Grandfather Bowes had been as.

ors, his meals were sent in to him in
another room. Grandfather made no
objection. Molly excused herself on
the ground Of Phillips welfare, and
told her friends that her father was in
poor health.
But after six months or 80 Molly
came to determination.
John" she said. Philip is learning
the most disgusting table manners
from father. He makes noise with
his soup and bites his bread instead of
breaking 1t and-well, John, father is

John Van Norden shrugged his
shoulders. Personally he did not an

father, but he realized that it was no
affair Of his, and. even If it we're, It
would do no good to make trouble
about it. So thenceforward grand.

CLIMATE AND THE CROUCH
Weather Conditions Have Much Effec,
In Shaping the Dispositions Of
Even the Best Tempered.

Climate has strong influence in
shaping the disposition. thoughts and
actions of men. Piercing cold and
high winds are not conducive to
peace of mind and calmness of tenn.
per. To many temperaments q windy
day means tangled and frazzled
nerves and an irritable mood. The
evidence Is plain that land endowed
with bright skies and balmy breezes
breeds sweet-tempered sons and
daughters. On one side there may be
irritability, keenness to get and to
keep. "nearness' in money matters
and conservative chilliness Of man.
ner. On the other side there may be
good temper, generosity, sociability,
federation and disposition to some
confidence in ones fellow.man, bred
by the goodly sunshine.
In the middle west they have been
driven to experiment with a new non.
Toxic crouch cure. Downcast and
downtrodden wives have been getting
excellent results from a few pinches
OF the remedy In husbands morning
conee. and many men are now capable
OF whistling on their way to work.
1t has even been noticed that men
stop and converse with acQuaintances
IN the street, and frequently a burst
of raucous laughter is heard, under
the stimulation Of the crouch cure.
A little later, when the elixir may
be spread upon buckwheat cakes, a
general era Of good-fellowship is
looked for. At present the people of
the middle west and the east are
probably doing IS we'll as the climate

crouch cure will show more marked
results in the boisterous climates than

PHILIP AND GRANDPA
Nv FRANK EIlSON.

| " TnNsNN UssSSNs
It was q great shock to the Van Nor
dens when Henry Bowes. Mrs. Val
Norden's father, announced by lette
that he had sold his farm and wal
coming to live with them in theil
house on Fifth avenue.
"Pshaw, Molly, we can stow the oil
gentleman away somehow" said Joh1
Van Norden. His recollections Of thu
days when he, city clerk on a vaca
ton, had courted Molly Bowes, hi
farmer hosts daughter. had Away
thrown a sympathetic light around thu
old man. Il guess he's pretty lonely
up there in Cohoes," he added. "l
shouldn't like to have to live all by
myself at eighty"
But he'll teach Philip such dreadful
manners" protested Molly. "Yor
know, child Of five picks up anything
and everything. First thing we know
the boy will be eating peas with his
knife and trying to chew tobacco"
We'll, what are we going to do
dear?" asked her husband.
II suppose we'll have to take him.
said Molly. But l shall make it per
fectly clear to him, the moment he ar
rives, that he is not going to display
himself before our friends and make
US ridiculous, after all the trouble
we've taken to get into the right set.
This was duly explained to Henry
Bowes-"Hank" Bowes among hi
cronies at the local store. The ole
man put his not too clean hand on hi
daughters shoulder and looked kindly
at her..
my DEAR" he said, II amt going t
disgrace you, don't fear it. It's you
want-you and John and Philip. In
going to make myself scarce wher
there's swell company around"
He had included Philip in his sum
mary. but Molly Van Norden was de
termined that he should have no op
portunity Of corrupting the boys man
ners. Nevertheless, with that curious
attachment which frequently exist,
between those Of the extreme ages o.
life, Philip and the old man sought
each others company continually
Philip learned to whittle whistles ou
Of twigs. to blow out the leaves Of {

cause l called you that when / courted
you"
John, please don't remind me OF
the vulgarities Of that dreadful town
in which was raised. The old man
is as l said, becoming childish, and he
uses that disrespectful term to me In
front Of the ervants. Only yesterday
l cav the butler put his hand in front
of his mouth to hide his amusement.
He forgets my position and his own,
John. Now, 1t is no use saying
word, because have spoken to Doctor
Smythe, and he has recommended
very nice place where father will be
well taken care Of"
How about Philip? Don't you sup
pose that they will miss each other?"
II hope they WILL" his wife retorted
II mean them to. John. He is no At
companion for a child"
Happily, neither the old man nor the
boy knew what preparations were
afoot. Henry Bowes remained as
much Of a nuisance as before. It was
not till the day before his departure
that the child learned from the serv.
ants that grandfather was going
away"
At that instant the first inkling OF
life's tragedy entered the little brain.
He crept away, into the walled garden
at the back of the house. Soon he was
busy again. His mother found him
there later. He had constructed a sort
of picket fence from some stakes left
in the tool shed by the gardener. In.
side this was packing case.
Molly Van Norden watched him, un-
observed. Then she hurried into the
house. Her husband had just come
home from his office.
John" said the fond mother, Il
want you to come and see what Philip
has done. He has built little enclo-
sure in the garden and he is playing
something. You know Mrs. Banner
man says 1t is the duty Of parents to
discover the bent Of their children's
minds. Now wonder what thoughts
are passing through his head"
They went out in amused eagerness.
They were half ashamed of the new in.
terest in the boy. He was standing
before the packing case, talking to
himself.
Whats this, old chap" asked John.
That's table," answered the boy.
Table? What do you want a table
for?' inquired his mother.
That's for father. when he's old,
SO that he won't let me see the way
he eats" said Philip.
An this is a cage like the one
gran'pa's to have" he continued,
pointing to the row of sticks. That's
SOS he won't make darned nuisance
Of himself when has comply"
Molly Van Norden looked at her
husband speechlessly. Then she
turned away end ran into the house.
John found her on the lounge a few
minutes later, sobbing Historically.
John, die you understand" she
moaned. What does It mean?"
Il guess 1t means your fathers
