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. _ There is a groat difference between and falling water.

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. Inscrutable Mystery. ’’Mamma, - ’ asked* the little girl, peering in between two uncut leaves of the magazine, “how did they ever get the printing in there':’”—Chica . eo Tribune. . , 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. dirccily up tho lßtlo ' •? on 1. 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 tle Bear growling under his breath, “Hoogb! Tew an heap plenty—wo kill heap!”—Frank Welles Galkins in at. Nicholas. 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 ; lican. Never risk a joke, even tho least offensive in its nature and the most ; common, with a person who is not well bred and possessed of sense to comprehend it.—Bruyere. T. E.
