ropo for special study, either of music,
art or lor the purpose of acquiring one or
more of the continental languages—Ger-
man, French and Italian. The question
where, when and how to use time and
money most profitably, i. c., to which
province or cities to go; whether to enter
at once a pension school where only
French, German or Italian is spoken; or
to live in some family where either lan
guage is spoken exclusively; or, to take
rooms and live en famille. taking, per
haps, some meals at restaurants. Laeh
method has some advantages, also some
objections. In deciding where to go, for
instance, to learn German, the Berlin cult
will say: "In Bavaria the language is not
spoken so purely as in northern Ger
many"; while the south German habit
ant claims the better accent, the Saxon
and Austrian Germans have each local
claims; but, in point of fact, German is
well spoken and well taught by educated
people throughout the German empire;
yet, in each separate province, peasants
and laborers and their children speak
dialects, which are as distinct as are the
languages of the different tribes of Amer
ican Indians, and can be understood no
where else. Hence the conclusion that,
all other things being equal, one province
is as good as another in the
Language.
One of the greatest objections to the
pension or boarding-school is the in
sulucient diet. European cooking is so
different from American, and, at lirst, so
unpalatable, that young girls who. ought
to have appetizing and nourishing food,
and plenty of it, could not be sufficiently
fed. Then, again, though these schools
guard very carefully their pupils, asso
ciations with girls so differently taught
and whose moral training may or may
not have been the best; also, the absence
of home and religious helps, is a vital ob
jection to pension schools. Of these
schools, the Swiss are said to be the best,
and in them French is far more readily
acquired than in the Paris .schools where
so many American girls are sent, and
where, as would naturally be tho case,
the English-speaking pupils associate,
and, as a matter of course, communicate
in their own language.—Ladies' Home

Day-Dawn in the Country.
I do not think that it is ever real morn
ing except in the country, writes Jr. Tal
mage in the Ladies? Home Journal. Iv
the city, in the early part of the day,
there is a mixed color that climbs down
over the roofs opposite, and through the
smoke of the chimney, that makes people
think it is time to get up and comb their
hair. But we have real morning in the
country. Morning! "descending from
<«od out of heaven like a bride adorned
for her husband." A few moments ago I
looked out, and the army of night-shad
ows were striking their tents. A red
light on the horizon that does not make
mo think, as it did Alexander Smith, of
"the barren beach of hell," but more like
unto the lire kindled on the shore by
Him whom the l>isciples saw at day
break stirring the blaze on the beach of
Genesareth. Just now the dew woke up
in the hammock of the tree branches, and
the light kissed it. Yonder, leaning
against the sky, two great uprights of
flame, crossed by many randies of lire!
Some .Jacob must have been dreaming.
Through those burnished gates a flaming
chariot rolls. Some Elijah must bo as
cending. Morning! 1 wish 1 had a rous
ing bell to wake the whole world to see
it. livery leaf a psalm. Every flower a
censer. Every bird a chorister. Every
sight, beauty. Every sound, music.
Trees transfigured. The skies in con
flagration. The air as if .sweeping down
from hanging-gardens of heaven. Tho
foam of celestial seas splashed on the
white tops of the Spiraea. The honey
suckles on one sido of the porch chal
lenges the sweet-brier on the other. The
odors of heliotrope overflow tho urns and
flood tho garden. Syringas, with bridal
blossoms in their hair, and roses bleed
ing with a very carnage of color. < >h, the
glories of day-dawn in the country! My
pen trembles and my eyes moisten. Vn
iike the flaming sword that dove out the
first pair from Eden, these fiery splendors
seem like swords unsheathed by angel
hands to drive us in.
A Tni? Insect Voice.
Several species of Insects have apparat
us lor producing sounds similar to that of
the grasshopper or modifications of it.
I >t' a different type is that with which the
cicadas are endowed —the only creatures
of this class which have vocal apparatus
analogous to those oi the higher animals.
Only the males of this family are singers,
for which the <-:■<• k poets called them
happy because their females were dumb.
