Something
like 400 years ago o
woman In Ens : and, known M Mother
Shlpton," thrilled the world with a
terles of strong-) and remarkable
prophecies. Many of these wieiM
forecasts of future ovents have,
strange y enough, come to fulfill-
incut right here fit tfio United
States In very recent years.
Her propinclcs were all made In
rhyme. (
Do you supposo she had the mod-
crn-day airplane in mind four ccnlu-

in her thought as sl expressed this vsed tho took solcmn'leave
coining cvuiiu.
"Water and f.re shall wonders do;
Now strange, yet shall bo true.
Tho excavation of the ruins of
Pompeii and other ancient cities
long burled beneath volcanic ashes,
was foretold thusly:
"Homes shall appear In the vales
below,
That for years were covered with
soil and snow;
Cities be found- that for years were
lost,
And be disinterred nt it nation'"
cost."
It was not so ninny years ago that
the wooden vessels sailing the oceans
of the world were superseded by iron
r.na Eteei boats botn as bftttleshlpa
nnd pabsctirer craft. Mother ShiD
ton glimpsed this marvelous change
In water transportation away hack in
hcr time when fihe said:
"Iron in the water shall float
As easy a9 a wooden boat."
1 wonder If It was tho immortal
bard, William Shakespeare, the lady
of tho future wn. thinking of In thli
brief verse:
"A great, man shall come,
Whoso works shall live to the end of
doom."
tains In nil sections of the world fori,kn?w ,stno cst funrnntee of seed
tne nassairo of ra lwaVK. Is midn snf.
ficient answer to this puzzling pre
diction: "Through hills men shall -ride,
And no horse or 038 be by their side."
One of Madam Shipton's choipest
premonitions was that fn which the
millions of :utomohilcs of today wer
foretold In these amazingly truthful
lines:
"Carriages without horses shnll go,
Aftd accidents fill tho world with
1 woe."
The invention of tho submarine,
the' tunnels beneath rivers, and the
diving apparatus, have followed cen
turies fn the wake of this pootical
announcement:
"Under wntor men shall walk
Shall ride, shnll sleep, shall talk."
Who Issuunce or the proclamation
ofT emancipation by President Abra
ham Lincoln, wan preceded hundreds
of years with the following prophecy
from tho lips of the Shlpton Jady:
"hot oyer n ,Ild and stormy sea,
Arace shall gain their liberty,"
Visions of Ueorge Oushlngton, Hen
jamlit Franklin, Valley Forge, Mon
month, Princeton, Yovktown, the
crrisslng of tho Delaware amid cakes
of 'flouting Ice, and many othot his
torical scenes of tho Revolutionary
wai" wUl instantly bo visualized bv
the reader with, this early hint of
A.morlcit'.M independence:
"Avdlstailt land in the west countree
Shnll fight for and gain hcr liberty."
The present world wide agitation
for n reduction, of taxea and tho linn
Station of armament was vaguely
hntcd by Mother Shlpton, thuswlst-:
t "foxes for blood and war
ritfjhall como to every door."
Persons who havo read DarWin's
work on the Origin of the Human,
Kaco will eagerly Jend this eilusion
by the lady with tho century-plerc-Ing
eyes; .
"An ape shall appear In a leap year,
That shall, put the human race In
far;
And Adam's origin In dispute,
He brought V) those of great repute."
The reading of English and Ger
man royal weddings of by-gono yearn
may be a trifle more Interesting fol-Towing-
a knowledgo of Mother Ship
ton's "I told you so."
"Tho llritlsh olive shull entwine,
In marriage with the German vine."
It required, nine lines for Mother
Shlpton to depict somo of the fu
ttmrwoca and worries of France:
"Three tiines three shall lovely
France,
He led to dunce a bloody dance;
Jloforo her people shall 'be free,
Three tyrant rulers shall she see.
Three times three the people's hop
Is gone.
Three rulers in tucccsston see,
Euch spring frOm different dynasty.
Then shall the worses fight bo done:
England and Franco shall lie as one."
Hut alas,-and alack, old Mother
Shlpton mado just one prophecy too

Thin was her ono hnd het. The
year 1881 has had its inning 4Q years
hnd without making any perceptible
dent in the crust of the world. ThU

Seed, Weeds nnd Germination
This is tho season of the great nai
tfoniil game of looking through the
illustrated need catalogs for the com

mind several fundamental points,
says the Agricultural College.
First, is this seed true to name? In
many instances, one variety can not
be told by tho seed from another sim
ilar variety. In other cases seed
samples will tell the variety. Buy

