A Doubtful Honor That Was Rejected
hv q prIiSh Girl

A Doubtful Honor That Was Rejected
by Polish Girl
In Russia royalty Is so revered that
to the loyal subject 1t seems great
honor to follow the czar. The govern
ment is eminently patriarchal-ip the
ory. at least--and the emperor must
supervise as well as patronize the
schools At the Easter festival the pu-
pills are treated with especial favor
Young girls of the upper classes of the
Imperial Girls school are driven in
long procession through the streets In
the imperial carriages The pleasure
for them is only that of being allowed
to take a drive In a stylish court car
riage. with coachman and footman In
the imperial livery. There is nothing
special to be seen. 1Nsa
The theory of this is that the czar
stands In a sort of higher parental re-
1ation to all these children. When he
once a year visits one of these schools
to which only the children of the
nobility are admitted-it is a custom
that as a sign Of his favor he drops
his pocket handkerchief. and the girls
all scramble for 1t, tearing 1t in pieces,
so that each one can get fragment.
He takes the most brilliant girl to
the table and tastes of the food of the
institution 1t is valued as the highest
distinction when he gives one of the
girls bis plate with what is left upon
it. 1t Is the custom and usage for, her
to eat 1t with delight shown in all her
features. Great was the astonisbment
of Alexander III. when young girl. a
Pole, whom the czar had taken to the
table as being the most distinguished
scholar of the institute and to whom
he had passed what was left Of his
meat and potatoes, nodded to servant
and calmly gave him the czar's plate
to take away.

Who Was Touched2

The two players who know the Sc
cret remain in the room long enough
for the trick to be made sure.
One stands In a corner, and the other
in the middle of the room calls out,
"Ebenezer, do you hear?" Ebenezer
says nothing. but listens attentively to
hear who among the company speaks
first. The other partner repeats the
question, and still no answer. Some
one will be likely to make a remark
soon. and then Ebenezer will rouse up
and answer, "Yes, l hear" "Then
leave the room," says the other play
er, and Ebenezer goes out. The part
ner then makes great show of choos-
ing which one he shall touch, but Of
course ends by touching the person
who first spoke after the game began.
This done, Ebenezer is called in to say
who was touched. and every one is
puzzled to know how he can tell.

The use Of soothing sirups" is much
more general than is supposed. Ig-
norant mothers are the worst offend
ers, especially those who must go out
to work and who resort to these dead
ening drugs to quiet the children dur
ing their long absences. While it is
pitiful enough to hear the walls Of q
neglected child, 1t is even more pitiful
ITO see the stupefied child sleeping off
drug debauch provided by its own
mother
The children of the rich often suffer
through the practices Of their nurses,
who wish to secure exemption from
their care and so put them into an
unnatural sleep. Once found out, in
stant discharge should follow without
a recommendation.
No offense can be more contemplate
in the eyes Of the law or Of society
than making drug inebriates of little
children. 1t is simply a process Of
slow poisoning, which at the same
time establishes habit, affects the
mentality and Injuries the baby. A
child brought up on soothing sirups"
is dull and lethargic. Many a mother
who complains her child doesn't "get
on" in school is herself responsible in
that she fed him on these compounds
to keep him quiet while she worked,
dear bought freedom. Under the food
and drug act the United States courts
are making it evident that a label ac-
curately stating the contents Of a
"medicine' does not imply liberty to
advertise 1t as not injurious and rec
ommend it as remedy for ills it cannot
cure. A man recently was fined $100
for selling a "toothing sirup" contain
ing morphine and chloroform, though
the label indicated these drugs and the
amount. DR. Wiley declared the stuff
misabeled because the label declared
no bad effects would follow its use
and that 1t was "a sure remedy for all
ailments incident to babies from one
day old to two or three years." The
federal court sustained the chemist,
and the proprietor will have to take
his "sure cure" off the market or con-
tinue to pay fines.
1t will not hurt the baby half as
much to cry as it will to dose it with
soothing sirups." Crying is lung ex-
ercise. Opium is deadeuing and dead
ly.

Mothers Value.

