Dewey's Rearing as a Roy.
A growing appetite was not sufficient
to make George Dewey a chunky boy,
however, by any means. He was small
for his years and his activity kept him
thin. The figure that this little Ver
monter presented in those days is a
winsome one, as it is painted by those
who knew him. Dark eyes flashed
from a brown, intelligent countenance
that was always beaming with good
nature and youthful plausibility. An
erect bearing end au air of command
well became him. it would seem that
he was always meditating a mischief
or an exploit of which he was himself
the centre figure and his chums his
faithful satellites. "He was a pomp
ous little fellow," one of his old com
panions asserts. "His head was up
and he patronized us a bit, and how
we liked itl I can see him now with
tha* bright eye, a smile on his lips
and his hands in his pockets, coming
whistling along the street. His nature
was fua-loving, yet lovable. The boy
did some reckless things, but never a
mean one."—New York Mail an* 1 ! Ex

Beautiful Fan ftlade by Filipinos,
One scarcely thinks that the Fili
pinos are capable of dainty work, but
Miss Augusta Akmeyer, of St. Louis,
has reoeived from Manila a fan foi
which for beauty rivals anything of tli«
kind ever devised by the artistit
Japanese.
The fan is made to fold. The handle
and separating parts are made of frail
ivory, daintily carved. Inserted into
the end of each is the feather of a
swan, at the end of which is the
gorgeous tip of a peacock feather,
altogether forming au attractively
beautiful blending of natural colors.
Perhaps the most beautiful piece of
work in the construction of the fan
lies in the swan feathers. Woven into
tbtse slender feathers are variegated
threads, forming fantastic figuring of
flowers, personages and leaves. In
the centre of the right side of the fan
is woven among the feathers a picture
representing a man and a woman
picking fruit. Into this one picture
alone is introduced an amazing woof
of colors, varied as those of the rain
bow, causing one to marvel how such
a variety of threads could be woven
so intricately and with such perfect
precision upon the slender swan
feathers. About these figures are
clustered vari-colored flowers and
leaves, the latter being of a pure
white silk, while the former are made
of silks of many hues. Upon the re
verse side of the feathers are also in
numerable woven flowers and leaves.
The work is evideutly that of some
pasi master in the art.

"Nothing whatever, Bobby; irony

Bobby thought a moment, and con
tinued:
' 'I don't love you just a cent's worth,
mamma. Is that irony?"
"I suppose so," replied his mother,
with a smile that she didn't attempt
to repress.
"Then," said Bobby, with an air of
triumph, "wasn't it irony when you
said, the day before yesterday, that
you wouldn't give one a quarter to buy
a ticket for the circus to-day?"

THE MAN WHO PRAYED AND QUIT.
Be knolt In prayer at night
To ask bis Maker's love,
And likewise that he might
Have joy, at last, above.
He never sought bis bed
Until he'd bent the knee—
Until, with humble head,
He offered up bis plea.
He prayed the Lord to give
Him love for those distressed,
To teach him how to live
And labor (or the best.
It happened on a day,
Ere Age had come by stealth,
That Luck stood in his way
And gave him lordly wealth.
He knolt no more at night,
He made no humble plea
For love or those who might
Be favored less than he.

fm^WKENuiGI
I OF CALEB. j
He was lame, and his pigeon-toed
bait called forth the ridicule of his
playmates. The boys did not mean to
be unkind when they laughed at Caleb.
They were thoughtless. Thoughtless
boys are nearly always kind boys
when they are aroused, but it usually
takes something akin to an earthquake
to wake them tip.
Caleb was poor. He had grown too
fast and was distressingly awkward.
He never kuew his lessons. He did
not pay attention and was continually
in disgrace. All these things could
have been forgiven him, had he not
been untidy. His hands were always
grimy and his face was always
imndged; his clothes were unwashed
and his hair uncombed.
In the two-roomed house which he
jailed home and shared with seven
sther children, Caleb slept iu the dry
goods box that served as a table. The
box was turned with the open side to
ward the door. When the boy rose
in the morning he was ready for
breakfast, if there was any, and if
there was none he went out of the
door and seldom returned until time
togo to bed.
