A family in Minnesota that now en-

spring when father brought home a
package one evening just to try it. We
had heard from our neighbors, and in
fact every one who used it, how we'll
they liked it.
"Well, the next morning Mother
brewed 1t about five minutes, just as
she had been in the habit Of doing

tention to the directions printed on
the package. 1t looked weak and
didn't have very promising color, but
nevertheless father raised his cup
with an air of exceptancy. 1t certain
ly did give him great surprise, but
I'm afraid it wasn't very pleasant
one, for he put down his cup with a
look of disgust
Mother wasn't discouraged though,
and next morning gave 1t another trial,
letting It stand on the stove till boil
Ing began and then letting 1t boil for
fifteen or twenty minutes, and this
time we were all so pleased with It
that we have used II ever since.

THE FALL OF THE WEEPER.

Diaz has fallen. For thirty-five years
the Weeper OF Icamole ruled Mexico
with free hand. But that hand is
now lowered; the old president has
relinquished his claim to govern. Al
though lying i'll, he was forced to sign
the agreement that took from him his
power. But, as he wrote, he denounced
as traitors those who drove him out.
Like the old Roman who insisted
that Carthage must be destroyed.
Francisco Madero. leader of the In
surrectos, has been calling out with
an insistent cry that Diaz and the old
regime must go. With persistency
and courage that aroused the admira-
tlon of the world, he carried on the
struggle to accomplish that end Feel
ing that the people were not free, that
they were bound by traditions and
shackled TO the desires of an auto
crat. the rebels fought on and on
against the One-man power.
A fit president twenty. thirty years
ago, Diaz could not keep up with the
growth of the Mexican tendency to
absolute freedom of action, thought
and speech. Because of this he fell. No
more will he dictate the course OF the
nation he has made; no more will he
be the censor of speech and the press;
no more will he cast a husband or
son in prison. then weep on the shoul-
der of one who comes begging mercy

APPLYING EDUCATION.

In a recent Phi Beta Kappa address
at Mount Holyoke College Miss Ida NJ
Tarbell pointed out an educational
problem which is as applicable to the
training of men as women, though
perhaps not TO such large degree.
The subject OF Miss Tarbell's address
was The Woman and the Nation.
The educational problem was brought
up in connection with the thriftiness
of women; concerning it she said:
There are two factors in an in
come; the first is getting it. and the
second is using it, and it is the women
who use it. as rule; that is. the
economic function of a woman as a
rule is spending money which has
been earned by someone else. The
truth is that We have not as Yet ap-
piled ourselves scientifically and
10 the problem of thrifty
living. Our higher education helps us
very little. How many OF US were
ever taught properly to handle money?
How many of us who know how 10
handle it were not obliged to learn it
by a series of humiliating mistakes?
And yet many of us were taught all
the mathematics from primary arith-
metic to differential calculus. We
may have taken honors in geometry
and trigonometry, and know nothing
about handling our personal accounts.
This is but an example OF so much
of our education, particularly for
girls; it does not prepare them for
living We say it is a mental training,
but mental training which does not

;idual problems is as good as building

ated teaching is growing upon the
ountry."

THE DEBT OF STUDENTS.

One of the chief aims of the Univer-
sity of Missouri is to send out into
the state citizens-men and women OF
high intellect and integrity. The most
Il graduate of the school can do is to
prove that the University is making
good in its efforts to develop better
citizenship.
An alumnus of the University may
become leading lawyer, or an eff
cient engineer, teacher. doctor, farm
er. journalist or business man. 1t is
to the glory of his Alma Mater if he
does. But it is equally as fundamental,
if he is to reflect honor and credit up
on the institution. that he be a man
of moral strength and ethical prnci-
pie. The University seeks to make
men as we'll as members of the pro-
fessions.
The student is obligated to the state
for the opportunity it has offered to
him to obtain training; as a citizen
his attitude toward the state should
always recognize this debt. Private
gain may first occupy the attention |
and guide the efforts of the graduate, |
but this should not be allowed to blot |
out or dim the responsibility which |
every student upon graduation feels |
toward the institution and the state.

Prentice is dead, but the residents of

Although Prentice was a poet and

forty years afterward. In that time he