Third, how many and what kinds
of weed seedi, does it contain? It is
a lot easier to keep out noxious
weeds than to eradicate them, onco
they aro established. Did you everi
try to got rid of a patch of Canadian
thistles, small flowered morning glo
ries, or alfalfa dodder? The sood an-'

By ISAAC McBRIDE
tT HAS BERN inserted by runny
1 travelers In llusslu before and hfter
the war that the Russian peasant Is n
peculiar combination of cruelty and
kindness. There Is n great deal of
truth in this statement, but the bare
charge of cruelty Itself, without any
elucidation, Is unfair. ,
The Russian peasant for centuries
had suffered from n feudal system of
land tenure which held hint In abject
slavery and oppression, lie was not
only condemned from childhood to tho
most poverty stricken existence,'' hut
nctually lived In fear of bis IKc.
The llusslan pendants under the
Romanoffs and for centuries before
were the victims of the most bureau
cratic K.vhtem that history affords any
knowledgo of, not excepting Itoman
slavery.
They were treated by the great land
owners like cattle. Their mission In
life was t work from Biinrlm to sun
fet and nsk no questions. Never given
any voice In the political life of the
country, denied even the right to learn
to read and write, their life wns truly
life In the deptfts.
With their emancipation as serfs In
J SGI, which wns nccorded ns n mutter
of defense against them by their mas
ters, the peasants hnd great hopes (if
enjoying life to Its full.
They soon learned, however, that
giving them land carried with It so
many burdens In the J."onn of taxation,
that far from Improving their econom
ic nnd political condition, they were
or all practical purposes still serf".
Tt ke Lands by Force.
The peasants of ltussln hnve al
ways lived in hopes of enjoying In
dividual ownership of land. This had
been their dream and when the rev
olution cnme, nil their pent up fury
was released nnd they reached out
and took the land by force.
They brooked no opposition from the
nobles and when resisted they showed
their fangs and burned many of the
manors'of tho nobles. -T nie, thtVviu
cruelty, but It whs the result of cen
turies of cruelty on the other side.
Whatever faults they may have, the
Russian peasants nre Innately hospit
able; especially Is this quality most
pronounced In their native villages.
Their kindness Is spontaneous, where
as their cruelty, wherever It shows
itself, results from long meditation
over real or Imaginary wrongs.
They will not see another suffer
needlessly If they can prevent It. No
stranger over knocks nt the room of a
peasant hut In a Itusshin village with
out being nsked if be Is hungry nnd
desires food before miy other questions
nre put to lilni. It makes no differ
ence what their own poverty may lie;
they aiv .always ready to slmre their
meager fare. They will willingly go
miles out of their way to direct nn
absolute stranger to n given place and
When offered compensation nre highly
embarrassed.
Show Keen Rivalry. t
If a traveler Is held up over Tilght
and cannot proceed until morning, the
villagers all vie with each other for
the privilege of offering whatever com
fort can be given, and Instead of be
ing asked to pay for a night's lodg
ing, he will be given a package of food
upon departing with the blessing of all
assembled to see him off.
Tills spirit of kliulllnusR Is not only
to be observed among the men and
women of the village, but Is also trim
of the children. The tales of self
sacrifice that have come out of the
Volgn v I ley since the dreadful famine
overtook these unfortunate people are
numberless.
It Is reported that the American Re
lief Commlsslun Is fludlng It extreme
ly trying to live tip to a selective plan
of feeding, where practically all tho
Inhabitants are In dire need of food.
By requiring the children to oat
thiir inenl.s In the relief kitchens, the
workers insure against the delivery of
food to persons who have not been
passed upon by exnmlulng physicians.
Hut the children make many pathetic
attempts to dodge the regulations.
Storlet Tug Heart Strlnat.
One little girl In the kitchen ate only
part of her bowl of rice, milk null
sugar and nsked permission to take
the remainder homo to her father who
was 111 with typhus.
"It Is really more than I care for,,"
she said. "I am not ummI to having so
much at once."
In families where one child Is recom
mended for f wiling by tlu doctors
While brothers and .sisters iue not
given food curK It Is not unusiml for
the fortunate one to take the others
along to the kitchen and curry out to
them n portion of the ration. The self
ncrlllclug pplrlt of the little boys and
girls makes It doubly hard fur the
ri'lUf workers, hi view of the fact
thnt there Is not miMelent food forth
coming, ns yet. for nil.

