Its faculty is composed entire- ly of Negro physicians and from a stand-point of ability, it is one of the strongest of any institution in the state wnich is conducted by members of the race. ‘The early historyof the institu- tion is an interestingone, and one which tells of a bitter struggle for survival. By degrees, sometimes almost imperceptable to those: Epo were not connected to the institu- tion, it has grown in size and use- fulness, and is one of the few insti- tutions established years ago by our people which has not only been able to survive but has increased in usefulness as well.

Richards was sent to us last December by the conference, and every since he has been our pastor he has and is still serving us faithfully, and in appreciation of his services, and in token of our love and esteem, the congregation, along with their friends, gave him a surprise party last Monday night. It was a wet and disagreeable night, but the members of the party had a very enjoyable time. The pastor greeted us with delight. Speeches were made and responses had. Prominent among those present were Messdames Charlottee Williams, Rosa Anderson, Lottie Slee, Julia Cummings, Alfreda Jenkins, Rosa Delyons. Misses Pauline Anderson, Julia Williams, Maria Hodges, Janie Anderson, Hattie Noble, Florence Williams, Messrs. Lewis Anderson, C. Perry, Henry James Williams. Vanished Earthings. ' The farthing was once quite an important little coin. In the fourteenth century, for instance, London's bakers and publicans, by order of the lord mayor, were obliged to supply farthings' worth of bread and beer to the poor. "No change" excuses were impossible. Supplies of farthings were to be obtained at the Guildhall, and the baker or publican who "run out" of change was forced to "treat" patrons to their farthings' worth of bread and beer. Today one rarely sees the coin—London Tatler. Map's Character. According to an old French saying, "A man's character is like his shadow, which sometimes follows and sometimes precedes him and which is occasionally longer, occasionally shorter, than he is." SUNDAY SCHOOL. Lesson XI.—Second Quarter, For June 15, 1913. THE INTERNATIONAL SERIES. Text of the Lesson, Gen. xlvil, 1-12. Memory Verses, 8-10—Golden Text, Rom. viii, 28—Commentary Prepared by Rev. D. M. Stearns. This is the only lesson assigned in the remaining five chapters of Genesis, and while giving some attention to "Jacob before Pharroh," the lesson title, we must consider as many as possible of many most important things of all these chapters. It is worth while to notice when Jacob is so called and when he is called Israel, the old name and the new, remembering the when and wherefore of the change. Being convinced by the sight of the wagons that Joseph still lived, he started on his journey to Egypt and at Beersheba offered sacrifices unto God. Thus began, with the entrance into Egypt of these seventy souls, the fulfillment of the word of the Lord to Abram. "Thy seed shall be a stranger in a land that is not thelrs" (Gen xv, 13, 14). The other end of the promise. "Afterward shall they come out with great substance." seems to have been so real to Jacob that, as Israel, he said to Joseph before he dled. "Behold, I die, but God shall be with you and bring you unto the land of your fathers" (svilli, 21). When Joseph died, over fifty years later, he said to his brethren: "I die, and God will surely visit you and bring you out of this land * * * And ye shall carry up my bones from hence" (1, 24, 20). When Jacob and all his household drew near to Egypt he sent Judah to advise Joseph and to direct his way. And again we think of Him who came from Judah, who only can direct our way. Joseph, being thus advised of his father's arrival at Goshen went in his charlot to meet his father and present himself unto him (xlref. 29), and who can tell what is so briefly summed up in the words, "He fell on his neck and wept on his neck a good white?" What a meeting it must have been after twenty-two years of separation, and Joseph all that time supposed by his father to be dead! Now he receives him back from the dead and finds him ruler over all Egypt and a savior of multitudes in all lands as well as of himself and his household. What a day it will be when the nation of Israel shall look upon Him whom they crucified and find in Him not only their own Messiah, but the one who will bring salvation to all nations! As Joseph's brethren found him married, so Israel shall see their Messiah associated with His bride, the church, for "when Christ, our life, shall appear, then shall we also appear with Him in glory" (Col III, 4). It seems to me that there are just two prominent things in the lesson verses of today-Pharman bestowing the best of all the land of Egypt upon Joseph's father and brethren and Jacob's reply to the question of Pharman, "How old art thou?" (Verses 6, 9, 11). Because of the death and resurrection of the Lord Jesus all who truly receive Him and thus become His brethren are blessed with all things in Him, and believing this makes us strangers and pilgrims here and fills us with a sense of our own unworthiness (1 Pet. II, 11). So Joseph nourished his father and his brethren and all their households during all the remaining years of famine (verse 12), and Jacob lived in the land of Egypt seventeen years Jacob therefore had Joseph with him the first and last seventeen years, the first seventeen of Joseph's life and the last seventeen of Jacob's life (xxxvil, 2: xlvth, 28). It is worth while to consider the seven weepings of Joseph, but I think the last is in some respects the most touching. He had nourished his brethren and their families for seventeen years, having fully assured them of his forgiveness at the beginning of that period, but now, their father being dead, they say "the will certainly require us all the evil which we did unto him." So they send a messenger asking him to forgive their trespass and their sin and the evil which they did unto him (1. 15-17). Joseph wopt when they spake unto him. Was there ever anything so mean and contemptible as such conduct? Yet see his most Christlike words in l. 19-21. He reassured them and comforted them and spake kindly unto them. What shall we say of those who, having come to Christ and received Him is their Saviour, will not take His word for it that He has freely and fully forgiven all their sins and will remember them no more, but seem to be ever in doubt concerning their acceptance? In Jacob's farewell predictions to his sons concerning the last days note the pre-eminence of Judah concerning the Messiah (xlix. 10) and the wondrous typical suggestiveness in the portion concerning Joseph (xlix. 22-26. "The stone of Israel" carries us on Isa. xxviii. 11; Ps. cxviii. 22; Matt. xxl. 42; Eph. ll. 20; I Pet. ll. 6-S; Dan. ll. 35. 45. "Separate from his brethren" is repeated in the farewell blessings of Moses (Dept. xxviii. 10) and wondrously links Joseph with Christ. "A fruitful bough by a well whose branches run over the wall" makes us think of Jesus and the Samaritan woman at Jacob's well and all that it suggests. The last words in Genesis, "a coffin in Egypt," and the story of that coffin (Ex. xll. 19; Josh. xxiv. 32; Heb. xl. 22) teach the victory of faith. US 1776 AN APPROPRIATE FAVOR.

