C. U. Wiley. Ordinary. CLAYS COFFIN STORE UBRARZ MULLDIN’U. 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!"

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.
