The Arctic Test.

Although the physical endurance OF
polar explorer, no matter how great II is,
will not compensate for lack in him OF
the first two qualities Of optimism and
patience, which are ever moral or tem-
peramental, il is essential that every man
on an exploring expedition should be
physically "iit." When Sledging par
ty in the antarctic leaves its base, and
works IFS way over the tracklesS snow,
il must drag its provisions and equip
ment if any member OF that party breaks
down, not only is his death certain, but
the lives of his companions are put into
grave peril The death OF Captain Scott
and three OF his companions was mainly
owing 10 the unlooked-for breakdown OF
Petty Officer Evans.
A mans physical endurance largely de-
pends on his state OF health and his per-
sonaI habits. On no consideration would
ever take on an expedition 10 the polar
regions man who was slave 10 any
habit that did not make for good. In
the polar regions intoxicating drinks are
fatal, and a man addicted to strong drink
is worse than useless. Likewise, a
greedy man would be trial 10 himself
and TO his companions. The explorer

A Wartime Incident.

Col. John NJ. Schoonmaker of the I'm
ion army, who commanded brigade OF
cavalry under General Butler in the Civil
War, delivered the commencement ad-
press at the Virginia Military Institute at
Lexington, Va, and in the course of his
address told OF tribute he and his COM
mand paid TO the memory OF Stonewall
Jackson.

Butler TO advance with my brigade OF
cavalry and occupy Lexington. was
overlooking the town from the north,
and there was checked by some resist
ance. Gen. McCauSland, in command
of the ConfederateS, was in front OF me.
A battery came up, sent by Gen. Hunter,
to support me. The officer said he had
orders TO shell the town. protested
against his shelling an empty town.
"He tired a few rounds and stopped.
The Confederates had burned the bridge
over the river at Lexington. After the
firing ceased divided my command and
with part crossed the river just below the
bridge the others sent several miles
up TO cross the river and approach the
town from the other side. Then posted
sentinels on the roads coming into the
town. An officer came 10 me with the
information that a Confederate flag was
flying in the cemetery. made inquiry
and learned that it was flying over the
grave OF Stonewall Jackson. ordered a
guard placed there. had placed guards
at tn institute and al the college.
"The day | reached Lexington three
old men called at my headquarters and
asked 10 see the commander. They eX-
pressed surprise at my youthful appear
ance. They asked permission 10 remove
the flag at Geperal Jackson's grave.
They explained that il had been left there
by an oversight and no disrespect was
intended. lasked them 10 LEI il fly until
sunset and would take il down. said
to them we regard Jackson as the high
est type OF Christian soldier. AT the ap-
pointed time rode TO the cemetery there
with my staff and accompanied by file
OF twelve soldiers and bugler. Alighting,
we walked 10 the grave. II was a SIM
pie mound. We carried two flags. one oi
the 18th Pennsylvania we planted in The
ground on one side of the mound, and
that OF the 9th Massachusetts was plant
ed on the other side. The chief bugler
stood on my right, and slowly ! lowered
the flag 10 the ground, where il rested
between the two regimental flags. The
file OF soldiers fired three volleyS over the
grave, the bugler sounded taps, lifted
the flag and handed il TO the three vener-
able citizens, who received il with emo
tion; The emotion was not confined TO
them"

Following The Crowd.

Uncle Billy walked into the village
store about the middle OF the afternoon,
and the storekeeper, waking from his
nap, said: Thought you'd gone to the
State fair"
al did" was the brief reply, as Uncle
Billy helped himself TO a chair.
Didn't you like II ?"
Uncle Billy looked round cautiously.
The other village loafers were having a
game OF horseshoe" in front OF the black
smith shop; so lowering his voice, he
said, coniidentially, "l'll tell you how it
happened. hadn't been to the State
fair for twenty year, so wasn't on 10 it
very well. | decided I'd keep an eye on
the crowds, and foller where they seemed
the thickest. Well, it worked pretty
well. went around to good many
fine displays and shows and things.
About noon, saw lot of fine-dressed
folks goin' all in one direction, so took
after 'em. They all pushed and iammed
TO get through an archway, and pushed,
too. Well, what do you guess it was ?"
"Give it up" the storekeeper said,
eager for the climax.
"Well, they were all city folks, goin'
home to dinner, and there stood on the
outside. ! wasn't goin' 10 pay no fifty

