est chum day or two after the in
cident. "Her father thinks nothing
of letting her have $5oor $Ioo when
ever she asks for it. Ny room is hor-
rid. Jessie is having hers done over
beautifully. 1t will be a perfect
dream"
AS fate would have it, the girl S
father was president of a bank and
had been about to extend helping
hand to the struggling man. He de-
cided, influenced by his daughter S
chatter, to withhold the aid he had
meant to give, and Jessie's father
went under. After middle age it is
hard to retrieve a lost position, and
bitter poverty was the fual portion
of that household.
POOR FURNITURE BETTER THAN
DEBT.
Never to expend on externals that
which cannot be afforded without a
strain is rule that should have no
exceptions. Threadbare carpets and
shabby chairs and tables may better
be endured than wakeful nights and
the visits of creditors who need their
just dues. Socially, we are bound in
one bundle, and unless tradesmen are
paid promptly there begins an endless
chain of annoyance and fret, which
goes through community disturbing
the general peace.
Debts should not be incurred un-
less there is a measurably sure way
Of paying them PAY as you go" is
the most honest of maxims. Have a
margin for emergencies, for the un-
expected, for illness, for sudden jour
ney or the relief ofsomeone poorer than
yourself.
Do not, however, economize more
than you can help on the education
of sons and daughters.
The very best investment that can be
made in a family is that which is Civ
en- the children to prepare them
to adorn the stations they shall oc-
cupy when chilhhood is past and they
shall reach maturity. 1t is by no
means necessary that your children
shall inherit a fortune, but it is good
thing for them to have the means of
carving out their own path and max
ing their own fortunes by their brains
and hands.
Parents may economize so closely
and save strenuously that they will
leave large fortunes to those who will
be quite unfit to carry the loads. The
money is not wasted that is spent III
giving special training along any line
to gifted boy or girl. No one can
hope for success in this age of COM
petition who has not had the benefit
of an almost exhaustive preparation
and very thorough training. The
money that is spent on the children
for their development and physically
is we'll spent.
Parents are sometimes so unwise as
to give everything to children by
legal enactment, trusting to the chill
dreu to take care of them in their old
age. Naturally they expect that this
will be Joy to the children for whom
they have done SO much but it some
times happens that when the latter
marry the newcomers in the family do
not take kindly to caring for impecu-
NOUS old people. A wiser way is to
have something snugly put by for old
age and to retain at least indepen-
dence until life's latest day. .--CoHy-

IN WONDERLAND.

Where did I spend my pleasant vacationP
In a bit of wonderland
In Yellowstone Park? Not at all: that Is trip
for the future. This wonderland I speak of was
much more accessible, and had the added merit Of
little expense.
Tell you about it? With pleasure. Well. you
know we spent last year in Salt Lake CITY Here
we were only about forty miles from some OF the
finest scenery in the Rocky Mountains You DON'T

fortunate ones who know OF her many beautiful
corners.

many hours. not days weeks, and you Will agree

Our destination was the Hot Pots. Now pre-
sumo you never heard of them. We made this trip
on horseback. four OF us starting at 430 a. m that
lovely summer morning, horses fresh and eager to
go before that great ball OF fire should over
Twin Peaks and shine into our cool canyons
We were lightly packed, as accommodations could
be had at the Hot Pots. taking only light meal
for ourselves and the horses. From the time
entered the canyon until we reached the divide It
was a gradual ascent of about 1900 feet. but the
wonders of that canyon! The freshness over all
before the sun espied and decided to make the
trip tool Did you ever feel IL you were the very
first man on earth; as If nature had Just finished
Of IT? That is the way felt that morning in the
canyon At 70 o'clock we reacheo our highest point

on top Of the divide we could see over saddle
into this valley; By scanning closely we could
mako out the Hot Pots, great haystacks they
looked dozen Of them giinmering in the brilliant
sunlight Is If some giant had been giving his best
inspection these "haystacks" proved to be lime
formations thrown up by the immense heat Of the
hot springs under them. Some were conc shaped
and others had burst open, leaving the interior of
1be cone dry and m. The lining TO shell
showed many colors, while the bed OF pot

PLANS FOR SILVER LAKE.
To Be First of Many Public Parks
ON Staten Island.

