Yet every school goog- rapuy snows uini me iwo nvers now Into the sea of Aral, and the Jaxartes , most certainly rises in no "mountains o India." : Shakespeare wrote of "the coast of Bohemia," and In his "Gertrude of Wyoming" Campbell had tigers prowl ing through the Jungles of Pennsylva nia. Such "Ignorance in high places" cannot be excused, for, with ordinary ease, Gibbon, Shakespeare and Camp bell could have ascertained the facts. WOMAN. Woman is the masterpiece. Confu cius. Shakespeare has no heroes, only hero ines. Huskln. Women teach us repose, civility and dignity. Voltaire. Woman ls the most perfect when the most womanly. Gladstone. If woman lost Eden, such as she alone can restore lt Whlttier. There is a woman at the beginning of all great things. Lamartlne. Woman ls last at the cross and ear liest at the grave. E. S. Barrett A handsome woman ls a jewel; a good woman ls a treasure. Sanldl. The sweetest thing In life ls the un clouded welcome of a wif e. N. P. Wil lis. For where ls any author In the world who teaches such beauty as a woman's eyes? Shakespeare. Heaven has nothing more tender than a woman's heart when it is the abode of pity. Luther. "Anglo-Saxon KnarlUh." There ls an old fallacy that Anglo Saxon words are the best The fallacy Is based on the belief that words of Anglo-Saxon origin are more simple and vigorous than those derived from Latin. In point of fact, some Anglo Saxon words are obscure and long, and many of our commonest most simple words are from the Latin. The Lon don News tells a story in point A barrister more remarkable for the rigor of his address to Juries than for his learning was commenting on the proceeding of the other party In a case under trial. "I. do not know what gloss my learned friend is going to put upon this matter, but I will not mince my words. I denounce lt in plain, downright Anglo-Saxon as a nefarious transaction." Early Mention of Nlntrarn Fall. The first historical notices of Niagara falls are given In Lescarbot's record of the second voyage of Jacques Cartler, in the year 15U5. Ou the maps pub lished to Illustrate Champlnfn's discov eries (ditto of maps either 1013 or 1014) the falls are indicated by a cross, but no description of the wonderful cata ract ls given, and the best geograph ical Authorities .living toduy doubt If the explorer mentioned ever saw the falls, Brlnton's work to the contrary notwithstanding. Father Hennepin ls believed to have written the first de scription of the falls that was .ever penned by one who bad personally vis ited the spot. j .1. Solemn Warning.

Mr. Boffin Well, that only goes to bow that some women In trying to fol low the fushious can go too far. Illus trated Bits. Occasionally one meets an Individual 0 grouchy that he seems to think he would be arretted for burglary if be broke Into a smile. Ohio State Journal 'tfWE OPENING TOOLS. guarded as closely as a bank vault A. watchman stays in it all night We are very careful about employing our men. J They must give bonds and have the best of references. The chance of a burglar getting into our employ for the purpose of learning our methods is scarcely worth thinking about. "Very frequently we have hurry calls for a man to open a safe where the time clock has gone askew or where the " ter. but ose fenowa nearly always get caught. "A police officer told me that burglars make their own tools. The big crooks are all spotted and are afraid to go out and buy the material for them. Some of them send their wives and children." Philadelphia Ledger. .' POULTRY POINTERS. The best way to feed corn to young chickens is cracked or crushed. A good dust bath will go far toward keeping fowls In good condition. Clear, raw corn meal wet with water is ' i good feed for young ducklings at ny time. Destroy the nest of a sitting hen as soon as the chickens are a day old. Give her a new nest and burn the old one. Separated early and raised up by themselves, pullets are worth at least 25 per cent more for use than if al lowed to run wlthj lot of cockerels. On the farm if more than one breed is kept it is necessary that they be kept separate, and one or the other must be kept confined part of the time. It ls important to keep the young turkeys dry until they are about eight weeks old; and even then they should be strong and well developed. Damp ness ls almost always fatal to young turkeys. Religion. Training of Japanese. Little or no Importance ls attached to the religious training of Japanese children. Whether the parents be Buddhists or Shlntolsts lt matters not, for in either case the children rarely take any part In the religious life of their parents or elders, and indeed usually grow up in blissful ignorance as to what it ls all about True, they may occasionally be taken to the tem ple and taught to rub their palms to gether, clap thrice and incline their heads toward the shrine as they toss their offering of rin through the wood en grating of the huge money till. They may have some vague notion that there ls something meritorious in all this, but nothing more, although every Japanese home has a latticed niche, or kamidana, dedicated to the service of the household Lares and Penates, or Dalkoku and Ebisu as they appear In Japan. Mo Reptile. In Newfoundland. Everybody knows that there are no snakes In Ireland, but very few know that Newfoundland ls Just like Ireland In that respect, and there is no record that Newfoundland had a St Patrick to drive the snakes off either. There ls plenty of game In Newfoundland, but not a reptile of any kind snako, toad, frog, lizard or even turtle. An other queer thing about the province is that while some wild animals are abundant there no one ever saw a squirrel, porcupine, mouse of lynx any where within its boundaries. This is all the more singular because the ad joining provinces of Nova Scotia and Cape Breton have all these animals and many kinds of snakes and other reptiles. An Achievement. "I don't see why you should be so proud of winning that case," snld the Intimate friend. "You were plainly In the wrong." j "Too don't understand these things at all," answered the lawyer. "That's the very thing that makes me so proud." Exchange. Ta Wt.dom of WtaeweU. Nottt That fellow Wlsewell could have given Solomon a few 'pointers.

"Didn't you once say that your wife was the making of youT "Only once," answered Mr. Meekton, Henrietta heard it and said lt was very unkind tnd unjust to blame her In that manner." Waghlnjjton Jtar, INDIGESTION I "I m troabled with stem- ch trouble. Thcdford'i Black- I Draught did me more food J in on weak than all Um doe tor'a medicine I took in year." MBS. -SARAH B. . , BHIBFIELD, EUettarille, Ind. Thedford'eBlackDranght quickly invigorates the ao tion of the stomach and cures even chronic cases of indigestion. If you will take a small dose of Thed ford's Black Draught occa sionally you will keep your stomach and liver in per fect condition. THEDFORM BLA(K-DRAIM More sickness is caused by constipation than by any other disease.

Put an end to misery. Doan's Ointment cures. At any drug store. A Parson's Noble Act. "I want all the world to know," writes Rev. C. J. Budlong, of Ashaway, R. I , "what a thoroughly good and re liable medicine I found in Electric Bit ters. Tbey cured i me of jaundice and liver troubles that bad caused me grea suffering for many years. For a genu ine, all-around cure they excel anything I ever saw." Electric Bitters are the eurprisa of all for their wonderful work in Liver, Kidney and Stomach traubles Don't fail to try them. Only 50 cents Satisfaction is guaranteed by G. A. Harding. i Raised From the Dead. C. W. Landls, "Porter" for the Oriental Hotel ' Chanute, Kan., saye: "I knew what lt was to suffer with neuralgia Indeed I did, and I got a bot tle of Ballard's Snow Liniment and I was 'raised from the dead." I tried to get some more, but before I had "diposed' of my bottle, I was cured entirely. I am telltn' de truth too," 26c, SOo and 11 at Charman & Co's. SUMMONS.
