TRIVIAL YET POTENT
The Tyranny of the Small and the
HelpIeiMineMM of Mankind
The tyranny of littleness Is the
cruel despotism not of one master but
of a multitude of small ones Witness
the ironclad sway which any sovereign
ruler of the kitchen may wield over a
helpless household What happiness or
misery is bestowed lightly by one who
turns a toaster or brews a pot of cof
fee
We are all slaves to milliners and
tailors The milkman holds us helpless
In his clutches The chore man orders
us about The maid of nil work beck
ons and we follow We bow and
scrape before the haughty plumber
We who would strike down mon
nrchs and measure swords with min
isters of finance what sorry figures
we cut in the community if slighted by
the laundrymen We scarce can hold
our own against a surly railway por
ter and it is but by the courtesy of
Master Boots that we emerge from
our hotel apartment And who shall
stand before the overwhelming power
vested in an offended waiter We
cannot even mount a trolley car if the
conductor and motorman choose to ig
nore us
The man who rules the Stock Ex
change cannot rest at night because an
Infants voice banishes dreams He is
a victim to the insect world Who
will abolish tho tyranny of flies and of
mosquitoes
Behold the tyranny of horses dogs
and cats to which the great majority
of mortals submit without a murmur
What master is as exacting as a tight
shoe or a torturing collar A parrot
or a pet canary can sadly try mens
souls Yes things are in tho saddle
and ride mankind
Who will do justice to the tyranny
of the depraved inanimate taskmasters
A diamond necklace changes the his
tory of empires A courtiers cloak
may pave the way to royal favor A
glove a handkerchief a glass slipper
what things to conjure with Slaves
of the lamp Slaves of the ring
Ah the supremacy of trivial things
that one real tyranny to which we all
bow down Is there no hope that we
may some day throw off the heavy
yoke Well is it for us to meditate
upon this vital problem which touches
each so closely And as we meditate
we may grow wise enough to break
some of the multitudinous shackels
that hold us spiritless and helpless in
the power of the arch tyrant Little

FLAG LANGUAGE
The black flag is a sign of piracy
To strike the flag is to lower the
colors in submission
Dipping the flag is lowering it slight
ly and hoisting it again to salute a ves
sel or fort
The yellow flag shows a vessel to be
in quarantine or is a sign of a conta
gious disease
A flag of truce is a white flag dis
played to an enemy to indicate a desire
for parley or consultation
The red flag in our service is a mark
of danger and shows a vessel to be re
ceiving or discharging her powder
A flag at half mast means mourning
Fishing and other vessels return with
the flag at half mast to announce the
loss or death of some of their crew
Flags are used as the symbol of rank
and command the officers using them
being called flag officers Such flags
are square to distinguish them from
other banners
The white flag is a sign of peace
After a battle parties from both sides
often go out to the field to rescue the
wounded or bury the dead under the
protection of the white flag
If the president of the United States
goes aboard the American flag is car
ried in the bow of his barge or hoisted
at the mast of the vessel on board of
which he is New Education

A Lone Star State man tells the fol

Now that I think of it remarked
the passenger with the skullcap there
used to be a little place on this line

