Nasturtium Farm, Mt. Airy. Aug
4.—(Special.)—Did you ever stand In
some elevated spot whore you could
catch Heeling glimpses of sea and
mountains? Ouch haa been tny lot In the
lost day or two. A party of us climbed
the summit of Cheenansetah, upon
which a tower has been built, and from
this lofty point what a magnificent
panorama Is spread out to one's en
raptured gaze. To the southwest and
east as far as the eye can reach
stretches the llmltfess plateaus bound
ed only by the sky tine—that grand
ocean view that Is such an attraction
to this town of views and scenery.
Ope has but to look steadily for & few
moments and rapidly the scene dis
solves, Where but a moment since ,wns
a waving forest, living green verdure
and trees of every shade, now by - the
simple act of a fixed gaze has been
changed Into the unfathomable blue of
old ocean. The waves are deep ultra
marine close to us, but they shade off
lighter and still lighter as they re
cede, until :we can see distinctly the
white caps break on the incoining surf,
and occaslonliy a tempestuous billow
breaks In foam on some Imaginary
reef. The smoke from some factory or
rnoviog train in the distance but
deepens the Illusion, and we see state
ly vessels, like some huge bird, flying
before the breeze, or an ocean steamer,
whose funnels belch forth the smoke
that elongates and Anally disappears
as the ••liner" passed out to foreign
shores. And then the mountain view
looking to the north and west is
equally fine. The backbone of the Blue
Ridge, and further east the Nantahala
mountains are seen. If there Is no wind
to disturb and If the clouds cast their
usual shadows as they dimple and dap
ple the range, their beatuy is unsub
stantial, os though a strong breath
from Boreas might melt it away in a
moment. "Wo might almost say:
They are but sailing foam bells
Along thoughts causing stream.
And take their shape and sun-color
From him that sends the dream.
The quiet of the ocean view Is more
like that of some pure mountain lake
that Is never rippled by the storms that
pervade the sea. It is only Inland water
that can inspire ahd suggest rest. The
sea.Is never calm in the same sense
that we speak of and admire that of
the gem that -reposes on the mountain
top or that nestles at Its feet. The
sea seems only to pause for a breath
ing spell In its monotone; the moun
tain lake sleeps, smiles and dreams.
Truly, truly, lying thus prone In the
softest of grass on the mountain top
Life's burdens fell, Its discords cease,
I lapse Into the glad release
Of nature’s own exceeding peace.
I have fallen upon a ludicrous but
romanto Incident that happened some
years ago In the confines of the an
cient city of Clarksville, which Is Just
eight miles from here. It seems that
In that city there once lived a family,
onolent and wealthy, whose- honor and
glory were dear above all things to
their "culChawed" minds and hearts.
Their name, while one that might not
be called elegant or haughty, or even
distinguished, was one that rolls Juicily
under the tongue, and was nothing
more or less than Waterspout. These
Waterspouts were not common, every
day waterspouts; while they were lead
ers, they were not conductors, and
while they often boiled with rage at
tome fancied slight or on account of
some non-recognltlon of their aristo
cratic affairs, they never descended,
even when in the cups, to being found
"In the gutter." They were great enter
tainers, and loved to have young men
nnd maidens "come and stay a week"
and bring their friends, and It was
on aeeouql of this hospitable faculty
that they got Into the trouble which
I now relate. Imprimis, I must state
that one of the founders of the house
was well known as 'Unde Thebes." so
called. I suppose, because he was an
cient and a magnificent ruin. Uncle
Thebes had a falling; In fact, he had
two. One was love for his honor, and
the honor of his race and family, their
ancient nnd honorable name; the other
was a weak failing, that Is, a weekly
fating, as It almost invariably occurred
when It did occur, on a Saturday. In
plain terms. Uncle Thebes got full and
almost Immediately subsided Into a
seml-dellrlUm. In which the ancient and
honorable Waterspouts were lauded to
the skies. Well, on with the dance.
One day two young ladles were visit
ing the Waterspouts. One of them
was Miss Kittle Chips from Georgia,
and tho other Miss Ttnythn from Mis
sissippi. About the same time a wound
ed olffcar, Capt. Boatleft, was brought
In with a broken arm to be recuperated
under the tender care of Ms friends.
