While the result of the Minnesota
game is a deep disappointment to ev
ery one connected with tho University
It cun be made a useful lesson to tho
student body. While the result wus
not wholly due to Inck of good rooting
thut certainly combined for It. The
rooters did not get together until It
was too lnte to do any good. The
rooters organization should hnve been
effected two weoks before It was. Some
thing might have been done then to
wards effective- work at the game Sat
urday This lesson ought to he heeded.
PLANTS EAT INSECTS.
V anas' Fly-Trap Discriminates lletwsea
Animal ami Oiknr Matter.
A few Inserting eating plants have
been gathered from the swamp Inuds of
North Carolina and California, and
others have boon sent from India, Aus
tralia and Madagascar. Perhaps tho
best known of the group Is Venus' Fly
Trap. Tlie leaves vary from one to
six Inches long, and nt the extremities
are placed two blades or claspers. On
the Inner walls of these claspers there
are six Irritable hairs, any one of which
receiving the slightest touch from an
Insect la sufnclent to bring the two
blades together with such rapidity as
to preclude any possibility of the fly
vscaplnf. A correct idea of how the
trap closes on Its victim may be ob
tained by hriuglnx the two hands rap
idly together, the fingers of one being
firmly pressed between thoae of the
other. This plant nattily discriminates
between animal and other matter; this.
If a small stone or piece of wood be
dropped Into the trap H will instantly
close, but as soon as It has found out
its 'mistake, and It only takes a few
minutes, it begins to unfold Its trap,
and the piece of woqd or atone fulls
out. On the other hand, should a piece
of beef or a blue bottle fly be placed In
It, It will remain firmly closed until
every piece of organic matter Is ab
sorbed through the leaf. It will then
unfold itself, and is ready for another
meal.
THE DAILY
STRICT TUTELAGE.
rtelallons of Apprentice and Mastrr In
the Middle Age.
Apprenticeship was an Important In
stitution In Franco In the thirteenth
and fourteenth centuries, nnd wnn reg
ulated with the utmost care, as will be
een by the following account of "An
Idler In Old France." By the rules of
the book the mnatcr was held greatly
responsible for his apprentice: and un
der a wise and kindly roof, the Ind who
wa8 learning to be a mnster workman
and a ruler In his little world might
lead a happy nnd profitable life. Often
ho did so, and when the day came that
he might claim his freedom, he chose
to remain the paid servant, friend nnd
fellow-worker of te master who had
flickered him from boyhood and taught
him all his craft, rather than to seek
a fortune less assured else were. Dur
ing (he years of his apprenticeship the
patron or master was to feed, clothe
and shelter him. in the homely word
ing of the clockmaker's rule, to cher
ish him "beneath his roof, at Is boad
nhd by his hearth " Nay. It was strict
ly enjoined upon the master to treat
hlB apprentice- "as his own rfon," and
In somo trades he was bidden to re
member (hat his responsibility did not
end on the threshold of the workshop,
that the "soul nnd morals" of the little
stranger had claims on his Fe'lcltude
In a dny when the streets of Paris were
not verj nice for anybody, and were
more or 'ess tlangerous after dark for
everybody, Wie master was Instructed
to be careful of what erraiul he dis
patched the youngster, and the pastry
cooks, whose apprentices were often
sent to cry enkes and creams upon tho
public ways, were continually warned
to prevent the lnds from falling among
evil company. It seems certain that,
so far as the middle nges are concern
ed, the rules, precepts and admoni
tions were not only framed with great
good ikmibo nnd enre. but were very rig
idly enforced upon all masters who
had youths and lads In tl.el.1 employ.
High and low, In the society of that
day, the iod and birch were nourished,
with small discrimination ami less nice
ty; and if the lutois of little princes
had leave to whip them freely appren
tices could not ex.pi.ct to come off toa
lightly nt a master's hand.

