UntruthfuIness in Children.

Some Boston schoolmasters who have
been inqu,ring into the shortcomings of
children under their care have arrived at
conclusions that are interesting. They
find that the greatest weakness of boys is
carelessness, which leads them into habits
Of uncleanliness, while the greatest weak
ness of girls is a desire to please. which
leads to deception and downright untruth-
fulness. Girls seldom use coarse language.
Even those who hear improper language
at home seldom fall into the habit of using
it themselves. But they find falsehood a
vice easy to acquire and hard to conquer.
one teacher, a woman. said that among
the girls under her care we're a number
who would never think Of using coarse Ian
guage, and at the same time they would
not hesitate an instant to tell an IN
truth if by so doing there was a posi-
bility of creating a favorable impression.
Among the boys, besides the vice Of I'M
cleanliness, the teachers find the tobacco
habit the hardest to combat. And, as
might be expected, cigarettes are the form
of tobacco that gives the most trouble
The teachers try persuasion first for the
tobacco habit, and if that fails they apply
strict discipline. 1t should be mentioned
that they find the boys to be untruthful
also.
1t may be that what IS true Of Boston's
schools is true of most other public
schools. Boys and girls are about the
same the world over and they may be
correctly taught the proprieties of life
only by the most careful attention. In
this connection is it not true that parents
and teachers expect too strict an adher-
ence to veracity from little children, whose
minds cannot comprehend the Nervousness
of falsehood? Is it not true that parents
and teachers often induce children to re-
sort to falsehood to escape punishment by
their severity, when different line of pol
icy on the part of the parent or teacher
would bring the truth from the child? A
successful teacher of this city once said
with regard to small children telling false
hoods: Nearly all of them will do it. It
is natural, especially when there is fear Of
punishment impending. My rule is to try
to impress upon the chid's mind the deslr-
ability of telling the truth, by an assurance
that punishment viii not be inflicted, how
ever gross the offense of which the child
is guilty If the truth is told about It,
avoid Furnishing for falsehood as much
as possible, because know that as soon
as the child grows old enough 20 distln-
gulsh between right and wrong. II Il Is sur
rounded by proper home influences. II Will

Mrs. stevens and Pierre LorilIard.

Some twelve years ago. says writer
in the New York Press, Pierre Lorillard
rather suddenly drifted out of society He
had figured in the society papers as the
leader of the quality" and no description
of the doings of the fashionable world
was deemed complete without a rhapsodi-
cal laudatiOn of him. His manner was
highly impressive, and his temper, then as
now huny-always on the fret. IL seems
that he took umbrage at the rise into
social prominence of Mrs. Stevens, and
undertook to snub that estimable lady
The story goes that he said to her in
the presence Of several witnesses:
MADAME, l wish you could be induced
to dispose of the property adjoining my
residence. 1t is not pleasant to have pub
lie washing taken in next to ones front
door"
MIR. Lorillard," Mrs. Stevens replied.
scornfully, Il do not care to sell Just
now. one of my tenants Is selling your
snuff, and for your sake as well as his l
should hate to turn him out"
Mrs. Stevens never forgave Lorillard
for his attempt to take the shine out of
her" as she expressed it. When she be
came the acknowledged leader Of soci-
ETY. he had a very poor show, and finally
gave up. in disguest. This did not i'm
prove his temper. and he is now the
most irascble of old men.

Lucky cabman.

A rich Chicago lady in Paris. so runs
the story In a French exchange, took a
few weeks ago a cab TO one Of the largest
dry goods stores in that city. She alight-
ed, paid the cab driver his fare. She had
scarcely entered the store when she dis
covered that she had left her shopping
bag, containing 5000 francs in currency,
two very valuable black pearls and
couple Of diamond rings in the cab.
Her friends advised here 10 al once nOti-
~ the police, but she did not think II
worth while Finally. however she de-
cided to do so. but did it more to please
her friends than with any idea OF ever
hearing Of her money and jewels again.
Imagine her amazement and delight when
she was Informed by a police commits
sioner that her bag and contents had
been left by the cabman IN care Of the
police. She asked the police commissioner
70 send the honest driver 20 her hotel. He
came, and the first thing she asked him
was II he had any children.
Yes five OF them"
well. keep the 5000 francs" said the
falr American. 1T will be LOCO francs

American lady, made him drive her

she paid 30 francs.
Her friends demonstrated with her for
doing too much for the man.

DIR. ParkhWrst didn't stay in Chicago
very long, but he seems to have arrived at
a. pretty fair estimate of the spirit of the
city. The citizens, he says. are divided
into two classes, one Of which Is convinc-
ed that Chicago has reached perfection
while the other is equally sure that it IS
hopelessly and eternally damned. 1t may
be that the doctor got his impressions with
regard to the first class from the politi-
clans who rotate in office, and with regard
to the second class from the reformers
who are out and have no hope of getting
in.

Col. T. V. Greene, in a recent address
before the students of Union college,
gave some striking figures to prove the
economy of good country roads. He es-
timated that throughout the country the
average annual expenditure for road
building and read repairs amounted to
SIS per mile. That would give an annual
expenditure of s20.00O,O0O for the country
at large. Much the larger part of this
away on roads that are not only the
cause Of vexation and discomfort to those
who drive over them, but that entail ac-
tual loss upon those who are compelled
to carry their goods over them to the
market or to the railway stations II
has been proved by actual test that the
same force which draws one ton on a
muddy earth road will draw four tons on
a hard macadam road. On the Improved
roads Of New Jersey loads Of four to five
tons are habitually drawn by a two
horse team. This effects a saving of full
ly three-fourths OF the cost of hauling
to the station, and reduces the cost Of
road transportation from 30 cents to ~
cents per ton per mile. What this say
ing amounts 10 may be imagined when &
IS known that the New York Central
railroad carries nearly 100000 tons Of
way freight In a year. II tbs is hauled
only two miles by road to or from the
station and saving Of 22is cents per
ton per mile could be effected It would
mean total saving Of s9,0OQOOo."

It IS probable that more interest is felt

matters that have drawn the attention
Of the people OF this country to the gov
ernments strength at sea and forced upon
them the conclusion that the United States
cannot afford 10 lag behind in the naval
procession OF nations. It has dawned
upon them that the wealth and resources
of the country. great as they are. do not
guarantee immunity from international
quarrels. They have been lattering them

II isn't Sc. Some Of the neighbors are
liable TO step on the coattails OF Uncle

try is peaceoble is no reason # may not

bic nations. 1t has only been few days

a few days earlier came the news Of a
Spanish outrage upon an American mail
steamer.
The need for A navy. however. is not
as great as it will presently be. It is to
be expected that the revised tariff will
stimulate our foreign commerce. In
decd, it has already done so. But
greater things will come out OF

believe the American merchant marine

where they could get them cheapest, the
rehabilitation of tho American merchant
marine would come about much more rap
idly. At any rate. it will grow. And as
is grows there win grow also demand
for an efficient navy to protect it.
Heretofore there has been some oppo-
siton to the navy on the part of con-
gressmen from the interior of the south
and west. They will have to revise their
opinions. With the movement OF cotten
mills to the south. the development of
the iron. coal and other resources of this
section and the movement of western grain
through tho south will come an immense
foreign traffic to southern ports. 1t is
reasonable to suppose that a large pro-
portion of It will be carried in southern
bottoms. Interior points will be inter
ested in this commerce as well as the
ports, hence the congressman who looks
out for the interest of his constituents
will have to vote in favor of naval appro-
priations. England did not become the
leading maritime power until she became
the leading naval power, and the United
States will have to follow in her footsteps
