A French woman wants the govern
ment to enlist women in the army.
She explains she does not think their
place is on the firing line, but in 9TH
er positions where they can make
themselves useful. In all fields of
womanly activities in war time, wom-
en- have not waited for government So
licitation or for remuneration, but have
been brave and invaluable volunteers.
They have even gone on the firing
line, not to kill, but to save where
it has been possible. There is no
war in history without it's record OF
devoted women lighting for and not
against humanity.

A contract agent for an electric con-
Germ has invented what he calls a
"cent-hour" meter designed to give a
positive answer to the question, How
much does it cost to operator" The
meter is mounted on pedestal with
q shelf attached on which the device
is placed When any current consum-
ing appliance is connected with the
meter a hand on the dial points in
stantly to the number of cents per
hour it costs to operate it. 1t is espe-
cially useful in demonstrating to a
prospective consumer the cost of cur
rent for a device that consumes en-
ergy at more than one rate. Expert
ence has shown that this method Of
answering most important question
has more weight with the customer
than a verbal reply. The reading of
the dial of each meter is made to cor
respond with the central stations rate
for current.

EDUCATION AND VALUES.

GDOASA IATN fAlNG NFNGO 6Ss
A western university has gathered
an array of figures and a volume CT
information and arrived at the con-
clusion that the average value OF a
college education is $4,000. If one
goes to college, therefore, and is just
average he will have $4,000 more in
his pockets some day than he would
have had if he had gone to work four
years sooner All of which is nom
sense. The measuring of the value OF
an education in terms of dollars and
cents is a false mensuration, and the
last one which a university should lay
stress. says the Cleveland Plain
Dealer. Such attempts as this give.
the foreign critics of our educational
ideals ground for their sneers at our
diploma factories" The old bour-
geois question, will a college educa-
ton enable my son to make the bust
ness pay better than my experience
has done?" is a natural one with a
certain type of mind, but it betrays
a total ignorance of what education
means and what it seeks. Education
and technical training are two differ
ent things, though they can and should
both be acquired.

Our experience with bind-weeds Is
that spring blowing and persistent use
of the cultivator only serve to spread
the roots over greater areas.
The lowlands where the bind-wed
flourishes are also suitable for alfalfa.
We find that between the cuttings OF
alfalfa the bind-weed has no opportu-
nifty to seed, and in a few years a
plant can hardly be found in an alfalfa
field.
The bind-weed, when once establish
ed in a field, is there to stay or put
up a strenuous fight, and no halfway!
methods will accomplish anything in
the way of getting rid Of THIS pest.
When blowing or cultivating through
small spots of morning glory, it pays
to clean the pillow or cultivator OF all
roots to prevent the spreading OF the
growth of new plants.
The use Of the disk harrows and
disk cultivators will help to prevent
the spread of this pest.

CITY Of BENARE
Scenes on the Banks of the Sa'
cred GAnges.
Bathers In the River-The Devotion
of the Hindus-The Regeneration
of India-Religlous Ideas
Along Waterway.

London-At Benares you realize
that Hinduism is a living thing, and
it presents itself with a beauty and
pathos which are astonishing to the
visitor who has thought of it only as
antiQuated idolatry.
Just now the Gauges is low, and
the long flights of steps, the CHATS, are
bare almost to the bottom, but in the
ruined colonnades and embankments
and O. temple actually slidden into the
water the power and ravages of the
river in fiod are seen. We embark on
q miniature boathouse, and seat our
selves on the roof; and we are slowly
rowed up the stream, as far as the
tree-covered terrace where Warren
Hastings took refuge from the out
ragged people Of the city; then down
the stream to the mosque with its tall
minarets which Aurungzeb erected to
fiout the Hindus and rebuke their
idolatry. But neither Warren Hast
ings nor Aurungzeb, neither MOsle0
nor Christian, neither east nor west,
has made any appreciable change In
the customs, the rites, the religious
ideas which find their picturesque ex-
preston in that mile or more of river
front.
The bank Is steep and rises to the
height of 200 feet On it rise temples,
with their carved sikras and gilded
SUBMITS, jumbled together with pal
aces, fiat rooted, piled high on solid
and imposing battlements, and med
ley of steps and terraces, and gate
ways, through which the river Is
reached from the city. The buildings
are yellow, or terra Gotta colored
gilded, and otherwise, so that the eff
feet is hardly less beautiful than that
of the Grand canal. Sacred bulls are
tethered in many places, to which the
people salaam. Everywhere are the
gay colors in which India delights
Garments of bright orange, blue, mag
enta, iris colors, and dazzling white
make the whole scene brilliant in the
morning sun.

brellas, comfortable and serene, exact

The average weight of these splen-
did horses was about 1900 pounds
each, but the remarkable part Of the
business was that these two youngs
vigorous stations were working quiet

them under perfect control, but they
had been worked the same as the
two-year-olds, and had become used
to farm labor by degrees.

Here a long row of women with g. man
or two crouches on the very brink;
and a Brahmin priest, naked but for
loin cloth, passes from one to another
and gives them the sacred mark. They
put the water of the river on his feet
and kiss them; then they drink the
water which has touched him from
their hands. One woman rises up
her arms straight above her head, and
makes obeisance. The priest gives
them some directions-mutters his
mantras-and waves his hands in to
ken of dismissal.
Though it is not easy to distinguish
the ordinary washing and bathing
from the sacred function, there is
enough of the manifested act of wor'
ship to give to the scene an air OF
solemnity. Men and women are mix
ed, but no one regards any one else
Each is engaged in his own ablution
physical or spiritual. Here a woman
crouches, splashipg the water on he1
face and making mystical marks on
forehead and breast. Here a man
stands in the water, revolving anc
folding his hands together each time

Here is another man in a red cloak
standing up to his waist and mutter

stands daily from 8 a. m. to noon

eyes are bleared with the sun, all ex
preston has left his face. He is like
mechanism of devotion. a..1
In another place young men, NUT
tering their prayers, plunge into the
stream and return to their little
matted platforms. There must be
three dips to accomplish the necessar!

through the narrow street they shrinl
from contact with the passerby, for l
they touch they must return and re

Jake Oppenheimer, Noted Grim

Folsom, Cal.-"Jake" Oppenheimer,

of his murderous ferocity, was put to
death on the gallows here for the MUIR
der of a fellow-convict in FOLSOM
prison.
Oppenheimer was probably one OF
the most remarkable criminals of the
age. He had at least four murders
to his credit and innumerable murder
Gus assaults. He commenced us
criminal career when boy. DIS

sentence was given him because or

named Ross testified against Open

Man Tiger 'swore to be revenged.
! Not long after Oppenheimer's ar
rival at Folsom prison, Ross was sent
there as a convict. Oppenheimer wait

interfere. A short time later Open
heimer murdered guard named NC
| Donald. AS punishment he was placed
in solitary confinement, but obtaining
a file he made his way out and at
tackled a fellow-convict named John
Wilson with butcher knife. Wilson
died few days later.
In 1901 the state legislature passed
law imposing the death penalty upon
any prisoner who should make an as
sault upon a prison official or fellow
prisoner. Under this law, Oppenhe1
mer was tried in October, 1907, fol
the murder of Wilson. He was found
guilty, and was sentenced to die on
June 6, 1908.
Apparently supplied with plenty OF
money, Oppenheimer fought his case
all the way up to the Supreme court
of the United States, but finally lost

freedom by writ of habeas corpus. but

/ While awaiting the decision of the
courts in his efforts to save himself