Vanity Bags Are Dainty and Extremely Useful. Many of your young friends will graduate this year, and you are no doubt wondering what to give them. Why not make them each a vanity bag? Vanity bags are dalyty and extremely useful; therefore any girl would be delighted to possess one. It requires twelve inches of four inch wide ribbon of a plain design. Baste an inch wide hem at each end and embroider a row of brier stitching an inch from the edge on all sides of the ribbon. Fold the ends over and neatly whipstitch the sides together. Thread narrow satin ribbon through the top to form a drawstring and finish the ends with rosettes of the ribbon. If desired the center of the tiny vanity bag can be decorated with an embroidered monogram or a wreath of forgetmenots and foliage embroidered with pale pink, blue or white silk to match the ribbon used. This latter makes an especially dalynt decoration and is easily done, as the flowers are not padded. A wreath formed of miniature rosebuds, dulies or violets would be equally effective. Within the bag place a handkerchief, tiny mirror, powder puff, cake of powder and a piece of pinked flannel containing black and white pins. This little vanity bag can be placed in the pocket of the evening coat or in the muff and is always ready to aid milady when the occasion demands. Cotton Blouses Very Simple. The smartest of summer blouses in cotton materials is a very neat but coquettish affair. If there is any trimming at all it is down the front in a straight untrimmed piece of lace or embroidery. Nearly all of these new waists open in front, and often there is only a group of pin tucks about the opening, with a ruffle that is broad at THE WASHINGTON WEEKLY BLOUSE OF CREPE DE CHINE AND HAND EMBROIDERY. the neck, becoming narrower as it reaches the bust and vanishing, entirely at the waist belt. The dressiest of the new blouses are benutified with a great deal of hem- stitching, the holes coarse and the thread large. The kimono shape is much in evidence, with the yoke run- ning down the entire length of the top of the sleeve or finishing in a rounded or pointed piece just below the armhole. The sleeves vary in length from elbow to full length. Touch of Color on White. The fashionable summer idea is the white costume with a touch of color. It sometimes comes in a border print or embroidery, again as a girdle or collar or as a decorative button. Sometimes the color is seen in the weave, a yarn of bright color intermingling with white. * Night Light For a Sick Room.

They were nice, clean rompers, to be sure, but still undeniably the everyday garments. Maud put up a plea for a “best” dress, and mother took her up and put ona modest little gingham dress. “Now, Maud," she said, ‘you will have to stay on the porch with mother. You cannot play with brother in the sand pile. Wouldn't you be more com- fortable In the rompers?” “L know I can't play in the best dress,” said the small woman, “but I feel comfortable In my soul." Everye-woman will know just what Maud meant. We all feel comfortable in our souls when we are freshly and neatly dressed. It Is well not to ignore this fact when training the children.

Chicago * THEIR WORTH. : A good mans~a veritable army—of bright boys und girls ure graduating these days from town and rural bigh schools. The kind of a record they have made in deportment and scholar- ship during the ten or more years of their schooling is an important consid- eration in determining what these young people are worth is factors in their respective communities. but of far more vital import und value is the individual attitude which these, years of training have given them toward the big world which thes are so soon to enter. Every one of them—boy and girl, rich and poor—should put to him- self or herself the question. “What am I going to do with it?” Are they to be Ufters and pullers in the march of life or riders and useless freight? Is the world to be brighter and bappler and better for thelr Uving in it, or the worse off In yital ways? Each high school graduate must answer this ques- tion for himself, and answer it he will, whether he consciously puts the ques- tion to himself or not: And the prac- tical answer made will be.the world’s measure of the worth of his life. SEEDING ALFALFA. In most semiarid sectlons where moisture is the main consideration “in securing the germination of a seeding of alfalfa, the seeding bas to be timed to take advantage of this condition. In sections east of the 100th meridian, and this is particularly true where the rainfall is abundant, the matter of getting a stand of the legume hinges Often upon sowing at a season when the young plants will have Teast to contend with In the war of weeds. It ts for this reason that the early part of August fs recommended by many stations. ‘This makes it possibl¢ the land to produce a crop of early uring grain and to be put in ex- ent tilth and made largely free n weed seed hefore the alfalfa seed owed.

