NATURE AS A CHILD'S TEACHER.
Kain to the City’s Little Ones Is Only
Wetness Broken Loose.
Rov. Charles H. Parkhurst, D. D.,
writes upon “Memories of Our Child
hood Homes” in The Ladies’ Home
Journal, and emphasizes tlio neces
sity of surrounding children with
bright pictures and cheery furnish
ings, as the mental photographs they
make in early years aro the ones
that never fade, but last and remain
vivid through life. Nature, too, has
a big part to play in the teachings of
the youth. It take3 a good deal to
make a good home. It needs some
thing oven beside father and moth
er, and an open fire, and the cat on
the hearth. The first element in the
home is the house itself, which needs
to be distinctly different from any
other house in sight. Then there
needs to be some land around a house
before it can be “real liomoy. ” It
gives play room for the eyes as well
as for the feet.
A wide range of solemn woods will
do more for a child in a week than
yellow bricks and dirty paving
stones will do for him in a year or
ever do for him. It is a great tiling
for a child to grow up within earshot
of a babbling brook. Tlierois a kind
of musicalness of spirit that will bo
como his in that way that he will
never bo able to acquire from a piano
teacher or a fiddling master. Thi3
wide range of prospect will also com
panion him with the bright and tlio
more earnest moods of the great
mother earth on whoso bosom ho is
being nourished. He will have op
portunity to seo the days brighten
in the east in the morning, and his
soul will unconsciously absorb some
of the glory of the setting sun.
Children in the city hardly ever
seo the sun conic up or go down. It
simply grows light about tho time
they have to get up and grows dark
a dozen or so hours later. To a child
in the country there is likewise op
portunity for him to see it rain.

a thi*und to he used at the religious fes-
tivals and sacrifices. Male llamas
only were killed. The wool belonged
to the inca, and was stored in the
government depositories, and dealt
out according as tho people’s wants
required. In this way they were pro-
Tided with warm clothing. When
they had worked up enough wool in
to clothing for themselves, they were
then employed in working up ma
terial for tho inca. Tho distribution
of tho wool and superintendence of
its manufacture were in tho bands of
officers appointed for the .purpose,
No one was allowed to ho idle. klle T
ness was a crime and was severely
punished,
All tho mines belonged to tlio inca,
and were worked for bis bench t. The
various employments were usually
jn the hands of a few;, and became
hereditary; what tho father was,
that the son became. A great part of
tho agricultural products was stored
in granaries scattered up and down
tho country, and was dealt out to
tho people as required. It will thus
be seen that there was no chance tor
a man to becorno rich, neither could
ho become poor. The spirit of specu
lation had no existence there.—
Chambers’ Jpurual,
Angler’s Odd Catch
One of the oddest things a fisher*
man ever caught was a young livo
pig. This haul was made by Charles
Johns, in the Delaware, near Bris
tol, Pa. He was fishing for plain fish,
when ho saw the pig swimming
down stream, evidently almost ex
hausted. The pig seized the hook
which he threw toward it, and was
helped and steered ashore by the
fisherman. —Fishing Gazette.
Earthquakes.
Between Jan. 1 of the year 1137
and Jan. 1, 1806, over 7,000,000 per
sons perished in earthquakes. The
greatest mortality in any one shock
or series of shocks was at Yesso,
Japan, in 1703, when 191,000 persons
perished in threo days and nights.

, STILL-HUNTING FOR BUFFALO.
The Indians Disguised Themselves In Wolf
Felts and Crept on the Herds.
Little Bear came to my tent just
as I had finished my steak, biscuit
and coffee-. Ho brought two wolf
skin disguises, which I had before
seen in liis teepoo. Each was made
of two wolf pelts sewed together,
with mounted nose and tail, and
there were armholes with short skin
. sleoves, and leggings for the thighs,
which came nearly down to tlio
knees, tho whelo covering fastened
to the body with deerskin thongs.
Ho liad before promised to take
me on a “wolf bunt” after buffalo,
and bo now 7 put on tlio largest of tlio
coverings and maneuvered about in
front of my tent, showing tlio vari
ous attitudes of the wolf in sham
bling along, in trotting and in
sneaking upon its prey.
His squaw, who was wiolding her
wevajaba (fleshing knife) upon an
upturned buffalo pelt pinned to tlio
ground with wooden pegs, stopped
her’work and grinned approval. Ho
certainly mimicked tlio wolf well,
and the disguise, excepting tho logs
and the size, was perfect.
“Hoogh!” he said, when lie had
shown me how to act in crawling up
to game. “Wo go hunt um tewau
that way,” pointing to the north-
I west, up the creek.
1 I was glad to go upon a still hunt,
I for, to tell tho truth, the mixed
| burly burly of the usual Ponca
: method and its useless dangers did
j not recommend it to mo when I bad
had time to reflect after tlio excite
ment was over;
When Little Boar and I mounted
our ponies and rode out that morn
ing, tho camp was in an uproar, as
usual in tho preparation for a hunt.
A scout had como in with news of a
: big herd to the eastward, and tlio
Indians were running in ponies, sad
i diing and cinching them on all
! hands, and thero was much bucking
and plunging among tlio wild and
skittish ones, as usual. Squaws were
hustling about at tho command of
their lords and masters, and young
j lads, in half leggings and short
; shirts, woro rushing to and fro,
; making a groat parade of helping to
get tho hunters started.
Littlo Boar must have told his
leaders of Ilia proposed hunt with
i me, for no one paid tho slightest at
■feffion to our going out.

grunted with huge sat
isfaction, and gavo mo fo understand
in hurried worda of Ponca and pi
geon English that tho big herds
were coining down from the north.
Wo hustled our ponies into a ra
vine hear at hand, and tied thorn to
some hull berry hushes, Thou, car
rying our disguises and guns, tho
chief with his bow and arrows at
his hack, wo slipped down the ra
vine into tho crock channel, keeping
entirely out of sight of tlio fiord,
The wind was fairly in our ravor,
and wo kept along tho hod of tlio
stream, in which ran a littlo tric
kling brook at tho bottom, until we
reached tho mouth of a dry run
leading across tho valley and
through tho middlo of tho fiord.
There wero such runs and ravines}
cutting back into tho hills ovary
half mile or so.
Up this gully w’o went at a jog
trot, bending low, until it became su
shallow that we could begin to seq
the buifalo upon tho hills above.
Tho chief then squatted gnd mo
tioned mo down. \Yo put on tliq
wolfskins, ho taking tho largest,
for, despite his name, ho was a largo
and powerfully made man.
Adjusting tho eyeholes so that
we could sec plainly, wo crawled
out upon the open ground upon our
hands and knees. Almost tho first
thing that happened to mo was to
get one of my knees filled with cag
tus spikes, and while I writhed about
trying to pall thorn out I hoard Lit

Tho Newspaper In School.
Tho growing influence of newspa
pers in school education was illus
trated at a conference of tho Public
Education association in Now York
when Miss Josephine C. Locke, su
pervisor of drawing iii tho public
schools of Chicago, told how the
children are being trained to search
the columns of tho press in working
on topics of a public nature. It
should he one of the functions of ev
ery school to teach the children how
to read a newspaper to tho best ad-’
vantage—and also what newspapers
should be read.—Springfield Repuh

Never risk a joke, even tho least
offensive in its nature and the most

well bred and possessed of sense to
comprehend it.—Bruyere.
