Denver's Unique Boys Court.
From ths Review of Ravier.s

from lii2 1tevieW OF Reviews.
Judge Lindsey's method of holding
u is unexampied. He has taken his
place among the boys as one Of them
serves. He talks to- them i'm their own
language and makes free use of their
slang. His method of examination ia
lfatefnal rather thar paternal. He even
fosters in the boys the idea that his
own tenure of office depends upon their
good behavior.
It's Just this way" he saws .J.d
IKE to keep you fellows out of Golden
the town where the boys industrial
school is ~located-"but I'm afraid if I
DO III loose my job. People are always
saying that I'm too lenient with you
Kids anyhow. and If l do let you off
you'll go out and swipe something
again. and then I'll get blamed for 1t,
aud. like AS not I'll get kicked out Of
his court
The consequence of this is that Judge
Lindsey is often earnestly assured BY
the boys that he needn't worry about
them getting into trouble"-an assur-
ance which Judge Lindsey always re-
ceives with grave thanks.
Another impression among the boys
which Judge Lindsey does nothing to
correct liz that the police OF Denver are
against III court and in favor of put
ting all h boys in Jail. Therefore. it
is believed that every time a boy on
~ k"o6ht III ~ lew OHGnSp
the cops" have a joke on the Judge.
The result is a universal pride in fool
ing the cops" and staying with the
court. 4.
An unforeseen outgrowth of this SYM
pathetic understanding is the voluntary
d~elinquent. This is a boy who comes
TO Judge Lindsey Of his own free viii
to own up to IA fault or vice which he
cannot overcome by himself and to ask
the Judge for help. There have been
nearly two hundred Of these in the PAST
two years. Often the boys under pro
patton bring them in. and the Judge
himself is always careful to let n h.,
known that the court is az anxious tn
help a boy who has never been ar
rested as a boy who has. 1t is partly
due to this that the boys in Denver are
not ashamed OF having beer before
Judge Lindsey. but speak OF them
selves with pride as belonging to the
Juvenile court

FirSt Tarid Makers.

If you turn to map of Spain, you will take note at its southern point and running out into the strait of Gibraltar of a promontory which from its posi- ton Is admirably adapted for con- mandlng the entrance of the Mediter- ranean sea and watching the entrance and exit of all ships. A fortress stands upon this promontory, called now, as 1t was called in the time of the Moorish Nomination in Spain. Tarifa. The name is of Moorish origin. It was the GUS tom of the Moors to watch from this point all merchant ships going into or coming out of the midland sea and to levy duties according to a fixed scale on all merchandise contained therein. This duty was called from the place where it was levied 'tarifa," or tariff.

Too Much Exercise,

Unfortunately good many men have the conviction that they must keep exertng themselves all the time. They call every moment wasted which is not spent ill activity of some kind. either physical or mental Such men are taking the quickest means to burn themselves out You cannot live well and keep happy under q constant and tyrannical sense of effort. There must be times of play. times to let up the tension and to do easy and natural things which don't require conscience and exact attention. Horace Bushnell, the great Connecticut minister, recog- nized this when he said, Let's go sln awhile" Shining has the advantage of being easy, and there are times when the easy thing is the right thing. A man who takes no time off for one kind of play or another, but who keeps the anxious, conscientious look on hls face day in and day out, may be on the road to heaven, but he will find that the sanitarium is way station.-Dr. Luther H.

ARTIFICIAL FLOWERS.
Each Part of the Larger Ones Is
 Made by Specialists.

Artificial flowers were invented by pious nuns. Tn the Italian convents the atars and shrines were up to the end of the eighteenth century deeorat- eda with artificial flowers, laboriously put together, of paper, parchment and other stiff materials. In Venetian warehouse the most wonderful pro ductions of natural flowers are ex= 'hibited in glass cases, and in many cases, not only the richest and most brilliant colors, but the very scent of the flowers has been stolen from na- ture, for some of the artificial flowers are steeped in the perfume distilled from the flower which 1t represents. Last century Swiss invented a ma chine for cutting out the leaves and petals, but 1t can only be used for the smaller kinds. such as are wanted for hyacinths, lilies of the valley and oth- CT small flowers. In larger petals the Irregularities of manual work are pre- ferred to the stiff and correct forms produced by machinery. This material of which the petals are made is woven in special factories. The scissors and other tools used by the girls employ ed as well as the presses in which the veins are traced on the leaves are of 8 shape specially adapted to the work. Each part of flower is made by spe= cialists. In one room. for instance, only stalks of flowers and leaves are made; in another. fruits and berries of all kinds are east if they are wax or 9blown if made of glass The clever est workers are employed in making blossoms of the single petals and bou- uuets, wrea ths and garlands of the sin- !xle blossoms.-Dundee Advertiser.

A Curious Tomb.

The most curious tomb in England is that of Lady Anne Grimston, daughter of the Earl of Thanet, who died nearly two centuries ago and Has buried in Tewin churchyard. Upon her deathbed she disregarded the efforts of those who sought to administer spiritual comfort. An atheist she had lived. an atheist she would die. Tt is as likely that should rise again from the dead, she said. "as that a tree should grow out of the middle of my coft1n." A tree has grown out of the middle of her cotfin-an oakland by it's side syca- more. The vault is square, of brick and granite The two trees first filed the interior before they could find q way out. When they did burst through the masonry they so spread as com pletely to envelop the grave.
