 There is nearly always crowd o blue uniformed men lettering about the Central police station The placs seems to have an attraction Tor tnem when oh duty.
 One of the most entertaining story telIers is Officer James Hendrickx Sr., but it must be admitted that many of hi. narratives will not bear too close an examination. Yesterday q ternoon hs was in his happsala mood and there was a lively ratfiing of rheumatic bones when he reuArksd;
 New Jersey is noted for its mos auitoos principally. l have oesen heard my grandfather tell of . re markable incident that occurred 70 him near Newark. He had just ar rived in the town and put up at . small hotel where there were no mosquito bars, and man with . leather skin would wake up and hnd much of himself missing. My grand father was not acclimated and his flesh was as tender as love poem, So he spent the afternoon wandering about and wondering what he would do when he met the winged soldiss in battle array.
 He was the softest hearted man you ever saw. I've known him send money to the starving heroine in . play at the theater. and once hs bought a pound of lard to grease . squeaking coal cart wheel. The ve- hicle seemed to be in pain, he said, and it brought tears to his eyes to witness it's apparent suffering.
 While my grandfather was walk ing along he noticed . large yellow spider in the street It was beau. tiful creature and the old gentleman paused a moment to admire it's gor- geous coloring. Just then . wagon dashed up and in another moment the spider would have been crushed to death beneath the wheels. At the risk of his life grandfather stopped the horse and bore the frightened spider to a place of safety.
 Tt seemed somewhat dazed and un- able to care for itself, and he finally put it in little box and carried it up to his room There he whilcd away the time feeding 1t flies and otherwise rninistering to it's comfort At length the supper bell rang, snd grandfather left his little guest crawling about the room and having a splendid time.
 At supper the tough skinned na- tives looked at my relative's delicate features and exchanged wicked winks. They thought of the feast the mosquitoes would have. But he went to bed, and all night long hs slept peacefully and undisturbed That spider out of pure gratitude had woven 6 web over the bed and caught every mosquito that entered the room. When grandfather awoke it was killing the few that were not already dead. The story got out anl there was such a rush to see the won- derful spectacle that the landlord charged an admittance fee and made q fortune out of itr
 When he had finished, the silence was unbroken. save by the jerky ticking of Captain Basler's Water bury. as it struggled to make up the fifteen minutes time it had lost in tho last half hour. Louisville Post.

Nothing IS 70 easily spoiled as child. Walk with your little babe . few nights when you wish to put it to sleep; or acc,istom 1t to rocking, then attempt to put it to sleep with out this habit, and see how difficult it will be to get it to sleep The parent must from the beginning of the childs existence do those things to which the child is to conform. It Is allowing children to have their own way during the first few years of their lives tl.at makes them O hard to control. Before they arc able to talk they are being rnolded by the actions of those around them.
 It Is therefore highly important that from the beginning the bcst in fiuence and example should be about the child It is . serious mistake in parents to commit their children wholly into the hands of nurse. No parent can afford to do this. even though she have . very kind and careful nurse. Every mother desires that her child bear the impress of her own image. This cannot be when 1t is with the nurse more than with the mother.
 Few people have any idea of tho extent of the part performed by nurses in the formation of society. Many a mother wonders where her son or her daughter learned these things, or formed that habit or heard such and such an expression Let her listen few minutes at the nursery door and all will be made plain. .-Housekeeper.
