1t is a common occurrence for par
ents TO tell their children that if they
make ugly faces their faces will grow
that way, If they swallow the seeds OF
fruit little trees will grow in them,
and If the do not go to sleep the
'bogy man" will get them. 1t does
not take the child long to learn that
none of these things will happen, and
instead of enforcing discipline through
such means the parents put the chill
dren in a position where they will soon
openly defy authority If children
are not taught to respect authority
properly in the home, how are they
going to be taught TO respect it out
side?
These are serious things which par
ents should take into consideration
when tempted to practice deceit with
their children. If children are prop
erIy disciplined from the beginning
there will never be the necessity for
deceit. and It is on this question of
discipline that parents must make
their stand # they are going to do
their duty to their children.

HAUNTED HOUSE IN PORTLAND.
Furniture Dances Jig, Inanimatc
Things Have Life for Hours.

Portland. Ore, Oct. 29.--Influ-
enced by an apparently inexplicable
power, the contents Of house at 546
Marshall street in this city for four
hours yesterday afternoon between l
and s o'clock, were turned topsy tur-
wv from cellar to garret. Furniture
as well as other inanimate objects
moved as If things Of life.
These occurrences are vouched for
by hundreds of people who visited the
house and were witnesses Of the phe-
nomenon.
Energized by no visible power, six
foot extension table raised itself on
two legs and fell on its side; a sofa
moved from its place against the wall
and careened on it's side; clock on
shelf turned almost completely ar
ound and stopped at $3.50 p. M;
dishes on even surfaces stood on edge
and rolled to the floor: Morris chair
fell over; a half filled tea kettle and

Frozen Flowers.

The possibility of preserving the
freshness of flowers by refrigeration
was discovered some time ago, and has
been carried out with success The
flowers are plucked before they are
full grown and placed in the refriger-
ator during transport. When they are
taken out and put in water they re-
turn slowly to life and completely
open without having lost any of their
color or vitality. A curious fact is
that the natural development of the
flower. after being suspended by the
cold, proceeds at much slower rate,
so that the flowers remain fresh in
a room much longer than they would
have done under ordinary circum-
stances One advantage of the dis
covery is that some beautiful foreign
species may become more generally
known, such for instance as the beau
tiful iris, which grows profusely in
wild state in Southern Africa, and
the magnificent blooms which waste
their sweetness on the declivities of
the South American Andes.
