The managers appointed pa to set

argued with those people was a eau

pa tried to show her relatives that as
she was old and helpless and more or
less burden to the family. they ought
to pay the show something for getting
her off their hands. One tramp had
his feet cut off, and pa tried to show
him how much he would save in shoes
the rest of his life, and that he was
in big luck. We left Pa at >Poug;l-
keepsie to settle the cases. and went
on to New York, and We heard the peopla
had lynched him, but he showed up
in couple of days with money left.
Now all the lawyers in New York are
after us, with claims, and they haze
attached most everything, and the
show is up against it.

]. Rules for Teacher.

IF. = - 1uASo AUA ASAC11SAs
= A word or two to the teacher on the
placing Of objects in their space may
be of use to him, though the child should
not be confused by such problems. The
object which by height, size, interest,
or quality isthe principal object in the
picture may occupy a place near the
center-the nearness to the center being
governed by the relative Importance
of what other object disputes it's inter-
est. (Note the upper right-hand ar
rangement in the illustrations on pro-
portion as had placement and the lower
center as good.)
1t will be better to study the arrange
ments that will be given with each SCI
Of picture forms than to take this rule
concerning placement as an invariab!e
one. So many considerations of color,
balance, etc, come up in each compost
ton that the rule would be of uncertain
use without the knowledge of the ex-
ceptions that govern it. 1t is given as
general aid as is the rule for balance,
which follows:
When one object is placed to one side
of the center it d emands another object
on the other side to preserve the sensa
OF pictorial equilibrium or balance.
In the three drawings included in
Group 3 the balancing. point is evident
These qualities are srcAen OF that the
teacher In his own efforts may have
something to which he can refer when
his own arrangements seem out of com.
position for any reason. He should n o.
work with them in mind SO much as
he should use the rules subsequently,
to correct and aid. 1t is quite important
that the child should not be hamperet
by any rules Of negative character
To tell the child not to do this and no.
to do that in it's arrangements is no,
helping it. Have it accept all sugges
lions and rules as positive. Let the ex
ceptions and negatives come later. L

learned it's speech. The single words

We thought we were smart when
we held up the railroad for damages
back in Pennsylvania, after the wreck,
but we are getting dose of our own

eral people were hit by tent poles and
hurt some, and it was the Widest
scene l ever saw, and people who go,
out alive ran away in the dark, and
somebody said the animals had all
got loose. and some of the people
never stopped running till daylight the
next morning.
Some run into the river. and the ar:
balances carried the injured to hos
pitfalls. Pa stampeded with the eie
pnants, and never showed up till moor

home, but now that the people are
working us for damages, for being
smashed up under our tent, we lool:
upon it as a crime, and tell them it
is ali act of Providence, and that ths

storm. But the lawyers can't be
very pious, for they won't believe i'll

Since we got settled in New York for

trains. We are all stopping at hotels,
and getting rested, and pa is having
a chance to shine.
The managers think pa is trying to
commit suicide. for he wants to take
the place of anybody who is sick
or drunk, and is the understudy If
everybody. We got one act that just
curdles your blood, a cage in the ring,
with lions and tigers and leopards, who
go through all kinds of stunts. One
lion rides a horse and jumps through
hoops, and lands ON the back of the
horse, and jumps on staging anG
lets the horse 60 around the ring, anG
then jumps on again. The horse is
blindfolded, SO he don't know it is a
lion that jumps on his back, but
thinks it, is a man.
The tigers ride, bicycles, and the
:eopards jump about wherever the
trainer tells them to-; a monkey acts
as clown, and a little elephant runs a
make-believe automobile. That act
alone is worth the price of admission

HORNBILL lMPRISONS MATE.
Male Bird Sees to It That the
Mother Is Faithful to
Her Trust.

a remarkable mode of incarceration
is practised by the hornbills, birds
with immense bills and horny crests,
which inhabit southern Asia, the Ma
layan islands, and Central and South
ern Africa. In most it not all species
the brooding female is walled up in a
hollow tree and fed by her mate, says
the Scientific American.
She remains confined in her prison
until the eggs are Matched, and in
some species until the young birds are
able to fly. Meanwhile the mother has
become temporarily incapable Of flight,
as she has>moulted, or at least shed all
her wing feathers, during her captivi-
ty. But the male is interchangeable in
providing for his family. and is said
to work so hard that he is reduced al
most to skeleton at the end OF the
brooding season.
According to the theory of many ma
tives the female is imprisoned to pre-
vent her neglecting her duty OF brood
ing. and if she had been unfaithful or
negligent her mate closes the little
window OF her cell and abandons her
to painful death b. suffocation The
true story, perhaps, is this: The fe-
male walls herself in so that she Can
not fall from the nest after losing her
feathers, and also to protect herself
from enemies. The building material
is her OWL exrement. This version is
less poetical than the other, but it is
probably nearer the truth. 1t is sup
ported by the statement that the fe-
male liberates herself as soon as the
young birds are well grown, so that
appears.

Never Tried a Case.


John H. Edleman~has been a justice
Henry county, Indiana; for IA years, but
in all that time, though many cases have
been before him, he has never tried one
of them. When a dispute arises be-
tween citizens, no matter what it may
be, he always manages to bring about a
compromise. There's no money in that
for me-" says Justice Edleman, ''but it
saves money for my neighbors, and
generally manage to send the contend
fng parties away in good humor." He
recently attracted some attention by Of
fering to perform marriage ceremonies
for so cents each and provide wedding
supper or breakfast for the couple.
Edleman, who is 20 years old, calls his
farm the Garden of Eden"
The Whole Sixteen. y
1t is said that reporter who was
assigned to talk with an American
millionaire, ON an important question
was repeatedly refused admittance to
his house. Then he sought out SEN
ator, who was a personal friend o; the
millionaire, and petitioned his aid.
Armed with the senator's card, he re-
turned to the millionaire's house and
sent in his talisman. This time he was
admitted. Young man. said the mill
lionaire, "do you know that 16 report
ers have called upon me about this
very question, and that I have refused
to see them all?" II ought to know it,
