I was forcibly reminded of this at witnessing recently a Joke a merry fellow j.luyed upon hi fellow guests at a large din ner given at a beautiful country houso. Among the knives, forks and sjkjoiis found at each cover tho guesti soon observed a very singularly shaped spoon, the like of which not one of all tho twenty or more assembled liod ever seen. It was long, and the bowl, over which was a little handle, was triangle In tiliapo. It lay a quite harmless looking affair and j ot a wi;njxn which doubtless sent dismay to ninny an apjwirently indifferent observer, for its shnfe suggested no reason of its why and wherefore Of course, it was one of tho ttcent innovations which enterprising deal M are continually forcing upon the notice til a luxury loving race, and that, too, it ftvos a new acquisition in this pretentious fashionable and wealthy household, was nLso apparent by the glaringly new shine of fhe uilver. Course after course of the elaborate dinner Vrcnt on, and if tho keen edge of enjoyment Tor those jxjrsons who always worry over trifles was gone it was because the specter at the feast was this mysterious Bjxkwi, and that it was a ghost which would not be laid in the minds of more than would seem possible was ojienly confessed by a merry jwrty of eight who drove home together through the moon lit night. There wus but one resource as carelessly and quietly as possible to keep an eye turned hostess ward, for the owner of the strange (Obsession must be familiar with its use. It chanced that the joke loving man men tioned hail tx-en assigned the honor of es corting his hostess to tho table. Being a careful student of human nature, it did not take him lon to form the conclu-siou that his neighbors were filled with a sense of The pos hibiSty of making a faux pa, and he as quhily determined that somebody should do thfyif he could effect it. What cared he Vliether it partially fell upon Lis own head 1 if he could get a joke on somebody elief So when the fish came on and proved to be an elaborately made dish for which this singu lar ailuir might jwssibly be the article of use, there was an almost imperceptible lull, a succession of quick glances toward the head of the table, and a hesitating flutter of hands, and this joker submitted his hostess to such a running tire of questions that she -was the very last person to take up her fork and calmly begin to eat. Then followed a succession of courses for which tho articles of use so obviously suggested themselves that there could be no mistake, and then come a punch in which were frozen rum, cherries, while on the plate which held the pretty punch gloss was a little of something which afterward proved to be a strange sweet East Indian con diment. Again the half auxious lull, and again was the Attention of the hostess en chained and diverted until some woman more bold and self confident than those about her seized an ordinary little gold spoon and straightway, like a flock of geese, every one followed tho leader. Then came terrapin served individually jn paper cases, and now Sir. Joker hail his fun. Ills hostess was in such absolute convulsions of laughter over Lis funny stories that eating would have re sulted in choking had she attempted it, and by the time she dipiied this new queer spoon into the dish he hud the satisfaction of feel ing that two-thirds of his friends had made an exhibition of greenness. Bo much did this amuse his highness that he declares some day he shall give a dinncT in which everything shall be served in and eaten with newfangled dishes and imple ments, and the only regrets shall be the know everything, never mistaken sort of persons. Tho- moral of tho contretemps is that a hostess, thoughtful and kind, whose housekeeping appurtenances are novel and likely to bo unfamiliar to friends perhaps less favored with that power for possessing new innovations, should avoid the possibility of making them feel awkward, not of course by keeping her possessions locked away in ber silver safe or her china closet, but by setting quick example of what use to put the new thing, or, as might easily have been done in the above case, having the spoon tent to each individual at the same time and on tb same plate with the paper case holding tb terrapin. There could then have been no mistake and no discomfort, while the service would have been qite as pretty. "S. S. E. 1L" in Chicago Herald. " The Tendency to Untruthfulness. But coming down to the detail of the thing, there is no surer way to make a child with any tendency to untruthfulness cherish the tendency than to let him know that you are aware of the tendency, and to let him know it, most of all, in any obnoxious way. It is possible that with a child with whom you Lave established a confiden tial intimacy, so that he considers you more as his dear friend than as his cor rector and overseer, you can let such knowl edge of yours be known, and can become, agreeably to him, a fellow watcher with him self over the fault. But this is not a very frequent possibility, since children's inti mates and confidants are liable to be of tho same ago with themselves, and it is rarely 'hat they do not look up with a little awe id distance upon the person, whoever it zj bfstthat is appointed to take care of "irAl orals and behavior. 