A BEAUTIFUL SCENE.


Happy School Children in an IDdianapo-
lis SchoolrOOm.
In indianapolis | entered one Of the
rooms containing the youngest children
at the time of the opening exercises.
The scene | encountered was glimpse
Of fairyland. was in a room full of
bright and happy children. whose eyes
were directed toward the teacher, not
because they were forbidden to look in
any other direction, but because to
them the most attractive object in the
room was their teacher. She under
stood them, sympathized and loved
them, and did all in her power to iu-
terest them aud make them happy.
The room itself was charming. The
window sills were filled with living
plants, and living plants were scattered
here and there throughout the room.
The teachers desk was literally strewn
with flowers, and upon each of the chill
dren's desks flowers had been placed to
welcome the little ones to school.
The book used during the reading les
son was the book of nature-the plant
they had just been studying. The scene
presented by the happy little children.
each with a flower in his hand. surround
ing the teacher, who was smiling upon
them, was truly beautiful.
For reading matter the children were
called upon for sentences expressing
thoughts concerning their flowers. The
sentences were written upon the board
by the teacher, and when a number of
them had been written the pupils began
to read them. The children were inter
ested because they all took an active
part in the lesson from the beginning to
the end. They were all observing, all
thinking.
Some of the little ones even committed
the crime of laying their hands upon the
teacher, and she so far forgot herself as
to fondle them in return Yet the dis
cipline was perfect. What is perfect
discipline in the classroom but perfect
attention? There was no noise, there
were everywhere signs of life, and such
signs of life as become 4 gathering of

Horses at Grass.

In the neighborhood of Turin there is
to be seen, at the entrance to a field, the
following notice in large letters:
Horses admitted to Craze at the fol
lowing rates:
''First-Horses with long tails, three
francs.
Second-Horses with clipped tails,
one franc"
If you go to a countryman and ask
him the reason for that difference in the
charge, he will reply:
The reason is very simple. The
horses with long tails can easily drive
away the flies, while those with clipped
tails cannot do so, and they are so tor
mented by these insects that they eat
absolutely nothing. - Monde Umoris-

Charged Corsets.

Now that electricity is being more and
more widely used it is no longer safe for
woman to carry her watch in the
place where it has always been most Sc
cure--in her corsets. A New York
woman few days ago was going to pay
visit of curiosity to an electric light
plant. She was warned that her watch
might be charged with electricity, and
so she did not take it with her.
The precaution was useless. The next
day the movements of the watch were
most eccentric. Now it was fast, now
slow, but never right. She asked her
husband, who was an electrician, what
could be the matter with it, and he soon
found that her corset steels had been
charged with electricity during her visit
to the plant, and that next day, when
she placed her watch in its usual resting
place, the charge had been communi-
Gated to its works.
Of course women have often worn cor
sets that have been charged the

AS we examine the various madonnas
by Botticelli in the galleries of London,
Berlin, Paris and Florence we cannot
fail to be struck by the ardor Of emotion
that seems to have animated the painter
in his search for the perfect type of
beauty realized in the Growing of the
Virgin" The construction of the head
Of the Virgin is essentially the same in
all Botticellis pictures, but the feshly
mask and the expression vary, and the
final charm of each one remains an un-
decipherable puzzle.
We feel that this madonna is an init
mate vision of the ideal woman who
Unparalleled" the painters soul; so
Dante speaks of Beatrice, the object of
surprising desire. We marvel at the
mouth, at the eyes. at the eyelids. at the
sweep of the brows, at the thick golden
threaded hair, at the splendor of the
draped head over which angels hold a
crown, at the beautiful color of the
flesh, which suggests a souvenir Of the
"Vita Nuova."
She hath that paleness of the pearl that's fit
In fair woman; SO much and not more;
She is as high as natures skill can soar;
Beauty is tried by her comparison.

A Struggle for the Whip.

Edwin Booth was once playing PetEl
chic with an actress considerably larger
than himself, and he thought she let go
the whip too readily when as Petruchlo
he wrested it from the hand of Kathar-
inc. So, after the play was over, he
said:
You must hold on to the whip with
more firmness tomorrow nis ht. Grasp
it as hard as you can; I'll get it away
from you, never f9arr
The next performance of katharine
and Petruchio" came, and Booth at
tempted to take the instrument of fagel-
lation from the lady who represented
his spouse.
1t was of no use. She held on to it
with grasp of iron, and the audience
soon began to see the joke, and ap-
plauded the actress to the echo.
Finally, out of pure good nature, she
unloosed her hold, and the play pro-
ceeded. When the curtain fell, the act
or had no further advice to give.
