The course of IL teacher i'll some rural

One young lady thus engaged tells an
amusing story of the anxiety her 10
duct unwittingly caused the mother of
one of her pupils. The pupil i'll qucs-
tion WAS an overgrown and stupid but

Hodge. He was older by several years,
and far bigger than any other pupil in
the school, but he was not SO we'll adj
vallced i'll his studies as some of the
younger ones. He seemed so anxious
to learn that the teacher often got him
to remain after school for the purpose
Of assisting him i'll his studies.
Their homcward way lay over the
same road, and they would walk home
together after the hard placesin the les
SOILS had been made easy for Tobias.
Often i'll the morning, when she left
home to go to the schoolhouse, the
teacher would find the boy waiting for
her, and she tacttully gave him several
lessons i'll politcncss, such as lifting his
hat to her and other ladies, and assist

She was beginning to feel that she

Chinese Money.

A kind of Chinese money which is
largely manufactured and sold is worthy
of mention, although the traveller need
not trouble himself with it except as a
curiosity. This is prepared for the spe-
cial purpose of burning at the graves of
deceased relatives as an Offering to the
dead. The denizens of the other world
are supposed to require and to be capa-
BILE of receiving money i'll this way, but
the Chinaman is far too practical a per-
son to part in such q fashion with the
currency of the empire. Instead he buys
for II few cash q large supply of sill
vered and gilded pieces of paper or OF
imitation coins blocked out of cardboard.
Although these have no purchasing
power on earth, they are supposed tn
count for much i'll the transactions OF
the spirit world. BY this practice one is
reminded of an old story of a miser who
left his belongings to his son OH colldi-
ton that q certain sum of money should
be buried in the coffin with him. TIE
son was, however, Il chip of the old
block and carried out his father wishes
by placing i'll the coffin Il crossed check
for the required amount, assured that it
had little chance of being presented at
his bankers Chambers Journal.

How the Scene Wa. Once Lighted.

1t must have often struck people,
when reading Of the old performances
in the last century, how it was that the
lighting was contrived. The power Of
oil lamps was limited enough. Theaters
like Drury Lane and Covent Garden
We're of enormous size. There were no
footlights, at least until about the mid
die of the last century, and they were
the humble "tioats," dim enough. Yet
there was ample light to observe ex-
preston and play of features, SO neces-
s,ry IL interpreting the fine old come
dies of character. Nowadays the stage
is one blaze. 1t is literally bathed and
sutfused i'll light. There are no shad.
ows. and yet it might be said the
amount of necessary light is no more
than there used to be and is not nearly
as satisfactory. How was it then?
In the theaters of Garrick and earlier
days the stage was really lit by four
great chandeliers, which hung directly
over the heads of the actors from the
arch of the prosccnium and just outside
the curtain. When the play was over.
these We're lowered slowly, a signal TO,
the audience to depart. These chande.
liers furnished Il goodly amount of ligh,
oil Il circular zone Immediately below
tiicnl. The actors faces and figures
were lit i'll the natural way, as the sui
would light them. but the rest Of the
stage was comparatively dark O,
gloomy. -Gentlemm S Magazine.

Twenty-Five cents a bushel was the
price predicted for wheat by the popo-
Gratis last year in case of the election
Of Mckinley, but with Bryan elected it
vas to bring u dollar II bushel. And
under Bryan every dollar was to be
worth two dollars. so that wheat was
to be worth s. Il bushel. OF course,
Mckinley having been elected, wheat
should now really be % cents a bushel,
but owing to the foreign "scarci.y" it
is 81. SO that if Bryan had been elected
it would be worth. at the same ratio of
increase, and according to the same
reasoning. just four times 50 perbushel
or 81 per bushel. 1t is sad that Bryan
couldn't make this plain before
election last year.

EIGHT HUNDRED MILLIONS FOR
FREIGHT.

II do not know that many are aware
that the annual freight bill of this
country amounts to more than $780,
100000 year," says Carl Snyder in
American Monthly Review of Reviews
for November. sit is Il tax, and the
most burdensomtaN which this country
knows. upon our industries and upon
production. It's meaning. brought
home, is that each kmily in the United
States pays on theSa rage $50 IA year
for freight alone. II Commissioner
Wright's statistics are fArrect-that the
average income of eacliS aborer i'll this
country is not more THAI $500 "a year
then each head of II family must set
aside on the average the results of IA
month and ii half of toll to pay his
share of the freight. There is no Jones
to do it here
The people of the west have learned
this economic lesson we'll. They have
seen their wheat carried over the Great
Lakes at an average charge ofless than
one millpertonamile,wh when tine railroad
rate from their farms to lake transpor-
tation. or to market, was from Il cent
to a cent and IL half per ton mile. They
know that if all the freight in the
United States could be carried as
cheaply as is wheat from Duluth to
Buffalo this burden would be cut down
to one-tenth of what it now is.
Such considerations as these ought
to make it plain, even to a wayfarer or
IL congressman. that the freight ques-
ton is worth n little attention.
