One practical lesson that ought to be taught in every school is that a lead pencil should never be put in the mouth. More important than the study of algebra, the study of rhetoric or the study of literature, is the lesson that a lead pencil should never be stuck in the mouth. Nearly every scholar has this habit and a very pernicious habit it is. If the school teacher would insist upon this as a rule and correct every child that has this filthy habit it could be broken up. People who have passed through school and have formed the habit of putting the pencil to the lips every time it is used are beyond hope But with children something could be done. The pencil does not write so well after it has been wet as before, but there seems to be a notion that in order to make the pencil write it must be moistened with the lips. Tin's is not true. Probably everybody knows it is not true. In public places, people who are very squeamish, ordinarily, will pick up a pencil that has been used by hundreds of other people, and the first thing they do is to put it in the mouth. It is a habit that ought to be broken up. Every school teacher should take up the crusade. Pupils should be told frequently never to put the pencil in their mouths. When caught doing it, some sort of punishment should be inflicted upon them until they get it into their heads that the practice is ridiculous and dangerous to health. While the graphite that composes, the so-called lead of the pencil is not of itself a very harmful substance to bo taken into the mouth yet the point of the pencil is necesj sarily dirty. - Those people, who are so afraid of microbes .ought to remember that no better carrier of microbes exists than a lead pencil that has been sucked by Tom, Dick and Harry. MONEY AND MOLES More Profit Mad? cn Those Animals Than in Horsss Eig Demand. The average farmer prebably is not aware of the fact that ordinary mules sell for $10 per head more than horses, but such is the case, and the price has been gradually rising for a number of years. There has never been what would be called an overproduction of mules while the market has often been unable to fully supply the trade. The ability of the mule to endure great heat has brought it into most general use in the ' Southern states, where large farms are devoted entirely to raising them. The mule matures more quickly than ' the horse, and can be placed on the market from one to two years sooner than the average horse; this means a lareg profit to the producer and a quicker return for the investment. A well fed mule can be worked at two years with safety, if proper judgment; is exercised by the driver. They are-much less nervous than the horse, thus net so liable to accident and blemish. A blemish Jhat would make a horse unsalable would take but a trifle from the price of a mule. They sell simply for the-Work theyT seem able to do, rather than for their appearance. -The mule buyer carries his measuring slick and gives probably $5 above the regular price for each inch the youug mule measures above the regular height' four feet at weaning timev . .i.- e Large herds of f0 and 100 are safely kept in a small enclosure They are much less subject to disease than I horses,.., when-kept in large numbers.

PYLE LETTER TO PARKER

A SKILLED APwTISAN TAKES UP PARKER'S SPEECH DISSECTS IT THOROUGHLY For the Benefit of the Voters of the Country A Solar Plexis Blow. Wilmington Del., Nov. 2, 1904. Hon. Alton B. Parker, Dear Sir: I am one of that class of skilled artisans who depend upon the work of their hands to earn their livelihood. Ours is a very large class, and it goes far to make up that body of independent voters concerning whom so much is said at election time. Now it . is very necessary for us, who have the real work of life to do, that the administration of national affairs should be run upon business principles, for, if the country itself is not prosperous from a business point of view, it is clear that we of the working class can not be prosperous as individuals. So, when we vole for a candidate, or when we ote for a party, we are apt to inquire, quite aside from party lines, whether that candidate or party is properly equipped to wisely administer Hie affairs of a nation or to rule a commonwealth. Above all things, we feel that when we vote for a president we should vote for a well balanced man, who can suc cess fully conduct the enormous' business incident to a national executive. Xow, in your speech upon the 31st of October, before a great audience at Madison Square Garden, iu NewYork City, you gave utterance to a most astonishing accusation against the present administration. What you said in effect, was this: that the president of the United States -had created a Department of Commerce and labor, and had appointed a private agent as: secretary of that department, so that he might possess himself of the business secrets of corporate industries. You then further insinuated that the president made the same private agent chairman of the Republican national rommittee, so that he, the agent, might levy blackmail upon those trusts and corporations, with the connivance of the president. This. I take it, is the gist of your accusation, stripped of its clothing of rhetoric, and it 'is a verv grave charge for any man to make against another-1 far more for a plain citizen to make against the president of the United States. So far as a calm observer can see, there does not appear to be any ground for such a charge, and I ask you, not as a privai citizen or a, presidential candidate but as man to man, what would be vmr iude me n t i n a legal case t ha t w a s b rough t before your bench in which one man publicly accused another of blackmail, basing his accusation only upon the ground of malicious talk and partisan gossip? I believe, sir, even as a private citizen, that I have a right to ask you that question, and to ask it in such an open letter as this, for the man you accuse is the president, and he is my president as well as yours. No one will pretend to accuse you of deliberate and malicious falsehood for every man believes you to be an honorable gentleman. But a great many plain-thinking men like myself will feel that your prejudice has outrun your judgment, and has led you to make a cruel and extravagant accusation against a "-political onnonent . ' This, I believe, will not recommend you to the independent voter of this nation as a man of calm and deliberal judgment. Both President Rcosevelt and Mr. Cortelyou are honorable men and people of common sense know- that honorable men in real life do not lay cunning plans for months ahead for the nurpose of levying blackmail upon rich corporations. Nor is it easy for a practical workman like myself to believe that the president of the nation could be so lost to the commonest sense of decency as to create a department of slate for no other purpose than to possess himself of t the business secrets of industrial enterprises. You surely must know that the Department of Commerce and Labor was created, not as a secret bureau of information but to meet certain

industrial conditions that have arisen in the last decade. As for Mr. Cortelyou's connection with that department, every man who has ever employed another man to help him with his work knows very well that he was appointed to the secretaryship not because he was the willing tool of a blackmailer, but because the president had found him to be energetic and efficient in his duties. Finally, any reasonable man knows thai 3ir. Comlyou was made chairman of the national Republican committee, not because of his rascality, but because of his supposed ability as an organizer. And sir, it must be acknowledged that the President was as wise in this selection as he probably was in the other, for it is renernlly conceded . that Mr.. Cortelyou has . managed to convert the Democratic prestige that appeared to belong to the early days following your nomination into ah acknowledged defeat before flection day has arrived. ' ' . J'-'-" - The fact that the accusation which you and your party make against the president and his advisers has no real existence in fact. In

dustrial enterprises have contributed to the Republican campaign fund because they mistrust 3'our business qualifications. You have simply allowed your imagination to run away with your judgment. In so doing you have lost the confidence of many and have injured, not your opponent, but yourself, for you. will find that you have only confirmed the opinion of a great many plain-thinking men that you and your party alike are not equipped for the position to which you aspire. !: is not likely that ; ur speech will at all injure .your chances, for you appear to be already a beaten candidate. It is extremely likely, however, that yon will find, alien the independent vote of your state comes to be cast, that your New York speech will have tipped the beam against you, and that th reat commonwealth which now h.wig3 in the balance, will be lost to th- Demo ! cratic party : Yours very Iruly, i HOWARD PYLE.

No "whist matter what, its size color, or beauty, the expression is always the same, a combination of the rattlesnake's glitter ami an electric dvnamo. The .question is, does this expression merely last during the card orgie, cr is it permanent? Du Maurier must have acquired his idea of Svengali from watching some such eye in action.
