1t is constantly said that in CO.
operation the American farmer will
find help in increasing the profits of
the farm But this preaching has not
yet made converts to anything like the
desired extent, partly because of the
unwillingness of our farmers to ven
ture on new and untried methods, both
of production and distribution, and
partly because of ignorance of the re-
suits already gained in other coun-
tries.
In order to gain and then to diff
fuse reliable knowledge as to the
working of cooperation on the farm
an American commission has been
appointed, which will leave New
York on April rs on a 80 days
tour through all the European
states, including especially Germany,

Spelling the School Broth.

The Ladies' Home journal has been
trying for several months now to impress
the idea on the minds of parents the
American public schools are complete fail
ures. 1t has taken those things which
people have discussed more or less SER
ionsly for some years and presented them
in the form of crying needs, insistent
problems, matters which-if not set right
at once--wlll bring the republic tottering
down to ruin.
The fault with the Ladies' Home Jour-
nal, as we see it is that it treats this
science of education as simple thing,
one that busy parents are naturally bound
to know more about than teachers. Now
as matter of fact none has known the
faults of education, none has realized
them so keenly as the teachers have.
They have been discussing the flaws in
their professional magazines so long that
no one knows when the thing began.
Their meetings are not meetings for self
praise, for the recitation OF their honorable
traditions, for social reunions They
meet to thrash out the difficulties of their
profession and we doubt if at any meet
ing of lawyers, or doctors, or manufac-
turers. or merchants, there is such
straight talking and such keen, razor
edged self-criticism.
The truth of the matter is that educa-
ton is an exceedingly implicated sub
iect, There are no absolute rules, work
ing everywhere and under all conditions
No one has found the perfect system.
But educators are hunting for it, and they
are far more likely to find it than par
entH, under fhe spur of the Ladies' Home
Journal, are likely to design it out OF a
combination OF cocksuredness and parent
love.
Hadn't the subject better be left with
those who know most about it? The
broth can be spoiled not only by too
many cooks. Ignorant cooks, even If few
il number, can spoil it.

GETTING OLD TOO SOON.
youths Companion. J

We often hear it SAID by scientific men
that human beings get old too quickly
and die too soon. Since everything that
has life in due time grows old and dies,
we must conclude that nature intends
man to die also. But what is due time. !"
The scientific men say that the race
dose not enjoy its full allowance Of life
and that instead of growing old in the
land which the Lord our God gives US, !"
we perish prematurely there, chiefly by
reason of our own blindless and self-in-
diligence.
When we look into the cases of persons
who have lived to great age and enjoy
ed good health all through life we gen
orally find that they were born of
healthy and long-lived parents and that
they themselves led rather abstemious
lives lmost alwaye we learn that ''they
did not worry"
When DR.. Harvey wrote his report
on the death of "Old Parr," who is said
to have lived to the age of 1872 years, he
used the phrase "sorry fare, but free
from care" The absence Of worry as an
aid to long life was as well understood
then as it is today.
In recent book on the subject of de-
ferring old age the writer declares that
by following carefully the rules OF hygiene
we can preserve our youth until the age
OF so and live for 100 years or even more.
Among the rules he gives are these.
Be as much in the open air as possible,
take plenty of exercise and above all
breathe deeply and regularly. Live on a
simple diet, eat meat only once day and
take care to chew your food thoroughly.
Go to bed early and rise early; sleep in a
dark and quiet room with open windows
and take never less than six or more
than seven and half hours if you are a
man, or more than eight and half hours
if you are woman. Avoid IVORY about
things that have happened and cannot be
helped or that may happen and cannot
be foreseen and be temperate to abstem-
iousness in the use of alcohol, tobacco,
tea and coffee.

TWO THINGS.

The president of large manufacturing
concern said recently: There are two
things that young man must do to Sc
cure promotion in business. He must fill
his own position and do his own work
properly and he mustkbe familiar with
and able to do.the work of the man above
him, The second requisite is just as
necessary as the first.
No more valuable pointer was ever
given to the young man in business.
How many young men feel that if they
are faithful to their own daily duties-if
they get down to the office early, and
work hard all day-promotion will come
to them as a matter of course.
Experience proves their error. When
position become vacant the manager is
not content to ask concerning each as
pirant: SIS he doing his work we'll in
the lower position?' He goes on to de-
mand HAS he shown any evidence of
fitness for this new position; does he
understand its duties; has be proven any
altitude for such work ?"
Young men-you who are reading this
editorial-you who are eager to get
ahead-you who want promotion, wider
opportunities and larger success-go back
and read the paragraphs above second
time. They point out to you the only
way in which you can secure the things
you want.
Success will come to you only with a
wider knowledge of business than you
now possess.

]. V. THOMPSON
GETS A DIVORCE;
PAYS A MILLION

UNIONTOWN, Pa, Jan. 20.-It was

Thompson 100000, and each party to
the suit has the right to marry again.
The proceedings, which haye been un-
der way since last May, have been con-
Quoted with much secrecy, and the pa
pers in the case have not yet become a
matter of public record.
They are in the possession Of Thomp-
sons counsel, w. Cook-McKe an, who
declines to discuss the case or to give any
information.
Thompson, who is So years of age, and
his wife, who Is about Al, have not lived
together for two years, although Mrs
Thompson has occupied part of the
Thompson home here periodically during
that time. She has been making her
home at the Plaza hotel, New York.

yers engaged in the case, will know the
character of the testimony given by
Thompson in support of his application
for divorce.

THE DRUG HABIT.
Wheeling Register. J

The story OF the morphine and cocaine
in postal cards sent to convicis in the
Ossining IN " prison illustrates to
what extremes victims Of the drug habit
will 90 TO seure the poisons which they
crave. 1t was woman in New York
city who conceived the idea of conceaiing
the powder in embossed post cards, and
under photographs pasted on the back Of
cards The Ossining prison authorities
were at a loss to account for the SNUG
Cling of cocaine and morphine into the in
stitution. They knew it was being used,
and they thought their precautions against
its introduction were so perfect that
only thought guards and other officials
could it reach the hands of the convicts
The discovery of the postal card method
OF smuggling drugs was made accidental
ly. The cards were stacked high on a
table and something heavy dropped on
them. A broken bit OF pasteboard allow
ed white powder to escape 1t was
analysed and found to be morbhine.
The ''doping" of post cards is only one
of a thousand ingenious schemes resorted
to by drug fiends to circumvent physic-
ians, friends or officers Of the law as the
case may be. When the habit is fixed
there is nothing too risky for the victim
to try in order to get supply OF his drug
1t seems that the old adage "Where
there's will there's way" applies to the
traffic in abit-forming drugs, and it is
only by tireless vigilance on the part OF
the authorities that the law against the
sale of such drugs can be enforced.
