carried out in the high school.
The Muskogee high school boys are
given regular shop work with lathes,
machinery and foundry installed in
the building. The girls are taught
the rudiments of care of the sick
and are given regular training in
nursing. Millinery is also taught,
and advanced sewing, so that gradu-
ates Of the course are expert seam
stresses and milliners. Commercial
courses are offered from which eX-
pert bookkeepers stenographers and
typeWriters are graduated. Further
than acquiring the theory Of these
different occupations, actual work Is
done. From the commercial depart
ments during the last few weeks Of
the course, the students are placed for
one week each in law offices, insur-
ance offices. commercial houses,
shipping departments, etc, so that an
insight into the practical side of the
occupation Is learned in the II weeks

boys in the trades, the Superintendent

duty Of those in office and in author

children are SO trained that they may

trained in the trades or occupations
they expect to follow at the same

arithmetic necessary in the life Of all
people, and also something about the
history and geography of our country

Watch Carefully
the Child's Diet.
Start Them Off Right with a Good LaXa-
tive and Then Watch
Their f00d.

Mothers are often unconsciously
very careless about the diet Ct their
children, forcing all to eat the same
foods. The fact is that all foods do
not agree alike with different per-
sons. Hence, avoid what seems to
constipate the child or to give it in.
digestion, and urge it to take more
of what is quickly digested.
If the child shows a tendency to
constipation it should Immediately
be given a mild laxative to help the
bowels. By this is not meant a ply
sic or purgative, for these should
never be given to children, nor any
thing like salts, pills, etc. What the
child requires is simply small dose
of the gentlest of medicines. Such as
DR. Caldwell's Syrup PepsiD, which,
in the opinion of thousands ofwatch-
full mothers, is the ideal remedy for
any child showing a tendency to con-
stipation. So many things can hap
pen to a constipated child that care
is necessary. Colds. piles, headache,
sleeplessness and many other annoy
ances that children should not have
can usually be traced to constipa-
ton.

A MARVEL OF STEALTH.
This Herd Of Elephants Were Appar.
emily Shod With Silence.

lnnocently meandering through
an African forest. Mr.. Z. II. Bron-
son and his hunting companion,
neither of whom had seen wild
elephants, much less hunted them.
found themselves in the middle OF
a feeding herd, but hidden from the
unwieldly animals by the under
brush. "In Closed Territory the
author describes the experience:
1t proved to be our day to learn
a lot about the elephants whiJns
and what he can do when he
likes. Of course the creek lay be-
tween US, which might seem a pro-
lection, but it was not. They all
whirled and thundered away from
US. But scarcely had we gone a
hundred feet before the whole herd
came plunging back upon their
tracks at the same mad pace.
They stopped stock still ten
yards from US, as we afterward
proved, but they were hidden from
us as before. This time they were
punched in a half circle about us.
For probably ten minutes there
was utter silence; then they started
feeding and amusing themselves as
before. This continued for per-
haps fifteen minutes, when all
sound ceased again, and the wood
was as still as if they had all drop
ped dead.
And there we sat for the larger
part Of an hour, wondering how
long an afternoon siesta well regu-
lated elephant families usually take.
We were in constant expectation
Of renewed movement by some Of
the herd. We could have sworn
that they were still within the toss
of q biscuit.
But when presently q slight stir
among the leaves directly before
Outram made US throw up our rifles
out stepped Akuna, who had raced
out of our sight at the first stam-
pede. He brought the incredible
intelligence that the elephants were
gone out of the bush and were dis
appearing of toward the north.
Magic! No prestidigitator could
touch this vanishing act Of tons and
tons of ambulant weight done under
our very noses in country where
we pygmies could hardly stir with
out causing a racket. And yet it
proved to be true. They were all
gone, by what miracle Of stealth /
doubt if the oldest elephant hunter
could tell.

Steel Best For Mine Timbsrins.

By the use Of steel in place OF
wood for mine timbering, waste due
to decay, framing and fitting, fire
and insects is entirely overcome,
says Coal Age. Steel mine timbers
also call for less excavation, cost
less to erect, have greater endur-
snce and tend toward better venh-
lation. While the first cost Of steel
is nearly twice that Of the wood
used for timbering, the ultimate
cost is lower, as steel lasts much
longer. It can be used again and
again, and if crushed it has a sal
wage value.
