Every member of a community
and especially every parent should
take a deep interest in the public
school. It is not enough to pay
your school tax without complaining,
or to know that the teachers are
qualified, nor is it even enough to
keep your children in school reg
ularly. If you are really interested
in the subject as you should be, you
should visit the school regularly and
persistently. Few people have any
idea what an incentive it is to both
teacher and scholar to know that
parents and outsiders are taking a
lively interest in their work. We be
lieve the "little folks" at school ap
preciate such interest more perhaps
than the larger ones. Still the
effect is not lost on any of them,
and we hope every parent will take
a hint from this and place the pub
lic school on their visiting list.
WOMAN'S KINGDOM.
Every woman who takes con
science for her guide has a right to
feel that home is peculiarly wo
man's kingdom, knowing that all
ove, all pure thoughts all religion
and governments, if one would have
them flourish, must have their roots
beneath its altar. Let no wife, who
would be loved, honored and happy,
forget that home duties must ever
stand first. No matter what high
ambitious aspiration may have im
pressed her before marriage, or how
high she may be conscious her tal
ents and influences are capable of
reaching, when that solemn vow is
taken that makes the twain one for
'better or worse" before all else,
she must give all the energy and
love she possesses to building a per
fect home, and she must never lose
sight of this high vocation. She
must be its. mistress, but never its
slave. That she has made it im
maculate in cleanliness and resplen
dent in beauty is not enough. She
must feed the love and truth which
should unitedly govern it. What
power or dignity can reach higher?
What is the ability to sway larger
audiences over a home with such
skill that husband and children shall
rise up and call her blessed? To
be the ruling spirit in such a position
is a more sacred honor than to rule
an empire. "Woman's rights 1
Has man any higher or more noble?
And when husband and wife see eye
to eye and heart to heart, onr. in the
interests of home, they have reach
ed as near perfection as we are al
lowed to hope for while on earth.
BE WHAT YOU SEEM.
Don't think because you are fresh
from the hands of your tailor and
your barber, that you will pass for
a gentleman unless you are one.
You might carry the perfumed roses
about ycu for ages without once be
ing mistaken for a rose. Fine clothes
and costly jewelry do not convert a
rough into a gentleman any more
than a stovepipe hat and a cigar
make a man of a monkey. A few
smart, well learned quotations form
eminent authors will not convey the
impression that you are conversant
with literature. You are apt to be
come scorched in the flames you kin
dle, for your literary companions
will soon sound your shallow depths,
and your ignorance will appear more
glaring than before, An extensive
library docs not make a lawyer ; a
sanctimonious face a minister, an
elaborated sign a doctor, or a pair of
wines an angl. The world judges
us by what we seem. It docs not
accept a few flashes of wit and wis
dom as the evidence of superior
knowledge. If your mental attain
ments are not appreciated by the
public, it is a sensible conclusion to
arrive at that you are striving to be
something which nature and educa
tion have not fitted you for. The
world, generally, ii quick to acknowl
edge true merit and genius, and
having no grudge against you, per
sonally, it will appreciate your ef
forts if they are at all praise-worthy
or meritorious. True excellence in
anything is only attained by un
remitting labor. If you would be
that which you are not, bend all the
energies of heart and Drain to the
accomplishment of your desire
Whatever place your ambition
prompts you to select as your field
for future labor, however lofty and
difficult of access the height may be,
fit yourself for it by slow and, labor
ious process of study and toil. Be
gin at the very bottom round of the
ladder, lay the foundation firm and
secure ; build your structure of future
greatness upon a thorough knowl
edge of your life work in all its
bearings. In fact, be what you
seem, and seem to be nothing but
what you are.
THE GOOD HOUSEWIFE.
