By ELIZABETH MERIWETHER GILMER VOL. 25. NO. 40. THE AM By MRS GOULD AND MISS GLORIA E LEARN from the scientists of the census bureau and others who have made a study of that interesting but erratic bird, the stork, that its favorite habitat is in the cottages of the poor rather than in the palaces of the rich, and that in no GEORGE J. GOULD, JR. other place in the world is it more sel dom seen than along Fifth avenue The home of Mr. George J. Gould, however, is an exception to this rule. Seven times the domestic bird has visited and blessed that abode, each time leaving a baby so strong and lusty, so big and beautiful, that it fully justified the fond parents' declaration that it was the finest child ever born. Better still, the Gould children have grown up to be almost perfect specimens of physical health, and they are so intelligent and so natural and unaffected in character that it seems worth while to tell how this result has been accomplished, and how a wise father and mother have enabled their children to lead the simple life in the midst of millions and a luxury that makes that of the fabled Sybarites look like a makeshift with which one could get along if one had to. What to do to the heart of a mystery the French shrug their shoulders and spread out their hands, and say: "Cherchez la femme." If you desire to find the key to any family situation and know why the children of the household are what they are—virile or weak, sturdy little men and women or flabby jellyfish, potential citizens of worth or mere cumbersons of the ground—you must act as if the old French adage read: "Cherchez la mere." It is the mother that counts where children are concerned, and so I sought out Mrs. George J. Gould, and asked her for her recipe for bringing up a family. I found her in their magnificent suite of apartments at the Plaza hotel, surrounded, like Cornella, by her jewels. There was her daughter Marjorie, a lovely, slim slip of a girl, one of the debutantes and belles of the season, come in to tell of the delights of the ball of the night before. There was Edith, a sturdy little miss of seven, hanging upon her mother's shoulder. There was George, a shy lad of 12, poking his head in between the portieres from time to time. The other children were absent, and a motor was being sent to her school for Vlvian, and another to Columbia university for Kingdon and Jay, for the day was bitter cold and snow. Baby Gloria, who is only two and a half years old, was at Georgian Court with her grandmother, and trinkets were being got ready to send to her there. The room itself was a very temple of motherhood, for its empire tone had been ruthlessly sacrificed before family affection and love of things homelike, and everywhere on walls and mantles and tables there were photographs of the children—Jay in tennis flannels when he won the championship of the world, Kingdom with his first mustache, marvelously like a young edition of the kaiser, Marjorie in her debutant gown, and baby pictures innumerable. In the midst of all this evidence of a mother's brooding love sat Mrs. Gould, a radiant figure in trailing pale-blue silk, as young looking almost as her own daughter, and I thought that if I were an artist I should like to paint her as a triumphant modern Madonna, a woman to whom motherhood has brought nothing but joy, and whose children are her crown of happiness. She has had all that women crave, has this woman who is a darling of the gods. First she had success and fame, which she won by her own genius; then she was given love and marriage and enormous wealth and high social position. She has beauty that is still undimmed, but the best that life has given her children, and it is good to hear her say so. "My acquaintances have sometimes pitied me," she said with a smile, "because I have had so many bables, but I have not one child too many. I have never had a child that I did not want, or that has not found a warm welcome waiting for it. I think that is one reason why my children have all been so strong and have had suchrene dispositions. "I have felt the responsibilities of motherhood, and have tried to give my children as a good start as possible by giving them sound bodies. THE APPEAL. LDS LY. V ever padden on a stitch of flannel, not even a flannel patticoat. They have warm wraps when they go out of doors, but in the house they wear little socks and low-necked and short-sleeved cotton or woolen clothes. They live also on the simplest and plainest food—cereals and eggs, tender steaks and good roast meat, with plenty of vegetables and the simplest sort of dessert when they eat it, and pastry, and no nibbling at candy all day them. I also put great stress on absolute regularity in eating, and no matter who else waits, the children have their meals exactly on the stroke of the clock. "We are a very domestic family, and the children have their breakfast and lunch, which is really their dinner, with Mr. Gould and myself, but until they are 16 years old they have their supper at a little after six o'clock, and only have something very light to eat. They never come to dinner, unless they always it is permitted as a great treat.

