Defines Ideal Family.

Rev. D. D. Vaughn, of the Hal
stead Street Institutional Church,
Chicago, who, by a series Of heart
to-heart questions with his congrega-
ton, has learned what the "ideal'
husband and wife should be, has now
discovered through the same sources
what constitutes an ideal family.
To his questions along this line which
he submitted he received more than
100 answers. Boiled down to opin-
ions of the majority, they are:
The wife has as much right to the
money as the husband.
Positively no credit must be con-
sidered.
Parents must never sacrifice them
selves to the point of indulgence.
Force children to be obedient, with
a hope of reward, and be free in ex-
pressing your love for them.
Children should never be lied to
in order to force them to be obedi-
ent; never burden the older children
with the younger ones.
The sisters should never be obliged
to give up school for the brothers.
Brothers and sisters should treat
each other alike, and favors at home
should not be governed according to
their sex.
Children have no right to be paid
for the work they do at home.-Phil-
adelphia Record.

Where Caesar Crossed Thames.

Where did julius Caesar cross the
Thames? This sounds like n of the
questions set by staid old examiners
in search of information they failed
to acquire in their youth. There are
perhaps as many places claiming to
be the site of the famous fording as
there were claiming to the birth
place of Homer. This week Brent
ford has stolen a march on other
places and has erected a monument
commemorating Caesars crossing OF
the Thames there! Most historians
and topographers agree in placing
the point of crossing at Halliford at
a point known as Convey ii. e., Cause
way) Stakes, and but little support Is
found for the Brentford theory. To
many people a monument is the most
convincing of evidence, and though
there is little tradition to support
the Brentford column, that column
will no doubt serve to strengthen the
tradition.-London Chronicle.

The Dor Detective,

Speed and accuracy stamped the
performance of the police dog which
Saturday night was turned loose on
the track of the negro who shot De-
tectives Gallagher and Steinle in Flat
bush.
The four-footed sleuth wasted no
time on theories. He did not go the
scene of the shooting and wait for
the shooter to come back. Over a
scent still warm he led the way to the
lumber yards, where the fugitive
skulked behind a pile of boards, and
got his man.

his membership. One wonders whai
might happen were dogs instead OF

Our Artificial Life.


Two women on an open car sailing
down Broadway hear Houston street
the other afternoon were discussing
the artifciality of life in New York.
The woman who had taken the mega
tive side of the argument had been
temporarily silenced, but she re-
turned to the attack when her eye
caught sight Of a big window box,
fifty feet long at least, that stretched
across the third story front of one Of
the great gray buildings that are
crowded all day long with thousands
of work people fashioning wearing
apparel and other exterior decora-
lions for humans. The box was filled
with the brilliant green and white OF
luxuriant daisies in full bloom. 1t
was restful to the eye-a veritable
ocular oasis in the drab, sign
sprinkled wall of Broadway.
"There!" exclaimed the woman
triumphantly. THE man who placed
that there is one above sordid money
making. He is a man who loves ma
ture and beauty. That proves my ar
gument that all here is not artificial
and a sham"

the other. do you see those big
signs above and below the window

Bear Went to Market.

Intense excitement was created in
Bellingham this afternoon when a
huge black bear, weighing 200
pounds, ran amuck in the heart OF
the city and finally made a raid on a
stand of the public market. The an
imal was first seen ambling along the
beach two blocks from Main street,
early this afternoon and scores OF
people rushed from stores to get a
glimpse of it. After hiding in a
clump of bushes on an embankment
for half an hour the bear made its
way to a barn and was underneath
the building when a woman went out
to collect eggs.
Seeing the animal within twenty
feet of her and rushing in her d1rec-
ton she dropped her apronful OF eggs
and, shrieking at the top of her voice.
rushed to safety. Venturesome youths
drove the animal away from the barn
and it ran into the bushes again.
An hour later it climbed the hill
and shambled up n OF the main
streets to the public market place.
When discovered by the market mas.
ter it was devouring a bunch of rad.
ishes. Frightened away, the animal
started down the street and was max.
ing a dash for a fleeing pedestrian
when it was shot by a hotel man with
a revolver. A second shot from a
Winchester caused its death. Nobody
has claimed the animal, and it Is not
known whether it is a tame bear or a
wild animal that wandered into the
city at night.-Tacoma Ledger.
