Use OF Tact.

How much trouble mothers. young
and old, would save themselves by a
little continuous nursery diplomacy
in other words, tact. 1t is so much
better to secure voluntary discipline
than to multiply exacting rules.
4 reasonable being knows that neg
lect OF right-doing brings suffering to
somebody; and how much more use
ful it is to develop reason" in a
chiId's mind than sullen obedience!

leading, this. to the right view OF
things, which comes before obedience

with it.

Pretty Tradition of Moss Rose.

a German tradition gives the origin
of the moss rose as follows: Once
upon a time an angel, having a mis-
sion of love to suffering humanity
came down to earth. He was much
grieved at all the sin and misery he
saw, and all the evil things he heard.
Being tired, he sought place where
in to rest, but as it Jared with his
master, so it Jared with him, there
was no room for him, and no one
would give him shelter. At last he lay
down under the shade of a rose, and
slept till the rising sun awoke him
Before winging his flight heavenward
he addressed the rose and said, as it
had given him the shelter which man
denied, it should receive an enduring
token of his power and love, and so,
leaf by leaf, and twig by twig, the
soft green moss grew around the
stem, and there it is to this day, a
cradle in which the newborn rose
may lie, proof, as the angel said
of Gods power and love.-Boston

Homer and HumbUp,

I do not mind confessing that for a
long time past l have been very skep
teal about the classics. l was myself
trained as a classical scholar. II
seemed the only thing to do with me
l acquired such a singular facility in
handling Latin and Greek that
could take page of either of them
distinguish which it was by glancing
at it, ana, with the help Of a dictlon
airy and a compass, whip off a trans
lation of it in less than three hours.
But l never got any pleasure from
it. l lied about the pleasure Of it
At first, perhaps, 1 lied through van
ity. Any scholar will understand the
feeling. Later on lied through habit
later still because, after all, the elias
sizes were all that l had and SO
valued them. l have seen a deceived
dog thus value a pup with a broken
leg. and a pauper child nurse dead
doll with the sawdust out Of it

No Ideas Necessary.

Once upon a time there was a young
man who had urgent literary aspira-
tions, but nothing to say. In his ex-
tremity he went to the Sage and asked
him what to do about it.
Write, my son, write" advised the
Sage.
The young man followed this advice.
He wrote diligently, and 10. his
writing became very popular and
his name was famous throughout the
land.
How do >0u explain it," asked a
critic Of the Sage one day.
1T is very simple replied the Sage
''As the young man had no ideas,
there was nothing to distract him
from a strict attention to literary
style, which he developed to a point OF
pefection.
But what is literary style worth
without ideas?" queried the critic.
Everything to the populace; moth
ing to the philosopher" declared
the Sage. Moral: Vox populi vox pop,
uli.

HAD ADVERTISED THEIR DADS
Strange to Say, Fathers Were by No
Means Pleased With the Young
sters' Work.

Two youthful suburban aspirants
brothers and sisters had been donated
by the family physician, decided to en-
ter a little side line of business one
afternoon.
One Of the youths was the son of a
wellknown doctor while the other was
the son of prominent tailor.
The two lads were very chummy,
and this afternoon they decided to
launch upon a little advertising expe-
dition. A paint brush was the means
devised to accomplish the advertising
and the lettering was quickly but
plainly traced over any smooth sur
face of wood or stone encountered on
the way.
After Office hours in the evening the
doctor was having his customary chat
with his son and during the time he
asked: And what have you been do
ing today, William"

father.

facturer and he the son of a prosper
Gus merchant in that vast territory
known as ''out west" Correspondence
followed after both had reached their
respective homes, and early in the
summer the young man received an
invitation to visit papa's camp in

accepted, was met at the nearest rail

was carried, together with two huge
trunks, to the camp, IS miles away.
The trunks contained a carefully Sc