And I have nursed every one of my children with my own hands when they were sick. I had trained nurses, of course, but I sat up with the sick child, too. When Marjorie had that fearful spell of scarlet fever in Franceummer before last, and when it seemed utterly impossible for her to recover, her father and I never left her day for night for weeks. The doctors said that it was the most important case they ever saw, and that nothing but the marvelous strength pulled her through. They said that if she had been a French girl she certainly would have died. "I believe that the chief thing about raising children up to be well and strong is to bring them up in the country where they can have plenty of fresh air and room for life and freedom. It was for the benefit of our children we went down to Lakewood and built Georgian Court. The second floor of the house is devised especially for the children, and the sunniest room in it is for the baby and the next sunniest for the ex-baby; and we's always had great times and ceremonies when the reigning monarch had to give way for a new king or queen of the nursery and have his or her little belongings packed up and moved on. "Everything has been sacrificed for the good of the children. For ten years we lived at Georgian Court only in the winter, and took the babies every summer up to the quietest and dullest little place in the world in the Catskills, ten miles from anywhere.

If you want to it grow fine and strong and a must give it the right start, and nothing has yet been discovered that takes the place of the food that nature intended for a child.

"Neither Mr. Gould nor myself is an advocate of boarding-schools. We believe that the very best associations that children can have during the foetal years of their lives are home associations, guaranishment, mother to the loving watchfulness of the guardian and mother. There fore we have kept our children right in the home nest, and have had them educated by tutors and governesses. "In educating the children we have tried to develop each one along the line of his or her own natural bent. For instance, Marjorie adores reading, particular poetry and romance. She is a good musician and, as I said, speaks four languages; but she does not care for what you might call the drudgery of study, and I have not afflicted her with it. But Vivian has a profound mind. She loves to study and to delve into deep subjects. "I am very proud of my two big boys. They are clever, and they are strong, manly boys, and best of all, in a mother's eyes, they are good boys. Neither of them has ever caused me a moment's uneasiness or a single heart-pang.

Not that I am a prohibitionist at all, but I am tried especially to keep such things away from them, I have no desire for stimulants. And that, I take it as the best indication of their health and strength, as well as a vindication of my method of raising children, for after all, it's the healthy body that gives a healthy mind and healthy impulses, isn't it?"

SYNTAX CHINA Worcester Woman the Possessor of Famous Collection. Story of How Rowlandshire Drew the Pictures and How Clews Came to Put Them on His Well-Known Dark-Blue Ware. Boston—Among the various kinds of old blue Staffordshire china there is none in greater demand or more in need to find than that bearing the famous picture by Syntax designs. The picture paintings can readily command a fancy price for it is not uncommon for $40 to be paid for some of the plates and from $200 to $300 for some of the platters. Mrs. Emma De Forest Morse of Worcester, Mass., is the fortunate possessor of nearly the subjects, included in this series. It is not only a most remarkable collection, but it is the most means the largest and most complete of the china he made as a specimen of the beautiful dark blue printed ware made between 1820 and 1830 by R. & J. Clews, the well-known English potter. Doctor Syntax's three tours in search of the picturesque, of consolation and of a wife, were created by Rowlandshire, the famous caricaturist, made a series of drawings representing an amateur and schoolmaster in love with fine arts and who traveled during his holidays in quest of the picturesque. The first-named was made in 1810 and taken to Mr. Ackerman, a print seller of the