the Inauguration of such system
will receive the hearty approval OF
every citizen in the state, who
stands for greater and better things
The elevating effect of this I'M
usual procedure will be far reach

of the institutions cannot help being
felt at once. 1t is a fine thing for
the state to have within its oord'

fortunate in having at its head such
a man as Supt Barss, who. while he
knows the faults and crimes for
which his charges are put under his
care, he realizes they are boys who
may be only a little hayward, not
bad at heart, not vicious, but who
have come under wrong influences
and have lost their balance for the
time being and the school at Yer.

Barss just the man to give them

Farm, Colleges and Automobiles

George AIDE is chiefly known as a
humorist He is also a farmer out
in Indiana, and is authority for the
sober statement that he does not
have to write jokes or indulge in any
other of the varieties of literature
which are indigenous TO Indiana to
keep the farm going. On the con-
trary, Mr.. AIDE, who is a trustee of
Purdue university and has had a
hand in establishing an agricultural
department has done so well with
his corn and oats that he is going
abroad for a couple of months, and,
reaching New York on his way, has
given a mighty interesting account
of agriculture in the middle west.
Mr.. AIDE declares that the great in
crease in the price of farming lands
in Indiana during the last Is years
"a raise from $50 to 5000 an acre
has been chiefly due to the demon
stration that the corn belt could
not be extended But as second
airy cause he refers especially to
the increasing popularity OF the ag
ricultural college through the mid
die West. the university of Wiscon-
sin setting the pace. "Out there"
said Mr.. AIDE, when a boys father
owns as much as 200 acres of good
land, the youngster has no ambition
TO be lawyer or doctor, or some
thing else which usually involves
long struggle with hardships before
any real money can be earned" In
stead the boy is described as going
TO the agricultural school of the uni
versity of Wisconsin. or of Ames,
Iowa or Purdue, and men coming
back to cultivate the family land on
scientific principles. Soon he is
flying around in automobiles which
he has paid for in increased profits
from the paternal acres"
This is very idyllic, and doubtless
much of It true. But, in spite of
the much-vaunted scientific training,
there must occasionally be a time
when the youth with the scientific
equipment has to bow before practi-
cal experience and horse sense. An
amusing French play a few years
since described the experiences of
a humble citizen whose daughter,
after being educated by the state,
undertook to revolutionize the agri-
cultural methods on the family hold
ing, but whose efforts came wholly
to grief through the slight msloca-
ton of a decimal point Instead of
enriching the ground. her illproport-
Toned composition hade IL barren as a
billiard ball, with the result that
her parent conceived a grievance
against the government.
While It might be a corrective to
the sense Of proportion to hear of
such a thing once in a while. there
can apparently be no question that
scientific methods of farming have
done much to make agriculture in
creasingly attractive at a time when
the drift TO the cities is especially to
be contended with. But If anyone
supposed that farming. after meth
DDS however approved is life OF
luxurious leisure. let him take coun.
sci with the gentleman" farmer

and do his own work without re-

EXPERIENCE
OF motherhood
Advice to Expectant Mothers

The experience of Motherhood is try
ing one to most women and marks dis
tinctly an epoch in their lives. Not one
woman in hundred is prepared or I'M
derstands how to properly care for her
self. Of course nearly every woman
nowadays has medical treatment at such
times, but many approach the expert
ence with an organism untitled for the
trial of strength, and when it is over
her system has received shock from
which it is hard to recover. Following
right upon this comes the nervous strain
of caring for the child, and distinct
change in the mother results.
There is nothing more charming than
happy and healthy mother of children,
and indeed child birth under the right
conditions need be no hazard to health or
beauty. The unexplainable thing is
that, with all the evidence of shattered
nerves and broken health resulting from
an unprepared condition, and with am.
pie time in which to prepare, women
will persist in going blindly to the trial.
Every woman at this time should rely
upon. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound, most valuable tonic and
invigorator of the female organism.

