Lewis and I !ark, who encountered a magnificent smell while ascending toe Missouri river over a century ago. and reportecflaler that the locality possessed great natu ral resources for the packing house business. This proved to be the cise and millions of hogs have met an un timely, but scientific end. in South Omaha, which is connected with the city proper by a steady and highly nutritious southwest wind. Omaha was first settled half a cen tury ago, tut remained a village until the orid tried to crowd into Ne braska in the eighties. Then it arose and became a city at the rate of tne ward per diem. In 1890. it had 140, 00C people according to the cenjs j takers who were not only loyal Oma hogs, but who were getting paid on the piecework system. In the next ten years, Omaha held a census and the government changed its census super visors. The result was, appalling. Omaha could only muster 102,000 peo ple in 1900 and Kansas City began Retropolizing for the Missouri Valley. Omaha now has 215,000 citizens, while South Omaha which impinges on the city from the south, has 26,000 cit izens and 27.146 distinct odors. Omaha distributes farm machinery, groceries, automobiles and culture to the people of Nebraska and vicinity and also returns them their hogs and "cattle done up in neat packages. Most ' Oi the trans-continental traijis f ram tct west disintegrate at umana also, while tourists from the crehulous Eait usually leave the cars in this city and spend a few hours hunting for Indfans and buffalo cutlets.

Albert stopped suddenly in bis tor rent of talk ovecomer by the appar- ent hopelessness of getting it all out, and then plunged In again. Impelled by the Interest of his experiences. Hie father and mother, looking into his glowing face, were made glad by the enthusiastic onrush of his words, which showed them that he had had one of the happiest, busiest and most profitable afternoons of his life, bring ing borne with him a wealth of treas ure that he would use and enjoy all through the coming years. "What if we had had tu?h lessons wLen we went to school?" asked th frther of the mother when Albert had Kpne to tell his chum about it, "and have you any idea how far it is to the telegraph pole?" Albert's mother had rot, but she was glad that her sor. was receiving an education more valu able and practical than hers had been. Arithmetic does not arouse ordinari ly much enthusiasm in boys and girls, but those who had that particular les son on that particular day, and ter pens like it before or smcp. are im- J bred with similar mathematical zeal. Work Made Important. Outdoor arithmetic is an idea, of Cbarles M. Lamprey, head of the de partment of historv, and the h'storv of education at the Boston Normal School and also the director of the c . .Vartin Tiodel srhooi. whee students , " a the Normal get tnetr nrsx training ..' a x i l with the children. He believes in mo-, tivating school work, contendme: that instead of eivine the pupils some un interesting lesson to learn, or problem to solve, because it is ne"eisary to them as educated beings and may be, useful to them at some future time al thoueh they can see no possitle Mse for it now. their work should be made of vital importance to them now. That is why he sends them out in the Fen way to learn alithmetir. and down to i Winthrop to study geography. Win : throp Beach is bis enough to give a ! concept of the sea with bays and in iletf. islands ani isthmuses: it has r. ihigh tide and low tide and there is ! plenty of opportunity to study effects !of the elacial ases. An island is an I island, but it mav be a number of oth er things as well. ! In the sohoolbook it is a stupid defi nition that is hard to pet right, but otit there in the bay, its sandy bea-h rlittering in the sunshine, trees wav ing and birds hovering over their branches, while all around the sea rip , pies and sparkles, it is quite a differ ent thing. An added interest is ac Jnv.ired when it is learned that once ! tii-re were no green trees and sineing MTds and no vegetation in the vicinity. , The story of the formation of the rocks and smooth round pebbles seems like romance when the very object de scribed is before their eyes. The ! books that were so dry and heavy are ; returned to eagerlv. for they put into definite words and brief form all the wonders of the afternoon.

Then the teacher produces a surveyor's tape or a yard . stick and the correct measurement is taken. This is compared with the estimates. Immediately the boys or girls want to try the experiment in an other direction and fchey keep it up for some time with growing ac curacy on the part of the pupils. Com paratively few people can tell how much an acre is or how far a mile, but there is should be unable to do so.
