An Artistic Elevator Man.

Full many flower is born to blush
unseen. The conductor of one of the
senate elevators is a genius in disguise,
says a Washington letter
The elevator man is a natural artist.
During the interval when he is not the
custodian of an ascending or descend
ing statesman he is busy with his pen
ell, and the result of his work adorns
the elevator car. Like Correggio. who
drew with charcoal on the white
washed wall, because he had neither
pencil nor paper, the elevator man
finds in the daily weather bulletin card
the medium for the display of his tai
ents. Yesterday the card bore an ex-
quisite landscape, diversified with
mountains and water and ships. while
the day before the picture represented
Venetian street. The chief d'oeuvre
of the artist was copy of the Venus de
Milo, admirably drawn, who posed in
all her armless beausy above the pro-
sale words: "Weather cloudy and
warmer. with southwest winds" The
elevator man is a student at night at
the Corcoran art school, and hopes
some day to graduate from his present
job.

RULES FOR SMALL FOLKS.
Sensible Suggestions for Parents
Concerning Their Care in
summer.

Provide outdoor amusement. or
amusement on the shady side of the
veranda. for children during the in
tense heat of the day (from 12 until
A. and on rainy days-at other times
they should be out of doors. They
should never go out in the morning,
however. until they have had some
thing to eat. if only a glass of milk
and slice of bread. To play out of
doors before the system has been forti-
fled by nourishment is to court malaria,
and they should be indoors again be-
fore the dew begins to fall. Children
should ear regularly three meals day,
says the American Queen.
All vegetables and fruits given them
should be absolutely fresh and ripe
1t is very important that the bowels
of children should be kept regularly
open. and this can be done by judicious
diet.
Children are often tormented during
the summer by mosquitoes or other in
sects. They can be protected from
them by sponging weak carbolic acid
on their skin and hair and even on the
clothing. if found necessary. If al
ready bitten e.derflower water applied
to the parts will give relief.
Let the pillows upon which the chill
dren sleep be low and filled with hair,
not feathers. In soft feather pillows
the head sinks low and becomes over
heated.
When child is asleep don't cover its
face with handkerchief. Let him have
the full benefit of the air: if it is neces-
sary to cover him to prevent flies or
mosquitoes from disturbing his slum-
Der, throw piece of netting over the
bed or carriage. The child can breathe
through netting, but not through cam
brio.

Work for Girl Graduates.

"The work you are to do, dear
child, your Heavenly Father knows all
about, and in due time He will bring
it to you, or lead you to it," writes
Margaret f. Sangster to girl grad
yates, in Ladies' Home Journal. "Your
part is to be ready, to make the mos!
of your powers. and, in any period of
indecision, or of doubt. to go forward
one step at time as the way is made
plain, sitting still and doing nothing
when that is evidently the Lords APP
pointment for you. And, if you will
believe me, there is not the most re-
mote village in the land, nor the
loneliest farmhouse, nor the narrow
est apartment in crowded city
street, where bright and clever girl,
with a well-trained mind and two
capable hands, cannot find plenty to
do. Fathers and mothers growing
old need the brightness their girls
can bring to them. Little children,
small brothers and sisters, other girls
not so well off, struggling lads and
lasses trying against odds to fit them
selves for college, Kitchens badly man.
aged and wastefully administered,
sickrooms lonely and sorrowful, are
in want of the ministries our college
graduates can bestow. Meanwhile the

VOCAL CONVULSIONS.
Some POlysylIabic Parnphrases That
Might Become Productive of
ParOXysms.

Kalamazoo, Mich, has Mrs. Mala-
prop who parallels Sheridan's famous
creation, says the Troy Times. Re-
ferring to the absence of a friend, she
explained that she was a daughter of
the revelation" and was attending the
"convertion" as Washington. The live
ly proceedings of the convention came
to her notice and she commented that
women were getting more Stamina
ton nowadays and couldn't get cir
cusvented easy like they used to-" In
all innocence one night she duplicated
a time worn joke, how Mr.. So-and-so
was cremated in his own private
'creamery.' She added that she
''abominashed intermerment" as a
method of disposing of remains, and
for herself preferred plain, simply
funeral" "No funoreal cascade for
me-" she concluded, and her listeners
figured it out that she meant "caval-
cade." Ammonia" for pneumonia"
and 'desecrated" for dessiccated" are
of course orthodox with her, as they
are with many others who do not as
pire to such flights of language as she
does. But as she has the faculty of Sc
lecting polysyllables almost exclusive
ly for her conversation she often makes
laughable mistakes. II do think
Prof. Smith is so accomplished" she
said one day, referring to the accom-
plishments of visiting savant. His

fore l discovered his indelity. He has
georagy, minerargy, chemistorgy, and
a lot of other orgies at his fingers ENDS.
He's really the most disquirmished sci
ence l ever met. He's positively ele-
vatating." Another time she was dis
cussing the merits of various foods. II
always aim for nutrution," she ex-
planned. 'Starchiferous foods should
be avuded except you masticulate them
completely. They fermerment in the
stomach and give you gastrikus, from

digested, SO l recollect (recommend)
them for convescents. The albuteroids
in meat makes it especierly nutritious,

Reflections of n Bachelor.

Too many men seem to think home
is like Heaven--a state. not a place.
When a woman is really in love with
her husband she thinks he looks
graceful when he is carving a chicken
1t is lot easier, somehow, for a
woman to remember once year
when her husbands birthday comes
than it is to remember what kind of
pie he likes best.
When a woman makes up her mind
to go somewhere six months later she
begins to overhaul her clothes the
next day and spends part of every
day after that packing.
If the average girl spent as much
time learning how to bake good
loaf of bread as she does curling the
whisp of hair that grows down in
front of her ear the men would all
fight each other to make love to her.

Haunted Hotel Is Reformed,

One of the popular and successful ho-
tells in this city, was known Is years
ago as haunted house, says the New
York Press. Tenants were kept
awake at all hours of the night by the
most remarkable noises. These were
SO persistent that leases were cast to-
the winds and rooms vacated without
notice. 1t acquired so bad name that
women would not pass by it, but
walked on the opposite side of the
street. Its owner was in despair. FL
nally he was forced to close it for a.
season, which allowed the walls to set
tie and the plumbing to adjust itself to-
sinkings and shinkings, swellings and
twistings. A brave man slept there
for a week and reported that he had
heard no noises of any kind. Another
brave one leased the house for 30 years,
opened it in fine style, and to da is
turning away hordes of would.be pa
irons.

HOMELESS HARRY.
Tragedy in n Young Life and How

Two days before Christmas. and
asleep in the chilly air where the snow
flakes were flying. was a 12-year-old
boy, a vender of Christmas greens. A
dark, handsome, neglected child, he
lay with his unsold bundle of mistle-
toe and cedar beside him on the steps
of brown stone house. and there two
homecomers found him.
The carriage drew up, out jumped
Laura Webb, and more slowly came

Why haven't you any home?" ratified
Laura.
The scowl on the boys face dark

hit the champagne basket with his
foot.

Webb, turning from the parcels in the
carriage.
