Sounded That Way.-Miss Brow

Sounded That Way.-Miss Brown
was giving an elaborate description of
a blacksmith preparatory to teaching
Longfellow's poem to her pupils:
Now, children, we are going to learn
a poem today about some one who
works very hard. He is very large and
has great arms that can lift such heavy
things! His face is blackened with
SCOT that comes from his great, blaz-
ing fires! And he wears a dirty, black
apron and he has fire that glows, oh,
so red, and whenever he makes any
thing he puts it into his fire and then
pounds it with a great big hammer,
which makes the loudest changing
noise and makes the sparks fly about
in every direction. Now, who can tell
me what l have been describing?"
A little maid who had listened to
these vivid details with eyes twice
their natural size, sprang to her feet
and said i'm an awed whisper:
THE devil!"-Housekeepe

In discussing the business Of the

of pension systems urged upon the col
leges themselves a sense of obligation
to their. old and disabled professors
at least equal to that shown by busi-
ness corporations. The exchange of
teachers conducted through the foun-
dation sent nine American teachers
to Prussia during the year and receiv-
ed seven Prussian teachers in the Uni
ted States, in both instances with
gratifying results. A description Of

Educational Progress Reviewed.
The second part Of the report Is a
comprehensive survey by the president
of educational progress and tenden-
cies from a natural point of view.
Private and local educational initia-
tive without guidance and Federal and
state grants without supervision are
declared, to be so wasteful financi-
ally and so hurtful educationally that
agreement and cooperation must in
evitably increase. A summary Of the
organization Of the present types Of
educational systems shows a growing
tendency toward state boards or COM
missions that promises ultimately to
prevent the chartering of fraudulent
educational institutions like those in
the District of Columbia, the granting
Of public funds for private education
al ventures, as in Pennsylvania, and
the subsidizing Of educational compe-
tition, as in various southern and
western states.
The great variation in educational
efficiency that now exists is shown to
be unnecessary and wasteful. 1t is
said to be neither necessary nor de-
sirable that some states should spend
only one-eighth as much as others
per capita for education, have only
half as long a school year, enroll only
half as large a proportion of their
school children and spend only one
fifth as much in educating each teach

Shadows" as they are called, are
like poets-they are born. not made,
The shadow" must have just those
qualities that make him the least con-
spicuous man in the street He must
be man who is absolutely regular and
uninteresting, and who would never
catch your eye If you met him in the
street forty times a day. The man he
is shadowing is likely to see him many
times, so he must have the ability to
appear to be always about his own
business and oblivious Of his victim.
Yet he must have prompt judgment
and quick action, and be able to extri-
cate himself from all sorts of difficult
ties and not betray himself. Work of
all kinds has to be done, and the motto
of the secret service man is to push 1t

There was at one time much illegal
fencing Of government land for farms
i'm the state of Nebraska, for instance.
In order to determine who were the
offenders it was necessary to resurvey
great tracts Of country. Technical men
were employed, and these service
agents and detectives investigated the
illegal routes by resurveying them. AS
result many thousands of acres be-
longing to the government were found
in the possession of private individ-
uals. But the agents also go under
ground and work as miners or into
financial institutions as clerks. All
types of men are needed. and what
ever emergency is met with there Is

his little face was all red spots and

put some Cuticura Ointment on them.
