Troublesome Gender.

The trouble that Latin gender gives
to American boys and girls who are
struggling with the rudiments of that
tongue should inspire in them a SYM
pathetic feeling for small descend
ant of the race of Attlia who found the
gender of our English nouns and pro-
nouns stumbling block.
"A solid little figure trudged up to
the librarian in the children's room.
That little boy" he declared, indi-
eating the rest of the room vaguely
with his thumb, che hit me-
The liberty teacher" followed him
back across the room until the &C
cusing thumb halted near a table
where sat guilty-looking child about
half the size of the plaintiff.
The accuser explained THAT little
boy, she hit me. That little boy is
a little girl; but he has short hair,
and when point at him, she hits me-"

How Customs Chance.

If some of the notables of ancient
times were living now how differently
they would act!
Noah would charter an ocean liner
Nero would step into the parlor and
turn on the photograph while Rome
burned and the heather ragged. Ben
Hur would pilot 60 horsepower rae
ing car and spin around saucer tracks
Jason would hire the great detective
to find the Golden Fleece instead Of
going after it himself. Icarus would
mount to the sun in a Bleriot mono
plane without fear of it's wings melting
sff. Napoleon would invade Russia in
a Pullman palace car Demosthenes
would go on the Chautauqua circuit.
Cain would plead circumstantial evil
dence, self-defense and emotional in.
sanity.

Directory of Minerals.

Every city has a directory of it's in.
habltants. If you do not know a per.
sons name but do know that he
Is paperhanger, the classified BUSH
ness directory will locate him for you.
A directory of the useful minerals
IN the United States, on much the
same plan, has just been published by
the United States Geological Survey.
II you want to know where any one
of the 400 useful minerals occurs, this
directory gives the list Of localities in
each state where your mineral will be
found. This publication should be use
full to many classes of people in many
ways. If someone wants to sell you
stock in a Texas oil company the re-
port will tell you in what counties in
Texas oil is produced and in what
other counties it may eventually be
found. If your wife wears a blood.
stone lavalliere, the report gives you
the only locality in the United States
where that stone is known to occur.
II you want to manufacture plaster of
paris or need lime for your back pas
ture, this report will tell you where to
