A Question of Feeling.

A mother noticed remarkable change
in the department of her 6-year-old son.
From being rough, noisy and discourteous
he had suddenly become one of the gentlest
and most considcrate little follows in the
world. He was attending the kindergar
ten, and his mother naturally inferred
that the change was somehow due to his
teachers instruction.
Miss Smith teaches you to be polite9"
she remarked in tone of interrogation.
"No," said the boy; "she never says a
word about it,"
The mother was puzzled, and all the
more when further questioning brought
only more emphatic denials that the
teacher had ever given her pupils lessons
in good breeding.
"Well, then," the mother asked finally,
"if Miss Smith doesn' t say anything, what
does she dog
"She doesn't do anything" persisted
the boy. She just walks around, and
we feel polite. We feel just as polite as
as anything"
That was all he could tell about it, and
his mother began to see through the mys

to take smoke. saw an old hen hob
bling about in very awkward way, and |
said to the farmers wife:
90 Madam what is the matter with that
hen:'
SO THAT hen, said she, is lame. 1t has
an artificial leg.
"'Oh, it has, has itY'
"'Yes. You know there was some very
cold weather last winter, and one night
the hen froze her leg off. pitied her l
nursed her and doctoretl her up, and she
finally got we'll. But she couldn't walk
on one leg. So just stuck clothespin
ON the stump Of her leg, tied q string
around it to hold it on, and she does very
we'll with it,.
"'Well, we'll, l said, If that isn't
strange!'.
Yes, replied the good lady, with a
SMILE but that isn't the strange part Of
it,
"'Nop
No, indeed The strange part of it
happened afterward and one would scarce
ly believe it If one hadn't seen it with
ones own eyes. This spring that hen with
the clothespin leg wanted to hatch. l
didn't think she could. 'Fraid she'd break
the eggs with her stump. But kind o.
pitied her, cause she was Il cripple and l
put l3 eggs under her. She stuck right to
her business for three weeks and never
broke an ogg-hatched out every chicken. ;
