Gaming INTO His Own.

The address Of President Henry
wallace at the opening Of the Con-
~serYation Congress j Kansas City,
Mo-, was a most able q IN every
respect The advice which he gave,
lie followed, would be sure to lead to
better conditions.
Mr. Wallace believes that there is
great social and Industrial awaken
ing at hand. He says:
"The farmer is beginning to mag
Nifty his Office to cut loose from par
tisan bias, to do his own thinking
and act for himself. He is paying
better salaries to his school teachers
and insisting that the teachings have
some relation to the life on the farm.
He is buying his own automobiles.
and paying cash for them. He is be-
ginning to realize that farm life is
essentially different from the life of
the town. The movement to organize
country life clubs is spreading. The
boys and girls are organizing for
games. The country church is begin
ming to realize its missions, and in
several states country preachers are
taking short courses IN agricultural
college in order that they may teach
morals ana TO IN III
terms Of their daily life,
There is no reason to doubt that but
the back to the farm" movement is
gaining ground every day. The peo-
pie are beginning to realize that the
future of the country, depends upon
the cultivation Of the soil. The far
mers. too, are beginning to realize
that the country is dependent upon
them.
The farmer is coming to his own
Exchange.

A Beavers Working-Day.

Aeyoung beaver IN Regents Park
Gardens, London, was one placed at
work upon a tree IL feet long and 2
feet 6 inches thick. just as the town
clock sounded the hour of o The
beaver began by barking the tree a
foot above the ground. That done, he
attacked the wood. He worked hard,
alternating his labor with dips in his
bathing pond. He bathed and labored
alternately until 4 o'clock in the af-
ternoon, when he ate his supper Of
bread and carrots and padded about
in his pond until half-past 5 o'clock.
Ten minutes later, when only one
inch of the trees diameter remained
intact, he bore upon his work, and the
tree fell. Before it fell the beaver
ran as men run when they have fired
a blast. Then, as the tree lay on the
ground, he portioned it cut mentally
and again began to gnaw.
He worked at intervals all night;
cut the log into three parts rolled
two of the portions into the water.
and reserved the ether third for his
permanent shelter. The work done
he took a bath.-Harper's Weekly.

Dreaded Premature Burial.

M~eyerbeer. like many other notable
people, went in dread Of premature
burial and left the most elaborate d.
rections with a view to preventing
such a contingency. MY body Is to
remain untouched for a period Of four
days after my death is certified. with
the face uncovered and in exactly the
same position as at me time l am sup
posed to have passed away. On the
fifth day incisions are to be made In
the throat and In the feet" He also
directed that two men should be ap-
pointed to watch over him day and
night in case he should give any
signs Of life and that bells should be
attached to his hands and feet.

The capture on a South sea
island of a fugitive swindler
from Germany shows how USE
less it is in this twentieth cen
fury for an alleged yiolator OF
the law to seek safety in flight
to other lands. The nations OF
the world have been brought
much closer together by steam
and electricity, and they have al
so learned that a country which
offers refuge to criminals from
other countries is lpjuring itself
as we'll as society in general. The
more debased and ignorant ma
tions which are not impressed by
the moral aspect of the question
are often led by fear Of punish
men,, or desire to stand well
with the great civilized powers,
to surrender fugitive criminals
upon demand being made by the
government from whose juris-
diction they had fled. Thus
there is no security from capture
anywhere, provided the author
tiles where the crime is commit
ted are willing to incur the ex-
pense Of pursuit. Columbian
