FINANCES IN THE NURSERY
Real Wisdom in Making Children
Realize the Actual Value Of
Their Money.

II do not see why a parent should
not say to girl: Here Is so much
year: you have to pay your school
bills, your dress, your laundry, your
travelling expenses, and the cost OF
your games and your sweets out of
it," was the startling suggestion ad-
vanced by public speaker In lee
ture on Woman and Her Money"
given to large gathering OF women
recently In London.
In his capacity as a lawyer, the
speaker has seen much misery and
unhappiness for which extravagant
wives and daughters, reared in total
ignorance Of the value of money. have
been responsible, and in his opinion
many disasters could be avoided IL
women were more wisely educated In
the handling and investing of money.
The ideal father and mother give
their children an allowance" he went
on to say, even II 1t Is only penny
a week. This allowance should be
increased as time goes on, and girl
should gradually be allowed TOP pay
all her own bills and expenses"

The Duration Of Dreams.

Something regarding the duration
Of dreams can be gathered from his
experience of man who. on sitting
down for dental operation. took gas
and dreamed. He saw himself finish
his work. go to the club. leave for
the station. run for the train and miss
II. He returned to his club and re-
clined on settee in the library. There
he passed miserable, restless night
getting gradually colder and colder as
the fire died down. and with a pain
gradually growing about his head and
face from the hardness of his couch
Five o'clock In the morning came. and
the steward reused him to say that
the club must now be closed. The
sleeper got up feeling very stiff-to
find that the steward was his dentist,
and that the nights adventures had
lasted exactly AZ seconds.

along through the snow Miss Maltney
was a perfect battery of wit and hilar
ity. keeping everybody's spirits at top
notch.
mo wonder Crane took her for a
heroine model" thought Esther Chap
man. "She Is certainly splendid"
But suddenly, as swiftly as an echo
flies. every volley of laughter ceased.
In rounding a sharp curve, one of the
horses slipped and fell to its knees.
The driver, with tug, brought the
animal to Its feet again. But the jerk
had been too violent. and the man was
thrown headlong from his seat into a
snowbank by the road
The horses, frightened by the mis-
hap, and feeling no hand on the lines,
bolted and broke into run. In few
seconds they were going at breakneck
pace, the sleigh swinging from one
side Of the road to the other and be-
Ing almost overturned with every
lunge.
Miss Maltney. instead Of trying tc
gather up the relns, gave scream OF
terror as she clambered OF the high
seat, and dropped back into the body
Of the sleigh. -
Jump! Jump for your lives!" ste
cried.
But the warning came too late. The

The moment Miss Maltney sprang
from the drivers seat, Esther Chap
man, who had been In two or three
runaways and who knew horses as
she did people. leaped to her feet In
a fash she pulled herself up over
the back of the front seat and reached
for the lines that dangled across the
dashboard.
Hartigan saw what she was at
tempting to do and he followed her,
gaining the point Of vantage second
later. Already Esther had the lines
in hand. and as Hartigan planted his
feet against the front of the sleigh.
she thrust them between his fingers.
"Pull! Pull with all your might.

Hartigan threw himself back with
all his weight. but the speed Of the
horses did not diminish one hoof-clat-
ter. In another second Esther had
gripped her hands on his. but their
combined efforts didn't have any ef-
fest except to keep the pIunging
horses in the middle OF the road

BEGINNING OF THE IRON AGE
Excellent Reason for Believing Il
Originated In Central Europe
ltsj Use In China.

Tho iron age Is commonly believed
to have begun In Africa and Asia. The
latest Investigations prove that 1t was
not worked In Egypt until the ninth
century before the Christian era; or
in Libya until $50 B. c.; that the Sem
ties adopted its use still later. and
that 1t has been known In Uganda
only with the last five or six centur
les. In China iron is mentioned In
400 B. G. Bronze weapons were EN-.
ployed In China until 100 A. D.. and
In Japan until TOO A. d.
According to Mr.. Ridgeway, who
has investigated this subject. the
metallurgy of iron must have origin
ated In central Europe, especially In
Noricum, which approximately repre-
scented modern Austria and Batavia
Only at Hallstett and in Bosnia and
Pennsylvania, from which countries
the Achaians and Dorians are sup
posed to have migrated to Greece. are
found evidences of a gradual introduc'
ton Of iron, at first as an ornament
applied to the bronze, which 1t ulti
mately displaced. Everywhere else
iron was introduced suddenly, fact
which implies foreign origin.
Meteoric iron was known in Egypt
in remote antiquity, but not doubt 1,
was worked as fiints were worked, by
cutting or chipping, and was not
smelted. In other words, 1t was the
metallurgy, not the knowledge of iron,
that originated in central Europe.

Here are two persons sitting com

the two occupying the space of about
two persons and half. and then in
comes another passenger who stands
up In front of these two, holding on by

move along a little. away from each
other, making little space between,
enough to give the newcomer room to
sit down on the edge of the seat, max
ing not the most comfortable sitting
place in the world. but one better
than none.
The newcomer, he or she, as the

was going at q trot. In another hun

still Just in front Of slippery curve.
Hartigan. leaving the lines In Es-

The animals were trembling violently.
as horses often do after they have
run of with vehicle behind them.
He let them stand for few minutes
until some of the nervousness had
worn on Then, with the help Of the
other men In the sleigh he turned
them around.
At this moment the driver, painting
for breath and covered with snow,
came running up. He was overjoyed
at finding nobody killed or injured.
Esther and Hartigan were almost
overcome by expressions of admira-
ton for their presence Of mind and
quick action. But Hartigan knew
that their success In stopping the
horses was due to the girl. and he felt
a peculiar Joy in giving all the credit
