.ALBANIANs ARE ODD PEOPLE.
Some Of Them Arc Highly Civilized,
But as a Body They VIII iiave
NV Nothing OF Progress.

AS matter Of fact, Albania is a
network Of mountain tribes under
hereditary chieftains, each of whom is
independent of the rest and of all the
world, and they do not want any
other form of institutions. Any gener-
al government they regard as limita-
tion OF their immemorlal freedom.
Ihey are natural fighters, and esteem
no privilege higher than the privilege
OF warfare among themselves, tribe
against tribe. They are of several
faiths and churches-Moslem, Catho.
TIC, Orthodox Greek, Moslems with
christian customs and Christians with
Mosl ..n customs, and in some tribes,
In the same family, the boys are
brought up as Moslems apd the girls
as Christians. With these e~people re-
lgion Is mere incident. The main
thing Is to be let alone. Only IN this
disposition and in their language are
they united.
Yet these picturesque and free-splr-
tied .barbarlans are the Oldest, purest
and probably the handsomest repre-
sentatives Of our race. In lineage they
are the Aryan aristocracy Of Europe.
Ardent trlbesmen, most dignified shep-
herds, devoted mountaineers, they nev-
erthless wander over the earth; and
many Of them are engaged today In
blacking boots in Boston, New York
and Chicago. Individually capable Of
civilization and education, we'll en-
dowed with brains, their native prefer
ence for the wild nationless life OF
their mountain home suggests a doubt
whether they have not after all the
right idea Of life-whether the rest of
us, in modifying the purity Of the
blood which these rude Skipetars have
maintained so nobly, have not degen-
Grated instead Of risen, says the Bos-
ton Transcript. Why else, n curious
mind might ask, should the Albanians
placed In the most beautiful nook OF
Europe, facing the Adriatic sea, poised
between Rome and Constantinople
and Athens, have remained illiterate
barbarians through all the centuries,
never Hellenized, never Latinized,
while at the same time they preserved
some Of the noblest characteristics
and virtues Of the racer Isolated they
have been, and very much civilized
some Of their members have become.
But Of progress they will have nothing.

Consolation.

When one Is filled with Ills and
groans, when one has cares and aching
bones, when every. scene presents to
view but woes and bills far overdue, in
short when all the worlds a place Of
frctfulness and sorry case, then what n
solace one can find If he will only call
to mind the words that someone used
to say, "Thls too will only pass away !"
They seem to have the proper ring. q
heap of comfort they can bring and
when the day is drab and drear they
somehow seem to please the ear; when
In a wretched circumstance they may
not make you sing and dance, they
may not fill you full Of gee and make
you joyful as can be, they may not
seldom full to please. So when YOU
have no shirts to wear or when you're
losing all your hair or when you're
filled with aches and means or when
you can't collect from Jones, when you
are weak with toothache's Ills and
when you cannot meet your bills, when
all the weary worlds askew and you,
In short, are really blue, here Is the
little piece to say: "rhis too will soon
pass away."-Illinois State Register.

appreciate an education, and so are
not willing to make the necessary
sacrifices that the children may get it.
Is this your case? BE honest.
Put the children at school the very
first day. Don't think it makes nc
difference if they start little later.
Even one day counts. Indeed, tho
first few days are the most important.
1t is the time when, to a great cr-
lent, the work Of the whole session is
outlined, and plans explained. 1t is
the time OF good resolutions on the
part Of both pupils and teachers. All
are then fresh and enthusiastic and
some OF the best work of the entire
session is done during those first few
days. On the other hand, If the child
II Kept at home to start later, he
loses interest. He realizes, with dis
couragement, that he has fallen be-
hind his schOolmates, and the feeling
is right. The first few pages Of the
text book, the first explanations are
absolutely necessary if the pupil is
to understand that subject. Iis after
work cannot possibly be what it
should If he misses them.
But sometimes the children are sent
to school on the first day and vet it
is many days before they get all the
books on their order lists They gc,
some and parents seem to think they
can wait indefinitely for the others
Now, your child cannot get on at
school without books any moro than
you could write an elegant letter
without pen or pcncil--thcrcf0rc SEQ
to it that the child gets every book
on his list, and al once. He needs
them all, or they Would not have
them set down fer him. This, always
important, is especially so the present
year. as now the children must cx-
change old books and get now Cncs
So arrange to have this matter at

Hardness and absence (both very
common faults) are perhaps the two
things most injurious to pupils ad
vancement. They mean that he does
not get what Is coming to him." If
to-day, a pupil misses at least some
OF the daily exercises. It teaches him
to- be careless, slack, not business
like. Absence Is Of course worse. 1t
is habit that grows on both parents
and tho children. until at last some

have to persuade their boys and girls
to go Oh to school, it is more rcspon~

Flower Names.

1t Is interesting to know how GER
tain flowers got their names. Many
were named after individuals. For
instance, fuchsias were so called after
Leonard Fuchs. Dahlias were named
from Andre Dahl, who brought them
{! from Peru.
The camellla was so called from a
named Kamel, who brought
,'some magnificent specimens Of the
flower to France from Japan. He
called 1t the Rose Of Japan, but his
friends changed 1t to camellla.
Magnolias were named in honor Of
Prof. Magnol de Montpelier, who first
brought the beautiful trees to France
from America and Asia.
The Latin word for "to wash" Is
'lavare," and lavender received it's
name because the Romans put the
flowers into the water they used for
washing to perfume their hands,

COMMUNICATED

The Davis Station school will be-
gin its new session en- Monday, Oct.
lst. at Q a. m. The opening of the
school has been postponed on account
OF the harvesting Of the crops and we
trust that, at this late date, every
child will be ready to begin school.
Indeed, we expect it. There are a
fnw matters, seemingly small, but in
reality of greatest Importance to the
success OF the school (and that
means, always remember tn. success
CT the children) which 1t is the pur-
pose OF this article to bring to the at.
tention OF the patrons and to stress.
Apd first, we wish TO invite all in

to meet with us at the school house
on the morning Of the opening. We
are glad to see you AT any timc--but,
FOR many reasons, this is ocn OF the
most appropriate occasions for a Wis

you are not likely to come at all BY
coming out to the opening exercises,
you will have an opportunity to meet
the teachers and to form those friend
ly relations with them SO all-impOrt-
ant in the delicate and difficult task OF
educating a child successfully. On the
present occasion, we are expecting to
have visitors and short addresses. It
y0u take the proper interest in the
school Of your community, you will
be there. A visit at this time, toe, af-
fords chance to learn something
about the plans, or at least, aims OF
the school, and to see that the chill

of the year. Therefore we say

We wish to urge all parents in the
district who have children of school
age to put them in school Give them
the inestimabln advantage of a good
education. even if 1t docs mean less

you want your child to be somebody?
