A Thoughtl'n 1 Mother Sayh:
That if you want your children
to bo court<'ouh you must treat
thorn with respect.
That they will invariably copy
your manners, so you must take
cure that they are the best.
That you should be as careful
of their feelings as you wish them
to be of the feelings of ot hers.
That when it is necessary to ad
minister reproof, it should be
given in private.
The most, children are sensitive
on this point: it injures their self
tespoet, and they fool it acutely,
though they are not able to express
it in words.
That to tell a child in public
that it has been rude or lacking
in good breeding is as unwarrant
able as it would be to toll a guest
80.
That it is no excuse to argue that
you are doing it for the purpose
of making the child better and
more thoughtful.—Exchange.

honor of her guests, Misses Clyde

Thoughts on Womankind.
A woman’s power avails most
when it is asserted least.
I take it for granted that a man
and a woman are of the same worth
and not of the same kind.
A woman's special and inesti
mable value in the world lies just
in the qualities which make her
womanhood.
The worst slavery is t hat which
makes a woman pretend to be a
man.
She can never do anything in
the world that will he worth half
as much as what she can be. But
she can never be her best unless
she does something and docs it
well.
Strenuous life for girls is like
martial music for violins. They
can play it, but it does not
sound well.
There is an air pure, serene,
stimulating, in which it is pleas
ant to live and easy to work and
sweet to rest. Some people are
alVays surrounded by an influence
which has the same effect upon
the spirit that this tine air has
upon tlie body. It. comes from
the heights of a clean, steady,
cheerful, unselfish life. The wom
an whose soul walks in these lofty
places carries their emanations
with her wherever she goes, and
has power to lead others upward.
—Henry Van Dyke in Harper’s
Bazar.
READ IT IN HIS NEWSPAPER.
George Schaub, a well known
German citizen of New Lebanon.
Ohio, is a constant reader of the
Dayton Volkszeitung. He knows
that this paper aims to advertise
only the host in its columns, and
when he saw Chamberlain's Pain
Balm advertised therein for lame
back, he did not hesitate buying a
bottle of it for his wife, who for
eight weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pains in her back
and could get no relief. He says:
“After using the Pain Balm for a
few days my wife said to me, ‘I
feel as though born anew,’ and
before using the entire contents of
the bottle the unbearable pains
had entirely vanished and she
could again take up her household
duties.” He is very thankful and
hopes that all suffering likewise
will hear of her wonderful recovery

CONDENSED STORIES.
What Senator Platt Has Learned
About Newspaper Making.
Senator Platt of Connecticut says
that he has learned one great truth
about the newspaper business after
many years of reading them.
A number of newspaper men, says
the Washington Post, went in to see
him after a meeting of the commit
tee on Cuba to learn what had been
accomplished toward the Teller in
vestigation. Senator Piatt made a
very brief statement regarding the
proposal to call President Havemey
er and others of the sugar trust,
and it was suggested to him that a
little more detail would he accepta
ble, as a column story on the sub
ject would be desired by the news
papers.
Mr. Platt smiled quizzically at
the newspaper men a moment and
then told of his great truth.
“The newspapers nre not inter
ested in anything that is completed.
You want a column about a subject
that has not yet developed, but
when I looked in the newspapers
this morning to see what they said
about the agreement on the Chinese
exclusion bill I could find almost
nothing.”
The newspaper men agreed with
him.
Joked a Future Senator.
Ex-Senator Edward 0. Wolcoct
established a law and real estate of
fice with his brother in George
town, Colo., at the outset of his ca
reer, but as the law department of
the concern was unprofitable he de-
“SAY, YOUNG FELLF,!:, WHICH OF YOU ALL

cided to move on to a neighboring
camp, where silver had been struck,
lie packed his belongings on a don
key and at the last moment decided
to take with him the firm’s old sign,
“Ed Wolcott & 8r0.,” which had
just been replaced by anew one.
When he arrived at his destination,
the miners gathered around and
looked him over, staring hard at
the sign strapped on the donkey.
“Say, young feller,” drawled one
of them, “which of you all is Ed?”
Stockton’s Famous Riddle.
Frank 11. Stockton’s famous sto
ry, “The Lady or the Tiger?” set
everybody guessing. It was a topic
of conversation when Mr. Stockton'
met 1 halyard Kipling at a reception
and informed the latter that he con
templated going to India.
“I’m glad to hear it!” exclaimed
Kipling enthusiastically. “I know
just what we’ll do with you over
there when we get you away from
your friends and family. We’ll lure
you out into the jungle and have
you seized and bound by our trusty
wallahs. We’ll have you turned on
your hack and get one of our biggest
elephants to stand over you with his
fore foot poised above your head.
Then I’ll say in my most insinuat
ing way, ‘Come now, Stockton,
which was it —the lady or the ti
ger ?’ ”
It was told that an enterprising
magazine manager offered him $lO,-
000 if he would reveal the true end
jf the famous tale, but Stockton
was true to his story and declined
the offer.
His Eminence “Martin Kelly.”
Cardinal Martinelli learned Eng
lish in Dublin, Ireland, and speaks
it with the soft, mellow brogue of
the educated Irishman from that
part of the Emerald Isle.
The cardinal tells a good story
about his accent. Shortly after his
arrival in this country an old wom
an called at the delegation upon
some matter of minor importance
and was granted an audience with
the affable apostolic delegate. Then
site start led the people of Washing
ton by assuring them that the new
delegate was an Irishman.
“Indeed, then, he is Irish;” she
said, “because I heard him talk.
And, sure, isn’t his name Martin
Kelly?”
It is quite a joke now among ec
clesiastics to allude to his eminence
as Martin Kelly.—Washington Cor.

The Keason For The Buttons.
The following interesting expla
nation for the row of buttons on
the sleeves of the German sol
diers’ uniform is from Invention:
“Frederick the Great liked to
see his soldiers smartly dressed.
He discovered that many of the
men were in the habit of wiping
the perspiration from their faces
with their coat sleeves, and gave
the coat an untidy appearance.
In order to stop this practice,
Frederick ordered that a row of
buttons should be placed on the
upper edge of each sleeve. In this
manner the habit was broken up.
But the buttons remained, and
when their original purpose was
forgotten they were placed on the
under side of the sleeve, to be out
of the way.”
Saved From An Awful Fate.
“Everbody said I had consump
tion ,” writes M rs. A. M. Shields,
of Chambersburg, Pa., “I was so
low after six months of severe
sickness, caused by hay fever and
asthma, but few thought I could
get well, but I learned of the mar
velous merit of Dr. Kings New
Discovery for Consumption, used
it, and was completely cured.”