iovable. But beyond this, what sort
Of man was he? Agatha could not
tell. She had seen many men of many
types. and perhaps she recognized
James as belonging to type; but
II 30. 1t was the type that stands
for the best of New England stock.
In the centuries back 1t may have
brought forth fanatics and extrem-
lists; at times 1t may have built up
its narrow walls of prejudice and
pride; but at the core 1t was sound
and manly, and responsive to the
call Of the spirit.
Something of all this passed
through Agatha's mind. as she tried
to read Jim's face; then, as he stirred
uneasily and tried to throw off the
light boughs that she had spread over
him. she got up and went to the edge
of the water to moisten afresh the
bandage for his forehead. Involuntar-
lily she shuddered at sight of the dark
water. though the tapping waves,
pushing up farther and farther with
the incoming tide. were gentle
enough to soothe a child.
She hurried back to Jim's couch
and laid the cooling compress across
his forehead. The balsam boughs
about them breathed their fragrance
on the night air, and the pleasant
gloom rested their tired eyes. Grad
ually he quieted down again: his rest
lessness ceased. The long twilight
deepcned into darkness, or rather into
that thin luminous blue shade which
is the darkness of starlit summer
nights. The sea washed the beach
with its murmuring caress; some
where in the thicket above a night
bird called.
In a Granny of the rocks Agatha
followed out the sand, still warm be-
meath the surface here where the sun
had lain on 1t through long summer
days, and made for herself a bed and
coverlet and pillow all at once. With
the sand piled around and over her,
she could not really suffer; and she
was mortally tired.
She looked up toward the clear
stars. Vega and the 1eweled cross al
most in the zenith, and ruddy Antares
in the body of the shining Scorpion.
They we're watching her. she thought.

Something Seemed Lacking.

One of the best known London
newspapers. in a review of Lincoln 8
Own Stories" collected by Anthony
Gross, commented on the anecdote
which Lincoln was fond of telling of
family of such migratory habits
that they were able to get everything
into one wagon, and even the chick
ems were SO used to being moved that
whenever they saw the wagon sheets
brought out they laid themselves on
their backs and crossed their legs,
ready to be tied. The British review
er, with an insular sense of humor,
remarked: Zone feels little as
though something must have been ac-
cidentally left out Of this and of many

Tried Trick Once Too often

A man OF seventy-five, who OF re.
cent years had extorted money from
charitable persons. IN Paris. by pre-
tending to commit suicide. has fallen
victim to his ingenuity. He used to
fasten rope. attached to the ceiling,
about his neck with an easy running
moose. Then. having knocked over
the furniture. he would overturn the
chair on which he was standing and
remain hanging by the rope. Alarm
ed by the noise. the neighbors would
rush In and cut him down. After be.
ing revived he would depict his state
of distress in such moving language
that money would be Forthcoming for
his relief. Later he would repeat the
trick in another house. Invariably
with success. But few days ago.
when he was carrying out the trick,
there was a hitch. No one went to
his help and he remained hanging,
being eventually cut down dead.

She caught the voice family, as II
it were a child's cry.
I'm right here. yes; only wait Just
second" She could not instantly
free herself from her sandy coverings,
but she was wide awake almost at
the first words James had spoken
Faint as the voice had been, she
recognized the natural tones, the
strongest he had uttered since coming
out of the water.
The night had grown cold and dark,
and at first she was a trifle bewilder-
ed. She was also stiff and sore, al.
most beyond bearing. She had to
creep along the sand to where Jim
lay. The fire had burned wholly out,
and the sand felt damp as she crawled
over 1t. When she came near, she
reached out her hand and laid it on
Jim's forehead. He was shivering
with cold.
You poor man! And / sleeping
while l ought to be taking care OF
YOU! I'll make the fire and get some
milk: there is still little left"
AS she tried to make her aching
bones lift her to her feet, she became
aware that the man was fumbling at
his coverings and trying to say some
thing. She bent down to hear his
words. which were incredibly faint
Il don't want any fire or any milk