'iut there is one course that can always be sued, and that is never to let the child a moment dream that you suspect him the wrong doing or saying. Unless it v juld be absolutely necessary, for some rea yf better known to yourself, that you should "letray your knowledge, keep it to yourself and maintain your watchfulness, but let the child hope that you consider his standard of truthfulness to be as high as any in the -rorld. You can do it without either deceit - untruthfulness on your own part if you to it with care and are precis in your as to what tne child ought to be ' than as to what he is. iven a reputation to live up to, a to maintain, and tho child's pride i rescue, his sense of honor is jul Jj point ol giving birth to truth J thenceforward noble oblige, Pt he seizes vo the real beauty and .' truth, np.m which train itself SzJ on the otter Lund, if you would IlUle liar a big J eternally 1 constantly confront him with ths I f is a liar already.

KhooU CoaMll Their Parents, One U often tempted to smile at soiimi of the questions relating to etiquette, asked through the columns of the press by young men and women. The answers are so obvi ous to persons of more mature age and ex perience that one cannot help wondering why these young people do not consult tl.eir parents, for, making due allowance for the case of orphans, many of those who seek in formation in this way must possess falters and mothers. Alasl it has probably never occurred to theso young iersons that they should consult their parents in kindred mat ters; and viewed in this light, the subject becomes both a sud and a serious one. The fathers and mothers of our day are certainly to blame for this state of things they have, in many cases, allowed their children to grow tip much like unbroken colts, in the matter of social discipline and restraint, and when they at last begin to see for themselves the necessity of finding out and obeying social laws, they turn away from their parents to seek other sources of information, because they have never been taught to take counsel of their natural guardians. Many mothers seem to think that if they attend to the details of housekeeping, ro vide their children with clothing and pay their school bills, they have done all that can be required of them. Others, again. forget that what is so familiar to them is unknown ground to their children, and the latter are only too willing to assume control of all their own actions, till, by and by, some blunder causes them pain and mortification. and they perceive that the world polite, like every other world, has laws which cannot be violated with impunity. In nine cases out of ten tho best rule in to "ask mother." She may not always bo able to tell ber daughter the newest "fad," but newest fads are not always desirable are followed often by a certain fast set only. Mother can almost always tell about the old ways, and one should know about these first, just as a luwyer must read Blackstone and Coke beforo he can understand modern stat u to law. Florence Howe Iiall in Dcinorest's Monthlv. Unconscious Cruelty to Children. Some loving mothers are very cruel to littlo girls. 1 remember an excellent lady. whose children attended the same school I went to, who made their lives miserable by tacking around the skirts of every white dress they wore a curiously beautiful piece of embroidery. The thing in itself was charm ing, but in that year a little girl's dress was plainly hemmed or tucked. 1 he other chil lren laughed at the trimming they could not appreciate, the victims wept. The mother kept on the even tenor of her way, and regu larly did up the trimming when it was soiled. Tho picturesque, tho odd, the grotesque, has been fashionable now for years, but the formal was then the order of tbo day. View ing tho distress of my friends, I then and there resolved that if I "had children when I was grown up and married," they shou'd never bo tormented by a whim of mine. Tho world of small people is less tolerant than that of "grown ups." I have seen a "queer" ranch basket, a caprice in the cut of an apron, a set of f ors not approved of by schoolmates, torture a child's soul; and when a schoolgirl or school boy wants something '"because the others have it," provide it if you can. A sense of being different from others, pe culiar, an object of ridicule, breaks a child's spirit, and it does not matter that it ought to know that what you have given it is some thing superior, if it does not. I knew a woman who told me that she al most hated her mother because she would cut Lcr hair short, like a boy's, at a time when all the other children wore a long braid tied with a ribbon, unless they were fortunate enough to possess "ringlets." Mary Kyle Dallas in Once a Week. The "Old Baby's" Grief. What a curious thing it is to think that that wonderful new baby will turn into a commonplace old baby in a year or two that with the advent of number two his reign is over. A little girl, though she is only 2 years old, takes an interest in that new baby, feels that she must help take care of it, goes about maternally airing its garments and holding the pincushion for nurse, delights in its baths, and boasts about her baby brother before she can talk plain. But the boy that is another matter. He scowls when that wrinkled piece of humanity is presented to him, and refuses to kiss it. He wants none of it. Why should it have his place on mamma's shoul der! Why should be be told to go away? He thinks