replied the passenger with the goatee
But it isnt Kiss Station any more

THE HABIT OF LYING
Way In Which Prevarication May
Be Developed
How does one become u liar that is
to say how does the child discover a
lie and habitually make use of it
We can admit that at the beginning
there is absolute sincerity The child
through all its first years neither lies
nor dissimulates Its sentiments its
desires translate themselves into words
and into acts Its body is the constant
and perfect expression of its inmost
being Such is the starting point sin
cerity absolute transparency
There is a multitude of little lies
tolerated which we treat as pardon
able We tell the domestic to say we
are not at home when we are we com
pliment people to their faces and crit
icise them when they are gone we say
we are happy to see some one and di
rectly after speak of having been an
noyed No more is necessary The ex
ample lias been given
We He to the child himself We are
pressed by his many embarrassing
questions and in order to free ourselves
from the embarrassment reply with
what is frequently a falsehood Some
fine day he discovers the truth and the
evil is done The gravest case is when
the child is taken as an accomplice in a
lie or when his mother tells him
Above all do not tell this to your
papa This is the ruin of all morality
The third stage is the first encounter
of the child with society the first
shock with social life The child who
tells all he knows sees and hears all
that he would better have left unsaid
is called the enfant terrible nis
parents do not tell him to lie but they
tell him it is not necessary to tell all
he thinks This is extremely serious
as it teaches the child that he cannot
show himself as he is This is the
revelation of the lie obligatory Above
all among his comrades he quickly
learns to dissimulate because if he is
naive expresses all his joys pains de
siresthey make sport of him nay
worse they abuse his confidence the
hopes projects which he has confided
to them he some day sees used against
him
Thus the impossibility of living with
out lying is revealed to him Society
excuses certain forms of lying which
are inspired by a feeling of politeness
modesty shame
The child becomes a liar because all
the world about him lies The distinc
tion between the liar and the man of
sincerity is only relative There are in
reality only two categories those who
content themselves with the lies exact
ed by social life and those who have
habituated themselves to lying more
than society wishes to lie because of
some personal interest
An important cause in the develop
ment of lying in children is the em
ployment of excessive and ill advised
punishments The child who becomes
a liar is the one who lives in perpetual
terror of reproaches humiliation or
strokes The lie for him is a supreme
resource Chicago Tribune
His Solemn Oath
A popular comedian tells a story of
a waiter at a London restaurant who
was sadly given to drink A party of
young men determined to reform him
and one day they read to him an imag
inary paragraph from a paper relating
a terrible accident in which an inebri
ate in blowing out a candle was killed
by the flame igniting the alcoholic
fumes of his breath James pricked
up his ears at this and requested that
the paragraph might be read to him
again whicli was done to the evident
horror of the poor man who imme
diately went in search of a Bible
Returning with this he expressed a
desire to take a solemn oath upon it
bemoaned the fact that he had been a
sorry tippler and was bringing himself
to ruin and then swore that never
again so long as he lived would he at
tempt to blow out a candle
Bnt Xot With the Line
He had fished up the stream and
down the stream and used flies paste
worms and every other form of bait
that the ingenuity of man could de
vise but without result and as he
wended his way homeward at the
close of the day his temper was high
and his fish basket empty Still there
was no occasion to publish the latter
fact to the whole world so when he
met a friend by the way the following
dialogue ensued
Been fishing
Yes
Had a good days sport

Peach Stones
Peach stones will make a quick hot
fire and one that will last One and
a half or two buckets of peach stones
will last as long as a bucket of coal
One has to be careful not to fill the
6tove too full or there will likely be an
explosion similar to a gasoline explo
sion The proper way to keep the fire
going is to put in a shovelful at a time
Peach stones thrown into a damp cel
lar said one who has used them are
said to have a peculiar effect on a per
son After the stones are in a cellar
for a time gases arise and the fumes
will go to ones head and give the
same effect as if the distilled product

The Kent of the Kingfisher
Our American belted alcyon or com
mon kingfisher is an expert hole borer
There is scarcely a clayey bank along
the streams of our middle and south
ern states but has its face cut by the
door of one of these gloomy looking
houses
The hole is usually quite round and
goes directly into the bank with a
slight upward slant to a distance of
from two to four feet where it turns
nearly at right angles to one side or
the other ending in a large jug shaped
pocket where the eggs are laid The
kingfisher is my most cheerful com
panion when I am out for a days or a
weeks angling It is an ever fresh de
light to watch him swooping down into
the clear brook water with a melodious
plunge and coming forth sparkling like
a flake from a blue sea wave or a frag
ment of turquoise He rarely fails to
catch the minnow he strikes at but his
appetite is unremitting and insatiable
He eats from morning till night
Maurice Thompson
Two Things That Scare a Secro
Two seemingly harmless things ex
cite the fear of the southern negro
One is the cracking of the finger joints
the other is to be stepped over as he
lies prone upon the ground The crack
ing of the finger joints seems to sug
gest to the negro imagination the rat
tling of a skeletons bones while to be
stepped over is regarded as likely to
bring bad luck to grown folks and to
check the growth of children A half
grown negro boy will sternly com
mand a playfellow who has stepped
over his body to step back in order
that the spell may be removed
