Amongst the guests at a certain sea

with a countenance so gloomy that he
excited the interest of an amiable n
chatty old lady, who made an effort
to draw him into conversation.
It's a lovely day. she commenced.
Yes, wretched," replied the melan'
choly man, absently.
Somewhat perplexed, the lady IN
quired how he liked the place.

unpromising rejoinder.

pie here"

1t was not encouraging, but the old
lady was persistent, and deftly chang
ing the subject inquired his views on
the political situation.
Il think" he said, gloomily, we
shall have either a war or a reyolu-
ton. And" he added ominously, the
sooner the better"
After that the good old soul gave
it up, and sought an opportunity OF
taking counsel with the landlady on
the state of his mind.
The landlady smiled reassuringly.

"TARTANS" TO BE WORM.

The coming winter is expected to
be a distinctly tartan" one, for the
Scotch plaid is seen not only in dress
materials and trimmings, but Is intro
duced into wings and quilts and even
roses. Plain broadcloth costumes
have been fashioned by the leading
costumiers in Paris and London with
short sack coats and skirts trimmed
with narrow bands of pipings of tar
tan, and a distinct novelty is the little
green and blue tartan hip" coat
trimmed with collar and facings of
black silk poplin and finished with
old-silver buttons. Silk poplin, one of
the fashionable materials for the com.
ing season, Is being used for making
these little coats, with a judicious
trimming TARTAN for wearing with q
blue cloth skirt, and in juXtapositiou
is the skirt of brown and blue paid,
with orange stripe running through it
to accompany a plain brown cloth
sack coat. trimmed with military braid
ing, having on some models, a narrow
fiat piping of orange cloth or velvet
introduced on either side of the braid.

More courtship After Marriage.

Some men seem to consider their
marriage certificate as a sort of fully
paid-up policy of happiness. They act
as If the courtship days were those of
paying premiums of compliment,
~cheerfulness, courtesy, consideration
and chivalry, and that marriage cuts
off all these premiums of lover-like at
tention. The only way to get an abso-
lutely guaranteed insurance on matri-
mony is to keep paying the premiums.
Many first-class matrimonial policies
lapse just because of these suspended
payments. There is a tendency to as
sumo that this love is known and rec
ognized, SO why speak of 1t?
This is a dangerous taking for
granted of what should be made real,
pulsing and vital in thought, word and
deed. There Is little danger of over
telling this story; it Is often the wine
of life and inspiration to one hunger
ing and thirsting for the little ten
dernesses of affection. There are
more people on this gre t, big, rolling
earth hungering for sweetness, ten
derness, and words of appreciation,
genial confidence and generous affec-
ton than are starving for bread. With
husband and wife these delicate mes
sengers of affection cost so little
sometimes only a thought but 1t Is the
thought that is all. Continued court
ship after marriage, says the Delinea-
tor, preserves the lover in the hus-
band and the sweetheart in the wife.
But courtship is not solitaire; like a
quarrel, it requires two to make it a
success. 1t Is not the wife alone who
needs the gracious sweetness of con
centrated comradeship, for husbands
who are built on the right lines have
the same hunger for loving kindness
and kindly loving. Courtship is a
vessel of promise that is often wreck
ed on the shoals of matrimony. Court
ship means two mates without a cap
tain; marriage sometimes becomes
two captains without a mate.

a disease. The spendthrift of his time
Is no worse than the miser of it, who
must needs have every moment at

who steals from tomorrow for the
benefit of to-day, he has his counter

Scientific men have at last discov.
cred how to catch the octopus. All you

York aquarium. AS a general thing
II has been found impossible to take
this creature alive and In health, be-
cause as soon as any object touches
one of its tentacles, or "feelers," 1t

the limbs may be, and generally are,

however, that salt s~prinkied upon the

MOTHERS SOMETIMES LAY DOWN
sCEPTER TOO EARLY.
Mistake to Allow Children to Hurry
Parents Out of Middle Age, Where
They Belong, Into Old Age,
Says Writer.
BY MARGARET e. SANGSTER.
Copyright, by Joseph b. Bowles.)

Copyright, by Joseph b. Bowles)
In the history of every home a
period is reached when the mothers
stop training the children and the
children begin training the mothers.
The process of training always in
wolves a disagreeable side to the per-
ons trained. Children, for instance,
see when grown up that the truest
kindness to them was shown when
they we're not allowed to have their
W way, but in the early years they
often enough felt rebellious when re-
strained or denied. The moulding
touch may be so gently given and edu-
cation may be conducted with SO much
tact that pleasure predominates. AS a
rule, there is some friction during
training whether colts or children or
parents are the subjects.
Mothers arrive by im|perceptible
stages at the point whore they cease
to take the initiative and the children
take it for them. Occasionally they
feel a mild surprise when a grown up
daughter calmly advises them to do
this or not to do the other; when
there is interference with their dress,
their comings and goings. and when
innovations are introduced in the
household management. A strong
willed mother does not easily yield
her precedence and in her case the
children have to wait until a fit of i'll
ness, a long visit or an absence of
some sort gives them their oppor-
tnnity. Once she yields an inch, they
take an ell. The maternal sceptre
laid down temporarily is seldom re-
sumed with its previous vigor. Often
the training of the middle aged mother
is so tenderly and sweetly undertaken
and accomplished that she slips into
the background without being aware
that she has practically abdicated her
position as queen.
Yet it happens every day that WON
en- by no means old, not at all weak
ened in mind or body, and as thor
oughly %conversant with affairs as ever
they were, simply through granting
concessions to their adoring children
lose the rank of reigning sovereign to
which they are entitled.
Beware of letting your children
persuade you that you must take care
of yourself, that you must not go here
or go there, or get too tired" said a
wise man to a friend.
Going down hill needs no exertion;
1t Is just the lightest push here at the
top of the hill and off you speed never
climbing back again. Children often
hurry mothers out of middle age where
they belong into old age where they
do not belong"
There Is a very beautiful and