as ill of it as bis limited knowledge of mundane affairs will permit him to think of anything. He has been known to request that it might be "frowed away," and to call it "nassy sing;" and, indeed, his trials are very great. Life has altered signally for him. He feels it to his heart's core, if he is made of sensitive stuff. It is all very well for Bridget to take him into the kitchen and tell him to "be a nice lad, an' she'll make him a cake." He wants his mother; he never was turned out of mother's room before. His heart is fulL Well for him, at this time, if he has a grand mother ready to make him her idol, a little jealous for him as the first born. Then, indeed, his ways shortly become the ways of pleasant ness, and life assumes a holiday, cake, candy, gingerbread and toy aspect. But in any event that old baby has a very unhappy day or two before it, a season when knowl edge of the bitterness of life comes to him prematurely, and he understands the feelings of a deposed emperor. Mary Kyle Dallas in Once a Week. Let the Girls Romp. Most mothers have a dread of romps, so they lecture the girls daily on the proprieties, and exhort them to be littlo ladles. They like to see them very quiet and gentle and as prim as possible. The lot of such children is rather pitiable, for they are deprived of the fun and frolic which they ore entitled to. Children boys and girls must have exercise to keep them healthy. Deprive them of it, and they will fade away like flowers without sunshine. Running, racing, skipping, climb ing these are the things that strengthen the muscles, expand the chest and build up the nerves. Tho mild dose of exercise taken iu the nursery ith calisthenics or gymnastics will not invigorate the system Ukeagood romp in ttw open air. Mothers, therefore, who counsel their little girls to play very quietly make a mistake, ijstter tbb laughing, rosy cheeked, romping girl than the pale, lily faced one, who is called every inch a lady. ' The latter rarely breaks thing, or tears her dresses, or tires her mother's p&tiMice as the former does; but, after all, what does the tearing and breaking amount tol It is cot a wise policy to put au old head on young shoulders. Child hood is the time for childish pranks and plays. The girls will grow into womanhood soon enough. Let them be children as loi as they can. Civ them plenty of fresh air and sunlight, and let them ran and romp as beany, bealthy, romptnj glru, rather than I isle faced little ladies, condemned from their very cradles to nervousness, headache and similar oilmen ts. Farm and Manufacturer. Improvement f the Hair. But hair must be carefully cultivate! to grow even in length, supple, silken and graceful in color. Everything is encourag ing for the improvement of hair if time can be given it. The same treatment will not do for different kinds of hair by any means. Strong, stiff, naturally moist hair needs a weekly shampooing and daily and nightly brushing, with exposure to the morning and evening sun, which is a great stimulant to the hair. Thin, soft, dry hair needs tender care, but with either the first step toward improvement is thorough washing of tho scalp and hair, which collects dust its entire length. To cleanse it the various alkalies, borax, ammonia, carbonate of potash and washing soda are used, and the strong hair will bear them, but they burn the life out of thin, dry hair. Tho Venetian ladies drew their hair through a crownless hat and let it stream over the brim to dry, and 3Tou may follow tho example, sitting in tho sun If possible an hour. Light is a great stimulant and preservative to hair, ami it is well to open it when dry and let the wind blow through. The sun will cause tho natural oil of tho hair to flow or the head may be held to the fire til I the dry hair feels moist. A smart brushing night and morn ing, careful braiding before sleep, and an hour spent once a month clipping all forked ends, will insure a rapid growth of hair, if the general health is good, without other treatment. If you want a stimulant at night rub a littlo oil of lavender in the roots of the hair with shampoo brush. Do not irritate tho scalp by hard brushing. Regular care is better than overdoing. Shirley Dare. Locked l" for Company. Among the strange fetiches that survive among a race otherwise civilized and refined is that of the parlor and best bedroom. These are commonly the largest, coolest and pleasantest rooms in the house, fitted with the most attractive furniture, cariiets and pictures and locked up for company. Was ever such folly I A man who affords him self an agreeable apartment puts himself out of it and will not let himself in unless the clergyman is there, or unless somebody ar rives from a distant city or another street. It is better to turn the juvenile population of the house into the parlor, to wear tho best carpets to shreds, to leave finger marks on tho mantel piece, to let them jump on tho bed in the best room until it has no more spring in it than a restaurant chicken-Mt is wiser to do this than to close and sanctify these apartments, involving them in solem nity, dampness and a stuffy smell. Open tho blinds and windows and let the light and air in; let the children in, too, and live there 3'ourself. Don't have things too lino to use. If you own a piece of furniture that you think is too good for you, und that you find that 3-ou can't