Travel Of a Pennsylvania Teacher.

Milan Walker, son of cx-Sheriff
Miles Walker of Center county, who
last June graduated from the Belle
fonte high school, Just closed his first
term of teaching school, and with it
he has made quite record.
His school was at Rock Forge,
which is seven miles from Bellefonte;
preferring to board at home, he walk
ed these Ia miles each day, with the
exception of IA trips which he made
on a bicycle. The distance covered
during the term was 2,156 miles, and,
taking from that the $50 miles which
he travelled on his bike" leaves 1896
miles which he walked. He left Belle
fonte early in the morning, and quite
often the thermometer registered 10 to
IA degrees below zero. In addition he
broke his way through the snow to
the school house and made fire. hav-
ing the room warm before school was
called at nine Observation-Disclosures

Conscience Stricken Student.

Not all the conscience stricken men
are as guilty as they seem. The Lon
don & Northwestern Railway company
has experience of supersensitive un.
dergraduate, who begged their ac-
ceptance of the sum of ESQ. He
could not be found guilty Of travelling
without a ticket or of having commit
ted any of the other small sins q
which passengers are sometimes
found guilty. When travelling to and
from college he had always had with
him number Of books, passengers
luggage. 1t had since dawned upon
him that he ought to have paid for the
freight Of these books-that they were
not legitimate passengers luggage.
The company returned the check with
thanks and praise and all things nice
for his scrupulous conscientiousness
But he sent 1t back and insisted upon
its acceptance. The company did not
a second time risk refusal; they pooled
1t with the other companies over
whose lines he had passed and went
their way rejoicing.

Hooking the Wary Trout.

Trout when hungry usually face the
current. This fact should be re-
membered when approaching bridge
or eddy where the "speckled beauties
love to hide" II possible. such spots
should be approached upstream, says
the Circle. 1t may take little more
time to go around and come back up,
but make haste slowly" is said to be
the first axiom of trout fishing.
As the stream becomes warmer, the
trout seek the cool pools and shaded
places. They are to be found where a
cold spring bubbles up into the stream
or where a mountain creek enters; Of
ten number frequent the same haunt.
Each additional fish means two more
eyes to watch for the fisherman. One
trout is all that is necessary to give
danger signal by darling away. The
rest Immediately follow suit. To catch
mora than one-or even that--in such
/ place takes skill In the use OF the
line. But who has said trout fishing ID
aot an art?

Costs to Keep Umbrellas.

time came back to me with unusual
force this morning" remarked the
careful man. II received my umbrel-
la back from the repair man with a
bill for s3.s5 for recovering 1t and put
ting In a new ferrule. The umbrella
cost me $3.50. I've had it
four years now and in that time 1t has
been recovered twice so that 1t stands
me In nearly double its original cost.
But then ! suppose that is the price

able to keep one umbrella for so long"

THE FIRST CURTAIN CALL.
Voltaire One to Whom Original Honor
Was Paid.

At the first performance in Berlin
OF Gerhart Hauptmanns "Jungfrau
Won Bischofsberg" the author was re-
peatedly called before the curtain.
aud the incident caused inquiry as to
when and where the practice of honor
Ing an author in that way originated.
The Rerliner Tageblatt gives this an
swer: The first call took place on
the evening Of February 26, 1743. On
that memorable evening Voltaire's
'Merope' was performed for the first
time in Paris. The author was known
to the Paris public, but nothing that
they had seen of him had pleased
them 30 much as 'Merope,' and the en-
thusiasm found expression in noisy
demands to see the author. In @
letter Voltaire says this of the Incl
dent: They dragged me out and led
me by force to the box occupied by
the Duchesse de Villars and hel
daughter-ln.law. The whole theatel
seemed to have gone mad-all shout
ed to the duchesse to kiss me. The
noise became so great that the lad!
finally obeyed. So | was like AlaiI
Charter, publicly kissed, but he wal
asleep, while / was wide awake Nov
authors answer similar calls by ap
pearing before the curtain. They gail
insofar that they can be seen bette
by their audience, but they must dis
pense with the duchess kiss-at leas

The Camera Flend's Vanderbilt.

As the sun day by day ascends the

light increases, rhapsodizes the editor
of the American Amateur Photograph.
Ter, there seizes us once more the
fervor of the enthusiast. From the
high shelf down comes the camera, the
plate holders are loaded, and we tramp

tures-or pretending to. For half the

PRISONERS IN A CAVE.
Party Of Picnlckers Has Exciting Ad
venture In Basutoland.

