    Disciplining 8
Junior 112
By VIRGINIA DUPLY HOLTON 1
Allan Wetherell smiled a grim re
sponse to his brother-in-law's cheery
greeting as the two men met on the
8:53 suburban train.
"What's 011 your mind, Al? Is your
favorite stock down this morning?"
Jennings bantered.
"Nothing so easy as that!" Wether
ell answered as they found seats to
gether. "Fact is, Hugh, I want -to
put Junior to work during his summer
vacation, and Barbara, so sweetly rea
sonable upon all subjects, actually sus
pects me of the cruelty of the prover
bial stepmother. Why, she acts like
a tigress defending its young every
time I speak of it!"
"And I take it that you mentioned
it this morning," Jennings observed
with a comical sidelong glance at his
companion.
"It is a sad commentary upon par
ents," Wetherell continued, disregard
ing the lighter vein of his brother-in
law's remarks, "but it would be better
for our children if they were away at
school all the year, instead of part
of it. Frankly, Hugh, 1 could manage
Junior all right alone, but to manage
his mother, too, is beyond my talent!"
"I see," said Jennings, grasping the
situation, but wondering that his wife,
who was Wetherell's sister, had
shown, in the bringing up of their boy,
now grown, none of that consummate
perfection in the art of training chil
dren that Wetherell so courageously
boasted of.
"I'll bet Lucy never interfered when
you tried to discipline Horace—now,
did she?"
A quick reflection upon the success
his own boy had turned out to be,
convinced Jennings that his wife had
lot interfered.
"No, I must confess that I carried
out practically all of my own ideas
in Horace's upbringing."
Unaccountably his brother-in-law' 3
admission did not bring the comfort
Wetherell had counted upon. Some
how the words sounded offensively
smug.
Hang it all! Horace had never been

