COULD FORGET HIS TIMlDlTY
Child Was Not Shocked Beyond Power
of Speech in Presence of Dread
Superintendent.

An eccentric city superintendent
was seated awkwardly at his Office
desk, his head poked forward from
his stopping shoulders, his elbows
doubled up, his back bent, and his
feet twisted round the side rounds OF
his chair, when two ladies entered,
bringing a six-year-old youngster for
admission to school.
THE dear child is so timid, Mr..

couldn't think Of sending him alone"
Yes, Mr., R." said the fond aunty.
THE boys have been telling him that
you whip little fellows, and he is so
timid-so shy and sensitive that"
She was interrupted by the timid
youngster, who had all this time been
attentively studying the superintend-
ent's doubled-up proportions.
Say, stand up, will you," he said.

where mornings and evenings bring
exhilarating breezes with snappy
chill in them, is the silk sweater-coat.
These smart garments are selling
freely at figures which rather take
ones breath away. Twenty-Five to
thirty dollars each seems high price
for a sweater of any sort. But there
is no difficulty In finding people who
are quite willing to pay 1t. Once let
fashionables, and their imitators, get
used to unusual prices and there is
not telling the length to which they
will go.
Besides the sweaters and sweater
