WHAT TO TEACH A GIRL.
Practical Points Which Should Be
Prominent in n Young WOman's
Training.

At recent gathering of feminine
organization some one proposed this
questions: What shall 1 teach my
daughter?"
Teach her that 100 cents make dol
lar.
Teach her to arrange the parlor and
library.
Teach her to say mo and mean it;
or yes" and stick to it.
Teach her to wear a calico dress and
to wear it like queen.
Teach her how to sew on buttons,
darn stockings and mend gloves.
Teach her to dress for health and
comfort as well as for appearance.
Teach her to cultivate flowers and to
keep the kitchen garden.
Teach her to make the neatest room
in the house.
Teach her to have nothing to do with
Incorporate and dissolute young men.
Teach her that tight lacing is income
ly, as well as injurious to health.
Teach her to regard morals and hab-
its, and not money, in selecting her as.
sociates.
Teach her to observe the old rule: "A
place for everything and everything in
its place"
Teach her that music, drawing and
painting are real accomplishments in
the home and not to be neglected if
there be time and money for their use.
Teach her the important truism:
THAT the more she lives within her in
come the more she will save and the
further she will get away from the
poorhouse."
Teach her that good, steady church,
going mechanic, farmer, clerk or teach
er, without cent, is worth more than
40 loafers or non-producers in broad
cloth.
Teach her to embrace every oppor-
tunity of reading and select such books
as will give her the most useful and
practical information, in order to make
the best progress in earlier, as well as
later, home and school life.-Cleveland

they threw away such impedimenta as
knapsacks and muskets.
The drummer of the retreating regi-
ment dropped his instrument in his
haste, and it was picked up by Amer
lean soldiers. Straws were drawn for
the drum, and it fell to the lot of Levi
Smith, who beat it through many fights
and marches, until the United States of
America had thrown off their yoke.
Peace reigned for years, until the
British sought trouble again in 1912.
Volunteers were called out, and Israel
Smith, the sturdy son of Levi Smith,
enlisted as drummer in a Massachu-
setts command, and hurried to the de-
feDse of the national capital, beating
his fathers drum.
A new generation of men rolled
around before the drum entered service
again. This time it was the civil war
that called for fighting men, and among
those who responded was Israel Smith
H., grandson of the drummer of Bunk
er Hill.
AS leader of the Thirty-third Mass
achusetts regiment band, Israel Smith
drummed through four years of fight
ing in the Twentieth corps under Gen.
Hooker, and marched with Sherman to
the sea.
In the civil war bullet pierced the
woodwork of the drum, but left Israel
Smith unharmed. Constant beating in
three wars had worn the drumhead
through, but clever craftsmen patched
the instrument up as good as new, and
with the exception of these slight reno
vations the drum is the same drum
that left the instrument makers shop
in London a century and half ago.
Recently Israel Smith, now an old
man, presented the drum TO G. A. r.
post 100, William II. ii. Jennings, COM
mander, of New Bedford, Mass, of
which post Mr.. Smith is a member.
When the post shall have become ex-
tinct the drum will return to the heirs
of Israel Smith, who will present it
to the National museum at Washing
ton.
This is the story of what is, from
a historic standpoint, probably the
most valuable drum in America.-Phil-
adelphia Press.

He Wasn't walking.

Jabe Mathis, of the Thirteenth Geor-
gia, was a good soldier, but one day
when the confederates were retreating
from the field of Gettysburg, Jabe
threw his musket on the ground, seated
himself by the roadside, and exclaimed,
with much vehemenGe:
"I'll be dashed if walk another step!
I'm broke down. can't do it,"
And Jahe was the picture of despair.
"Get up, mani" exclaimed his cap
tain. Don't you see the enemy are fol-
lowing us? They'll get you, sure!"
Cant help it," said Jabe. "I'm done
for. I'll not walk another step"
The confederates passed along over
the crest of hill, and lost sight of
poor, detected Jabe.
In a moment there was fresh rattle
of musketry and a renewed crash of
shells. Suddenly Jabe appeared on the
top of the hill, moving like hurricane
and followed by cloud of dust. AS he
dashed past his captain, that officer
yelled:
"Hello, Jabe! Thought'you wasn't
going to walk any more?"
"Thunder!" replied Jabe, as he hit the
dust with renewed vigor, you don't
call this walking, do you'll" - Golden
Days.

VIEWS OF THE IcEMAN.
He Says It's the FIve-Cent Fellows
That Get Soaked When He
Makes n Mistake.

"How would you like to be the ice
man?"
1t was on the curb of a side street off
Broadway that this classic of the gutter
reached the reporters ears from pc
culiar old-timer of wagon on the OPP
posite side of the street. The iceman
and his old rig looked as if they might
belong to any old business but that of
selling ice. The old nag who furnished
the motive power had tried to sample
the taste of the reporters coat sleeve.
Seems kind o hungry" remarked
the reporter.
"she ort'n't ter be. He'd her break
fast same 's'usual this mornin'."
''But it's three o'clock now"
"Thet's nothin'. She never gifts
nuth'n till we gifts through. Eff she ct
in the middle o. the day, she'd be so
sleepy and lazy she couldn't pull the
wagon"
What is it she pulls?"
'Well! We's got a pertition in the
middle there and we carries mostly
coal in the fore part, and in the back
part underneath these cloths, is ice"
"That's quite a combination for one
wagon, isn't it?"
"Oh, / don't know. Sometimes we
carries some kindlin' wood in the front
with the coal"
"You haven't any scales," ventured
the reporter.
"Naw! Don't need any. How much,
Bin?"
His partner was just emerging from
a basement.
Fill the box, jim"
Jim hauled out full-sized cake to the
drop board and with his hand measured
off one, two. three, four breadths, eyed
it for a minute for his mates approval
and then, with half dozen scientific
chops, severed the cake to nicely.
'How do you know that's what they
want?"
It'll fit to st. Knows every box
serve. This piece'll weigh so pounds
to pound or two
"What if they want 25 pounds. Can
you hit it on the first cut?"
"Sure! Got to- l wouldn't be no
good eff had to chip off. Chips amt
no good-'cept to kids. We sells most
ly five and ten-cent pieces, though.
Those are easy to Judge"
81 suppose you even up on the five
and ten-cent fellows if you should hap
pen to give your bulk customers too
much for their money, don't you?"
"Well, sir, a fellows got TO make his
load tally, you know. The boss knows
how much ice goes out and we got ter
have that much silver at night if the ice
is all sold"
$50 you have your own troubles"
"Well, we don't make many mistakes,
but when we do some ones got to get
soaked-but between me an you an
Jim there, it's always the five-cent
filler"
AN" said his mate, there's others
beside the iceman."-N. Y. Sun.

Prcttx for the Reh-

The old Marseilles quilt, which has
held undisputed sway, has now a new
rival in the satin-embroidered spreads.
These show a satin-fnished face, with
heavily-raised border that sprays in
floral effects closely resembling hand
embroidery in heavy raised satin stitch.
You may pay for them anything from
$3.50 all the way up to $25, but after
you have reached the ten-dollar mark
they are e%quisitely embroidered by
hand. This class of goods is imported
from England, the embroidery being
done by the countrywomen adjacent to
towns where the goods are manufac-
tured. YoS find them in white, pink,
blue and yellow and other fight shades.
