Stanley's Punishment.

Stanley gazed down at his petticoats
with grimace of pain. They actually
hurt him. And every single one of the
squares of gay patchwork seemed to
burn down through them to his knees
as II they were red-hot.
"Oh, dear!" groaned Stanley, soft
ly. "I'd rather be starved on bread
and water. That wouldn't be anything
to being a girl! An making patch
work-oh, my! An pretty soon now
some one will call out, Molly, is your
patchwork done?'"
Poor Stanley blushed with shame.
All his little brown freckles swan in
the sea of red.
MOLLY" and the petticoats went to-
gether They were Staniey's prison
stripes. 1t was only when he Iad
been naughty that he had anything to
do with them. He took up a pink
square and yellow one and matched
them together slowly and clumsily.
But the needle unthreaded, and while
1t was being threaded again the pink
and yellow patches dropped back
among the purple and red and blue
ones. Then while Stan-I mean Mol
ly-was selecting a new pair of patches
the needles slid quietly off the thread
and hid itself! 1t was very warm In
doors, but out-of-doors how cool and
beautiful it was! What a good time
the bees and humming- birds were hav-
ing in the red clover! And Clip was
after another woodchuck!
"If were only Stanley again,
guess I'd be out there like everything"
he whistled wistfully. 20 Gippy, go
for him-go!"
There was no law against his going
out-of-doors. Sunshine and bees and
Clip called to him. Nothing kept him
back but pride-and the petticoats.
For supposing some one saw him! 1t
would be such a dreadful disgrace!
Gip's barks rose shriller and faster.
What if the woodchucks were coming
out! With sudden gathering up of
petticoats and patchwork the boy
darted through the door and out into
the sunshine. He could not bear it
any longer.
Little girl" strange voice called
in his ear. Stanley gave one startled
look, and then the horror OF it broke
upon him. The little brown freckles
stood out, distinct and single file, on
his white shocked face. To be called
Little grill" He scrambled to his feet
and fled TO the house as fast as the
terrible skirts would let him. That
was the end of this form of punish
ment. The name and the little ging-
ham petticoats were put away to-
gether.

key, mamma" Stanley said, gravely.

or in other words, by what drifts into
their mouths. Some of them are more
fortunate In being provided with their
own light; for down where they live
neither light nor heat affects them.
The largest waves do not cause
movement in the water, and some Of
the fish develop a curious whip-like
projection above their heads, in the
end of which grows real lantern-a
small ball producing phosphorescent
light. They have huge mouths, and
as they go swimming slowly about
other fish that have enormously devel-
oped eyes are lured right into the cav
ernous mouths of the light bearers, to
be digested at leisure. 1t sometimes
happens that a deep-sea fish in the
excitement Of chasing its prey gets out
of its depth and goes tumbling up
ward; as the pressure is relieved 1t
swells rapidly and finally bursts, and
scientists may find its mutilated body
floating on the surface.

Jewels on the Forehead.

News comes from Paris to the effect
that the fervoniere is undoubtedly
coming back to favor. Forty years
ago no one would have needed to be
told what a fervoniere was, and many
of the ornaments are in the possession
of women lucky enough to have inher-
tied jewels.
The old-fashioned fervoniere was a
forehead jewel, usually a large uncut
gem set in heavy gold work. 1t was
worn in the centre Of the forehead
attached to gold fillet, or more often,
a band Of black velvet which passed
around the head.
The ornament was marvellously be-
coming to certain classical type of
face, but lamentably disfiguring to
che ordinary woman. The Empress

In the Country.
Il seems to me I'd like to go
Where bells don't ring, nor whistles
blow,
Nor clocks don't strike, nor gongs
sound,
And I'd have stiffness all around.
Not real stiffness, but just the trees
Low whisperings, or the hum of bees,
Or brooks faint babbling over stones
In strangely, softly tangled tones.
Or maybe cricket or katydid,
Or the songs of birds in the hedges
hid,
Or just some such sweet sounds as
these
To fill tired heart with ease.
If 'tweren't for sight and sound and
smell,
I'd like city pretty well;
But when it comes to getting rest,
like the country lots the best.
Sometimes it seems to me l must
Just quit the city's din and dust,
And get out where the sky is blue;
And say, now, how does it seem to
you?