Above an Every-Day Affair.
a boy of much spirit, anyway! Ten
to one he had never needed any disci
plining!
"Junior gets home from school to
day. doesn't he?" Jennings inquired,
squaring himself to peruse his paper.
"Yes, he does, and instead of its
being the happy event it should be,
it threatens the harmony of the house
hold. Why, the young cub regards
his vacations as nothing more than
long, legitimate entertainments. Vn
fortunately for him. we have enough
to keep him in idleness and spending
money."
"Oh, I've known boys to emerge
from under even those handicaps,"
Jennings laughed.
"I suppose you refer to your own
offspring," the disgruntled Wetherell
replied. "I congratulate you to the
extent that you had no interference
froift a well-meaning but mollycod
dling mother!"
With the complacence of a man with
the credit balance on his side, Jen
nings again spread his paper before
him.
A moment later he was startled
from the contemplation of an article
by an explosive exclamation from
Wetherell.
"By Jove! I've an inspiration! T'll
get Lucy to help me win Barbara
over! I'll ask her to mention h»r
thankfulness that she left her boy's
hringing up to you. She might also
suggest something to the effect that
fathers naturally understand boys
b<nter--that with little girls it is dif
ferent."
Wetherell's face had already bright
ened with the idea. His spirits took
a mercurial leap.
"I've a notion to take the next
tral/i back and get Lucy togo over
to see Barbara before Junior gets
home."
"Oh, no! no. I wouldn't d« that!
Jennings quickly protested.
"Why not?"
"Because —because," Jennings be
gan lamely, "never take any impor
tant step without mature considera
tion." he finished.
"Nonsense, man! That's good* aA
vice for some cases, but it doesn't
apply to this one. I've a better idea
yet. I'll telephone Lucy the ininuto
I get. to the oflice!"
"What's the use of being in such a
hurry about it?" Jennings demanded,
now openly exasperated
Wetherell looked at him in surprise.
"Why, what are you so worked up
over?"
"I'll tell you what," Jennings laid
his hand upon Wetherell's arm as
though to detain him, "just leave it
to me and I'll fix it for you. I'll see
that Barbara gets *he advice if I have
to give it to her invself." he declared,
implying a magnanimous sacrifice
upon his own part.
Their conversation quickly veered
in another direction as a fellow sub
urbanite joined them.
That night as Wetherell rounded
the corner that brought his house into
view, his spirits mounted in anticipa
tion of seeing his boy.
And when the click of his key in
the door brought a veritable yoting
athlete in appearance, pouncing upon
him with childish affection, Wetherell
forgot the deaded issue in the sublim
ity of that moment.
As he regarded the handsome, boy
ish face before him, with its fearlessly
frank eyes, he came more nearly than
ever before to an understanding of
his wife's tender solicitude for the
boy.
Barbara's kiss and smile of wel
come seemed if anything a little hear
tier than usual this evening, as though
doubly anxious that all should be in
happy accord.
Even the dinner attained to a rank
above an every-day affair. Ellen, the
cook, adored the boy who had, in
years gone by, plundered her sweet
meats at the most inopportune mo
ments and tantalized her in every con
ceivable way. Nevertheless, in his
years away at school, her happiest
time had been when preparing the
contents of a "feast box" to be sent
him.
Tonight there appeared in goodly
array all of Junior's favorite dishes,
with Ellen carefully scanning his plates
upon their return to the kitchen, and
a solicitous inquiry from the serving
maid as to how "Master Junior" was
enjoying himself. Of this he assured her
in person at the end of the meal.
Then he joined his parents for a
chat. Flinging himself upon the couch,
piled with pillows, he exclaimed:
"Gee, but this is the the first real
soft place I've lain on since I left
here"
"Why, was your bed at school
hard?" Mrs. WethereU's motherly in
stinct instantly asserted itself.
"Well, they're not exactly like this,
mother. But you could hardly expect
that!"
"I told you I ought to have gone
back with him and settled him, Al
lan!" casting a glance of mingled re
gret and reproach toward her hus
band.
Suddenly Junior spoke:
"Say, folks, do yon know what I'm
going to do this summer?"
Wetherell felt a gloomy apprehen
sion settle upon him. The achieve
ment of disciplining his son during
this vacation seemed suddenly de
feated.
"Xo, what, dear?" It was his moth
er who answered. Her voice was of
a syrupy sweetness that already im
plied her assent.
"I'm going to work!" the boy an
nounced.
His father, after the first startled
moment of comprehension, experi
enced a pang of remorse, known only
to a father who has underestimated
a son.
While Ill's mother, with the sensi
tiveness of a weathervane to the
slightest change of wind, shifted her
attitude to meet the prevailing mood
of her boy.
"So you think you would like to try
your wings a little, do you, dear?"
His wife's tone of docility ama7ed
Wetherell no less than his son's
words.
T T pon reaction, however, his brain
fairly sang a paean of joy! By Jove!
a boy that could be trusted to disci
pline himself was a wonder!
The proud father was even consid
ering an automobile aa a reward for
such virtue, when his cherubic off
spring spoke his answer:
"It's not exactly that," he explained,
"but you see I'm up for a certain frat
at school and they've put up the stunt
that in order to qualify we've got to
work for two months during our va
cation!" —Mother's Magazine.