With the ancients a cicada sitting on a
harp was the symbol of music. A pretty
fable tells of the contest between two
cithara players, in which the curious
event happened that when one of the
contestants broke a string, a singing ci
cada sprang on his harp and helped him
out so that he gained the prize. The
Greeks, who shut the Insects in vages so
a* to be sung by them in their sleep, were
at odds concerning the nature of their
singing apparatus, and the controversy
among the naturalists on the subject
:r\sl< >l till very recently. The zoologist.
Jl. Lnndois, who investigated the difficult
subject of animal sounds with ceaseless
industry and great skill, was able to give
a satisfactory solution to the question.
According to his research, the case is one
in which the sound is really made by air
circulating through passages in the in
terior of the body. Every insect's body
is penetrated by a system of breathing
tubes or trachea- which open at places on
airfare. Tho openings are called
Btigmata. This system of breathing-tabes,
through whichtite air is inspired and ex
pired, takes the place of the lung of the
higher animals. Landoisdiscovered them
in very obscure parts of the cicada, and
found that they form a kind of windpipe
nting the actual tone-factory of
tho animals. — Popular Science Monthly.

Why Dr. Price's Baking Powder is
Superior to all others.
No great efforts are made by other manufacturers
to procure and use pure materials.
It is true that one other company has the facilities,
but its greed and cupidity induced it in an evil hour to use
ammonia, in order to swell its profits. Hence the Price
Baking Powder Company stands alone in its fight for a pure
baking powder.
No other article of human food receives greater care
in its production, or has attained higher perfection. Dr.
Price's Cream is surely a perfect baking powder. Free from
every taint of impurity. No other article used in the
kitchen has so many steadfast friends amocg the house-

ABSOLUTELY PURE
COUNTRY LIFE.
Bad Roads Are Responsible for Dislike
To It.
While Mr. Eookwalter is right in
ascribing much of the tendency of popu
lation to move from the country to the
city to the isolation of farm life, and
while his plan of having farm hinds so
surveyed that there would be a village in
the center of each section where all the
families might live has excellent features,
we think that he has scarcely given due
weight to the evil eiieets of our country
roads in creating and enforcing almost
absolute seclusion for country dwellers.
The wont difficulty about rural life is
not the distance that separates one habi
tation from another, it is the fact that this
distance to be traversed is a barrier, dur
ing certain seasons of the year, almost as
impassable as a mountain range or a
swollen torrent. Farmers, as a rule, are
well supplied with vehicles and horses.
They are not wedded to a life of solitude,
but love cheer and sociability even better
than other folks. They find these denied
to them by the condition of the country
roads during a large portion of the year.
This is less marked in our prairie coun
try than it is in sections at tho East and
South, where the soil changes, under tho
influence of rainfall, to a tenacious mud
that practically negatives all locomotion.
But even here there is a considerable
portion of the year when a drive <>l from
three to ton miles is anything but a pleas
ant undertaking. In the most unfavora
bly situated communities there are fully
six months when neighborhood inter
course is denied to all but pedestrians.
This is the great sacrifice which he must
make who decides to try country life in
'A-A- i'nited States.
It is hardly doubtful that a large sharo
of the average Englishman's passion for
residing in the couiry, and a .still larger
share of his fondness tor long walks and
rides, is due to tho fact that he does not
know what a poor road is. Such a high
way, anywhere bo Great Britain, as the
best of our country roads would provoke
ihu native to an insurrection. From one
end of the island to the other the traveler
finds everywhere the same beautiful,
even surface for driving, equal in com
fort and very like in appearance to our
asphalt streets, though it is only a supe
rior macadam. Over this the heavy Eng
lis carriages, which a horse could hardly
move in this country, bowl merry up
hill and-down dale. On one side is the
gravel footpath for walking people, on
the other tho dirt bridle path for those on
horseback. And between them the ideal
highway stretches its glistening length,
free from mud or stones or dust at all sea
sons of the year. It is small wonder that
people love the country and that short
distances do not deter them or compel
them to live secluded where the facilities
for travel are such as these.
