When the tide is out at Palm
Beach hundreds of hotel guests walk
up and down the hard. wet sands.
Others speed up and down in their au-
tos. Others, still, sit on bred chairs
and gaze out seaward and imagine
they can hear the songs Of mer-
maids.
On certain day in the present
twentieth century Philip Gillett was
among those who walked. He was a
young man at the beach with his
mother and sister, and his occupation
when at home In New York was pre-
pairing himself for architecture. He
did that mostly by looking at one or
two skyscrapers day from the out
side and spending $500 per week al
lowed by his father. It was his IA
Their who had insisted that the young
man take up architecture. There
never had been an architect in the
Gillett family, and he wanted one.
He had manor house, and he wanted
hennery built, and he wanted to
point to 1t after it was finished and
say: "A Gillett did that"
On this particular day Philip Gillett
had toothache and he set out to walk
it off. His sister had told him to hold
a wad of cotton saturated with pep
permint essence in his mouth, and to
keep his mouth shut. He thought a
good deal of his sister, and he was
obeying her.
Toothache affects a person pecu-
INDEPENDENTLY a man. It gives
him what is known as a crouch. He
wants to stand on the beach and see
dentist drown in the sea. He isn't
to blame, but everybody else is. And
what made young Mr.. Gillett crosser
still was the fact that he had to chew
cotton and keep his mouth shut 1t
was not dignified. It was taking IN
due advantage of a fellow.
Among those who motored that day
were Miss Edna Blair and Miss Kitty
Waldron, girl chums. They were in

Miss Kitty's auto, and she was run
ming it herself. After getting out of
the crowd, and heading up the shore,
they saw a young man half mile
ahead Of them. He was scufing along
on the hard track and was in their
path. The honk! honk! was sounded,
but he paid no attention. He wanted
to be run over and have that aching
tooth smashed out.
The autmobile passed him within
two feet and in spite of himself he
gave a jump and swallowed the pep
permint soaked wad Of cotton. He
then had to produce more cotton and
more peppermint for his aching tooth.
Mr.. Gillett's walk had extended two
miles when he sat down on a hum
mock and resorted to more pepper
mint. His sister was right; it began
to have a soothing effect! He began
to feel glad that he was alive and
York city. Just then he caught sight
Of the auto returning. AS it drew
near, he saw that Miss Edna Blair
was passably good looking and that
Miss Kitty Waldron was more so. The
auto was aiming to pass him within
few feet, R2t that vas 81 right: HEee
reasoned that the girls desired near
er view Of the young man, whom they
had SO frightened, and he was right
aS5ut II. They didn't seem to see
him, of course, but that was false
pretense. y ~
And after that fate stepped In. The
auto was exactly opposite Philip to
an inch, and exactly six feet and one
inch and half away, when front
tire exploded with a bang. Two
young ladies screamed. The auto ran
wild until half buried in the sand.
The young man was blown over on
his back by the conclusion and swal-
lowed his wad of cotton for the sec
ond time in an hour.
He would have been less than hui
man If he hadn't arisen with a face
as red as paint and cross all the way
Though. He grabbed for his hat and
might have gone running over the
sand dunes had not sweet and plain
tive voice reached his ears:
"Oh, sir, please do help US! We
have bursted tire!"
Yes, he would help. As gentle
man he must do SO; but he made up
his mind to do no more. That is, he
wouldn't speak word to those girls.
They had fed him on cotton, so to
speak, and he would have his revenge.

A Spanking Chair.

Although the whipping post is a
thing of the past, the principle in re.
vised and modern form and judicious-
ly applied is expected to work Won
ders in enforcing good behavior upon
some Of the worst offenders brought
before the Juvenile court.
A spanking chair" has been set up
in the basement of the juvenile home
at Columbus, O., and Elisha Searls
was the first to occupy it. He prom.
ised to be good for all time when he
had been given good dressing" and
he was instructed to relate his expert
ence to other lads who have an incli-
nation to be very, very naughty.
The juvenile court paddle consists
of a long leather strap, wide and
heavy, and it is bound with felt so
that the edges will not cut or bruise
the flesh. The paddle "stings right"
but leaves no marks, and is much
more humane than switch or a slip.
