which IL will never be able to value un'
til it has reached years Of discretion.
There are so many little helps that can
be offered to make work attractive W
children. For instance, a successiui
way to teach a child to put Its soileo
clothes out Of sight is to make for ib
own use little laundry bag OF some
cheerful color and on it embroider the
word Laundry" Hang IL on q peg
low enough for the child to reach am

more than two or three times OF ie
duty. ........ .r.... .....-
IL you cannot afford to have nursery
furniture for the child's room you
should at least let the child share
bureau or dressing table with some one
so that it can be taught quite young
to put hair ribbons. handkerchiefs, etc.
In a certain place. Let IL UNDERSTAND
that the space reserved is all its very
own.

Warning Bsfor. Command.

In bringing up my children / found
that at night when they were tired
they were spared many tears by being
warned before / gave them a strict
command. Instead Of saying snow It

nearly time to go to bed. Finish your
house first and then put away your
blocks" In this way the children were
fully prepared to go, and there was
consequently no begging and no temp
tation for me to show my lack Of firm
ness by being persuaded to allow them
to build "just one more house"

A Mummy's Doll.

Among the ancient objects exhibited
In the British museum is doll more
than 5000 years old. When some ar
chaeologists were exploring an ancient
Egyptian royal tomb they came upon
a sarcophagus containing the mummy
OF a little princess seven years old.
She was dressed and inferred In a
manner betting her rank, and In her
arms was found a little wooden doll.
The inscription gave the name, rank
and age OF the little girl and the date
OF her death, but 1t said nothing about
the quaint little wooden Egyptian doll.
This, however, told its own story. 1t
was so tightly clasped In the arms OF
the mummy that 1t was evident that
the child had died with her beloved
doll in her arms. .'.

Teeth MENDING IN CHILE.
Not an Easy Matter For Foreign Dem
fists TO Practice There.


Not every foreigner who comes along
with the claim of being dentist can
practice that profession I'm Chile. The
government sees to 1t that any one
who is to look after the health and
preservation Of the teeth of its people
must first demonstrate his qualifica-
lions.
The law provides that before IL
cense may be granted foreigner to
practice dentistry In the country the
applicant must secure permission from
the rector Of the University Of Chile to
take the examination. His foreign di-
ploma, duly certified and authenticat-
ed, must be attached to the permit, and
q fee Of 500 pesos about $50 in United
States money! must be deposited for
the license in the Office Of the secre-
tary of the university. IL the applicant
passes the examination successfully the
license is issued, and he is authorized
to open his Office for business.
Any applicant who holds a dental
diploma from a school not known or
recognized by the Chilean authorities
is REQUIRED to complete the third years
work of the dental department Of the
University Of Chile and must also pass
satisfactory examination before he
can obtain q license to practice.-Pan.

BAD TASTE IN FURNITURE.
A Preachment About Good Lines and
Hard Woods.

1t must have been William Morris
who discovered the bad state Of things,
for he was the most conspicuous mem.
Der OF the pre- Raphaelite brotherhood,
the group OF persons who banded
themselves together to see II they
could not better matters. To make
way for better things the bad had to
be done away, and Morris faithfully
crusaded against the anti-macassar, the
whatnot the floral carpet. the gilded
chair, the old black haircloth and the
hideous furniture of the time.
he fell short Of absolute success be-
cause he tried to create a new and bet
ter thing. IL he had only turned the
tide backward and resurrected the
beautiful furniture OF the eighteenth
century the world would have been
just so much more full Of good and
beautiful things. Instead, he made
possible by his movement the SIMPLEX
ty OF the newer furniture. which,
IL not thing OF beauty in ITSELF clear
ed the decks for action, so that when
its time was run somebody else would
cast the necessary backward glance.
All this, OF course. has taken up I'M
til this twentieth century. The back
ward glance happened some years be-
fore the merchants began to feature
period styles. In between people real
lied that there had never been dis.
played such genius as the designing OF
furniture In the bygone time. They
took to it as ducks to water. lu
vogue had increased and grown until
the whole modern furniture trade mas
bent its back to accomplishing TINS
business properly.

