A HILL OF VIOLETS.

One spring afternoon after scool a
few friends of mine were going out
violet hunting, and as l could not go
along | had to tell them where to
find the hill blue with violets.
| said to them, 'go two blocks south
of the school house. On the corner
where you should turn to your left and
go east, there is large, white house
with several big trees in the yard
Turn to the left and go two blocks,
when you will come TO the end of
the walk. Here is small, yellow
house. trimmed with red, on the other
side of the road. 1t has a railing OF
one board about three feet high
around it with posts at the corners.
You take the road here and go by
house that is set far back from the
road, with trees on both sides. Go
up a high hill east of this house and
down it then walk in level space I'M
til at the foot of the next hill you
crawl under the fence. There is an
old machine of some kind near the
fence so you will know where to get
through. Then go across two fields
and get into long grass, and you will
begin to see that the hill ahead of
you is blue. AS you draw nearer
there will be violets scattered around
and soon you will not be able to walk
without stepping on them.

DAGUERREOTYPE COMES BACK
Prints on Silver Are Again Coming
Into Fashion, Says
Photographer.

"People are Inclined TO smile at
grand fathers" said photographer
the other day, "but want to say that
the photograph of the present day Is
no improvement on 1t for artistic del
icacy, for beauty and for quality. In
subtlety of likeness, nothing ever has
years ago, and those who possess any
of them should treasure them as the
choicest heirlooms.
Most styles move in cycles, and 1t
is the same with photographs. Many
photographers are taking up the
daguerreotype again. In view OF the
advance in photography, it is now
possible to make daguerreotypes that
are permanent, for the originals were
wont to fade when exposed to light.
That's why they were always put in
covered cases.
There is at least one very good
reason for the daguerreotype being bet
ter, and that is that there is nothing
but the camera lens between the sub.
ject and the picture, and the only loss
is the reversal of the subject. An
other thing is that the highly polished
silver plate OF the daguerreotype
makes possible the greatest amount or
detail, and the softer shadings, much
of which is lost in photographs today
by the rough surface of the emulsion
on the negative, by the opaqueness OF
the glass in printing, and the uneven
ness of the paper"

MADE A THING OF THE PAST
Physical Culture in Schools Has Dono
Away With the OId-time
Shoulder Braces.

Some things OF common necessity
have been passing away without no.
tice Of their leave taking. Not infre-
Quently, few years ago, at the break
fast table, the mother of the family,
addressing the putative head of the
household, would say: John, I'm
really disturbed about Jane She's
growing right up. I've had to take
two tucks out of her dress" "Humph!
1 suppose girls must grow" Eyes,
John, but that's not what l mean to
call attention to. She stoops awfully
In spite of everything | say she won't
stand up straight. And there's Billy,
too He bends over like an old
woman. Those children need should
er braces. The sooner they have them
the better. 1t mustn't be put off an
other day."
In that yesterday every drug store
rad a supply Of shoulder braces.
They were advertised in the newspa-
pers in liberal space and there was an
active demand for them. Very little
is heard about shoulder braces today,
and boys and girls seem to be grow
ing up straight enough without such
appliances.
The reason for the passing of the
shoulder brace for children will be
recognized as soon as mentioned.
The lack of demand is almost wholly
due to the fact that more attention is
70 ,,l,r-CfnoI two TIT, i,
public schools than was the case a
few years ago. The girls are greatly
improved thereby. They walk better
and carry themselves better. AS for
the boys, they are encouraged to en-
gage in athletic exercises which tend
to better them physically and carry
out the old Roman saying Of "a sound
mind in sound body"
For the advance that has been made
praise is due to the gymnastic train
ing advocated by large German ele-
ment here for years before 1t was
given a tardy recognition. When the
girls get little older they will slip
into corsets, probably, but even then.
no matter how tight fitting, they have
been SO built up physically that they
will not be transformed into hour
glass patterns quite as readily as IL
their bodies had not been given pro-
per care when young. AS for the boys,
they will grow into lusty young man
hood, with bodies fitted to enjoy to
the utmost the keenest cutdoor sports
and athletic exercises.-Indianapo

Pots of Glass

A process has recently been invent
ed in France to produce glass flower
pots at very low cost. The pots are
like ordinary flower pots, both in size
and shape. They are said to be more
substantial and have proved to resist
the pressure Of ice or frozen earth
better. Being handsome in appear
ance, they are fine for ported sale
coverings that soon get soiled. When
sunk into the earth they remain clean.
as neither dirt nor moss adheres. The
inside walls beir g smooth, plants can
easily be slipped out, and they are.
therefore. excellent for potting plants
with many roots. The thickness Of
. the glass. with the consequent lack Of
porosity. is also said to be an advan-
tage, for the air remains sweet longer
in a glass pot than in an ordinary pot,
and there is less danger of drying out
While the initial cost Of glass pots Is
somewhat higher, they are really
cheaper In the end, because more
durable.
