Impious Act Punished.

A gruesome story Of century ago
Is told Of an occurrence In ONE of the
vaults beneath Westminster abbey. A
member Of party of jewellers engaged,
on a wager, to enter the vaults at
midnight, and in proof Of his having
done so, to stick fork In coffin that
had recently been deposited there. He
accomplished his object and was re-
turn triumphantly, when he felt him
self suddenly caught. He was so over
come with terror that he fell In a
swoon and was so found shortly after
ward on the floor of the vault by his
companions, who, alarmed at his long
absence, had come to look for him.
The fork which he had stuck into the
coffin had caught hold Of his long cloak
and given him fit of terror that near
ly proved fatal.

TarantuIa Hawk Mans Friend.

Tarantulas prefer loose, stony
ground for their habitat. The foolish
creatures come out for stroll just
before the sunset hours, at the very
time when the tarantula hawk, or
killer, is out looking for them. The
vicious wasp is quite sure to find them
and, although the fight may be long
and the tarantula may make tena-
cious defense, the wasp's lance will
finally pierce and stupefy the taran-
tula, wh2se body will retain warmth
during the required number of days
required for the incubation of the
eggs which the wasp will deposit in
her victim. When the grubs Of the
baby tarantula hawks appear. the UNI
gracious little things will immediate
ly proceed to devour the warm husk
that gives them protection and life,
thus fulfilling their destiny and incl
dentally protecting the dwellers on
the border.

AORE THAN RULES NECESSARY
Telling Child Your Parental Precepts
Doesn't Help Him to Carry Out Sug-
gestions-He Should Be In
terested In Behavior.
BY sIpoNIE M. GUTENBERG.

TT is no wonder that mothers become
i bewildered. There are so many
things to keep in mind in order to do
the right thing by your children. There
are all the rules about bathing and
clothing and feeding the dears; there
are all the rules about toys and exer-
else and play, and there are all the
rules about punishment and manners
and keeping your temper. 1t is all
very distracting.
The trouble with many of us is that
we try so desperately to get the rules.
And the danger Is that we often get
no more than the rules. With all the
new ideas and suggestions crowding
upon us, the conscientious mothers
seek the earliest opportunity to apply
the new methods. But in too many
cases we remember the formulas and
repeat them as we think aloud about
new situation.
David" said one of these conscien-
tious but bewildered mothers, lit is
very important for you to acquire hab-
its of punctuality. SO do not linger
on the way to school," OF course, we
know what she meant and that she
meant well. But she was still too con-
scious of remote purpose in the
childs character to translate this pur-
pose into the most effective conduct.
So far as the child is concerned, he
needs merely to be impressed with the
Importance of coming to school on time
and not with the Importance of his
habits of punctuality." He needs
merely to be assisted in forming the
desired habits and not worried about
his moral salvation. When the moth
er's purpose has become thoroughly as
simulated her attention will be upon
the things to do and not upon the
things to say.
The problem for the mother thus be-
comes one of assimilating valuable
ideas until they become parts of her
habitual attitude, instead of being re-
membered rules or mechanical tricks.

she observed, 81 thought all little girls
learn to button in the Montessori."
Which advertised not only the fact
that she was in the Montessori class,
but also the further fact that her moth
er talked about the matter IN the pres
ence of the child. The child was no
doubt learning great many useful
things in this class. But in addition

she was learning-from her mother
a great many formulas about what chill
7lren should and should not be taught.
There is no use making the child
conscious of your purpose in the vari-
Gus problems of his development that
you have undertaken to solve. Nor
need he be instructed in the various
devices that you plan to use in his up
bringing. 1t is enough that you use
suggestion and good example, that you
moderate your voice to suit the occa-
sion and y.anifest indignation at the
right tine. But the child should be
concerned only with the results, not
the mechanism.
You encourage the children to play.
There are many good reasons why you
should. But you do not use any of
these reasons as part of the induce
ment. You do not say, for example,
"Girls, I wish you would go skating
this afternoon. The doctor said that
skating is very healthful exercise. Mar
garet especially needs to exercise her
large muscles more" Nor do you ex-
pect the children to justify their in
diligence In terms of an Interior moral
or physical benefit.

Mexican War NezcS

General Carranza, first chief of the
Mexican de facto government, has or
dered Eliseo Arredondo, Mexican am
bassador designate, TO withdraw from
the United States without delay. This
move, which has the aspect of a rup-
ture of such diplomatic relations as ex-
list between the Mexican de facto gov
eminent and the United States, Gre
ated CONSERVATION among administra-
ton officials at Washington who con-
fessed they are mystified by the unher-
aided action.
San Luis Potosi. Mex, is in the
hands Of Villas bandits. The entire
garrison was taken prisoner by Villa
after brief battle.
Hope was practically abandoned in
Washington that any working agree
ment can now be reached between the
American and Mexican commissions.
First Chief CarranZa's failure to ac-
cept promptly the protocol arranged by
the American-Mexican commission is
responsible for the present situation.
A machine gun was turned upon
Mexican snipers near Harris Mill, Tex,
by soldiers of the Third Kentucky in
fantry. Mexicans have been shooting
into the camp of the American guards
men nearly every night.
Villa troops defeated a large force
Of Carranzistas near San Pedro, In
Coalhuila, according to reports re-
ceived at Ell Paso, Tex, by the mill
tary authorities and by mining men.
Thirteen hundred Carranza soldiers
were captured in the battle. General
Santos, who was in command of the
Carranza troops, was killed.

asked the children beforehand they
could give you dozen good reasons
for taking part in plays and games,
and they would never think of Ham
let's reasons, or Rosalind's. And If you
put these thoughts into their heads
YOU are doing much to cultivate
morbid self-consciousness. But what is
exactly what many parents-and many
teachers, too, alas-do with their sub
stitution of good assortments of words
for opportunity and inspiration.
The excellent work in the organiza-
ton of boys and girls for wholesome
outdoor life and nature study Is vitiat-
ed to degree by the disregard of the
childs nature that shows itself in such
priggish notices as "One kind deed
each day" and "Be happy" Any boy
who would actually check off his days
adventures in search of the kind deed
would be an intolerable companion for
a person who still valued spontaneity.
"Training" through such precept is
just as likely to make the child rush
to the assistance of the blind man in
the morning in order to get the kind
deed out of the way, leaving the rest
of the day for the enjoyment of life.
We wish the children to be kind to
be happy, to be healthy, to be brave
and several other things. But the kind
ness and happiness and the other de-