Strand, who, in turn, invited William Combe, a most prolific writer of those days, to furnish a text for the drawings, resulting in the schoolmaster's tour, as it was called on its appearance in the Poetical Magazine. Doctor Syntax instantly sprang into widespread popularity, to the extent that Syntax wigs, Syntax hats and coats soon became the proper thing. Doctor Syntax was next reprinted in book form and after several editions had been exhausted, Combe & Rowlandson together prepared a see. The Harvest Home. and series called "Doctor Syntax's Tour in Search of Consolation." This was in 1820 and the following year came Doctor Syntax's sundiale "tour in search of a wife," which undoubtedly contained some of Rowlandson's best designs. It is said that Combe used to pin up the various sketches against a screen of his apartment in the King's Bench and write his verses as the painter wanted them. He was a most prolific writer and between the years 1773 and 1823 he wrote and edited many books, contributed to a score of journal articles, and published a cording to his own notebook, fully 2,000 columns of matter to the magazines and newspapers. It happened that about the time of the vogue of Doctor Syntax, Clews was making his lustrous, dark-blue ware for the American market and he immediately seized the opportunity to add to his fame by reproducing the Syntax designs with an accuracy that characterized the Clews china. One series began with the doctor's preparations for his tour of the lakes accompanied by his mare Grizzle: At length the lingering moment came That gave the dawn of wealth and fame; Incurulous Ralph, exact at four, Led Grizzle, saddled, to the door, The doctor stood before the gate. The doctor stood before the gate. Behind him was his faithful wife. "One more embrace, my dearest life." Then his gray paffrey he bestrode, and gave a good and good ride, he stood good and good, undoubtedly cried. "Vale! Oh, Vale!" he replied. This story is distinctly portrayed within the limits of a dinner plate, on in the larger scope afforded by a plater. Then follows a list of calamities which befell the fortunate traveler in rapid succession. First he loses his way and then he is stopped by highwaymen and finally bound by them to a tree. Here he remains in durance for a while, until liberated by two buxom matrons, who are seen on their trotting palreys riding to his rescue. Doctor Syntax setting out in search of a wife is the beginning of one set of drawings. Others of much attraction are the garden trio, the harvest home, a noble hunting party. Doctor Syntax with a blue stocking beauty, the Syntax star-gazing and many more. The Syntax dishes are occasionally seen in colors, as in the case of the specimen in the Morse collection, which illustrates "Doctor Syntax's Travels." These are probably of a later period than the Clews china. Must Be So. "Look here, Jane, it seems to me that you're asking me for money all the time." "That's a delusion, John, dear.

Cabell Appointed Interna Revenue Commissioner, Succeeding John G. Capers. Washington.—Royal E. Cabell, for the last three years postmaster at Richmond, Va., has succeeded John G. Capers as commissioner of internal revenue. Capers retires to take up the practice of law. Mr. Cabell is only 32 years old, and is the youngest man ever appointed to the commissioner's chair. He is a graduate of Princeton and was admitted to the bar in 1901. Much importance now attaches to the position Mr. Cabell holds, for under the new tariff law he will be charged with the responsibility of the collection of the corporation tax, in addition to several hundred millions of other revenue. He met Mr. Cabell at the Virginia Hot Springs at a meeting of the State Bar association the summer prior to his nomination for the presidency. They became very good friends, and this friendship has now landed in the lap of Mr. Cabell one of the most desirable plums. Reporters Are But Human. The poor reporter! He is always the scapegoat. And yet a harder or a more devoted worker does not live. Inaccurate he sometimes is. Who in the world is not? To reflect justly in words the most trivial incident is one of the most difficult of human tasks. But consider the vast number of times, after the most arduous effort, the reporter