Upon a recent visit to the Wisconsin University, Prof. Holmes asked a learned professor whether his experience had taught him that co education in a University was wise. The reply he received was. "We 7 " " would as soon now think of asking whether men ought to be admitted to Universities as whether women women should enjoy the same advantages." There has been little agitation in North Carolina for the opening of our State University to women, but it is our opinion that in a quiet way the sentiment in favor of this en largement has grown very much in the last few years. The time is near at hand when the University will be open to women. Jts doors should be thrown wide open before another year expires. Mews and Observer. mm m Revenue Officers not Sir Knights.

Paducahy-Ky., News, ' ' The Poor Growing Poorer. While it is entirely true that the business methods of the past thirty years nave tended to increase enor- 1 . m mousiy tne lortunes of a few, and thus to widen the gulf between the very rich and the very poor, it wholly untrue that the poor as a class are either absolutely or relatively poorer than before. Indeed, the number of small but comfortable homes in every part of the country, as well as the reports of saving-banks and building and insurance associa tions, prove incontestiibly that the poor have shared in the prosperity of tne rich, and that the average stan dardof comfort was never higher man at present Indeed the average workingman of to-day lives better anil posesses more of the comorts of life than the average noble of six hun dred years ago.

A short while ago he missed his rooster aud in about four days had occasion to go into his apple house.

After it had been killed Mr. Jones found that the 'snake, which was a very laree one. was the t e thief that had gotten away with the rooster.

His father killed some squirrels, of which the son ate heartily. He left the house, followed by his father, who saw his son jumping from limb to limb of a tree, barking -like a squir rel. He called for him to come down, but this only seemed to make the boy want to escape, and he at tempted to jump from one tree to another.

"It is a common practice," says the Philadelphia Record, "for the boys in watch and iewelrv factories to j L j w r kill ;the rats that infest the buildings, and burn the bodies to obtain the gold. . Many oiled rags are used in burnishing watch cases, and in time become impregnated with gold. The rats eagerly devour these rags, and a few months of this kind of diet fills the interior mechanism of the rat with a gold plating. Twice a year the boys have a grand cremation. The rats are caught by the hundred and burned in a crucible.. The in tense heat drives off all animal sub stances and leaves the gold in the shape of a button. . .The amount of the precious metal obtained in this way is not large, but it gives the in genious yonngsters considerable pocket money." , x ; In order to eclipse the society of a neighboring town, society leaders in Massillon, O., have arranged for a progressive hammock party Each young lady will occupy a hammock, in which each young man will be per mitted to sit for five minutes.
