His genius la crave ia the ode, gay in the stanza, enabling him to perform with oat adventitious aid all the functions of the court poet Thus, when a lady Ja the diplomatic circle was returning to her native land, and received in coaaeqaence the unprecedented honor of a visit from the empress, a royal ataaza embellished the parting. The gray goose," ran the verse, "is flying westward." The departing lady's white hair was symbolized by that bird to which Japanese artists are so partial, the goose itself being em bJematic in the native poetical mind of feminine loveliness .in its most rav fcmiag aspects. The Japanese pretti aess qf the thing is quite sacrificed in w ragged phraseology. Mutsu Hito's poetical fame is, therefore, strictly aa- Caadttcatian. , All Institutions which have been es takllshri by the aUta for higher edu catioa should provide for the educa tion of both men aad women, and it is n decided gaia to have this work done by aae institution rather than by two aad there Is no serious objection to the educatioa of men aad women in the aame institution that has been es tablished for both, says Cyrus Nor thrup, president of the University of Minnesota, in Collier's. The boys and girls grow up together in the same family; they go together to the same graded school; they go together to the aame high school; they go together to the university, and coeducation in the .university does not seem to any of them any more strange or unnatural than coeducation tin the lower schools fcaa seemed strange. So far as the in aeace of the men upon the women. ar the women upon the men. is con cerned. I am quite certain that the result ia general to good. The men are made more gentlemanly, and the women, while having all the frankness .aad freedom of the home life and the acaool life, never lose the refinement which belongs to them as women. I .have bo sympathy whatever with the -what shall J call it? sentimentality which seeks to segregate the women and shut them in by themselves In the work of education. Earthquake shocks were felt in fonr continents in the six days between April 14 and 19. They began with de structive shocks in Mexico by which three towns were ruined. Then Spain, Russian Transcaucasia and Constant! Bople felt the tremors, and there were shocks at Manila and Charleston, and volcanic eruptions accompanied by earthquakes manifested themselves in Chile. It is interesting to note, says Youth's Companion, that these shocks, with the exception of the one at Charleston, occurred in the recognized earthquake belts, one of which encir cles the Pacific ocean; and the other goes about the earth by way of Mexi co, the West Indies, Spain, Italy, the Caucasus, northern India, the JPhllip pines and the Pacific islands. So many school children have been .found with defective eyesight that the .school committees of several cities have considered furnishing eyeglasses .free. It to a question how far govern jment should go in supplying citizens .with the necessary things of life. (Most American parents will prefer to pay the oculist. In many cities are free dispensaries where poor children can be treated and receive free pre scriptions for glasses. Parents should be warned against incompetent ocu lists who take advantage of the re ports of, the boards of education on the matter of eyesight in the schools, and try to get business for themselves by exaggerated warnings to the "par eats of school children threatened with blindness." "Psychic epilepsy" has succeeded brain storm aa a aiedical term. A New York physician has just been cleared of the charge of brutally assaulting a asaa aad womaa on the street on .the plea that he had been subject to at tacks of psychic epilepsy .from child hood., and that on .recovery he had bo knowledge of what had occurred. Just how the ailment' dikers from ordinary enUepay la sot made clear, hut it will undoubtedly prove to be a convenient malady la crimiaal procedure. Aaatataat Prof. George A.