DEVEAUX Published by SOL. C. JOHNSON Editor and Proprietor JAS. H. BUTLER Asso. Editor and Manager Published Every Saturday 1009 West Broad Street. Phone 2171. Subscription Rates: Of the many good movements recently started by our people, none should come in for a greater share of our commendation and support than the present movement among us, for the raising of funds with which to erect a commodious building for the housing of the Old Folks and Orphans among us. That there is need for such a building within our midst, is self evident. Each day there can be seen on the streets of our city scores of the decrepit of our people, either stationed on the street corners or making their rounds of the stores and other public places in an effort to secure food and funds necessary for their daily sustenance. They indeed are the Lazaruses who seek the crumbs that fall from the table of the prosperous and failing in this must battle with the dogs for that which is thrown out as refuse. In all kinds of weather, we find these people struggling, battling, seeking or begging on our streets. Sometimes we stop and give them a penny or two; oftimes, we do not. Sometimes we feel that it is our duty to help them: oftimes we delegate the duty to the other fellow, still these beggars like ourselves and despite our irregularity in giving to them must have food and clothing regularly if they are to live. They need regular care and attention as well as we. When we give to them to-day and look to the other fellow to give to them to-morrow and perhaps the next day and the next, who knows but that there is untold deprivation and suffering in their camp? We believe in the saying that everybody's business is nobody's business. Work given to committees of the whole is seldom done as well as when the same is done by smaller committees. As long as the poor of our city must depend upon the unorganized mass of our people for succor and support, so long will their provision for their support and comfort be erratic and inadequate. There is indeed today a crying need for organized charity among us, charity so organized and regulated that its force will be concentrated. This we believe is what the company of public spirited citizens who are now seeking to establish the Old Folks and Orphan Home, are trying to do. Are we going to support them in this worthy movement? The Tribune believes that each and every one of our people, both young and old, is fully conscious of the imperative need of such a home for our old folks and orphans as is now planned by the promoters of the present movement. The Tribune believes further that our people have long since noted how there is reflection on us as a race to have the poor of our people begging from door to door when other people keep their poor from doing the same. It is indeed a reflection on us and hence ought to be provided against. And we believe that our people will do so. We believe that a commodious and comfortable structure to be used as a home for the poor of our people will soon be in course of erection and that in a very short while our streets will be depopulated of the large army of our people who are now classed as street beggars. The movement inaugurated by the Old Folks and Orphan Home Association is a good one. It should meet the approval and support of each and every one of us. We sincerely trust that if a vigorous campaign for funds among us for the benefit of the Old Folks Home is inaugurated, that our people will give generously and substantially to the cause. Since our incipiency, it has been our policy to "hew to the line," letting the chips fall where they may. We have striven to be implacable to any practice or habit among us that savored of baseness or that retarded our material progress or dwarfed our moral makeup. Sin, in its many high and chosen places, has been attacked by us and we have tried either to route it by the force of its onslaught or to make it feel, at least, uncomfortable or ill at ease. We have stood and are standing first, last and all the time, for the right as God has given us to see the right, regardless as to consequences. Adhering to our policy of sending our darts of criticism, rebuke and warning to those of us who err, we wish to call attention at this time to the insidious practice now seemingly encouraged by certain ones of our teaching fraternity, to have their students contribute funds toward the making of a purse to be used in the purchase of some article of value to be given to said teachers as tokens (of love and gratitude!) at the commencement season. Such articles of value as rocking chairs, book cases, picture easels, fountain pens, umbrellas, art squares, etc., have been purchased through individual contribution of the students and presented to some of our teachers during the commencement seasons. We cannot rid ourselves of the conviction that such a practice as the above is wrong and altogether "against the grain" of the promotion and welfare of the school. In the first place, the teacher is a hired servant. He receives a regular compensation for his services. He is not supposed to exact a single penny either directly or indirectly from his students for his pleasure or profit. Whenever he acts otherwise he proves himself a selfish designer who plans to get more out of his position of responsibility which he fills than that which he puts into it. On the other hand, the teacher is human and is most likely to have his leanings and inclinations. Nine times out of ten, whether consciously or unconsciously, he will lean toward or give his best support to the student who is able to give him the most expensive present or contribute the largest amount to the purse made up in his interest. And too, the giving of presents to teachers by students has a tendency to create within the student who gives this feeling, that the teacher is so obligated to him or that his hands are so tied by his receiving the gift, that whenever there is a case of discipline or a question of scholarship in which the student figures, that he will be lightly handled or favored by the teacher regardless as to the merits or demerits of the case in hand. Other instances may be cited to show the folly or lack of wisdom, and at the same time, selfishness on the part of the teacher who allows himself to become the recipient of expensive gifts at the hands of his pupils. The mothers and fathers of our boys and girls who attend school ought to be made to feel that their children owe to their teachers nothing whatever of a monetary value. While they should be taught to be respectful, polite and grateful to them for their services, at the same time, they should not be made to feel that they are obligated to their teachers to the extent of making a financial sacrifice in order to win their approval and friendship. The practice of giving and receiving presents in our schools ought to be discouraged. Our teachers should not expect such, nor encourage the same. Let us sincerely hope that another year will find the insidious practice among some of our teachers discontinued and that each and every teacher of our community will be a live advocate of those principles and practices in the school room that do not in the least smack of selfishness.