"The doctors are to operate

"What's wrong?"
"Something about the coat of her

"I hope they don't find it out of

"Bobby, what was the preacher's

"Something about its being easier

"I did."
"How deep is It?"
"About three feet at high water."
CHILDREN ON BLOCK
HIGH EST BIDDER GETS THEM IN
A BAVARIAN MARKET.
' Farmers Lease Offspring of Poor Peas
ants for Hard Work on Farm
During the Summer
Months.
Berlin. —The annual "child market"
! In Frlederichshaven, in Bavaria, has
\ just been held. Boys and girls—little
i white slaves they are —were leased
i out for the summer. The scenes
around the market place resembled a
page from "Uncle Tom's Cabin."
"I'll give 150 marks for him!"
"I bid 175!"
"200 bid!"
"210 bid!"
I "226 bid!"
The competition was keen, for the
boy was a sturdy-looking lad. Despite
his poverty-stricken appearance, he
seemed to be stronger and healthier
than many of the other children.
Around him swarmed a score of peas
ant farmers scanning the child as
they would the points of a horse.
There was little sentiment in their de
meanor. It was "business." They
were buying him, to be exact, "leas
ing" the boy. They expected to make
a "profit" on their investment, hence
they did not want a boy who possibly
would be ill and could not work hard.
He was "knocked down" at 240 marks,
or $1)0. The next boy was younger;
he lacked the robustness of the oth
er lad; he was pale, thin and did not
look as if he ever had a full meal.
He went at S3O.
The Austrian steamer Maria The
resa had brought 125 boys and thirty
girls, ranging in ages from eleven to
sixteen years, across the Boden sea.
They were quartered at the Golden
Wheel hotel, an appropriate place for
this children's lottery. Orphans, half
orphans and children of poor peasants
in the Austrian Tyrol region, who
thereby profit a little, are turned over
to the Tyrolean Children's society,
which in turn leases them out for the
summer months.
More than 500 peasant farmers
from Wurtemburg, Baden. Hohenzol
lern and the Bavarian region along
the i'.oden sea, were on hand to "bid"
for these youthful wage slaves. Com
petition was keen. The demand this
year was greater than the supply, and
prices considerably higher than last
spring were offered for the labor of
the children for the summer. The
children had nothing to say about
their fate, whether they liked the
looks of the "lessee" or not. The
"market" was held under the auspices
of Rev. Mr. Bairn of the Tyrolean
Children's society, who had charge of
them for the society.
From daylight to dark and after the
children labor, which in South Ger
many means about 17 or 18 hours
daily. It is only natural that the
"lessees' " chief Interest is to get as
much out of them as possible. What
the fate of some of the children is. is
indicated by the Tyrolean Grenz
boten, a paper which has started an
agitatioii against this "child market."
It says:
"The children return to their
parents and homes October 28, if they
do not fall a victim to the heavy la
bor, long hours, intense longing for
father, mother and brothers and sis
ters in the summer, and are buried
in the regions where they were
leased.'
"We ask, in what land or country
would the authorities permit such a
'slave trade' to exist? That many of
these children have a hard time of it
under the strangers to whom they
have been leased is evident from ihe
fact that the Children's society has a
number of farmers on its blacklist to
whom they refuse to 'lease' children
again. But what good does that do
the little ones whom they have ruined
physically and morally?"
The Morgenpost of lierlin also mar
vels that the authorities of Bavaria,
Wurtemburg and Baden would toler
ate dealing In "little slaves."
HIDES IN A SHIP'S BOILER
Fugitive From Justice in Flight From
Honolulu Narrowly Escapes Be
ing Boiled Alive.
San Francisco, Cal. —August Car
reria came into port the other morn
ing oti the steamer Lurline and
eluded live detectives front 8 o'clock
until noon at the risk of being boiled
alive in the boiler of the vessel's don
key engine.
Wanted at Honolulu for the al
leged betrayal of a girl under prom
ise of marriage, Carreria
the night before, when the Luriine
neared shore. Captain A. AlcDuffy of
the Hawaiian police force, here on a
vacation, boarded the ship at quaran
tine with a cabled warrant for Car
reria's arrest, and Detectives Conlon,
Mackey, Bierman and Cronin of the
local department accompanied him.
They had searched everywhere
from from the captain's cabin to the
coal bunkers and decided that Car
reria had Jumped overboard. Then
McDufTey's eye lit on the donkey en
gine used for handling cargoes in
port. The boiler was Just large enough
to conceal one man and McDuffy
looked into it. Carreria crawled out
and surrendered. He will go back
to the islands on the first boat.
Steam from the big boilers below
decks is usually turned into the boil
er that hid Carreria as soon as the
Lurline enters port. It would have
'calded Carreria to death iu thirty sec
■>nda.
THIEVES LOOT HOUSE
THEN THEY BATTLE OVER DIVI
SION OF SPOILS.
French. Count's Apartment the Seen®
of a Rough and Tumble Fight Be
tween Companion Burglars
Who Ransacked Rooms.
Paris. —A burglary with a strange
sequel has taken place at the town
house of Count Houssy de Salles, on
the Boulevard Haussmann. A number
of persons were passing the place in
the evening when there wns an outcry
from within and several arms stretch
ed out of a window wrenched off a
shutter that had been closed.
Scarcely had the clatter of the shut
ter on the sidewalk subsided when
two men Jumped out of the window.
One of them carried a statuette which
fell from his arms as he alighted and
was smashed to pieces.
"It is nothing, a mere quarrel and
they are fighting and tearing every
thing to pieces." he said to the crowd
that had by that time assembled,
pointing back toward the count's man
sion.
No one made the faintest effort to
detain the. pair and they Jumped on a
passing tramcar. One of them was
compelled by the conductor to alight,
owing to the fact that his head and
wrist were bleeding from cuts he sus
tained while springing out of the win
dow. He soon vanished around a
corner and. no policeman appearing,
the crowd melted away.
On the count's return home he
found his rooms had be«n ransacked.
In a half-opened bureau drawer was
found a pooketboolc containing a cer
tificate of birth and other papers be
longing to a person whose name the
detectives recognized as that of a
noted ex-convict. They fairly shook
with laughter as they showed the
"find" at headquarters and told of the
extraordinary carelessness or forget
fulness of one of the burglars in hav
ing dropped such telltale evidence at
the scene of his crime.
There was some trouble In tracing
the crook, but he was Anally trapped
in his lodgings. He was astonished
at his capture, for he was certain he
had left no clues at the count's. When
told his pocketbook had been found
in a bureau drawer, he smiled and
drew forth his pocketbook from a hid
ing place in his blouse. The detective
opened the book and 10, the fellow's
birth certificate and the other papers
recovered at the count's were missing.
The crook looked stupefied for a min
ute. Then he said: "I see it all now.
1 am a victim of Gasparin's plot."
Then he confessed that one of his
companions in the robbery was a no
torious pickpocket. The latter, when
arrested, explained that he and the
crook already under arrest had quar
reled at the count's over a division of
the spoils and that, in a moment of
fierce anger, he picked his compan
ion's pocket, put the purloined birth
certificate, etc., in his own wallet
and dropped it in the bureau, then
quickly returned his associate's pock
etbook to its owner's pocket without
(he owner's knowledge or suspicion.
IN HUNT FOR TALL HORSES
Scientists Digging In Old Quarries of
Texas for Remains of Prehis
toric Animals.
Silverton, Texas. —A hunt for giant
horses, some of them measuring more
than, thirty feet tall, is now in prog
ress in this part of the Texas Panhan
dle.
Ranch people are stirred up ovet
the excavation that has been started
at a spot on Prairie Dog creek, Jus)
north of Silverton. by an expedition
of scientists sent out by Yale unl
versify. This party is headed by
Richard 8. Lull, professor of verte
brate paleontology of that institution
They are digging for the fossils ol
prehistoric horses. It is said by Pro
fessor Lull that all evidence that has
accumulated tends to show that th«
horse of today had its origin in thesf
long extinct animals that once roam
ed the expansive plains in the Texas
Panhandle.
Discoveries of bones that are ela9
sifted as belonging to the prehistoric
horse have been made from time to
time in this section. Not a greai
while ago. in opening a gravel pit neat
Plainview, the fossils of an anima'
that scientists proclaim belong to thf
equine species were brought to light
and when placed together the height
of the skeleton measured more thar
100 hands. This relic of an unknowi
past was brought to light by R. M
Irick of Plainview. The hones of th(
animal were sent to the Smithsonian
institute at Washington.
The quarry now being exploited
turned out some rich finds In the waj
of bones of these ancient monsters 1i
1899, when the spot was visited an<
considerable expedition work wat
done by Professor James W. Gldley.
It Is the theory of Professor Dnfl
that in prehistoric times, when thes«
giant horses roamed the plains, ther«
was coincident with them a clvlllza
tlon of high standard in what is now
New Mexlxco and Arizona. The rulni
of the homes of these people are still
to be seen, and in some parts of the
arid region there has been discovered
the evidence of extensive systems of
irrigation. .
There are good reasons for believ
ing, according to Professor Lull, that
these giant horses, which had a height
of 30 to 40 feet, were often domesti
cated by the people of that day am.'

