Smith, conveying her high opinions
of Park College which she is attend

Billions of SAVINGS.

D1scouraging statistics and a good
deal Of talk are offered about the i'm
mense number Of people who reach
old age without provision for meeting
its needs. Evidences are not lacking
that the statement in this direction is
overdrawn, since a lack of material
possessions does not always prove a
state of dependence upon public char
ity. Many old persons have invested
their means in earlier years in sons
and daughters that prove an invest
ment capable Of paying and that do
pay large dividends in love and care.
Old age without houses and land and
stocks and bonds is not always i'm
provident old age. Signs there are of
degree of improvidence in the young
er generation that would seem to bode
destitute old age; and yet who could
be downcast about the situation in the
face of the fact that the savings banks
of this country have on deposit more
than four billions of dollars-proof of
thrift-which means hard work and
careful savings through self-denial-
that discounts to a degree the evil
dence that this is an extravagant and
a thoughtless age.-New Bedford
Standard.

so A GUNBoAT WENT MAD
How the spaniards Took Vengeance
on Moros Who Slew Swimming
Soldiers.

Capt. John e. Morris, who spent
long, long time in the Philippinoo
chasing the Moro, tells story about
a Spanish military governor in JoIo
who, in the peace Of fanciey security
allowed a whole flock OF his soldiers
to go swimming one day.
Now, the Moro has habit of going
juramatado when the camp meeting
variety of religion hits him. When a
Moro goes juramatado, he takes the
most disagreeable weapon he can find
and carves up the first Christian he
meets
When the Moros saw the soldiers in
the water several of them thought il
was the very best time to go juara-
matado, with the result that those
soldiers never went swimming anv
more.
The sultan who had charge of that
particular bunch of Moros promptly
was sent for The Spaniard wanted to
know why his men were slaughtered
in such manner.
"How could 1 help it?' the sultan
asked. "They went juramatado."
Nobody wants to interfere with any
body's religion, Of course, but there
was Spanish gunboat lying around
loose in that immediate vicinity. The
governor sent for the commander of
the gunboat.
"You haven't had much target prac-
tic lately he remarked to the naval
officer, ''and you might try a little.
Now, a few Moros make fair targets.
When 1 want target practice to stop
I'll run up flag. But until the flag is
run up keep at it,
1t was one glorious bombardment.
A lot of Moros accidentally got hit.
And somehow the post flag was mis-
laid, so it couldn't be hoisted.
1t was most excited sultan who
showed up before the Spanish govern
or. If that gunboat didn't stop it's
nonsense he wouldn't be sultan any
longer, because he wouldn't have any
subjects to sultan over. And he told
the governor so.
How can help it?" demanded the
governor with some heat. "The fool
boat has gone juranhtado and can't
interfere with the religion of the
blame navy. San Francisco Chroni-

Nearer the Perfect Man.

Man is handsomer, better housed,
fed and clothed, more charitable and
is more rarely assailed with govt
than in ''ye olden times" according
to DR.. John w. Wainwright. In fact,
man has had an, average of six years
added to his life in the last century.
mo doubt the stress and strain of
life today are conducive to nervous
complaints" says DR.. Wainwright, "as
well as to arterial, cardiac and CASTRO
intestinal disturbances. And yet with
all of this hurry one is amazed at the
outward calm, the poise, of the man
of affairs today.

out at sixty, but statistics prove that
the average length of life is between
six and seven years longer than a CEN
fury ago."-The American Practi-

Co-operative Home Maxine.

the ones in which each child has some
definite duty in the daily household
routine; not drudging obligation, but
a contribution to the general comfort
Of the family. 1t is not so much the
actual task that is of value, it is the
spirit which it fosters. You may fill

merely a horrid chore to be got

nifty system had just begun" Mr..
Anderson, whose home is in Rhine
lander, has the Wisconsin idea of go
ing to the people" for final judgment
on a question which he considers an
Issue Of Importance. Assuming that
the legislature will be true to it's
pledge and will act favorabIy upon
the initiative and referendum PROPOSE
zion, he intends to use the referen-
dun by putting to vote of the
people of the state the question Of
whether they want the present frater-

Speaker HuIPs Charges.
Much interest was shown in the
clash between Speaker Hull and
President Van Hise over the Rosa
and Sharp bills designed to vest the
administration of the whole educa-
thiortal system of the state in state
commission. Speaker Hull charged
that the university was endeavorfng
TO dominate the educational system of
the state. He declared that through
this attempt to dominate the system
has become top-heavy; that the uni
wersity is receiving more than its
share of attention, and that the rural
schools are being neglected. He be-
yfeves that a central commission would
do much to improve conditions. The
proposed board, he said, would be in
a position to proportion state inter
est in the educational system of Wis
.consin.
President Van Hise contended that
She subject was too big for arbitrary
action by the legislature. If such a
proposition were seriously considered,
he said that a careful Investigation OF
@he subject should be made before
che legislature established the pro-
rDosed central commission. He said
that discomfort and dissatisfaction
prevail in states which have tried
such a plan.
ST cannot believe" said President
Van Hise, chat the committee will
decide upon the untried method pro
rposed by this bill. In education, as
lin other matters, natural growth, as
result of many years experience, Is
the best guide to form of government
why Is it that as natural develop
ment of 300 years, large universities
both public and private have not paid

faculties each with we'll defined pow
ers? Because experience has shown
