How Your Child
Should Study
GEOGRAPHY AGAIN.
By w. D. Pulpermdcher.

r F your boy is continually deficient
In geography and you have remem-
bered to fix the location Of cities
and rivers in his mind By pointing
out the reason therefor (as suggested
in an earlier article: another means Of
ridding him OF that deficiency Is by sup
plying him from any public library with
books of travel. Well nigh every boy Is
fond of them. az
Thereafter he will show greater in
terest in any country referred to in
ouch a book and will often gain a
permanent knowledge Of the customs
and habits Of the people Of that coun-
try that ne could gain in no other
way except by travel.
Lesson In Signs.
When you are out walking with your
child. see to It that every signboard,
every advertisement teaches a lesson
in geography. II the corner grocery
has an advertisement in the window
for Malaga grapes, tell him that you
are curious to know where Malaga Is.
II later he finds that city in Spain. he
will never forget one sof its products
nor the location of that particular city.
II sheffield STEEL is stamped upon
the knives al home, erince the same
curiosity to know where Sheffield is.
He will then never forget the location
Of Englands great steel industry. In
that way teach the child to be OBJ
servant. wide-awake and curious.
DO not squeIch him. 1t Is right that
he be "a human question mark" Give
due consideration to each one of his
questions and he will soon have a
store of geographical knowledge, TO
which he will be very eager to add
while in school.
Should Know Of War.
Take advantage of mis- natural desire
to know all about Turkeys troubles.
and while telling the story, incidentally
locate Turkey itself, Italy. Tripoli, Mon
tenegrO. Servia. Bulgaria, Greece,
Austria. Russia, and the other European
nations thai will be more or less in
timately woven into the story.
Just so with any current event. He
will remember for all time the location
Of a place. interest in which has been
aroused; whereas II there is no natural
reason for his remembering. the location
will coon pass from his memory.
Just as truly does the underlying
principle apply to adults. Those facts
with which are connected ones ways of
earning a livelihood remain fixed in
the minds of the members of one 8
family; whereas other facts pass out
Of mind, very often practically un-
noticed.

Hotel Moving Fad.

In one of the most fashionable ho-

There is nothing the matter with the

And if there the courage of the martyr secret longing to

Ah WELL mind is better thave resolved and lost than

without good resolutions They desire do better and

LIST SMOKED CIGAR DAILY
ing a Good One, Until His Day
Of Misfortune.

List was in the habit of smoking
n cigar a day. But that one cigar
was an exceedingly choice one. When
he was starting on a journey he told
his valet how many days he would be
away and his valet put into the yalise
a corresponding number of those Vir-
ginia cigars.
Once when Liszt was going to Italy
the chief customs officer at the from
tier post of Chiasso asked him if he
had anything to declare. The must
clan, with his thoughts centered on
his music rather than his cigars, made
signs to the effect that he had moth
ing. The officer opened the valise
without the traveller agitating himself
over the search. Presently a number
Of Virginia cigars were brought to
light. The whole lot wal confiscated
and he was ordered to pay a fine Of
500.
When List reached Milan he told
his agent of his unpleasant adventure.
Ritcordi laughed at the whole affair,
took a stroll to the Italian treasury
and recovered the cigars and the fine.
On returning to the artist he offered
him with a smile one of his W pre-
cious Virginias.
No. my dear friend said List,

HAVE CONFIDENCE IN FUTURE
Present Generation 10 Optimistic as
to the Dolngs Of Those Who

IL these Is any one thing which more
another distinguishes this gener-
alton from all those generations Of
which we have record 1t is that the
people OF this day are vastly more
interested in the future OF mankind
than they are In the past. And they
are excessively optimistic about 1t.
Where nee a lot Of fuss was made
about the achievements and the high
character Of the ancients the talk
now is Of the wonderful folk still I'M
born and OF the maryels 1t Is taken
for granted they will perform. There
is less tendency on the part OF mature.
persons to presume that their great
grandchildren will be without n
and q greater tendency to avoid tying
the future mp with constitutional re-
str~ictions. statutory custom and lega-
cies Of responsibility.
An admirable illustration OF this
state of mind Is Indicated by the
words Of the New York clergyman
who informed his congregation the
other day that human existence 50 far
has been the might Of life" and that
dawn was just breaking for the real
morning Of humanity's kingdom" The
gentleman MAJ be wrong or he may
be right. There is no scientific In
strument s far devised which will

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con
dition of the mucous, lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tubesis
inflamed you have a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is closed
Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by Catarrah,
which is nothing but an infiamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness tcaused by catarrh) that can
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send
