There is no cure for conditions of de
pression in either organized labor or
organized capital. Both depend on the
markets and neither the one nor the
other can command them. The real
remedy for hard times , the enforced
remedy for redundant labor , is in a
reversal of the townward tide of pop
ulation. As a last resort men must dig
to live , and they must go back to the
land to dig. The reviving movement
for the occupation of the public lands
In the West is a healthy one even where
it takes the form of migration to the
cheaper arable lands in Canada.
"O Frank , what a pity ! " exclaimed

The "surprising announcement is mac
that out of GOO graduates fro ;

This is claimed to be further evidem
that education unfits women for ma
riage. It is contended that higher edi
cati n is a dull process that for the moi
part produces dull women. This rea
oning is bad , for two very manife :
reasons. The woman who continues 3
a college until graduation gene-rail
does it because she is determined 1
make her own way in the world. TL
unmarried woman is not as a rule , tli
dull woman. The uneducated woma
has no choice. She must marry or t
without occupation that is congenu
and supporting. Single , she is hop *
lessly at a disadvantage. But the w <

Brain is sexless , and in the intellectur
arena all have equal standing and 01
portuniry. Many of the best liviu
scientists , historians , litterateurs , phj

their sex is not counted against then
Unlike her less fortunate sister , wh

for suitable marriage are infinitel ;
greater than those of the uneducatei
svoman , who has no alternative but t
je chosen. And yet her field of choic

spirit that has led her to higher educa

Gather , gather , I gather them in.
"I gather them in ; for man and boy ,

Then You'll Remember Me.
When other lips and other hearts ,
Their tales of love shall tell ,
In language whose excess imparts
1 The power they feel so well.
There may perhaps in such a scene ,
Some recollection be ,
Of days that have as happy been ,
* Then you'll remember me.
When coldness or deceit shall slight ,
; The beauty now they prize.
And deem it but a faded light ,
That beams within your eyes ,
When hollow hearts shall wear a mask ,
'Twill break your own to sec ,
In such a moment I but ask ,
That you'll remember me.
OZONE MAKES WATER PURE.
Nature Has Provided a Means for Nen-
; tralizing Stagnant Pools.
The German Imperial Health depart
ment has been making experiments re
cently with a view of determining the
value of ozone as a purifying agent
for stagnant water. The water tested
was taken from the River Spree. The
tank in which it was treated was 315.4
feet high by 10.704 square feet in sec-
ion. A grating fixed a little above
the floor of the tank was covered with
i layer of pebbles about the size of
liens' eggs. The water was sprayed
through a rose on to this bed of peb
bles , while below the grating on which
the latter rested ozonized air was
forced in under pressure. The down-
3owing water thus came into very inti-
nate contact with the upflowing cur-
ent of air.
On reaching the top of the bed this
lir was collected and sent back again
: o the ozonizer , passing through the
ioils of a refrigerator In which any
noisture picked up on its passage
ihrough the pebbles was condensed
ind collected. The air was ozonized
jy spark discharges at 10,000 to 15,000
/olts. From 1,412 to 1,705 cubic feet
) f air could be treated hourly , which
; vere used to sterilize from 1,101 to
i.202 gallons of water. In general it
, vas found that the treatment was
nore effective than sand filtration in
lestroying bacteria.
Practically none of the ozone remains
lissolved in the water as ozone , as it
rery quickly reverts to ordinary oxy-
; en. Chemical tests showed that the
irocess diminishes the oxygen absorp-
; ion , and increases the amount of free
) xygen present in the water ; the color
s improved , and there is no bad effect
m the taste of the water. The cost of
he process with a plant capable of
renting 20,424 gallons per hour , in ,
ilusive of pumping and amortization , Is
eckoned at about 5 cents per 1,000 gal *
ens , one-third of which represents the
ictual cost of the ozonizing.
Rained Rats in Algiers.
News comes from Algiers of an ex-
raordinary phenomenon which reeent-
y took place in the suburbs of Bougie ,

3oon after a cyclone passed over the

ihower to the ground , to the horror of
ne Kabyles , who at sight of them
led in all directions , since they were
: onvinced that the animals had come
lown from heaven. Many of the rats ,
n falling , became impaled on the
arge pointed stakes which act as pali
sades in various parts of the town , but
: he majority reached the ground un-
njured and lost no time in scurrying
; o the open country.

