Favored a Higher Fine.

By Bill Nyc.
Win. Taylor, the son of the present
American Consul at Marseilles, was a
good deal like other boys. while at
school at his old home, at Hudson, Wis.
One day he called his father into the
library and said:
"Pa, | don't like to tell you, but the
teacher and | have had trouble"
Whats the matter now?"
"Well, / cut one Of the desks a little
with my knife, and the teacher says I've
cot to pay a dollar OF take a lickin'."
We'll, why don't you take the licking
and say nothing more about il? / can
stand considerable physical pain, so
long as it visits our family in that form.
OF course, it is not pleasant to be logged
but you have broken q rule Of the school
and | guess you'll haye to stand it. /
presume that the teacher will in wrath
remember mercy and avoid disabling
You so that you can't get your coat on
any more"
"But pa, ] feel mighty bad about it al
ready, and If you would pay my line I'd
never do 1t again. ] know a good deal
more about it now and | will never do it
uSttllis ~ AOllal dlL1 u IiUCh W fOu,
pa, but it's q heap TO q toy that hasn't
got a cent. If | could make q dollars as
easy as yon can, pa, I'd never let my lit
tie boy get hogged that way just to save
u dollar. III | had a little Teller that got
licked bekuZ / didn'tpu up fer him, I'd
hate the sight of money always. I'd feel
as if every dollar / had in my pocket had
been taken oct OF my little Kids back"
well, now jill tell you what
I'll do. I'll give you a dollar to
save you from punishment this time,
but if anything Of this kind ever occurs
again I'll hold you while the teacher
licks you, and then I'll get the teacher
10 hold you while Ill lick you, That's
the way [ feel about that. II you want
to go around whiting up IA education
al institutions you can do so; but you
will have to purchase them afterwards
yourself. | don't propose TO buy any
more damaged school furniture. You
probably grasp my meaning, do you
not7 / send yon ts school to acquire an
education, and not TO acquire liabilities
50 that you can come around and make
an assessment on me. | feel q great in
terest in you, Willie, but do not feel
as though it should be an assess
able interest. / want to 60 on, of course,
and improve the properly, but when |
pay my dues or it / want to know that it
goes toward development work. l don't
want my assessments TO go toward the
purchase of a school-desk with Ameri-
can hireoglyphics carved on it.
II hope you will bear this in yollr
mind, my son, and beware. 1t will go
greatly to your interest to beware. If
were III your place | would put in large
portion Of my time in the beware bust
ness"
The boy took the dollar snd went
thougEtsglly away to school. and 40
more was ever SAIL abou the matter un-
80 MI. Taylor learned causally several
months later that the Spartan youth had
received the walloping and tiled away
the dollar for future reference. The BOY
was afterward heard te say that he
favored q much heavier fine IN cases OF
that kind, One whipping was sufficient,
he said, but he favored a fine OF 50. 1t
ought TO be severe enough to make it an
