The dear old man had been terror
in the family and had only given the
diamonds to I4eander's wife because he
hated that nephew little less than the
others, whom he hoped to make hor-
ribly jealous and angry and-had sue

When Leander asked his wife to keep
her diamonds in the bank she promptly
declined.
But you surely will not wear them,

"Why not?" she asked.
"It would injure our prospects and
not be consistent with our position"

AN ESSAY ON BONES.
A Ten-Year- Old Boy Writes Something
You Don't Know, Perhaps.

You Don't Know, Perhaps.
Bones are the framework Of the hui
man body. If had no bones In me I
should not have so much shape as
have now and grandma would be glad,
but I like to have motion. Bones give
me motion because they are something
hard for motion to cling to. II had
no bones, my brains, lungs, head, and
larger blood vessels would be lying
around in me sort Of loose-like, and
might get hurried, but now the bones
get hurried, but not much lest 1t is a
hard hit. II my bones were burned l
should be all brittle, and you could
crumble me up because all the animal
would be out of me. II / was soaked
in a kind Of acid, would be timber.
Teacher showed us some bones that had
been soaked. could tie knot In one.
had rather be soaked than burned.
Some Of my bones don't grow snug to
my other bones like the branches Of
tree do, and I'm glad they don't, for II
they did couldn't play leap-frog and
other good games l know. The reason
they don't grow that way is because
they have joints. Joints is good things
to have in bones. There are three
kinds. The ball and socket joint is like
my shoulder joint. Teacher showed 1t
to us, only it was the thigh Of COW.
One end was round and smooth and
whitish, that is the ball end. The other
end Is the socket. 1t is saucer-like and
oils itself, Another joint is the hinge
joint, like my elbow. 1t swings back
and forth, oiling itself, and never
creaks like the schOol-room door does.
The other joint amt much Of joint.
It's the skull and don't have no motion.
All my bones put together in the
right place make a skeleton. II leave
out some or put some in their wrong
places it amt no skeleton. Crippled
and deformed people don't have no.
skeletons. Some animals have their
skeleton on the outside. I'm glad I
amt them animals, for my skeleton
like it is on the chart wouldn't look
we'll on the outside.

and she dropped into the launch. Da

How BARRIERS Are Made.

A barber had been describing his
methods Of teaching his apprentices.
After lathering, he says, "the great les
son is to learn how to handle the razor
with frmness and lightness, and once
that is known, it's half the battle won.
I first practice my lad on a glass soda
water bottle. He has to lather it thick
ly, and with the razor only, get all the
soap off and make it quite glossy again.
That gives him practice in rounding
surface safely; when he can do that, 1
make him lather and shave a broom

in the wood. The next few lessons are
devoted to shaving a hairy surface.