announces the news and presents it clearly and treastingly. The public reads, enjoys, profits—and forgets. It is only when something goes wrong that some one sits up and scolds. $2.40 PER YEAR SPERRY IS RETIRED SPERRY IS RETIRED Rear Admiral Reached the Age Limit of 62 Years. Naval Commander Goes Out of Service Without Having Seen Active Service—Once Chief of Naval War College. Newport, R. I. — Rear Admiral Charles S. Sperry, U. S. N., who was retired the other day, having reached the age limit of 62 years, will be remembered as the commanding officer of the around-the-world voyage of the American navy, from San Francisco to Hampton Roads. Succeeding "Fighting Bob" Evans, who successfully piloted the fleet from Hampton Roads to the Golden Gate, Admiral Sperry had the usual misfortune of those who succeed a public favorite. However, Sperry soon proved that he was an commander as well as a faithful commander. Evans and Sperry both spent the best part of their lives in the service of the United States. Admiral Evans was born in 1846 and entered the navy in 1860. Admiral Sperry was born in Brooklyn in 1847 and entered the naval academy two years after Admiral Evans. Sperry was educated in the public schools of Waterbury, Conn., which has remained his home, so far as a naval officer can have a home. He married Edith Marcy, a daughter of William L Marcy, who was governor of New York state in 1833-39, and later retreat of state under Polk, and secretary of state under Pierce. Admiral Sperry was promoted to ensign in 1868, to master in 1869 and to lieutenant in 1870. He had three students as instructor to the United States Naval academy 1874-81, 1884-84, and 1887-91. He was commissioned lieutenant commander 1885; served on the Chicago of the squadron of evolution, 1891-93, and at the bureau of ordinance in Washington, 1893-95. He became a commander in 1894, and from 1895 to 1898 was at the New York navy yard. His knowledge of COLONIALS KARL KORNELI CASS & SHEPHERD Rear Annual Class & Sperry ordinance was an important factor in preparing the fleets for the Spanish-American war. It was his devotion to this work which prevented him from getting a better war command than that of the Yorktown, which he held from 1898 to 1900. From 1901 to 1903 he commanded the New Orleans. Despite his long career in the naval service, since April, 1868, when he was appointed ensign, Admiral Sperry has never seen active service. At the time of the outbreak of the Spanish-American war, the admiral, then a commander, went to Washington and asked for a ship. He wanted to go to the front. "Any officer can command a ship," said the bureau chief. "You go to Brooklyn and superintend the fitting out of the ships with ordinance. There is no glory about that, but you can make yourself mighty useful." Admiral Sperry went back to Brooklyn, his home town, and there served out the war in the Brooklyn navy yard. By virtue of his residency of the War college, Capt. Sperry was a member of the general board of the navy and he was the naval member of the national coast defense board. In May, 1906, he became a rear admiral, and in June went to Geneva as naval delegate of the United States to revise the convention of 1864, concerning the treatment of sick and wounded in time of war. In 1907 he was again the naval delegate of the United States at the second international peace conference at The Hague. His services to the United States and to humanity at this conference are universally conceded to have been great. At the conclusion of the conference, Admiral Sperry was one of the four rear admirals chosen to take the fleet of 18 battle-ship forces on the world. Admiral Emmanuel Evans in the command at Sea, Francisco in May, 1908, he brought the fleet back to Hampton Roads by the way to China, Japan and the Philippines. When in the Mediterranean his fleet was rushed to the aid of the earthquake sufferers in Calabria, Italy. Admiral Sperry is of slender build, weighing not more than 130 pounds, is sallow of complexion, with black hair slightly gray over the ears, and with piercing black eyes. When not troubled with indigestion, and when work is progressing favorably he is the most genial of gentlemen, replete in anecdote and most companionable. HAVE YOU READ THE APPEAL?