The Department OF Parks is now at work on
plans for the improvement Of Silver Lake Park
in the hills of Staten Island. which IS to be the
first Of a series of large parks in the Borough
of Richmond. It was said yesterday that the
Board Of Estimate would soon be asked for an
appropriation to continue the work begun by
the Richmond County Park Association.
The park was brought to public attention
through The Tribune on Sunday by the fact that
those who live in the Silver Lake region were
getting up a petition of protest against the
nightly revels held at a German beer garden
and dancing pavilion on the shore OF the lake
and entirely within the property owned by the
city. The citizens wanted to know why such a
place was permitted to operate If the city was
really in control of the park.
The secretarty of the Department Of Parks
said yesterday that the present arrangement
with the proprietor Of the saloon was merely 4
temporary one. The city took over the park
about two months ago and found the saloon in
operation 1t had been there for long time
and was regularly licensed. The department
was assured by the members Of the Richmond
Park Association that the proprietor was trust
worthy and that the place carefully man
aged. There was no sign Of protest from the
neighbors.
According to the secretary of the Park Board
with the saloon man, under which he paid the
city $50 a month and looked after the letting
OF boats on the lake in return for the privilege
OF continuing in business. The city has no or
canned park force in Richmond Borough as
yet for until Silver Lake Park was created
there were only two small squares or grass
plots in the borough
Silver Lake Park consists OF sixty-fve acres
OF which fifteen are covered with the water of
the lake. 1t is Of the most beautiful spots
on Staten Island. and it is to be given natural
treatment. Already fine drive has been laid
out along the shore of the lake. connecting in
two places with the main highway. The i'm
provements will include the construction of
walks and paths, and possibly the construction
Of q summer house. in which restaurant priv
fleges will be let to the highest bidder, as is
done in other city parks. Some Of the men,
bers of the board favor buying additional prop
erty to the west of the lake, where the city's
line is only few hundred feet back from the
water.
In the mean time the citizens Of Grymes Hill
are going ahead with their petition to the De-
parsment of Parks, asking that some curb be
put on the gayety at the little hotel on the
lake. They particularly object to the crowds of
noisy picnickers. who have been diverted from
the beach resorts by the advertising which Sill
yer Lake has lately received.

SCARE FOR MARRIED TEACHERS.
Rumor of General Suspension Has Small
Foundation.

The married teachers OF the public schools have
been alarmed in the last few days by run1or that
the Board Of Education high official of
the Department of Education has caused the sus-
pension Of several married teachers as a preIimi-
nary step to general removal of all who have
profted by the concession made by the Board of
Education year ago.
This rumor is not true. The Court Of Appeals
has decided that the Board of Education cannot
dismiss married teachers. AS teachers marry their
names are reported to the board. that the names
may be changed in the official records If the law
ever gives the board the absolute right to suspend
teachers for marrying no teachers previously mar
red can be interfered with, since retroactive laws
prohibited by the Constitution Of the United
States
The rumor started in the announcement that
three teachers had been suspended. OF the three
one was suspended because of continued absence
without leave; another, because she had married
and moved away to Pittsburg and had forgotten
to resign, and the third for another infraction OF
the hYlaWS.

SPORT TO CHECK SPREES.
"Gyms" at Military Posts You'd
Lessen Drunkenness, Sqgs Edgerlg.

Washington, Oct. 3.-Were there more arnuse-
ments and exercises for soldiers there would be
less drunkenness. This is the argument made
by Brigader General W. s. EdgerIy, command
ing the Department of the Luzon, in his last re-
port. The general accordingly urges that the
government establish at the various posts
casinos and gymnasiums. where the garrisons
might find relaxation in games and sports.
The general also says that the contemplated
exchange of clerks between the United States
and the Philippine Islands does not seem 20
have materialized to any great extent. He states
that the old men Of the QuarterTnaster's De-
partment in the United States who have given
the best years of their lives to that service and
who have families and in many instances ac-
quired homes for them, should not be compelled
to break up those homes or leave their families
for three years in order to go to the Philippine
archipelago. under entirely different environ
ments from those to which they used.