Nine Hundred Million )! Bushels OF
Wheat

Such harvest, as il happens, would be
larger BY nearly eighteen per cent than
the largest previous wheat yield in this
country's history. II would exceed by
not quite forty-five per cent the wheat
crop OF as recenta year as 1911. ltwould
be thirty-four per cent greater than the
country's average annual wheat produc-
ton in the past ten years. What is per-
haps the most singular OF all reeollections
suggested by the estimate for 1914 is that
exactly ten years ago. when our wheat
crop was only $4,000. 900 bushels, the
prediction was general, among the best
experts in home and foreign centres OF
the grain trade, that our capacity as a
wheat-exporting nation was like to de-
crease rapidly thereafter - through in
crease in the number OF bread consumers
at home. and through our inability to in
crease our havests. The conclusion
drawn from that assumed probability was
that, within a few years, the United
States would be compelled TO import
wheat in great quantity from other coun-
tries in order TO have enough 10 feed its
own people.
Part of the prophecy was fulfilled; our
people, during the last ten years, appear
by the grain trades figures TO have con-
sumed fully 100, 100000 bushels more OF
wheat per annum THAI they used on the
average in the preceding decade. In the
meantime, however, not only has the
amount of land under wheat cultivation
increased in this country, but more care
ful and scientific farming processes have
so FAR enlarged the average yield 10 the
acre that the average harvest since 1904
has also increased 1000 600 bushels
over what il had been in the ten years
before. The unprecedented size OF the
wheat crop foreshadowed for 1914 is
partly a result OF unusually favorable
weather; but il is also largely a conse-
quence OF the better farming methods
which our Department OF agriculture al
Washington, our State agricultural bu-
reaus. and The agricultural instruction
staff OF our Western State universities
have insistenily been teaching 70 the
American farmer.
When this country's wheat cropin 1918
was the largest ever harvested, and when,
on top OF that, the present indication is
for crop IA, ,00O, 900 bushels larger still.
il is evident that the possibilities Of the
agricultural United States are considera-
bly, greater than what the experts OF 1904
allowed 10 il. That is only one OF the
numerous reminders OF how Nature man
ages TO get the better OF people who pre-
dict what she cannot do.-The Youths

Wrong Foot.

Sam, who was a great gunner, made
arrangements TO 60 on a hunting trip at
an early hour in the morning, but having
no faith in alarm clocks, he sought the
services of the night cop on the corner.
"Jim," said he, instructing the cop,
"when 60 to bed tonight, am going
to tie one end OF cord around my big
toe and throw the other end out OF the
window. AT O'Clock in the morning |
want you TO pull on the rope and keep
on pulling until tell you 10 STOP"
"All right, Sam," smiled the police
man, "you will find me on the job"
Late last night Sam crawled in, and
after adjusting the rope according to
schedule, he was soon in the land OF
dreams. Hardly had he slept a minute,
he thought, when he was awakened by
a frightened cry, and then more cries,
and to his horror he saw Mrs. Sam slowly
sliding out Of bed and going feet first to-
ward the window.
Gee l' he exclaimed as the truth sud-
denly dawned upon him. "I must have
tied that rope TO the wrong toe"

Made Honest Through Operation.

A splinter Of bone lifted from his brain,
and Jeff Lee, prisoner in the Colorado
State penitentiary, has been transformed
from criminal maniac into an honest
man.
Still in his early twenties, the surgeons
knife has wrought miracle that will send
the young man into the world free man
in every sense of the word-free from
the penalty OF the law and free, also,
from the blight that made him thief and
all-round petty criminal.
5; A fall from house when he was only
10 years old made him criminal, a va
grant, and finally maniac. The deft
removal OF the splinter OF bone mas re-
lieved the pressure on the brain that
short -circuited the nerve currents and
perverted all OF the lads impulses and
acts.
Jeff Lee was the son OF a wealthy Tex
as planter. He was healthy, normal
youth, with a good record in his studies,
and with many friends. When he was
Is some OF his boy friends dared him TO
ride an unruly horse. He accepted the
challenge and apparently conquered the
beast after sharp struggle.
Then he invited one OF his girl friends
TO accompany him for ride. They rode
off together and, while they chatted and
laughed, the horse, seeing an opportuni-
ty, reared and threw the youth.
He was dashed to the ground, receiv-
ing a fractured skull. He was taken
home and recovered, so far as his phys
ical health was concerned.
But from that time he grew moroSe and
sullen, in striking contrast to his former
unvarying good nature. Then he began
TO seek the company OF the roughs OF the
neighborhood, and 10 practice evil ways.
Finally he was arrested and convicted on
charge OF horse stealing. He went TO
the penitentiary, and there, with harden
ed criminals as his willing tutors, he soon
became versed in crimes.
When he was released from the Texas
prison he went TO Colorado and soon be-
came intimate with criminal element.
In few months he was arrested on
charge of burglary. Lee was sentenced
to from tWo TO five years in the State
prison. His second commitment seemed
10 prey on his mind.
He showed signs of incipient insanity
almost from the day OF his entry, and
within few months was sent to the in
sane ward, having become maniac, with
spells of violence.
The surgeon Of the penitentiary became
interested the case, and, believing an OPP
Grafton would restore his reason, and
possibly eliminate the criminal tenden-
cies, an effort was made TO locate his pa
rents, so that their permission might be
obtained. The prisoner, however, had
concealed his true name and for time
efforts were fruitlesS.
Then one day lucid interval came.
Lee, recognizing his wretched plight,
gave the name Of his parents, and begged
that the operation be performed.
al would rather die this minute than to
go on living as crook" he said.
The parents gave their consent and
four months ago the operation was per-
formed. When Lee recovered from the
numbing effects OF the anaesthetic he was
sane.
Daily he recovered strength and a
clearer intellect. Today he stands up
right, with the straightforward gaze oithe
honest man. In few months, when his
minimum sentence expires, he will be re-
leased.