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 2, 1909. LABOR IN THE SOUTH. Speaking of the labor famine which prevails throughout the world, the Washington Post says: "As for the South, she has in some respects the best farm labor in the world. The industrious and contented Negro is a treasure when he follows instructions as to preparation of the ground, tillage, harvest, and garnering of the crop. There is never any difficulty with this fellow down there. His only drawback is prosperity. It is hard for him to endure that. He is the happiest man in the world simply because his wants are few and easily supplied." And the Post might have added: It acts with less sense about its labor than any other section of the world. It fills the world with its lamentations over the worthlessness and shiftless- ness and other bad qualities of the Afro-American; in fact, outdoes Ananias in lying about him. The scarcity of farm labor on the plantations of the South is, in part, due to causes which are very creditable to the Afro-American as the following statement will show: First. Thousands of Afro-Americans are working upon farms of their own, and each of these farms indicates the withdrawal of from three to five laborers from the plantation, since women and children are rated as plantation hands, and in cotton picking, very efficient "hands." scholastic training in ing.

Lumbering, mining and railroad work are drawing thousands of hands from the plantations and leave the old and feeble to till the soil and get nothing for it. Prosperity may be a drawback to the former plantation hand, and so it seems to be to some other people, for instance, Mr. Thaw and Count Boni, and, and ad infinitum. The similarity of the plantation hand in this respect to the Pittsburg millionaire and the New York 400 is so striking that it is very surprising that it has escaped the notice of so acute an observer as the Post. We hope the Post will soon get posted. EDUCATION IN THE SOUTH. Commenting on education in the South, an exchange remarks: "But it is coming to be more generally recognized that the old scholastic training is fitted for only the few, either white or black, and more practical methods are bound to prevail in the future." We conceive the foregoing to be based on an entire misconception of the actual condition of things educational. The statistics of all the public schools of the country show that of the pupils who enter those schools, about twenty per cent fall out every year, so that if 100 pupils enter the first year it will be a grand success if the school can graduate six or eight of them. That does not look as if we were being overloaded with higher education. If the "old scholastic training is fitted for only the few," it certainly is only the few who are getting it, if the government statistics are reliable. But, again, there is a great demand for competent persons in almost every department of business, which cannot be filled. Thousands aspire to positions and fail to secure them, because they have not had the old 1900 [Picture of a man in a suit with a tie]. HON. FRANK H. HITCHCOCK, Postmaster General of the United States. --- scholastic training in the art of spelling. From nearly every state comes an outcry for competent teachers. Thousands of pulpits are filled by preachers, who are failures, because they lack the old scholastic training. We need a great revival of the old scholastic training in the three R's. AN INFAMOUS LAW. Scarcely a day passes that does not bring the news of some new disability imposed upon the Afro-American by the states of the South. Governor Brown of Georgia recently signed an act of the legislature which prohibits the use by Afro-American secret organizations of the insignia, ritualistic work, signs, etc., of secret orders to which whites belong. The law specially applies to the Elks and Knights of Pythias, but it is supposed that it will not affect the Freemasons and Odd Fellows, as the latter two societies stand upon a somewhat different footing on account of their age and the circumstances of their origin. In the case of the societies first mentioned, the law seems bound to give rise to some curious complications. Thus suppose that a man from New York, wearing an Elks' pin, visits Georgia, will he be liable to arrest? Again, any white Freemason can visit an Afro-American lodge of the order and satisfy himself that there is no bug under the chip, no conspiracy against the whites, or any of the other bug-a-boos which so affright the Southern brother. But no white man can visit an Afro-American secret lodge which has no sister lodges among the whites. Then what? The white brother will take advantage of the