The poor man does not have to work

wonder whether people are double-faced

level. He does not have to be waited on,
He can dress himself. He does not have
to be particular about his food. He Is
1ast naturally hungry, and he eats not

the cares of the world drop from his

Repentino at Leisure,

Agnes was a little tot of five. with
curly. f1axen hair, china-like complex
ion-and a will of her own. She had
been ill advised. not to say deliberately
naughty, at the dinner table. and
mamma had dismissed her to her bed
room. to remain in durance vile till she
should express due contrition for her
behavior. Agnes cheerfully obeyed
the parental order and showed no spirit
of repentance at the END of the first
quarter of an hour. When thirty min
utes had elapsed mamma called from
an adjoining room:
Agnes. dearie, aren't you sorry?"
There was no reply from the dark
ness beyond.
Ten minutes later the question was
repeated. Back came the reply in the
patient dignity and childish treble of
five summers:
Mamma. please don't ask me any
more. I'll come and let you know when
I'm sorry"

FREEZING WATER.
How the Growth of Ice Crystals May
Be Made Plainly Visible.

Be NJ ade PLAINLY visible
It Is lot commonly known that fresh
water may sometimes be colder than
ice" and that the growth OF ice crys-
tails may be made plainly visible. An
interesting experiment to show this
may easily be made
Fill a clean pint bottle with distilled
water. Make a hole in the stopper
large enough to let q thermometer
pass through it. The kind OF Their
mometer used in physical laboratories
is most convenient Insert the stopper
in the bottle and let the thermometer
reach nearly to the bottom. Pack
snow or ice and salt round the bottle
as you would pack an ice cream
freezer If the bottle Is not Jared
the temperature may be seen to drop
several degrees below the freezing
point without freezing the water
If the stopper and thermometer are
now removed and a small piece of Ice
free from any trace Of salt is inserted
in the bottle and pushed down into
the water, crystals Of ice may be seen
to shoot out in all directions from it.
After this experiment has been made
1t will be interesting to observe the
much slower growth Of ice crystals in
the quiet pools Of clear water that you
sometimes see in spring and fall. and
you will have some understandin Of
the network of ice Orders which is
beneath the ice coating of small ponds.