' - Often is heard protest against what is called clannisliness amoag f oreiga ers who become citizens of the United Stotes. , It la claimed that they carry old-couritry ideas with them .to the new land, and refuse to mingle with other than their own naonaiity. in defense of these foreigners who are thus charged, it to but fair to say that many of them labor under the misap prehension that they are not looked upon by the older American citizens as companionable. Often their' lack of a knowledge of the English lan guage makes their own class desir able associates. It will be observed that in one or two generations condi tion changes and- the children of these foreigners become -thoroughly Amer icanized. t mnu he well if some of the traitsof clanntohness that are manifest in foreign "colonies be generally prac ticed throughout the United states, in 1848 an .effort was made to colonize land in Missouri with a progressive class of German citizens. The events immediately following this effort, the loss of one shipload .of immigraata and the subsequent sufferings of the newcomers, is a matter of history. Bat undaunted hundreda of those who at that time sought homes In the bow country, gained for themaelves envi able places Ib the annals of American hlatory. and they founded commu nities that may well be held up aa model worthy to be copied. In Gaa coaade county. Missouri, a large colony fef these people sought homes. There they tilled the soil and cultivated vine yards. They were of one tongue aae of one religious belief, a highly moral. Sard-working people, and their aim was to found homes for themselves and their progeny. To4ay in Gas conade county there Is more evidence of wealth, of culture and harmony among the people than can be found In an? lke area of the United States.' From the founding of the colony it was recagaized that if progress be snade that the wealth produced by members should he., retained. Mills were gradually built'for the conver sion of the grain into flour, wine presses were found on almost every homestead, and towns were built. Among the first institutions establish ed were schools and churches, and these to-day are prominent factors In the molding of the character of the people. It was one of the rales of the col ony to assist one another.. Each one while working for huuelf and his family, realized that it was to his ad vantage to patronize his neighbor. Thus when the towns were started and stores opened, it was made a rule that these stores he patronized and that the store-keeper be allowed a fair profit for the goods he sold. Tailor shops, boot and shoe makers, soap makers, and even the brewers of beer found their customers solely among the members of the colony. Although St Louis was.withm a few hours' ride, the members of the colony considered that the dollars kept .in the little town instead of being spelt in St. Louis meant much for the ad vancement of the place. As years passed by members, of the colony bet came nrosnerous. Families were reared and children married, addition al homesteads were secured and there was. a thorough cooperation among all towards making life agreeable and giving each member of the commu nity a means of acquiring a compe tency. One of the early undertak ings was the building of macadamized roads. These roads today are kept .in the best of condition and .have proved a mutter of economy to the county. Schools and churches, which at first were roughly built, have been replaced with magnificent edifices which are sources of pride to the resi dents of the community. Some of the small business places of 40 or 50 years ago have grown to be of almost national importance. In fact all res idents of the community are inde pendent, and a few of them posses sors of great wealth. How success ful they have been to shown by the absence of paupers in the county. There are no public charges, neither is there any great expense as to main taining a county jail. This community to but one of many in the Mississippi valley and through out the west. Such communities have been built up solely by the simple ad-1 herence to cooperation among mem bers aad a following out of the'home trade principle. Members realized that every dollar earned In the com munity and sent to some other place robbed the community -'$ so much wealth, aad that' this dollar ceased to be a factor hv-iacreasiag the'Jmpor-1 tance aad progress of the place. Ja these communities are generally lo cated flouring mills. The output of these mills finds local aale aad the sur plus is sent to the markets to bring la money from the OBtaMe. - It ap pears that if the aimple economical methods of maay. classes of dttsens of foreign birth were to be practiced more geaerauy oy people reetaiag la various agricultural communities of the United States, it would be whole some and that these commeattiee would make greater progress. The practice that has grows up of pat ronizing other than home institutions has elements of evil that are wen worthy of careful study. In these years of progress the Inclination to economize in small taiags and to save a penny by sending dollars to the large cities oftea results. in heavy losses to the people. Yet there is aa under-current nt work, an awakening to the' amavrtaaee of the .people of every community more closely coop eratiag for the advancement of the iaterests of all. j ) 1 Progressiva, Towns Offcr , EacaKcnt Advahtages'fbr Young man. soctptogy save recent- iifisaiiii ViMliBimr-' as to chances for the