"cLosE OF A PERFECT DAY.
Just a Few Words In Appreciation Of .
Picnic That Is Altogether
Enjoyable.

i am partial 10 picnics-the spread
a stream-although / am not avid for
sandwiches unless hunger press me.
Rather, let there be a skillet In the
company and let fire be started. Nor
need picnic consume the day. In
summer IL requires but the late after
noon, with such borrowing Of the night
as is necessary for the journey home.
You leave the street car. clanking with
your bundles like an itinerant tinman.
You follow n stream, which on these
lower stretches, II is sad to say, Is al
ready infected with the vices of the
city. Like many countryman who
has come 10 town, IL has fallen TO dis
sipation. II shows the marks OF the
bottle. Further up, its course is clear
or. You cross II In the mud. Was II
not Christian who fell into the bog be-
cause OF the burden on his back? Then
you climb villainously long hill and
pop out upon an open platform above
the city.
The height commands a prospect 10
the west. Below is the smoke OF n thou
sand suppers. Up from the city there
comes the hum of life, now somewhat
fallen with the traffic of the day-as
though nature already practiced the
tune for sending later her creatures Oft
to sleep. You light fire. The baskets
disgorge their secrets. Ants and other
leyiathans think evidently that a cir
Gus has come or. that bears are in the
town. The chops and bacon achieve
their appointed destiny. You throw the
last bone across your shoulder. 1t slips
and rattIes to the river. The sun sets.
Night like an ancient dame puts ON
her jewels.-Charles S. Brooks, in Yale
Review.

TEACH CHILDREN RIGHT WAY
Education That Teaches Them Merely
TO Avoid Wrong Cannot Be
Called Sufficient.

The average man is naturally pessi-
mlstic. or inclined that way, and Is
apt 10 spend more time and effort find
ing fault with things as they are. and
trying 10 tear them down, than to cor
recting them, or substituting better
things.
This comes from, or is largely due
10, the prevailing habit OF teaching
children and young people TO avoid do
ing wrong rather than teaching them
10 do right. In this way they become
so impressed with the immensely of
wrong and the littleness OF right that
they grow up with feeling that wrong
has gotten the better of right.
The natural conclusion must then be
that we are going to the everlasting
bow-wows, and the very best we can
do is to put the brakes on and go as
slowly as possible.
And yet every one OF us ought TO
know and should realize, that the way
TO get rid OF wrong is 20 substitute
right, for wrong disappears before
right MS darkness before light, or cold
before heat
Where wrong Is, right is not; and
where right Is. wrong cannot come.
Right can never become wrong, no
more than love can become hate

zette-Times.

of two cylinders, one containing MI

Bethlehem's Bid on Shells
for the United States Navy

To Uie American People.
The Secretary OF the Navy has awarded
contracts amounting To over $3,0OO,OOO
10 British bidder for Ia and l6-inch
proiectiles for the Navy because tof very
much lower prices Offered BY the English
bidders.
Weknow nothing Of the basis upon which
the British bids were made, but the pub
lie il entitled 10 know the facts upon
which we ourselves bid for this work.
Two years ago we took contracts
60 make 1900 l4-inch shells at a
price of l,5l5,OO0. Up TO now
not n single shell has been nc
cepted by the Government, al
though We have expended, in
wages, materials, ETC., on these
orders $50, 1891, and We have not
received a SINGLE DOLLAR on
these contracts.
In addition. = literal Interpretation Of
the contract might make ua liable for
penalties amounting TO to7s.olo.
In the light OF our experience, and hav-
ing no other basis, we bid for l6-inch
shells approximately the same rate per
pound as that which the Navy Depart
Inent actually awarded a l4-inch shell
contract one year ago.

Fall of the BastiIIe,

The famous French prison known as
the Bastille was originally the Castle of
Paris and was built by order of Charles
V. between 1870 and 1883 as defense
against the English. When it came to
be used as a state prison it was pro-
vided with vast bulwarks and bitches.
The Bastille had four towers, Of five
stories each. ON each of its larger sides,
and it was partly in these towers and
partly in underground cellars that the
prisons were situated. 1t was capable
Of containing from seventy to eighty
persons. a number frequently reached
during the reigns of Louis XIV. and
Louis Nv. the majority Of them being
persons of the highest rank. The Bas-
tile was destroyed by the mob on July
15, 1889. and the governor and a num-
ber of his officers were killed. On its
site now stands the column of July,
erected in memory of the patriots Of
1889 and 1880.

a great many buggies still are sold,
It being suspected that for general
courting purposes they are vastly SUI

wits were wont to gather and discuss

town the livery stable Office was real

who came to engage a rig were al
ways willing to discuss the affairs of
the outside world; the farmers who
left their horses to be fed while in
town were as likely as not to.loaf about
the barn while their wives did the shop
