We gave them credit always for the high md right motive, and suspended judg- nent till they had told their side. But they were wrong they were not pun 1hed. The fact that they had fallen Below what had been expected of them was punishment enough. A certain Utandard of conduct was thus estab- lshed that they lOnged always to real he They were able, even then, to see lhe beauty of certain qualities and the l9giiness of others.

 Character cannot be built from the butside. Coercion does not make for @trength-only for compliance. That, - seems to me, is the great mistake uome parents make.

 When the guiding hand is lifted, so many are left with no deep convlc- hl0ns-principles to shape their des- tiny-but impulses.

To trust to them for guidance is like going out upon a stormy sea in tiny craft at the mercy of tossing waves and wind. -Katron Trousdale, in Christian Her ald.

CEN1ER" Or BRITISH EMPIRE
Unpretentious Dwelling In London Houses the Real Rulers of Great
 Commonwealth of Nations

For POO years severely plain and ing has become widely known through out the world as Britain's central of fee of the diplomatic service No. 10 Downing street" refers to one of London's historic houses on the so- called "street of power" which nestles close to the confines of Whitehall. There have dwelt therein celebrities, such as Walpole. Pitt, Chatham. Can ming, Disraeli and Gladstone. In all. no fewer than fifty ministers have lived there.
 Sir George Downing, after whom the thoroughfare is named, was the son of a London barrister, a nephew of Governor Winthrop of Massachu- setts colony, and a graduate of Har- yard, who obtained the house as gift from Charles II as a reward for unusual service performed by him while he was representing his country in Holland. He had emigrated to America at the age of fourteen and when he left Harvard. in 1645, youth of twenty-one, he became an itinerant preacher in the West Indies Shortly afterward he returned to England and became a chaplain in Colonel Okey's regiment. As a faithful Puritan, who later in life assured Charles II that he saw the error of his ways due to the principles imbibed during his stay in New England, he shortly afterward en- rolled under Cromwell as a scout mas ter.
 After Downing's death, when the lease on the building lapsed to the crown, the property was given to the Hanoverian minister, Count Bothma, by George II, and, when the count died, was rendered to Walpole, who accept ed it on condition that the house should forever remain the residence of Brit aims ministers.

Castle Rock Tn Kansas.

One of the most interesting works of nature in Kansas from a geological standpoint is known as Castle Rock" a natural formation located in Cove county, in the valley of the Hack berry, about ten miles from its mouth. This castellated mass is composed of a coping of limestone and the shaft or chalk and compact shale. Its unique formation was caused by the shales wearing away. the strongly ce- mented stone serving as a protection to the upper surface. In this way mountainous appearing masses are frequently produced, especially where streams cut their way through the hard stone into the softer materials below. Similar formations are met with in Ellis county which show isolat- ed columns which rise from 20 to TO feet in height.-Blackmar's History of Kansas.

sheep-RaIsInc old industry.

Sheep raising Is perhaps the oldest of all industries, for 1t was practiced even before agriculture. Wool is a product of cultivation or domestica- tion, for there are no wild animals which closely resemble the wool-bear- ing sheep, Floyd w. Parsons, in the Saturday Evening Post, says that with the discovery that cloth could be made from wool came an effort to improve the fleece by selection and breeding. The early Romans were most success full in this pursuit, and their endeav- Ors along this line resulted in develop ing a fleece of great fineness. After the conquest of the Iberian peninsula, Roman sheep were introduced into Spain, where they so greatly improved the native f1ocks that even during Roman supremacy Spanish wool led the worlds markets, a prestige held for many centuries.

Do You Educate Your Children?

Most parents provide for their chill dren; some take personal care of their children; but few, indeed are they who can be forced to take any part in the education of their children. education having become the business of schools, factory process, turned over entirely to the public. Here and there is a sub- lime parent who plods doggedly over the alphabet and the algebra, getting an education for himself at this late day; but such are rare, the run of par ents putting their babes into the kin. dergarten or some other educational incubator, while they themselves slip off the educational nest like cuckoos and cowbirds.- Lore Sharp, ip Atlantic Monthly.

RECALL DAYS OF SPLENDOR
Empty Palaces of Mogul Kings Serve Only to Bring to Mind Grandeur
 That Is Gone.

