The Best Blood for the Farm.
From the woman's World.

From the Womans World.
Not only does the nation and the race
need to take an interest in eugenics, but
new ideals need to be inculcated in the
people. We have had campaigns by phi
lanthropists reiterating the cry Back to
the landr' The broader call is instead
; for only the best stocks of people to
return to the farm. There has been too
much of a tendency to induce the de-
fective, the unfortunate, the inefficient
or the positively vicious to return to the
land where they might better carry on
the struggle for existence. Shall we take
these people from the slums OF our cities
and place them where are found the best
opportunities for multiplying the race, or
shall we rather induce the people of the
best heredity to occupy the farm homes
with families of splendid heredity? This,
I take it, is our greatest need and the
line along which our best national
thought and public action should make
its first endeavors.
We cannot hope to prevent many pecul-
iarly gifted people from leaving the open
country for the centers of population
where their opportunities for service and
advantages are multiplied. We can,
however, induce these same highly effi-
cient people to have their family homes
in the suburbs where conditions favor
the reproduction of their kind. But the
larger problem is so to organize country
life that the farm homes will be peopled
by the blood OF tfhe best one-fourth or
One-half of the race.

An effective dishwasher for family
use has been put on the market by a
New York man. 1t is so easily manip-
ulated that child can run It, and
there is no danger of the china becom-
ing nicked in the process. A circular
metal receptacle has perforated cylin-
der running up the center in which is
a close fitting piston operated by a
pump handle. A hinged lid, fitting SO
close as to be water tight, covers the
receptacle. At the bottom of the tub,
If 1t may be so called, are circular
ratings to hold plates and saucers, ar
ranged on their edges, and above this
is rack to hold cups, etc. The silver
stands up inside smaller railing that
encircles the cylinder. A teakettle of
boiling water is poured into the cylin-
der and the lid closed. The piston is
pressed down, and the water is spray
ed out over the dishes. The piston is
raised, and the water is sucked into the
cylinder again for a repetition of the
operation. The whole machine rests
on metal stand with casters.

making his life miserable by their I'M

ever badly he felt, was not going to be

From that time young George, In

envy Of the other boys. The part of
the story that most interests us is that
Lincoln at this anxious time, amid the
thousand things demanding his at
tention, should have found time to
heed the unimportant request of a
schoolboy. 1t shows us very plainly
that Lincoln hated injustice, however

these for delivering the valentines.
Stick the missive on the point Of the

Have all the valentines original and
use them for pairing Off your friends
The more absurd the rimes the bet
