How New Vnrk Boy. "Whip Itehlnd."
Trnst the email boy, whose playground
is the busy street, to get all the fnn out
of life ihiit there is in it—for him. He
never wants for a game. When lie tires
of. one hi*' ingenuity will quickly sug
gest another. The boys over on the
west side of the city around the a;e
praiser's' stores are now enjoying a
sport that has just enough of danger
and devil!try in it to make it a craze
atgpug them. The streets there are trav
eled from daybreak to sundown by trucks
going to mid from the stores and the
wharves. Stealing rides on these trucks
lias long liven the pastime of the youth
of the locality, but it was accompanied
by so great a possibility of a swish
across the legs from the whip of some
irate driver that the lads began to tfre
of it The boys have now circumvented
that difficulty. Scores.of them have
obtained old jute bags and have stuffed
them with hay, straw or rags. They
have tied around the necks of these long
pieces of strong rope.
Now they stand Innocently on a comer
and wait for a truckthat is moving rap
idly enough to make it a desirable vic
tim. As. it passes them they pass the
end'of the rope aroutyl one of the guard
stakes oil the truck. • The stuffed jute
bag comes along, they jump down on it,
(till holding'the end of the rope, and are
towed along until the driver forces them
to retreat. They are. so far out of the
teach of whips that he generally must
stop his tmek and get*off to do this. By
that time the boys are half a block off.
.Sometimes five or six lads will get a tow
on the same track. The result of
many drags on behind is often to bring
the poor beast on whom the burden is
placed to a standstill.—New York
Times.
The Ancient Schoolmaster.
• A roll measuring about fifteen feet
long, containing poems hitherto un
known of Herodins in Seazon orcho-
harnbic meter, has just been exhibited
in the manuscript department of the
British museum. One of the poems is
entitled “The Schoolmaster.’' A mother
appears before the master called Lam-
prisons. She is accompanied by her soli,
and entreats the pedagogue to flog him
within an inch of his life became the
boy is the terror of her existence. He
has nearly ruined her' by playing pitch
and ton. he associates with the lowest
characters of the town, and if he is
.uked to spell the name of Maron be
tnrns it into Simon: in fact, he haa en
tirely got beyond the control of his par
ents. Lampriscna therefore fetches his
instrument of correction, which is made
of cowhide, and applies it without
mercy. The boy howls and promises to
be good, and when the schoolmaster
thinks that the yonth has had enough
be-tells the mother to keep him a close
prisoner for some time to come.—Man
chester (England) Guardian.
About Furnaces*
In placing ydUr furnace In your new
house, always remember that lateral
S ipes never give ont much heat. The
ot air mast invariably ascend to *pro-
dnee a current, and therefore we see
very often a register In the third story
giving out splendid heat, when in the
extension library, where warmth is par
ticularly desired, the air of the room is
hardly affected at nil. In a large coun
try house it wonld really be better to
have two small furnaces rather than
one large one. Less coal wonld be
used to more purpose, and they would
not be nracb more troublesome to tend
than to one. But if you have two, do
not make the miataH of patting them
side by side, as was done in a very large
house near New York. This simply In
tensified the heat in the same part of the
house without carrying it into the wings,
where it was chiefly needed.—New York
Tribune. .
An Aeronaut's Experience.
A story is told, of the thrilling ex
perience of a veteran aeronaut with a
bald eagle and a Connecticut constable.
Daring a recent ascension, when at a
height of 3,000 feet, the balloonist was
attacked by the eagle. A desperate fight
ensued, which resulted in the eagle being
killed. Half faiuting, the aeronaut
descended to terra firms. When he had
recovered he hnnted for and found the
dead bird. While he was examining his
prize the constable cams along and ar-
reeted him for killing the bird, for which
offense, he claimed, a fine of foG is im
posed. The aeronaut, it is related, had
more difficulty in escaping punish
ment than he bad in killing the bird.—

The laws of health are taught in the
schools; but not in a way to ue of much
practicable benefit, and are never illus
trated by living examples,' wbibh In
many cases might easily be done. If
some scholar, who bad just contracted a
cold, was brought before the school, so
that- all could hear the dry, loud cough
and*know its significance; see the thin
white coating on the tongue, and later,
as the cold developed, see the profuse
watery expeotoratlon and thin watery
discharge from the nose, not one of them
would ever forget wbat the first symp
toms of a cold, were. The soholar should
then be given Chamberlain’s Cough
Remedy freely, that all might see that
even a severe cold could be cured In one
Or two days, or at least greatly miti
gated, when properly treated as soon as
the first symptoms appear. This retaody