OF NAM ViND
Writer Penies Lenin Any Elc
ITtent of Greatness.
Tragedy In HI Early Life Largely In
fluenced the Actlona of Sinister
Russian Revolutionist.
Lenin, that extraordinary Husalnn, Is
well enough known to the world ns
politician nnd lender, but little known
as a personality. W. H. F Bnsevl, In
the Foruin, discloses some Interest
ing facts regarding the educational nnd
moral Influences that early shaped the
character of this sinister revolutionary
nnd that went toward the making of
the man who has turned the tremen
dous tide of a vast empire.
"Until 1017," writes Mr. Bnsevl, "he
was merely one of a host of dis
gruntled exiles, wanderers In foreign
lands, who lived from hand to mouth
by free-lance Journalism, or picked up
n precarious livelihood as tourists'
guides cr by lecturing and teaching
Russian, assisted at Infrequent and un
certain Intervals by remittances from
reluctant relatives, nnd loans from
friends. Driven by poverty aa well ns
by conviction to Join the underworld
nf revolutionary Intriguers, and to Join
In plots against t.':e government wher
ever they might be, they wore nlways
under surveillance by the police, and
were compelled to chnngc their names
as frequently as their homes In order
to cvudc. pursuit and gain a little res
pite." And continuing, Mr. ISn&evI says
, "Vladimir Ilyltch UllunolT, whose
noin de guerre Is Lculn, 1b the son of
a member of the lower order 'of th
hereditary nobility. The father appar
ently had revolutionary theories which
Lenin and his elder brother put Into
practice. The two boys were educated
nt the Knzan university, and here oc
curred n tragedy which was probably
the turning point In Lcnlnts career. Ills
elder brother was executed for com
plicity In n plot to assassinate the czar,
Alexander III. It Is not dlilicult to un
derstand the effect of this distressing
event upon an emotional and courage
ous youth, already convinced thnt nb
snlutlsm was the cause of all the trou
bles In his unhappy country, in his
eyes, his brother wns a mnrtyr, nnd he
himself wns ready for the same fate.
But martyrdoiu,was not his fnte. if
that Is yef to eome, If he Is to meet
his death by assassination, which Is
so frequently the end of revolutionar
ies, It will come by a strunge Irony, not
lii the cause of liberty, but for exer
cising a despotic tyranny unknown in
all the history of the,,cznrs. Lenin wns
expelled from the Knzan university for
participating In n political demonstra
tion. He studied law at the Univer
sity of Petrograd, and In later years
was exiled to Siberia for his connec
tion with revolutionaries In Switzer
land. Much of his life was spent
abroad, and he married a woman who
had been exiled for voicing extreme
opinions. . . .
"What Robespierre was to Qamelln
Hvarlste, Karl Marx and Engels are to
Lenin. From his own writings it is
evident that he Is a man with it nnrrow
hiit acute Intellect, nnd possesses the
purely deductive type of mind. Ills
tendency Is to discard all complex and
confusing facta, nnd for the sake of
clearness and simplicity to consider life
and nie.n ns abstractions. . . .
" "To Lenin, Marx nnd Engels are the
prophets of a new religion, and Das
Kapltat a holy Koran, every word In
spired. To criticize It Is blasphemy;
to differ from It the most damnable
of heresies It Is the first word nnd
the last, the Alpha and Omega, the be
ginning and the end of economic doc
trine. The entire domination which
these works exercise over his In
tellectual faculties Is evident through
out his writings. To confute nn ad
versary he quotes a text auj feels the
matter Is settled."
Maxim Gorky.
"Maxim Gorky," who was reported
to be on his way to England on a
visit to II. Q. Wells, but Is still held
up by the Bolshevist authorities on
the frontier, is Alexel Pyeshkof, the
poet uud chronicler of the pariahs
and vagabonds of Russian society,
says Living Age.
"Gorky" means "bitter." The full
name, "Maxim Gorky," tuny, perhaps,
be read to mean "the bitterest of the
Bitter." The pseudonym effectively
symbolizes Pyeshkof's attitude toward
life, for his fiction Is the distilled es
sence of the disappointed.
lie was not at first a Bolshevik,
and he seems only to havo Joined the
Bolshevist ranks under pressure.
Given his choice between low diet
and high office, be preferred the lat
ter, which Is one, happily, that does
not require him to take active part
lu the perpetration of atrocities.

Fires In the United States In live
