mind, keen sense of duty and love of
children, she was valued teacher
appreciated and loved by the children

A list made up by us at random from
newspaper accounts. and without any
thought of completeness, of the num-
Der Of persons who have lost their
lives through this passion for risk, the
love Of hazard during the past few
months makes a total Of several hun
dred. This includes some forty-fve
persons who have lost their lives In au-
tomobiles. seventeen who have miss
ed" their footing In balloon exhibitions,
nine who have been ushered out of ex-
istence by the means OF the bicycle
and its allied cOntrivNnces, two who
have climbed steeples for the last time,
three bridge jumpers. seventeen Alpine
climbers. five long distance swimmers,
seven who have been blOtted out OF
existence in efforts to break athletic
records and scores of others who have
gone to better and. 1t may be hoped,
a safer land by various other agencies
or methods designed ostensibly to pro-
mote the joys OF this present life. II
to this list we should add the 300 other
mountain climbers who. it Is said. have
lost their lives in the Alps during the
past ten years, the total sacrifice OF
human life to the rage for risk would
indeed assume formidable proportions.

BACKWARD CHILDREN.
The Slow but sure Ones Are the
Kind That Always Win.

Kind That Always Win.
This is n subject that is intended to
comfort parents whose children are
what are commonly called ounces.
Do not bc Cownheartcd or dscour-
aged if your son Is behind in his class.
1t Is a very common occurrence for
backward boy. one who was beaten by
all at school. to shoot ahead later on.
What becomes OF all the wonderfully
precOciOus children?
1t is very often the case that the
clever boys who gain prizes by their
greater quickness and facility later ON
are needed do not possess those quail
ties or have not had them developed,
while the Ounce who endeavored,
struggled and did his best, now can
prove the worth of those qualities that
In his school days seemed Of so little
use.
Encourage your dull children, for you
cannot tell but that through the aid Of
your sympathy and encouragement
they may turn out to be brilliant men.
Three of our greatest generals were
ounces. General Sheridan showed so
little capacity as boy that his mother
introduced him to one Of his tutors as
an "incorriglble Ounce"
General Ulysses Grant was called
useless Grant" by his mother because
of his dizziness as boy
Stonewall Jackson was noted for his
slowness, but at the same time was re
markable for his indefatigable appll-
cation and perseverance.
Mr.. Smiles, the author of self Help"
tells story of a boy in his class at
school who was one of the greatest Of
ounces.
One teacher after another had tried
his skill upon him and failed. Mr.
Smiles says: Corporal punishment, the
FOOLS cap, cOaxing and earnest en-
treaty proved alike fruitless.
Sometimes the experiment was tried
Of putting HIM at the top Of his class,
and 1t was curious to note the rapldity
with which he gravitated to the inevi-
table bottom.
1.-THE youth was given up by his
teachers rs an lncorrigible Ounce, one
OF them pronouncing him to be stu
pendous BOBBY Yet, slow though he
was, this Ounce had sort OF dull en-
ergy OF purpose In him that grew with
his muscles and his manhood. and,
strange to say, when he at length came
to take part In the practical business
Of life he was found heading most Of
his school companions and eventually
left the greater number Of them far
behind.
1.-THE last time the author heard Of
him he was chief magistrate Of his ma
tive town"
DR.. Arnold said OF boys that the diff
ference between one boy and another
consists not so much in talent as In
energy.
If your slow. backward child has per-
sistency and application, he will surely
head the clever fellow who is with
out those qualities.
Watch and wait patiently and do not
be in too great a hurry to see your
chllds mind develop, but carefully
train his habits of energy and en-
deavor. Margaret Stowe in New York

A physician talking to q reporter OF
a New York paper asserted recently
that govt is rapidly increasing In that
city as a disease prevalent among the
wealthy classes, the increase being al
together out Of proportion to the
growth Of population. He claims that
this is largely attributable to the in
crease of clubs, fashionable restau-
rants and cafes and also to the gen.
eral use Of cabs, even when the dis
lance from the club to the home is
only a few blocks. If people would
take more active exercise In the open
air, they would run less risk from
heavy meals. He says that rich foods
are more responsible for govt than
wine, although practically the two
usually go together.

THE SPLASHlNG HOUSE.
French Yarn That Was Printed TO
Ridicule EnElishmen.