You look at the housewife who
has a place for her things, and these
things in their places, and you find
a woman who is systematic in her
work; and when she needn. Anything
she can put her hands on it in a
moment. She plans and calculates
whenever there is to be extra work,
extra cooking, extra washing etc.,
and she knows beforehand just what
there is to do, and what she wants
to do it with. Her work moves
along like clockwork, and when the
clock strikes tweWe she is ready to
put tbe victuals on the table. The
men are not hindered they eat
their dinner and get out of the way,
and her work goes on according to
programme, and noboby's time is
wasted by her procrastination.- She
is on time, the glory of herhusband,
the beloved of her children, the ad
mired of all who know her. And
this same woman, so exact in her
doings, gets more time to rest and
read and instruct her children in the
paths of right and the social duties
they owe to all. Ladies, we hope
you are of this class receiving the
blessings of your husband, and the
praise of all who know you.
Poverty is uncomfortable, but
nine cases out of ten, the best thing
that can happen to a young man is
to be tossed overboard and compell
ed to sink or swim for himself.

to tho quaint, colorful little lady
Ktiu. taking atupufactlon' for ac
quiescence. Ilfifld a bundlo of costumes
from tho floor aud pattered toward tho
dressing room.
In a vecotid aho was back. Instead
of tho cherry blossom allk she was
nwnthed In a heavy kimono whoso
midnight luster was glorified by gold
en storks grarely reposing on onn log
against a background of perpetually
rising suns.
"Ktsu rer fine lady of mikado's
court," ahe said proudly, making n
deep genuflection.
St. Ives' eyes took In greedily tho
lithe figure, tho email, flower-llko face,
and heuvy colls of scented hair Ho
stared till tho "rer fine lady" become
disturbed; she dropped to tho floor
In a pretty nttltudo and nlth childish
dignity and directness nnld- "lidy
play samlsen, rer honorable great ar
tist pleas to paint!"
And so, from day to day. SL Ivca
reveled In color.
Ktsu had been posing for him for
two weeks, and tho studio, with Its
litter of Kaat Indian brlc-a brac. ugly
Chinese Idols, and rare tapestries, was
permeated with tho faint fragrance
that clung to hr klrnonoa.
To-day Ktau had arrlred at the stu
dlo early. When be inserted his own
latch key, a strange, eerlo murmuring
reached his ears, and as he threw
wide the door ho beheld Ktsu prono
on her face before an Image of Ilud
dha be had picked op In the orient
She waa praying aoftly and rapidly
Gone was the childlike naivete and
Impenetrable calm of the little Japan
cse model. A atrango exaltation
breathed from every fold of her silken
garmontn, and she hurriedly tucked
hor tiny flag the emblem of Japan
Into her sleeve aa ahe mounted the
model's throne.
"Well, Ettiu, I se by the papers
your country Is recalling Its subjects
there's to bo war. It aeema!"
"Yea, august highness!" replied Kt
au; "the sacred one has spoken bat-
py they who can obey I"
Sho waa atrangwly aaxlous to be
gone tho day'a work was apollod aud
Bt. Ives released her.
Lifting a curtain that concealed an
old cabinet to get Ktsu's customary
fee, ho stood appalled. The cabinet
had been forced open, papers and color
tube lay alt about, but every penny
tbe cabinet held had Tanlshedt
Qono, too, wua Etsu, and without
the bit of allror for which aho always
waited.
In an Instant St. Ires was half way
down the stairs; a second and he
gained tbe atrvet There, like nn an I
ranted water color, was Ktsu, two
blocks away.
Ktsu meltod Into a narrow doorway
of Chinatown, and atlll ho followed
Almost at the threshold of nit Inner
room ahe was met by a alcndur young
Japanese equipped for a journey.
"Did you get HI" he fairly biased.
"Quick, (ulck; tbe son of heaven
calls"
"Here, Hoo!" Sho pressed a hand
ful of loose bills Into his outstretched
hand. "ICawannon guard you and
bring a glorious death."
Jostling St Ives In tho dark paasago
Hojo rushed forth from her he lovod
to tho great red death of a Japaneso
soldier who falls In battle fighting for
tho emperor.