Should you ever feel inclined to verify tales of "The Thousand and One Persian Days" which usually be- gin with something like "Once upon a time there was raja who sat upon a golden throne, and slept upon a pearl carpet, and built a golden-roofed pavilion for a beautiful queen," you may Journey comfortably to India, then on to Delhi and Agra, and see the empty palaces of the Mogul kings that are very little changed save that they now reverberate mournfully to the footfall of western-shod feet, and their marble walls have been mellowed to the tint of old ivory by 25G years of Indian sun. So writes Eleanor Maddock in Asia Magazine.
 You may walk among the colon nades of the great hall of audience inlaid with flowers of lapis lazuli, jade, topaz and comedian that seem to grow upon the walls and burst into bloom on the very spot where rested Shah Jahan's Peacock throne" a f1orifie1 four-posted bedstead of solid gold, with a pearl-fringe canopy, upon which the emperor sat daily to dispense justice, his turban ablaze with diamonds and his lowered tunic almost hidden by ropes of pearls. Behind him sap phires, rubies and emeralds glowed from the outspread tails of two pea cocks, and over his head hung par rot wrought from a single emerald, holding in its beak the Koh-tnor dia- mond

MODERN MAGIC
BY ApOlNGroN BRUcE.)
Copyright, 1900

There is magic today as wonderful
as any recorded in the annals OF the
legendary long ago And II is the
whitest OF white magic, for its aim Is
broadly oenonclS the serving and pre-"
serving OF mankind.
Continually this wonderful white
magic is reinforcing men in their pos
session of the world.
1t safeguards them against disease.
II helps them to avert starvation. II
provides them with clothing. shelter.
and other necessaries OF life, II opens
up TO them new riches, II gives them
gainful occupations. Let -menacing
emergencies OF any kind arise, and II
may be depended upon to aid men
TO meet them.
This it does by taking the simple things
OF nature-air, water, earth, things
growing in the earth, things hidden In
the earth-and changing them to forms
and forces to which one would not
dream they could be changed.
Go into your cellar and look about
you. In one corner you have bin.
and In that bin some quantity OF hard,
rough Jumps OF substance which you
designate as coal.
To you coal means fre for the cook
ing Of your food and the warming OF
your house. Gratefully you are con-
tent that you have It TO burn. You do
not think OF putting II to other uses.
Yet again and again. without know
Ing It. you do put II to other uses. You
are able to put II to a vast number of
helpful uses-thanks to the white magic
OF today.
The magician OF today-popularly
known as a chemist--takes coal and
turns It into medicines, headache medi-
clnes, insomnia medicines, fever medi-
Cines, medicines capable of coping with
some of the most terrible OF diseases
He also turns II into perfumes: he turns
Il into dyeS--tnto DIVES of every iInagin-
able color.
Tho records you play on your phono-
graph may have their basis In coal, The
developers You use In the photographs
you delight TO take are compounded
from coal, And so as regards much else
Ia daily or frequent use.
Consider too, what the modern
magician, the chemist, does with the
simple little objects known TO you as
kernels OF corn
BY a grinding and cooking process
you are able to convert corn into bread,

PITCHING STAFF IS OK.
(BY GEORGE H. BuTLERO


Reinforcements are in sight for the
Lookouts. "Slim" Vines arrived In
Chattanooga Monday afternoon. and
1t Is learned that Manager Nioklin
and Billy Gleason have reached an
agreement on salary. The Lookouts'
star second sacker is expected here
within a few days.
Yesterdays battle with the Pills
proved very conclusively that Nick
Inns passle OF recruits will not de-
velop an adequate inner defense,
even with Anderson at first With
Gleason back at the keystone sack
and either Demoe or Graft in harness,
preferably the latter, the situation is
far different, however. One gap on
the infield may be plugged with ma
terial on hand, but hardly more than
one.
Whether or not Hart, with Bratchi
and Daniels. will complete an out
field of sufficient strength remains to
be seen. The soldier star did not
look impressive Sunday by any
means, but then 1t is too early In
the season to pass Judgment on a
player.
There is no occasion for alarm over
the pitching staff, although Marshall,
Cunningham and York were all
treated rather roughly by Cravaths
swatsmiths. With the proper sup
port not more than half q dozen
runs would have been scored hy the
National leaguers Sunday, although,
of course, the local moundsmen did
not extend themselves.
