BLACK HONEYMOON.
) French Bride is Going to Put Lover
to A Real Test.

Calling marriage. "a tragedy for
which the mind must be adequately
Germaine de Ia Bodesslere,
the dashing Frech artist, has designed
a black apartment in which she and
her prospective husband will spend
their honeymoon before leaving for
the villa in the south of France, re-
lates a Paris de 'atch.
The nine rooms of the apartment
are covered with black; some with
black velvet, others with satin; 9TH
ers with linen or wall paper. Cur
tains and portiers are black, black
is the furniture, black the bed, the
sheets and black the tableware, while
the bath tub is a huge block of black
marble.
The brides trousseau is mass
of black chiffon and Chantllly lace.
Onyx is the only stone used in her
iewelry, while she has sent notes
written with white ink on black pa
per informing her friends that only
black clad persons will be received
during the trying" period.
Mile. de la Bookstores contention
is that if her husband is able to stand
the strain of a black honeymoon he
will face undauntedly the propects OF
a brilliant future.

SILENT CORKEY'' STILL SILENT.
Freedom Fails to Break Convict's
Vow Made Years Ago.

Silent Corkey'' Hanley, Massachu-
setts' famous convict, who, ten years
ago pledged himself never to speak
again, spent his first day free man,
after twenty-five years in Charlestown
state prison, still refuses to break
his silence, says a Boston dispatch of
last week.
Even though he experienced the
greatest thrill of his lifetime, he kept
his strange pledge. His first auto
mobile ride; his first sight of an elec-
trio car, and his reunion with his
family failed to bring from his lips
the expected articulate exclamations
of surprise and JOY.
He was visibly affected by the ap-
pearance of Boston as he rode through
the city to the state house in War
den Shattuck's automobile The
changes of twenty-five years brought
not a word from his lips-only a
strange gutteral sound and a compla-
cent smile.
Even at his sisters home, he con-
tinued his silence, although the mem
bers of his family begged him to
speak.
He answered his sister the same
way that he has answered the pris-
on officials many times since his vol
untary dumbness. He wrote On
pad of paper:
Il shall never speak again. My
tongue has got me into too much trou-
bic Already"
This was his first explanation given
for his silence. He wrote similar
reason for refusing to peak when jail
officers attempted to draw informa-
tion from him after he had been dis
covered making counterfeit half dol
lars in his cell. So far he has kept
good his unique silence.
For ten years 'Silent Corkey" has

means of pad and pencil. This was
the method he used today when he
was interviewed by reporters in the
prison Office few minutes before the
gates swung open making him a free
man. He asked about several news
paper men who "covered'' his trial 70
years ago, but seemed mostly inter-
ested about his museum"
His museum as he named it, is
his collection of trinkets, toys, and
cushion covers that he has made IN
his cell. For years he has whiled
away his hours carving miniature i'm
ages or making fobs and trinkets of !
silk and bead work. Many of these ar
ticles have been sold to visitors at the
Jail.
He values his museum" at S1O,-
900. He wrote that it would take 20
good strong reporters to carry the
stuff away.

SPRINGTIME AND

look the fact that 10 take child
from it's studies to work in the fields
does not net them so much in the
long run.
Between the age of seven and six
teen years, child is capable of abb
sorbing more OF his studies and with
less concentration than at any other
period in life, and during these par
ticular years the child should be kept
in school, at almost any cost. After
the school hours, he should not be
given so many little tasks as to tire
him before his home study period.
During the school term, not more
than two hours of chores should
be imposed on the child outside of
school hours.
During the vacation period, not all
the time of child should be spent
in work, because most every child,
as do many of We older folk, make
plans TO work out some definite plan
or plans, and to the child vacation
time is counted and looked forward
to as a time in which to try to make
a material thing of his dreams, and

significant occupations of the young
child do not appear to us as import
