OIHccrs of the cruiser Olynipia, sta

Ittraeled ono night In February by
itrange lights in the sky. They stud-

New York, which was on the Pacific
tide of the isthmus, forty-seven miles

jarrled on between the ships. Such nn
ccurrence, In which mini uses the

Pencil, is a poem ready made.

A generation ago the sword cane
was more fashionable than it is to-day.
Due of the reasons for tho oliango is
tho existence of laws against carrying
concealed weapons. If the government
can bring It about, tho fashion in Co
lombla will follow tliat of tho United
States, for the new Colombian tariff
law prohibits tho Importation of
"canes," umbrellas, and so forth, which
contain swords, daggers or apparatus
with which a person could bo wounded
or hurt." There Is no law regulating
tiio modo of carrying umbrellas, hi

that the road to distinction is open to
any capable young man to a dogreo

i tries. On tho otlier hand, wo fall to
ieo how It Is possible to deny that pret
ty well-marked classes actually exist
In tho cities, at least. Very rich peo

"I am not much .n oratory," re
marked a bustling Congressman to a
friend, "but no one can beat me in
getting tilings ttv my district. I have
had more public buildings authorized
where they .vere not absolutely need
ed than almost anybody else, I have
secured . lot of places for my con
stituents. A good chunk of river and
harbor money always comes my way.
I even nailed down a contract for a
man in my district when he was nol
the lowest bidder In a competition for
government supplies. The people of
the old second district: cannot say that
I haven't represented It well." Such
a boast raises-the question, How far'
should a Representative go In "getting
things" for his district, or a .Senator in
ooking after the Interests of ills
State? There is often an apparent
ouliict of interest between the "gen-,
mi welfare" on one side, and the par
ticular desires of a district or State
on 1 lie other. The President and Ills
Cabinet, In their conduct of executive'
business, represent the whole people.
.Members of both houses of Congress
represent smaller units. They natur
ally incline to see bow much they can,
secure from the national government
for their respective! States and dis
tricts. Within certain limits this Is
their duty, since they know best the
needs of the part of the country they
represent. Rut the conllict of interests
of the whole and of Its parts is not so
real as it seems. Tho Representative
who obtains appropriations for need
less things In bis own district must
support others In their efforts to se
cure like favors, and so, in the end, his
own district pays for about what it
gets. Tho aphorism In the Inaugural
address of President Hayes, that ho
nerves ills party best who serves his
country best, might bo paraphrased so
as to read, "lie who serves tho nation
best serves Ills district best."
The plea for "the married woman In
business" made recently by Mrs.
Catharine Waugli MeCulloeh before"
the Chicago Woman's Club conference1
on "Women In Modern Industrialism"
calls public attention to conditions
that are recognized as deplorable, and
that arouse the widest sympathy. Our
industrialism Is cruel and heartless. It
takes little account of the home and
of the obligation of society to protect it
from disruption, it is concerned only
In the law of supply and demand as
It affects productive ntorprlse, and it
seldom stops to heed the voice of tho
humanitarian. Industrialism dlscrim
lnates against women who are striving
to fullll the obligations both of father
in.d mother because u woman burdn
ed with the cares of a home cannot
do the work as well as one who Is free.
Industrialism takes no account of tho
fact that she has an Invalid husband
or a worthless husband and Is com
pelled to earn money to support hcrsclP
and children. And yet thousands of
women are making this pathetic strug
gle against this spirit of depreciation
and dlscrmlnation which pervades all
modern Industrialism. When tho
woman Is striving to do the work of
two, Inside and outside the homo,
"ought not the stato to step in and
support the children?" asked Mrs.
MeCulloeh. While thoughtful persons
are seriously pondering this question,
shuddering perhaps at Its suggestion
of "socialism" or "paternalism," the
public sense of fairness and of rever
ence for motherhood and womanhood
should bo quickened to a point whore
it will not tolerate dlscrmlnation
against married women who aro com
pelled by a cruel fate to bitttlo for o.t
Istence In any of the Industries or pro
fessions. An enlightened ago, which
boasts of its progress in applying tho
humanizing intluences and refilling
agencies of Christianity, should mako
smooth the pathway of the mother
w ho must toll. Society could not con.
secrate Itself to a higher or a nobler
task than that of lightening her nv
dens and securing for her fair treat
ment In those lines of industrial on
deavor In which she Is compelled to
engage.

Uoe the Harrow on Corn.
Many farmers read with surprls
tho statement that a harrow can bo
run across young corn without dam
ago to tho crop. Try it and see. It Is
better to use tho iron-toothed harrow
with toetli slonting backward at an
angle of -15 degrees. It is remarkable
how much work a three-section harrow
will do in a cornlleld in one day dm'
Ing tho early spring season, narrow
corn Just as it comes through tho
ground. Harrow crosswise again with
in a week. In some cases It Is neces
sary to weight tho harrow. A seventy
five or ninety-tooth harrow will cover
fifteen acres of corn with a slow team
and twenty acres If the team is a quick
stepper. If doubtful about the use ot
the harrow on your particular corn
crop, take It out and run It for twenty
llvo feet and test the work done by
pulling at every stalk passed over to
find whether or not tho roots still hold.
Harrowing will lay the crop down for
a day or two, but it soon straightens.
Harrowing kills weeds and destroys
young grass, leus tno air into uio
ground and Is. the best possible method
of cultivating young corn until the
crop reaches eight or ten inches in
height. Use the harrow on corn.
Farm Labor In Demand.
It Is estimated that in seven Statoi

this summer to harvest tho wheal
crop, urops aro increasing taster tnan
labor to secure them can be had, and
tliis. too, in the face of tho fact that
nearly 1,000,000 Immigrants a year are

lege students were attracted to the
west by the offer of $2.o0 a day and
board and lodging, but so many fell

TURN OVER TIME.
When Nature Hints About the Vood,
When there's no lellsh to any food
and all that one eats doesn't seem tc
lo any good, then is tho time to make
a turn over in the diet, for that's Na
ture's way of dropping a hint that tlu
food isn't the kind required.
"For a number of years 1 followed
railroad work, much of It being otllcfl
work of a trying nature. Meal time
were our busiest, and eating too inucU
i nil too quickly of food such as is
commonly served in hotels and restau

tary habits were not long In giving
me dyspepsia and stomach troubl
which reduced my weight from 205 td

"Thero was little relish in any food
and none of it seemed to do me anj

poorer I got and was always huugrj
before another meal, uo matter hovt
much I had eaten.
"Then I commenced a fair trial ol
Irape-Nuts and was surprised how i