Colored Millinery Store 464 WEST BROAD ST Just one year ago, released from a body worn with suffering, the spirit of our loved one entered into eternal rest. She had been so true in every relation of life as mother and grand mother, and we know that she heard the words of her Master as He spoke, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant, enter thou into the joys of thy Lord!" We cannot regret her passing into immortal life, but the loneliness and the emptiness of life without her are hard to bear but to her, such a joyous translation. The sorrow is to those of us who are left. She has gone to her reward and has now the beautiful home in heaven built by her good and faithful work here. This is only a slight testimonial of love and respect from the ones who knew and loved her best. Mrs. Jessie R. Whiteman Mrs. Willie R.

The so called cold blooded animals vary from the warm blooded in the particular that their blood changes temperature in accordance with their surroundings. The temperature of a fish will be almost exactly the same as that of the-water around it, possibly one or two degrees higher. A snake's temperature is higher in summer than in winter, the average being 82 degrees. A bird's average temperature is 107. The average temperature of the mammals is 101 degrees. The Mystery of Death O death, how bitter is the thought of thee! How speedy thy approach! How stealthy thy steps! How uncertain thy hour! How universal thy sway! The powerful cannot escape thee; the wise know not how to avoid thee; the strong have no strength to oppose thee; the rich cannot bribe thee with their treasure. Thou art a hammer that always strikes, a sword that is never dull, a net into which all fall, a prison into which all must enter, a sea on which all must venture, a penalty which all must suffer, a tribute which all must pay. O death, death. Implacable enemy to the human race, why didst thou enter into the world? - Luis de Granada. Foot and Forearm- The foot should be as long as the ulna, or chief bone of the forearm—that is, from the small head of the bone to be seen at the wrist to the point of the elbow should be the length of the foot Above the Law. Under the international law a monarch is above any legal consideration such as hampers a subject, however illusorious. Should he refuse to pay his hotel bill he could not be sued for it. In the improbable event of the king of England knocking down a Frenchman in Paris or a Prussian in Berlin no policeman could lay bands on him. As a matter of constitutional law the king of England was at one time a sort of prisoner in his own country.

They have a wise ten-year-old boy in an east end family, and some of his sayings are really worth peddling. At least, his father thinks they are, or he wouldn't tell this one. The other day the youngster approached the father and stared at him for some time. "Daddy," he finally said, "you think mamma is the most beautiful person you ever saw, don't you?" "Of course," replied the father, with great promptness. Again the boy scrutinized his parent, "Gee, daddy," he finally said, "it's an awful pity she can't say the same about you, ain't it?"—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Nearing the Finish: She had just said yes. "Helgo," he sighed wearily as she snuggled up with her head on his manly chest. "It has been a long and a hard race." "Yes," she replied.

