American Girls Wit Works Better
Than Strong Right Arm.

American girls, whose ideas OF indie
pendence do not agree with those Of
the French people, are bothered by
Washers whenever they attempt to go
about unescorted in Paris. No French
girl whose parents have a proper re.
card for her is ever allowed to do such
81 thing, and the idea has become I'm
planted In the native mind that any
young woman who appears alone is at
east unconventional.
1t did not take young and attrac-
tive American girl long to learn this
fact when she Travelled around Paris
as she was accustomed to in New
York. All manner Of men smirked at
her, lifted their hats, tried to act as
her escort and endeavored to begin
conversations.
But every one faded suddenly when
she gave him her anti-masher treat
ment, which worked better than a
strong right arm. To each she extend
ed her hand, palm up with one OF
these minute bits of fractional cur
rency that they have over there bal
anced on her palm.

Eating French, I'm so sorry you're SO
poor you have to beg. Here's all the

No masher ever persisted after that.

Beads are, perhaps, the oldest kind
OF ornaments in all countries of the
world, and among savage races their
value as form Of money is well
known.
The beauties of ancient Rome were
very much in favor of wearing amber
beads, amber having been introduced
after the expeditions Of the Romans
to Northern Europe.
Glass beads were first made by the
Egyptians, and the Phoenicians who
traded with Cornwall in far-off times
brought glass beads to the British
maidens, and when some of the an
cient "barrows" were opened Quanti-
ties of glass beads were found, as
fresh in coloring as the day they were
placed there with the corpse, says
Home Notes.
Venetian beads are world famous
!, on account of their marvellous hues
and Designs and, among the many at
fractions of Venice, the glass fac
tories at Murano should be omitted by
no visitor to the HQueen of the Adri'
attic"

GIVE THE BOY A MICROSCOPE.
viii Interest Him in the Wonders of
the Natural World. II

If you want to keep your boy out of
mischief give him a microscope, not
one of the elaborate, intricate, ex-
pensive affairs that the psychologists
use when hunting for germs, but a
common one, with two or three lenses
that revolve on pivot and fold into
cover, which protects them from in
jury when carried in the pocket
There is nc better way of interest
ing the boy in the wonders of the
natural world than this simple con-
triya3ce which opens to his eyes vi
sions of a universe of which he knew
nothing. See through the microscope
the most insignificant flower becomes
a thing of wonderful beauty. The in
terror of a nasturtium is fairy cav
ern, showing a dozen different tints
and hues of color, with dainty white
stalactites and stalagmites, almost
touching each other, midway between
floor and roof
He will find monsters, too, for the
head of an ant, seen through a mi
croscope, is terrible object, and he
can not help thinking what an awful
aspect such creature would present
If it were as big as horse. He has
heard about the creatures that are to
be found in water from a stagnant
pool; he will find them for himself
and show them to other boys, and all
his crowd will become interested and
bring things to look at and wonder
about, He may not develop into a
Darwin; but if he has any faculty of
observation at all, it will be sharpened
by what he sees, and he will learn
that there is more in nature than what
we discern on the surface.

The young lawyer had waited many

"Sixty-eight dollars and fifty cents"

registered on the film when developed,
just as the light reflected from an
object through the lens Of camera
registers the form of that object.
DR.. Baraduc had also many pictures
taken in the ordinary way by means
of the camera. In these various states
of emotion are shown. Sudden anger
appears as a sort Of whirling shower
of sparks and yapor A state of high
spiritual contemr lation produces a

onnoaas Women Judoes.

A writer IN one of the Eastern pa
pers says that 1t is mistake to think
that women judges could do better
work in the Juvenile courts. He is the
secretary of the Society for the Pre-
vention of Cruelty to Children in New
York and ought to be able to form an
opinion on the subject, and his con
clusion from facts, not theory" he
says, is that girls would rather take
man than a woman into their con-
fidence and female Judge in juve-
nile court would be as unsuccessful as
ornamental. Women in the construct.

BUILT INTO THE BIRDS NEST.
Appropriate Place for Lace Intended
for Coming Baby's Cap.

A young mother sat under an apple
tree while the blossoms fell about her
listening to the glad twittering OF a
couple of song sparrows who were
building their nest in the lilac bush
which grew beside the fence. She
was fashioning a tiny cap Of softest
lawn and lace, and smiling to herself
while she sewed, after the manner OF
her kind. She was wondering what
the little face would be like that would
look out from the dainty cap of rufiles
and frills. 1t was almost done except
for one little piece Of lace, which she
could not find to finish 1t. She had
to give up her search for it, though
she knew she had had it when she
put her work basket on the grass be-
side her and had gone into the house
to get some forgotten thing.
In the fullness of time her mother
heart was satisfied, for her child lay
in her arms and slept upon her breast
She carried the babe out and sat again
under the apple tree, now laden with
fruit. She glanced into the lilac bush
es where the birds had builded their
nest in the spring and found that the
birdlings had taken wing and it was
deserted, but cunningly woven into It
around the top was the lost bit of lace
for which when making the baby cap
she had searched so long in vain.

SOUE EERN
AGRICULTURE
The path Q .he Pasture.

The Path 10 the Pasture.
The narrow path we used to tread
Led straight away from the farm
yard gate,
And down the lane to the pasture lot,
Where for our coming the cows
would wait.
Between its borders of grass and
weeds
It bore the prints Of our restless
feet, N
That stepped SO blithe through the
early dews.
Or Jagged aiong in the pulsing heat.
Above our heads curved roof of blue.
Where oft we saw the ghost of the
moon
Go drifting by with the sun-tipped
clouds
That sailed away to the port of noon.
From nodding thistle and MULLEN
stalk
The meadow larks through the sum-
mer sang,
And from the st bile of harvest-fields
The bobwhite's call through the
stiffness rang.
o little path of long ago!
I've wandered far from your beaten
dust,
And stumbled oft in my journeys
wide,
And lost the key to my childish
trust:
But now and then in my waking
dreams
! stand once more by the pasture.
wall,
And hear again from the harvest-fields
The cheerful sound of the bob
whites call.
