Answer-The law in such case as
this is somewhat peculiar. The gen
erall rule is that the parent is never
liable for thextorts, that is the wrongs,
of his minor child, unless such torts
were committed with the parent s
consent or in connection with the
parents business. A reasonable par
ent would probably be willing TO
pay reasonable amount for the
breaking of a window glass, but there
is no law TO compel him to do SO,
merely because his child has caused
the trouble. Ii is not the aim of the
law to make one person suffer or pay
for the misdeeds OF another, unless
he has in some way countenanced
such misdeed.

even as the lowliest peasant of his
mighty Empire.
Peter the Great, founded the great
city Of st Petersburg, but the best
thing he did for his Empire, was to
open It's doors to western civilization,
his ideas and plans living after him to
fultlment through his people, whom
he had infused with his magnetic
spirit. Catherine II, while intellect
ual comprehensive in her plans, strong
in their execution, and a wonderful
diplomat, adding much to Russia's
territory, was utterly devoid Ct con-
science. She was succeeded by her
son, Paul, who advanced the country
to the rank Of first-class power, and
under Alexander I, Russia held the
balance of dominic in Europe.
Alexander / was followed by his
son, Nicholas I, stern despot, with
an inordinate faith in Russian PROV
ess His over-confidence brought on
the Crimean war, in which Russia was
arrayed against Great Britain, France,
Italy and Turkey, and which resulted
in the success of the allied armies.

ROMANCE OFA COAT.
An Old Clothes Dealer Whose Kindly
Act Melted Him Twenty-Five
Dollars

The world Is full of romance. Their,
are persons who deny this, but Their,
are persons who deny God and gravi
tation. Romance Is not confined t
novels and the hearts Of girls. II
crops out often in strange places ant
sometimes in austere natures. But II
is not often that romance is found
in the pocket Of q cast.of coat. How
ever this story proves it. The story
comes from New York. A dealer in
old clothes, asserting his collection Of
"has-been" raiment found in the pocket
of a coat that had seen better days, q
letter. 1t was sealed and addressed to
lady in an aristocratic part of the
city far removed from the section of
the city in which the old clothes man
lived and worked. He laid the letter
aside, thinking that some day when
the spirit moved him and times were
prosperous he would stamp and post
1t.
Perhaps 1t was several days later
when he had occasion to call for q
bundle Of disowned apparel in part
OF the town near the home Of the ad-
dressee of the letter. He took the
missive with him, called at the house,
was brushed aside by the man at the
door, but lady emerging at that mo-
ment, he handed the letter to her.
She tore 1t open in great haste and as
she read 1t bushes redeemed her face
and a happy smile spread over her
lips. She folded the letter, put It In
her purse and handed the "old clo'
man" IS note. He felt that he had
not only done good deed but had
been rewarded.
A week passed and a dapper, we'll
groomed man entered his shop. He
said he was the original owner Of the
coat from which the letter had been
recovered. He said that in the letter
he had proposed marriage to the girl |
he loved and thought he mailed it. |
Receiving no reply he believed that he |
lad been rejected and left the city. |
lie had recently received an adorable |
reply from the young lady with an ex-
PLANTATION as to how the letter had |
been delivered and-the wedding day |
had been set. All this he thought was
due to the "cld clo' man." To the man
who had rendered him such good ser
vice he handed $40 note.
The moral OF this romance Is do o
Kindly act when you can" Another
moral might be drawn from the incl
lent, and this Is: When you write an
'ffer If marriage to the girl you love,
De sure she gets the letter.

he added, confidentially, we've always
kept up the notion in the family that it
was poaching. It sounds more re-
spectacle than, than-you know what.
"But I say, jack" pursued the Grip
pie, transportation can't be as bad as
it's represented. It has softened your
voice, made you talk better and given
you quite a touch Of quality. You were
a roughish young blade when I bid you
goodbye at Milbank penitentiary. Do
you recollect how Bill Hawkins jeered
YOU because I gave you mothers lit
tie clasp Bible?"
Here was q pretty position for q re-
spectacle young fellow to occupy. For