Greenland Whales The great Greenland whale has no teeth, its baleen plates, or whalebone, taking their place. Along the center of the palate runs a strong ridge, and on each side of this there is a wide depression along which the plates are inserted. These are long and flat, hanging free, and are placed across the mouth with their sides parallel and near each other. The base and outer edge of the plates are of solid whalebone, but the inner edges are fringed, filling up the interior of the mouth and acting as a strainer for the food, which consists of the small swimming mollusks and medusae or jellyfish.—Exchange. EVIL HABITS. Do not contract evil habits. If persisted in they will surely change one's nature. The worst penalty of evil doing is to grow into likeness with the bad, for each man's soul changes, according to the nature of his deeds, for better or for worse. 4 MISS HARRIET WARE. Miss Harriet Ware, the young American composer, is now recognized among the foremost women composers of the world. Her work has been published only a few years, but from childhood she has expressed herself in musical composition. When a young girl Miss Ware appeared as a concert pianist and won great praise for her interpretations of Bach. Later, during her study in Paris, she developed a sweet, true singing voice, and since then she has been a deep student of the art of singing. It is this quality of pianistic ability, added to the understanding of the singing voice, which makes her songs a universal appeal to great artists and the public. Her "Boat Song" and "The Cross," the words of the latter written by Edwin Markham; the "Hindu Slumber Song" and the "Sunlight Waltz" are some of Miss Ware's compositions that are to be found on the programs of famous vocal artists. Miss Ware's more ambitious works are the cantatas "Sir Olaf" and "Undine," which were recently given in New York city with a chorus of 500 picked voices. Miss Ware is a born naturalist, and her thoughts follow the suggestions of nature of melody and of rhythm, and she is not in sympathy with the modern trend of music, although this young composer is not insensible to the sincerity of men like Debussy, but she is restive at the thought of an imitative school of followers who acquire his theories without his genius. "I must be absolutely myself," she says, "and I think there are both sanity and wholesomeness in American genius." Watchman For Her Neighbors. A girl who was obliged to be a stay at home each summer because the contents of her slim purse would not allow her any vacation conceived the idea one summer of acting as "watch woman" for her wealthy neighbors who went away each summer and closed up their houses. They paid her well for her services, as they knew she was honest, reliable and conscientious in her duties. She kept the keys to their homes in her possession, as well as the addresses and long distance phone numbers of the owners, so that she could notify them immediately if anything went wrong, such as fire, burglary, etc. Every day she went the rounds of inspection, going through each house to see that everything was undisturbed and locking it securely on leaving. At Summer Resorts. A young woman clever in the use of water colors has for several summers made a substantial sum of money by painting sets of paper dolls and offering them for sale in exclusive summer hotels. They create a perfect furore among the little girls, who are eager to buy each new set as it appears, and in most cases the hotel management has been quite willing to handle them at the candy or cigar counters free of charge. It is always a problem to know how to amuse the children at summer resorts, and the grownups welcome so clean and quiet an occupation as paper dolls. High school girls would find this an easy way to secure extra frocks or frills for commencement time. English Peers becomes Editor. The first peeress to become an editor is the Marchloness Townshend, who has been selected in that capacity by the new magazine Our Dumb Friends. The first number was recently issued for private circulation. It is understood that to make the magazine pay there will be other features than those pertaining to animals, such as a social department and a sporting page "featuring" particularly dog and horse exhibitions, all of which will be under the direct supervision of Lady Townshend.

Moderns, however, owe the familiar nursery story directly to the Frenchman, Charles Perrault, whose "Cindrillon" appeared at the end of the seventeenth century. Perrault took his Cinderella from earlier versions, which came no doubt from the story of "Rhodophis Bath." That Egyptian beauty had prepared to bathe when an eagle swooped on one of her slippers, carried it to Memphis and dropped it on the lap of King Psammetichus as he sat administering justice. He admired it, had Egypt searched for its owner, married her and lived happy ever after. Her Idea of It: Mr. Gotham—I see the Bedouin marriage does not take much time. The bridegroom cuts the throat of a sheep and spills the blood on his father-in-law's threesold, and it is all over. Mrs. Gotham—No, it's not. either. Somebody's got to clean up the muss, and I suppose it is the poor bride. Yonkers Statesman. To Keep Matches Dry. A novel method of carrying matches on one's person in the wet without having them become soaked is to immerse a box of safety matches in paraffin until a solid cake is formed, out of which a match may be broken when, desired. When the match is scratched the coating of "waterproof" is rubbed off its top and also off the composition abrasive on the box, thus permitting the match to ignite. This is a simple expedient, which will be sure to appeal to all woodsmen, professional or amateur. Outing. Profitable Begging. "Mr. Scribble," called out the old millionaire.

Time was, not so very long ago, when the boys and the girls, too, for that matter, thought there couldn't be a Fourth of July without a great noise of bursting firecrackers and other dangerous and loud, banging fireworks. Now things are quite different. So many children were killed and seriously injured, so much property destroyed, that a safer way of celebrating the Declaration of Independence was evolved. We still have parades and music and flags and fireworks, but the latter are handled only by men who know the dangerous properties of gunpowder. The flag of our country is surely inspiration enough for patriotic children, and the "stars and stripes" can be used in many ways to celebrate the nation's birthday. The two patriots in the picture have a good idea of the decorative effects of Old Glory and have made a striking picture as their tribute to the birthday of freedom. Games For the Fourth. Lawn hunts are splendid games for a Fourth of July party. For a contest hunt, for example, dozens of pieces of white note paper, each with a question of some kind, are hidden all over the lawn, in the bushes, hedges, the rustic seats, the flower borders—everywhere. Some of them have quotations on them, with a request for the author's name; some have a bit of bark or a leaf wrapped up in them and a demand for its source and name; some have the name of a tune and a request that the finder sing it, and so on. The one who finds the most papers and answers them correctly wins a prize. The peanut hunt calls for any quantity of peanuts. Some are wrapped in blue tissue paper, some in plink, some in white, and then they are hidden all over the lawn, the blue ones always in the hardest places. The hunter who finds the most blue wrapped peanuts wins a prize. A heart hunt needs dozens of little red cardboard hearts, to be hidden about the lawn. A dozen slightly larger ones a cut irregularly in half and the halves hidden apart from each other. Each player finding a plain heart counts one; any player finding the two halves of a large heart, which fit together properly, counts 20, and the one counting the highest at the end of the game wins the prize. Conundrums. When is a theatrical manager like an astronomer? When he discovers a new star. Why is the letter "J" like a young spendthrift? Because it makes pa pay. Why is a drawn tooth like a thing forgotten? Because it is out of the head. What is that which is often brought to table, often cut, but never eaten? A pack of cards. What is that which lives in winter, dies in summer and grows with its root upward? An icicle. What is the military definition of a kiss? A report at headquarters. Why, the Fourth Was Made. Now, listen, dolly, while I tell about this glorious day. Why all the folks for miles around rejoice and shout "Hurray!" You know, long, many years ago—I can't remember dates— My gran'd dad went to war one day with all his loyal mates. Flerce fights were fought, and cannons roared, and bullets flew like dust. And still he fought, my gran'd dad did, for quell the foe he must. He was the very bravest man that ever held a gun. Not all the famous generals, doll, were braver—no, not one. My gran'd dad led his regiment through storms-of fire and shot. A holiday to 'member him, who never was afraid. So don't you listen, dolly, dear, to what the neighbors say. They'll tell you that the Fourth is just called Independence day. Because long 'fore gran'd dad lived the English owned the land. And so the poor Colonials they formed a rebel band And signed a declaration that they'd independent be. And that is how America is now so brave and free. But you and I, my dolly, can't understand these things. So we'll remember gran'd all the celebration brings.