But eludes the swift pursuer.
FROZEN DISHES.
There Is no dessert which ever, takes
the place of ices and ice creams during
Ihe hot weather; they are not only re-
Ireshing but nourishing, and are so
universally well liked that one cannot
go amiss to serve them on all occa
sions.
The plain Philadelphia ice cream
may be used as a foundation for any
number of delightful combinations, for
example:
Nougat Ice Cream. —Add a half cup
ful each of chopped Alberts, walnuts
and almonds with a teaspoonful each
of almond and vanilla extract. One
can buy the plain cream all frozen in
many places so reasonably, and it can
be repacked with any additions of fruit
or nuts, making the work very light.
The flavor of peach is given by put
ting two cups of strained peach pulp
and a teaspoonful of lemou Juice to
plain ice cream.
A delicious flavor of almonds is giv
en to ice cream in this manner; Blanch
and chop a cup of almonds, carmellze
four tablespoonfuls of sugar and add
the almonds. When cold grind to a
powder, add to the cream with a tea
spoonful of almond extract.
The most delicious of creams is
made by adding two cups of squeezed
nnd strained raspberries to the cream.
The color Is enhanced by the addition
of a teaspoon of lemon Juice.
A pretty and easy , way to make
fancy dessert is raspberry bombe:
Bine a melon mold with raspberry ice
and fill with vanilla ice cream or with
a pineapple ice or ice cream. Pack in
ice and salt and let stand four hours.
Serve with whipped cream or garnish
with fresh berries and leaves.
Sultana Roll.—This Is a great favor
ite and can be made without the use
of liquor. Line one pound baking pow
der cans with pistachio ice cream (this
is plain creatu with the chopped nuts
frozen in it). Sprinkle with candied
fruit that has stood over night in
sweetened and flavored whipped
cream. Pack as usual. Serve with
the sauce in which the fruit has stood
over night.

