have salt water baths. This bathing
beach has been open to the public
for several years, but it would seem
that the youths and men and even lalies
of Washington have just this season
begun to learn that there is an excel
lent opportunity offered to everyone on
these warm summer evenings to take a
fine plunge in the Potomac on a beach
that is now as safe as it can be made,
with lifeboat and guard continually on
hand, free bathing houses that are well
taken care of, and, in fact, everything
that one could find at a seaside resort.
The beach is fast becoming popular
resort. and it is patronized each day by
about two hundred of the young and
old of the city. Since last season a
number of repairs have been made, and
with the increasing patronage the ac-
commodations are fast becoming too
small.
There is no muddy bottom at this
point in the river. 1t is as smooth and
fine a sandy bed as nature ever graded
and rolled. Cape May has a loamy
strata just beneath the sand. Atlantic
City has dirty sand. Chesapeake beach
and Bay Ridge become mud puddles
within half an hour after crowd en-
tiers the water. The Potomac beach is
as solid and clean floor as nature ever
gave to any river.
The bath houses are more commodi-
GUS and comfortable than the coops and
cubby holes at seaside resorts, where a
man has no room, even for idea, but
must do all of his thinking before get
ting inside. On the Potomac beach
each boat house will hold four persons
without the necessity of any ~ them
going outside when they wish to put
on their hats; but should the width of
the brim of the straw hats this summer
increase, il may be necessary to allow
but one person at time to occupy a
bath house. of these there are fifty
for white men; and on the opposite
side of the beach, about seventy-five
yards away, are the houses of the col
ored. Separated from the houses for
the white men are half dozen nicely
furnished houses for ladies, and each
dav they are occupied. Most of the
ladies who have bathed at the beach
thus far have been married ladies'; but
few little girls, accompanied by their
parents, have been in this season.
They are just learning of the
existence of a pleasure resort near
home; bathing place which some
people would travel many miles 10 en-
Joy. The rules of the beach regarding
decorous action and care that trifling
should not be INDUCED in to endanger
anyones life are very stringent. and
the wisdom of this is proved by the
fact that there have been no accidents
thus far during the season. The beach
is free to every one who complies with

self-Complacency.

There are some people whose self
complacency seems hard to disturb A
well-grounded idea of their own value
and self-importance may account for
their enviable state of mind, and it is
comfortable never to be troubled with
doubt that one is not lust as good
as the next man" But another cause
of assertive self-complacency must be
q quickness of wit which can always
cap some one else's achievement with
another equally as good. Whether or
not the self-complacent mood be agree
able to the egotist or the reverse. its
too frequent display is apt to make a
person appear somewhat ridiculous.
An cid copy book axiom declares that
'modesty is the banner of merit" and
boastful persons are apt to make claims
which their social world discounts IL
is well for most of us to aim at high
er eminence, not 20 rest satisfied with
our present attachments. The poet
who speaks of "a divine despair" had
not toolishly complacent people in his
minds eye.-Harper's Bazaar.

The Auctioneer Mistook His Mods for BIDS
| An auction sale was in progress the
other day in West Philadelphia, and
after a majority of the contents had
been sold a refrigerator was put up.
1t was a good-loolSing article. and ten
dollars was bid.
Ridiculous" said the auctioneer;
"who bids eleven dollars?"
A man in the corner nodded. and for
4 moment itlooled as though he would
get bargain. but somebody else shout
ed twelve dollars. The auctioneer
looked at the man in the corner and
got another bid; and after some delay
somebody went a dollar better.
Fourteen I'm bid" shouted the
man with the hammer. and he shouted
it four or five times. and just before
he declared the lot sold came another
nod from the quiet bidder. and the LOT
was sold.
Your ice box. What nameP" asked
bookkeeper. But the man only nodded
his head and appeared not to hear.
What name?" was again shouted
and somebody leaned over and repeat
ed the question in stentorian tones
The man made a quick movement
rubbed his eyes. AMI wanted to know
what was the matter.

NO, sir" said an old conductor on
one of the lines running east at the
union depot the other day, 1.-THE rail

While the conductor was talking a
pretty girl in a neat tailor-made dress
entered the telegraph office and leaned
over the register. This was rather un-
usual, as the office is used only by rail-
road employees "Bill," the conductor,
sauntered into the office. and the girl,
turning around and seeing the conduc-
tors badge on his cap, asked:
DO you 20 east to-night?"
"Yes."
"Well, I'm eft the Rio Grande. and I
want to go east to get job. Win you
take me?"
The old conductor might have been
bowled over with ball of tissue paper.
The pretty girl took out her card and
satisfied the telegraph men in the sta
ton that her story was true. She once
more appealed to the conductor. In
stead of turning her down." as some
of the boys feared he would. he gave
her his arm and escorted her out of the
office and put her in the parlor car of

