THE MIDDLE-AGED MAN.

Swinging on the Gate.

"On the occasion of recent visit 10

man. according to the New York Sun.
Twas, as | watched youngster swing
ing on a gate, almost startled by the
reflection that in such cities as our own
most children never know what it is IT,
swing on a gate, for the simple rea-
son that they have no gates here to
swing on.
"Dut in smaller cities and towns
every boy swings on the gate. | re-
member very well swinging on the
gate when l was a boy. We used to
open the gate as wide as it would go
and stand as near as possible 10 the
outer edge of it so as to get the longest
possible swing, and then step up and
let ii go. The latch would snap over
the holder on the gate post as we
swung past, and then we'd swing back.
and so on, back and forth, the number
of times depending on the weight of

dren would swing on the same gate;
perilous and exciting experience for
them, if they were little folks. and one
that they enjoyed huge.y. But while
it was fun for the children ii was bad
for the gate. Only the most robust and
well-corstructed gate in the heaviest
sort of fences could stand it. and even
such gates finally came. with the rest.

VASTLY DIFFERENT.
Great Contrast between the Lives Led
by the MOney-Getter and the
MOney-Spender.

A man and woman boarded a Euclid
car the other Gay and attracted considr
cradle attention from the other pas
sengers, says the Cleveland Plain Deal
er. There was nothing flashy or SEN
sational in their appearance. and yet
they were a pair who would be sure
to draw more than ordinary notice,
She was handsome. fine-eyed, broad
of shoulders, full in figure, rich color
in her cheek, mass of dark hair be-
meath fer plumed hat-the highest
type of a well,fed, well-groomed So
ciety woman. BY her side sat a slender,
slightly stoop-shouldered, hollow
checked, wrinkled man. His complex
ion was like parchment, his eyes were
weak, his hair thin. AS he raised his
gloved hand it trembled slightly. His
age might be anywhere between 40
and 70.
That's the modern contrast" said a
man on the back seat. Zone is the
money getter, the other the money
spender. That fellow makes himself
prematurely old grubbing for dollars
to decorate the woman. Look at her,
and then look al him. I'll bet she sleeps
the sleep of the just, while he has
seven distinct kinds of insomnia. It's

POWER In WATER.
How a Little Mountain Brook In New
York State Is Made to Give Up
Light and Power.

The ease with which small streams
OF W ter can be turned to account for
supplying electric light and power is
well illustrated in an installation
which has been completed at sani-
.arium in the heart of the Sullivan
county mountains, where a saving liz
fuel would naturally be of exception
able desirability. A brook which flows
through the property is part of the
headwaters of the Delaware river. 1t
las a fall of 20 feet on the estate, but
il is at best an exceedingly small
stream. In order to get the water stor-
age it was necessary 10 build dam 25C
feet across and 20 feet high. This
made a basin Of nearly mile in area,
and holds water enough to run the en-
tire plant 50 days without rain. The
dam was built entirely of stone hewn
on the site. The sanitariUm consists
of six large frame buildings, built on
various hills. and included in a radius
Of half a mile. Not only are all these
buildings generously lighted within.
but the grounds and walks are studded
with 100-hour long-burning arcs, and
the tourist coming suddenly on this
distant mountain nook could imagine
himself in a city suburb. The plant is
running so successfully that it would
seem worth the while of any large in
stitution or other requiring light and
power to investigate any water power
no matter how unpretentious-in the
vicinity. Such an installation as that
mentioned should, with ordinary man
agement, very quickly pay for itself
in the saving of fuel and other ad-
vantages.

Phases of Child Life.

Children pass through great many
phases. Transitions are often trying.
Keep these related facts in mind. We
sometimes fix a fault by taking too
much notice of it. A mistake should
not be trea ted as a wilful sin. a tran
sient awkwardness may be due to
rapid growth. A shyness of behavior,
which amounts to a painful timldity,
Will pass if not accentuated by COM
ment and reproof. This is especially
true in regard to speech. Children
sometimes use slang: sometimes pick
up words and phrases which are worse
than slang, but the mother need not
he unduly alarmed because of this.
The boy and girl will speak the lam
guage and use the dialect Of home, and
if the mother possess the children's en-
tire confidence she will not find it diff
ficult to convince the children that
vulgar speech is a thing to avoid.
Mothers will never in the years to come
regret a union of mild measures with
firm adherence to principle in the
home life. But of harshness and too
much government they may repent in
dust and ashes.-Harper's Bazar. .
