The Decayed French Gentiewoman.

The dccaycd French gentlcwoman has
an advantage over the English woman Of
her class in a climate that does not spoil
her clothes. The English lady reduced to
go about seeking for u place is soon drag
glcd and limp. Her boots and bonnet get
shapc!ess. Self respect disappears as the
clothes become the worse for rain or fog
and SCOT blacks. She becomes the image
of detection. Servants look askanco at her.
Cousins feel ashamed of her, and shop
keepers see in a glance that she will net
do for them.
The Frenchwolnan can wear n gown IN
til it falls to pieces from old age. Her
shoes and stockings are always neat and
her bonnet fresh looking. These adyan-
tagcs, due greatly to climate, are not sufli-
GENTLY taken into account by those who
set her up as u model in all things to her
English sister. But she is more adapta-

An Unrufned Temper.

Ono day a boy who was taking his first
lesson in the art of sliding down hill found
his feet in too close contact with a LADY,
silk dress. Mortified and confused, he
sprang from his slcd, and cap in hand
commenced an apology:
"I beg you pardon, ma'am. I am very
sorry"
"Never mind that" exclaimed the lady
"There is no great harm done, and you
feel worse about it than 1 do"
but your dress is ruined. l thought
you would be angry with me for being SO
careless"
ooh, no." she replied. "Better to have
a soilcd dress than a rufled temper"
ooh, isn't she u beauty!' exclaimed tho
lad as the lady passed on.
"Who, that lady2'' returned his comrado.
"If you call her a beauty, you shan't
choose for me. Why, she is old, and her
face is wrinklcd."
II don't care if her face is wrinklcd, -
replied the other. Her soul is handsome
anyhow"
A shout of laughter followed, from which
he was glad to escape. Relating the Incl
dent to his mother, he said: ooh, mother,
that lady did me good. l shall never for
get it, and when l am tempted TO get mad
| will think of what she said, Better to
have q soiled dress than n ruiIled TEN

Tigers Spend Hot Days In the water nm,
Often Swim Long Distances c.u ra~


When it was first reported to naturalists
In Europe that tigers were EXTREMELY fond
OF water the wise men laughed the notion
to scorn, for Felis tigris is only n bir cat
after all, and cats, they knew, had a nat
ural horror of water. Yet over and over
again has this proved to be true and the
stay at home naturalist once more been
shown to be in the wrong.
An English journal tells that tigers are
not only frequently to be found spendinp
.he BEST part of ONT steamingly hot day
IN India Ill a shallow pool, but they often
SWIM across quito broad rivers. and at

found dead in the salt water which sepa-

A Brown Paper Magnet.

A very simple and interesting electrical
experiment may be made with a sheet OF
brown paper, illustrating in a remarkable
manner how the most astonishing effects
may be produced by the simplest means.
Take q sheet of coarse brown paper and
after holding it before tho fire until it is
perfectly dry fold it up into Il long strip
about two inches wide. The magnet is
now complete. To exhibit its attractive
power cut some strips of writing paper
about three inches long and about rs wide
as one of these lines, then place them upon
the table, three or four together. Now
take the magnet and draw it briskly un-
der the arm two OF three times. Its cleo
tro magnetism is instantly developed and
becomes apparent when held over the
small strips Of writing paper, for they fly
up from the table toward the paper mag
net voritably ''by the wings of lightning"

Advice For Boys.

A strong and sensible writer administers
q wholesome dose for boys who use tobacco
in any form, assuring them that tobacca
has utterly spoiled and utterly ruined
thousands of boys, inducing a dangerous
prcoocity, developing softcning and weak
oning of their bones and greatly injuring
tho spinal marrow, the brain and tho
whole nervous fluid. A boy who early and
frequently smokes or in any way uses large
quantities Of tobacco never is known to
make a man of much energy of character
and generally lacks physical and muscular
rs well as mental energy. We would par
ticularly warn boys who want to be any
body in the world to shun tobacco as a
most baneful Observation-Disclosures Call.

A PuzZling Question.

Grandma says Though l don't see why)
That l am the apple of her eye;
Brother calls me q dance; Aunt Fan
Says she thinks I'm q little man;
Father says I'm u reg'lar boy,
And mother calls me her pride n joy.
Now this is what l would like to know
How in the world can a fellow grow
Who's a pride n Joy, an apple, a Ounce,
A regular boy N "a man at once?
