TORTOISE OUTLINES THE HARE
Rabbit May Get to Be Five Years Of
Age, but the other May Reach
Four Hundred.

The ages of living things vary from
a moment to hundreds of years. The
tortoise is said to take the prize
among all land animals for length OF
years. This animal lives, under favor
able conditions, 900 or 400 years. One
died in London in 1906 which was said
to be at least $50 years old. The
crocodile. too, sometimes lives to be
800.
The tortoise has to give in to the
whale, however, for the latter often
lives to the age Of five hundred. That
is probably the oldest age reached by
any creature which exists upon the
earth today.
The common little English sparrow
lives longer than most OF US imagine.
Scientists tell US that some of them
get to be forty years old. This is a
ripe old age for so small bird. The
robin. which is much larger. lives
only ten or twelve years. The eagle
holds the record for age among the
birds. 1t may live to be 100
The elephant lives. on the average,
about as long as the eagle. The old
est age among our common domestic
animals is reached by the horse,
which often reaches 80 or more. This
is practically the same as the age OF
Hons and cameIs. The COW may live
to be rs, the dog is. the rabbit about
five. Most Of US know. however. of
cases in which common beasts or
birds have lived to much greater ages
than are allotted them ordinarily.

Interesting Exhibition mt High School.

From April 2Sth to May 1st there
will BE- On display at the High School
Building On exhibition or pictures
comprising some two hundred sub
jectS representing all the principa
schools of art, as well as reproduc-
tons of the worlds greatest pieces
Of sculpture, architecture and import
ant views from nature. The coIIec.
ton will be lent to the school during
these four days by the A- wv. ElsoI
Co., or Boston. The exhibition will
be open to the public on April 28, 2e
and-30, from 2.30 to $50 p. m, and on
May LIST from 10 "a. m, to 400 ID. m
In connection with the exhibition an
entertainment including cantata
choruses, tableaux and instrumental
music will be given By the High
School pupils on the evenings OF
April 29 and 30. Tickets will be sold
which will admit the holder both To
the exhibition and to the entertain
ment ON one of these two evenings
The money derived from the sale OF
tickets will be used for the purchase
Of pictures for the High School from
the Elson Co.
The purpose Of this exhibition is
tWo-fold: Ffrst-To give our people
an opportunity to see collection of
the worlds famous masterpieces of
painting, sculpture and architecture.
Second-To raise money to purchase
some Of these pictures for the High
School.
Why should this exhibition interest
you?
Because throughout the country,
people are awakening to the import
ance and value of good art in Great
ing refining influence and inspiring
atmosphere. Just so surely as the
people become familiar with the best
in art, just 50 quickly will the crude
be displaced through appreciation OF
something better. 1T Is, OF course,
idle TO suppose that one shall become
Va competent judge of art, simply
through studying even the best class
of reproductions of the masterpieces.
But what can and should be obtained
in larger measure Of appreciation.
q work Of art which is really great
will bear reproduction, and even
though this may not possess the
pleasuregiving power of the original
i'm a gallery perhaps three thousand
miles away, that measure of power
which it does possess is well worth
while. Suppose we. have pondered
over some masterpiece until we know
it by heart, and can see it with our
eyes shut in all its impressiveness Of
outline, and all Its harmony Of light
and shade. Should not this make Us
richer and better? This can be done.
Almost amy one who cares can do
this, and by study of the great mas
terpieces can gradually accumulate
q little picture gallery Of this sort ID
his own head quite Independent Of
circumstances OF time, place or
money.
The principal and teachers of the
High School believe that the people
of Westminster will appreciate the
opportunity offered by this exhibition,
and will support it in the hearty
manner in which they have been &C.
customed to support all the enter
prises designed for the welfare u
the school.

A Lesson From Nature.

When wash day came around, old
Mrs. Sims filled the tubs from the
water barrel that caught the rain
from the roof of her cabin down near
North Bend way on the Big Miami
River. But ia dry weather, she had a
bad time The boys had to fetch
water from the river. Miami river
water il hard as blazes and washing
in it is some job In the drought of
A., the boys had to 20 to Cincinnati
and they filled the water butt for her
before they went. tt was three days
before wash day. Next day Jimmie
and Sam Slick were fooling round
the yard. They had chased the
chickens and walloped the shoats and
gotten a licking from Mrs. Sims for
general devilishness- They were mad
and bound they would do MON" a
turn. So, when she was taking a
snooze, they up and shoveled a lot
OF dirt in the water butt to fix her
against wash day. My wasn't she mad
when she saw it. The boys dursn't
come nigh her Well, wash day came,
the mud had settled and Mrs. Sims
was highly careful how she dipped
into the barrel SO as not to stir it up.
The boys were still keeping pretty
quiet but they saw that MON" was
looking terribly pleased over the tub.
Boys" says she wasn't this here
water, river water?" '.Yas'm" SAYS
Jim. Wall, declar," says Mrs.
Sims tits plum soft like rain water.
do believe that mud you uns put in
have took up All the hardness"
Now, this is true and every old
"a w Trdf
But, there Is much more to it,. than
the softening of water for washday.
Tho 1T 10 this that tells the story,
which is, that lime-huhgry soil will
take lime from a natural water and
leave it soft For it is lime and mag
neSia in solution that makes waters
hard. Wherever you find sections
with river bottom lands that have a
great reputation for fertility you can
De sure that the river waters which
overflow them, in the spring freshets,
are very hard waters bearing a fairly
good percentage Of lime and mag
nesla- These waters standing on the
land, lose part or all OF their lime
and magnesia which are then retain
cd by the soil beneath. This is true
OF all these lands in the Mississippi
amy SLADy AACA1hIhFr nhl
the Valley of Virginia. The food
waters standing on these bottoms
lime them and it is easy to show 1t
chemically.
Nov, why ~ 1t that such lands have
no such reputation in Virginia and
North Carolina east and south or the
Shenandoah and Potomac flood plains.
"A mere glance at the analyses of the
river waters of the country, publish
cd by the government, tells the story.
The waters OF the Miami, Maumee,
Kentucky, Muskingum, Cumberland,
Missouri and Cedar rivers or the mid
die west contain six TO twelve times
the amount of lime and magnesia as
that contained i'm the Dan, the Neuse,
the Pedee, the Roanoke and the James
rivers of Virginia and North Carolina.
Tho, the James gets thru It's tribu-
taries from the Valley enough lime to
make 1t something OF an exception To
the rule. This IL the reason why even
bottom lands, as well al other lands,
i'm the South must be lined arti-
ficially--By Karl Langenbeck-

The carriages were padded every
