PORTO RICAN-CUBAN SCHOOLS.
Diametricaliy different conditions
are found to exist in Cuba and Porto
Rico in relation to the educational in
terests of the two Islands. In Porto
Rico, the government schools, all I'M
der American supervision, and most
of them taught either by Americans
or by Porto Ricans educated in Amer
lean normal schools, are so much SUI
perior to the various mission schools
that the latter are pretty much put
out of business, and those not already
abandoned are likely to be. In Cuba,
the public schools, conducted accord
ing to the crudest standards by peo-
pie in many instances antagonistic to
them and at bet ignorant of modern
American standards and innocent of
American methods, are the most in
ferior in the island; the mission
schools are Invariably the better
with the inevitable result that pub
lie education is much discouraged by
all classes, who base their prejudices
upon conditions and effects that are
entirely foreign to the American ideal

Item.
So that off to the club he Won't roams
Don't fill him with fibs,
Nor tickle his ribs
Nor with idle yarns fill his dome.
Don't offer to hug or to kiss;
Simply feed him a pickle,
His palate to tickle,
Then he'll bubble and radiate bliss.
If he's aiIing, don't hand him pill,
Nor run up a big doctors bill
Don't cuddle and purr,
Nor smooth down his fur,
But just give him a gherkin or dill.
Away with all things misanthropic,

Turn sour into sweet

Handling the City Books.
In tho neighborhood of Whit ehall,
Michigan, they have large numbers of
city visitors in the summer. The
Whitehall Forum has presented the
following suggestions for the treat
ment of these people by the natives:
Treat them gently, handle them
with care, for though they may not
be marked fragile they are as babes
in the woods
Give freely of your store of knowl-
edge, that they may return to the
abode of innocents with wisdom to
Spare, for as we give in this life so
shall we receive in the one to come.
Instruct them carefully in the fine
arts of the milking of the COW, the
feeding of the fowls and the pitching
of the hay, and smile not when they
ask you to remove the thick yellow
scum from their milk.
Assure them that when the cock
crows at break of day it is not an
alarm of fire, nor yet an earthquake,
and neither is it a signal for lights
out in the bar room.
Awake them at noon for their.
morning repaSt, and warn them of the
bull, and the snakes, and the business
end of the goat, and of all the SnareS
that beset the unwary III the field of
adventure.
Grave is your responsibility. Give
it heed"

SAVE THOSE DIMES.

Every bank "ad'' breaches the wis
dom of saving dimes now, with the
assurance that they will grow into
dollars later on. 1t is a subject given
little heed by the fellows who ought to
listen, and they spend their dimes over
the soda, fountain with an indifference
that pains their economic fathers and
mothers. 1t would be so simple, IL
the saving habit was only easy to
form as the spending habit. But there
is an additional reason just now why
every person should save. Banking
seers say that money is going to be in
great demand when the present wa
is over And the fellow who has Il
wad tucked away in the heel of his
stocking will find himself exceedingly
popular all at once, and able to levy
eight and ten per cent on it. And even
If the money shortage doesn't come,

KATALLA CLAIM PATENTED
 CONTAINS ANTHRACITE

The granting of a patent to the Fremont coal claim, in the Boring river field, owned by Clark Davis and associates, is said to contain 5,0OO,- 900 tons of anthracite coal.
 At the time when the application was made for patent to this claim, along with fifteen others which com pose the entire group located by these men, the Juneau land office held a charge of fraud against the claims, and with the exception of the Free mont claim, held that no mine had been opened. In the case of the Freemont claim, however, the Juneau office held that not only had a mine been opened but that very consider. able work had been done on that claim.
 According to the records of the Juneau office, there is still pending in the office of the secretary of the interior an appeal in connection with the remaining cases.
 These locations were made in 1903 and the property known as the Free mont was worked up until 1910.
