A New Industry.

There seems TO be an exorbitant value
attached to small boys in Brooklyn. At
least such will be the universal opinion
if the Brooklyn man who sued a schoo
teacher for spanking his small boy, and
laid his damages at $1,000, should be
successful. Few pers. IS will believe
that the man has BEEN damaged to the
extent of 5000 by the spanking of his
small boy. No matter how highly he
may estimate his boys services, it is an.
reasonable to suppose that he was de.
p,jved of them for period sufficiently
long to make his loss equivalent to 49,
600. Let it be conceded, for the sake Of
argument, that the boy could not sit
down for six consecutive months. He
could still have rendered to his father all
the services which a small boy is ordin-
arily capable Of rendering, and the
parents loss would not have amounted
to any appreGiable sum-nucn less to
81. 900. If the suit proves successful
there is not a boy in a BROOKLYN school
who will not clamor to be spanked. At
The u most the process of spanking can
not be stretched beyond five minutes, at
can make 5000 in five minutes he can
support his family in afflnence by Two
yearly spankings. AS for the boy who
should ecure a daily spanking-as al
most any boy Of average ability and con-
scientious devotion to duty COLD do
he would make his father a millionaire.
II is hardly probable, however, that thu
plaintiff IN the ut now pending will re.
cover So, 600. When our courts estimate
a mans life to be worth only $500 the,
can hardly with consistency yalne the
spanking of a snail boy at 81 ,OU0.-New
York Zines.

Wealthy Congressman

The number of wealthy members of
Congress constantly increases. Social
prestige is frequently as much sought
after by them as distinction in l~egisla-

adjustments increase wonderfully year

content to live upon his pay cuts a very
small figure here. Col. Theodore Ly-