circumstance to proclaim such lodge a nucleus for treason, stratagem and spoils, as Tom Watson has already done in the case of the Freemasons. The ridiculous gyrations of the Southern Caucasian brother has already made him the laughing stock of the world, but his immense self-conceit renders him impervious to ridicule as well as to common sense. Our Southern brethren do not seem to realize the fact that every move they make to down the Afro-American results in one of two things: either to incite the sufferer to do more for himself or to raise him up friends in the North and even in the South. THE NEW YORK TIMES --- BEAR HUNTING ON STIKINE SALMON AT TELEGRAPH CREEK I hired the only canoe in the place, a small and leaky Si-wash dugout, and engaged two fresh men—one Davey, who had the reputation of knowing the river and was not afraid of bears, and a sunny-faced boy named Dease Lake Tommy; who proved himself an excellent carman. Albert—the man of moose—rather surprised me by wishing to come down too, not as a hunter, since he knew nothing of the Stikine and its bears, but as steersman of the boat, in which capacity he proved himself an adept. Just as we were starting, Mr. Butler, who had been hunting in the Iskoot mountains, turned up with three splendid sheep's heads. He wished a a "lift" for 20 miles down stream to the cabin of a certain Capt. Conover, an old prospector and trapper who lives on this lonely stream and knows all about bears. Mr. Butler had had a good chance at a fine grizzly on the mountains, but alas, he had missed it. and was anxious to retrieve his misfortune. He stayed with Conover three days and then came down stream having seen and missed two grizzlies Shortly after leaving Conover's hut and having passed all the worst of the rapids, we came in sight of a great overflow which is known as McLeod's slough. Just before reaching the slough I noticed a black spot about 600 yards down stream, which proved to be a bear swimming the river. All was excitement in a minute. The bear, a medium-sized one reached the bank at we careened into broken water at the bottom of the rapid. The distance was not more than 50 yards, yet I found it almost impossible to get even a snap-shot, owing to the rolling of the boat. Seeing that we should in a moment shoot past the bear, I let three somewhat hopeless shots in quick succession, each of which struck the sand about three inches below the mark, and had the mortification of observing the bear walk slowly into the heavy bush with complete indifference. Next morning, in most horrible weather, we whizzed down stream to a spot which, if only the sun would shine upon it, might be described as among the most beautiful in the world. Under vast mountains about 50 miles below Telegraph creek a small stream cuts into the shaggy forest. One side is overshadowed by precipitous rocks and the other by a dense forest of great trees. This is called Kloochman's canyon, and the stream that pierces it is a spawning-ground of the humpback salmon, and consequently a favorite resort of bears. We landed about 400 yards above it, when Davey and I at once proceeded to stalk the place. There were no bears there that morning, but an abundance of fresh signs. Three o'clock in the afternoon is the usual hour for bears to start feeding, so Albert, Davey and I again repeated our stalk to the brook month at this hour. The last few yards I went on alone, and at first was much disappointed at seeing nothing but a black dipper diving in the shallows within a few yards. The forest and cliff cast a deep gloom on the little river; it was snowing as usual, and the light was so poor that I had to look a long time at two black marks about 80 yards away in the middle of the stream to determine their nature. Presently, as I watched one of these strange things, it seemed to move, Was I dreaming or had it really moved? Yes, it moved again, and I saw a large black paw suddenly come out of the water and grab at something which it seemed to miss! After gazing intently I saw that the other black mark was the head of a large black bear with cocked ears. The bear was fishing, and had made three There is an old story long current in his home city, Brooklyn, about the late Dr. Theodore L. Cuyler, which illustrates how a son is to his mother the most important being in the world. In Dr. Cuyler's case, one could not justly question his ability and usefulness. Besides being a successful pastor, he was the author of many religious books which were read here and abroad, as well as a frequent contributor to certain magazines. When he was in England, he and his mother corresponded regularly, and at great length, so the tradition goes. One day a