At school the teachers tried to im
prove his personal habits, but at last
gave up and put him in an isolated
seat in the corner. One autumn a
slender girl took the reins of school
government in her hands. She did
not look equal to the stirring western
school of eighty pupils, and the
patrons said so, one to another.
Of all these things Miss Wo'.cott
was serenely ignorant, and us the
school days went by the rough boys
grew less rough and the rude girls
.ess rude. She examined Caleb's
grimy finger-marked copybook and
'.aid her hand on his unkempt curls.
"You can do better than that,
Caleb," Hlie said. "Kuu and wash
your hands."
Tho boy looked up doggedly.
"There isn't any towel," he said.
"1 will give you one."
Ho was goie a long time. Miss
Wolcott went in search of him and
found him gazing ruefully at his black
paw-marks on the snowy linen.
"Try a little more soap and water.
Daleb," said Miss Wolcott. He did,
and the etl'ect was pleasing to him, for
he smiled broadly and gazed long at
his white hands.
"Take this fresh page of your copy
book and see how nice you cau keep
it," said Miss Wolcott.
The next day he splushed about in
wash-basin without being told to
do so. He a«»plied water and soap to
his face and surprised every one, him
self iucluded. Day by day the pages
af the copybook grew whiter and the
letters neater. One morning he took
aff his coat and proudly displayed his
shirt. "I washed it myself," he said.
"It looks very nice," said Miss
Wolcott, smiling brightly at him.
"Here is a little comb which I want
you to have." He did not thank her,
but stood first on one foot and theu
an the other and smiled, showing his
eveu white teeth. He learned his los
sons and was no longer looked upon
as simple minded. U hen the examina
tion 1 eports were sent home he stood
uear the head of the list.
"How do you like your new teacher,
Ca'ebV" asked the janitor one day.
"Things aren't like they used to
be," he said. "Miss Wolcott is kind
to a fellow and never knocks him
übout or says mean things to him
euce."
"She will if you goto acting up."
Caleb smiled and half closed his
dark eyes. "We'll see," ho said
aloud, and to himself. "I shan't act
up."
The date for the annual exhibition
of school work drew near. Hundreds
of sheets of paper were to be neatly
lined with red ink. Miss Wolcott grew
weary.
"Who cau help me?" she asked her
self. "No one," and she went on rul
ing.
On Saturday morning Caleb ap
peared at Miss Woh-ott's door. His
face and hands were clean and every
curl was crisp and tight.
"Let me help you rule the papers,
Miss Wolcott," he said.
She was very tired and felt at first
annoyed that she should have to be
bothered with the boy. Then her true
self rose above the weariness and she
realized that it might be her oppor
tunity to help the fliendless child. So
she gave him work on condition that
he did not spoil many sheets. He
worked rapidly and neatly. The next
Saturday he helped Miss Wolcott
carry all of tho dainty ribbon-tied
essays, stories aud written recitations
to the schoolroom.
"Tho papers are all so nice. They
are wo-th a great deal to me, Caleb,"
said Miss Wolcott as she closed the
schoolroom door.
That night the fire whistle rang its
terrifying chromatic scale. Miss Wol
cott looked out of her window—tho
school building was in flames. She
hastened to the burning house. The
roof fell in as she neared it, and two
firemen carried some one out on a
shutter. It was Caleb. He had heard
the fire alarm and hasteued to save
the exhibitiou work. He was taken
to a hospital, and Miss Wolcott staid
by his side. At last he opened his
eyes and smiled—
"l saved some of them," he said.
Theu he lapsed again into uncon
sciousness.
Caleb's bravery awakened the in
terest of the schoolboys, and they
spent their spare time by his cot. As
he grew better their bright minds be
gan to evolve plans for liiin.
"Father said he would take him
into our house as though he were his
son, if we couldn't do any better,"
said Harold. "But I think by the
way he said it that he expects us to do
better—l mean to think of something
better."
