Papa's Words.


Frank is chubby small boy of some
or years. whose father is an artist.
Last summer he went with his parents
to spend some time on a farm while
his father was engaged in sketching.
On arriving he was duly and Impress
lively warned against venturing too
near the cattle in a neighboring past
ure, and especially pointed out were
the terrors of that big fellow with the
awful bass voice. What then, was the
CONSERVATION of his father when, on
the second day, he discovered his hope
full son through the fence, and stand
ing right in front of the big fellow,
and gently rocking his head from side
to side by firm grasp on a horn in
either chubby hand! The animal stood
with his head hung low, apparently too
aSton1shed to demonstrate. There was
vault over the fence worthy of
banderillero by the parent, a precip-
itate rescue, and breathless demand
as to what the child was thinking of.

1t was not anger that changed him of

1t was not diffidence made him shy;
Il on branch that has blosSomed above the
gate
Could guess the riddle-and so can l.
What does it means when the bold eyes
And the ready tongue at its merriest
trips?
what potent influence holds in thran
the eager heart and the burning lips?
All me- to falter before a girl
Whose shy lids never would let you
know
(Save for the lashes' wilful curb
The pansy-purple asleep below.
Nothing to brighten man away
only a cheek like a strawberry-bed;
Only ringlet's gold astray,
And a mouth like a baby's, dewy-red.
All, baby-mouth, with your dimpled
bloom,
If but yon biossomy apple-bough

That deepens its bushes even now.
No need, for the secret at last is known:

Care of the Teeth.

II the proper amount of care was
bestowed upon the teeth there would
not be the complaints we hear from
day to day, the teeth would last like
any other part of the body, with only
the repairs made necessary by wear
and tear.
There is nothing better for the teeth
than precipitated chalk favored with
Wlntergreen, and it has the advantage
of being cheap. Brush with this in
the morning and use only water on
the brush at night. For the rest of
the day refrain from the use Of the
brush, but use piece of dental floss
or thin rubber band to remove par
ticles of food from between the teeth
after each meal. 1t is we'll to brush
the tongue as we'll as the teeth, as the
coating works considerable harm to
the surface of the teeth A drop or
two OF tincture of myrrh on the tooth
brush will sweeten the mouth and a
few drops in a small glass OF water
used as a gargle will take away any
faint that may remain on the breath
after the nights sleep. More harm is
done by too much brushing and too
much dentifrice than by letting the
teeth alone.
There is another caution I would
give in the care of the teeth. Do not
use much soap. 1t will make the teeth
feel smooth and nice, but viii not re-
move discoloration. 1 saw an instance
of that in a splendid set of teeth in a
pretty girls mouth. She decided to
discard dentifrice for white CASTLE soap
and had passed through week of that
treatment when 1 met her. 1 give you
my word she was a sight. Every one
of her good sound teeth was trimmed in
black which required the best efforts
of her dentist to restore them to any
thing like their former beauty The
of dentifrice is necessary to
remove discoloration and used in mod
Grafton it will improve any set of teeth.

Guards.

1t is we'll known that many animals
appoint one or more of their number
to act as sentinels to guard against
surprise while the rest are asleep or
feeding or at play. Among the animals
using the word in its widest sense
that are thus prudent may be named
the following: Wasps, ants, chamois
and other antelopes, prairie dogs. wild
horses, rocks, swans, Australian cock
atoos, zebras, quails. certain monkeys,
famingoes, New Zealand silver eyes,
shags and other birds, marmotS, mOu-
don and other sheep, seals, African
wild cattle, huanacoes, elephants, etc.
Perhaps the best known of these are
the prairie dogs, who burrow their
homes in the earth in little villages,
with regular streets and everything.
All around these villages, bolt upright,
sit wise little dogs to keep a lookout
while the others sun themselves at the
doors of their burrows or play. Let
strange animal or a man appear and
one of the little sentries at once barks
and in another instant there is a
twinkling of heels, and not prairie
dog is to be seen until the danger is
past.

Frightening ChilCren.

Nothing can be worse for a child
| than to be frightened. The effect OF
| the scare it is slow to recover from:
it remains sometimes until maturity,
as is shown by many instances of NOR
bid sensitiveness and excessive ner-
vousuess. Not infrequently fear is en-
ployed as a means of discipline Chill
dren are controlled by being made to
believe that something terrible will
happen to them, and punished by being
shut up in dark rooms, or by being put
in places they stand in dread OF. No
one withou vivid memory of his child
hood can comprehend how entirely
cruel such things are. We have often
heard grown persons tell of the suf-
fering ;"ev have endured, as children
under T. circumstances, and recount
the irreparable injury which they are
sure they then received. No parent.
no nurse, capable of alarming the
young is fitted for her position.
Children. as near as possible. should
be trained not to know the sense Of
fear, which, above everything else, is
to be feared in their education early
and late. Some interesting facts deal
ing with the fears Of children hare

sor. He found that 1,701 children were
afraid of 6,45G things The leading
fears were lightning and thunder.
reptiles, strangers, the dark, death
domestic animals, water. ghosts, in
sects, rats and mice and high words
Some of the fears were the results of
personal eXperiences-that is in a dis
trict where a great wind had wrought
havoc the children were afraid
of it. In other cases the anal
ysis showed by what means parents
had worked upon the imaginations Of
their children. In one district sixteen
poor little ones We're dreading the end
of the world. The most gratifying fact
of all was that not one child had been
frightened into obedience or good con-
duct by the fear of the devil. A CEN
fury or two ago that fear would have
led all the rest. The pleasing infer
cIce is that parents now dwell rpon
affection and love to insure the good
ness of their children, instead of ter
rorizing them with Satan's wrath.

Very Polite.

Mr.. Andrew Ellet, wellknow.
railroad man, resides with his family
in Norwood. He has a young son, who
is known in his neighborhood for his
very polite manners. One night dur
ing the recent cold snap a rap was
heard at back door of the Ellet resi-
dence, and Master Ellet responded to
it. He found tramp standing on the
step. He was shivering very badly and
wanted to get help to a nights lodg-
ing. Both the lad and his parents had
seen the man begging all afternoon,
and his father told him to send the
man away. Master Ellet could not fol-
low out instructions, as he felt that
that would hurt the tramp's feelings,
so he returned to the door and said in
an exceedingly sympathetic tone: I'm
awful sorry, but all our beds, even to
the spare one, are full this evening""

Don't Go Into Particulars.

When you meet politician
OF a strictly business kind,
Who at last has climbed the ladder
And left all his past behind,
You must compliment him shrewdly
If you don't want any row;
You can say you're glad he got there,
But you needn't mention how.
You can speak with admiration
OF the place he's risen to
And talk about the future
And the things that he will d.
But brevity is safer
Simply make your little bow
And say you're glad he got there,
And you needn't mention how

The WalruS.

When a Polar bear attacks a walrus
he has to take care that the other
members of the victims family do not
come to the rescue, for then it will be
bad for Bruin. The walrus simply
collars" the bear and pulls him be-
low the water, and keeps him there
until he is drowned. A ships captain
once narrowly escaped this fate. He
was seized by walrus that had lost
her calf and dragged twice to the bot
tom. Excepting that he was nearly
drowned, the only injuries he bore
were two deep wounds on his temples
caused by the tusks. He was lucky
enough to be snatched from the ami
mails clutch before it was too late. He
afterward said he did not believe the
walrus meant to harm him, but mis-
took him for her cub as he foundered
about in the sea.
