TRAINING THE FEEBLE STEPS.
Cent School Was q Worthy Ancestor
Of the kindergarten.

A cent school is so called because
the children who come to it bring
each one cent. clutched tightly in q
little hand. or knotted in the corner
OF . handkerchief, daily offering. II
the cent is forgotten, or lost on the
way. the child goes home for another,
that is all, and has scolding for care
lessness into the bargain. The littlest
children go to it-used to 60, rather.
for indeed this should all be in the
past tense rather than the present.
the cent school being a thing of the
past and, as one might say, a great
aunt of the present kindergarten, an
old woman from the country, who is
rather plain in her ways. Eunice
Swain would have thought a kinder
garten foolishness. Her children did
not como to school to be amused, but
to work. She put them on benches in
her big kitchen, because it was warm
there. and sat in the dining room door
and taught them, or chastised them,
AZ the spirit babe her. She taught the
three Rs, and manners, and truth tell
ing, and, above all, humility, impress
ing on these infants daily that they
belonged to a generation, not of vi
pers exactly, but of weaklings.-L H.

as much warmth as could be expected
from a man whose Interest is in tumb-
lers and pointers.

with dignity. why, that fellow knows
everything you say to him, in Ger

Plenty Good ENOUGH.

Aunt Chloe was burdened with the
support Of worthless husband, who

A Question Of Courtesy.


When President Roosevelt and his
party were hunting In the jungles of
Louisiana they had with them as chief
cook and bottle washer q native darby
named Sam, whose politeness was
only exceeded by his protested fear
lessness In the face of danger.
After a camp had been opened Sam
was sent out to recOnnoiter in the vi
cinity and report prospects for game.
Soon after he had disappeared .un-
earthly yells were heard and he was
seen leaping and bounding through the
thicket in a desperate effort to over
come time and distance in reaching
camp. On his arrival. hatless and
breathless, he almost fell into the
arms of the chief guard. who ex-
claimed:
why, Sam. what's the matter?
What scared you SOL"
Il isn't skeered, massa," stammered
Sam, as he gasped for breath and
rolled his eyes in the direction from
which he came; Il jis come back to ak

FORM WITHOUT THE SUBSTANCE
Somewhat Mean Comparison Made by

The proprietor of certain hotel In
Maine is not only one of the kindest
and best hearted men, but also one OF
the most profane. He swears without
knowing it and means no Offense. He
spends but little time in the Office and
is practically unknown to many of the
guests. One day. however, he was in
conversation with the manager when
a lady interrupted them.
Il want my room changed" she said.
1T is on the side overlooking the
kitchen, and I am annoyed by the
swearing Of some man down there
every morning. I am a church wom-
and and will not stand it another day"
The remarks were addressed to the
manager. for she did not know the
proprietor or that the one who did
the swearing was he.
DO you happen to know who that
man is?" he asked, before the man.

"No, / do not" she answered.

As TO ORIGIN OF THE SPOON.
Shells Probably First Used for Pur-
pose in Prehistoric Times.

The suggestion is offered by q cor
respondent that the domestic spoon
probably owes its origin to the shell.
Shells of the mussel, scallop, and oy-
ster, it is believed, were used in pre-
historic times as spoons and ladies'.
the handle being formed of q piece
Of wood split at one end to hold the
shell firmly. Some savage nations
make similar spoons up to the present
day, and the old Highland custom of
offering whisky in q shell has been
probably handed down from genera
ton to generation for untold ages.
Westman in his History of the
Spoon" gives Roman specimens, which
are very simple In design-something
like silver caddy spoons-and are
much shorter in the handle than those
from Egypt. Those for common use
we're generally made Of bronze, iron
or brass. They clearly show how the
shell shape was retained, and their
marine origin is also preserved in the
name Of a spoon-cochleare- derived
from cochlea, shell or cookie. The
Celtic spoon also closely resembled
the shell in form, though made Of
bronze The horns of various animals.
such as the OK, bison and ram. were
often used as drinking cups, and as
the material was found suitable, it
was sometimes used with wood, ivory,
metal, etc., for spoon making. Hence
the ancient expression: ITO spoil .
horn to make q spoon"

LESSON FOR THE WHOLE RACE
Harmony That Might Be II Each
Would e:e Do His Part.

There Is no prettier sight in the
world than a column of choir boys
entering a church and singing the
professional as they slowly march to
the altar, declares a writer in the Co
lumbus Journal. There is youth in its
sweetest aspect-bright-faced boys In
all their health and hope, engaged in q
beautiful religious ceremony, stepping
in harmony to the fairest ideals Of
worship. But it is more than a mere
ceremony. 1t has a lesson for ala
lesson of the happiest import. See
that little boy in the procession
capped in white. the sunrise on his
brow. and singing out of his heart .
noble melody. He is only a part of .
great harmony. and modestly he does
his part. content to be simply one to
blend his voice in the sweet strain Of
worship.
The lesson touches closely human
experience. Here We are. a great
crowd gathered on the earth, each one
engaged in some service, to his coun-
try, to humanity. to home. to business.
or perhaps some poorer one-how like
that little boy in the professional
might it be, If every one would add q
beautiful note to the harmony of life
and lose himself in the procession
marching toward the affairs Of the
common good.
