There is such a thing as having re-

He Agreeable.

The otherwise good man who lacks
politeness or assumes a gruff. repellant
manner really sacrifices a part Of his
gifts, for very few people will discover
his good qualities under his repulslve
manners. Those who do may have pa
tience to bear with him, knowing that
his heart is right, but others will Judge
him by his manners. and finding him
disagreeable. will avoid intimacy with
him. 1t is not enough, therefore. to be
Just or kindhearted; one should also
be agreeable in manner, and it requires
very little effort to be so. The f0unda-
ton of agreeable manners y thoughtful
consideration Of others, or true polite
ness. This does not imply any neces-
sary sacrifice Of frankneas and honesty.
1t does not mean that one shah not con-
tradict or dispute, but It does mean
that when a contradiction IL made
necessary 1t shall be expressed courte-
ously and inoffensively. Every one
should cultivate this kind of politeness
for IN so far as 1t helps to make one
agreeable, 1t extends his opportunities
for usefulness and helps to give full
play to his other good Qualities.-Baltj

Quaint Sayings of Children.

A little boy. noting the sclemnity O.
people in church, and conn scting ii
with the promised joys of future
state. remarked Mother, 1 hope when
I so TO heaven they will let me have a
Saturday half holiday, that 1 may go
and have game in hell" We like that
boy, also the infant daughter Of De-
Hamilton of Regent Square Church.
who prayed: 20 Lord. open pussy's
eyes and make her tail grow" Here is
an even prettier anecdote Of children s
prayer: "A little girl told friend who
was visiting her father that her broth.
ers set traps TO catch birds. He asked
her what she did. She replied: 1
prayed that the traps might not catch
the birds Anything elseY Yes she
said. Il then prayed that God would
prevent the birds getting into the traps,
and, as If to illustrate the doctrine of
faith and works, 1 went and kicked the
traps all to pieces" Another young
ster reminded the Deity on one occasion
that his petition had not been attended
TO-" and requested that 1t might not be
forgotten in future. The same child,
offended by his governess, was discov-
cred burying piece of paper in the
garden. 1t proved to be a request of
the devil to take the governess below.
And children can sometimes preach
strange sermons as well as invent
strange prayers. At the age Of s
child who subsequently became al
eminent minister and professor at col
legs' took for his text, Learn to do
evil; cease to do we'll" and at the same
age Mr.. Ruskin, we are told, began a
sermon with the inspiring words, BE
dOod people, be dood." II our young
barbarians all at play are not more
spiritual than this. We can bear II
with equanimity.
No book on children is complete, OF
course, without some curios In the way
of childish logic. Mr.. Lewis gives a
few. Mother, who was my mother
when you We're little girl?" A young
ster. breakfasting on eggs and bacon
asks: Grandma, do fowls lay bacon?'
Nurse: How old is mothers new
baby" Small boy: 'Oh, we don'i
know yet mother only had 1t on Sun
day" Another small boy (watching
fly in a drop OF water and told that to
the fly the drop was a large pond:
II suppose God learned to do these
clever things when he was q little boy"
We offer Mr.. Lewis ''ny" story in ex-
change: Small girl Ito n.y.: tickle, ~,
does 90 love Dodr' Answers herself:
Yes" Then crushing fiy) do to Dod"
OF merely humorous anecdotes of chill
dren Mr.. Lewis. preoccupied with prov
ing their spirituality" has room but
for one or two. "A little boy sat on the
stOOp crying. After while he stopped
and seemed buried in thought. Looking
up suddenly he said: Mamma, what
was l crying aboutY Because would
MT let you go out to play oh. yes
and he set up another howl" Children
IN Spain are enjoined always to leave
a little food on their plates uneaten for
the sake Of politeness. A little girl,
tempted by peculiarly tOothsome dish.
whispered: Please, mamma. may l
eat politeness tO-day?" A bog, weared
with school tasks, sighed: "Oh, if all
the world would but agree to know a
little less?'-Lmdon Chronicle.

