A Small Fire.

The fire department was called yes
terday afternoon to Dr.J. ii. Wilson's
home on Chillicothe Avenue. but the
brave women had extinguished the
blaze that was burning the lining of
the wood house. 1t is thought the
fire caught from a broom which had
been used to sweep about the kitch-
en- stove and then hung up with an
other broom, for both brooms were
burned and the charred wood work
proves the theory.

under loaded truck, and his leg was
twisted, so as to dislocate the right
ankle and break the small bone of the

The Possibilities In Raising Boys.

In retrospecting the past with re-
gard to the care and training of
children 1 see many failures, but
am thankful to be able to commit
them all to Him whose province it is
to bring good out of evil. And now
with my days in the ''sear and yell
low leaf am still entertained with
suggestions and object lessons on
this subject. Under this head may
be classed the following incident:
On a lovely afternoon a short time
previous to our last Thanksgiving,
two ladies called at our door. One
of them was of medium height and
build, a bright, intelligent face, at
tired in a cream colored raglan, and
introduced herself as Mrs. Miller.
adding, and this is my friend, Mrs.
Ferguson am looking for rooms to
rent We have lived in the Hawaiian
Islands for fourteen months, but were
obliged to leave on account of the
impure moral atmosphere of the
place for our boys. 1 brought them
to the States to educate them. Since
looking for rooms l have stated the
size of my family, adding have two
boys, when the people Indignantly
exclaim, Anything but boys, We
can't tolerate themm Somewhat ex-
asperated she makes her defense:
My boys are not more noisy or harder
to get along with than girls. l have
trained them this way. When 1 am
not well they get up and get the
breakfast, and turning to her friend
she remarked, Thomas makes the
best biscuit l ever ate. and together
they wash the dishes and clean up
the house. No, she continued, have
two boys, IL and IA. and a Shetland
pony, and would like to be located on
Golden Hill L remarked 1 thought
there were pleasant rooms to rent in
the second house from ours, and sure
enough by IL o'clock the next day ar
rangements were completed, and on
the following Monday they took pos
session. In consideration of Mrs
Miller's claims to success as a moth
er, became an interested observer
comparing and estimating on every
occasion. The first event was the
passing of the mother and boys
Thomas and Harvey, in the cart
drawn by the pony Juno. In recogni.
tion 1 waved my hand to Mrs. Miller
when both boys, without any previ
GUS knowledge of me, promptly lifted
their caps, simply falling in line with
their mothers response.
1In calling her boys from outside
Mrs. Miller does not scream. If they
cannot be summoned by the usua
tone of voice she taps a small bell
Their home entertainments are
largely musical. The boys have sucf
instruments as are suited to theil
years, Mrs. Miller herself being {:
fine musician. In playing ball il
front of their home, indeed in no wa,
are the boys boisterous. In going t,
school they walk quietly and low
ingly. Mrs. Miller says she treat
them more as her brothers thar
children.
In closing this sketch shall we no
render to this mother an enconimuu
similar to the one given the virtuou
woman in Proverbs: MANY daugh
: tiers have done well, but thou ex
cellest them all.n

No Offer for PreSby-
teridn Church.

The report given out yesterday
that the B. & N. Railway had offered
$4,000 for the Presbyterian church
and site was without foundation.
We are informed by one of the di-
rectors of the road that several
months ago he was told to inquire for
what figure that property could be
purchased. There had never been
an offer made, and he was sure it
would not be necessary for them to
pay that amount for any property.

conscience tells you is not right, you
will not get caught in any gambling
schemes or get-rich-quick swindles.
If you lose money in one of these

YOU had won and the other fellow had
lost, you would not have been con-
cerned about his loss. Do to others
as you would have them do to you.
