H ! Feminine Craft Which Tie-
Maud! t Be llnmnred.
There Is a superstition that online
are untrustworthy. Tho canoe Is mere
ly the most girlishly feminine of nil
craft that flont on the waters, say the
Travel Magazine.
She demands the constant Assurance
Of understanding. Ileumor her prefer
ence In the little matters and you may
depend uion her In all things of Import.
Step exactly over the keel, not an
Inch to right or left; distribute the
weight ennntly, so that she may neither
bury her bows nor stand upon her
tern. Forbear to bump her too bru
tally upon rocks or to scrape her over
gravel, and you will find her as stcaV
as a barge, as eaworthy as n dory, fit
to enrry throngh fappy swells or down
riotous rnplil a weight that would
make the clumsier rowbont wallow like
a tub.
She will float you sensitively down
the moon-trenmloiis gloaming of some
still wood river, turning nt a touoh un
der the seclusion of overhanging leaves,
losing her way sympathetically along
hushed ona soday Inlets where the
black water laps end listens nnd thfi
breath und sense of summer thrill nb
the youth of you wide awake.

FOUND HIS PLACE AT LAST
"Take a phrenological examination
nnd learn what profession or calling in
life you arc best fitted for," was the In
junction painted on the show-case lit
the bottom of the stnlrwny, and the
young man who had been looking at it
and studying the "exhibits" .In the
show-case went up the stairs to the
second floor, where he found the
phrcuologist's ofliec.
"Is this where you examine people's
heads?" he asked.
"Yes, sir."
"Well, I wish you'd run your fingers
over mine, nnd tell me what I'm good
for," said the caller. "I haven't found
out yet."
The phrenologist made a thorough ex
amination of his hend, but seemed In
doubt.
"To bo perfectly frank with you, my
friend," he suid, "I can discover no
marked characteristics on which to
base any definite plan of life for you.
There Is no predominant development
In any one direction.
Here he paused a moment.
"Have you tried nny kind of occupa
tion?" he asked.
"Ych, sir. I've tried life Insurance,
sewing machines, real estate, bill col
lecting and book canvassing, and made
a failure of all of eni."
"What Is your name, may I nsk?"
"My name Is Sweet."
"Ah!" exclaimed the phrenologisH
"Young man, stort a enndy factory. My
word for It, your name nnd that busi
ness will make a winning combination."
The young man paid the fee nnd
went out, with n sarcastic smile on, hlu
face. But the curious part of tho story
Is that he took the advice nnd achiev
ed success.
"THE LIFE OF THE FARM."
That U What a Writer Call! the Lad
Who Doei tho "Chores."
Country boys- may realize their Im
portance by reading what Charles Dud
ley Warner says about them.
"It Is my Impression," says Mr. War
ner, "that a farm without a boy would
soon come to grief. What a boy does
Is the life of the farm. He is tho fac
totum, always in demand, and always
expected to do the thousand nnd one
things that nobody else will do. Upon
him fall the odds nnd ends, the most
difficult things. After everybody else
Is through, he Is to finish up. Ilia work
is like a woman's perpetually watting
on others. Everybody ki.tf.vs how much
easier It is to cook a good dinner than
to wash the dishes afterward.
"Consider what a boy on a farm is
required to do things that must be
done, or life would actually stop. It
Is understood, In the first place, that
he la to do the errands, to go to the
store, to the poRtoflico, nnd to cany all
norts of messages. If he had as many
legs as a centipede, they would tire be
fore night.
"lie Is the one who spreads the grass
as the men cut It; he stows It away In
the barn; he rides the horse to culti
vate the corn up and down the hot,
weary rows; he brings wood and water
and splits kindling; he gets up the
horse and turns out the horse.
Whether he Is In tho house or
out of the house, there Is al
ways something to do. Just before
school In the winter ho shovels paths;
and In the summer ho turns the grind
stone. He would gladly do all the
work If somebody else would do all the
chores, he thinks; and yet I doubt If
any boy ever amounted to anything In
tho world, or was of much use as a
man, who did not enjoy the advantages
of a llberol education In the way of
chores."
Appendicitis and lloraebitck lldlng.
The iiiiiii behind the desk In the ho
tels sees and hears many funny things
abmit guefits that would make good
reading, but it Is only occasionally that
lie finds time to tell them to his news
paper 'acquaintances. "See that nuin
over there," said a hotel clerk. "That'
John 11. IMttlson. a manufacturer of
Dayton, Ohio. A mini from the Buck
eye State told me a story about hiui the
other day. lie said .Mr. Pattlson no
tlceil hU clerks lacked ginger, and, pat
terning after President Roosevelt, he
lioiinht a number of horses and ordered
tin mii to get in the saddle aud shake
themselves. One of the clerks who had
never put his leg over a horse's back
got nervous prostration when bo heard
of the order, so ho consulted a physi
cian, wlio gave him a certificate that
ho was threatened with appendli-ltla
and that it would bo fatal for lilm to
ride horseback. The certlfleate was
presented to Mr. Pattlson. Now that
clerk Is sorry he presented It, for the
manufacturer ordered ilm to take a
month's rest. "Oo to the hospital and
have your appendix cut out and send It
to mo with the bill." Tho clerk had to
make good. New York Cor. Pittsburj