Girls, as a rule, do not care much to play baseball, although most of them like to watch a game in which their brothers and acquaintances are taking part. Perhaps girls do not care to play because they lack the knack of throwing the ball. When they do acquire this art, however, and can throw overhand with precision girls do about as well as boys.

GIRL PLAYING BALL seen handling a ball with as great skill as their male companions. They can send a ball on a line with the real masculine throw, long supposed to be an impossibility for the gentler sex. The girl in the picture was snapped by the photographer as she was reaching for a throw. You can see that she handles her glove like a real ball player. There were several girls on the field fully as skillful, but she was the only one caught by the camera. Exercise in the open is necessary to robust health, and the young people of both sexes should take advantage of the summer season to strengthen their muscles and inflate their lungs. Little "I will" was a very small boy with the sweetest face any one could wish to see, and under his white blouse, with its big sailor collar, beat the sweetest little heart that ever grew. Of course "I will" had another name. His "really truly" name he would have told you was Louls, but those who knew him thought that "I will" sulted him better. "Dear," mother would say, "will you run upstairs and get my scissors? You will find them on the sewing machine." "I will, I will!" would sing out the pleasant little voice, and in a twinkling the scissors would be put in mother's hand. Or father would say: "Louls, gather up your toys. It is almost supper time." "I will!" would come the smiling answer. Dear little "I will!" He is a big boy now, big enough to study Latin and all sorts of other hard things, but the sunshine of his merry baby ways has never faded from hismother's heart. What a pity there is not a little "I will" in every home!-Sunbeam. Game of Portrait. In the game called portrait one person leaves the room, while the others choose the name of some one they all know. The person on entering the room has to guess the name selected by asking questions to be answered by "yes" or "no." For instance: "Is she married?" "No." "Have I seen her today?" "Yes." "Has she fair hair?" "No." Sometimes the company choose the one who went outside for the "portrait" and the guessing is more difficult. Riddles and Answers. When is a soldier not half a soldier?

