The Freshman respects all the Seniors,
He regards them with awe most pro.

He bows himself down to the ground.

When the sun sheds abrtsl its great

For it will not be long now to wait,

To have their picture taken twice,
did not seem to satisfy the Betta
Gamma boys, so this society had their
picture taken separate just after the
High School was taken collectively.
While The pt rtormance was going on.
Mr.. Tuner stood at an upstairs

were all IiRht, had their hands out of
their pockets, their feet in not too
prominent place aud TO zee that the
little fellows behaved. At the same
time the artist who was to take the
pictures, stood in front, with his ap.

ance of Pure Air.

AS buildings are now constructed
and overheated. many people have to
spend at least a part OF their waking
hours in fetid atmosphere, says a
writer in The Delineator. But there
is no excuse for sleeping in such an
atmosphere. We spend one-third Of our
lives in sleep; we also breathe more
deeply when asleep than when awake
and we should sleep in the open air,
or as near to it as possible. Walk
through a residence street at night
and look at the bedroom windows;
they are all tightly closed. Occasion
ally one is a stingy three or four
inches down from the top. This Is done
by some advanced individual to let out
the bad air. II all the bad air went out
of that room there would be no air
left. There should be no bad air in a
bedroom. Every window and door Of
the bedroom should stand wide open
every night in the year. The air should
be the same inside as outside. While
asleep the lungs should be connected
with outside air just as they are when
We walk the street. Sufficient covering
should be used to keep the body warm
ut night just as We put on sufficient
clothing to keep 1t warm when we go
outside. Only the face Is exposed under
both conditions.

The woes of the amateur gardener
are very amusing to others, but de-
cidedly real to the man who has
spoiled suit of clothes, blistered his
hands and lost his temper in his eff
forts to make things grow.
A young man, recently married,
early in the spring secured SUBJ
urban place, mainly with the idea Of
fresh, homegrown vegetables Every
evening he would hurry through his
supper and rush out to his garden,
where he displayed more energy than
skill. But, alas! When many little
green things began to break the
ground in his neighbors' gardens, his
own remained as bare as the Sahara.
'It certainly has got me beat" he
confided to friend at his Office one
day. 81 can't understand why not a
blessed thing has come up. I planted
peas and corn and tomatoes"
Perhaps the seed were reflective"

MADE A NEW FASHION.
Good Joke Played In Old Days Ga
WouId-Be Fashionable.

Old Camden, in his Remains" tells
a good story of trick played by q
knight upon q would-be fashionable
shoemaker Sir Philip Calthrop
purged John brakes, the shoemaker
Ut Norwich in the time of King Henry
VIII, Of the proud humor which our
people have to be of the gentlemen's
cut. This knight bought as much fine
French tawny cloth as should make
him gown, and sent it to the tailor's
to be made. John brakes, a shoe
maker, coming to this tailor's and see
Ing the knights gown cloth lying
there, bid the tailor buy cloth of the
same price and pattern and make it
OF the same fashion as the knights.
Not long after the knight, coming in
to the tailor to be measured for his
gown, and perceivfng the like cloth
lying there, asked whose it was.
John brakes, the shoemaker, who
will have it made of the self-same
fashion that yours is made of" "Then
make mine as full of cuts as the
shears will make it," John brakes
had no time to go for his gown till
Christmas day, when he meant to
wear it. Perceiving the same to be
full of cuts, he began to swear at the
tailor. II have done naught but what
you bid me-" quoth the tailor, ''for
as Sir Philip Calthrop's garment is,
even so have I made yours" "By my
latchet!" quoth John brakes, II will
never wear gentlemen's fashions
again!"-London T. P's Weekly.