Of course under the feeling then ex
isting, war times, the captain was
given the guest chamber that fronted
the beautiful lawn and that also opened
on a wide piazza, the finest, most airy,
most noticeable room In the bouse. Not
long before the captain convalesced,
one Friday afternoon, lie received a
telegram to Join his regiment. Search
was made for Uncle Thobes, who was
a particular friend of the young offi
cer’s. but he could not be found, and
1: was feared that he was again taking
a Roman holiday somewhere, or put
ting large patches of crimson on the
unsuspecting town. Well, the captain
went, and the madam said to the girls:
"Now, you shall have tha* front room
that you talk so much about.” So
they took possession. That Saturday
night, as they prepared to retire, one
of the girls pushed open the blinds,
and in the gauzlest or gauzy dream-
dresses reclined In the window, un
seen as she supposed by man or beast.
But suddenly she slammed with a pecu
liar air the blinds and windows,
screamed, hastily turned out the light
and literally flung herself In the bed,
with a force that was peculiarly disar
ranging to Miss Tinytrhn, who was
already there, "doing up” her bongs.
"What Is it?” Kltzler* demanded
Miss Tiny.
“Sh! Sh" was all the answer she got.
"You must tell me! What did you
seer 1 Again the breathless question
from Tlnytlm.
A prolonged “Hush—sh—sh” was all
the reply.
•‘Kittle Chips. I'll kill you If you
don't tell me. Kittle—”
But Just then an agitated voice out
on the piazza broke on them: "Girls,
girls, for heaven's sake turn out tho
dght and don't say a word on your
lives.”
‘Fairly crushed, poor Miss Tlnytlm
crouched closer to Kittle,' praying, cry
ing, trembling and-gvlshlng herself at
home. She could not dream of what
tragedy was brewing. While they wait
ed and listened a heavy foot sounded
In the hall, making straight for thetr
room. Then a thundering knock on
their door. 'Come out of here!" a
stentorian voice shouted. "Up and out,
miserable creature!" Another fusllade
on the door, and Tlnytlm Bhrlokcd nnd
covered up her head to deafen the
dreadful sounds Shat the maniac
Thebes was now making and the aw
ful words he was coining. For Thebes
had returned in the usual Saturday
night condition, nnd seeing a lady In
scanty attire cooling off in Capt. Boat-
letl’s room, he had Jumped at the con
clusion that things were wrong, and
ns he was finally pushed, shoved nnd
fought away from the door of tho
young ladles' room, tho last they heard
of him as -he was railroaded down tho
hall was his ringing nnathdma: “By
the great hornspoon, I will break Info
that room and murder thnt wretched
women for desecrating the halls of
the Waterspouts!"

Is the period. It Is then thatch*
mind Is freest from care, the Imagination
unhampered, the memory most retentive, the
eye brighlesf. and the nature moil
susceptible. What a boy reeds In this
period becomes so Indsllbly Impressed upon
tils nature that It becomes a part of tils very
character. \
This Is mime when a parent's responslbl Illy
Is greatest. It Is not enough to tell the boy
what he ought to become. Most boys are
not overly susceptible to didactic
teaching. You can usually lead him a mile
easier than you can drive him « rod. See
that he has tho proper surroundings, and a
llttls encouragement, and It Is eurprlslng how
readily he develope s taste for the best
In literature. Let that taste be developed,
and there Is little danger ns to his future.
It was
Who said; "Show me what books a boy
reads, end I will read you his destiny.'
How Important It Is, then, the! your horns
should be provided wlfh books of the highest
character.
Fairytales, and even, perhaps, "Buffalo
Bill" stories, have their place as davelopers
of a taste for reading, a sort of literary milk,
•s It were, but unless the boy soon shows a
preference for the stronger meat of practical
knowledge, history, travel, etc., you may be
sure that he Is anentally unsound, or that
there has been something radically wrong In
bis education.
The Encyclopedia Urltannica has rightly
been termed "the concentrated essence of
the whole world's wisdom." Let your boy
read Its Interesting pages, and he will soon
look wl'h distal* upon " flashv " literature.
We are continually underestimating a boy's
capacity for large Ideas. There Is nothing
so attractive as truth. Give him thn material
out of which to construct large ideas. Put
Briunnlca In tha heme, where he can consult
It continually, and as he attains manhood he
will find no place In literary or professional
Ufa to which ha may not aspire.