W. e. Russell, formerly governor of
Massachusetts, was one of the most
brilliant young men ever honored by
the leadership of great state. Once
in addressing a body of law graduates.
he gave utterance to an idea which de-
serves the largest possible audience.
Remember, fellows" he said, that
there is an everlasting difference be,
tween making living and making 4
life"
AS a matter of fact we know that al
most anybody can make living. A
pair of strong arms can WELD the
shovel or pickaxe even IL there Is not
much intelligence back of the strength
A shrewd brain can plan money-maks
ing schemes which will be successful
as such success goes, without any help
from principle. But food and clothing
and shelter, however elaborated on,
are not enough for any human being.
Every man owes it to himself, as we'll
as to God, to do more than make liv-
ing. .
In making a life. the whole man
must go to work. The hands cannot
do it alone, nor the head, nor even thu
heart. All the powers must cooper
ate. All that is best and finest in us
must be given a chance for expression.
And the manhood which puts itself
into making life, IS as much higheI
than that which eXpends itself in riak-
ing living, as thought and love arc
higher than bread and meat or wool
len cloth. The majority OF our readers
are still in the preparatory DEPART
ment of life's school. You are getting
ready to do a certain work by and by.
But what is it that you are fitting
yourselves for? 1t makes all the diff
ference in the world-all the difference
in the world to come as well as this,

bition and your energy toward making
living or making a life.-Young Peo-

How n Delightful Outing May BE Enjoyed
by the Expenditure of Little Money.
i. In the Woman's Home Companion
Walnut Laceting tells how delightful
summer vacation may be had in q
novel and agreeable way:
1--WE determined to travel for the
most part mornings and evenings.
From o'clock to 8 or 10, with keen
scent for anything quaint or beautiful,
we glded along the shore-lines or the
peaceful levels of the inland towns.
for the qualification of our own tastes
if waterside grove looked specially
alluring. In derailing we first raised
the car a few inches on four light
jackscrews. On the sill had been fas-
ened, two on a side, hollow-rimmed
wheels. The low horses were then
placed on each side of the car, and
two nine-foot lengths of light old rails
laid on the horses. fitted with blocks
to hold the rails in gauge. We then
loosened the screws and had our car
mounted to run sidewise. Then plac-
ing two more rails, abutting the first
two, and resting at the outside end on
two more horses, we rolled the car
over, stopping it by trigs. Then our
first set of rails and horses could be
removed to clear the track.
"a favorite halting reason was the
nearness of a station to crossroads,
which usually have something better
in the way Of old walls and roadside
shadows, old well-sweeps and quaint
gambrel-roofed cottages than can be
found on the main highways traversed
by the trolley lines. Hebe, who liked
nothing better than cross-country
stroll, would issue forth with sketch
book at about 4 o'clock, accompanied
by Dominic and his camera. Nothing
more would be seen of them until 6,
when they would return, in transports
of delight oncerning the loveliest long
shadows or cunningest calves and
lambs thct ever were seen.
1--WE must not forget to tell You
that Paradise such as we have de-
scribed is one of the coolest summer
resorts imaginable. BY closing the
shutters on the sunny side and droop-
ing all the windows we sat or slept
in agreeable quarters. On wet days
it afforded us perfect dryness and cosy
comfort. The platform at one end was
reserved for the kitchen in wet weatn-
er. It was covered in for the time by
a canvas on one Of its sides and the
rear. On fine days we invariably lived
under the trees"

Professor Baird devoted a greaS
deal of time to the question as to the
length of life of fish and he found that
the ordinary carp, if not interferred
with, would live 500 years In his writ

there are now living in the royal
aquarium in Russia several carp that
are known to be 600 years old, and he
has ascertalned in a number of cases
that whales live to be over 200 years
old. A gentleman in Boston has a

it 40 years before he gave it to his

strange and weird belongings natural

bear a resemblance to those already
known that are found nearer the top

are produced by the enormous press

sea is SO constructed by nature that
it may resist the awful weight of the
tons of water. The strongest steel
ships are not more than pasteboard
boxes, while every man-made thing
that sinks into the great depths of the
ocean is crushed beyond recognition
before 1t reaches the bottom. Those
animals that swim about SO swiftly in

creatures in the great depths, while
there are many animals of the porcu-