Answer.-Tobacco FARM ORCHARD AND GARDEN BY F.E.TRIGG REGISTER, ROCKFORD, IA. CORRESPONDENCE SOLICITED The reason why it is not advisable to throw any quantity of sawdust around fruit trees is that it contains an acid that tends to sour the soil. Forty-two per cent of the folks who live in the United States make their home in the cities. It is little wonder, in view of this, that there is a back to the land movement. Cleanliness in handling, in straining and in separating the milk is a factor that cannot be too carefully adhered to, for prevention is the main road to quality in all dairy work. Scratches or cracked heels in horses may be largely prevented by keeping the stall floor clean and dry and may be cured by washing the affected parts, drying them and applying carbolated vaseline. The man who takes a book or magazine along with him when he goes fishing undoubtedly shows a desire to make the most of his time, but he can hardly be called a simon pure follower of old Ike Walton. The use of covered milk pails has been found to reduce the number of bacteria in milk in the ratio of twenty, to one. This means cleaner milk, purer milk, and milk that will stand considerably longer before souring. The most used as well as usually the most abused of the human members are the feet. Because they are "on the job" so many hours during the day they should be provided with as good fitting and comfortable footwear as it is possible to secure. The Irish lady who offered as a plea in court in defending herself against the charge of selling milk that did not contain the required amount of butter fat that her cows got too much dew on the grass that they consumed early in the morning was admonished to let her cows sleep longer. The Langshan, one of the more popular of the heavyweight sitting breeds, is a native of China, having been introduced into the United States in 1870 by a Major Croad. The standard weight for the cock bird is ten pounds, cockel eight pounds, hen seven pounds and pullet six pounds. The scattering of the spores from the red cedar blossoms or balls to the nearby apple trees may be materially checked by snipping these balls off before they get to the "ripe" or transmitting stage. Spraying experiments with dilute lime-sulphur show a-control of the rust that is only 10 per cent effective. The general idea of the Indian being the easy victim of the white man's trickery seems to be reversed in the case reported from British Columbia where a group of Indians staked what they claimed was a rich gold district and then proceeded to unload it on greedy American and Canadian gold seekers. Glanders. the worst disease with which horses are afflicted, is not curable, and in most states the law requires the case to be reported at once and the affected animal destroyed. In addition to its being incurable, the disease is dangerous because of the ease with which it may be communicated to those having the care of the sick animal. Several towns in the writer's home state have been completely rid of dandelions by bands of Italian laborers belonging to railroad construction camps located in the neighborhood. In their spare hours they scour the lawns and town and country roadsides, taking the plants to their camps and putting them down in barrels with sugar and getting a fair quality of wine. Those who are growing alfalfa for the first time this year will be anxious to cut the crop at the right time. This is when about one-tenth of the blossoms are out, but before the new shoots from the crown of the plants get tall enough to be clipped with the mower. While cutting a little later than this increases the value of the first hay crop, it usually reduces the quantity and value of the second cutting. What is said to be the highest price ever paid for a calf in the United States was received lately by a Holstein breeder of Middletown, N. Y., for a six-weeks-old Holstein bull calf. The purchase price was $3,000, and the little chap went to a Scranton (Pai breeder. His name is calculated to be in keeping with the long price paid for him, being King Pontiac Alcartra Pietje. The sire of the calf is the $10,000 bull King Segis Pontiac Alcartra. A Minnesota farmer has found a very effective method of getting rid of pocket gophers to be punching holes into their runways with an end gate rod or broomstick and dropping in raisins, the seeds of which have been replaced with crystals of strychnia sulphate. Close confinement is contrary to nature and has a tendency to make animals, as well as human beings, morose and ugly. It is true of the herd bull and a family dog, many of both kinds of animals being rendered both dangerous and largely useless by following this policy. It is best not to cut asparagus after the 1st or middle of June for northern latitudes. This will enable the stalks to make a vigorous growth and will mean a corresponding development of the root system. If the feathery tops are wanted later in the summer for purposes of decoration they should be cut sparingly and scatteringly. The state drainage commissioner of the state of Missouri is authority for the assertion that his home state leads all others in the work of reclaiming swampy and overflowed lands. During the past five years more than 1,000,000 acres have been reclaimed and projects are afoot for the redemption of 3,000,000 acres more. There is a sort of grim and satisfying humor in the way that the old skiffin and bulldozer who has starved and worried the very life out of his first wife is made to "toosen up" and stand around when wife No. 2 appears on the scene. Often he has taken the younger woman for an easy mark, but he has a rude and abrupt awakening. A 22 callber rifle is the best weapon for dispatching the small red squirrel that may be making headquarters about the premises. These little wretches will raid and kill a nestful of half grown birds quicker than any bird enemy the writer knows of. Inasmuch as the birds have an economic value and the squirrels have not, the latter should be put out of the way. The best time to thin either peaches or apples is when they range about the size of a bickory nut. It will be impossible to get all of the thinning done when the fruit is just this size, but the nearer one can come to doing it the better. Peaches should be thinned to five or six inches apart on the tree, depending somewhat upon size, while apples should be thinned to six or seven inches apart. The following recipe for making fly repellant for cattle has been tested out by a number of dairymen and seems to give good results: Three quarts of fish oil, one quart of petroleum and one ounce of carbolic acid. This should be applied at intervals with a hand-power sprayer. When the hair becomes coated with the composition the spraying will not have to be made so frequently. A large number of biennial weeds of which the burdock and dandelion are representative may be easily exterminated by hoeing up the plants that are in their first year and by cutting plants of the second year's growth just below the heart. The directions given are not effective in killing perennial plants, such as the nettle and quackgrass, which not only multiply by seeding, but by means of underground root stalks. Notwithstanding the great improvement in farm implements and methods of agriculture in the western hemisphere, there are still sections of China in which the primitive methods of hundreds of years ago are still employed. In plowing two men with ropes over their right shoulders and going tandem haul a very crude affair that turns a furrow six inches wide. In plowing a acre they travel fifteen miles. As each furrow is opened the seed is scattered, and the next furrow covers it. Many a young man makes a fizzle of life because he starts out on the assumption that whatever progress he may make is largely the result of having a "pull"—that is, outside assistance from relatives and friends. The best "pull" any young man can have, and the only one that is worth a continental in the long run, is that which is the result of his own industry, sobriety and determination. Eventually he must stand on his own pegs, and the sooner he realizes this fact the better off he will be. Readers of this department may be interested in the growing of alfalfa should send to the department of agriculture at Washington for Farmers' Bulletin No. 339, prepared by J. M. Westgate. The author has spent years in studying the growing of alfalfa in every state in the Union, and the bulletin referred to gives the results of his research. The author is a Kansas man and had extensive experience in the growing of the legume in his native state before investigating it in other districts. The luxuriance as well as the hardiness of the common wild sweet clover as it is seen growing on hard and beaten roadsides and on the thin solls of railway cuts and river banks would seem to indicate quite conclusively that it has a mission as a crop to grow on the rough and less fertile portions of the farm. If used as pasture the cattle should be allowed to graze on it while it is tender, while if it is cut for hay it should be harvested before it gets old and tough. It is a soil loosener and enricher and should at least be given a trial where it is not possible to grow clover or alfalfa. The production of cement for 1912 broke all records in the history of the industry, the total output of the different kinds being 83,351,191 barrels, valued at $67,461,513, compared with 79,547,958 barrels in 1911 and valued at $66,705,130.