This happened years ago, but 1t Is
worth repeating. In a certain home
was the overindulgent mother of three
daughters. You can just imagine what
the weeks washing was with dresses
for all of those girls, each with three
or four petticoats, besides many other
articles. This mother did the washing,
ironing. cooking, baking and about
everything imaginable, and the daugh-
ters- well. they were cultured and
did not do very much Of anything ex-
cept eat the good meals and wear the
clean clothes. One day the father
called the mother aside. The two had
long talk, and he admitted he was
not able to hire a domestic. The next
day the usual complaint was made by
the girls about the poor dinner, and the
mother quietly got up, went to her
room, dressed and came downstairs.
She carried heavy suit case and
stopped long enough to tell the chill
dren that she hoped they would have
better meal the next day. Their
father took her to the station, and she
was away from home one month.
Every one Of those girls learned to
cook, bake, scrub and look after the
house, although they admitted that for
a week they lived on bakers bread,
lemonade, ounce preserves and either
salmon or sardines. 1t was hard les
son for them to learn, but they knew
the value of their mother.

Celebrated Men Who Married Their
Domestic Servants.

Celebrated Men Who Married Their
Domestic Servants.
Many celebrated men have married
their domestic servants. Sir Henry
Parkes, premier of New South Wales,
Is an example. One night when dining
at friends house he was struck by
the appearance of servant girl who
waited upon the table and persuaded
his host to allow her to enter his en-
poy. This she did and for short
time held the position Of cook in Sir
Henry's household. Then he made her
Lady parkes.
But more illustrious than this Is the
case Of Peter the Great. One day he
was dining at the house Of Prince Men
shikoT. He noticed one of the servant
maids particularly, and, though she
was not handsome, she caught his fan
cy. Her name, the prince told the
czar, was Martha. She had been
servant in the house of q Lutheran
minister Of Marienburg. and when that
city was captured by the troops of
Russia she had been taken prisoner
by General Bauer, who had passed
her over to the prince, whose servant
she was. The count politely made a
present Of her to the czar, who even.
tually married her.
William Cobbett, the great writer,
when he was only twenty-one years of
age one morning chanced to see a bux
ON servant girl busily engaged IN
washing the family linen. The gir
was pretty, so Cobbett spoke to her
learned her name and the same even
ing called upon her parents and said
he would like to marry their daughter
The parents of the girl informed the
young man that they had no objec
tions to him as their son-in-law, but
that he would have to wait until their
daughter was Of marriageable age
Five years later Cobbett, true to his
early love, married her.

A WEIRD INCIDENT.
ChoPin's Funeral March Was Inspired
by a Skeleton.

Late one summers afternoon, said
Ziem, Chopin and sat talking in my
studio. In one corner of the room
stood piano and In another the COM
plete skeleton of man with a large
white cloth thrown, gbostlike, about it.
i noticed that now and again Chopins
gaze would wander, and from my
knowledge Of the man knew that his
thoughts were far away from me and
his surroundings. More than that, |
knew that he was composing.
Presently he rose from his seat with
out word, walked over to the skele-
ton and removed the cloth. He then
carried it to the piano and, seating
himself took the hideous object upon
his knees-a strange picture of life and
death.
Then, drawing the white cloth round
himself and the skeleton, he laid the
latter's fingers over his own and began
to play. There was no hesitation in
the slow, measured flow of sound
which he and the skeleton coniured
up. As the music sweled in a louder
strain | closed my eyes, for there was
something weird In that picture of
man and skeleton seated at the piano,
with the shadows Of evening deepen
ing around them and the ever swelling
and ever softening music filing the air
with mystery. And knew was lis
tening to composition which would
live forever.
The music ceased, and when I looked
up the piano chair was empty, and on
the floor lay Chopin's unconscious
form, and beside him, smashed all to
pieces, was the skeleton priced so
much. The great composer had swoon-
ed, but his march was found,

Pastures of Children.

In recent lecture to mothers and
teachers on incorrect postures of chill
dren the speaker spoke Of inturning
feet and the means of correcting them.
But turned toes and feet, she said, are
the result of training, and If the moth
er finds tendency on the part Of her
child to turn the toes in she must re-
sort to training to remedy it. This
consists in developing the outer mus
cles by proper exercise.
OF the physical training of the child
from birth the lecturer said that, ex-
cessive crying being accepted as harm
full. the average mother therefore as
sumes that all crying is harmful and
should be suppressed. This is faulty
reasoning. The natural crying OF a
baby is really means of develop
ment, as by crying the lungs are ex-
panded and the relations between cir
culation and respiration are thus es-
tablished and strengthened.
