Oriain of the "Three R,s.u

The famous toast to 'the three R's- reading, 'riting and 'rithmetic"-was made by Sir William Curtis, lord may or of London, in the year 1795 and for many years one of the wardens of the tower What made it more ludicrous was that he proposed it at a dinner given by the London hoard of educa- tion. It was received with great ap- plause and drunk amid much merri- ment. At the time it was recognized as a jest, but was afterward taken up in earnest by the mayors detractors, who have handed his name down to posterity as a biundering ignoramus. A writer has now come to his defense and says that when he was a boy an aged member of the board of education assured him that Sir William knew better and that he really used his fa- nous alliteration as a jest. To many people, however, the story will always sound better when it is based upon the belief that Sir William was really se- rious

A Record 1aiIstorm.

One of the worst hailstorms ever known in the United States occurred Sept. 5, 1898, in Nodaway county, Mis- souri. The path of the storm was about three miles wide and eighteen miles long, its greatest violence being felt over a region of four square miles east of Clarmont. At one point in this region the fall of hail was so heavy that a drift unprotected by artificial means remained lying on the ground for four weeks after the storm. At the end of that time people in the neigh borhood were found gathering the hail for the purpose of making ice cream. During the storm cylindrical pieces of ice were picked up four inches long by about two and a half in diameter. The growing corn was practically all destroyed. In a field of eighty acres only one stalk was left standing.-Chi- cago News.

sense to accept the report Of Mr.. John
c. Knudson on the Florida Land in

dispatches and learn that Congress
has set about to investigate some OF
the big land companies which have
been promoting these schemes. When
Mr.. Knudson's report was made pub
lie, Il was assailed by agents of the
company and long articles challeng'
ing the truthfulness OF some of his
statements were printed N the daily
papers of the state with view Of
restoring the confidence that receiv.

York Sun clipped from the current
number OF the Literary Digest.
These companies which are noN

Authorities, have advertised exten
