Old Aunt Peggy.

When the war was over, old Aunt FegBy
went to Monsieur and said:
'Nas=a. ! amt never gwine TO quit yer

Monsieur aud madame were very much
touched ut this mark of affection and hdel-
ity from Aunt Peggy. So, in the general
reconstruction of the plantation which I'M
mediately followed the surrender, nice
cabin, pleasantly appointed, was set apart
for the Old woman. Madame did not even
FORGET the very comfortable rocking chair
i'm which Aunt Peggy might set down, Z"
as she herself touchingly expressed it, IAN

She has been rocking ever since.
At intervals of about two years Aunt
Peggy hobbies up to the house, and deliY-
ers the stcrCotyped address which has be
come more than familiar;
"AIisfrt-. rs come to take a las look at

After such a visit Aunt Peggy inyaria-
bly, returns to- her cabin with a generously
filled apron.
The scruple which monsieur one time
felt in supporting a woman for so many
years in idIgness has entirely disappeared
OF late his attitude toward Aunt Peggy is
simply one of profound astonishment-
wonder at the surprising age which the
old black woman may attain when she sets
her mind to il, for Aunt Peggy is l25, SC

In the old days in western Pennsylvania,
when the people had little money TO pay
for teachers and could spare their boys but
little time from the work Of the field,
school kept almost necessarily during
the few weeks when it was in session, with
no Saturday holidays and very brief re-
cesses. At one little school house among
the mountains an old fashioned Irish
schoolmaster was once employed who kept
his boys grinding steadily at their tasks,
but gave them permission to nibble from
their lunch baskets sometimes as they
worked.
One day. while the master was instruct
ing a class in the rule of three, he noticed
that one of his pupils was paying more at
tention to a piece Of apple pie than to the
/ lesson "Ar1ah, there" said the master

In Two Years Among the Savages Of
New Guinea W. d. Pitcairn describes
how the natives Of that country drive piles
The people have a curious way Of driving
piles. We gave them a rope which they
fixed round the head of the pile, leaving
the two cnts, dangling. Several natives
got hold of each end and pulled alternate
ly until the pile was worked down to the
~ tired depth.
The piles are made Of white mangrove,
and in order to prevent the ravages Of the
cobra insect, it is best to tar the piles well
or better still-though very eNpensive-tC
copper them all over.
The flooring Of house is Of cane, the
walls are made Of the bark or skin Of tn,
palm. and the roof Of the leaves Of the
sage palm. which have TO be put on sep
arately the leaves overlapping little, anC
on the outside are placed some branches o
the cocoanut palm.

Sometimes apses of life insurance poll
cies are due to the financial disability OF
the policy holders. Such case recently
came before the renewal department OF
one of the big companies. A man who
held a policy for 5000 on the semitontine
plan allowed it TO lapse, after having paid
premiums for eight years. According to
the rules, his heirs would receive all the
premiums that he had paid for three years,
but he would receive nothing. For two
years nothing was heard Of him, but then
he applied to be reinstated 1t appeared
that because of financial reYerses he had
been unable to meet his premiums, but his
health had remained unimpaired. His
finances had improved again, so that he
was able to pay all the back premiums
with interest, and as he passed the medical
examination satisfactorily he was restored
to the class in which he had started ten
wears before. The others in this class lost
nothing by his reinstatement, whereas he
gained greatly
There are no written rules to renewals of
lapsed policies, and frequently they depend
entirely upon the discretion Of the officials.
The local companies rarely go into details
of cases outside Of the city, but hold their
agent, responsible for them. While there
would appear to be opportunity Of fraud,
through collision between the applicants
/ for renewals and the agents, yet the off
/ cials here say that it is very rarely prac-
/ ticed. Persons who allow their policies to
/ lapse are seldom notified of that fact. 1t is
/ to their advantage to keep them secure,
and it is taken for granted when they fail
to pay the premiums that they have done
so Intentionally. Occasionally statements
are sent out just before the beginning OF
the year to delinquents, and they have a
limited time in which to apply for rein.

He Loved Chickens.

Children always recognized their friend
in Professor Sophocles, late of Harvard uni
versity. A group of curly heads usually
appeared in his window on Glass day. A
stray cat knew him at once. By him spiders
were watched, and their thin wants sup
piled. But his solitary heart went out
most unreservedly and with the most pa
thetic devotion toward fragile chickens,
and out of these uninteresting little birds
he elected a degree Of responsive intelli-
gence which was startling to see.
One of his dearest friends, coming home
from a journey, brought him a couple Of
bantam eggs. When Matched and grown
they developed into a little five inch bur
nished cock, which shone like jewel or
bird of paradise, and a more sober but ex-
quisite hen.
These two. Frank and Nina, and all
their numerous progeny for many years,
Sophocles trained to the hand. Each knew
its name, and would run from the flock
when its white haired keeper called, and
sitting upon his hand or shoulder, would
show queer signs of affection, not hesitat-
ing even to crow.
The same generous friend who gave the
eggs gave shelter also to the winged con
sequences, and thus it happened that three
times a day, as long as he was able to leave
his room, SOphocles went to that house
where the Harvard Annex is now sheltered
to attend his pets.
To eat a chicken was a kind Of cannibal-
ism from which his whole nature shrank.
/ Il do not eat what love-" he said, reject
/ ing the bowl Of chicken broth that was
pressed upon him in his last sickness

Contracts That Bind Minors.

There are certain contracts that minor
is bound to keep and which can be enforced
against him as against an adult, Certainly
it would be a most unfortunate thing in a
moral aspect if young people were to feel
that the law lays no duties or responsible
ties upon them. 1t would be a bad thing
for society as well as for individuals
There are for these reasons a few con-
tracts binding upon minors OF these the
two most important are, first, contracts for
necessaries, by which technical term Of the
law is meant articles needful to sustain
the child in a manner suitable to his social
station, and, second, his marriage contract
A child has no right to make purchases
for himself and have them charged to his
parent unless the parent has given him
permission to do so or unless the articles
are necessaries and the child was in actual
need of them. \ dealer who sells a suit of
clothes to boy and charges them to the
father is bound to prove that it was done
by the fathers permission or else that the
boy was in actual want of the clothes and
that they were necessary and suitable.
If a child is wrongfully driven away from
/ home he is then theoretically in actua
/ want and can buy necessaries and charge
/ them to his parents but if he puts himsel
/ in the wrong by running away from hom'
his condition is then truly pitiable, for h'
thus loses entirely his right to pledge hi
fathers credit even for necessaries. -Chau
