Whv He Was Sorry.

To impress on young children Just
what should and what should not be
done and why, is among the most try
Ing problems Of parents, as evidenced
by the recent experience Of a West
Philadelphia mother. Last Sunday
she asked her small son, aged 8. to
carry chair for her from the dining
room to the parlor. He started of
willingly, but in the hall he tripped
and fell. Amid the crash could be
heard the boy giving vent to utter
ances that would have done credit to
a pirate of ancient days. The mother
was taken by surprise and was greatly
shocked. She gave the boy a long
and serious talk on the subject Of pro-
family. This apparently did not make
the right impression, for when she
concluded the boy added to her dis
comfiture by exclaiming, II am sorry
I swore, mamma, but forgot it was

Senator Smoot of Utah tells story
on the late E. H. Hartman, which

that when the Salt Lake cutoff was

They had their pictures taken at

When the pictures were printed and

BONNIE A WISE BOG
INTUITION TELLS HER MAN
WANTED TO WASH HER.
Exciting Days Work Provided for
Man by Wife and Setter-After
the Bath Bonnie Seeks the
Ash Heap.

what are you going to do, tear?"
the lady asked The man was emerg-
ing from the bath room with a towel
and cake Of soap.
I'm going to wash the dog" said
the man sturdily. The lady peered at
him keenly.
Not with my soap!" she said. "The
rose soap!"
well, hang It, observed the man:
gimme some soap. This was all
there was in the bath room"
"And one of my best towels-a new
one!" cried the lady despairingly. The
man threw the towel and soap far
from him.
Heavens and earth!" he said; this
Is fuss over nothing, sure. Gimme
some soap and rag-a blanket-any
old thing that you can dry setter dog
with"
When these things had been
brought him-or to be exact, a piece
of worn yellow kitchen soap and a
torn skirt-the man went into the
back yard, calling merrily:
Here Bonnie! Here BONNET" But
Bonnie was wise Some underline
skin intuition told her that the man
desired to wash her, and she prudent
ly crawled under the house. This
made the man indignant.
Come out O. there!" he yelled
Then he crawled under and emerged
backward, grating his teeth and rub
bling his spine, like the teeth of a saw,
upon the floor beams In one hand
he held the elastic skin of the dogs
neck and the dog fought bitterly each
step of the way.
Once outside the man tied a rope
about the neck Of the dog and pro-
cured washtub 1t was the one the
washerwoman used on Mondays, but
was just as good as any for his pur-
poses.
He dragged Bonnie to this tub and
thrust her forefeet in it, while her
hind feet struggled frantically out
side. When he got the hind feet in
the forefeet were paving the dirt out
side desperately. But Bonnie was at
last wet and soaped. Then the man
stepped back to throw a bucket of
water over her; but Bonnie shook
herself briskly and in misery and a
shower bath of soapy water deluged
the man.
Blame the dog" he said, rubbing
his eyes with hands that smelled Of
yellow soap and had dog hairs on
them.
Then he blindly liberated the dog
and commanded her to roll upon the
grass.
But Bonnie, refreshed and joyous,
preferred the ash heap on which
stovepipe had been newly beaten.
do you mean to tell me-" said the
lady later. that you washed that
dog?"
Sure l did," said the man. growing
red; that's clean dirt. It'll shake