success of young man of country districts. There has been no denyiag of the fact that the farm affords a splendid opportunity for those inclined towards a pastoral life, bat it, la malataiaed that, of recent years conditions preclude any great caaacea for the average yo' man to .saeceed in , the average bnelncsa vocation.. That to that the channels for 'his development are1 being made more Barrow year after .year through the formation of corporations and trusts for the control of various in dustries.. In-other words, .the, cen tralization of business to' considered detrimental to the pursuing of busi ness in mercantile lines on a small scale. This subject to open to wide discus sion. Cities and towns of the United States are rapidly building up. The population of the country is Increas ing wonderfully. With this increase in population new opportunities pre sent themselves for the-' exercise of intelligent endeavor. The towns, par ticularly of the west, are embryo cit ies, and the Utile village of to-day will be the large city a quarter cen tury hence. Almost every town af fords the progressive young man a chance for business success. Oppor tunities are plentiful for those who have the foresight to discover tnem. Towns are built up where are certain natural advantages and their growth to dependent upon the territory that they can draw support from, or upon some-particular, advantage that they may possess favorable to manufactur ing along: certain lines. The oppor tunities for young men are to some extent gnaged by the life and prog ress of the towns. Heads of families look forward to the time when their none may enter into basineas or pro fessional life. Ties of kinship are atroag and few pareats care to have grown aoaa and daughters far away from them. In this Is- discovered a reason why residents of a rural dis trict should take more than ordinary interest in the home town. The more important the local town the greater are the opportunities for the young men of the neighborhood engaging in business .in 'Ii In thousands: of cities and towns of the' United States the leading business mien to-day are the boys who were farmers' sons a quar ter or a half century ago. In modest ways they started in business in the home town, and with the progress oz the town developed as business men. The opportunities that were opened to those youths are still open to the youths of to-day, but remember that many of these men would not have been the great business men they are to-day only for the fact the towns where they Ideated were progressive places which gave the opportunity to succeed. COMMON SENSE ECONOMICS. Simple Principles for Application in Everyday Affairs. He who aims to be fair toward his neighbor will not deny him the oppor tunity to make an honest living. The day laborer should be as weU reward ed, according to his work, as is the merchant or the banker. Merchants are shortsighted when they will order potatoes or other vegetables by the carload from an other town when right In their neigh borhood farmers have just as good po tatoes to sell, and perhaps at a lower price. No use in paying the commis sion man a percentage in a case like this. From fruit-growing sections year after year reports come as to the rot ting of tire crops on accouunt of the poor transportation facilities, or re fusal of buyers in the large cities to pay prices sufficient to pay for gath ering. ' Here is an opportunity for the manifestation of local enterprise. Why not start small drying and can ning establishments to use up the sur plus fruit? Such establishments could be profitably conducted, and operated with benefit to all the people of the community. There to little economy for the storekeepers to keep on their shelves goods that are likely to grow out of date, or deteriorate in value. Better seU all such goods at actual cost and give the people of the neighborhood the benefit of lowest prices. People are interested in prices of goods. The wise merchants fully ap preciate the value of the home paper as a medium of intercourse with their customers. Well-written advertise ments and the naming of prices at tract attention, for the average per son when his attention is called to an article always wants to know the cost One dollar circulated In a commun ity to worth to it $50 circulated In acme other place. A district to made wealthy only "by retaining in it the dollars that are earned wjthin it 'or which :nay be brought tS it through commerce. Residents of rural communities should beware of traveling agents who are disposing of new-fangled cold air refrigerators. This refrigerator to represented as requiring no ice. AU that la accessary to to fill some of the reservoirs it contains with, cold water. The agent does not ask that the farm er evea buy this refrigerator, and represents that he to merely advertis ing It and .desires to place one on trial without cost to the farmer. Of course a receipt for the wooden box to asked. This receipt in the course of a few months turns up as a prom toory note for $68. The farmer haa a cheap wooden affair on his hands that la not worth the room it occupies, and a total failure as far as the re frigerator goes. You can do much for your neighbor by helping build up your home town. He bo doubt is as much interested in the betterment of the achoola and churches as you are. at Home We are all creatures of habit, and women alike, and "ihe habits and aurroundraga of daily life have a powerful influence on the character of both.

