To Keep Young.

The great enemy of youthfulness Is
the drying-up process, and this is why
we should not only keep as much as
possible with the young, but should
enter into their joys, their plays, with
Eest and enthusiasm. We should romp
and play with them, interest ourselves
in the things that delight them, in
stead Of pushing children away from
us and restraining them all the time,
regarding them as a nuisance and a
bore. Children were given us to keep
Us youthful, to keep u sympathies
fresh.

A very curious nest Is made by the

ture. To escape snakes and monkeys
this bird takes a dead leaf. flies up
into a tree, and with a fiber for a
thread and its bill for a needle sews
the leaf to a green one hanging from
the tree. The sides are sewn up, an
opening to the nest thus formed being
left at the top. The leaf, apparently
hanging from a twtg, would neve be
taken for a nest. p.

Here is a queer cause for a law ac-

mined to throw himself out Of the win
dow Of an asylum. He made several
attempts and was prevented by the
servants. Put in a new apartment,
he tried again, jumped out Of the win
dow, fell on the lawn and injured him
self seriously, but, strange to say, the
shock cured his mental disorder. At
once he sued the officers Of the asylum
for negligence. The plaintiff was non.
suited.

One of the best-known pens In the

refused to sell It for $3.50. Its value
arises from the fact that, aside from
having been used by both Lincoln and

in which young George Washington
kept parts of his surveying instru-

the lid of a desk that belonged to the

origin of the "unlucky thirteen" super.

The 18TH was certainly a most unfor.

story was so popular In the middle
ages that It may really have given
rise to the superstition.