SHE DELIGHTED IN CRUELTY.
Wise I/over Discovered Objectionabl
Trait in ilia Sweetheart.
This incident occurred in Washingto ;
noi very long ago :
A young man AVUS calling upon th
girl to whom he was engaged. Th
couple were sitting on the front step
of the girl's home , an hour or so be
fore the fall of darkness , when the ;
noticed the cat attached to the house
hold of the girl's family going ( low
the steps leading to the basement are ;
with a tiny field mouse in its moutb
That cat had caught the mouse in thi
vacant lot alongside the house.
Dropping the tiny mouse over in i
corner of the area the cat preceded t <
torture the little animal after the ac
copied feline fashion.
She would permit tho mouse to rui
away about a yard or so , pretending
'that she didn't know that there was f
'mouse within miles , and then sh <
would jump out. nail the mouse witl
her foot and toss it back to the corner
Then sbo would pick the mouse ui
in both of her paws , throw it into th (
air , and when it came down and start
ed to run. nail it again. The tinj
mouse would squeeze itself into a cor
.nor and sit up and look at the cat piti
: fully , and then the cat would swipe ii
tout of the corner with her paw and
Istop on it , her oyos blazing ecstatically
and her tail swishing. Some natural
historians say that there is no animal
so atrociously and gloatingly cruel as
the ordinary , purring , domesticated
cat.
"That mouse. " said the young fellow
to tho girl to whom he was engaged ,
" 'is only a youngster yet. Strikes me
; he ought to have a chance for his
white alley. "
I "Oh , I don't know. " said the girl ,
who , with her chin in her hands , was
dreamily and fascinatingly regarding
the spectacle of the mouse being tor
tured b3r the cat.
"Don't you think it horrible to see
the poor little beggar getting the worst
of it that way ? " he asked the girl , with
a slight note of surprise in his tone.
She made no reply , but , still with her
chin resting in her hands , gazed calmly
at the cat tossing the diminutive
mouse into the air and stepping on it
and dabbing at it with her paws and
picking it up in her mouth and throw
ing it down again.
"Mice get into the bouse , " said the
girl , after awhile.
"But that kind don't , " said the young
man , a bit earnestly. "That's a field
mouse , and field mice don't bother any
body. "
The mouse was sitting up in the area
corner , with its tiny forepaws folded
in front in a very pleading attitude ,
while the cat gazed with expanding
eyes at it before beginning to dab at it
igain.
"I'm going to give that mouse a run
for its taw marble , " said the young
man , getting up from the steps auc
starting down the area steps.
"Let the cat alone , " said the girl ,
quietly , but never removing her gaze
from the sight of the tortured mouse.
Toll young man stopped suddenly
ind looked up at the girl.
"I want to give the mouse a chance
to get away. " he said. "Surely you
lon't find enjoyment in watching a
Door little beast getting handled that
way ? "
' You don't have to look at it if you
lon't want to , " said the girl , with a
certain hardness in her tone. "Let the
? at alone. "
The young fellow gazed steadily at
ler for half a minute , but she didn't
ippear to notice this. She was too in-
ent upon the deviltry of the cat.
After twenty minutes of torturing
ts prey , in the course of which it
> roke tho mouse's legs so that the tiny
odent could only hobble in its efforts
o run away , the cat ate the mouse ,
[ "he girl never took her eyes from the
at until the cat had finished its prey ,
[ "hen she gave a sort of satisfied sigh
s she emerged from her fascinated
ranee.
. "Well , the cat has had her supper , "
he said in a matter-of-fact tone to
ier fiance.
"Good-night , " he said to her , and he
ipped his hat to her and .walked down
he street without looking back.
This happened two months ago , says
tie Washington Star. The young fel-
) w hasn't called upon her since. There

"What's that ? " asked one of the
lends.
The flashy young man hesitated for
moment.
"She's fin de sizzle , I said. "
"You mean fin de sozzle , don't you ? "
sked one of the friends.

