TAINED TO BE COLONISTS. English Women Prepared for Life in Far-Off Lands. _ * The intimate relatidn “existing be- .tweenEngland aud her golonies is {l- -dustrated by the fact that a Colonial annex has been opened at the Horti- eultural College at Swanley, Kent, for the express purpose of fitting women for some of the varied conditions of Colonial life. The “Colonial course” is a year long, and is thoroughly practti- eal and exceedingly comprehensive. Students are taught fruit packing, jam making and bottling, dairy work, with | some instruction on cow keeping, poul- try and bee. keeping, .. carpentering,. cooking, laundry, household manage- ment, plain sewing and’ dressmaking, simple bookkeeping,.Colonial hygiene and sanitation, first afd and simple nursing, native languages and ‘horti- | eulture, which includes planting, seed sowing, budding, grafting, pruning, to- gether with useful hints on ento- mology. Reed’s Claim for a Pension. ‘One day, when a discussion on pen- sions was dragging its slow length along, Mr. Reed, who was in the very picture of health, amused a coterie of friends in the cloakroom by giving *# Teason why he should have a pen- sion. It ran something like this: “I had never been able to make more than $500 or $600 a year,” said he with a chuckle, “till I was appointed Act- ing Assistant Paymaster of the United States Navy at a salary of $1,400, with board, lodgings, uniform and two servants to wait on me. That induced an extravagant style of living, which I have kept up ever since, and which has cost me thousands and thousands of dollars—for which the government ought, in good conscience, to recom- pense me.”—Washington Times. An Up-to-Date Shave. + The antiseptic shaving saldon “isthe latest achievement in hygienic sci- ence, says Tit-Bits. The victim is seated in an enameled iron chair, with. his neck and shoulders enveloped in a rubber pad..that has been dipped in an antiseptic solution. Previously the razor, soap dish and brush have been. sterilized by half an hour’s hard boiling. Nothing is allowed to touch the face that has not been either sterilized or disinfected antiseptically. | Even the finger tips of the operator are dipped in a solution. where towels are kept are microbe- proof. American Brewery in Ghent. An American brewery has’ been es- tablished at Ghent, Belgium. The en- tire piant of the American brewery, with the exception of some copper ves- sels, hasbeen brought from’ America. The nine glass-engmeled, steel tanks, each weighing 5,500 pounds empty an holding 135 hecioliters (3,445 gallons) when full, were likewise sent from America. The beer never comes in contact with the atmosphere. Steril- ized air only is admitted, under per- fect regulation, during fermentation. The yearly output will be about 300,- 900 gallons.

A good sleep works wonders that tired feeling. “Charity begins at home,” and in half the cases it stays there. Pretty much everything has beon syndicated but common sense. All men were born equal, but you'd better not say it down in Alabama. Some people carry a heavy stock of wisdom that never yields a divi- dend. We laugh at the weakness of others, and yet we object to others laughing at ours. Bluff goes a long way. There's many a quitter who has never been _ for made and carried the application was | shown .up. You can’t always tell how fast a horse is by his looks, It’s easier to spot a fast man. It’s a good time now to buy your Christmas presents and turn over that new leaf. Swear off. Don’t stop just before you get there. Often you lack but one step of your goal without knowing it. i Show your interest even if you are not interested. From a coarse, world- ly standpoint it will pay. A pretty face, a graceful figure and the brains to govern them make the | rarest jewel in the world. The man who fails and then suc- ceeds is more fortunate than the man who succeeds and then fails. Some people seem selfish because they have no one but themselves to consider. Warm up to some one.

Brilliancy Versus Plodding. “Some men,” said the original phil- ‘osopher, “see’ more than others see at first sight and then devote so much time and energy to the task of being pleased with their own brilliancy that they miss all the benefit of the sober and. maturer second thought © that comes to those less gifted.” A Finger Clock.