A remarkable incident occurred In
Basutoland recently, writes the Lon
don Mails Durham correspondent. A
picnic party decided to make trip
into the Basuto country, which they
entered by pass known as the Lahl'
Ingubo, on the Natal frontier, and en-
camped for the night in a cave in the
Drakensberg. Proceeding on their
journey the following day they asked
a native to direct them to a cave In
which they could take their midday
meal. The Basuto appears to have
Igiven information of their presence,
for toward evening the party was In
tercepted by number OF natives, the
old man who appeared to be in charge
carrying gun. The Europeans were
then arrested, accused of being white

which had the appearance OF noun

were turned astray, and the headman
telling them that they would not be
ALLOWED to re-enter Natal, signifiec
that they would have to continue with
out their horses, and would have tc
carry their saddles. After a nigh
spent under surveillance in a cave the
Basutos maintaining close watcf
upon their captlves, the party made
their escape by means of strategem
in which they were assisted by the
Basuto guide, who helped them to cap

SCHOOL HABITS IN PERSIA.
Boys Sit on Floor and ReeIte Lessons
as II Chanting.


Oriental children have their mar
lies, their skipping rope and the little
toy plows into which cats and kittens
are harnessed for play. They enjoy
life fully as much as do American
children. When the boys are 10 years
old they are sent to school In the
nearest mosque. Parents will some
times take boy to school and de-
liver him over to the gentle care OF
the teacher with these words: His
bones are mine, but his flesh Is yours.
Teach him and punish him as you see
1T"
When boys go TO school they usu-
ally sit in two rows. One row sits
along one wall, books in hand, and
the other row along the opposite wall.
The teacher sits In the middle OF
the room. They do not use chairs.
but sit on the floor, which Is COW

they are studying their lessons they

In learning to write. They put their

OLD LOVE CHARMS
ANCIENT METHODS OF WINNING
HEART OF LOVER.
0rotesque Indeed Were Some Of the
Mummeries Implicitly Believed
ln-Leavlng the Choice Of
SWANS to Fate.

When Othello the Moor courted an6
won the fair Desdemona he was &C
cused Of doing 80 by spells and medi
cines."
In Shakespeare's day, and indeed
long after, spells and charms of ali
kinds were, II not exactly an orthodox
yet at least a we'll recognized way OF
winning lovers heart, or divinine
who was to be the future life partner.
a good way to secure continuance
Of love vas to go secretly to the lover
as he lay asleep and steal his garter.
Then 1t must be knotted together with
the girls own t. he words:
Three times a true lovers knot I tie se-
cure
Firm be the knot. fast may his love
endure.
If youths affections had gone
astray, the forsaken one, II she de-
sired revenge, took birds heart and
stuck 1t full of pins at midnight. The
result was supposed to bring about
the appearance of the false lover in an
agony of pain.
II, on the contrary, there was no
good evidence of his having forsaken
her to whom he had plighted his troth,
but the girl nevertheless suspected
the genuineness of his intentions, she
could ascertain the truth by taking
the bladebone Of shoulder Of NUT
ton without saying for what she re-
Quired 1t. For nine nights she must
pierce it with a penknife, each night
In different place. II the lover were
true, at the end of the nine days he
would ask her for rag to bind up the
wound he had received.
The recipe for taking away a mans
love for girl was, as It ought to have
been, both unpleasant and difficult o.
performance.
II 80 be toad be laid
In a sheepskiD, newly fayed,
And that tied to man, twill sever
Him and his affections ever.
Did a girl desire to know II she WA
ever to be wed, she must take the rin'
Of two lemons and carry 1t in he
pockets all day. Then at night sh
must rub with the rind the four post
of her bed. If she was to be marrie
man would appear in her dreams
If there were no sign Of man sh
must resign herself to single blessed
ness.
To choose between two lovers, tw
apple pips were taken and given tn
names of two men. Then they wer
stuck carefully one on to each cheel
The one that stuck longest was tn
chosen swain.
Another favorite plan was to TAX
number of corn cobs, put them Il
gether two and two, and give eac
pair the name of some loving coupl'
Then the cobs were popped over tn
fire, and according to whether the
jumped apart or remained together s
was the future of the two who's
names they bore.
The initial Of the lover could be o
tanned by throwing an apple parin
over the left shoulder.
To ascertain how many years wou
elapse before marriage, 1t was best
ask the cuckoo, and by counting h
cries the number was obtained.
Special days had special charms
lotted to them. On st. Valentine
day an. especially favorable day Il
love omens, as one would suppose. Il
first man seen after sunrise was dc
tined to be the future lover.