livo up to it, give it to a museum and havo it put in a gloss case, or, better. give it to a friend who is not afraid of it. Brooklyn Euglo. Method of Marking Clothing. With Payson's indelible ink and a steel pen, write on the small hem of tho sheets. and the iuside of tho pillow caso hem either her name or initials like this, C. O. A. 1 x, C. O. A. 3 x. That is to know whether her number is coriwt at a glance. As they get older and she buys new, number them iu the same way, commencing with I, then 2 and so 011, and put oxter each number the singlo cross (x), then mark another cross on the first lot like this, xx. As they take their turn among the old, number the new ones in the same way. She would know then that C. O. A. 1 x, C. O. A. 3 x means tho new one, C. O. A- 1 xx, C. O. A. 2 xx means medium and C. O. A. 1 xxx, C. O. A. 2 xxx means old, the numbers, of course, to increase with each one up to 12 of each' kind if sho has them. As all are numbered, she can tell at a glance whether any aro missing aud by the crosses which lot it belongs to. Lnima Keeler in Good Houskeepiug. Tender Morsels of Humanity. Children of well-frxlo people, educated and supposed to possess averago intelligence, suf fer severely in summer from want of the most ordinary care, especially in the caso of families remaining in town during tho heated term and taking excursions to the beaches once oi twice a week, when it is not unusual to make trial of tho efficacy of salt water bathing for six-mouths-old babies, and to bring theni home in tho cool, chill evening. without extra wraps, or any apparent recol lection of the fact that they are tender morsels of humanity. Janet E. Runtz-Rees In Demorest's Monthly. Use of a Clothes Tree. A clothes tree, as you may know, is a stiff affair, looking very much like the trunk of a tree with several short, bare branches left at tho top. If you have one of these convenient articles in each bed room the masculine mem bers of your household may be induced to use the pegs instead of hanging up their clothes on the floor. A walnut or cherry clothes tree is just the thing for a small hall where on or dinary hat rack would be in the way. Home. There ere numerous ways to remove warts. A good, simple and harmless way is said to be the saturating of tho wart with lemon juice two or three times a day for several days or a week. The wart will then disap pear gradually and without pain, leaving no mark. Another way is to use common wash ing soda and apply it frequently. The best and simplest cosmetic for woman is constant gentleness and sympathy for the noblest interests of her fellow creatures. This preserves and gives to her features au indelibly gay, fresh and agreeable expression. If women would but realize that harshness makes them ugly, it would prove the best means of converbion. It you can only restrain a child from wrong conduct by hurting it, I fear you have little to hope for in its future. At first it should be good from lovo for you. It should obey because you have proved yourself wise and loving in its eyes. After, because you have taught it to be honorable. To keep the surface of your kid gloves looking well, when you take them off smooth them out lengthwise until they have about the same outline that they have on your hand, and put them in a dry place. If the gloves are rolled together into a wad, the surface will soon present an unpleasing ap pearance. There are many skins which redden and become irritated in summer, and when such is the case saline draughts and lemonade should be taken freely, while a wineglass of vinegar in a pint of distilled water with a little bran Snakes an excellent, if old fash ioned, wash. " Kevereven scold a child for an accident the breaking of a glass, tho tearing of a gar mentand listen to its explanations. Don't frighten the little ones from making you their confidant; don't scare them into fake-hood. A CHAT WITH BLONDIN. HE CARES NOW MORE FOR MONEY THAN FOR GLORY. I'hyslque of the ruinous Tlj;ht Rope Walker No Weakeulng of Ifis Powers. The Mot nifflcult I eat A Trip on Ills Hark His Method. "If zey would pay mo I would cross Ni agara again, but for zo gloiro, j'cu al assezf' Of course ouly one man in tho world could have made that remark, and although it is u distinction to havo done what no other man of woman born in ell tho ages has ever doiu-, Jean Francois Blondiii seems to Luvo in a ineasuro survived himself. When in his in trepid primo ho walked the narrow path of heiup above tho mad swirling waters so dizzily far beneath him, both tho American and Canadian shores were black with beholders who watched him with bated breath. Now when ho returns to America after decades and exhibits the even more startling nerve of tripping blithely on tho tight rojio with C years on his back, a tparso gathering of Coney Island visitors look with languid in terest' at tho doughty funambulist before tho Sea Beach pavilion. There is much of tho samo dissonance bo- tween the Bloudin of today up aloft 011 his aerial pathway aud the Blond in who treads the earth. There, clad in tights, anil soft ened by tho enchanting touches of distance, there is something of tho quasi heroic about his physique, despite his protuberant abdo men. Straight as a crow Indian, motionless as the statue of Mcmnou, ho stands until the braying band ou the portico of tho pavilion breaks into a tuuiultuo.i ;::.: ..l i. 