rho Mission of Good Homes.

We have spokeTs of the curse of snoo-
berry. The surest and quickest way to
crush it out of American society is to
teach our children to value others and
estimate their own worth by what they
can produce that is useful and do that
is beneficial to others. And that their
business in life is not to see how much
pleasure they can get, but how much
they can give. Instead, therefore, of
weakly clinging to our children and
making them weak by pampering them
in the home, let us feel that our part
or theirs is not done until we have
taught them to be strong to bear and
forbear, to do for themselves and
carry help and cheer to others. Let us
not hamper their careers with our vain
regrets at their leaving us, but help
them in all upward onward TEND
encies.-Home Magazine.

HE WANTED SLEEPS.
with Which TO Engage in the Game
with Antics and the
Kitty.

A young Frenchman, recently ar
rived in this city, found himself in
pleasant boarding house in Michi-
gan avenue, where most of the board
ers were of long residence and were
well acquainted-almOst as members
of family, says the Chicago Chron-
icle. The Frenchman was a bright,
intelligent, gentlemanly fellow, and
was taken into full fellowship soon.
One night little poker game was
started-a penny ante" game, or
something of the kind. The French
man took to it very quickly, and
found it very fascinating. The next
day he determined to purchase for
himself poker outfit to take back
with him to France when he should
return. So he went to large de-
partment store and asked if they
had some "sheeps."
"Upstairs," said the polite clerk,
sin the toy department."
The young man went up two floors
and again asked for ''sheeps."
cover in the far corner" said the
foorwalker.
When he reached the counter to
which he had been directed a young
woman to whom he made known his
wants showed him a number of
wooden sheep VIII wool fastened
on them.
"Pardon; eet ees not zese want.
1 weesh Sleeps"
swell, these are certainly sheep"
said the young woman, land they are
very good sheep" Then new idea
came to her, and she added: "Of
course, if you want something cheap
er, you will find some tin animals
over at that other counter" point
ing across the room.
''But it is not Sleeps 1 want, but
Sleeps 1 want not Sleeps re ami
mails, but Sleeps to play wiz"
MY dear sir, these are sheep to
play with"
The poor man was growing dis
tressed, when a second girl came to
the rescue. 81 know what you want"
she said, "come with me-"
He went with her, and she piloted
him over to a counter on which
were piled miniature ships, yachts,
and so forth.
''There you are!" she exclaimed, tri-
umphantly.
''But eet ees no, not zis! 1t is
Sleeps Eat want"
By this time it began 20 be the
general impression on the floor that
the man was crazy, and this was
strengthened by his explanation that
he wanted the 'sheeps" for his "aun-
ties!"
"They must keep a boarding
house." whispered one girl to anoth-
er, ''and he has mistaken this for a
grocery"
But a sophisticated man overheard
the Frenchman's last remark, and
said:
Excuse me, sir, but L think I I'M
derstand what you want-poker
chips, isn't it?''
"Surelee! Sleeps for pokeair! Eat

Two and by two fly the doves through the

Past the red sunsets far lines;
Past the tall, sentinel pines;

Down where the dark water shines,
Glowing in hollows. where floats the bent

Scimitar-like of the moon:
Where the round sand-eddies Groom;
Down where the sinuous brook-currents
trickle.
Dripping through rock-niches hewn.

Where the winds whisperings pass

HIS BLUFF DID NOT WORK.
Called for "PickIed Elephant" But
Took Cheese Sandwiches
Instead.

Stories of Yankee shrewdness have
always been widely circulated, but
when one gets ahead of a Yankee
there is very little said about it, espe-
cially on the part of the man from
the north. Several days ago hotel
keeper at a small station on one of
the roads running out of Memphis
put the laugh on a drummer from
the north in a very good way, and
the travelling man was compelled to
beat a hasty retreat. The drummer
arrived at the hotel about eight
o'clock in the evening, and fearing
that he would not be able to get
any supper he asked the landlord
what he could get to eat, relates the
Memphis Scimitar.
"My friend" said the hotel keeper,
'I can give you anything from Q
picked elephant to a broiled canary
birds tongue for supper tonight"
The drummer looked at the man,
and, thinking that he was testing,
decided to call his bluff.
"All right, my friend" said the
drummer; 'T'n take some picked
elephant"
"Very WELL" said the host, ''Tl go
and get it."
He was gone about five minutes
and when he returned said:
"All right, sir; supper will be ready
in a moment. You'll have to take a
whole one, as we don't carve them
after dark"
The drummer decided that he was
rot very hungry, and took some
cheese sandwiches.

iiow 10 Treat a Horse.

~ farm exchange, speaking Of
man attempt to catch horse in
pasture when he didn't want to be
caught, says such an one is about the
most unhappy man you can find.
And it is true. But why do not all
horse owners teach their horses to
come to them, When in the pasture?
1t is very easy thing to do, and
often would save vast amount Of
trouble. The proper time for such
teaching is when the animal is a colt:
but if not done then, or if it is horse
that was bought and not raised, the
thing TO do is to be gentle with it at
all times, and pet it whenever occa-
sion permits. Then if the horse will,
eat sugar, if one will carry a few

horse one occasionally, it will soon

though most horses will, little corn, !,

generally like, will do. By uniform
kindness and the COZ tinuation of such
treatment for w..ilc, almost any
horse will come when called. There

are taught to be hard to catch. And
1T ought never to be done. The yalus

by all means to be fostered.