Yet the difference between the country
j roads of Great Britain and those ot the
United States is rather one of intelligent
interest and painstaking than one of ex
pense. The Englishman lias simply
Learned how to go about road-making.
j He prepares the surface with almost or
j quite as much care as we do for laying a
pavement. Then, when the macadam is
, laid on, he sees to it that it has constant
attention. A little break, a slowly form
ing depression is not allowed to ruin the
roadway. Stocks of finely-broken stone
are ready prepared everywhere, and tho
slightest detect is repaired immediately.
We think it can be proved that, in many
of the older communities of this country,
the people have actually paid out more
money for highway construction and re
pair per mile than it has cost the English
to create and maintain their almost per
jrstem of roads. A good deal of the
I money has been wasted by political
I spoilsmen. Most of the remainder has
been applied unintelligently; a lot of men
digging deep ditches on either side of the
highway, throwing the earth from these
into the center, and thinking that this
convex surface of newly-dug mold could
be called a road, and this process "road
mending."
There are signs of an awakening of in
telligent interest in the subject in some
quarters. Professorships have been es
tablished in some of the colleges to teach
the art of road making, and people are
tieginning to understand the frightful
economic loss of putting an embargo on
travel during a good portion of the year,
or else compelling all beasts of burden
to consume vital force and exhaust them
selves unnecessarily . It, will be a saving
to be counted by millions of dollars an
nually, and it will be a marvellous gain
socially and morally as well as industri
ally, when wo shall have such scientific
road making in the United States that the
rural dweller will possess, as far ;as pri
vate conveyance is concerned, the same
advantages that are enjoyed by the resi
dents of cities. —St. Paul l'ioneer-I'ress.
Museums a-* Vestibules of the Churches
Will not the Sunday opening of muse
ums interfere with worship, cut the
cords of religion, and send the com
munity adrift on a sea of materialism
and skepticism? There are doubtless
some who sincerely think this would bo
the result. But the fear is groundless.
Such a movement would, in the long
run, fill the churches, Increase the active
forces of morality and religion, and
create a predisposition in favor of church
and church methods that would be irre
sistible. The chief support of the church
Of Christ must be found among the
masses. It the people think the church
is forgetful of them or irreponsive to their
needs, then the existing chasm between
church-goers and non-church-goers will
widen. Encourage attendance at church
in the morning and open the museums
in the afternoon. The museums will
thus be transformed into the vestibules
of churches. Let clergymen and laymen
speak at gatherings in these places. Who
can overestimate the beneficial results?
"What better pulpit than the platform of
ait-gallery or music-hall? What better
texts than marble statue of god and hero,
splendid picture, curious column from
ancient days, fossil of extinct animal,
and model of temple and shrine? What
nobler preachers than whole-souled
artists, inspired singers, musicians, rev
erent lovers ot science? We need all
these aids in the religious life. Why do
we neglect them? Why discrown these
spiritual kings and crucify these saviors
of a darkened world?— Rev. Charles It.
Katon, D. 1)., in North American Re
view.
The Homely Woman.
fiomely women are always more enter
taining than pretty specimens of the lair
sex. The latter rely on their beauty to
carry them through the world, and it
generally does until they get married,
when it commonly fails them. The
homely girl, knowing she has no beauty
to rely on, goes to work and improves
her mind ; sho learns some accomplish
ment, becomes a clever artist or pianist,
reads a good deal and so learns to con
verse readily and well. She is better
company than the pretty girl, for the
beamy does not ,think it worth her
trouble to bo entertaining, as she has spent
?'' h\' r efforts in trying to look pretty,
mo beauty may make a good wife, but
the chances are that she will learn noth
ing alter marriage and so will soon be
come dull and uninteresting. The ugly
girl, with a little brains, stands as lair a
chance of getting a good husband as her
pretty sister and a much better prospect
ol having a happy home.
