Roosevelt into Jungles.
Mombasa, April 22.—Theodore
Roosevelt and the members of his
party left here on a special train
at 2:30 o’clock this afternoon for
Kapiti Plains Station, whence
they will be conveyed to the
ranch of Sir Alfred Peace for
their first shooting trip. The
party is accompanied by F. J.
Jackson, acting governor of the
Protectorate.
Before leaving Mr. Roosevelt
telegraphed to King Edward,
thanking him for the message of
greeting.

On Thursday afternoon, Mrs.
A. J. Stewart and Miss Ada
Thompson, assisted'by Miss Lee
Moore, entertained a few of the
High school girls, at the home of
Mrs. Stewart. The time was
pleasantly and profitably passed
in making flowers to be used in
decorating for the picnic. The
tedium of work was relieved by
songs and recitations, when these,
in their turn became monotonous,
lemonade and taffy candy re-
freshed the diligent workers.
Choice cut flowers and growing
hot house plants were tastefully
grouped in the rooms, giving a
cheerful aspect to the scene.
Refreshments consisting of ice
cream and cake were served,
then the girls dispersed for home
—a merry, happy crowd. Each
voted Mrs. Stewart and her
assistants as charming hostesses
and excellent entertainers. The
following wtre present: Misses
Bird Salter, Ivy Loyd, Mary
Rainwater, Alta Fuilwood, Olah
Townley, Willie Moore, Elsie
Coker, Myrtle Scaggs, Halley
Hobbs and Olha Mathis.
The future Man and Woman.
What do the parents think of
the little boy or girl that pays no
attention to what they say? How
many times have they told the
children to do something, or not
to do do it, and then paid no at
tention to it, never knowing
whether the request had been
granted? The child is such a
dear little thing you do not wish
to contrary it, and it is so small
no one need pay any attention to
it. But it is innocent and good
now; are you making it other-
wise? Are you teaching it that
you, its father and mother, don’t
mean what you say? Are you
leading it to become indifferent
to your wishes, and teaching it
to become a rude, inconsiderate
person? It is a fearful resposibil-
itywhen parents realize a child
is never bad until it has
learned to_be so. It was given
as an angel, innocent and pure.
What is it now, and who has
been its teachers? What is bad
for the grown up is bad for the
child. If it is bad to deceive or
lie to the grown-up, it is bad to
deceive or lie to the child. It is
no wonder the school has such a
task to discipline and educate
the children, or that the church
seems to make such slow progress
in evangelizing the world or in-
ducing the wprld to do good.
Pass a few days in the average
home, and see how the small
children are managed. It is a
wonder that men and women are
as good as they are.—Exchange.

Even a legless man can run

It requires a skillful surgeon to
set a bone, but anybody can set

When a girl falls in love with a
loafer we usually find him the
idle of her heart.
There is little expectation that
the July and August sun will
melt the ice trust.
The corn-field ought to take a
high rank, because there are so
many kernels in it.
It would not take a thrashing
machine very long to trash out
some men’s ideas.
The actioneer knocks down al-
most everything he touches, and
yet nobody seems to mind it.
“By their fruits ye shall know
them,” but what about a tree
with a dozen different varieties
of grafts?
Our neighbor’s faults are mag-
nified seven-flold, but as to our
own shortcomings we cannot see
them with a microscope.
It is not best always to stay at
home; an occasional change is
good for everybody. Even the
kitchen fire goes out occasionally.
Every farmer can be his own
weather profit if he will keep his
tools under the shed, and his
stock in the stable during bad
nights.
There are lots of people in the
world who appear to have the
brains of a mule. All they seem
to be able to do is to eat, sleep
and kick.
In a horse deal with thy neigh-
bor, do not neglect to mention
the splint on thine own, and
thus thou shalt have a record for
fair dealing.
Farmer Jones was pleased as
Punch when he heard his son
was being taught fencing at col-
lege, but when he saw the small
instruments used in the instruc-
tion, his pleasure gavp way to
disgust.—Farm Journal.

Now comes the New York
Court of Appeals and hands
down a decision that will very
materially affect the railroad hog,
who is accustomed to crowding
out the lesser beings who do not
travel so far or so often as he
does.
We’ve all had the experience
of going into a crowded coach
and finding one or more seats
occupied by a pile of baggage,
while the owner of the baggage
was enjoying himself in the
smoker and expecting to come to
his seat and find it undisturbed
when he had finished his smoke.
Many a weary woman, with
little ones clinging to her skirts
has looked with longing eyes up-
on the seat thus ©ccupied, but,
because of a custom that has
been recognized as giving a man
a right to hold his seat in a rail-
road coach by depositing his
baggage therein, she has stood
up and endured the hardship as
best she could.
But this need be so no longer,
as the New York court of appeals
has decided that a man has no
right to reserve a seat in this
manner, stating in the opinion
that railroad seats are for pas-
sengers and not for baggage.
The New Orleans Picayune
says:
“You know what a familiar
thing it is for a man to rush into
a day coach, deposit his baggage
in a seat, expecting the baggage
to serve as a mark of reservation,
and then proceed to the smoking
compartment. It seems that this
I customary stunt was done in New j |
York. Another man entered the j |
I coach, insisted upon taking the I f
! seat in which the smoker had de- j |
posited his baggage, and a fight! i
ensued between the two. The
second comer was worsted by
physical strength, but he had al-
ready thrown some of the other
fellow’s baggage out of the
window. When the conductor
was appealed to he refused to
interfere or pronounce upon the
claim of either party.
“The man who first had the
seat brought suit, claimed
damages for the loss of his bag-
gage, as well as for his injured
feelings. But the decision of the
court was against him, the judge
holding that seats in a railroad
coach are for passengers and not
for baggage, and that a seat can-
I not be held in reservation by the
| depositing upon it of baggage.—
