WELL-TRAINED SONS.

Ministers Families Have Given Many
Noted Men to the World.
Not the least gift of the Amer,
lean clergy (and their wives) has
been the training of their sons.
Think for a moment, says the Pa
cific Churchman, of Emerson,
whose ancestors had been minis
tiers for five generations. James
Russell Lowell started from a
minister's home. Oliver Wendell
Holmes learned to tune his Tyre in
his fathers parsonage. Henry
Ward Beecher sprang from the
loins of a grand old minister Of
brain and Drawn.
- Looking at the records of liter
ature in England We find the same
thing. Addison, Thomson, Gold
smith, COleridge, Young, COwper,
Montgomery, Heber and Tennyson,
were sons of the prophets" and
withal hymn writer's and great
poets. Turning to philosophy you
have the same story. Dugald
Stewart, Reid, AbercrOmbie and
Benham were parsons sons.
In general literature we find
multitudes of ministers sons
Swift, Macaulay, Thackeray,
Kingsley and Matthew Arnold
were clergymen's sons.
OF the more recent past or still
living are such men as Lord
Charles Beresford, Lord CurzOn,
Cecil Rhodes, w. T. Stead, An.
thOny Hope, r. d. BlackmOre,
Henry James, Marcus DOds and
Grant Allen. Such names as these,
supplemented by thousands less
conspicuous, but none the less
useful, that can be found in any
American or English work of ma
tiOnal biography, will stand as an
abiding witness that minister's
sons turn Out-and they turn out
we'll.

Indiana Poetry.

The "limit" of poor verse has
been reached by a Hoosier who
feelingly writes;
The poor, benIghted Hindoo,
He does the best he kin do;
He sticks to his caste from first
to last,
And for pants be makes the skin
do. ="
Too many people make the skin
do the work that the bowels and
kidneys should do. A bilious, con-
stipated condition means a yellow
skin, lusterless eyes, foul breath,
and a general worn out feeling. All
this can be remedied by the use of

THE SECRET OF BEAUTY.
Middle-Aged Women as Well as the
Young Should Study It.

A well-known French writer
once preached in all seriousness
the maxim that ii is the first duty
of women to look beautiful. But
though he does not state his
meaning clearly, says the London
News, it is evident that he consid-
ers beauty of expression more i'm
pOrtant than that of mere fea-
lures. AS the years roll by we
cannot expect, nor can we even
wish, if we are sensible women, to
retain the radiant beauty of
youth. On the other hand, the
pleasant expression that denotes
a sweet disposition will gradual
ly glorify the plainest face. 1t is
within the power of the middle.

nifty that only years can bring, to
possess a beauty and power Of
fascination that equals, or even

youth. 1t is now recognized that
every age has a beauty of its own,
and it is no longer considered
necessary in the age of sere and

gray locks under those monstrOs-
tiles called mob caps, or to dis

such as crepe de chine, linen de

THIS HEN REARED KITTENS.
The Latter in Turn Adopted Certain
Traits of the Hen.

Some years ago, says a writer
in Forest and Stream, my atten-
ton was called to a hen that had
adopted a litter of kittens. When
! first saw them they had got
their eyes open. Every day |
spent an hour or more watching
the old hen and her strange fam
lily. The hen would let the cat
suckle the kittens, but when they
were through she would drive the
cat away and hover over the fam
lily. The cat was tramp that fed
with several others on swill
brought from the city for hens
and hogs. AS far as / could see,
the cat was willing to let the hen
rear her kittens. The whole af-
fair seemed natural, and was as
intelligently arranged as if it had
happened to human beings. l
carefully noted the actions of the
old hen and kittens. The kittens
soon learned the calls of the hen,
and the hen certainly understood
the calls of the kittens. The hen
would wander into the bushes,
scratching for insects, which she
ate without Offering them to her
adopted family. When the kit
tens wanted rest and sleep they
made a thin cry, and the hen
would Immediately hover them.
If they wanted food their cries
sounded to me like the call to
hover, but the hen understood
and she led them to the milk dish.
If the dish was empty she led
them to the hen yard and looked
for bits of meat or bread. If she
failed to find food, she went to
the house door and called until
some one Of the family brought
out milk. Before the cat deserted
her family, the hen would lead the
kittens to fiat ledge, where the
cats summed themselves. The cat
usually hunted up the hen in the
early days, for a relief from an
overflow Of milk. Several times
saw the hen hunt for the cat
when the kittens were hungry.
| noticed that the kittens as
they became older failed to play
like kittens taught by a mother
cat and their voices remained
weak and thin. In many ways
they showed a lack of cat teach
ing. On the other hand, they
adopted some of the ways of tn,
hen. They would scatter lik'
chickens and would scratch il
imitation of the hen. | did no
see them eat the insects whicl
they found, excepting grasshOI
perS. Mr.. Parsons was a pract
cal man and wanted eggs, so h
killed the kittens. If had know
what he intended to do / shout,
have offered TO buy the lot foI
further study. The intelligence,
Of the cat, hen and kittens, under
strange conditions, was so evi
dent that a dull observer could
not make a mistake. The cat rea
sOned that the hen would take
| good care of her family and she
was cOntcnted, like some human
mothers that give their babies
away. The hen understood fully
that the kittens would not eat the
insects which she found and rea
sOned that she must look foI
food in another direction and in
diligently acted upon this rea
sOning.
