THE THREE SISTERS.

to Say n word.
There were three sisters who 1isped
very badly, and their mother, who waa
solicitous about finding husbands for
them, was continually admonishins
them to hold their tongues. This is
difficult for girl that has no impedi-
ment in her speech, but it is impossible
for one that stammers. One evening
the three lispers were invited to "a
quilting" at neighbours.
"Now, mind, girls, " said the anxious
mother, "some nice young men are go.
ing to be there, and you must not say a
word, or they will learn that you LISP
and won't care to make up to you"
They promised to be silent and went
to the quilting. When they reached the
house, they sat down and quilted dill
gently in silence, and nothing could in
duce them to take part in the converse
tion. At last the eldest wanted the scis-
sors and tried to make signs to her nex,
sister to pass them to her, but could not
attract her attention. Losing patience
she stammered out:
'Thither, path me the thithorth. "
The other replied with indignation:
Didn't ma thay that 90 thouldn't
thay anything:"
This was too much for the youngest,
and she exclaimed i'll self congratu-

1t is not long since a prosecu-
ton for assault was instituted
against the principal of a school
in one of the larger towns of this
state, because he gave a pupil n
sound thrashing. The case ere
ated much excitement in the COM
munity. Fortunately the princi-
pals chastisement, being proven
of harmless ifsevere character,
was upheld and the case against
him dismissed. "Spare the rod
and spoil the child is maxim
that is just as good today as ever
it was. 1t applies to large num-
ber of boys and to some girls. And
in order to preserve proper disci-
pline in the schools parents and
guardians must concede the neces-
sity for physical punishment or be
prepared for the alternative of dis
missal of their children from
the schools. In any event teach
ers should not be brought into
court and sensational charges of
cruelty made without much graver
cause for action than common
and almost invariably harmless
chastisement.

Fraternal Congress.
The twelfth annual meeting OF the
National Fraternal Congress met In
Baltimore on November Is, 10, IL and
Is. A large number OF delegates were
present. Fifty-one societies we're re-
ported entitled to representation, cast
ing total vote OF 23l, Of which the A.
O. u. w. cast ten the highest OF any
society. The papers read were OF a
character calculated to work material
benefit to fraternal organizations. We
will try and give our readers extracts
from these papers from time to time.
We are sorry that we were unable to
be present. We copy the following re-
port from the Fraternal Guide:
A very large attendance of the rep
resentatives OF the different fraternal
orders belonging to the congress greet
ed the officers of the association on
the opening OF the congress.
The president OF the congress, James
f.. Shepard OF Lawrence, Mass, called
the congress to order and in the alb
sence of the Chaplain, Rev. j. G.. Tate,
of Lincoln, Neb., the Rev. Samuel +.
Lacey, of the Newark conference Of
the Methodist Episcopal church, was
appointed chaplain and opened the
congress with prayer.
The congress was welcomed to Barti-
more by the mayor of the city, who in
a very delightful speech gave the
members of the National Fraternal
Congress the freedom OF the city.
The address of the mayor was re-
piled to by Ex-Presideut j. G.Johnson,
Of Peabody, Kansas, who in very
forceful manner conveyed to the mayor
the thanks of the congress for the very
gracious manner in which 1T had been
received and for the promise Of the
good things to come.
The sessions of the congress were
very interesting and of great value to
those who had the good fortune TO be
present.

were excellent in tone and of unusual
educational quality, and cannot fail to
accomplish very desirable results.
The congress is only advisory in
character, yet, nevertheless, we are
profoundly convinced that the reports
OF the various committees, as we'll as
the very able papers read before the
congress, as also before the medical
and fraternal press sections of the con-
gress, must, of necessity, bring mag.
nificent results TO fraternalism through.
