Let the boy fish, boat, canoe, swim

him If possible and encourage healthfu1

sible, but don't teach him, nor allow him
toacquire, unlawful and inhuman tricks.

The success which attended the use Of
the electric light in fishing of the Cali-
fornia coast has led to the devising Of
various improved apparatus for that pur-
pose. One of these consists Of large
iron frame interlaced with netting, which
can be opened and closed at the will Of
the operator. An electric light incased
in lantern is lowered into the net, the
electricity being furnished by motor
in the bow of the boat. As, the boat
moves along the network is thrown open,
and the bright light Of the lamp, which
is seen at great distance in the clear
water, arouses the curiosity Of the ash,
which readily swim into the trap. This
is the modern variant Of the old method
Of destroying fish from canoe by torch
light. Exchange.

The Rev. Joseph Haven, who preached
in Rochester, N. H., during the last
quarter Of the last century, has been al
ways remembered for his genial spirit
and his inexhaustible humor. One story
told of him has many parallels, but it is
quite as likely to be true in his case as
in any.
The boy had been guilty of some grave
offense, and yet would not confess it.
II can tell who did it, p said the parson,
and accordingly he called together all
the boys suspected and explained to them
that he had confined rooster under a
kettle in a darlened room. One after
another they must pass in and touch the
kettle. When the guilty boy touched Il, he
might expect to hear the rooster crow.
The lads filed In and out again and
were made to display their fingers, All
but those Of one lad were sooty. He, the
guilty one, had not ventured to touch
the telltale kettle.--Youth's Companion.

Tho Best Kind Of Exercise.

There is no single exercise which COM
bines so many health giving qualities as
riding. 1t is peculiarly valuable to
children, for it is the most certain and
gentle developer of the back and stom-
ach muscles and imparts tone to the
entire system that cannot possibly be
attained in any other way. Even foot
ball, the hardest of all games, falls
short of having the same invigorating
effect on the boy. II this be true for
the boy-and such it is now generally
admitted to be--how much more neces-
sary is riding to the young girl who has
no game but lawn tennis, which fails to
exercise the most important parts of her
body?
Few boys and girls, and almost as few
men and women, think twice Of the val
ne of different kinds of exercise to them,
or would know much about it If they
did think. Any exercise of course, mod.
erately taken, is better than none, but
the exercise which acts upon arms and
legs only is of not one-half the value Of
that which acts on the body, the chest,
stomach and back. When, then, an ex-
ercisc is found that acts on all, its value
is apparent without further argument.

The English Admiral and the pey.

The Moors hold by their boards when
they swear in order to give weight to
their oath, which after this formality
they rarely violate. The length of beard
seems to weigh with them more than the
stock of brains.
Admiral Keppel was sent to Algiers to
demand satisfaction for the injuries done
to his Britannia majesty's subjects by
their corsairs The dey, enraged at the
boldness Of the ambassador, exclaimed
"that he wondered at the insolence Of
the English monarch in sending him d
message by a foolish, beardless boy.
The admiral, somewhat nettled, re-
piled that if his master had supposed
wisdom was to be measured by the
length of the beard he would doubtless
have sent the dey he goat.
This answer so enraged the dey that
he ordered his mutes to attend with the
bowstrings, saying that the admiral
should pay for his boldness with his life
Nothing daunted by this threat, the EN-
bassador took the dey to the window,
and showing him the English feet said
II it was his pleasure to pat him to
death there were Englishmen enough
in that fleet to make him a glorious fu-
neral pile.
The dey, who wore long beard, took
the hint from the man who had none.--

Light shoes, short shoes and clumsy
shoes produce corns by COMPRISING,
cramping and rubbing against the joints.
A great many of these pedal bleinishes
are hereditary. In any case 1t Is o good
plan to suppress them. Every medicine
merchant has variety of ''cures," and
nearly all give temporary relief. A
poultice made Of vinegar soaked bread
crumbs will cure little corn in one
night. 1t is not advisable to let corn
grow. Either rub down the formation
with pumice stone or remove 1t with a
knife. A little opposition will discour-
age it. provided sensible shoes are worn.
In pedicuring, as in manicuring, the feet
should be soaked in hot water and as
much of the waste material brushed and
rubbed off as possible. New York

rorrettInr once Chlldren,

II left my children standing there,
exactly thereis It was in one Of the
stores in Temple place, and the mother
who had lost her two little girls pointed
with absolute decision to the place where
she was certain she had told them to
wait for her while she went to another
counter to look at a bargain. A small
commotion of inquiry and search at once
buzzed through the store. Presently
one Of the head men stepped to the door
and looked up and down the street to
see If the lost children had strayed out
of doors.
In front of another store q few doors
up the street q small crowd was collect
ing about two little girls who were ask

And in his turn he began to sigh.
Meanwhile the pretty girl had reflected.
She must avoid gossip. She accordingly
ran to the house Of the good priest to

"Truly?" exclaimed Jacqueline, over

There Jacqueline freed herself from
her load.
She felt herself lighter by many pounds
after she had deposited the kiss upon the
cold stones of the altar.

1t may seem superfluous to say that
one can not put old heads on young
shoulders, yet 1t is truth of which
many parents require to be reminded
who are very anxious for their boys to
"get on" and who deplore with up
lifted eyes their offspring's fondness Of
adventure books" That is the tend
ency of the average boy. Occasionally
the precocity of genius asserts itself in
a Goethe, Shelley or Byron; but.

months for having threatened Harriet

gone to the complainant, accused her Of
being an cold witch" and asked her to
take spell off his sister. He said he