"Well, there's his mother and broth
ers and sisters," said another.
"Perhaps they could do better if they
had a chance."
"Let's go and see 'em,"said Lester,
and they started off at once.
The boys staid but a moment in
the poor little home.
"Gee!" said Harold, as they started
toward home, "Barefooted in March."
"And there wasn't a thing in the
cupboard," said another.
"Let's ask Miss Wolcott to come
and help us fix them up," said Lester,
"I'm not very good at washing dirty
little kids' faces. What do the rest of
you say?"
"I wish that we could do it all our
selves," said Harold thoughtfully.
"Harold has a scheme," said Les
ter.
"Yes, I have and I want to talk to
father about it."
Harold spoke to his father that
evening.
"You see,father,"he said; "I thiuk
that the i ight way to help people is to
help tl.em to help themselves."
The man smiled down very indul
gently at tho earnest lad.
"What had you thought of, my
son?"
"Well, I hardly know, but I have
wondered if they could not do some
thing to pay the rent on our cottage.
There are three acres of land there
and those boys could raise chickens
aud vegetables."
"That is quite a grown-up plan for
such a little lad. Talk it over with
the rest of the boys and see what they
can suggest."
A meeting was held in the school
room the next evening. The boys
suggested and discussed until the
room was almost dark.
"What does Caleb's mother do?"
asked one boy.
"She makes vests,"said a palo little
fellow in the corner.
"Gone from homo all day, I sup
pose," said Harold.
"Yes."
"Our housokeeper says it's worth a
dollar a week to keep my clothes
mended," said Lester. "What do
you fellows say to hiring Caleb's
mother to keep us mended up until
we think of something better?"
It was agreed to by all the boys,
and the big family was trausferied to
the pretty suburban cottage.
"Say, Caleb's mother can't saw
wood,"said one of tho boys some days
later.
"Well, we can," said Harold.
"And that gurdenmust be plowed,"
said another.
"I'll work-at home for James and
he will bring the plow and do a first
class job at that. He said ho would,"
said Lester.
Caleb slowly recovered from the
fever which was the result of the fire.
The boys did not have much time to
give to him, but their mothers and
sisters aud Miss Wolcott did. There
wore walks to repair, a pump to mend
a shed to be converted into a hen
house, aud the garden to make. Tho
schoolboys and Caleb's brothers did
the work.
James lent his plow and his experi
ence to the lads, and there never was
a thriftier garden than the one which
greeted Caleb's delighted eyes wheu
he "came home" from the hospital one
Mny morning. And his mother stood
in tho door—his mother—her hair
neatly combed, a dainty white apron
over her pretty dress, and a hint
of the roses of long ago in her toil
worn cheeks.
The next summer Caleb told the
boys that he and his brothers were
making enough to live upon.
"And pay tho rent, too?" said Les
ter.
"Yes, and pay the rent, too. You
can give your mending to help some
one else, now."—Advocate.
Music Wards Off Fatigue.
A Philadelphia contractor, who has
recently returned form the Soudan,
tells of an interesting fact connected
with the building by the English of
the new military railroad in that
region. With every gang of 40 or 50
men are assigued two harpers and a
flute player. Music is furnished al
most continuously, and so long as tho
musicians play the workmen—nearly
all negroes—do not seem to feel tho
fatiguo, and their movements are con
formed as nearly as possible to the
time if the music. As a general thing
the players get tired before the work
men do. To a white man the melody
produced by these cheerers of labor
would not be inspiring, for it is
peculiarly plaintive. The Africans,
howe\er, find the music a great in
spi ation, and work with cheefulness
and disj a'ch. Tho Philadelphiun
declares that the idea is one woll
worth considering, for it is well known
that colored laborers aud stevedores
along the river front will work harder
aud faster if permitted to sin-. As a
matter of fact, siuging among them
is encouraged.— Philadelphia Record.
:: FOR WOMAN'S BENEFIT.::
Novel Collar Hucltle.
A collar buckle strongly appealing
to lovers of novelties is made of gold
having the appearance of being cast
and relieved by bright cuttings. The
design consists of a series of scrolls.