HOT WEATHER DISHES.
A fetching and appetizing salad is
this: Lay a slice of chilled pineap
ple on a lettuce leaf, heap a nicely sea
soned spoonful of cream cheese in the
center and sprinkle with chopped pe
cans, peanuts or pistachio nuts. Serve
with French dressing.
German Salad. —Boil a white, solid
head of cabbage until perfectly ten
der; drain carefully and put to press
between two weights until quite cold.
Then slice and place in a salad bowl
with half a dozen cold boiled potatoes
cut in slices, a sliced beet, and half
H dozen hard cooked eggs cut in slices,
a finely chopped onion, and a quarter
of a sour orange; mix gently. Have
ready a cupful of tartar sauce, season
with salt, pepper, mix again and
serve with any cold roast. A drop or
two of tabasco sauce is an improve
ment.
Tartar Sauce. —Mix a tablespoonful
of vinegar, a teaspoonful of lemon
juice, a quarter of a teaspoonful of
salt, a tablespoonful of Worcestershire
sauce in a bowl and heat over hot wa
ter. Brown a third of a cup of but
ter in an omelet pan and add to the
first mixture.
Fried Tomatoes With Cream Sauce.
—-Cut tomatoes in halves without peel
ing, season with salt, pepper and roll
in very fine crumbs. Fry in hot fat
until brown, then take up carefully
with a pancake turner and arrange on
a chop plate. Add a tablespoonful of
drippings to the fat already in the pan,
stir in a tablespoonful of flour and as
soon as it bubbles add a cup of rich
milk. Stir until Bmooth and pour
around the tomatoes.
Oatmeal Drink.—Mix a tablespoonful
of fine oatmeal into a smooth paste
with water, then pour over three pints
of boiling water, stirring all the time.
Place over the heat and boil until re
duced to two pints. Set aside to cool,
and pour the clear gruel from the sedi
ment. Add to this the juice of a lem
on and sufficient sugar to sweeten.
Serve cold.
Lemon Fizz.—Grate yellow rind
from three lemons, squeeze the juice
of six, pour over two quarts of boiling
water, stir in a half pound of sugar,
and a half yeast cake. Let stand over
night. Bottle, and it Is ready for use
In a day.
