GIRLS AND COMPLIMENTS.
Do Not Magnify Them Into Something
Very Important.

Not TO value honest praise, not to en-
JOY the appreciation of ones fellows to
be indifferent to their good az to their
ill-opinion, is less likely to be a mark Of
lofty superiority than of intense salts
faction.
Kindly people. friendly people, like
to be praised They find a compliment
agreeable which is sincere and not ex-
cessive, and in one way or another they
are pretty sure to manifest their pleas
ure in il.
Often. however, they DO so against
their will, making all the time a poor
pretence of indifference which they sup
pose to be demanded by modesty or
pOliteness
Sometimes they so further, and in
sistentlv disclaim praise which they
can not but know is fairly merited
Again they giggle foolishly. or try to
waive the matter aside with an airy
gesture and laugh that does not ring
true.
Girls especially, who are most likely
TO receive compliments, are least likely

girl will destroy delightful impression
by her silly embarrassment at a few
natural words of admiration for her
youth and freshness
As she flushes and laughs, looks up
and then down, and turns her head
consciously aside, one feels that there

in her presence moves her so easily.
Or clever girl, who thinks il due to
her reputation for cleverness to despise
compliments. will repel where she has
Just attracted by airs of poorly acted
disdain.
There is no real difficulty in accept
ing a compliment. 1t Is neither vain
nor undignifed, but rather gracious
and becoming, to take pleasure in Civ
ing pleasure. Therefore, if girl has
given pleasure, either by her appear
anee or by her actions, and if some one
tells her of it there is always something
honest. simple and suitable that she can
say in reply:
II am glad that you were pleased"
81 am glad you think did we'll" or Il
am glad you approve my work.
There is no need either to disclaim or
to assent to the praise uttered, there
fore there is no reason why one should
be embarrassed in its acceptance. Let
every one admire honestly, but let one
also honestly receive admiration that Is
courteously and properly expressed.
1t is lovely to be loved, delightful to
be admired. agreeable to be praised
That is what every girl feels, and what
no girl need be ashamed frankly to ae-
knowledge. She need be ashamed only
if she magnifes a compliment, which

A CURIOUS PIG.

An account of curious pig comes
from Australia 4 Mr. lie Mortemore,
living at Seriana creek, Queensland,

scribes Is a sort of trcc-climbingpig For
a number of years wild pigs have been
numerous in that locality, and his
theory is that the original or common
pig has been changed partly by the
necessities of his wild life, into the
variety he has discovered
The captured animal weighs about q
hundredweight and is pretty fat, with
bristly brown fur. small black spots,
snout and ears like a pig; but the jaw
is furnished with front teeth like a ro-
dent, and has also large CANNES and
powerful back grinders
1.-THE fore feet are furnished with
hook-like claws, but the hind ones with
only two hooks on each hoof. The tail
is thick, about foot long, and highly
prehensile, and in a state of rest it is
usually carried by the animal in what
is known as a Flemish coil A Flemish
coil. | believe, somewhat resembles the

This last item about the new Austria
liam pig is impressive 1t shows that
this pigs ideas about the proper ar
rangement for tail are novel and
striking, and that he must have de
voted some attention to the subject
This Australian animal has other
peculiarities. 1t is furnished with a
pouch. which it appears touse for carry
ing a supply of food while travelling or
migrating to fresh pastures. 'ln
drought the animal climbs trees, and
hangs by its tail while it gathers its
food by its hook claws"
Mr.. LeMortcnore intends ensnaring
more of these pigs. He declares that
the flesh is excellent resembling veal

How Wide Awake Was Started.

The story of how the Wide Awake
was founded is a pretty little one
Nine miles out of Battle Creek, in
Michigan, there were two girls who
lived on a farm and who had longings
after editorships They did not imme-
diately rush into literature with poems
and plays and the like: perhaps they
had some premonitory sympathy with
editors, but they sewed and saved their
money for a half dozen years. Then
they bought a small farm and cultivated
it themselves, doing hard, rough work
They wrote occasionally, and their con-
tributions were favorably received by
the papers and magazines. When their
farm had yielded them a sufficiently
large amount of capital to start a mag
azine, and their literary success seemed
assured from the favor with which
their contributions were received, they
issued the Wide Awake. 1t was dozen
years from the time of their youthful
planning. One of the young women,
Ella Farman, continues the magazine

WOMAN DENTISTS.
A New York Girl Tells of the Delights
of the Profession.

A New York Girl Tells of the Delights
of the Profession.
The n. Y. Advertiser recently con-
tanned an interesting article about
woman dentists. Perhaps this led the
writer of the following description to
pay the visit she describes: Il had the
pleasure of having a tooth filed by n
girl dentist the other day. The word
pleasure is used to some extent advis-
cdly. for there were pleasant things
about it. She was pleasant to look at,
with brown eyes and brown curly hair,
for one thing. She was very pleasant
spoken, and she had small fingers that
went easily in the mouth She was a
sympathetic creature, too, AM had all
manner of ingenious contrivanca for
making unpleasant processes as little
unpleasant as possible. She had very
tastcfully furnished parlOrs for receiv-
ing unfortunates. and she didn't leave
anything opressively funny about. to
remind them of their doom There
were fine pictures on the wall
and some new books, there were
art portieres and there was the
girl dentist herself. She used to be
clerk for an importing house, believe,
writing the French and German letters
for the firm. She clerked it until she
satisfied herself there was no future in
that, then she went to a dental college
and now is establishing herself in the
city. She says she likes her business
and feels thoroughly at home in it, and
her business, so far, seems to like her.
1t is her testimony that even in dent
lists chair man can't resist the tempta-
ton to try to flirt. and that she has had
big eyes enough made at her from over
big white napkin to shake any nerves
not thoroughly steady. 'And what do
you do in such cascs?" was the query
Let him proceed till get well started
at work and then he usually has some
thing else to think OF. A man can't
fiirt with a drill getting in its fine work
in n sensitive cavity. But most of my
patients are women and children" she
concluded. There are not more than
two or three women dentists in New
York. There was only one 4 year ago.
