How the Section Boss Got the Tool
House In the Right Spot.

How the Section Boss Got the Tool
House In the Right Spot.
About ten years before the Eastern
railroad was leased by the Boston and
Maine that portion of the old road be-
tween SWampscott and Salem was in
charge Of Section Foreman Timothy
Moynahan
His strongest point was in doing
just as he was told and doing that
with energy and accuracy. So when
he was notified from Beverly by Road
master Stevens that the section lengths
were to be changed and that he was to
move his tool house from the westerly
end Of Salem yard to halfway between
mileposts 10 and 16 he started out with
the determination to move the house
halfway, no more, no less
To get this halfway point he sta
toned one Of his men at milepost 10
and another at milepost 16, and at a
signal they started to walk toward
each other until they met, and to a
point opposite their meeting place the
shanty was moved This method Of
SetClnS the i correct distance Clio not
quite suit Moynahan, especially when
he remembered that one of the walk
ers was taller than the other and the
other tripped several times on the way
down
He carried this in his mind for near
ly year, when he met the engineers
measuring through for signals and
| asked them to tell him as they meas
ured if his house was just halfway or
| not.
When the measurement was taken,
| the house was found to be sixty feet
nearer milepost 16 than Is, and Moyna-
han, on being told, remarked that he
thought he could fix things just right
Later in the year the engineer met
Moynahan in Salem and asked him if
his tool house was now halfway be-
tween the mileposts.
1T is" he replied cts just half
way"
did you have much trouble moving
ity'
''No trouble at ALL just let it stay
as it was and moved the milepost."-

"Home" In Our Language.

In no other language, according to
the London Telegraph, is there word
expressing the ideas and associations
which are aroused at the sound of the
simple yet heart touching word home y
A Frenchman once translated Cardinal
Newman's hymn, Lead, Kindly Light"
and in his hands the beautiful line
THE night is dark, and I am far from
home" became LA mutt est sombre, ct
je suis loin de mon foyer" the trans
lator having been obliged to use for
home the French word which describes
the green room of theater. The Ital-
ian and Spanish "casa,' the German
"haus"-their helm is too general to
have any particular value-and the
Russian donna" all refer to building
of some kind or other and have none Of
the memories and associations that
cluster round the precious English
word.

Diamonds In His Shoes.

Diamond ornaments in shoes bark
back to the days Of the Revolutionary
war and were worn by merchants Of
Boston in those days. Thomas Russell
of Charlestown, who died in 1895, was
one of the most active of business men
of his day in Boston and the first to
engage in the American trade with
Russia after the Revolution. His dress
was typical Of his time and is thus
described in an old print: "He usually
wore coat of some light colored cloth,
small clothes, diamond buckles at the
knees and in the shoes, silk stockings.
powdered hair and cooked hat and in
cold weather a scarlet cloak" Boston

Horses on Snow Shoes.

Horses wear snowshoes in Dakota
in winter. Thus equipped, they trot
lightly over drifts wherein they would
otherwise sink out Of sight. In some
parts of Dakota the snow lies all win
ter long eight or ten feet deep, but a
crust forms on it. and with snowshoes
men skim over it easily. So do snow
shod horses. The equine snowshoes are
made Of boards twenty inches long and
fourteen inches wide. An indentation
to fit the foot is branded on each board
with hot horseshoe, and the con-
trfyance is fastened on to the hoof
with an iron clamp and bolt. After
a day or two of practice a Dakota
horse becomes an expert snowshoer.

A LOAN REPAID.
The Fourth Earl Stanhope and the
Gentleraniy Hiohwavn1an

The Fourth Earl Stanhope and the
GentleraanIy Hiehwayman.
The fourth Earl stanhope when on
his way homeward late one dark
night was held up by the most gentle
manly of highwaymen who preferred
his request for money or the noble
mans life in quite the incest way. It
happened that Lord Stanhope had not
any money with him and was disin-
cl1ned to yield the alternative.
Your watch, them suggested the
gentleman at the opposite end of the
pistol. That watch, the earl explained,
was dear to him. He valued it at 100
guineas and would not surrender It,
What will d." he said, ''is to bring
and deposit in this tree the worth of
the watch in money, and you can call
and get it tomorrow night"
Done, M lord" said the highway
man.
The law knew nothing about this ar
rangement, and the earl did as he had
promised. He placed the 100 guineas
where the highwayman might at his
leisure collect it. And there, so far as
he knew, the matter ended.
Years afterward he attended great
banquet in the city and found himself
pleasantly entertained by an extremely
we'll known man whose signature was
good for a sum in several figures. Next
day came to Lord Stanhope letter in
closing the sum of 100 guineaS Ac-
companying it was note begging his
acceptance of loan granted some
years previously to the man who now
forwarded it,
That loan, said the letter, had ena-
bled the sender to gain a new start in
life, to make a fortune and to renew
acquaintance at dinner on the previous
night with his lordship. The city mag
nate and the highwayman of earlier
days were one and the same.-London

BoMsH DESIRE FOR WORK.
Often Sign of Arrested Development
Instead of Strength.

Instead of Strength.
Parents often think that their son is
especially promising because he wants
to get to work young, wants to leave
school and be earning. This is never
sign of strength, but always of weak
ness. When a boy wants to get to
work instead of getting ready to work
it indicates arrested development.
There is not one probability in fifty
that boy who desires to leave school
at the sixth grade and is allowed to do
so will ever amount to anything. 1t is
not the fact that he does not have as
much education as the other boys, but
that he does not have their purpose to
get ready for the doing Of things.
Teachers often greatly err in dealing
with such boys and their parents by
trying to show how important it is
that they should know what they will
learn in the seventh and eighth grades,
whereas that is the least part Of it. 1t
Is case of arrested development usu-
ally and this is what should be treat
ed, treated as a disease
We make lot Of talk about defec-
tive sight and hearing, and we do well,
but it is vastly more important that
we get busy" in defective mental pro-
gressive development There is a near
sightedness of parents and pupils that
is criminal 1t contributes to delin-
quency and, as I think, is within the
status of and subject to court punish
ment.
It sometimes shows itself in diverted
attention, in dissipated interest and
often in overathletic or fraternity zeal
The college theory is that the frater.
nifty chaps are the elect, but life does
not show that. The data are imperfect
at present. but there is enough to make
it wholly probable that when the fig
| ures are in it will be clearly shown
that in the last fifteen years when fra
| ternity life has been extra social anG
extra political in clannishness much OF
the fraternity zeal indicates approach
ing arrested development. 1t is en-
tirely clear already that this is charac
/ teristic of the high school fraternity
because it almost invariably means
that a set Of fellows dare not trus1
| themselves to win honors in the ope1
| contest but seek it as a favoritism by
means Of little band Of social high
| waymen, as many Of these high schoo
fraternities are.-Journal Of Education
