THE NEW YORK YOUTH.
Story of Promising Boy, schoolteaohey
 and an Escaped Dog.

A drawing teacher in the unner 70. glons or the borough of Manhattan tells me of a curious instance of what she calls the crescent freshness of the metro. polltan youth. Tommy was the most in. corrigible pupil in that particular room making the half hour spent there daily one of mingled doubt and anguish of spirit to the drawing teacher. The other day Tommy was evidently engaged in some new form of mischief. His draw. ing pad lay upon the desk before him and his hands were lowering over it. now sweeping down at one side of the paper, now at the other as if corrallinc some unwilling ant or other insect seek. ing to escape.
 Tommy, said the drawing teacher suddenly and sharply, "what are you doing?'
 Nothin, :" was Tommy's instant re- ply. Then he added. "Nothin but keep in this 'ere dawg from runnin away. ;
 What dog?" queried the drawing teacher. 1T see no dog. What do you mean?'
 "Course ye don't see no dawg, :" said Tommy, teasing his gymnastics under her sharp glance and strengthening up. Yer too far away" The other scholars were all attention by this time. which was precisely what Tommy wanted, and he assumed look of un- smiling innocence as he continued, "I drofed a runnin dawg, not standin still one, an l was a-headin i'm off so's be wouldn't run off th tablet an git on tl floor. ]"
 The other children laughed uproari. onsly at this, whereupon Tommy sur yoyefl them with such an assumption of SUI .4Ised indignation that their mirth was red0ubled. The teacher was now genuinely angry. She was matter of fact young woman to whom normal school methods were both law and gos- pei, and here was a fragrant case of downright falsehood that must be ex- posed as an awful example to the entire grade of pupils She walked slowly and firmly down the aisle and picked up Tommy's tablet. The white sheet was unsuilied by 9 single mark of any kind
 Tommy she said sternly, exhibit ing the sheet to the pupils, "there isn t dog or anything else here.
 "Course there isn't, :" said the una- bashed Tommy. "Wha'd tell ye? Ye made me set up, an he got away. He was 8 greyhound, he was. Flown Topics.

.nv Hook sr Crook"

In old times the poor of manor were permitted to obtain as fuel the dead wood from the surrounding woodland. The dead twigs and branches which were beyond their reach they were al- lowed to lop off with hook or a crook.
 There is a document among the rec ords of the town of Bodmin which gives the right to the burgesses of the town, under the concession of the prior Of Bodmin, ito bear and carry away on their backs and in no other way the Top, crop, hoop, croo3 and bag wood in the prior's wood of Dunmeer. "
 Another part of this paper mentions this as "a right with hook and crook to lop, crop and carry away fuel. etc.. in the same wood. "
 The date of this record is l525.-New York World.

HE HAD HIM THERE.
How a Passenger Got Even With Street
 Car Conductor.

Car Conductor.
 He was intent upon his newspaper when the conductor came along and stopped in front of him.
 The conductor stopped down to get & better look at his face and said, Flare, please. .
 The man with the paper paid no att tention, and finally the conductor tap ped him gently on the arm.
 "Did 1 get your fare?" asked the con- ductor as the man with the paper looked up.
 Now, if there is anything in this world that has tendency to make 8 man who has paid his fare get angry it is to have the agent of the corporation to whom such fare was paid come along and ask him if he has paid it. It may be all right, but it always seems as if there was an inference that some one is trying to beat the road. Thus it hap pened that the man with the paper re. piled rather sharply:
 "You ought to know.
 "Oh, it's all right, sir'' explained the conductor hastily, "No intention to offend, you know I merely wanted to make sure. ''
 Then he returned to the platform, while the man with thp paper returned to his reading.
 A few minutes later the man with the papec went out on the platform himself, and just before reaching his corner he gently tapped the conductor on the arm, even as the conductor had tapped him.
 "Did you ring up my fare?" he asked.
 There were immediate indications that the conductor was getting mad. He tried to say something, but only spluttered.
 "Oh, it's all rightr' the man with the paper hastened to explain. "No in tention to offend, you know. l only wanted to make sure. J
 Then he swung off the car, and when he reached home his wife detected traces of faint smile on his face. -Philadel- phia Times.

cases in their Frcnchilly gloved hands. They
attracted much attention, which was not
surprising, as they were young and would
pave been handsome but for a similarity Of

markable appearance.

ganization known as the woman's Relief
Corps. whose aid to the soldier of to-day,
fighting against the world for a living. is no
less notable than the heroism Of the eos.
One of the most earnest members of the
corps at Byron, Ill, is Mrs James House
weart, but illness once put stop to her
active work. A year or so ago, when she
was nearing fifty years of age, the time
when women must be most careful of their
strength, Mrs. Houseweart was taken seri-
ously i'll. The family physician told her
that she had reached critical period of her
life, and must be very careful. His pre-
scriptions and treatment did not benefit her,
and other treatment proved unavailing.
At last DR.. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People were brought to her notice, with in.
disputable evidence that they were helpful
in cases such as hers, and with renewed hope
she tried the remedy. Last March she took
the first box of the pills, which gave much
relief. She was determined to be cured,
and kept on with the medicine, until now
eight boxes have been consumed, and she
feels like new woman.
Mrs. Houseweart said: ri have taken
eight boxes, and have been improving since
took the first dose. l do not believe could
have lived without the pills. They have done
me more good than any physician or any
medicine have ever tried"

"The bodies had better be removed

his matter-of-fact manner.
In due time the two bodies were w.

bedroom.
The man whose life before the world
had been blameless and honorable, q
synonym for business virtue and in
tegrity. but who was in reality the
greatest rogue imaginnble-who. from
his capacity for engineering large en-
deavors, knew must have been the
prime factor in the robbery-lay there
beside his tool. who had become us nc
complished rogue as his master.
Hypocrisy. and pretense have always
inspired the greatest repugnancc in
me. But, as gazed down on the face
Of him whose daughter was my prom
ised wife, and remembered the bright
spot in oil the blnckncas Of his real
character, the love and affection for his
offspring, my heart was heavy with
sorrow for him.
That love, so deep. 80 fond, that he
gave up HIS life rather than yield to
thought which might cause her unhap-
piness- surely such love was atone
ment enough for the evil he had
wrought.
Mr.. Perry was standing beside me as
these thoughts few through my mind.
"I cannot understand how or why
Sylvester Morley should become mixed
up in this affair and 10 meet his DEATH"
the president said. in grnve tones.
"Surely-but then that is too wild

Mr.. Wilson glanced around before an
swering. Then he sunk his voice down
low, as though afraid he might be
heard by the others:
Have you forgotten the voices in
your bedroom and up in the attic?
The conversation wss the most for
tunnte chance that ever befell me in my

"oh, then, you think Jackson was
one of the parties holding the conver-
sation?" asked.
"Assuredly. Has not the result
proved that?" he replied.
But then, who-who could have
been the other?~ 1 asked, with great
fear and dread.
Wilson dropped his head and seemed
to be considering his reply.
Impossible to answer that ques-
tion," he finally said, reluctantly
@And don't know as there Is any
