The EmnerOr Frederick.

Gustav Freytag, the friend OF the EN-
peror Frederick, in his "reminiscences,
sums up his Impressions of the Emperor
affection for his wife in words which will
surprise many. He must have known the
fall significance of these words and
weighed them well when he wrote that
the Crown Prince gave himself and sub
mtted wholly to his beloved wife. This
love was the highest and hottest in his
life. 1t filed him wholly.
She was the ruler of his youth, the
confilante of ali his thoughts, his adviser
in everything in which she chose TO adj
wise. 1t was under the influence of her
individuality that he governed himself in
the arrangement of gardens, the furnish
ing of houses, the educ alton OF their ch J.
dren and his judgment of men and events.
Where be could not follow her wholly, or
where his inmost being resisted her will,
he was deeply unhappy and dissatisfied
wit himself.
"She had come to him from a larger
sphere, with great talents, quick and
bold mind. The favorite child of her
father, she had got her intellectual equip

material than he. Through happy years
she had striven with zeal, and sometimes
with patience. TO cultivate in her hus-

In Spain the infants face is swept with

Garlic, salt, bread and steak are put

In America the child is handed over to

bottle"
IL Scotland IA IL said that 10 rock the

The Grecian mother, before putting her
child in its cradle, turns three shines
around before the FIRE while singing her
fayolite song to ward off evil spirits.
The Turkish mother ioatls her child
with amulets as soon rs IL is born; small
bit of mud we'll stepped in hot water pre-
pared by precious charms is stuck on the
forehead.
Welsh mothers put pair of tongs or a
knife in the cradle TO insure the safety OF
their children; the knife is also used for
the same purpose IN some parts OF En-
gland.
The London mother places n book un
der the head of the new born infant that
it may be quick at reading, and puts
money into the first bath to guarantee its
wealth in the future.
Roumania mothers tie red ribbons
around the ankles of their children 10

mothers attach bits of asafetida to the

At the birth of a child in Lower Brit

Give Them Time.

"Old Forbes" as the neighbors called
him, was a Pennsylvania farmer IF the
old type; correct in his morals, bigoted
in religion, shrewd in business, and stub
born as iron in his prejudices. He had
three sons of different character from
himself, each of whom, as he passed out of
childhood, became vicious, deceitful and
ungovernabe.
Their father at last brought his troub-
les to the minister. Il have done my du-
~, he said. Il have never neglected to
punish them when they did not walk in
the right way"
But did il ever occur to YOU, said old
Doctor D, that the right way for n
sheep is not the right way for a lamb?
You expect from bows of fourteen the
wisdom of thirty, and punish them when
they fall short. Why are not these peaches
in bearing. Brother Forbes?" he aske
abruptly.
They were only planted last year,
said the farmer, nettled at the question.
You must give them time.
Yes, and give your human plants
time" said the old clergyman, as he left
him without another word
Farmer Forbes, after much thought,
determined TO hand the boys over to
their mother awhile.
1he experiment. was SncceSSful. Il ne
mother had patience, as well as high aims.
Her sons in the end fulfilled both her
hopes and her prayers.
There are few families now TO be found
even in Puritan New England or Presby-
terrain Pennsylvania in which the iron
rod holds sway as it did fifty years ago.
Children are suffered to grow mp without
the savage pruning and wreuching of
character once too common, but they are
often subjected 10 an unnatural mental
strain almost as hurtful. A boy of aver
age ability is put into a class of lads who
have nimbler brains than he, and-what
he lacks the ease of habit in study. He
is urged 10 take the prize from John or
equal William in marks, as though he
would be ruined in life if these boys pass
into n higher class while he is left be-
hind.
In the best schools of the country the
mind of each pupil is developed or stimu-
lated to healthy growth, as a plant is
nourished in q garden, without reference

not necessary TO use the pruning knife

An Indian woman in the Lahore district
has volunteered to accompany a police
officer TO Sind, and there promises TO
point out other women who have been de-

Multan and Sukkur TO render every as

New Anecdote That illustrates the .foNer
of the Emotional Actress

u
of the Emotional Actress.
Il think, said an old actor, Yesterday.
and he seldom tells a story unless il is
true, Il can relate Clara Aorris remin-
iscence that has never ye..s gone in to print,
though il deals with a 4 event of the '7O's
and had o really tragic foundation in
fact. 1t Is clordfy associated with the
Morrrs Camille engagement at the Union
S9r.afe In its palmy days-an engage
ynent, by the way, that developed a series
of the strangest and most morbid cpl
sodes have ever witnessed in my stage
life. This one in particular was recounted
10 me by a prominent physici IN OF this
city, under whose notice ii came quite by
accident. He happened to be in the the
alter one afternoon, and IT was just after
the third act. the scene between Camille
and Armand's father, that he heard a
rastle of excitement in the balcony, saw
a man rise from his feet and jump about
a foot in the air, and then fall back life
less on the floor. The doctor went TO his
side as rapidly as the crowd would permit
him, grasped his wrist quickly, and dis
covered the faintest possible pulsation.
He ordered the pat ent carried TO the Of
fee, and there discovered from the man s
breath that he had taken chloroform
Some hot black coffee was Immediately
sent for, and, with repeated draughts of
it and other means of restoration, the man
was finally brought back TO conscious
ness. After the crowd had left the office
of the theater, and the doctor was face
to face with the man alone, he said to
him:
What did you do il for?'
Do whatP' inquired the patient
sleepily.
"'Why did you take that chloroform?'
persisted the doctor. Don't deny it;
Your breath was heavily laden with it.
Then followed a pathetic admission
and very sad explanation. The man ad-
mitted that on three other occasions dur
ing that act of Camille he had made
preparations to take his life. He was a
we'll dressed, well-to- do New Yorker,
and is widely and favorably known to-
day. His daughter, it seems, had been
guilty of n mishap, and left the parental
roof about year before. a few months
previous to the production of the play
she had returned to her fathers house,
pleading to be taken to his shelter once
more. He had refused his pardon, and
about fortnight before the date this
story recounts she had been taken out of
the Central Park Lake corpse. The
emotional nature of that scene between
Camille and 1.-THE father had impressed
upon him the tragedy in the woman S
| life, and il so worked Gpon his feelings
that he believed he had dealt with his
girl unjustly He said that he felt that
h own life was not worth living, but he
seemed to lack the courage for suicide,
and so he had gone night after night to
see the play, hoping that under its spell
and inspiration he could bring himself TO
believe that he was justified in taking
his life. The doctor told him wisely and
philosophically that the best thing for
him was never to see the play again, and
! he followed the advice. "-NeW York Sun.

Have you seen my new Shakespeare
bangles?" asked Genevieve.
Shakespeare what?" replied her aston
ished listener.
rs it possible you don't know? See
herei" And she thrust out q round white
wrist. The entire forearm was covered
with narrow, plain bands OF oxidized
silver. There must have been twenty or
twenty five of them. and through the
center of each ran a row of lettering en-
bodying suitable sentiment from the
great bard. One from "Cymbeline" ran:
Her pretty action did outfit her gift and
did enrich it, too" And one from Corio-
Janus was still prettier: Now the fair
goddess Fortune fall deep in love with
thee"
