Train the Girls.

When a girl is ten years old she
should be given household duties
to perform, according to her size
and strength for which a sum of
money should be paid her weekly.
She needs a little pocket money
and the knowledge how to spend it
judiciously, which can so we'll be
given by mother to her little girl.
She should be required to furnish
part of her wardrobe with the
money. For instance, if she gets
ten cents a week she should pur-
chase all her stockings or all her
gloves. as her mother may decide;
and doing this under the mothers
supervision, she will soon learn to
trade with judgment and economy.
Of course, the mother will see to it
that the sum is sufficient to do this
and yet leave a trifie for the child
to spend as she pleaseS. This will
supply a healthy stimulus; it will
give her a proper ambition and
pride in her labor and the ability to
use money properly. AS she grows
folder these household duties should
be increased, with the proportion,
ate increase of money paid for the
performance of them. We know
of a lady who divided the wages Of
a servant among her three daugh,
tiers. There is a systematic ar
rangement of their labor, which i;
done with a thoroughness and alac
rity rarely found either, with hir
ed girl or daughter who feels tina
she has to do it with nothing t
encourage or stimulate her in thu
work.-LaBelle Star.

What the French Are Doing in
Africa.

Africa.
The writer has been in nearly all
of the French African colonies and
makes no Concealment of his adj
miration for the colonial admins
trations that he has witnessed. He
went as an inconspicuous American,
with no advance notices and under
no obligations to any French official
for courtesies. After wandering
around for year in many African
colonies he came away with the
firm conviction that the Frenchman
is the most enthusiastic, the most
discreet, and the kindest of the
African overlords and Withal the
finest builder" in the Dark Contin-
ent. And he is not alone in this
conviction.
Take the material side first, since
the world insists upon gauging the
process of civilization by counting
up expenditures for public works.
No other nation has so many fine
harbors in Africa. You expect
these along the Mediterranean, OF
course, but not along the western
coast, which is pounded by ire
mendous surf from Tangier to the
Cape. The writer caught his first
glimpse of Casablanca just after
the French army of occupation had
landed-and there was the begin
ming of a huge breakwater that
would cost millions. He went into
the harbor of Dakar French Wesj
Africa on a heavy cargo-boat anc

The French Dominion in Africa,

Nearly everything in Africa is to-
day dominated by three great Ovel-
loads-England, France and Ger
many. Great Britain and France
together control about tWo-thirds of
the continent, the British third by
far the more important. Germany
owns a small partof the remaining
third, but its steamship and trading
interests entitle it to voice in all
African councils.
Very few Americans realize the
vastness of the French empire in
the Dark Continent mainly for the
reason that Americans read Eng
ligh and the English do not use
much ink in the Qualification of
French colonization. Here are some
geographical facts that will give an
imperfect conception of the area
covered by the Tricolor in Africa.
The traveller who starts south
ward from Algiers and travels in a
straight line until he reaches the
limit of French territory will cover
a distance equal to that between
New York City and Santa Fe, New
Mexico. If he should start from
Dakar, on the west coast, and 90
eastward until he reach the Anglo,
French boundary, he would 90 as
far as from Pittsburg is San Fran
cisco. Diagonally from Tangier tC
the southeastern corner of the
French domain; the distance i;
equal to that from New York City
to Portland, Oregon.

up into its component parts and fl
them into a map of the United
States and we have something lik,

The ChildTen's Song.

Father in heaven, Who lowest all,
0, help thy children when they call;
That they may build from age to
age
An undefiled heritage.
Teach US to rule ourselves away,
Controlled and clearly, night and
day,
That we may bring, if need arise,
No manned or worthless sacrifice.
Teach us to look in all our ends.
On thee for judge, and not our
friends;
That we with Thee may walk un-
cowed
By fear or favor of the crowd.
Teach us the strength that can not
seek
By deed or thought to hurt the
week;
That, under Thee, we may possess
Mans strength to comfort mans
distress.
Teach US delight in simple things,
And mirth that has no bitter springs
Forgiveness free Of evil done,
And love to all men meath the sun!
-Rudyard Kipling.

A Thought.

Should one struggle in the water,
We would quickly, with a bound,
To you offer our assistance,
Using all the means we found.
But in life we see the people,
Who are struggling more or less,
Yet how few are really helpful,

French Congo covers the big State

have left the Great Desert and its

MEXICO SHOULD
GRANT REFORMS,
SAYS MINISTER
Insurgents, However, Must Lay
Down Arms During Peace
Negotiations.

PARIS, Feb. 20.-In q review of the
crisis in Mexico today Jose Ives Liman-
tour, minister of finance in the cabinet
of President Diaz. declared that the only
basis for peace was that the insurgents
lay down their arms pending negotia-
lions with the government, which. on
its part, should grant a reform of the
evils hat made the revolution possible.
The only alternative that he foresaw
was the probability of a long wasting
struggle, for, said the minister, The
Federal troops are no match for he
cowboy insurgents"
In the opinion of Senior Limantour,
the feudal system in Mexico must go
and the great estates in the north.
which have been passed from family to
family, should be distributed among the
people.
For himself, the minister said that he
had no political ambitions, though he
had been frequently urged to contest
the presidency with President Diaz. He
expects to start home within two
weeks.
Il have no political aspirations" said
Senior Limantour, in concluding the in
terview. II seek merely the uplifting
of my country. / have often been
asked to run for the presidency. but
have refused. l expect to leave Paris
in a fortnight for New York and to
proceed hen by steamer to Yucatan
for a private visit"

he declared the opportune time had ar

he had entered to stay with his SOL

terview was obtained by 7. q. Turner
and afterward read and approved by
Count c. F. u. Caracristi, of Austria,
q personal friend OF the Mexican pro-
visional president.
OF ultimate victory he expressed
himself as confident, his chief hope be-
ing based on public sympathy. Ideals
and liberty which the rebels are fight
ing for cannot fail to triumph, he said.
only the larger cities are under alb

men largely come from the country.
They are men who know how to shoot
and how to adjust themselves TO camp

Our tactics Will be changed. We
are strong enough to rely more on
