Most Beautiful Thinq.

A newspaper recently invited its
readers to state in few words what
they considered the most beautiful
thing in the world.
The first prize was awarded to the
sender of the answer: "The eyes Of
my mother"
"The dream Of that which we know
to be impossible" suggested an imag-
NATIVE person, and this brought him
second prize.
But the most amusing thing was
that which read: 1.-The most beauti-
full thing in the world is to see a

Quality, Keynote of British Crops.

Quality must always be the keynote
Of British agriculture, as the area is
far too small to enable farmers to
grow the quantities of produce that
the newer countries of the world can
yield; and In no connection is quality
of greater importance than that of the
cereal crops. Wheat, oats and barley
will occupy considerable portion of
the land, and the condition in which
they are put on the market substantial.

Government of japan.

The government Of Japan is not an
absolute monarchy, the mikado being
largely responsible to the parliament
and, to degree, to the people back Of
the parliament. Under the mikado is
the house of peers, composed Of the
princes of the blood and the nobility
and the representative of the vested
interests, and the house of representa-
tives, which is made up Of some $50
members, representing the masses Of
the people.-New York Journal.

WHAT TO DO WITH THIS BOY
Case Of Juvenile crimlnaIlty In France
That May Well Puzzle the
Social Reformer.

Here is a little life story that moro
wildly Eliminates the task Of the 90
cial reformer than any number Of trea-
tises. A couple Of nights ago boy Of
less than fifteen was discovered along
side the Seine by a couple Of police
men. At first he refused to utter q
word, but eventually he narrated his
Odyssey. Eighteen months ago, when
he was barely thirteen, he surreptitt
ously left his parents house In Paris,
taking with him a sum of 500 francs.
With this money in his possession he
went to Brussels, where he was short
ly after arrested. The police conduct
ed him home, but he escaped again
Taken back a second time, he was ap-
prenticed to farmer, but promptly de-
parted on fresh adventures. Since then
he has existed by means Of begging
and thieving. Two months ago he
stole a couple of bicycles, and, mount.
ing one and propelling the other, made
of for Rouen, where he sold one of the
mahchines, riding to Paris on the 9th
or. This he sold in Paris, and lived on
the proceeds for time, until, shelter
less and without resources, he was
found by the police. What can the
sociologist, the penologist, or the phi
lanthropist do with so youthful and
precocious criminal? The problem Is
a serious one in France, where juve
nile crime is alarmingly on the In
crease.-Paris Correspondence London

A LIGHT IN AN AUTOMOBILE.
Use One of tho Spark Plugs When You
Have No Matches.

Have No Matches.
Did you ever while making an auto
mobile tour find yourself on lonely
country road, perhaps miles from the
nearest house, and suddenly discover
that you had no matches? If you
were anxious to light the lamps or ca
ger for a smoke such a discovery
would not prove at all conducive to
the smoothness Of your temper.
There is a simple way in which any
one may secure light without the aid
Of matches. You may be anxious for
a smoke or it may be getting dark and
you want to light your lamp, but in
any event you can secure the neces-
sary light if you will follow these di-
rections:
Unscrew one of the spark plugs and
let it lie on the cylinder head. Wrap a
any small stick of wood or if there is
none handy wrap it around the end of
a screwdriver or any other tool. Dip
the waste in the gasoline until it is
thoroughly soaked. Of course you
should have only very small piece of
waste; otherwise the blaze will be too
big for you to handle. After dipping
this in the gasoline lay it close to the
spark plug and turn the engine over I'M
til this plug sparks. This will ignite
the waste and you will have a little
torch sufficient for lighting your lamp.
Even If there Is heavy rain or snow,
you can secure light in this manner
sufficient for your needs.-Detroit Free
