enough to see which was the weaker
party. With the zeal of Don Quix-
ote he fell in with the hard-pressed
| legion of strangers and turned the
Turkish lance and shield toward an
unknown enemy in behalf of an equally
unknown ally.
1t turned out that the smaller army
was that of Ala-un-Din, the SeIuk
Sultan of Asia Minor, and the enemy
was a Mongol chief leading band of
marauders. For services that trans
formed defeat into victory Ala-ud-Din
granted Er-Toghrul a tract of land on
the Byzantine frontier, including the
cities of Sugut and Eski Shehr. This
bit of soil was the foundation stone of
the Ottoman Empire" so called by
Europeans because the race derived
its name "Osmanli' from Osman, son
of Er-Toghrul, whose conquests of sew
eral Greek cities won him the title
of beg" and the drum and horse
tail standard symbolizing princely
rank.
Such was the heroic beginning of the
Ottoman Empire, which, in the Seven
teenth century planned the conquest
of Germany and the establishment of
an Ottoman province between the Dan
ube and the Rhine, and in pursuance
of the plan Sent an army of a half mil
lion as far west as the walls of Vienna
The Turkish Empire, whose beleag-
uered capital is about to fall, has pro-
duced numerous leaders of heroic mold,
but its latter days have marked it as
representing Osman, whose name
meant Ozone breaker" rather than
the knightly Er-Toghrul. History Of
fers no example Of the decline and fall
of an empire whose passing caused less
regret and left fewer glorious tradi-
tons than that of Turkey would. In
modern times the Turks have reversed
the policy of Suleyman Shah and
struck only those they believed to be
cripples.-EX.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inilamed con-
diton of the mucous lining Of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its
normal condition, hearing will be de-
stroyed forever; nine cases cut of ten
are caused 10y Catarrh, which is moth
ing but an infamed condition of the
mucous surfaces.

Iliteracy in the United States de-
clined from 10,7 per cent in 1900 to
IT. per cent in 1910. In some Of the
Northern States the proportion Of il
literates is as low AS per cent and in
some instances even lower.
In the South the illiteracy percent
age is highest, but census figures indi-
cate clearly that progress toward bet
ter education is being made in all
sections Of the country. There is inn
provement with every successive gen
GRAFTON Of children. In 1910 the mum
Der Of children between the ages Of IL
and u, classcd as illiterates, was
$40, l20. OF these only l4l,G59 were
whites, the remainder being Negroes,
Indians, Chinese and japanese. The
Census Bureau CLASHES as illiterates
"persons who cannot read and write
AS there are many persons who can
read but cannot write, the census fig
ures do not show he real extent Of the
progress that is being made in the
elimination Of ignorance.
In the meantime there is rapid
growth Of institutions for manual, in
dustrial and technical education. In
the last decade even States have APP
pointed special commissions for the
study Of industrial education. Another
factor for better education is the cor
respondence schools which, in the last
ten or twelve years, have assumed
large proportions. In all probability
another decade will show greater adj
vancement than was ever shown in any
similar period toward the conquest OF
illiteracy.

LITERATURE FOR ALL MOODS
That Is What Librarians Are Expected
to Select for Their Exacting
Patrons.

Infinite are the requirements and
profound the judgment of librarians.
The other day a little girl who does
the family marketing rushed into a
branch library with the announce
ment that the sewing society was 60
ing to meet at her mothers house that
afternoon and wouldn't the librarian
please send around a book suitable
for the elocutionists of the circle to
read aloud while the others worked.
The young woman appealed to sent
the sequel to particularly charming
story that had beguiled the tedium Of
that same circle on previous after
noon. In short while the little girl
returned the book
"Ma says this amt the kind of a
story they need today" she said.
They amt workin' on baby clothes
and shirtwaists today. They're darn
in mems socks and mendin' shirts.
and they want something suitable"
There was consultation of librar-
ians. Just what kind Of literature
would fit the mental attitude of women
engaged in darning socks and mend
ing shirts was a question hitherto I'M
considered. They decided on wo-
mans rights pamphlet called "The
Eternal Warfare" Apparently it
suited, for the child did not bring it
back.

HOW MOUNTAINS WERE NAMED
Interesting to Trace Derivation OF
the Famous Ranges of This
Country.

Adirondacks: Derived from the Ca
nienga (Mohawk) Iroquois language,
in which the original form is ratiron-
talks, meaning bark eaters"
Allegheny: A corruption OF the Del
aware Indian name for Allegheny and
Ohio rivers, the meaning OF the name
being lost
Appalachian: The name was given
by the Spaniards under DeSoto, who
derived it from the name OF neigh
boring tribe, the Apalachi. Brinton
holds its radical to be the Muscogee
apala, great sea-" or great ocean,"
and that apalache Is compound OF
this word with the Muscogee personal
participle Chi" and means those by
the sea-"
Blue Ridge. SO called from the hue
which frequently envelopes its distant
SUBMITS.
Catskili: The mountains were called
katsbergs by the Dutch. from the mum
Der OF wildcats found in them, and the
creek, which flows from the noun
tans, was called Katerskill, "tomcats'
creek"
Ozark: The aux arcs was said to re.
fer to the bends in White river, and
was applied to the Ozark mountains,
through which the river pursues a
wandering course--in other words, to
the mountains at the bends of the
river.

THURSDAY, MOVES, 1912.

The raising of cattle and other live
stock, which was for many years the
chief industry in Texas, is waning.
The Texas Welfare Commission has
found that in the last decade the sup
ply of cattle in Texas decreased more
than 1900, 600 head, while in the same
period the population of the State in
creased nearly 100000,
- There also has been heavy decline
in the number Of sheep IN Texas, and
the State has barely held its own in
the number of hogs. The Welfare
Commission believes "there is no valid
reason why there should be a pound OF
meat shipped into Texas" Neverthe-
lefs Texas is importing So2,OOO,0OO
worth of meats annually, and the pack
king houses are showing decrease in
the number of hogs handled. The
commission is urging the farmers OF
Texas to raise more livestock; to i'm
prove the breeds and grades to the
best possible standard; to build silos
for the better feeding and finishing OF
live stock for the markets, and to dis
continue the wholesale marketing OF
calves.
In the face of such showing from
the greatest cattle State in the Union
it is not surprising that the consumer
in recent years has been faced with
constantly increasing prices for meats
In the United States as whole there
has been a decrease in the number OF
cattle in the last decade, while at the
same time there was large increase
in population. In Texas, as the Wei
fare Commission puts it, 1.-THE gap be
tween production and consumption is
rapidly widening" This is also true OF
the country at large. The census OF
1910 showed fewer cattle, sheep and
swine than the census of 1900. During
the decade there was great increase
in the value of these animals on the
farms, not so marked, however, in the
case of cattle as in sheep, hogs and
other domestic animals. There is not
much comfort in these figures, and
facts for the ultimate consumer, who
has been laying all his troubles at the
door Of the Beef Trust and hoping for
eventual relief from high prices
