I ? there Is one lesson more than an other that Americans , and especially American women , need to learn , and at x > nce , It is to make haste- slowly , says the Housekeeper. Hurry is the most destructive of our national habits. It is tlu chief cause of our national disease , ner vous prostration , and one of the prin cipal allies of the undertaker. Hurry nd worry always go together. In differentiating betwean haste and hurry a noted alienist cites the hu morous quick-lunch restaurants which have sprung up during the last dec ade in all American cities. The sign itself , "quick-lunch" or "a meal iu 'a minute , " is enough to set one to hur rying. The sight of the spry waiter- rushing about , apparently half fran tic from having twice as much to do as they should , the rattling of the dishes , the spectacle of 'his ueighhoi bolting his food without sufficient chewing , the very element of hurry that seems to be in the atmosphere about one , all have their effect upon .the impressionable patron of the mod ern lightning-express restaurant. The consequence is imperfect mastication , dyspc-psia and nervous prostration. Hurry destroys thoroughness. The person who hurries cannot have his heart in his work. Thinking constant ly of what is to be done next , the task of the present is slighted by bor rowing 'unnecessarily from the future Paradoxical as it 'may sound , hurry is the subterfuge of the lazy. A man or woman who is lazy at heart often hurries to make pretense of working and detract attention from real idle ness. Little time is required to c-o"in pute the results achieved .by the per son who bustles breathlessly about with nerves unstruig and putting ev ery one within hearing in the same condition. Hurry and haste are not synonymous , A pulling , blo.wing. whistling fug hurries : an ocean stoam- sliip makes haste. A little less steam at the whistle and a little more at the piston rod would add immensely to the national health without spoiling the speed oi' our progress. | Few New Things | < < From the inventors. | We sometimes believe that there has been an absolutely new thiiu ? brought out in tlie way of invention , and yet somebody comes along with an old document aud upsets it. Only a short time ago it was shown that wireless telegranhy was over thirty years old , aud that Mr. Loomis was trying to interest people in it. For a half dozen years experiments have been made with submarine boats. There has been a deal of talk about them first and last. Factions for and against them have been formed in the navy , and you can find everything from praise to the worst condemnation of them iu the official records. More than this , there have been scandals about them. Congressional investigations , with va rious persons named. During all this time we have been treating the sub marine boat as something new and belonging to latter day invention. But in the last volume of the naval records of the civil war is a picture of a sub marine boat , invented by a Confeder ate naval officer. The picture taken from one in the museum at Richmond. Va. . looks very like the craft over which there lias been so much dispute for a few years past. The submarine boat of forty years ago was invented by II. L. Hen ley , and was to be used as a torpedo boat to attack the blockading vessels of the United States. Henley had con fidence in it. for a brief account is given of his attempt to pass under some ships , when he failed and he and seven men were lost. * 'AVe could not attempt a rescue of them , " says the account , "for they went down in nine fathoms of water. " It is record ed that "bubbles appeared" which marked the place where they went down. Washington Post. Length of the College Course. A number of eminent educators have been recently advocating the shorten ing of the college course. President Eliot of Harvard , believes that the period might well be reduced from four years to three , and President Hadley of Yale , agrees with this view. Some would even cut the period down to two years for a certain class of students and certain degrees. Presi dent Tucker of Dartmouth , whosea commanding place as a scholar everyone - a one concedes , stands by the four-year course. The point is one of which equally sincere , and thoughtful men f may honestly differ. On the face of it , it would seem that with the vast increase in the circle of human knowledge U \ \ edge in modern times , the great and n important additions which modern in nCi vestigation and research have made Cin to almost every branch of learning , a lengthening of the period of collegi d ate study rather than otherwise is a made necessary for all who would gain k what in older times would have been < egarded as a , high standard of scholar ktl ship. Is there not a danger that we tl tltl shall infuse a spirit of haste and super tlni ficiality into our schemes of education ni and thus miss that finer results of si true culture which se comes only of earn est application and deep and quiet fi a thinking ?

The Truth Aljout Coffee. It must be regarded as a convincing test when a family of seven has used Postum for five years , regaining health ami keeping healthy and strong on this food drink. This family lives in Millvillej Mass. , and the lady of the household says : "For , eight years my stomach troubled me all' the time. I ivas very nervous and irri table and no medicine helped me. "I had about given up hope until five years ago next month I read an' article about Postum Cereal Coffee that con vinced me that coffee was the cause of all my troubles. I made the Postum carefully and liked it so much 1 drank it preference tg coffee but without much faith ; that it would help me. "At the end of a month , however , I was surprised to find such a change in my condition. I was stronger in every way , less nervous and at the end of six months I had recovered my strength so completely that I was able to do all of my : own housework. Because of the good Postum did us I knew that what you claimed for Grape-Nuts must be true and we have all used that lelicious food ever since it first appeared on the mar ket. ket."We "We hare seven in our family and I the work for them all and I am sure that I owe my strength and health to the steady use of your fine cereal food and Postum ( in place of coffee ) . I have such great faith in Postum that I have sent it to my relatives and I never lose chance to speak well of it.

