If You Own Cows

1t will not only be interesting but it
will be profitable for you to read that
little national dairy magazine, Kim
halls Dairy Farmer. 1t is published
semi-monthly at Waterloo, Iowa, the
huh of the great dairy region of the
central west. 1t is ably edited, well
printed ON good book paper and hand
somely illustrated by actual photo
graphs taken exclusively for it. Its
purpose is educational and to the man
who would make his COWS yield larger
profits, this little magazine is indis-
pensable. Regardless of how many
other papers the farmer may take, this
one is worth many times its price to
him. The subscription price is only
5O cents year, and the paper will
positively be discontinued at expira
tion. Send for sample copy.

TOOK HIS FATHERS PLACE.
The Night Edwin Eoot', First Appear
ed as Richard III.

|
Between the ages of fifteen and
eighteen Edwin Booth was almost
constantly the intimate companion
of his father, Junius Brutus Booth
the elder. That fathers ccccntrici-
ties were such as to tax even the
devotion of such Il son, but Edwin's
alfcctionate care never failed. He
used to bcguile the tragedian's time
following his arduous performances
by playing the violin or singing ne
gro ballads, accompanying himself
on the banjo. Many times he at
tended his father on long walks be-
tween midnight and morning. In
1881 on certain night, the father
was booked to appear as Richard
III. at the National theater, New
York. An hour before the time for
the curtain to rise he chose to lock
himself in closet at his hotel and
refused every persuasion his son
could offer to keep his engagement.
In despair Edwin rushed to the
theatcr to explain his fathers alb
sencc. The house was already fill
ed. The manager was distracted
and in his excited questioning of the
boy accidentally learned that the
tpageeliap had hippantly told Edwin
to go and act Richard himself.
"WGll take him at his word" said
the manager. And the frightened
boy was fastened to the stage and
helped into his fathers Gloster cos
tune, several sizes too big for him.
Members Of the company gave help
full encouragement.
The play opened without an ex-
planation to the audience. When
Edwin made his entrance for the
opening soliloquy the substitution
was Immediately recognized, but so
also was the boy, for Edwin had sev,
eral times appeared in lesser parts,
notably that Of Trcssel in the same
play, in which role he made his very
first appearance. The audience was
kindly tolerant for a time, then in
terested and finally enthusiastic, for
Edwin Booth, although only eight
cen years of age, played Richard
worthily, revealing many flashes of
that brilliant genius that afterward
made him a star of much greater
eminence than his father haa ever
achieved.
On the strength Of this success
Edwin was soon ensased By the

REL LATIONS WITH JAPAN

The shifting of the United States from a position of neutrality in the European war to one of hostility against Germany and of trieudliness toward the allies cause has induced better feeling be- tween Japan and the United States. Our great naval program, of course aroused the Japanese jingo element 10 the suspicion that We were pre- nar.Ig trouble for the Orient. Vice Admiral Sato, director of the naval staff college, has recently defended the course of the Unied States and explained to his people that Arlericap war preparation is only for aat!onI defense. No one but a feel, says Sato, would suspect any Americap purpose of hostility to Japan.
 ''The great mission of the two ns- tic ns," writes Admiral sato, "is tp act as protectors and preservers of the peace of the Pacific, in har- monious cooperation"
 AnL this is precisely the direction in which matters are now moving. Baron Shibusawa has been lending his efforts to joint international action fin the financing of Chinese projects Two Japanese goTedn- ment representatives have been sent tn ih's country to forward such a nIau.

FROM
 LONG MUSH

Mocsehide, March 22-Rev. B. Totty and Andrew Joseph arrived home Monday from a missionary trip to Indians at the head of Peel river. They were away 26 days and On the way ont had the advantage of the police patrol trail leading to Rampant House. Indians from the Whitestone river country reported the members of the patrol party all we'll and making good progress.
 No white men were seen after leaving the head of TwelVemile, nl- though one man is prospecting alS trapping about a days trip from Ca lico town, on the Blackstone. Men say they prefer living out on the creeks where they can do better than spending the winter in Daw- sen with m work to do. The coun- try affords opportunity for trapping hunting and prospecting for all who wish.
 The Indians have a good quan- tity Of furs, but are not able to come in just yet to sell them on ac- count of scarcity of game. One ma1 has a pair of live black foxes which he hopes to sell for $500.
 Nine days were spent among the Indians, who are at three different camps, but for the last few days all met in one place, and took part in church services and instruction. The native lay reader rendered good service. The sacraments of the cnurch were administered to the natives, who contributed of their means to the expenses of the journey. Robert Azzac, the aged chief cs the band, was busy trap ping, ard diligent ill attending church meetings which were held in the catchist's large tent.

 It has been the uniform rule in the past that when a great war crisis has arisen the universities have responded largely and prompt ly to the call.

The proportion of graduates of other universities who rendered service during that war was probably equal ly as great.