A fact remarkable to our civilized
women is the one that Alaska squaws
make their ages public. They wear a
piece of wood or bone in the lower lip
the size of the ornament indicating the
age of the owner. When girl mar
ries her lower lip is pierced and peg
of wood or a piece of bone the size of a
pea is inserted As she grows older
this is increased in size until il is
almost as wide as her chin and one
fourth of an inch high. The result is
naturally most unsightly. There is an
interesting family at Fort Wrangel
which illustrates perfectly this pecul-
lar custom. II includes four genera
tions. A young girl may be seen sit
ting at one side of the one-roomed
square frame house. while her mother.
grandmother and great grandmother
are squatted on the earthen floor near
the door, offering mats and baskets to
the ships passengers who come on
shore. There is no disfguring orna-
ment on the girls chin. but there Is a
big one on the lip of the great-grand-
er.-Philadelphia I ines.

a common road scraper in moving the
earth to the lowest side. Repeating
this operation. circular or oblong ex-
cavation is made, with strong earth
banks Then place four rocks on the
bottom, each as large as half bushel
measure, letting them rest far enough
apart to be covered by a large, fiat
stone, under which the shy fish
may hide. One such covert is
sufficient for a pond of two or
three square rods in extent, while
several should be provided in larger
ponds. If possible make cold spring
tributary to the pond, or if practicable
make the pond around it, utilizing the
fountain head for the water supply.
Trout will succeed best in cold spring
water, but common creek water, if
pure, will serve the purpose. Spread
sand and gravel over a portion of the
pond bed, but leave some of it with
earth bottom. The slope surrounding
the pond should be kept in grass. so
that rims will not wash dirt into the
water. A neat gravel walk should en-
circle the pond, and shade trees plant
ed about it will serve to keep the wa
ter cool.
When angling for trout in the
brooks it will be noticed that more
than one-half of the fish caught are SO
little injured by the hook that they
will live if Immediately placed in fresh
water Carry a large pail, and by fire.
quently changing the water two-thirds
of the catch may be saved for stocking

cry. Very young trout can be fed on
boiled eggs chopped fine, and larger
ones on fresh beef cut into small
pieces. Other scraps that the fish will
eat, and which will not pollute the
water, may be given them. They
should be fed at least once a day, and
in the cool of the evening they will
frequently leap from the water to
snap gamily at the food that is thrown
to them.
Trout spa wn in September and DC

may be encouraged to lay their eggs

The bird was an old one, just knocked
down with a charge of shot and handed
over in a dazed condition to my infor-
mant He recovered from his wounds,
but was always a very sedate bird. He
had the run of large house and was
one day observed in crouching atti-
tude pressed tightly into the angle
formed by the wall and floor. He had
discovered that .he place was infested
by mice aud was watching a crevice.
The instant that a mouse showed his
head the crow had him in his beak and
would kill him by striking him with
lightning rapidity two or three times
ON the floor and then swallow him.
From that time mouse-catching was
the birds sole occupation and amuse-
ment, and he went about the house in
absolute silence and in the stealthy
manner of a cat. -Fortnightly Review.

THE LARGE FAMILY.
There l. Where Most Happiness Is to BE
Found.

There Is Where Most Happiness Is to Be
Found.
II we may draw an inference from
certain discussions which have recent
IL interested readers here and abroad,
the new woman" whoever that nebu-
lOus parsonage may be, intends to
frOwn upon the large family. One
| child. or two at most, il is gra vely as
serted, should satisfy the mother heart
and I'll the mother arms, so that she
may have time for duties and pleasures
and the pursuit of ambitions in which
collaborating and collaborating play a
very subordinate part. She around
whom the large family gathers, the
family mum bered by six or seven or
nine children, sons and daughters
growing together in beauty, develop
ing in the world of the home as only
brothers and sisters can. is regarded as
an object of pity, if not of contempt.
With lofty disapproval of the in
tentiOns of the Creator, who made the
race, man and " woman, one the compile
ment of the other. these latter-day
champions of Woman. written with a
capital, look scUrnfully on the wife
who is satisfied with quiet home work
and ways, and who accepts mother
hood as her crown of glory, her high
est dignity and her dearest joy.
They forget or ignore. in their COM
passion for the woman who bears more
than one babe, that with every little
one whom she cradles against her
breast the mothers whole self is re-
newed. So that she puts on beauty like
garment. and is literally blessed
among women when she broods over
her child.
In the old days and the old races the
childless, not the many-childed, wom-
an was the object of cOmmiseration.
Am not | better to thee than ter
sonS?" exclaimed the husband of
Hannah. as over and over she implored
with passionate entreaty the gift from
God of the child so long withheld.
Dear as the husband was, the bond be-
tween him and the wife drew more
closely when they called a little child
their own.
One has frequently noticed. some
times with wonder. that the middle
aged mother of large family actually
looks and certainly feels younger than
her contemporary who has either had
no children or only one or two.
Strangely enough, the large family is
as easily brought up and educated,
and in the end turns out usually as
well, as the small one. The more
crowded the nest, the closer the fiedg-
lings press together.
Self-denial. family love, family loyal
", thrive better where there is reason
for their exercise and growth.
There are good times in the family
circle large enough TO have enjoyment
within itself. and not dependent alto
gether on outsiders. The mirthful
dance, the games, the evening songs,
the studies, the mutual pride. the pro-
tecting of the younger by the older,
and the uplooking of the younger to
the older. are possible in the large as
they are not in the small household.
And she who stands at the helm, guild
ing. influencing. controlling, moulding
her sons and daughters. need long for
no wider privileges nor yearn for great
er respOnsibility.-lI Bazaar.
