RUNNING BAREFOOT.
Precautions to BE Taken When the
Children Take Their Bare-
loot Holiday.


One OF the delights Of childhood 81
that Of running barefoot. There
% be- az instinct inheritad pet
from savage ancestors which impeLs
a child to throw off the f~ootcovering
and walk about in all the delightful
freedom of nnshod feet
Mothers Who indulge their ohildren
in this respect are wise. Many of our
instincts may safely and even benef-
cially be yielded to in moderation;
and this is one Of them. One of our
"weak spots" is the foot. and we are,
perhaps, oftener ~predisposed to colds
and other maladies by damp and
chilled feet than by anything else.
Whatever tends to tougher the feet,
therefore, makes the individual so
much the less liable to disease, says
Youths Companion.
Mothers are often perplexed as to
how far they may safely indulge their
~childrenin this longing for going bare
foot. They cannot feel that it is safe
to let a boy or girl run about barefoot
on wet grass, play with bare feet in
damp sand, or continue to 90 out
without shoes and stockings when a
cold and wet day breaks a hot spell.
1t might not be prudent to let a child
begin in this way in the early spring,
after h@ving been in shoes and stock
ings, and perhaps rUbbers, all winter.
But before the summer is over all such
anxiety may be put aside.
OF course there are certain c
tions that should be taken, for the
human foot cannot safely be neg
lected, like the well-protected paws Of
a cat or dog. The child should not
be allowed to run about in the neigh
borhOod of barns, blacksmith and car
penter shops, and other places where
there T likely to be rusty nails,
splinters of wood, broken crockery
and the like; o should he go far
atield over rough ground, where he
would probably get stone bruises.
When first beginning his barefoot
holiday the boy should put on. thin
socks and light, easy shoes or slippers
at dusk, and should go footcIad on
really cold days. After tramping in
mud and wet his feet should be bathed
in cold water, dried and "socked'' as
soon as he comes in the house.
A summer of this freedom from
shoes, with its toughening of the feet
and the system in general, will ensure
for the child a winter practically free
from the "snufHes"-but he will need
shoes of a larger size in the autumn.

ESTIMATE ON BRIDGE WORK.

glasses smiled. II think you have

"Well, we don't want a common
wooden bridge. Plenty of carpenters
down home would do that kind of
work.

"NO, I don't! I always thought a
man would like to get a contract in

"But I don't do thatkind of work.

OLD RAsTUs' FAIRY TALE.
To Which the Court Took Exceptions
and Levied a Fine for

"Rastus Mullins" said the recorder
to an old negro who was here when
"Ole Abe sot de niggers free,' - ''the Off
Ger states he heard you cursing and
scotching for three or four squares
away, and your wife says you got mad
at her, tore up your Sunday-go-to-
meeting hat, broke up nearly all the
furniture in the house, run everybody
out of the yard and then cursed till the
air sizzled with profane pyrotechnics."
NASSAU" replied old Rastus, relates

bald and white fringed head around
until his smile beamed on all the as

go on and tell me what she told the

QUEER NAMES FOR INFANTS.
Parents Sometimes COnferP repoEter-
Gus CognOmens Upon Their
Offspring.

AT Ramsbury manor, England, there
once resided a poulterer's family of tba
name of Duck. The third son was to
be christened and the mother wanted
the name to be William. just before
starting for the church the nurse ran
upstairs to the father, who was laid
up with govt, to tell him thew wore
of. What be going to call nm,
nurse?" "Missus says it's to be vii,
ham," was the reply. william he
bowed" said the invalid. ''CaT u'
plain Bill" In accordance with these
Iaeonic instructions the nurse gave
the name of Plainbiu to the clergy
man, and the infant was christened ac.
c%ordingly.
IN an even funnier way is the uueer
Christian name of One Tichiner Of
Peckham, accounted for. When his
parents and sponsors arrived at the.
church his nam had not been settled
upon, and when the clergyman said.
Name the Child one of the friends
said: John" and another said: col
no" meaning not John, and, as no one
else spoke, the clergyman thought that
was to be his name and baptized him
Ono.
A clergyman's son vouches for the
following: my father was baptizing
a boy Of six years of age. The names
given were Benjamin Joseph. After
the ceremony he said to the boy: sYou
have two very good names. and Won
ought to be a good boy. How did YOU
come by them?' Please, sir said the
boy, we wos twins and the other
died."