One of the most extraordinary tales
ever invented about Englishmen by
foreigners was the "splashing house.
story, given to the world by the Paris
journal Patrie in 1868. An ingenious
writer in the paper Sravely Informed
his readers that in the suburbs of Lon
don were houses where earth beaten
up into mud is retailed." To these
houses men were accustomed to resort
in hunting kit for the purpose of being
splashed with mud.
"These curious establishments are
provided with muds of different coun-
ties. but principally of those counties
where the hunting is best. The sale of
the mud is conducted in the most Sc
rious manner imaginable; the attend
ant inquiries, From what county. sir,
do you wish it to be supposed you have
just returnedY From the county of
Kent The pretended sportsman there
upon takes a seat on a wooden horse
whose legs throw up the selected mud;
after having been well splashed the
customer pays his bill q shilllngs).
casts an eye of appreciation toward the
mirror. takes a whip in his hand and
goes to exhibit his muddy clothes in
Piccadilly. Bond stree or Pail Mall,
in order that it may be supposed that
he has just returned from a grand
hunt"
In addition to the chance of marry
ing an heiress which this remarkable
display of dirty clothes cOnfers on
their wearer, says the French news
paper man. the patron of the splash
ing house" has another more imme-
date advantage. The mud with
which he is splashed affords if not
proof, strong presumptive evidence
that he is a landed proprietor in the
county whose mud bespatters him."
And landed proprietOrs being held in
vast esteem as solvent and desirable
creditors, the man can obtain anything
he likes at any shop on credit.
One wonders whether such wonder
full tale finds any believers among
those wto read It.-LOndOn Live Stock

Live Burial Experiment..

Many persons have horror OF being
buried alive, which is why expert
ments in testing whether one is really
dead or not when he appears so are at
tracing attention in Europe. The ex-
periments Of DR.. Icard have been so
successful that they have been APP
proved by the French 60 -
Sciences. The doctor uses ~ Well
known colorlng matter huorescin,
which he injects into the body. II a
person is really dead, the fuorescin
has no effect whatever but II there Is
any life yet remaining the body quick
~ becomes yellow and the eyes green
ish in color. These symptoms will re-
main for one or possibly two hours and
then disappear. Many persons declare
that the existence Of life can be discov-
cred by the use OF the y ray, but 1t is
not always possible to have an X ray
apparatus OH hand in doubtful cases,
whereas fuorescin can always be pro
cured.

ANGELS OF STUDIOS.
Women Artists Employed ms Posers
For Religious Pictures.


Posing for religious pictures is bust
ness quite apart from the sitting for
the artistic figure, and there are four
models in New York who make spe-
cialty CT posing for artists and sculp-
tors whose subjects are distinctly re-
ligiOus. For several years Miss Jessie
Williams has posed for various MadOn-
mas. She is a young woman of no great
beauty, but her face has the soft, SYM
pathetie expression which artists find
it to be difficult to secure. Miss Will
liams posed for +. S. Church's "Madon-
ma of the Sea-" and from beginning to
end the work upon the picture was
tinged with humOr
Mr.. Church first conceived the idea
one day when down at COney Island,
the last place one would think of in
conjunction with Madonnas, where he
obtained the central idea of the cross
formed of white sea gulls flying to-
ward the land, just above the Madon-
mas head. The next day he sent for
Miss Williams. The day was rainy and
muddy. iiss Williams, who is evident
ly prudent young woman, wore pair
of rubber boots and a short skirt, a cos
tune, to be sure, not very conducive to
the forming of a Madonna. Mr.. Church
gave her an old gray gown lying about
the studio. Twisting an old skirt into
bundle, he tied it with cord, and
from this model, while Miss Williams
gazed at the rag doll, he made his
beautiful Madonna.
Miss Marion French Is known as "the
angel of the studios" She has posed
more times as an angel than any other
model in New York. Her features are
delicate. her eyes are serene and placid,
her hair golden, and she is, in fact, an
ideal type Whenever an artist Is in
need of an angel Miss French may be
seen about the studio.
Gertrude Henderson plays varied
roles in religious posing. Madonnas
are rarely attempted by Miss Hender-
son. She is posed for the odd picture,
Il 81. OSCllld, NUN VI hSbVNSd,
such subjects being regarded as her
particular domain. She has received
some dramatic training, has peculiar
ly emotional face and readily adapts
her expression to suit the require
mentS of the artist.
That the painting of religious pic
ture depends a great deal upon the i'm
agination and creative power Of the
artist or sculptor there can be no
doubt, for as a matter Of fact there is
nothing save tradition to build on.
There is no special model which has
been handed down to us from Biblical
times. There is a general type that
has been established. AS this is the
cese, it takes much study and work to
select a model whose features suit
the religious groups, which explains
why there are so few models Of all
those who frequent the New York
studio districts who are able to pose
for religious pieces.-New York Times.
