He Lost His Penny.
The porters of the Pennsylvania sta-
tion, although usually merely attentive
and serviceable, are, in many Instances,
equipped with a regular sense of
humor, and some of their remarks are
genuinely amusing to the travelers
who encounter them often, says a New
York news letter. One of them stopped
for a moment to watch a huge and un-
comfortable looking man weigh hime
self, The man was a foreigner, and
Inasmuch as he placed a penny in a
scale which clearly’ demanded five
cents for service it did not work. He
stood after the coin fell, looking re.
markably indignant. Then, seeing the
porter behind him, he turned to him
and told him that he had put a cent In
and that nothing had happened, “What
must I do now? asked the vietim,
shrugging his shoulders. The negro
looked at him with a smile, meanwhile
taking off his hat and scratching his
head speculatively, , “Well,” he saiq,
“when you put your money in to learn
what you weigh and then nothing hap-
pens you just go right on wondering

Imagination Is Stronger Than the In.
tellect and Fiction Is as Real to

Why do children lle? Edwin 8. Pul-
der In the Mothers’ Magazine answers
he question by saving that the imagl-
ation of a child is stronger than his
intellect, that fiction is as real to a
child as fact.
“The cure for lies inspired by imagi-
nation,” he asserted, “is the education
of the child's intellect to distinguish
between fact and fancy. As his error
is mental, not normal, his cure must
be mental. It would be a grave error
of training to attempt to suppress his
Imagination as a cure for his untruths,
Imagination is the mainspring which
moves his ‘mentality to growth, hence
it should be directed into rational chan-
nels and not curbed.
“Only parents who cannot distin.

and a real lle punish such infants or
scold them for being wicked. The chiid

none, Therefore he does not see the
