Benefits Of Co-Operatjon

Cooperation has for its object the
making Of money on what you have
to sell, and saving money on what
you have to buy. but there are great
er principles and far greater posi-
bilities involved. The nearer and
more perfectly the principles OF CO.
operation are lived up to. the greater
will be the benefits to the co-opera-
tors

No Wonder Il Hurt Him.

A group of grieving depositors stood
on the sidewalk before the closed
doors of a recently defunct bank. 1t
wasn't a merry scene. One man who
had lost his all was trying to brace
up a colored grandpa whose white
wool bobbed up and down into the
folds of a bandana.
Don't cry, uncle" he said. Banks
burst every day, you know"

Managing a Farm.

While 1t Is well to encourage the
Back to the Soil" movement, espe-
cially among young people. 1t is fool
ish to think that anyone can manage a
farm successfully from the first. 1t
requires careful study and patience
year in and year out. but the person
who has industry and common sense
will succeed in the end.

What has been done with the law
passed by the last legislature in re-
gard to making the Peru Turnpike a

State Highway Commissioner, by and
with the consent of the Governoc, to
do one OF three things. Purchase the
property of the Peru Turnpike Co,
and make free road Condemn the
Peru Turnpike company's turnpike
and appoint commissioners to set
valuation on same and make n free
road; Build a road parallel or as
nearly as possible. and have il free

years and nothing seems to have
been done on any OF the three prop.
ositions. The question is, are Hap.
good and the owners OF the turn
pike going to be able to stop the Gov
ernOr and the highway commissioner
from carrying out this law and giving
the people a free road? If so why?
The people want TO know the reason
and are entitled to know why this
law is not carried into effect.

HANGING PICTURES.
The Old Rule and Origin of the Term
"On the Line"

The Old Rule and Origin Of the Term
"On the Line.p
People still speak OF pictures being
hung ION the line" at the Royal Acade-
my. but very few indeed, even among
the present members themselves, know
the origin OF the term. The common
belief that II implies a place on the
walls on the level with a spectators
eye is more or less correct. But when
the exhibitions were held in Somerset
House and Trafalgar square the term
meant something far more definite III
those days people not only spoke of
pictures being hung ION the line" but
above the line and below the line"
"The line" was then a regular and per
manent fixture. IL was a horizontal
line exactly eight feet from the floor,
marked by a projecting ledge that LETT
the surface of,the wall below it two
inches in advance OF that which wss
above ii.
A picture was said to be hung ION
the line when the top of It's frame
was level with this ledge Hung
thus" says G.. ID. Leslie. Il. A., in The
Inner Lift of the Royal Academy"
the picture, unless a very small one
indeed. was exactly at the height TO
be viewed comfortably by a specta-
tor"
The rule in old times was that all
very large pictures. as wei rs whole
length and half length por,rilis. haG

toms OF their frames resting on the
ledge which marked the line, but no
lower. The line was thus preserved

THE SUPPLY OF BABIES.
What q Procession of Those Born IN
Ore Year Would Mean.


One Year Would Mean.
II has been computed that about
3G,000,o00 babies are born into the
world each year The rate of produc-
ton is. therefore. about seventy per
minute. or more than one for every
beat of the clock.
With the one-a-second calculation
Every reader is familiar, but it is not
every one who stops to calculate what
this means when it comes to years
supply. 1t will. therefore, probably
startic good many persons TO find. on
the authority of well known stats
tician. that. could the infants of year
he ranged in line in cradles, the
cradles would extend around the globe.
The same writer looks at the matter
in more picturesque light He inn
asincs the babies being carried past
given point in their mothers arms,
one by one, and the procession being
kept up night and day until the last
hour ia the twelfth month had passed
by. \ sufficiently liberal rate is al
lowed. but even in going past at the
rate Of twenty minute. 200 an hour,
during the entire year. the reviewer at
his post would have seen only the
sixth part of the infantie host.
In other words. the babe that had to
be carried when the tramp began
would be able to walk when but
mere fraction of its comrades had
reached the reviewers post, aud when
the years supply of babies was draw
ing to n close there would be rear
guard. not Of infants, but OF romping
six-year-old boys and girls.-Londoa
