DANCING IN THE TYRoL.
Lively Peasant Dance and It~
oacuIatory Features.

Among the keenest delights Of travel
are those little adventures which
come TO us in out-of-the-way places
Of the worlds glimpses Of people and
manners which do not fall TO the LOT
Of the hurried tourist. The following
extract from Lillian Bells article in
the Woman's Home Companion, "Danc-
ing In the Austrian Tyrol," gives the
reader such picture;
Presently came Rosa, the chamber
maid, and Hedwig, the waitress, and
dozen young men from the neighbor-
ing hamlet, and began to dance the
'schuplattle' l have seen this won
derful dance performed on the stage
and in other Tyrolese villages, but
never have / seen IL danced with the
abandonment Of those young peasants
In that little kitchen on the Achensee.
They were all beautiful dancers. The
young 'shipmaster' seized our pretty
Rosa around the waist and they began
to waltz. Suddenly, without a mo-
ment's warning, they fell apart, with a
yell from the boy which curdled the
blood In the veins. Rosa continued
Waiting alone, with her hands on her
hips. while her partner did a serieE Of
cartwheels around the room, bringing
up just in front OF her and Waiting
with her again without either of them
losing a step. Then he lifted her
hands by the hnger-tips high above
her head, and they writhed their bod
les in and out under this arch, he oc.
casionally STOPPING TO snatch kiss,
and all the time their feet waltzipg In
perfect time TO the music. Suddenly,
with another yell, he leaped into the
air, and, with Rosa waltzing demurely
in front of him, began the fantastic
part Of the schuplattle, which consists,
as Jimmie says, of making tam
bOurines all over yourself, spanking
yourself on your arms, thighs, legs and
soles of your feet and the crown Of
your head, and winding up by boxing
your partners ears or kissing her, just
as you feel inclined.
"Inever saw anything likeit. Insver
heard anything like It. Il was so exhil-
arating it aroused even the cowherd's
enthusiasm, so that he came and did a
turn with Fraulein Therese."

HYsTRRIcAL GIRLHooD.
The Mother should Remember That

Parents are apt to lose the sense of

child always a child, there. comes u
clash. The paramount will Of the
parent exercised for the good and adj
vancement of the child. when the
child could have 20 will OF his own.
must gradually adjust itself to the
growing will OF the child, which
should be developed and guided into
the right manner OF exercise, Of rea-
son and equity. Unless this Is done
the chiid's nature becomes warped,
and the whole beautiful relationship
OF parent and child 10 thrown out OF
gear.
The mother, SAYS DIR. Grace Peek
ham Murray, in Harper's Bazar. domi-
mates over the daughter after she has
grown up. IL is her great affection
for her that causes her TO sacrifice
her ehild's individuality. She would
think for her. act for her. yea,

with this Is a kind of jealousy not sus-
pected, and the last thing 10 be ac-

mother the daughter grows worse

Complained Of feeling cold, and while
warming himself behind the range he
placed the knife blade to the heated
surface. II took two years TO heat
Il sufficiently TO draw the temper
out, and he spent another year filing
the knife so that IL could be used as
key.
Meanwhile the attendants had be-
come suspicious that he contemplated
an escape, and nightly his clothing
was taken away and placed in two
different rooms. The guard passed his
bed every half hour during the night,
but he watched his opportunity and
finally got all his clothing In hand,
and after the guard had made his drst
round he unlocked the. doors and
walhed away, refastening them a. he
passed.
The key Is now preserved among the
eurios Of the institution. A peculiar
feature Is that the patient was unac-
customed to the Use Of tools before
admission TO The hospital, and never
displayed any mechanical ingenuity

fourth time he got away, leaving DO
trace of mischief behind. Again he
fed TO Fort Wayne, and there the hos
pital authorities found him.
After his return the superintendent
began quizzing him as to the manner
of escape, and the patient laughingly
asserted that It was by means Of a
pass key. The patient was 50 elated
over the discontinue OF the attend
ants that he was willing to describe
the process. Every attendant has a
pass key Of peculiar make, and he
fiattered the attendant 10 believe that
he could make a perfect picture OF
his key. The attendant humored him
and the patient made two sketches,
one OF which he concealed, while he
surrendered the other. Some time be-
fore he had found a piece Of case
knife in the yard attached % the hos
pital, and he stole a small piece Of a
three-cornered file ia ,he engine room.

Pan-American Points,

Every visitor to the Pan-American
Exposition is more than pleased and
even surprised at the wonderful dis.
play provided by the exposition man
agement
Not only are the buildings beautiful
in line and color, but the stupendous
electrical illuminations which at night
decorate the great structures are most
dazzling in effect.
From New England the lines of the
Boston & Maine are the most direct
to Buffalo. The service by this line is
not only the quickest, but is the most
complete and also the shortest. The
route through Northern Massachu-
sets known as the Hoosac Tunnel
or Deerfield Valley route is one of the
most charming and picturesque in the
country, and the rate to the Pan
American city or Niagara is eXcep-
tionally low. For tourists from Bos.
ton & Maine territory a particular ad-
vantage is the absence of a transfer
across the city of Boston, for Buffalo
trains depart from the North Union
Station.
The General Passenger Department
of the Boston & Maine Railroad, Bos-
ton. has gotten out an attractive IL.
lustrated pamphlet on the Pan-Ameri
can Exposition, which is sent for the
asking.

To see the red hordes coming upon their

To pile the dead around me and hear the
Coroner say:

IL have not seen a redskin in all my
weary tramps,
And from my eye of vengeance they have
concealed their camps;
Indeed the only shooting I've done upon

Was shooting craps in Denver at fifty
cents a flip.
My warlke aspirations have proved hot

My system seems expanded with Call

With weak ming vocal powers curse the
