Gerhart; Olym- but confesses to a longing for a home ceptance—Ignorance is Handi- ; cap—Time to Help Yourself. Seveiity-five per cent of the busi- ness men in this country declare that the chief educational need of their employes is a better knowledge of English, including spelling, grammar and punctuation and the use of words in general. 3 Stenographers crowd to answer an advertisement announcing a position paying $4 a week, because they are not qualified to demand higher wag- es. Thousands of stenographers and typewriters trained in ~the art of making “pot-hooks” and tapping the typed keys are eking out an exist- ence on meager wages. These statements nave a direct bearing upon the proposition that The Pioneer is offering you, the New ‘Websterian 1912 Dictionary, Illus- trated, and give reason for the popu- larity of the distribution. Get out of the $4 class. Or, if you are not so poorly paid as that, at least become busy and take advantage of the opportunity which is bringing hundreds to the Diction- ary Department every day. Six coupons clipped from consecu- tive issues of The Pioneer and the small expense bonus specified in the display advertisement on another page of this issue do the trick, and permit you to turn the tables upon what you have regarded as misfor- tune when it was only your own ig- norance weighing upon you and the limitations of your vocabulary bind- ing you down. - Good authority as to the need of education is Director Edward Ryn- earson of the Pittsburg High School. ‘When reorganizing the commercial department of high schools and in- augurating the night school system, he wrote to most of the representa- tive business men of Pittsburg, ask- ing them to co-operate by suggestions as to what subjects of instruction should be given the greatest atten- tion. This is what he reports: “Of those replying, 75 per cent consider English (including spell- ing) essential, 58 per cent bookkeep- ing, 50 per cent penmanship, 28 per cent shorthand,” ete., showing that the lamentable lack of English- was considered to be deserving of first at- tention. Asked what defects they noticed most frequently among their em- ployees the great majority replied that they desired: “Better training in spelling, grammar and punctuation.” What is the answer? The New Websterian 1912 Diction- ary, Ilustrated, does it. This Dictionary is not published by the original publishers of Webster’s Dictionary or by their successors. It has been revised and brought up to the present date in accordance Wwith the best authorities from the greatest universities, and is publish- ed by the well known Syndicate Pub- lishing Co. of New York City. Duke’s Visit to Winnipeg.

Arkansas City, Ark., July 11.— Unless Governor Donaghey changes his mind at the eleventh hour and grants a commutation, W. S. Rhea, the young white planter whose case has attracted wide attention, will be hanged tomorrow in the Desha coun- ty jail. Rhea continues to maintain that he is not guilty of the crime of which he was convicted-and says he will make a speech on the gallows declaring his innocence. Rhea was convicted at Pine Bluff last October of murder in the first degree, it being charged that he led a mob of negroes who shot and killed Constable Vital Orchard on the night of May 13, 1911, while the officer had in custody Grant Sanders, a ne- gro wanted for murder in Saline county, but who had been working on the plantation managed by Rhea. TALLEST IOWAN COMING. With the great Patterson shows, which exhibit here next week is an exceedingly tall man, who is a native <t Centerville, Towa. He is the tall- est man Iowa ever produced. August Krause is his name and his father was & German farmer who settled on & homestead two miles east of Center- ville in 1852. On this homestead in 1865 young August, the tall, was born. He is 7 feet 7 inches in height and weighs 217 pounds. His entire wearing apparel has to be made to order, and it costs him ten dollars more to have a suit made than the average size mortal. Even his hose have to be made to order and he has to buy six dozen socks at a time.

MANY TO EXHIBIT. From present indications, the pre- diction made early in the season that fifty of Minnesota’s counties will be represented at the 1912 state fair seems likely: to be realized. Superintendent C. P. Craig has no- tified the secretary’s office that repre- sentatives of forty-six counties’ have already definitely decided to bring exhibits to -the state fair and four more are favorably censidering the proposition. This assures the fair of a wonderful exhibition of the resourc- es of Minnesota and will fill.to over- flowing the immense Agricultural building and the annex, which is now being built. The following counties have already secured space: Northern Section.

ROPE FOR ALPINE CLIMBERS It Ie of Speclal Manufacture and Com- bines Strength, FlexIbility and_ Lightness. ‘The rope used by Alpine climbers is of special manufacture, combining &g far as possible the differing quall- ties of strength, flexibility and light- ne Three qualities are in general use, being made from Sisal, Italian and Manilla hemps respeotively, and occasionally, when cost is not consid- ered, of silk. The latter, though very light and strong, is not so durable as the others. That which finds most favor among Britlsh mountaineers ls known as Buckingham’s Alpine rope; it 1a made of the best Manilla hemp. In the year 1864, Mr. McLeish re- calls, a committee of the Alpine club made tests upon a number of ropes suitable for mountaineering. .Of the two that were approved one was made of Itallan hemp and the other of Manilla. They both had a break- ing strain of two tons and sustalned the welght of a twelve stone man after falling from a helght of ten feet. Non-mountaineers have some- times considered this insufficient, but it 18 highly problematical whether the human anatomy could survive the sudden compression of & thin -rope arising from any.greater fall—Fry's Magazine. 5 STILL OBSERVE MARKET DAY Canadlan Citles Preserve a Worthy Old- Institution Brought Over From Great Britain. “Market day,” for ages an institu- tion in Hngland, still exists in certain locelities, and may still be studied with Interest by the tourlst who vis- its Hallfax, Nova Sootia, or Charlotte town, Prince Hdward Island, where large enclosures and roomy market houses are maintained for the benefit of the country people and such eitl- zens as have established a regular market business. Everything from live stock to & bouquet of flowers may be brought here for sale, the owner being allotted a suitable place and charged a small fee for his accommo dation, and while most of the market people are far from belng especially rustic in their dress or speech, the va. rlety and sometimes the peculiarity of their offerings still suggest the im- portant part which the English mar ket and its legal control played in the local and business life of three centuries ago.—Charles Winslow Hall, in National Magazine. _— How Rome Was Saved. “How are you on anclent history?” Inquired the Wood street man. “Fine,” declared the sage of Smith- fleld street. “Ask me anything you want to know.” . “I was trying to recall the facts about those geese that cackled and thus save Rome.” “I remember the episode. You see, Rome was a very rich city in anclent days, filleq with gold and precious stones. Some invaders had gathered in hopes of getting big loot.” “I gee” “But when they heard the geese cackling, they thought they'd better grab the geese and let the gold go. The cost of living was just as high then as it is now.” - | “I comprehend.” ’ “They made off. with the geese and thus Rome was saved.”—Pittsburgh Post. Discipline of Poverty.

Tea and coffee should not be given to a child under seven, and the longer the delay the better. A good cocoa is often enjoyed, milk and wafer and di- luted condensed milki may also be giv- en, and, very cautiously, plain soda water. It should never be forgotten that milk is a food and not a drink, and that plenty of water flushes the kidneys. There is no reason why a healthy child should not drink when Don’t Forget TO INCLUDE WITH THE OTHER GOOD THINGS YOU PACK IN YOUR PICNIC BASKET IT WILL GREATLY ADD TO THE PLEASURE OF YOUR OUTING “Leads them All” ‘ Theo.
