A New Yorker has Just finished school and recelvod a diploma at the age of seventy. New York is producing some bright boys. The Harvard professor who declared kissing Is a perfectly safo pastime must bo like millions of others, happily married, or going to bo. Cotton goods are believed to be going up. but not sufficiently to prevent thronds of that material from finding lodgment In certain all-wool garments. As soon as our young woman stu dents take to robbing trains and i bribing legislators there will be a loud j call for the professor and his methods. , l England takes the census in one ho-ir at a cost of $100,000. In the United States the census takes a month I and costs n.OW,00. They do some j things better abroad. A St. Louis statistician says that In Chicago there is a larger percentage of happy homes than In any other big city. How could It bo otherwise with such adorable women?

The boy who Is trying to make his way across the country on roller skates appears to have an exaggerated Idea of what tho promoters of tho cement shows are accomplishing In tho way of results. The figures showing the April fire loss In the United States and Canada carry with them some consolation. The total was $1S.0S1.S0o. which was less by more than a million dollars than In the corresponding month last year, and far below the aggregate for April, 100S. which waa $26.000,000. The first four months of 1010 also reveal n decrease, the totals being: 190S, $90.&01.100: 1909. $72.000,700; 1010, $67.222.100. The falling off is not sufficient to Inspire too strong hope of permanent Improvement, but tho trend is in the right direction and furnishes cause for encouragement The results of the parliamentary elections In France as finally established by repolllngB and revision of returns leave the present government more firmly established In power than before and afford little hope of nny successful reactionary movement.

Aeronautics Boosted at Fort Omaha War School. Col. W. A. Glassford, Commanding Officer, Has Spent Life In Signal Work Studies Methods In Europe. Omaha, Neb. Ballooning and a general knowledgo of aeronautics in the United States army is receiving n great boost from the balloon school now open at Fort Omaha, tho headquarters of the signal corps of tho nnny. Hundrods of officers from tho diffon-nt nnny posts aro being given tho Instruction and in groups of from 25 to 50 are being taught to navigate tho air. The course Includos tho building of balloons, Inllatlon, the ascent, lllght and descent. During the lllght Instruction Is glvon In handling the balloon and In searching for deslrod air currents. At Fort Omaha the government has ereoted tho largest balloon houso In the world and has Installed and equipped tho only plant on tho American continent for securing hydrogen by tho electrolysis of wator. From this plant hydrogen, under enormous pressure, is shipped in steol tuboa to other posts In different portions of the country. Tho feature of the present school Is the Imparted German balloon. It is so built In sections that should nny Bection be torn by a shot or by accident, the great bag would not collnpso and fall. The "German" Is more than one hundred feet In height and Is guided und controlled by a rudder composed of numorous small parachutes. The army dirigible No. 1, weather balloons, spherlcals and balloons of numerous shapes make tholr home In tho big balloon house. Col. W. A. Glnssford. commanding officer at Fort Omaha, has spent his life In signal work and was for sevCol. W. A. Glassford oral years stationed In Europe aa the representative of this government In studying aeronautics ns cractlsed In the great camps of the armies of England. France, Germany and Italy THE SELF-EDUCATED WOMAN A Library of Good Books 'lor a Corner Out of Earshot of the Tea Table. When all is said and done, those ot us who arc really educated aro selfeducated. Tho best that schools and colleges can do Is to teach us to read and tell us what books to road and perhaps help a little to form our taste. For those of us who have, however, missed schools nnd colleges, who have been busy nnd perhaps won our lulsuro too late, there Is still education near at hand and cheap. A half-dozen great books much read, a half-dozen or a dozen good books constantly returned to and thoroughly known, will bo an education to anyone. It has so often boon said that the Bible and Shakespeare furnish a complete education, thnt It Is a truism to ropeat It. For devotional books every one, Protestant no less than Catholic, should own that wonderful book, "Imitation of Christ," and Cnthollc no less than Protestant should own a "Theologien Germnnlca." Then, because devotion Is not always at while heat "The Sayings of Eplctetus" and tho "Thoughts of Marcus Aurellus" Bhould be kept for strengthening and quiet For the poets, after Shakespeare, a Milton and a Dante (preferably In the little Temple edition, with tho Italian and English sido by side), a Shelley and a Keats, and Palgrave's "Golden Treasury." For amusement, Bunyan's "Pilgrim's Progress" nnd Defoe's "Robinson Crusoe," Fielding's "Tom. Jonos," Mies Austen's "Pride and Prejudice," Charlotte Bronte's ".Inno Eyre." Thackeray's "Vanity Fair," Dlckcn's "Dnvid Copperfield." George Eliot's "Mill on the Floss" and Meredith's "Egoist" will serve well to give a good Idea of the English novel. This entire library could bo bought for Icbs than $25, and would bo not only an education, hut a mine of haic plnoss nnd Joy. If one carea to extend one's vlow a llttlo bit one mny add Klngley's Greek Heroes and Plutarch's Lives. Harper's Bazar.