Now His KnoWledHo Served Him.
In a recent conversation with a re
porter OF the New York Sun. the Hon.
Daniel 8. Lamont. Secretary Of War.
remarked that he had learned teleg-
raphy az q boy. and that It had often
stood him In good stead. He then told
he following story iuuGtIat;ng this use

Several years ago. after my fathers

vile. my home town In Cortland Coun-
ty, and 1t was necessary fof tfs to take
A number Of railroads in order to reach
the main line by which we were to 60
to Washington. 1t was also necessary
to change ca1 q number Of times On
these local roads, and in one or two in
stances the trains were late. 90 that
began to fear we could not make the
connection.
At last 1t became positively known to
me that unless We could make q Ger
tain connection. my mother would be
compelled to remain over Sunday in q

president Of railroad, who. II he were
infoemsd Of my predicament. be-
lieved would help me cut So tele-
graphed him. telling him that my
trains were late, and asked him II he
would not telegraph the superintsnd-
ent to have the train on the main road
held until my LEGAL train arrived.
Before I got to the local statioK
where the main line train was to be
met, 1 had to change cars. 1t was a
dreary little station, and remember
well my anxiety while sitting in the
waiting-room with my mother, not
knowing whether my dispatch had
been received, till heard clicking over
the wire an inquiry from the super
intendent of the road:
us Colonel Lamont there"
The operator looked around the room
to see only two persons, my mother
and myself. and Immediately replied:
NO"
Just as he sent that word I stepped
up and said:
MY friend. have unintentiOnally
overheard the inquiry going over your
line an to whether Colonel Lamont is
here. That II my name"
The operator quickly corrected his
no." and informed the superintendent
that was there. and word came back
that the main line train would be held
for me.
This is only . little incident, but it
demonstrates not only the value Of tel
egraphy, but the possible usefulness
Of all practical knowledge that boy
can obtain. So 1 say that every boy
who has the opportunity to learn tel
~graphy should do so. Once learned,
you never forget it. 1t may be Of ser
vice at any time, and 1t will always
give q good livelihood

town.
He was sitting at the window. and his
cry a little moan,
As my mental vision saw him all that
long and wretched day,
And my foolish, fearful fancy know him
dying there alone.
With his kiss that still was waiting for
lis papa, far away.
de was dying of the grievins-of the
awful, awful ache
Of his little baby heart that love had only
filed TO break.
And pushed the papers from me and de-
clarcd that l would take
The returning train and hurry from the
town.
He was sitting at the window as l clat
tered at the gate,
And his tiny nose was dattened as he
pressed il 10 the pane,
baby heart elate
He screamed out a royal welcome with
his little might and main,
With 2 brown and sugared doughnut held
in either chubby fist
And his cherry lips a-pucker in the quaint
est sort Of twist,
To my arms he came a-lespins, and he
clamored as | kissed:
Now. ven, papa, what you bling me
fom We town."

S0o tory OF HO0a k1EO~ns
Mary C. Turtle, one of our girls, who
lives in Washington, D. c., writes shout
a wonderful cat named Rosa Brown,
which was pet Of her mOthers, when
a girl. Rosa was full Of odd pranks,
such as pulling the pins out of all the
in the house and gratifying
her queer appetite by stealing canta-
good old age with her children around
her, and when she died she was buried
with all the pomp that a cat Of her
sta anding deserved, and her little mis-.
tress wrote the following:
Haste to my aid, ye sisters mine,
Ye surely can't refuse
To sing, for me, her praises,
OF dear, though silent News
Her voice was never still for war"
Unless she ''smelt a rat"
"Let US have piece"-of fish or fowl
The motto of this cat
High her position-on the fence
Though often found-yet wise;
Down would she spring, on either side
Where tempting morsel lies.
No Saving claws" did she affect,
But at il, tooth and nail;
OF many a hard won battle
Was left Us but the tail
Language nor pen can ever paint
Her virtues and renown,
In life as death, what e'er she did,
Twas always done up Brown"

A Camel. Long Memory.

In Central Park. New York City, u
dromedary SO vicious that the keep
ers dare not enter his paddock for fear
Of being trampled to death. The other
day, however, an Arab dared what the
park man feared to attempt.
Three Bedouins, in their native dress.
visited the menagerie, and quickly
found their way to the camers pad
dock. One of the Arabs spoke to the
vicious dromedary in his native tongue.
The animal pricked up his ears and
grumbled In reply. In fash the Ara b
responded to his old friends invitation,
jumped the fence and spoke again. At
the camels third reply he walked over
to the old man and rubbed his nose
against his arm, while the two Ara bs
who accompanied him smiled approx
lngly from outside the inclosure.
Just then the keepers became aware
of what was going on and made haste
to get the man out of danger. The old
man kissed his newly found friend
good-by. apologized FOR breaking the
rules and went away.
