WHEN THINGS GO WRONG.
The Best Thing to DO Is to Accept the
Situation.


Situation.
Crossing the town the other day in
haste TO catch q train writes Margaret
r. 6angster in Harpers Round Table.
the horse cGT was three times blocked
by great vans which stood upon the
track. The van drivers appeared TO be
unloading their goods in q very leisure
ly manner; to US in the car, with the
precious moments slipping away like
grains Of sand in the hour glass, they
seemed exceedingly slow ana unhur-
ried. l looked about on my fellow pas
sengers. Some had flushed and angry
faces. some could not sit stifl. but
tapped the floor with their feet and ut
tered escl6mat4ons and looked at their
watches. One or two stepped out with
their Dags and walked hastily onward
But a dear cid lady in the corner of the
car was a pattern Of sweetness and
anna bility and l heard her observe TO
her neighbor: We will probably lose
our train, but at this time Of the dav
there are trains every half hour. and
is never well to be put out by little in
cjdents Of this sort" She had the right
philosophy.
Through life. when little things go
wrong, It Gill be wise to accept the sit
uation without fccttng, and by main
tanning conposuce you viii often be
able u set them right again

Each Mis- Own Weather Pronbet.

Every man who owns a bicycle is now
his own weather prophet. He holds in
his hand the long-sought solution Of the
problem how to make rain.
If his wheel gets muddy and ne lets
Ii stay 30, elGar weather will be assured.
If he attempts to clean off the ynud a
shower will result within twelve hours.
If he cleans and pOlishes the wheel so
that it Shines Ike new, a terrific thun-
dershower Will fall as soon as he tries
to go for ride.
A large number Of wheelmen have
found this to be a fact and as you can't
ride a wheel during wet weather, the
fact that so many muddy wheels are
seen proves that they are left dirty TO
avoid causing a rainstorm.-Louisviile

Linnaeus saw the necessity Of bring

this, he recognized that subdivision
Of these groups was desirable: that
many plants with the same number Of
stamens yet differed considerably
among one another; and these smaller
groups he called geaus, plural genera.
Such a genus now, for example, is the

He saw that further subdivision could

Result of the Appeal in Behalf of the
 Schools.

Result of the Appeal in Behalf of tn @
 Schools.
 The board of trustees of Phoenix school district do not yet know whether the circular proposition to the patrons of the school will be accepted or whether the schools will prematurely close next Friday.
 Parents and guardians of 173 pupils of the central school building have made favorable response. Many have not been heard from yet; some oppose the proposition on the principle that public schools should not be supported by private means and others offer the more and only reasonable objection that they cannot afford to pay tuition. As has been stated at least fifty per cent of the present attendance must be maintained so that it will be necessary, in the central school alone, for the parents and guardians of nearly 100 more pupils to come forward.
 Principal Cole of the East End schools, said last night that he believed that much more than fifty per cent of the attendance there could be main tained. The circulars had been sent out only the day before and great many parents had hastened to encourage the movement. No report has been re- ceived from the West End school.
 The educational exigency is develop ing sentiment of laudable Gberality. Many parents are offering to pay the tuition of their own children and of one, two or three others.
 But whether or not all the grades may be kept open to the end of the year strong effort will be made to hold the graduating class together.