One of the most Interesting features of Jamaican life Is the manner in which the large fruit and nut planta tions are conducted so as to yield a profit to their proprietors. This Is in some instances a difficult result to ob tain , says a writer In the New York Post , particularly in the case of the banana. The banana plant takes about a year to mature and bears only one bunch , and that is the end of it , but almost immediately a sucker comes up at the root to take its place. However , after two or three years , according to the richness of the soil , the old roots are dug out and the "banana walk" is re planted with fresh suckers , as after a time the plants from the old roots will not produce what is called a "bunch , " which contains nine "hands. " All below nine hands are called v'stems. " A stem with eight hands counts as three-fourths of a bunch , one with seven one-half and one with six one-fourth. If by chance a stem con tains more than nine hands it is recog ' nized as a "bunch. " Each one is checked up as it passes along the dock to the ship on the top of a black wom an's head and the "checkers up' ' be come veiy skillful , being able to 'toll at a glance just how many hands each stem contains. The planters try to make their plan tations produce the most fruit at the time of year when it will bring the best price , and this is from March through the summer , as it is easier to handle in the United Slates during warm weather and is in much greater demand. This can be done by prun ing , letting only the right-sized suckers remain to take the place of the plant which has borne. . Aside from banana cultivation a go'-d deal attention is paid to the cocoa- nut. This consists more in marketing the product than anything else , as aft er the peed has been planted little cul tivation is necessary , except to keep the grass down , and this is often ac complished by cattle after the tree has -become a few years old. It takes nc ; > r ly seven years before it will produce nuts in any quantity , but after this time -it blooms every month in the year. A liealthy cocoanut tree is never without fruit in different stages of ripening. The -chocolate tree bears its fruit in a most peculiar way , putting out its 'bloom ' directly from the main trunk and the principal branches , thus form ing an oblong pod resembling a canta loupe somewhat , and containing seeds a little thicker than a lima bean. These seeds are taken from the pods and passed through a. simple process of fermentation and then dried. The tree bears fruit in about four years , and with little care will produce for many years. FtFTY MILLIONS EVERY YEAR. Wealth Produced by the Territory oi Arizona. "The average Eastern man does not .appreciate the possibilities of Arizona jin a mining way , aud while it is true [ the territory has received a great deal 'of advertising in the effort for state- 'hood , much of it has been undesirable inasmuch as it came from men who were biased in their opinions , " jsald R. T. Theme , of Prescott. to a Wash ington Star man. "A slight investiga tion of the mining statistics of the territory , not oven taking into account the lumber , cattle and agricultural in terests , will show that the territory produces nearly 50,000,000 in new wealth each year. "Arizona has a black eye amoug a certain class of investors , for we have not escaped the wildcat promoters of the East who were advertising many get-rich schemes at the expense of the territory. But where legitimate min ing enterprises have been taken up and pushed I make the statement without fear of successful contradic tion that the returns have been greater than in any other Hue of business. A trip through the mining districts would convince the business man that legitimate mining is the rule instead ! of the exception. Not before in the 'history of the territory has so much .money been judiciously expended In the exploration and development of its mines. "The most surprising thing now is the fact'that Arizoua is becoming rec ognized as a gold-producing country. The reputation of Arizona was made as a silver-producing country , and when the great silver slump came the ( miners turned their attention to pros pecting for gold and have met with success. The prominence Arizona has attained in the mining world is due entirely to the hustling business men who have been at the head of the in dustry. "Arizona offers unlimited possibili ties from an agricultural standpoint , and when irrigation is established by the government the possibilities will be unlimited. In the little land that has been cultivated around Prescott orange's , grapes and all kinds of tropi cal fruits and vegetables are raised. The soil is so fertile that when It does rain you can see vegetation literally jump out of the ground. The average temperature is about 50 In the 'winter and about 70 in the summer. Arizona will yet be a State of which the.peo ple of the United States will ever be proud. " Unsuccessful Experiment. Tommy What are you 'crying about ?

CHANGE-OF LIFE , Some sensible advice to women passing through this trying period.
