A writer in The Boston Transcript de-
scribes the school In the state reformatory
at Concord, Mass. The greater part of the
men gladly avail themselves of its privi-
leges, though others make all kinds Of ex-
cuses, and one boy bruised his right fore
finger regularly for two weeks in order TO
be exempt from writing
OF course the school is not without its
Ounces. One boy could never remember
the word Conjunction" The teacher la
bored in vain till one day he had an inspira-
ton. The close proximity Of the iustitu-
tion to Concord junction gave him an idea
Now, Tom" he said, you can remem-
Der conjunction by thinking of Concord
Junction"
Toms face beamed At last the bother
some word was conquered; heshould never
forget It.
Weeks went by. and the incident passed
out of mind. The old difficulty was no
longer heard of One night visitors en-
tered the room, and the teacher called mp
Tom TO analyEe a sentence. All went well
till he came to the word and" Then he
stopped. and a cold chill crept over the
teacher
Tom glanced at the floor and then at the
ceiling. Suddenly his face frightened.
"And-and, said be, "and is a Concord
junction"

For bedrooms, covers and quilts, etc, are
sometimes made TO correspond. Say the
material chosen is pale blue linen. The
bedspread, small table cover, toilet and
washstand slips. mats and splasher are all
of the same and the decoration consists Of
pale yellow marguerites shaded with darker
tints, but all soft and subdusd The edges
may be finished of in this manner: Set
i've or seven rows Of silk along the edge at
regular intervals, like the printed lines OF
a sheet OF music. This is done by taking
a long stitch in front Of the material,
catching up two threads, then another
long stitch. The stitch may measure
about a quarter OF an inch, and always the
two same threads are to be taken up in
every row When this is all done make a
buttonhole stitch over the whole Of the five
or seven rows just where the tive threads
are taken up. Now you have the rows Of
gold thread all buttonholed over with blue
thread at regular distances.

Dogs as auxiliaries Of the sentinels are

military service they are tied Up, and ma

the other hand is TO feed and pet them. II
then at night they are fastened TO a sentry

They can distinguish the native from the
European by the scent. though either
should lie concealed. About this method
of training there seems TO be a good deal
OF unnecessary and cruel ingenuity. Our
English dog fanciers would probably be
willing to undertake the training Of senti-
mel dogs on terms much easier for the dogs

A Cincinnati travelling man tells Of an
enterprising undertaken in his town who
tried all sorts of lodges. He made an in
novation in the business by resorting TO a
prize package scheme. With every first
class funeral he threw in typewriter
report OF the officiating minister's sermon.
The other undertakes stood aghast at this.
About month afterwsrd he went TO sew

labels for their morphine and poison bot

advertisement upon them. When tie re-
spectacle undertakes heard of the attempt

him that he left the city.-Detroit News.

HOW 1T TASTES Ar FIRST.
The Bad Boys First Experience with
Chewing Tobacco.

The boy said it was q peculiar kind of
tobacco, and was known as molasses to-
oacco, because it was sweet The other
boys did not ask how he came to know its
name o. where he got it-boys never ask
anything that il would be well for them TO
know-but they accepted his theory and
his further statement that it was of a mild
ness singularly adapted to learners with
out misgivinGs. The boy was himself
chewing vigorously on a large quid and
launching the juice from his lips right and
left Ike grown person, and my boy took
as large bite as his benefactor babe him.
He found it as sweet as he had been told it
was, and be acknowledged the sptness OF
its name Of molasses tobacco. 1t seemed
70 him golden opportunity to acquire
noble habit on easy terms.
He let the guild rest in his cheek. rs he
had seen men do, when he was not crush
ing it between his teeth, and for some mo-
ments he poled HIS plank up and down the
canal boat with a sense OF triumph that
nothing marred
Then all Of sudden he began TO feel
pale. The boat seemed TO be going round
and the sky wheeling overhead. The sun
was lodging about very strangely. Drops
of sweat burst from the boys forehead; be
let 90 his pole and said he thought he
would 60 home. The fellow who gave him
the tobacco began to laugh and the other
fellows to mock, but my boy did not mind
them Somehow. be did not know how,
he got out of the canal boat and started
homeward, but at every step the ground
rose as high as his knees before him, and
then, when he got his foot high enough
and began TO put il down, the ground was
not there
He was deathly sick as he reeled and
staggered on, and when he reached home
and showed himself, white and haggard,
to his frightened mother he had scarcely
strength enough TO gasp out confession
of his attempt 10 retrieve the family honor
by learning To chew tobacco. In another
moment nature came 70 his relief, and
then he fell into a deep sleep which lasted
the whole afternoon, so that il seemed 10
him the next day when he woke up, glad
TO find himself alive If not - lively
Perhaps he had swallowed some Of the
poisonous juice of the tobacco; perhaps Ii
had acted upon his brain without that
His father made no very close inquiry into
the facts, and he did not forbid him the
use of tobacco. IL was not necessary: in
that one little experience he had enough
for a whole lifetime IL shows that after
all boy is not so hard 10 satisfy in every
