Perhaps it was his recollection of this that made him deliberately omit his sons regiment, and it alone, from his review of the troops after the summer maneuvers few weeks ago.
 This open hostility is source of poignant grief to the empress. She adores the four grandchildren he has given her She would love to have them about her. but she would never dream of questioning anything the en- peror did. Consequently, she must silently suffer her son to be banished to remote and uninteresting posts like Daptzic. Recently, however, there was what seemed on the surface a recon ciliation; the crown prince was trans ferred to Wilhelmshohe, where he and family were near the parental nest. But this transfer has served only to make more obvious to all Ger mans the mutual dislike between the emperor and his heir. The people worry much about it. They like the young man, and consider him quite capable of fighting his own battles. And they know that Kaiser Wilhelm will not mete out to the crown prince any such drastic discipline as Elector Frederick William meted out to Fred erick the Great.-New York World.

SMALL MONKEY AS A PET
Intended to Be Mascot for Politician, 1t Has Been Passed Down
 to Present Owner.

There is tiny South American ring-tailed monkey, scarcely bigger than a mans hand, in Albany, N Y. It was cast aside by William Barnes, Jr, chairman of the Republican state executive committee, who passed it along to the county headquarters, where it was in turn sent to James w. Boom of No. IS Mosher street, Albany. It was the gift of former Governor MT Barnes would have no such mas cot, and when 1t was delivered to him he cried out: Take 1t away! Take 1t away"
 For several days 1t occupied a cage at county headquarters and was fast becoming a favorite among visitors when its stay was again shortened. Lest it should not have proper care, the little animal, whose name Is Julia, was sent to MT. Boom. It is remark ably active and has the f,lll range of his premises. It climbs trees and re- turns when 1t is tired of play. One day recently 1t was perche6 on the back of MT. Boom's dog, chucpling ia great glee. The dog frolicked about the house and seemed to enjoy it's new companion as much as Julis did. It climbs up on its owners shoulders, and when he asks it to kiss him, al ways complies with the request

ChivaIrous in Face of Misfortune.

At a mass meeting recently in a nearby town an old and foremost citi zen who clings to the sartorial style of years ago, was called upon for his views on the subject in discussion, He made brief speech, and as he was compelled to hurry back to his office, he turned to the seat next to his, on which he had deposited his silk hat, just in time to see a wom an fatten it completely by sitting CD 1t.

Baby's Terror.

A baby four months old shrieked wildly whenever a doll in a magenta frock was offered to her. Another child, a little older, would burst into tears at the sound of pencil squeak. ing over slate. while another could not bear the smell of any kind of scent and would fight and cry during the whole time of her bath if she happened to be washed with scented soap.
 In a case like any one of these it Is quite useless to scold the child or reason with him. The only thing to Is to guard him as much as possible against attacks of fear and at the same time to build up his bodily health so that he may have more pow CT of resistance.

For purely material comfort, for a padded life for the rich and one with few splinters for the less fortunate, the old world offers advantages above America. says the Cleveland Leader. The chances for the education of the eye and ear in beautiful pictures and in worthy music are superior to those of this new land; the difference paid to money-even in countries supposed to be monarchial and castle-ridden- is more marked than it is here. Europe is an ideal place for those who love luxurious living and are able to pay for it.

PROUD AND GLAD" Because Mother Looked So We'll After Quitting Coffee.

An Ohio woman was almost dis tracted with coffee dyspepsia and heart trouble.
 Like thousands of others, the drug -cafeine-in coffee was slowly but steadily undermining her nervous system and interfering with natural digestion of food. (Tea is just as in- furious as coffee because it contains caffeine, the poisonous drug found in coffee.)
 For 30 years," she writes, q have used coffee. Have always been sick ly-had heart trouble and dyspepsia with ulcers in stomach and mouth so bad, sometimes, I was almost dis tracted and could hardly eat a thing for a week.
 T could not sleep for nervousness, and when l would lie down at night I'd belch up coffee and my heart would trouble me. It was like poison to me. I was thin-only weighed 125 lbs, when I quit coffee and began to use Postum.

The fact that several Nebraska young women graduating from the de- partment of agriculture at Washing, ton into places of responsibility as seed experts, some in state universi- ties, while naturally gratifying to their neighbors, is most significant in this, that it shows what d potent in- huence the government Is exerting to- ward implanting the principle of tn- tenslve agriculture, says the Omaha Bee. The first steps In the process of making two blades of grass grow where but one grew before is the proper selection of seed and proper preparation of the soil The federal government Is doing a great work, therefore, in thus fostering this move ment and cooperating In 1t with state educational institutions. Together they are making the selection of seed for agriculture and horticulture a sci ence and a business. Of course, this opens up to young men and women lu- crative fields of service, but that is only incidental to the main purpose of improving methods of farming

PARENTS AND TEACHERS.

Thousands of people are complain ing every year that the public schools are not making good" They cannot understand why the great majority of boys, after reaching the sixth or sev- enth grade. fail to pass their examin- ations, become discouraged and drop out of school, says the Columbia State. The small proportionate number of graduates they regard as proving that something is radically wrong in the scheme and methods of instruction. Not for a moment do they remember what they are asking of the schools. If they would compare their outlay for education with the outlay for heating or light ing their homes and then compare the results, they would agree that no other investment yields returns worthy to be mentioned by the side of their in vestment in the public schools, yet they insist that the schools should ac- complish for average boy or girl ten times what they do accomplish The mother or father who will give to the children in the family an hour of as sistance each day will have no reason to be disappointed with the school sys- tenn. If they will three times a year visit the schools and spend half an hour in them learning at first hand what the task of the teachers is and how much the taxpayers have asked the school system to do. they will con- clude that wonders are being achieved at nominal cost and they will be con yinced, moreover, that in respect to their own children they may not ex- pect the working of miracles unless they set themselves to do faithfully what is physically beyond the powers of the overworked teachers.