letter came in which he described his presentation to Queen Victoria. Mrs. Cuyler read it with eagerness, hardly able to wait till she had finished before telling some one what had happened. When she at last got through the letter, she hastened to a neighbor's house and announced: "Ive just got a letter from England, and I see you," he said, seen Theodore-"s the Youngs' companion. SINGAPORE unsuccessful shots at salmon as they swam past him. On the second occasion I think he touched the fish in his grab, for I distinctly saw him open his mouth and show his white teeth in anticipation of seizing the expected prize. I would not have disturbed him for the world, as I wanted to see the whole business of bear-fishing; but I must have moved my rifle up into a shooting position somewhat clumsily, or he heard one of the Indians stirring behind me, for, with two great plunges backward, he was out of the river in a trice and shuffling along the cliff-banks into some short bushes. He appeared to be the largest black bear I had seen, and his coat "waved" as he ran. I was most careful with my first shot, but the beast "skidded" sideways on some wet alders just as he entered the bushes and my shot was a clean miss. I then saw that if he continued in his present line he must emerge and cross about 15 yards of open mud under the cliff, so that during the time he was scrambling through the bushes I took two steps down the bank and obtained my favorite shooting position, slitting with my back to a log. I was quite ready for the bear immediately he cleared the bushes at a shuffling run, and covering him with the white sight I let go. The big fellow stumbled forward about 50 yards, and then rolled over on his side uttering two or three babylike whines, which can only be described as pitiful. I now ran up the stream, and crossed where there was a fallen tree, soon reaching the bear, which was quite dead. He proved to be a splendid old male measuring five feet six inches, and would have, I should guess, weighed at least 500 pounds. So we had a great rejoicing and I had obtained a grand specimen of this beautiful animal. We had a terrible business getting the bear from the stream to the rivet. I wanted to take him to camp complete so that we could skin, draw and measure in comfort, and it was only after cutting a pole and slinging him on it that the entire staff succeeded in conveying the huge carcass yard by yard across the sand banks to the river, where our canoe was in waiting. The Indians soon made an immense fire and after a generous supper we all set to work on our several tasks and the relation of bear stories both grewsome and humorous. The following day was a continuous snowstorm, so I declined to move and made the Indians finish the scraping of the bear's skin—no little task. In the northwest you do not kill many things, but when you do get a good specimen of one of the great northern beasts it is something to be proud of. Every occasion on which the hunter is successful is a red-letter day forever afterwards and indelibly stamped on the memory. So far I had been successful in obtaining all the large American mammals, except the grizzly bear, and that is a beast of such elusive character that no man can say when and where his chance will occur. Baron Von Plessen, an enthusiastic Danish hunter, told a friend of mine that it cost him over $10,000 before he saw one, and then—he missed it. But he killed two afterwards. Every hunter that ever set foot in the Rockies or the northwest thinks he is going to see grizzly round the first corner, while a few hope to goodness the bear will not see them. I. G. MULAIS It is two German women who are speaking, in the presence of an Irish woman. "Th' tap o' th' marnin' t' tue Mis' Brettschneider. 'Tis glad I am t' see th' likes av ye. Iss yer daughter Gretchen goin' to th' Hill th' morrow? "Faith an' she is. Ven me bye Heinrich can get th' bay haarse away from th' plowin' I tink I'll go mesi'f, bedad." This is not travesty; it is a report of German dialect. The manner of speech came about naturally enough. When the Germans arrived here in full force the country was already settled, largely by Yankees and Irish; and the German had to buy his farm here or there. Thus a number of them found themselves located in the town of Erin, where, of course, they learned the language of their country. And I leave it to my fellow citizens in Wisconsin whether a German cannot speak as broad and rich a brogue as any son of Erin.—Charles D. Stewart in Atlantic. ```markdown ``` An unscottarian Christian Institution, devoted especially to advanced education, offers English and English High School courses with industrial Training.