The centres contain two large tur
quoises.
Lace Scarf* for the Hair.
Now that lace has been worn or
every conceivable garment from ho
siery to hats the fashion makers an
nounce that an old custom is to be re
vived and veils of lace are to be worn
with evening dresses. These veils
are twisted to fit the head in front,
but mast not hide the hair; a deft
hand can arrange tho folds so that they
will fall in a flimsy cloud to the shoul
ders. The lace is said to make a
charming background for the wearer's
bead.
Roia Bonhenr'n Costumes.
There is a widespread impression
that the late liosa Bonheur was in the
habit of wearing men's attire. This
is only partially true. She dressed as
a man while at work in her studio, be
cause this gave her greater freedom
of action while working on her can
vases, which were often of large size.
In pursuit of her studies for horses,
her favorite subject, she also found
this costume convenient. At home,
on the street aud in the usual walks
3f life she wore a plain black dress,
without adornmeut of auy sort. When
going out she donned a plain black
bonnet aud became simply a rather
large woman, noticeable only for the
strength of her features aud the keen
penetration of her dark eyes. She was
iond of wearing the ribbon of the Le
gion of Honor.
When Should Girl* Wear Veils?
At what age should a girl begin to
ft'ear a veil? There is as much differ
snce of opinion on this point, as on
that other vital question, "When
should a girl put her hair up?" Meu
seem as much to regret the donning
Df a veil by a girl as they do the put
iing up of hair. Whether it is bo
3ause it stamps the wearer as coming
to womanly dignities or because it
hides something of a pretty face,there
is no knowing, but most probably it
is for the latter reason.
But there are many uses to a veil.
It is now aud then recommended for
weak eyes; it is excellent as a slight
respirator for girls with delicate
jliests; it keeps the skin from chap
ping in rough weather, and, be it said,
itreully does, iu nine cases out of ten,
enhance the beanty it half conceals.
\ girl may wear a veil when she puts
.ip her hair. The one fixes the date
for the other. A girl with her hair
3own her back aud weariug a veil looks
•other absurd, except iu most excep
tional cases.
Fabrics* for Winter Dresses.
The autumn display of plaids at
tracts the usual udmiriug throngs of
women who never wear these gay and
wintry looking fabrics, although they
"consider" them every year and have
lieeu doing so for several generations.
Duce iu a while a courageous woman
ippears in one of the sliaggy Scotch
mixtures, but she is the target for
Dther women's curious gazes when she
ippenrs, just as if the non-wearers of
plaid had not been accustomed to be
ing introduced to it afre-h every au
minn as far back as they can remem
ber.
The colors of the new plaids are
3ull grays, bronzes and reds, with
stripes of deeper or lighter shades of
;he same color, or of yellow, black,
ivhite or scarlet. The familiar greens
»nd reds, which formed the basis of
most winter plaids, are not seen this
seasou. Rough, hairy surfaces are
eery sraavt aud extremely becoming iu
I gown made for a slender figure. The
aap on some of these fabrics is three
jr four inches long. Silk, velvet aud
wool are mingled with rich effect in
some of the winter dress goods. Wool
goods with fiat spots of grenadine
ind cashmeres dotted with silk aud
satin faced cloths with velvet dots
woven into them are all novelties.
These fancy fabrics are to be made up

I>let nfi »n Aid to Ilenuty.
A woman who says she has never
from any unpleasant experience
Known what it was to have a stom
ich lives almost entirely on ba
nanas. It is a taste inherited, she
•ays, from her father, who spent many
years in a banana country and learue I
ihere to like them and consider them
a valuable article of food. Like his
daughter, ho never experiences those
Sroubles which are the undoing of so
many Americans, aud he also credits
It to bananas. The first craving of the
laughter in the morning is for a ba
nana, and wheu she rings the bell the
maid knows what is wanted and takes
i couple of bananas to her room.
These she eats before she completes
tier toilet, and goes down to breakfast
;o find two more beside her plate.