Let us suppose a railway to have
been built between the earth and Cen
taurus, said the lecturer. BY con-
sideration Of this railways workings
we can get some idea Of the enormous
distance that intervenes between the
constellation Centaurus and us-that
being the nearest" to our solar sys-
tenn.
Suppose that / should decide to take
a trip on this new aerial line to the
nearest fixed stsr. I ask the ticket
agent what the fare is and he answers:
"The fare is very low, sir. It is only
a cent each hundred miles,"
"And what, at that rate, will be the

answers. .- ..,.f IA.

Corsaae Bouquets,

Probably never before have artihciai
flowers had such a vogue as at presenI,
and a small corsage bouquet is one o.
the best means OF giving color TO .
dark street suit.
There are punches of tiny flowers "
brilliant reg that are very good. There
are bouquets consisting Of a rosebud. :
few forget-ne-nots and a sprig or two
Of green. There are also nasturtiums'
poppies and many other flowers u
their own natural rich coloring.
The placing OF the flower is rather
important. 1t can be pinned to tne
left shoulder with good effect and looks
well at the closing OF the ruff or Gloss
collar OF velvet and fur.

HIS CHEERFUL RECEPTION.

The Compliment Came After He Made
His Little Talk.
A Washington newspaper man was
once a member of congress from an
Ohio district. He is not an orator and
rarely makes a speech. When he was
running for congress he got word that
he must come to a small town on the
edge of his district to attend meeting
A famous "spellbinder" had been Sc
cured, and the candidate was expected
to be there, to shake hands and show
himself.
When he arrived at the village he
was horror stricken to find that the
speaker of the occasion had missed his
train and would not be there.
"Come right up to the hail." said the
chairman Of the delegation that met
him. There's a big crowd there, and
they are anxious to hear some talking"
The candidate went I'm fear and trem-
bling. He was introduced and talked
for fifteen minuees. He started to sit
down, but the chairman motioned him
to continue. He went on for another
quarter of an hour and by that time
had told all be knew or ever expected
to know that was Of interest to his au-
dience.
Then he dropped into his chair. The
man who was presiding came cheerful
ly forward and said: I'VE have heard
our candidate. Now, If there Is any
one present who can make a speech We
shall be glad to hear him."-Youth's
Companion.

CREAMERY MAKING GOOD
Tile local creamery, like near
i ly every other cooperative
organization, has weathered thru
some pretty tight places. In
fact in the early days of it's ex-
istence it hit the bumps so rap
idly and regularly that it took a
plunge into receivership. The
two obstacles with which the lit
tie institution has had to contend
was strong competition from the
city creameries and lack of con-
fidence on the part Of the dairy
men.
Competition from the city
creameries is a club with which
every little local creamery must
expected to be swatted at some
time or other. The only protec-
ton against this club is the con-
fidence and loyalty of local pa
irons. No small town creamery
can hope to succeed unless it's
dealings are with a class of farm
ers who are willing to give the
local institution the benefit of
the doubt and who do not rise to
the bait of unusually high prices
which are occasionally dangled
before their eyes by the city
creamery.
When the creamery was reor-
gained two years ago more
cream was being shipped out of
the valley than was being sold
to the local creamery. The farm
ers, however, were not to blame
for this condition for the man
agement had been such as to des-
troy rather than to inspire con-
fidence. Cream tests were UNI
satisfactory, payments were
slow and the stability of the in
stitution was questionable.
"A far different condition pre-
walls today. The cream can at
the railroad siding is practically
a thing of the past and with one
or possibly two exceptions every
dairyman from Richland to Ho-
yer is a patron of the local cream
cry Payments are made twice
every month. Altho handicapped
by a lack of surplus working cap
ital the local plant has maintain
ed an average price for butterfat
a few points above the city mar
ket and at the same time has
sold it's output so as to show a
fair profit on the years business.
It is not difficult to trace the
cause for the local creamery's
success. The farmers, in the face
of repeated Disappointment,
finally succeeded in getting to-
gether. When once they did get
together it didn't take long to
realize that success was assured
if they but continued to stand to-
gether. -. .-szE .#, I'll. :.
Unusual credit is due the Rich
land farmers for the manner in
which they have supported the
creamery. They could not have
been more loyal to the creamery
and it's interests had the plant
been located in their own town.
