one will claim it, and she will be buried
by the city.
Poor Felicitel Happy Doloroso! l
wonder what will happen to this man,
not, when the stars grow old, but TO
continue his quotation, when the leaves
of the Judgment Book unfold! Nhat
will be marked against his name? II
seems to me that it will be something
dreadful-that it ought to be something
dreadful. And as there Is a God VINO IL
lust. as well as merciful, am sure he
will suffer as he made the girl suffer
and die. This is just a story apropos
Of the table d hote.
THE INSTRUCTORS BANDS
LOOSED.
The other night there was a woman
who was queen at one of the tables Win
nine men for her subjects. She was
not particularly young she was not
particularly beautiful but she mad
certain fascination, that subtle fascln-
alienation, which IS indescrloaDle.
Sometimes she spoke French, some
times German, sometimes English. Her
wit was as bright as an electric light
in good order, and as quick as a thor
oughbred not being pulled by its jockey.
She seemed a queen in Bohemia, and
she is-well. it is funny to know VINO
She is. All day long she is Mademol-
selle Prim, who gives lessons in French
10 The children of the most sedate peo-
pie of the city. But when dinner time
comes she forgets all about the children,
all about their stupidity, all about what
q bore is teaching, and becomes herself.
And she looks more like Yvette Gull
biert than anybody I have ever seen,
for she has that queer trick of saying
what she oughtn't TO with the innocent
air of child who knows no better. l
l was forced to wonder if she mightnt
overteach a girl of 10; still, 1t isn't mln5
or my neighbor's little ones who are
under her instruction and so l didn't
have to bother about It.
LOOK BENEATH THE SURFACE.
II is strange how little people know
of the men and women to whom they in
trust their children. They offer these
beautiful, white young souls to be put
under the guidance Of somebody whose
only virtue in their eyes is that she was
recommended by Mrs. -Four Millions, TO
whose daughters she gave a perfect
French accent. The books she may use
to teach this accent, or The phrases she
may employ, makes no difference to
you. 1t is the accent you want, and
when you hear that your daughter is
devoted to her French books you are de-
lighted, and you give an order TO the
best book shop so that Mademoiselle
can get whatever she wants, and that
she might want a modern and very I'M
desirable novel doesn't enter your head.
You have so much to think about.
There is THE Society for Teaching
Crochet TO the Cannibals." and that
other one "To Introduce Vegetable Food
Among the Man Eaters These are
such swell affairs, and as you are on
the committees you must think about
them, and you pay for your daughter to
be looked after. But money won't buy
the right kind CT training for your chill
dren. 1t may purchase good teachers,
but that teaching has got to be guided
by mOther-lOve else all the hours spent
in study will amount TO nothing.
These stories are not imaginary ones;
they are true. as true as that where pun
ishment is due it will be given. and that
eventually all will be righted, and the
weak will be strengthened, and the
strong made to see now weak they hav4
been.
A long time off? You don't know.
It NAV be tomorrow, or the day after,
nobody knows, not even Bah.
