She Becomes Real Interested

Mrs. General Custer devotes the greater
part of her time to reading in public a
paper called ION the Plains''
In the course of this paper she describes
hunt out OF a western camp or post. Mrs.
Custer is good hunter and has often &C
companied her husband on these expedi-
tions. She says that when reading the de-
scription she practically goes through the
whole thing. She hears the horn, the dogs,
the calls Of the men, the chatter Of hoofs.
She feels the motion of her horse, sees the
stretch of prairie and is thrilled by the ex-
citement of the chase
AT the end she is as tired as if she had
really spent hours in the saddle, and can
scarcely bring herself back to the realities
Of her surroundings-N York Recorder.

Remarks on the UntInleliness of Boy

Remarks on the UntInieIiness of Boys
 As a matter of fact boy never should laugh at his father until he (the boy) is eighteen years of age at least Earlier than that, according to the Minneapolis Tribune, it is not safe. bc!y over near the university has for several evenings stood up to eat his meals, and all because he neglected the above rule of conduct. His father takes great pride in a Hambletonisn cclt he is raising. The old man fairly delights in puttering around the stable, and he can hardly wait until that colt is four years old and trots mile to harness in 2:05J5, as it surely win. The other morning the pater was ftissing around in an old silk hat and equally venerable grcatcoat, pitch fork in hand, and while he was work ing about the colts heels the boy gave the animal its feed. The colt does not allow any familiarities while feeding, and when the old man, in a stOoping position, backed up against him the
 
 colt lashed out with both feet. The man stood 80 near that the kick broke no bones, but he was shot as from catapult right through the elapboards on the side of the barn. His head was driven through his tile, and when he extricated himself from the splinterS the rim of his headgear hung around his neck like a ruff. He regarded the whole business as rough, and delivered an oration through his hat which the boy regarded as amusing. The y'oungster laughed. First he stood and laughed, then he laid down and laughed and rolled over and over and frugged himself and still laughed But when that devoted father got clear from the wrecl1age he seized the nearest strap, and the boy has not smiled once since. The boy knows now that he is not big enough to laugh at bis father.