The New York Ufa's Business Nearly Up to the Legal Limit. The New York Life Ins-France Com pany announces that its new paid business during the half year just end ed was over seventy million dollars. As the new law allows no Hfe com pany to write overv one 'hundred and fifty millions per year, it would ap pear that this company is working nearly up to the limit The New York Life xained such headway be fore the law was passed and suffered so little, comparatively, from the Arm strong investigation, that the question with its management has been how to keep business down to the limit, rath er than how to reach it. No other company to writing nearly as much as the law allows. The New York Life has evidently become a pre ferred company. , The company's payments to policy holders during the six months end ing June SO were $21,880,761. It is interesting to note that this amount was almost equally divided between payments 'under policies maturing by death and payments made to living policy holders. Thus, while death claims were $11,180,828, the amount paid for matured endowments, annu ities, trust fund Installments, for. pur chased policies and for dividends was $10,480,136. Modern life insurance, as practiced by the best companies, em braces a wide field, and covers many contingencies. It is money saved for the aged, as well as money provided for the families of those who die pre maturely. "Sensible to the Last," An old Scotch lady used to be at tended by a doctor to whom she in variably gave a guinea -when he went to see her. He had told the friends with whom she lived that her death would probably be sudden, and one day he was hurriedly aent for, aa she appeared1 to have become unconscious. On bis arrival he saw at once that the old lady was dead, and, taking hold of her right hand, which was closed, but not rigid, he calmly ex tracted from It the fee which she had provided for him, and aa he did so be murmured: "Sensible to the last" Modesty of True Greatness. Aboil Ben Adhem had just found out that his name led all the rest "Still," he observed, with a modesty as rare as It was charming, "the sea son Is young yet I've made a few lucky hits, it's true, but just as likely as not I shall be at the bottom of the percentage column in batting before the season ends." Smilingly accept ine the bouauet of cut flowers sent to him by an admirer in the grandstand, he steepped up to tne piate, strucs out dodged a lemon thrown at him by a disgusted bleacherite, and went and took his seat on the bench. Generous Mr. Kraft "Mr. Kraft the merchant," said the college president "has offered to do nate $5,000 for a new building to be known as 'Kraft hall."' "But " said the dean of the facul ty,, $"$5,000 won't pay for the build ing we want" "Oh! no. You see, Mr. Kraft's gen erous offer Is contingent upon our se curing donations of $10,000 each from ten other public-spirited citizens." Philadelphia Press. Very Handy. "Among the people who greeted the President upon his arrival at Oyster Bay." says an exchange, "none at tracted so much attention as a woman who carried two children in her arm? and led another by the hand:" It strikes us that a capable woman like that would attract attention anywhere. Washington Post MEAT OR CEREALS. A Question of Interest to All Care ful Persons. Arguments on food are interesting. Many persons adopt a vegetarian diet on the ground that they do not like to feel that life has been taken to feed them, nor do they fancy the thought of eating dead meat On the other hand, too great con sumption of partly cooked, starchy oats and wheat or white bread, pastry, ete, produces serious bowel troubles, because the bowel digestive organs (where starch to digested), are over taxed and the food ferments, produc ing gas, and microbes generate in the decayed food, frequently bringing om peritonitis and appendicitis.- Starchy food Is absolutely essential to the human body. Its best form to shown in the food "Grape-Nuts," where the starch is changed into a form of sugar during the process of its manu facture. In this way, the required food ia presented to the system in a pre-dlgested form aad to immediately made into blood and- tissue, without taxing the digestive organs. A remarkable result in nourishment Is obtained; the person using Grape Nuts gains quickly In physical and mental strength. Why in mental? Because' the food contains delicate particles of Phosphate of Potash ob tained from the grains, and this unites with the albumen of all food and the combination Is what nature uses to re build worn out cells In .the brain. This Is a scientific fact that can be easily proven by ten day's use of Grape-Nuts, "There's a Reason.'
