cutest, quaintest, handsomest old
buildings we have been in. Last week
we snatched a rest from work and did
some sightseeing. Meeting yesterday,
on the way to the Abertillery concert,
we all compared notes and told of the
different things we had seen. Most of
the Scrantonians took a little run up
into Ireland and saw the cities of Cork,
Queenstown, Dublin, and took in the

Cleveland Before the Camera.

Sometimes the unexpected prevents the photographer from getting a celebrity be- fore his camera. This happened at Lake wood two days previous to the second inauguration of President Cleveland. Both Mir. and Mrs. Cleveland were will ing to grant the favor I asked, and the nurse and Miss Ruth were accordingly sent for. 'I fear you will find the nurse & little suspicious" Mir. Cleveland said. The nurse came in promptly, but with out Ruth. She put her foot down. as women will sometimes, and declared:
 ''She shall not have her picture taken today. If she should, MT. Cleveland will never live to be inaugurated That set tied 1t, for the will of Ruth's custodian was law in that household. Then turned to Mir. Cleveland and asked him to sit for me.
 Well" he said in his calm way, "you photographers bother me great deal, and do not care much about having my picture taken"
 Let me take you standing in front of your house. Possibly you may not care particularly now, but 10 years hence these pictures will recall pleasant days and scenes"
 The idea seemed to strike him favor ably.
 "You may get them all together for me some day." he replied. And my re ..1est was granted.--G. Pach in New York Herald.

Tun Safe Profosaioua.

A writer of verse not wholly unknown to fame rejoices in the possession of a charming little country place not many miles from the metropolis, the lawns of which are carefully looked after by clever young Irishman. It so happened that during the business depression of last summer the young Irishman's brother was thrown out of employment by the shutting down of the mills which were the chief industry of the town, and John, the poets gardener, was very much overcome at the prospect of hay ing to support his fraternal relative through the winter.
 His employer had frequently asked after the brothers health and encour- aged his gardener to confide his woes in him, believing that sympathy begets good service, and recently John said, in response to one of these inquiries;
 He's shtill out uv worruk, SOFT. That's tn throuble wid worrukin in mills. Oi wuz tellin Patsey lasht noight he'd betther get into some other thrade like yures or moine, SOFT"
 Like yours or mine, ehP" said the poet.

Education Based on Child Study.

In order to make it possible that the parent, the teacher, the physician. the minister, the merchant, may know how to treat the child, it is necessary that the child be studied, analyzed-cata- logued, one might say. It seems to me that the best way to do this Is to tram young men and young women in our colleges and schools in the study of the child, and so send out number of peo- pie into the various walks of life who can get into" the life of the child. If this study is scientifically and properly carried on, there is no doubt in my mind but that it will revolutionize all the present methods of approach to the child. I predict that some of my read CTS will live long enough to wonder how it was possible for colleges and univer- sities to have existed so long, and to have differentiated so many departments of study, and yet to have waited almost till the beginning of the twentieth cen tury to create a department of study which is-shall I say worth more than all the others put together? They will live to see the day when the science of the child will have taught the world more in 50 years about the child than the world learned during the preceding 5, 900 years. Forum

She SIIenced Depew.

Some of the best of Chicago's post prandIal speakers are of the clergy, and one of the brightest of all of them is Rev. P. s. Henson, the popular pastor of the First Baptist church. At a dinner not long ago he was called upon without any warming, and he acquitted himself as cleverly as he always does under such circumstances He incidentally referred to great men who had been spoiled, like children, by being made much of, and he stated that the only great man who had not been spoiled by being "honized" was Daniel.
 Dr. Henson referred in this connec- ion, too, to Dr. Chauncey NJ. Depew, the silver tongued New Yorker, who speaks best after he has lost his appetite, and of him he told story. Dr. Depew, he said. was in attendance at Baptist so- cial affair once upon time. and he had a seat next to good sister. whom he at tempted to patronize. Do you know, madam, he said to her between courses, "I came very near being Baptist my self" The lady expressed mild surprise, and Dr. Depew proceeded to make it a little stronger. "Yes, I narrowly es- capped immersion once," he said. ''In- deed," said the lady. Why, Dr. De- pew, never thought you could disap- pear from the public gaze long enough for that" whereat Dr. Depew busted himself with the next course and forev- CT after held his peace-on that occasion at least.-Chicago Post.

Tampins and Ramming Boreholes.

An innovation in mining work is an invention for tamping and ramming boreholes. The hole itself is made of a smaller dianeter at the inner end where the cartridge is placed. A small wood disk rests against the shoulder made by the smaller hole and protects the cartridge. The tamping consists of blocks of compressed clay, which are broken up in the hole by the rammer. Tue disk, blocks and rammer head are all perforated so that they can be thread ed on to the fuse wires. Clay blocks are made at very cheap rate by sim- pie machine, and by their use uniform ity in the tamping material is secnred. --St. Louis Globe Democrat.

Vaccinated 47 Times,

A young man named Werts, Of
Williamsport, has discovered new
method of vaccination and most
successful one it has proved in his
case. His little sister, who has just
been vaccinated, used hair brush
to allay the itching of her arm. II
happened that Werts had pur-
chased a new wooden shirt about
that time, one that nearly sets you
crazy, and began rubbing his back
with the same hair brush his sister
had used. The next morning AZ
different sores had broken out upon
his back and an examination by a
physician revealed the fact that
they all comprised a plantation Of
vaccinations.

Speckled Trout

Only few weeks remain until the
opening of the trout season. II is
morally certain that long before that
time hundreds of trout will have been
captured contrary to law. This sec.
tion contains number of trout
streams and they should be be looked
after, and violators of the law pros
ecuted to the full extent of that law.
The penalty for catching trout out
OF season is severe. The act of 1885,,
the last legislation on the point,
reads as follows:
1T shall be unlawful for any per-
son to catch, kill or expose to sale or
have in his or her possession after
the same has been caught or killed,
lany spreckled trout, save only
from the 18th day of April to the 18th
|day of July, under penalty of $40
for each trout so killed or had poses
sion, but this act shall not prevent
any person from catching trout in
nets in waters owned by himself to
Istock other waters" Half the pen
Ialtygoes to the informer.
