Tha Wrong Place.

Mrs. Elizabeth Storrs Meade, the
stately president of Mount Holtoke
college, visiting Springfield to attend
a temperance meeting, was rather
confused by conflicting directions as
TO where the conference was to be
held. At length she walked into a
large room and a large crowd and set
tied herself comfortably, looking
about her with satisfaction that SO
many men were interested in the
cause and were present to discuss it,
Then it dawned upon her as equally
strange and not SO gratifying that her
own sex was so sparsely represented.
She felt vague distrust, and leaned
over to a neighbor: This is the Meth
odist church, isn't it?" she inquired.
No, ma'am," was the bland answer;

A Mouse Most in Her Hair.

A young lady of Hartford, Conn,
had an experience the other night
which she survived with such GOODNESS
and bravery that she ought to be en-
rolled with the heroines of the cen
tury. She had been asleep but was
awakened by something or other that
finally resolved itself into mouse
running across the bedspreId. She
went to sleep again. In short time
she was again awakened and this
time the mouse was in the hair, hav-
ing made snug nest in the mass that
lay upon the pillow. After whole
night Of similar experiences the young
lady got up in the morning to find
that her hair was a rich brown, just
as it had been when she retired the
night before.

.Don,t whip the Children.

The old iron clad methods of punish
ment are happily fast passing away.
There has been q vast change in pub
lie sentiment during the last century.
The rod is spared" these days by hu-
man9 parents; so are the dark closets
and other horrors But it may be
asked, do the gentle reproofs, the
chilling looks, the deprivation OF
treats, accomplish the much to be
desired results? Are the children
better behaved than of yore?
There may not be SO much outward
fear of their elders There may be
less awe and reverence; fewer out
ward and visible signs OF an inward
respect for authority, but surely there
is less inward. corroding rebellion.
While children may not love their
parents more, they are on better terms
with them than formerly. The father
who is chummy with his boy gets
down to that eager, inquiring, rest
less little soul and explains, visits ano
| encourages, does not need to cut
birch CAD or buy horsewhip in order
to maintain discipline And the mother
who sympathizes, cuddles and play
with her children can keep her slippers
on her feet and her hair brush on the
dressing table. The holding off ol
children is a fruitful source OF dis
obedience. They need love, tender
ness and sympathy as much as Hover
need air and sunshine.

Our party consisted OF eleven mem

Irishman-"Teddy" o. Brien, by name,
who, more for the sake of ''divumint

he had said. had engaged with us as
cook. And a truly wonderful cook he
was!
While some members of our party
were amateur botan:sts, BIOLOGISTS
naturalists or taxiderm!sts, we were
all enthusiastic explorers and hunters
and we fairly reveled in the wealtn
of animal and vegetable life about us
But there was one amphl blous ami
NAL, the manatee, and seml-amphlo-
ious reptile, the anaconda, we had
not vet obtained. We had seen scores
of the frst while ascending the river,
but had never secured one.
One evening we were bemoaning
our bad luck in this respect, when

After iuhaling air for half a minute

plainly saw by the ripples, began to