A tainted breath may be temporarily
puriflrd by occasional! che-ing a bt
of orris rc.i.t or stick cinnamon. Hut
thin merely disguises the odor. A bad
breath comes chiefly from drcajjrg
teeth, and in some (uses has Its origin
in a disordeied stomach. When dis
eased teeih caiibe impure breath, re
coil l.se should be had to 11 dentist;
when organic disease is the cause, as
is eiy often the case, u physician
should always be consulted. The breath
should always be kept sweet, and peo
ple should guard against making them
selves disagreeable to their assoclat's
by being indifferent In this mattter.
Many a woman, otherwise charming in
every respect, has unwittingly repelled
her acquaintances by her impure

Success and Suffering linked.
Success and suffering are vitally and
organically linked. If you succeed
without suffering it Is because some
one else haB suffered before you; If
you suffered without Biiccess it Is that
someone else may succeed after you.

W' ASIA IS WONDERFUL.
Thut Continent (lie Ktntje for Prominent
Historical Figures.
Writing of his travels in the Orient,
Lord Curzon, the prosont viceroy of
India, has the following good wonl to
sny for Asia in genf-rnl; Asia has al
ways appenrel to me to possess a fas
cination which no country oi empire
in Europe, still less any pnrt of tho
western hemisphere, can claim. It Is
believed by many to have been the
crndle of our race, and the birthplace
of our language, Just as It certainly has
been the hearthstone of our rollglon,
and the fountain-hoad of the beat of
our Ideas. Wide ns is the chasm that
now severs us, with Its philosophy our
thought Is still Interpenetrated Tho
Asian continent hns supplied a scene
for the principal events, and a stage
for the most prominent figures. In his
tory. Of Asian parentage is that force
which, more than any other Influence,
hns transformed and glorified man
kind viz., the belief in a single Deity.
Five of the six greatest moral teachors
that the world has seen Moses. Bud
(fha, Confucius, Jesus and Mahommed
were born of Asian parents, and
lived upon Asian soil. Roughly Bpeak
ing. their creeds may be snld to have
divided the conquest of the universe.
The moBt famous or the wisest of
kings Solomon, Nebuchadnezzar, Cy
rus. TImur, Haber, Akbar have sat
upon the Asian thrones. Thither tho
great conqueror of tho Old World
turned aside for the sole theater be
fitting so enormous an ambition Tho
three most populous existing empires
Great Britain, Itussln and China-aro
Asian empires, and It is because they
are not merely European but Asian
that the two former are Included in
the category. To Asia we owe the
noblest product of all literatur, in the
Old Testament of the Hebrew Scrip
tures; the sweetest of lyrics, In the
eplthalarolum of .1 Jewish king, tho
embryos of modern knowledge. In the
empiricism of Arabian geometers and
metaphysicians. In Asia the drama wa3
bom. There the greatest writer of an
tiquity chose a scene for his immortal
epic. There, too, the mariner's com
pass lirnt guided men over the pathless
vvatei.s In our own times alone it is
with her aid thut we have arrived nt
the evolution of three new bdences
comparative mythology, co-nmratlvo
-"'-prudence, and philology. Krom
Ahia we have received the architecture
of the Moslem that moat spiritual and
refined of human conceptions the por
celain of China, the faience of Persia,
Rhodes, and Damascus, the infinitely
ingenious nrt of Japan On her aoil
was reared the modt astonishing of
nil cities, Babylon; the most princely
of palaces, Perbopolls; the stateliest of
templ?s, Angkor Wat; the loveliest of
tombs, the Taj Mahal. There, too. may
be found the most wonderful of Na
ture's productions the loftiest moun
tains on the bin-face of the globe, the
most lenowned, Tf not tViTTargest. of
rivers, the moHt entrancing of land
scapes. In the heart ofv Asia lies to
this day the one mystery which tho
nineteenth century has still left for
the t -entleth to explore viz., the Tib
etan oracle of Lhasa.
Wireless Teh g aphy for Japan.
Two wireless teiegraph Instruments,
said to be the most powerful ever made,
are to be shipped from New York to
Japan. They were made especially for
Japan, and will be installed on two of
tho fastest Japanese cruisers. It is ex