In Should Drink TWENTIETH CENTURY WITCH ITALIAN SORCERESS WHO HAS SUR- PRISED HUMANITY—MAY BE INVENTION. Women Seek Powerful Love Potions to Win Back Affections of Lost Lovers or Fatal Drafts for Faithless Husbands. Is it possible that witches still exist and find credulous victims to cozen and fleece? It is true that the voodoo woman may be found in the South, and the medicine man is not yet extinct among the Indian tribes, yet they are believed to be survivals only possible among the uncivilized of the negro and Indian people. Yet the real witch with the caldron in which she brews her magic philters, with her spells and curses, are things so wholly of the past that it is a shock to read of a sorceress having been arrested in fair Perugia. Perhaps the account is the invention of a newspaper reporter bound to produce a sensation for the benefit of his journal. However that may be, the story is a good one. It sets forth, with a due care for details, the maze of alleys in a suburb of the city, where a house whose doors are closed to all but women who seek powerful love potions to bring back the affections of lost lovers or fatal drafts that shall properly serve faithless husbands, shelters a famous sorceress. Rumore having got about concerning the unholy rites and ceremonies practiced in that house, the police, so the story goes, gain admittance through a pretext, seize the witch and search the premises, and find its walls hung with mysterious symbols, human skulls and bones, heads of various animals, strange weapons, many books of evil import, full of incantations and spells and other aids such as witches are supposed to use. The woman, who was old and supposed to be fabulously wealthy, was seized and all her paraphernalia collected and conveyer away for trial, and all Perugia, and presumably Italy, is supposed to be in a state of suspense until the worst is known. Supposing this tale true, what would be an adequate punishment, for a witch? In the good old times, so much lamented, there would have been but one end possible. The witch would have been burned at the stake. But in 1969 a term of imprisonment is probably the worst that could happen; and that would be a flat ending to the story. But the days of what, is called romance are over. Where Apple Brandy Jo M Where Apple Brandy Is Made. "Apple brandy," said T. J. Batman, "is one of the most peculiar drinks. It is made in but a few sections of this country, and Meade county, Ky., produces as much usually as any other section, with the possible exception of California. Most of the brandy for this locality came from there this year, but the apples had to be shipped from New York. The production is about one gallon to each three bushels of apples. "It may strike you as strange that the same quantity of apples will not produce the same quantity of brandy each year. Some year the apples are deficient in sugar, and the amount of sugar determines the quantity and quality of the brandy. A distiller may have an especially fine crop of brandy one year, while the following year the same distiller will get an inferior crop of brandy from the same orchard." Mightier Than the Himalayas. In describing his latest journey in Tibet, ended during the present year, Dr. Sven Hedin says that the greatest result achieved is the discovery of a continuous mountain chain 2,000 miles long, stretching east and west, and which, taken as a whoit, is the most massive range on the crust of the earth. Its average height above sealevel is greater than that of the Himalayas, and although its peaks are from 4,000 to 5,000 feet lower than Mount Eeverest, its passes average 3,000 feet higher than those of the Himalayas. The eastern and western parts of this range were known before, but the central and highest part, in Bonga, was unexplored previous to Doctor Hedin's visit. He crossed ten passes in the range. Bruin Too Fond of Crow A new version of "eating crow" has been furnished in Center county, Pennsylvania. One evening recently a farmer of Curtin township set a bear trap near his home, balting it with a piece of meat, as is customary. After the trap had been set a crow, tempted by the meat, was caught and that night a bear happened that way and ate the crow and the bait. The farmer set the trap again next evening, and on the following morning the bear was in the trap, having come back during the night for another meal of crow. Metamorphosis. Fred Stone, the singing comedian of the "Red Mill," and Eugene Wood, whose stories and essays are well and pleasantly known to all the readers of Everybody's, met on Broadway recently. They stopped for a moment to exchange a few cheerful views, when a woman in a particularly noticeable sheath gown passed. Simultaneously, Wood turned to Stone; Stone turned to Wood; then both, turned to rubber. One Honest Paris Cabhy. Benjamin Liboeuf—his name deserves to be recorded—is a credit to the "cochers" of Paris, whose honesty he has vindicated. Having found a bundle of securities, worth some £16,000, in his cab, left there by an oblivious passenger, he carried the package to the prefecture of police, and simply left his number. Two days later he received a sum of £80, in two banknotes, from the owner, who was on his side, happy to have recovered his lost property. Lamm Paul THE WEEKLY PRESS TEL. N. W.