HOW DUMB B3UTES RIGHT.
Each Species Has Its Distinctive Mett
ods of Defense Against Foes.
No living creature has been left In
defenseless condition by .nature , yt
few people in the world with the e : >
ception of those who make a study c
animal life know exactly what the
are. In the herbivorous animal the d (
fense gift , as it might be called , i
more prominent than in the flesh-ea
ing species , because the latter are th
relentless enemy of the former.
The giraffe , one of the most peculiai
ly built of the herbivorous animals
and onethat , is rapidly becoming es
tiiict , will probably attract more f.t
tendon than any other animal in th
menagerie. This animal is a natrvi
of Samoaland , in Africa , and , beinj
thin-skinned , is supplied by.natur
with remarkably sharp hoofs , whicl
he uses with great destructive fore
when attacked by lions or tigers. 1
giraffe has been known to virtual ! :
tear a lion into shreds.
The zebra also uses his hoofs , bu
in a different manner. Instead o
striking he kicks. Zebras when pur
sued by carnivorous animals will gal
lop for a time. Suddenly they wil
stop , form a circle with their head ;
turned toward the center and kicl
viciously and in unison at their enemy
In the formation of the circle th <
weakest animals are placed in the cen
ter , and in consequence are affordet
an additional protection.
The greatest kicker of the herbivor
ous class is the cassowary. Although
he has but two legs and greatly re
sembles the Thanksgiving turkey , hi
legs easily do the work of four when
put into active service. They are sc
thickly muscled and the bird uses
them with such dexterity that he car
break a tiger's back with one blow.
The eland , which is the largest of
the antelope family , is furnished with
i pair of spiral-like horns , the points
3f which are as sharp as freshly
ground swords. With these horns the
2land , while running in the country
south cf the Sahara desert , impales
lis many adversaries of the cat tribe
ind dashes them to death on the sun-
jaked ground.
The Russian white deer is devoid of
lorns and depends on razor-edged
loofs to protect his family and him
self. Although very timid by nature ,
le becomes a perfect demon when
iroused and fights as long as life re-
nains. The llama also uses his hoofs
n the event of an attack.
The oauger or gorka , known as the
vild niule of India , fights like the ze-
> ra and protects the young and weak
if his kind in the same manner. He
s more timid than the zebra and does
lot possess near the pluck. The yak ,
rom the highlands of the Thibet , butts
tnd tramples on his enemy. He is a
: reat fighter and usually hunts trouble
vith lions and tigers instead of en-
leavoring to avoid them. His coat of
ixtra long coarse hair affords him
ousiderable protection from their
angs and claws.
The hippopotamus is not a fighter ,
xcept among his own kind. He is a
orn sluggard and is a great glutton
nd is continually getting into trou-
ile with his mates over the food sup-
lies. If he fails to reach the water
rhen pursued and his enemy should
jap upon his back the hippopotamus
rusts to his thick hide to prevent pos-
ible injury and endeavors to crush his
dversary by rolling over on him. As
hippopotamus weighs from two tons
p , one roll is usually sufficient to end
ie life of a lion , tiger or other animal
f the species.
That great beast , the elephant , is
Lipplied with an extraordinary thick
iin for protection. That he will fight
as been amply demonstrated in the
ingles of Africa and India. His com-
mn enemy , the tiger , always leaps on
5m from the rear. It is then the ele-
hant turns to fight and often he has
een known to wrap his trunk about
ic body of a tiger and dash the cat
> death against a tree.
"Variety Is Chamunjy. "
A well-known literary gentleman
hose wife and family had gone for
lengthy stay on the Continent , closed
s house and returned to bachelor life
: his club a residential one. Every
orning he got down to breakfast at
o'clock , and day after day , weeli' '
'ter week , the menu compelled him.
ham and eggs. He always occupied
ie same seat , and therefore was al-
ays served by the same waiter. The
alter had become accustomed to the
der , and began to feel that there
as no necessity of formally asking
T instructions. One morning the
aiter placed the carafe and glasses ,
inded over the usual newspaper , and
nfidently observed :
"Ham and eggs , sir , I suppose ? "
"No ! " came the surprising answer.
) o you suppose a man can't find any- ,
ing to eat except ham and eggs ev-
y day of his life ? Hand me the
; rd , and I'll see if I can't have a

Then for four or five minutes he
anned the bill of fare intently , his
ce shrouded in frowning gloom ,
'hen he looked up , it was to glare at
e waiter and say :
"Bring me a ham omelette ! "
