Some of the Best Ways to Treat Grow
ing Boys.

Some of the Best ways TO treat UroW'
ing Boys.
Do not expect your son to keep per-
fectly quiet for any length of time. You
could not do it when you were a boy,
writes Mrs. NJ. Il. r. Alger.
Do not expect your son to confide and
trust in you If you do not meet him
half way.
Remember there is no one on earth
who has a keener sense of right and
wrong than your boy. Remember, also,
that naughty, mlschievous boys are us
ually very clever and have the making
Of smart, reliable men.
Always keep your promises. If you
threaten to punish boy the next time
he offends or disobeys, be sure to do it.
Remember your wife had had the
care of the children all day. Few men
realize the responsibility and unceas-
ing labor In the care of children, the
long, weary hours with the babies, the
constant attention, the everlasting pa
tlence necessary. Help her IN the even
ing with the boys.
am a firm believer in 'early to bed
for children.
Do not spoil your children with lux
uries. Plain food, plain clothes, are
what they should have. Silk dresses
diamond rings, trips to the theater anC
opera in the evening take the zest away
from your daughters when they become
young women.
Visits to your club, and the keeping
of late hours, do not tend to make you
sons either healthy or wise. They will
know all about life before they arr
grown up. Keep both your daughters
and sons amused and interested il
childish things as long as possible
time enough for the care of life late

She Wanted Revenge.

A certain noted pianist says that
whenever he feels unduly elated by fa-
vorable notices of his playing, or by in
dividual compliments, he calls to mind
an occasion when his pride received a
fearful fall.
He had been a guest with others at a
suburban house for two or three days.
The last evening was particularly
merry one, and at its close some one
begged him to play Hungarian Rhaps-
Ody by Liszt.
"I've played two or three times" de-
INJURED the pianist, "and it's pretty
late. Don't you think might disturb
the neighborsY
81 hope you WILL" announced the
young daughter of the house, for we
are perfectly sure they tried to poison
our cat last week. Nothing you could
do would be worse than they deserve!'
Then her ingenious countenance was
suddenly overspread with bushes, and
the company gave way to mirth.

Diminishine in stature.

When a man ceases to grow he begins
10 diminish. Such is the conclusion at
which a German physician has arrived,
after several months careful study Of
the subject of human height. Men. SO
il is asserted, begin to grow smaller In
their thirty-ffth year, and women a
little before they are 40. Men, however,
stop growing when they are 80, and for
FIVE or six years their stature remains
stationary. Then it decreases. at first
very slowly, but afterward more rap

"When we started playing In the
great contest" continued the talkatiye
man, according to the Detroit Free
Press, 81 became aware at once that
some one was making horrible dis
cords, and, turning around, | discov'
cred to my horror that the half-witted
youth, immensely proud of his posi-
tion, was filing his instrument to the
full extent of his lung power. 1t is
hardly necessary to state that we did
not win the contest"

Eskimos Not Small of stature.

The old tradition that the Eskimos
are a people Of small stature is without
foundation. On the contrary, in Labra-
dor, Baffinland and all around Hudson
Bay the height of the men is probably
above rather than below the average
of the human race, but, as a rule, the
women, although very strong, are con-
slderably shorter than the men. They
are brave, industrious, provldent and
communicative, in all Of which charac.
teristics they contrast with the north
ern tribes of Indians.

Old Acc Pensions i'm France.

The proposed law for old age pensions
meets with much opposition In France,
on the ground that the age at which the
pension falls due, 65, is far beyond the
average life of the French workman.
Many labor organizations have protest
ed and all on the same ground, that
their members have no mind to lay by
from their wages money by which they
personally are little likely to profit
