manner could be vastly improved. A

On another occasion the same pupil
came to word which he could not pro
nounce, and as the teacher was busy at

show: Near the close of a hot August
day was driving through the village OF

played out horse had covered half mile
the rain came dancing down. had two

"But once we got into the house we in
sisted on its being bought, and used every

forgave US for the annoyance of leaving
the machine for weeks and asking her
every other day If she wouldn't buy,
when she had emphatically declared she
would not. Now was the turn of the
young lady in the old fashioned house
TO get square. And although the rain
had nearly washed the machines out of

A stunning and decidedly sensational
wedding occurred in Odessa the other
day. Marc Pogorezky led his blushing
bride to the altar. While the Russian
priest, or pope, as he is called, was pre-
pairing to perform the ceremony. Marc
went out to get drink, saying that he
would return in a few moments. In his
absence, however, a handsome young
stranger approached the bride and Of
fered himself as substitute. She inn
mediately accepted him, and the pope,
who was half drunk, never noIiced the
change. The ceremony was performed.
just then Marc reappeared, refreshed
and ready for matrimony. But when
he found out what had happened he
proceeded at once to paint the church
red. He thrashed the bridegroom,
slapped the bride, knocked down the
father-in-law, punched the pope, and
kicked the mother-in-law. He was ar
rested; but as the case involves ques-
tion of ecclesiastical law, it was referred

Crime Is Scientific.

There is one thing which business men
may as well understand. As fast as sci
ence invents appliances for the safety
of money or valuables, just as fast does
crime invent schemes to circumvent.
Crime is more of science today than it
ever was. You may remember the bur
glar proof safe that was put in at Salem,
Ills. 1t was the latest. The inventors
not only claimed for it that it could not
be opened in the usual way, but they
claimed that it was so constructed as to
Withstand any explosive which might be
piled up about it and touched off. This
claim seemed to invite test by the scien-
tific cracksman, for one morning pieces
Of this safe were found all around the
building. 1t had been blown into atoms

window of the carriage. Consequently, at
the station where the tickets were looked at,
he had to pay. At his journeys end he had
to acknowledge that he had been ssdone." a
few weeks later some men in a railway car
riage saw this same man laughing immoder-

babies, Need of sleep.

A young baby should spend most of
its time in sleep. Never allow it to be
wakened for any purpose whatever. A
child's nerves receive a shock every
time it is reused from sleep, which is
most injurious to it. Admiring friends
should be made to wait until it is
awake to kiss and play with it. After
it is nursed at night put it back in its
crib, and If it is comfortable it will soon
fall asleep. 1t should never sleep in
the bed with an older person Place
the crib with its head to the light, so as
TO protect the eyes from the glare. a
light canopy serves to ward off draughts.
Curtains cut off the supply of fresh air,
and, except mosquito netting in sum-
mer, should not be used Until child
