SPONTANEOUS COMPLIMENT
It Xnne the U<« <■'»■!»»
It Had Coni the III*** •
Whipping
A little group Indie- «• i‘*-d on a
hotel piazza were talking a <*.im
pliments they had received, • t en one
x very pretty you tig woman, who It »
teacher in a private PC bool IttkiSl
told her story.
“Three years ago,” she -aid. "I
taught my first school, In one of tha i
mountain districts of West V’rg'nia,
where I had gone to Wait *MM friends
who were interested In the ftmber
business. I had only gone to visit, but
I had just graduated from normal
school, and when an opportunity *•*
offered for me to teach, and there was
Veal need of some one who knew some
thing of modern methods, I agreed to
try it for one term. I got along cry
well, all things considered, and liked
it well enough, except that I found It
absolutely necessary to punish some of
the scholars with the rod. Out of this
fact grew my compliment, which, I am
sure, was the sincerest one 1, ever re
ceived. Among my scholars was a big
boy of IT, a lazy, lumbering, good-na- |
tured lad, who whispered so much In
school and paid so little attention to j
being kept in that at last I told him
if he whispered again I would whip
him. He promised me that he would
not offeEd again, and for three whole
days he kept his promise. On the
morning of the third day 1 appeared
at school in a new gown, which waa
<he most becoming one, I think, I ever
had, and when the scholars saw me
they seemed to be as pleased with my
appearance as I was, and all the girls
came to tell me what a pretty dress I
had and how nice I looked. The boy*
were more shy, and whatever they
thought they kept to themselves. 'Fhai
big boy waln’t there when school |
opened, but before the five-minute al
lowance waa up he came lumbering In,
and. hancins’ ud hla hat. rolled over
into his seat and picked up a book. I
didn’t notice him at first, but later 1
saw that my new gown had attracted
him, and that he was admiring it, for
he was unskilled in the conventionali
ties, and made no effort to conceal hia
feelings. Once or twice I cauglit Ills
eye and Rooked away, but not for
long, and at last it began to annoy me.
^.t the same time he seemed io me mak
ing a tremendous effort of some kind
that I did not understand, and finally,
right while I was looking at him, he
reached over to the boy in the seat be
hind him and whispered something.
“I was an open violation of the rule,
and, besides, was a flagrant disregard
of his word, and I called him up at
once.
“ ‘Henry,’ I said, with all the severity
I could muster, ‘weren’t you whisper
ing just then?’
“ ‘Yes’m,' he confessed, with his head,
down.
“You know it Is against the rule?”
“ ‘Yes’m.’
“ ‘And you know that yeu promised
me that you would not whisper again?*
“ ‘Yes’m.’
“ ‘Well,’ I said, getting a bettor held
on my hickory switch, ‘I shall keep aay
word better, than you have yours, and
as I told you I would whip you for whis
pering I am going to do it. Havo you
anything to say why you should not bo
punished?’
“ ‘No’m.’
“Having gone through all the if or ms
of the law I proceeded to carry out the
sentence, and I succeeded so well that
when I finished Henry was blubbering.
“ 'Are you sorry now for what you
did?’ I asked, when it was over.
“ ‘N'o’m,’ he answered, greatly to my
surprise. }
“ •You’re not?' I exclaimed, taking up J
the switch again, but Henry never |
flinched.
“Wo’m; I couldn’t help it, ma’am.’
“ ‘Couldn’t help it? Of course you
could help it. You're not a child and .
ought to set a better example. The
children might say that, but yon can
not offer as an excuse that you could
not help it.’
•• ‘Well. I couldn't, ma’am,' he satd.
looking down a t a knot-hole In the floor
that he was trying to stick the toe of
his shoe into, ‘you was lookin' so durn
purty that I had to say so to somebody
er I’d boated wide open, shore.'
“There was no question aa to Henry’s
sincerity, but it was so embarraaaing
that I really fel# like giving him an
other whipping.”—Washington Star,

Never go out in blustery weather
without a veil unless you wish a tanned

Do not forget, when drying the face
after washing, to rub upward toward
the nose. This will prevent wrinkles.
‘ and will help to smooth out to a great
extent the crease alongside the nose.
Use neither hot nor cold water ex
clusively for bathing. A good rule to
follow ia a hot bath at night and a cold
one in the mdrhing. but be sure to take
a balh daily if you wish to keep your
skin in good condition.
Do not wear tight shoes if you dpslra

walk comfortably or well in shoes that
are too small for her feet. Do not wear
too small gloves.
Avoid tight lacing and any form of

for the real article where eouaria

la not convenient, says tbe New York
Herald, to trat.sport -he ne. nesary sea
water in tanks for 800 milea or more,
and so sea salt ban been commonly
employed, dissolved ia fresh water ac
cording to prescript loa.
Kiperlments have b<*ea . onduotsd
recently at Wood's Holl, Mas i., with a
view to counterfeiting sea water with
such exactness aa to make ,t practi
cally indistinguishable from tbe real
stuff. This, indeed, ha. been accom
plished so successfully that the most
delicate animals, such aa sea ane
mones have lw»»n kept alive In tbe
artificial fluid for months together
Apparently there Is no material dif
ference between tbe imitation and tba
article provided by old Neptune
To accomplish this result it was
necessary to make quite an elaborate
chemical compound, inasmuch as sea
water la a complicated mixture at a
great variety of substances Roughly
speaking It consists of 9614 per rent,
of fresh water plus three and one-half
per cent, of mlaeral salts Three
fourths of these salts ars chloride of
sodium, or common table salt, and tbs
next largest constituent Is chloride of
magnesium. After these come sul
phate of magnesium, sulphate of time,
sulphate of potash, bromide of mag
nesium and carbonate of lime.

also contains some silver, copper, etae,

I am eonvineed that long driving fei
a natural gift, says Mr. Walter J.
Travis, in the Country Life in Amer

developed to a certain extent, but all
the art in the world cannot entirely
overcome physical deficiencies. Driv

latter, is the more susceptible of im

The Venesuelan island of Margarltm
whose name is the Latin word fb*
pearl, and whose gems ware fought
over by the early Spanish explorers,
is an interesting spot. About 2,006

business, which has its thrilling mo

dredged from the pearl oyster bagjtt
may disclose a jewel of great prise.
The Margaritan pearls are of las

an occasional black one, and sudh q
