SELF-SUPPORT FOR BLIND
Maine School to Pay Them for
Work at Trades-Wiil Make Brooms
and Weave Rugs.

Portland, Me.-If the plan which
Willard w. Baldwin, the new head OF
the Maine School for the Blind In this
city, is to put into operation when
the next term OF the school opens
proves a success there will be no
blind person buried in a papuper's
grave or go to hospital as char
ity patient in the future.
This school is an industrial one,
where the blind are taught to make
brooms, cane chairs. weave rugs and
other trades such as are adaptable
to the blind. In the past those who
went there have received no compen-
sation for their labor. They were
given their board and no more.
By Mr.. Baldwin's plan each man
and woman will be paid on the piece
system. At the end of each week his
or her board will be deducted. In ad-
dition q certain per cent, according
to the amount earned, will be taken
out and deposited to the earners
credit in a savings bank. So long as
the blind person remains in the school
this money cannot be drawn from the
bank by him or her, except by the
approval of the trustees Of the
school. In this way a fund will be
created for each pupil for use In la
ter life. Another feature which will
be introduced in the school by the
new superintendent is that OF read
ing the newspapers to them A GER
tain hour will be designated, when
all will gather In the big hall Of the
school and Mr. Baldwin will read the
important news Of the day to them.
Mr.. Baldwin Is native Of the State
OF New York and was for many years
CONNECTED with the educational work
Of that state, both as a teacher and
Q supervisor OF schools. For several
years past he has been engaged In
business In Maine. but was induced to
take his present position because OF
q lifelong interest in the work OF
teaching those afflicted with loss Of
eyesight.

HAVE TIN FOR SCHWAB.

Whenever the name Of Charles M
Schwab is mentioned, even the mild
est-mannered man in the foreign con-
tingent in Pekin breaks into strings
of abuse" says a letter from there.
THE steel man, on the first day he
was in the Chinese capital, went from
his hotel to the Temple of Heaven
and back in a rickshaw. The coolies
legitimate tariff was ten cents, but
Schwab, with a flourish, handed him
SIS and walked away. Never again did
he come out Of the hotel without 1t
being necessary to call the reserves
of the Chinese police force to quell
the disturbance created by the efforts
of one hundred rickshaw men to Sc
cure him as a passenger. Moreover,
1t was not until several months later
that the other foreigners were able to
convince the coolies that the rate set
by Mr. Schwab was not a working
standard"

PRICE OF SUICIDE RISES.

A missionary in China writes that
the price of opium is now higher than
ever on account OF the stringent
measures taken by the government to
suppress the cultivation OF the poppy.
This rise in price" he says. has one
good feature. Raw opium is poison.
and when the crop is in hundreds OF
women utilize 1t as means OF ending
their troubles. Now. however. the
price is SO high that the rolls OF opium
contain only about three parts OF
opium to seven OF leather waste At
least ten such rolls are needed to pro-
duce death, and each roll costs ten
cash. or one cent The price OF sui
eide by opium is. therefore. ten cents.
which is much more than most OF
those desiring death can possibly
scrape together. In other words, sui
eide is now luxury which only a few
can AFFORD"

OFFIcIAlISM IN GERMANY.

1t is estimated that an eighth OF the

state or municipal employees. The

the state and municipal officials alone
at 100000 But these 100000 were
all officials" in the strict sense; and
did not include 100000 state railway
employees who are only workers; and
also excluded the vast majority of mu-

Agricultural Department an Aid to Housewives

Commercial industries were long
ago studied by scientific methods.
since it was found that gaining knowl-
edge by experience was much more
costly than gaining 1t by systematic
study 1t is only lately that we have
come to realize that 1t is equally
profitable to study the housekeepers'
problems
Fifty years ago few such ques-
lions had been taken to the labora-
tory and few schools gave instruction
in such subjects. Today very many
men and women of scientific trainin g
have taken the home problem to the
laboratory and are finding ways of
helping the housekeeper to solve her
problems satisfactorily.
THE department of agriculture has
studied many questions which relate
TO the use of agricultural products on
the farm and in the home. but per
haps none Of them has a closer re-
lation to the household than the nu-
triton Investigations OF the Office of
experiment stations. which have to do
with the use of agricultural products
as human foods and whose object is
TO help the housewife in her efforts
to provide good living at reasonable
cost, without undue labor"

Scientists Believe There Is Reason for Bugs

farm OF the department OF agricul-
ture."
The farmers OF Vienna intend to
call at the farm and make sure that
accommodations have been made for
the safekeeping OF the bugs.
Some OF Uncle Sans scientists be-
lieve there Is reason for bedbugs
and IN they manage to substantiate
this theory they intend to put them
to work at a more gratuitous task
than that upon which they are gener-
ally engaged.
There Is a theory that most self
respecting species OF bugs will have
no dealings with bedbugs-in fact.
they will not live in the same neigh
borhood.
This theory is based upon two as
symptoms The first is that bedbugs
are scrappers and beat up and kill
anything else that happens to cross
their way In bugdom.
Now the department OF agriculture's
scientists have about decided which
bugs do the most damage to fruit
trees. These experiments have been
carried on at the Lewis farms for
many months. The most deadly bugs.
as far as fruit is concerned. have been
segregated in boxes and bottles.
The bedbugs are to be introduced
to these select fruit killers and then
the scientists are going to see what
happens.
II the bedbugs carry off the hon
ors Uncle Sam may try to induce
them to leave their present abodes for
fruit orchards.

VALUABLE FIND OF OAK.

A rich find OF black oak has just
been made on a farm near Hull. Eng
land. The farm recently changed
hands, and the new owners decided to
clear away wood which stood upon
1t. IN excavating to remove tree roots
the workmen discovered several
trunks of black bog oak, and further
Investigations revealed hundreds Of
trunks of oak under the ground. They
were in splendid condition, and had
evidently been buried a century or
more. 1t is customary to bury oak in
order to turn it black and thus in
crease its value. Evidently that had
been done in this case, but the death
or removal Of the proprietor Of the
farm caused it to be forgotten, and 1t
lay undisturbed, and other trees were
planted on the top of it. So great is
the quantity and so compactly is 1t
buried that explosives are being used
to loosen it. The value of the oak is
believed to be considerable.