'i c.i ru.-. ing his long balancing jk1o ho steps forth hardily aud with on elastic abandon on the rope, lho cords stand out 011 his legs und arms, his hair has a sort of wind swept look, and his straight ahead gazo is as firm and confident as tho uublanching look of Fate. His wonderful preservation, the agility which invests his six and u half decados with the robust vigor of a youth, tell of his mod erate, carefully regulated life. In tho morn ing bo takes a breakfast of eggs and wino, or something equally light, aud then touches nothing till utter ho has wulkod iu the even ing, when he takes a hearty dinuer and lin gers at the loard with friends over some cor dial quiet, restful, content. "Do you feel any weakening of your pow ers?' was asked. "None. There is nothing that I have ever dono which I cannot do equally well today," answered Blondin in French. "I am slightly heavier, but I feel as active as I ever felt." "Have you never fult any trepidation on tho rope?" ;'o. Of courso thero is a certain tension of nerves, but I am as cool as I could wish. I havo never had any accident or been hurt. One or twico I lost my chair. I did this at Niagara. Occasionally some of the gear or guy ropes have given way, but I have never been injured. Tho ropo is always subjected to a good test first. This ono is eaiablo of standin a pressure of forty tons, so I urn not likely to break it down. My son super intends all of these details now, and I cm feel tho most perfect confidence in tho safety of everything." ' ell, thero must be some feat more diffi cult than others, is there not P "Balancing with tho chair is tho most diffi cult so far as equilibrium goes. But the bicj'clo work is the most dangerous, as recov ery in case of n slip would be so diilicult, if not impossible." "How do 3-ou tell when the chair is just balanced in tho mlddlo?'' "I um not so particular about that so long as my center of gravity is right. I tell that by my shoulders and my balancing pole. Thero is a sense of being balanced which a.s snres ine it is as it should be." "In carrying a person over 011 your back, nro 3ou indifferent as to who it is, or do you bavo a person w ho is trained or specially qualified to be carried? I don't supposo you iiud many who covet tho trip." 'Oh, 3 es. There aro plenty who are will ing to take it. I would as soon carry ono as another if ho has nerve. But when I feel nobody trembling or showing au' trace of vertigo, I adv'so them not to go. Although their legs aro run through straps they could slip out of them if they wero to get faint and fall backward. I ho mast swa3-s somewhat, and a person subject at all to vertigo will show it when he gets up there. I generally carry over my son, though his wife is dn cidedly opposed to his taking tho trip. But it is perfectly safe. I am not as dangerous as a bobtail car as a means of transit." 'When 3-ou crossed Niagara did you find the rush of tho water below 3-ou a nerve try ing thing?" 'No. For a fortnight before I crossed I used to go and look down and see the waters sweep over; but I found that they had 110 unpleasant effect on me. It has leeu a littlo annoj'ing here at Coney Island when somo friends have taken me up into tho tower and then asked mo if I felt the height. I would as lief walk a rope ut one height as another. The difficulty is in stretching a rope securely at such great height." "Have you ever changed your method at all?' 'No. My method is the outcome of expe rience rather than theory. I began walking when a child. There is such a thing as a genius for rope walking as there is for every thing else. I think I have it," said Blondin modesth', "Now my son, though he can get over a rope, is not a rope walker. He is a good all-round athlete, but he has 110 de cided talent for the profession, and would rather go over a tight ropo on my back than on his feet." New York Tribune Interview. The Key to Popular Writing. It is not given to any one man to cover successfully the whole rago of literary work, and as an essayist Mr. Robert Louis Stevenson is a failure. Of course anything dressed in tho garment of his perfect Eng lish is pleasant reading, but for a man to successfully write critical monologues he must have something in them beside the beauty of style. Mi-. Stevenson, in his esti mate of popular writers, does not seem to touch the peculiar power of this class at alL He wholly fails to notice tho one thing which is common to all of them, be their methods what they may. There is a gentleman in New iork, Mr. Harlan P. Halsey, who is the author of the Old Sleuth series of stories. These are so popular that he makes an income of about $23,000 a year by his pen. His own statement about hia work is worth quoting, therefore, as that of a man who knows how to reach the world of readers spoken- of by Mr. Stevenson: "I have a Bet rule," he said upon one occasion; 'I make something happen within every thousand words." Incident, then, is the key to popular writing, not a description of what the reader "believes he would be were he in the hero's place," as Mr, Stevenson puts it. If Mr. Stevenson will again examine the stories of Sylvanua Cobb, Jr., Mrs. South worth, Braeebridge Hemyng, Pierce Egan, or any of the popular writers, he will find that they are but a succession of incidents, incidents, incidents. a There is always some thing happening within each thousand words.
