 It was late winter when Miss Bes- sic Hyde arrived at her aunt's country house for two weeks stay. but there was still plenty of snow on the ground Even before unpacking her trunk and hanging up her dresses the girl was out romping around Not that snow was a novelty to a girl from town. Even at that moment there were piles or II In front of her fathers house. waiting to be removed, and growing biacker every moment.
 But this snow was different. It was white snow. It wasn't mixed with soot. cinders. old shoes. tomato cans and beef bones. It was as clean as the spread on spare bed. It was good enough to eat. She threw snow balls at the dignified old family dog and gave him a bad opinion of her city manners, also of her skill as q thrower.
 On the second day of her stay Miss Bessie observed something. It was something that the man of all-work around the house had never observed yet. although he had been there five years. To the north of the house was n hill that was evidently on some one else's land. as there was a dividing fence. By taking down a panel of the zence a girl on a sled could start at the top of the hill. come whizzing down over Aunt Hetty's lawn. and then pass through an open gate and strike the highway. The road had a gradual descent for quarter of a mile. That was a slide down hill worth talking about If only there was sled of some sort about
 There was. It was a handsled used by the allwork man for various jobs. He was not about, and Miss Bessie took possession. Aunt Hetty wasn't looking, and panel of the fence was removed almost as neatly as a farmers 8 hired man could have done it.

shocked to see that the once lovely and charming young queen had turned into haggard and prematurely aged woman.
 The Dutch people saw the change with sorrow and sometimes with in dignation for they were disposed to attribute It partly to the misconduct of the prince consort.
 The loss of the queens good looks was without doubt almost entirely due to the repeated disappointment of her hopes of motherhood. The disappoint- ment was, in the first place. natural, such as any normal woman might have felt. This natural feeling was intensi- fled by patriotic sentiments.
 The queen realized that 1t was her duty to provide an heir to the throne In order to preserve the succession in her own family and to prevent compli- cations which ths whole Dutch nation dreaded. The queen at her accession was the last member of the ancient royal house of Orange e-Nassau who is really Dutch. There are other de scendants of the family through the female line, but they are all Germans or foreigners The Dutch have always been suspicious of German designs on their country. and apparently with good reason.
 Now. the nearest heirs to the throne after Queen Wilhelmina are not only German princes, but officers in the German army. It appears to the Dutch that one of these gentlemen. if placed on the throne of Holland. would be very serviceaSle in adding the coun. try to Germany

 It Is this sort of thing that pleases the Dutch
 The happy feeling among the people has had much to do with restoring her good looks and good spirits to Queen Wiihslmina. She is made happy not only by mother love but by the thought that she has done her duty to her country, the ancient home of liberty in Europe

J. P. M0RGAN's B0YH0OD.
Knowns as Pip" to His Mates at
School in Hartford.

From the Metropolitan Magazine.
Young J. p. Morgan spent the first four
teen years Of his life in Hartford. The
house in which he was born still stands.
II was a small and unpretentious building
of red brick which stood on the village
street in the center of a few acres of
land. Some years ago it was raised one
story and a store was set in under 1t,
and now 1t is being closely crowded by
business blocks in what Is the center OF
Hartford.
As a boy he was a quiet reticent per-
sonage; one who went about his own af-
fairs and who was marked neither by es-
pecai brlliancy nor especial dullness at
his studies.
He was cool. matter-of-fact. and stamp
ed with a determined quality and kind
of dignity which left lasting impression
upon the memory of some of his school
mates even IL 1t did not awe them very
much at the time. The first thing he
gained at school was a nickna/he-in this
way The roll of the class was being called
and one by one the boys stood up and
gave their names. 1t came Morgan's
turn.
John Pierport Morgan" he announced
He was asked to say II again because OF
his uncommon middle name. "Pierpont,'
he repeated. John Pierpont Morgan
The teacher got it correctly, but not the
other boys. They saw fun in that middle
name. "Pierp'-"Pip-Pip'' Morgan came
from the back of the room in a loud
whisper. ana Pip" Morgan he was called
and nothing else, from that day on.

Seeking the Teachers Throne.

From the New Bedford Standard.
After considerable evidence in the past
few years that the teaching profession
was not making the appeal to the young
men and women getting ready to go to
work that had been true of it in time
hut then lust gone by there is an appear
ance now that the tide has turned again
in favor of teaching. The Massachusetts
state commissioner OF education reports
that the attendance at the state normal
schools this year is from 20 to so per
cent larger than usual, and that in at
least two of the schools the demand for
admission has been SO much greater than
was anticipated that applicants have been
turned away through lack of accommoda-
tons and teachers to care for them
What has brought this about makes an
interesting subject of consideration When
the girls from the high schools began TO
turn to stenography and bookkeeping and
library work they said they could make
more money out of 1t than by teaching
That was true in some cases, though 1t
was still true that more teachers We're
getting good salaries than there were
highly paid stenographers. for instance.
Rut. to refer to that line o. work alone, it
was a day Of large demand and small
supply in a comparatively new line OF
work, and doubtless the rate of pay was
an ipducement to engage in 1t. Similarly,
the opportunities in some other lines Of
hitherto little known occupation seemed
promising. The aVallaoie teacnlng force
was decreased.
Then we began to get an application OF
the familiar workings of the law of sup
Div and demand. Teachers must be had,
and communities began bidding against
each other by the raising OF salaries. unit,

THE LAZY" CHILD.
No Such Thing; Little One Is Ill or
Poorly Nourished.


In many ways the world is growing less
cruel. For this we must largely thank the
scientific spirit which is daily recognizing
more and more of the affairs of life which
belong to its department. 1t is coming
into fashion not to kick the man who is
down, but to call committee to inquire
into why he is down and that leads natur-
ally to helping him up. This new method
is to be welcomed most of all as it bears
upon the destlnies of little children
The new scientific pedaSogicS 10 longer

bad, stupid and clever. On the contrary,
it takes close coSniZance of the. onderful
relation between mind and body. stomach
and brain and learns thereby that per-
sons, and above all children, are much
more naturally divided into the sick or
the well, the hungry or the fed, the weak
or the strong.

Sweet Cider.

From the Columbus Journal.
A man came to US the other day and
said, why don't you write an article on
sweet cider"' His eyes were full Of
sparkle and delight-he doubtless had just
been slipping at glass. The JUNCTION of
the orchards was still upon him And
speaking of orchards, there Is no glimpse
OF nature SO beautiful and inspiring as
broad area of apple trees. Respondent in
red, and green, and gold, for 1t lies as
snug up to ones conscience as apples of
gold in pictures Of silver.
But the cider. Look out on the beau

SONS, its birds accounting, its diamond
dewdrops, its sweet breath of the morn
ing, the reposeful soul of the grass, the
gentle southwind, the dreamy sunset the
flight of the butterfly, the song of the
milkmaid-they are all there, there in the
glass of sweet cider. and we half saw
them all breaking through the smile of
our friend when he said write something
about sweet cider
1t is not to be drunk down at a gulp,
but to be slipped and slipped and slipped,
all the time tasting the bits of sunbeam,
the incense of the blossom, the wine of
the dew, the carol of thes bird, and the
sweet dust raised by the fiuttering butter
