after having received only a common
school education, that he would have
to be a farmer. He determined to
be good one. This point settled
he bought his farm and set out to
build 1t up and make it pay A
measure of what he has accomplished
may be found not only in the success
of the farm itself, but also in the fact
that the owner has been called to the

MAKING A COMMON

is said of T. E. Martin of Monroe coun-

great. A part of Martins story fol-
laws:
'In 1892, Martin, who was then a
very young man, bought a fifty-seven-
acre farm for $4,000. He paid $4,000
all the money he had in cash, and
gave a mortgage ON the place for the
balance. Whereupon some of his
neighbors chuckled and observed
waggishly among themselves that
Martin could have bought just as good

town for the same money.

New York.-A good-looking, easy
talking young man whose only books
were books on crooks was arraigned
recently in the Fifth avenue police
court in Brooklyn. The prisoner, Hen
ry Melting, was held without bail by
Magistrate Geismer for the grand
jury. Three women whose houses had
been robbed appeared as complain
ants against him. When he was ar
rested the sleuths found three shelves
Of books in his home and every vol
1me had to do with some phase OF
crime. Complaints from householders
who had been robbed began to come
into the Fourth avenue police station
In the midle Of March and Detectives
Oittman, Dryer, Hyland and De Mar
lini were todd to snoop around Bay
Ridge and find what they could find.
The pilfering and the complaints
went right on, howeer, until about
ten days ago, when Dittmann met a
woman who told him something that
interested him. She said a man had
driven up to her house and asked her
If she wanted any oil. She had seen
him selling oil around the neighbor-
hood. She told him that she didn't
need any oil and went back to the
kitchen. She came to the front part
Of the house little later and found
him standing in the hall. She ASKED
him what he was doing and he told
her that he had made mistake and
withdrew, murmuring apologies.
Dittmann went around to the retail
oil company that supplies that section
of Bay Ridge and got the names Of
their drivers. He watched them and
last week he learned that Melting
who was one of them, was spending
money pretty freely and working ir
regularly.
The sleuths went to Nelling's hom'
on Friday afternoon, and while two o
them talked to Nelling's wife, telliAt
her that they were tenement-house In
spectors, the other two walked int
Nelllng's room. The first thing Dit
man noticed was a fancy handker
chief that bulged atop a bureau. HI

THE BEST SCHOOL.

The best school for your boy
is one where he will hear less
about making a success by this
or that manner Of making a liv-
ing than he will hear about the
making Of his living Of the hu-
man life a grand thing. If you
want your boy to be a great
this or that-engineer, physician
or even minister-whatever 1t Is
send him where he first will
be made manly, scholarly and
heroic. The finest trained abil-
ity toward something in partic-
ular Is obtained by training a
mans ability toward this one
general thing-h.s being a good
and forceful man. The vice
hiding within the present cry for
immediate assets in education
will be seen all too soon in the
fact that we will have on our
hands a lot of human tools only.
There will be nobody who has
symmetry Of character and
strength of personality to ham
die these tools. DO you seek an
opening for your son? Here will
be one. Give your boy chance
to be a man first. The rest will
follow.-Frank W. Gunsaulus.

which Nordau rightly calls spe-
cies Of self torture. If Israel
continually wall against the lot
which makes it seem impossible
for us to be the masters of our
fates we shall ultimately cease
to be the captains Of our own
souls. The dignity Of Jewish life
is less marred by baseless at
tack from without than by cease
less self conscious babble with

today Of paying more attention
to what others are saying against
Us than to what we are doing
for ourselves. The wrong done