These, with possibly a cup of prepared
soffee, complete her i reikfast.and she
thrives on the diet. She has a pretty,
soft complexion aud a comfortable
plumpness. The only trouble is that
iway from home there is sometimes
difficulty - in obtaining bananas, and
:heu she suffers. This inc. nveuieuce
aas made her think of breaking up
the habit, but the diet is so simple
find so satisfactory that it seems fool
ish to do so. Dates are also a staple
irticle of food with her. But while
this is well suited to her, it is not to
other members of the family. While
they are not so comfortably unoon
[ scions of that important organ, *h«
stomach, they are more conscious thuu
aver of it if they undertake a banana
diet. A doctor says that if bauauas
can be eaten, there is nothing which
gives more nutriment, but all people
cannot eat them without ill effects.
First Presidential Wedding*
The administration of President
Tyler saw four different feminine heads
to his house in less than'four years,
Mrs. Letitia Christian Tyle-, the
first wife of this tenth president, died
in the White House Heptember, 1842,
and was succeeded by her daughter
in-law, Mrs. Robert Tyler, and her
daughter, Mrs. William Semple, until
June of 1844, when President Tyler
marri.d Miss Julia Gardner of New
York, a beautiful young girl of 20,
who had beon much admired in Wash
ington the winter before, and whose
father was one of the victims of the
explosion of the gun called "The
Peacemaker" on the man-of-war
Princeton during a pleasure trip of
the president and friends down the
Potomac.
The marriage of a president while
in office had never occurred before,
and except in the case of ex-President
and Mrs. Cleveland, has never oc
curred since, and naturally was an
event of much importance. The cere
mony, which, by reason of the mot n
ing of the youthful bride, was very
simple, took place in New York city,
and was attended by a very small com
pany. Young Mrs. Tyler made friends
readily, and was for her short season
quite as popular as that second White
House bride whose destiny it was to
return a second time to the scenes of
her greatest glory.
One of the last acts of President
Tyler was to give a farewell ball, Feb
ruary 22, 1844, just before his re
tirement from office, in honor of his
young wife, and many were the atten
tions bestowed upon her. This func
tion, which was one of the great balls
of the day, was the last dance to be
given in the east room, and marked
the passing of the cavalier, who, from
its beginning, had dominated the so
cial tide of the nation. Mrs. Tyler
opened the ball with the secretary of
war, cabinet ministers not disdaining
to be dancing men in thoso days.
Mrs. Julia Gardner Tyler spent
most of her married life in Richmond,
but for a number of years after her
husband's death lived quietly in
Georgetown.—Washiugton Star.
Atliletleg for Girl«.
The fault in the education of the
boy and girl of olden time was lack of
exercise in the open air. A "pale
cast of thought" marked them apart
from the uneducated lad and lass who
worked out of doors. The athletic
college boy of today is in marked
contrast to the typical clerk or s-cholar
of Chaucer's time, whom he describes
as "not right fat," but "looked hol
low." Old women of the present time
all remember when it was predicted
that a college education would wreck
the health of the American woman if
she attempted the experiment. At that
time the health of the American wom
an was in greater danger than it had
ever been he'ore, but it was not from
too much education -it WUR from too
much repression, too litt e life in the
fresh open air, too much life in close
sewing rooms. The sewing machine
was the greatest benefactor of woman
after the power loom. After the sew
ing machine came woman's work in
the house has been lessened a third,
and she had time for athletic train
ing. The first classes in "gymnas
tics" are about identical in time with
the advent of the machine. As soon
as more intelligent ideas on the sub
ject of education began to be preva
lent, it was inevitable that a proper
place would bi given to the physical
training of all young people—g rls and
boys alike. It could be easily shown
by statistics that there has been great
improvement in the health of women
since the last generation. The wom
an who laced herself, wore thin soled
shoes uud considered a consumptive
physique indicative of womanly deli
cacy, has given place to a nobler type
of woman. Theie is need fur physical
training for women in every village in
the land where it does not exist Girls
are generally weakened in health from
improper exercise, because they do
not know how to keep the laws ol
