sisters, becomes as
prickly as Cherokee-rose hedge.
Undue familiarity between fellow
students breeds the same disrespect
and cheapness, and young folk who
indulge in these insolent jocularities
extend their impudence until it in
eludes their fathers and mothers. To
be sure, this impudence may be mixed
with affection. \ boy may call his
father the old man., and still love
him; he may say. the mater will
kick if he does such and such a thing,
aud be ready. all the time. to devote
his life to his mother; but he has low
cred his own standards by talking IN
such a manner. He is becoming, i'm
porceptibly. not only less gentleman,
but less a man of character."-Wom-
ans Home Companion.

FISHING FOR IRON.
Novel Process Used in Sweden for Sc
curing Fragments of Ore.

The bottoms of many Swedish lakes
are covered to thickness of six or
eight inches with fragments of iron
ore of the size of peas. This lake ore
consists chiefly of orehre, or hydrated
oxide of iron, mixed with silicate and
phosphate of iron, clay, sand and 9TH
er impurities, and yields pig iron Of
very good quality.
The ore is obtained by very primi-
tive methods. In winter n hole is cut
in the ice, a scraper attached on u
long pole is inserted and all of the ore
within reach is collected into heap
beneath the hole. Some of the mud
which has been scraped together with
the ore is removed by stirring the
mass with poles. and the ore is then
scraped into bags which have been
sunk and is hauled up.
In summer this curious mining OPP
Grafton is conducted in similar man.
ner from RATS anchored in the lake.
Two miners can bring UP about four
tons of ore in a day. Steam dredgeS
have recently been installed in a few
places. About thirty years after the
removal of the ore new layer of the
same thickness is found to have been
produced by natural chemical process

Without Ice.

In places where it is impossible to
secure ice every day d good way to
keep butter and milk cool IS TO SECURE
a large common fiowerpot and seal the
hole in the bottom with plaster of
naris. Place the bottle containing
the milk and the covered crock with
your butter in it,
Fill the pot with cold water to as
great a depth as is possible without
the bottle or crock floating. Cover
the pot with board or some tight
covering and set in the open air. but
not in the sun: if possible, where u
breeze will strike it.
The evaporation from the water ON
the outside of the porous pot Will
keep the contents several degrees
cooler than the outside air where there
is any air stirring.
The higher the wind or the drler
the air the greater will be this cooling
effect-New York Press.

We should more and more feel our

have the promise of the First Resur-

His glorious Kingdom which will
soon be established in the earth and
enforce righteousness.
Jesus was the great Light which
came into the world, and His followers
were to be lights or candles also,
LAS He was, so are we in this World
light bearers The Church is not q
the world. As Jesus said, "Ye are not
of the world" Yet the Church is the
light of the world Each individual
Christian should let his light SHINE
before men. and the Church as Whole
is to be like "a city set on hill when
cannot be hid" shining out upon the
world which, later, they are to judge
and bless.

Killing Blackbirds Brought on i
Pest of Locusts.

A number of years ago blackbirds
were exceedingly abundant through
eastern Nebraska. They were SO
plentiful that the farmers believed
they We're damaging crops, so they be-
gan poisoning the birds. y single
grain of corn soaked in stryehnine
was enough to kill blackbird. In
the years that followed, great num-
bers of these and other birds were
destroyed during the spring and fall.
At the same time thousands of quail,
prairie chickens, and other game
birds were killed in every country to
gan to disappear, swarms of locusts
took their place, These insects
Matched out in countless numbers
and began devastating crops. Few
fields of grain escaped damage Many
were entirely destroyed. Where
blackbrds. quail, prairie chickens,
plovers, and other birds remained.
they took to living entirely on locusts
In such localities fair crops were Sc
cured solely through the assistance
of the birds.
The members of the United States

messed the work accomplished by the
birds in this region. said the results
were so complete that it was impos