Statistics that have been gathered by the federal department of agriculture show that one cow in every three in the United States does not pay for her feed bill during the year, and this takes no account of the expense of milking them twice a day during their period of lactation. THE PALM SHAVING PALACE If any of our readers live near beet sugar factories they can get lime which is well suited to scattering on land and to sweeten it for practically the cost of loading and the freight charge. This is a byproduct of the process used in the making of beet sugar and is worse than useless around the plant. - Expert Hair Cutting, Electric Massage and Shampooing a Specialty.

The creamery located at Modesto, Cal., is credited with a production of three tons of butter in a period of twenty-four hours during the flush season.

A very convenient tool for cutting out small plants such as the dandelion is made by having the end of a good sized flat file drawn out and flattened and sharpened. When ready this should be inserted in the end of a stout handle about four feet long, which will make it possible to cut the roots of the weeds without stooping over. In cutting care should be taken to go below the crown from which the new shoots start. J. H. WASHINGTON 309 WHITAKER S STREET Are You Going to New York?

Some folks have got the notion that treating seed potatoes with formaldehyde solution will prevent the development of leaf blight. This is not so. The treatment referred to will prevent scab, provided the potatoes are planted on soil that is free from spores of the scab fungus. The blight that attacks the plant above ground is of fungous origin, it is true, but is only regulated by spraying the vines with the bordeaux mixture at intervals of ten days during the muggy days of the early summer.

The most extraordinary biography in existence is neither written nor printed. It is painted. It contains the life and adventures of Charles Magnes, a noble Venetian. Having been calumniated, he determined to set himself right in the eyes of his contemporaries and employed Paul Veronese to paint his biography. The volume has eighteen pages of vellum. Each has a large central picture, surrounded by ten smaller, each having its appropriate inscription, the whole recounting the most notable scenes in his life. Why They Went.

PERSEVERANCE Perseverance is more prevailing than violence, and many things which cannot be overcome when they are together yield themselves up when taken little by little.—Plutarch. Oriental Rug Dyes. The dyes employed in the coloring of the materials that go to make up oriental rugs have always been the despair of westerners. We are told of one strange method of making the dyes of ancient days. It seems that in some places the custom prevailed of making holes in the beds of brooks during the dry season, in which, when the rain fell, all sorts of vegetable and mineral substance were deposited and left to act upon one another until the dry season arrived, when the contents of the holes were removed by the dyers, who, grinding all together indiscriminately, made shades that vied with the pigeon's breast in beauty and with the clouds of sunset in variety.

There is no fixed height for any kind of cloud. Some remarkably interesting measures of the height of clouds have been made at Vienna by an ingenious method. Advantage was taken of the extremely brilliant light furnished for a great illuminated fountain erected in that city. By means of a projector it was found that a beam of light could be sent up to the clouds, producing upon them a luminous spot capable of being observed simultaneously from points on the earth two or three miles apart. By such observations the height of certain clouds of the cirrus variety was found to be as much as 10,000 meters, or nearly 33,000 feet. A Financial Calamity. "It's no use talking," remarked Banks dejectedly; "it's impossible to make a woman understand even the first principles of finance." "What's the matter now?" inquired Henderson. "Matter!" ejaculated the disgusted Banks. "Why, when I was away yesterday the baby swallowed a threepenny piece! And what does my wife do but call in a doctor and pay him half a guinea for getting that coin back!"—London Tit-Bits. The engine had gone to pieces, the screw revolved no more, and the yacht of the millionaire rolled helplessly in the trough of the sea. Anxiously signaling for help was the wireless operator. He was approached by the owner of the craft. "I wish," said the latter, "that you would advise my wife, in Brooklyn, of our accident." "Shall I tell her the engine is broken, sir?" asked the wireless man. "By no means!" exclaimed the millionaire. "Those bald words would be discomforting to the sensitive woman. Send her a message which, while not transgressing the truth, will make her think our accident is only a trivial one. Say our screwdriver is broken."—Judge. Exorcising Disease. Very curious methods were. employed by the ancient Babylonians to exorcise disease. The sucking pig and kid played an important part in the remedies. The pig or kid was to be killed, cut up and placed upon the sick man. The heart of the pig, which had been placed upon the sick man's heart, was to be held by him, and the pig's heart was to be as his heart, the blood as his blood, the flesh as his flesh, and the pig was to be in his stead. The kid was dealt with in the same way, being placed upon the sick man. THE MEMORIAL DR. WILLIE H. JOHNSON Scientific Chiropodist. Few people realize the importance of their feet.
