Faith.
A mother in one of the suburbs of
New York, wishing to preparu the
minds of her two children for a coming
event of great importance, told them
that if they would like to have a little
brother or sister she thought if they
prayed earnestly every night and morn
ing God would send them one.
In due time the desired baby urrlved,
to the children's great delight and evi
dently to the strengthening of their
faltli, for the next duy the father came
Into his wife's room, saying:
"Look here, Lizzie, this thing has got
to stop. I just went Into the purler and
found both those children on their
knees praying as hard as they could
for goats!"— New York Times.
Airy I'lTNlfliigv ut Sea.
The ship groaned.
Put the giddy young thing who was
talking to the captain was a good sail
or and didn't mind a bit of rough
weather.
"Doesn't it seem unnecessarily cruel,
captain," she said, "to box a com
pass?"
"Not any more so, miss," he replied
grimly, "than to paddle a canoe."
And the ship groaned soin<i more.—
Chicago Tribune.
The Lacking Stroke.
"Do you think it would Improve my
style?" inquired the varsity man who

lytic stroke."—Tit-Bits.

band of black velvet encircles the
trown, and a big gold buckle orna
ments the front, l'lnk roses ure placed
next the hair under the brim, and long
loops and streamers of black velvet
hang down the back.—New York Mail
and Express.
Llnlufcw For White Drensei,
The question of u lining Is a perplex
ing one to the woman who dresses In
white, for the lining costs more than
the gown, and to line a fifteen cent cot
ton means something when viewed
from the standpoint of the pockctbook.
As for the lining, it Is a matter that
cannot be Ignored. All or very nearly
all of the summer goods nro transpar
ent and the lining Is distinctly visible,
painfully so sometimes.
Of course it Is possible to use the
plain cotton linings, just as one would
with any other gown, but these lin
ings do not show up well, nnd they udd
nothing to the beauty of the dress.
If you cannot afford to line well,
then do not get a transparent dress, so
the modistes adyise. And they send
their customers hack to exchange dress
patterns that show the lining too plain
ly.
Adaptable Yachting; Coitrnne*.
The dressmakers and tailors hare
this year made yachting costumes that
are ulso suitable for traveling and
walking. These have an etamlne or
mohair skirt and a waist of different
material—satin foulard, checked silk,
India silk or batiste. These are not
the familiar waists with plaited front
and pointed yoke buck, a style rele
gated to various fancy cottons and
wash silks, but are made In rather
fanciful fashion with a fluffy front, a
Gibson or seamless French back, bell
sleeves with small puffed undersleeves
and a girdlelike finish that is not too
wide to give a slender effect.—New
York Evening Post.
A Simple Blouse.
The blouse given In the sketch is of
black and white figured foulard. The
collar piece is made with straps and
edged with two narrow white bauds of
BLACK AND WHITE FOULARD.
taffeta, from under which comes white
taffeta ribbon tied in a pretty bow,
with the ends incrusted with lace de
signs. The chemisette and collar band
are of filet lace, and the cuffs are made
to match the collar piece.—Philadel
phia Ledger.
FuHlilonublc Tliliifc In Neckwear.
If you can secure a lace neck yoke
with a high standing collar attached
to It, you will have the most fashion
able thing going in the way of neck
wear. The stocks come In both black
and white lace, and the upper edge
may be finished with a narrow black
cord or with the smallest of chiffon
ruches.
While the standing lace stocks lead
iu favor, there are others. One of these
Is the stock composed of folds of silk
neatly laid one above the other. At the
throat there is a bow of silk with lace
ends. This, while not strictly novel, is
very much worn.
On Snmmer Hnta.
Fruit and fruit nnd blossoms are seen
ou many of the summer hats. Currants
are first favorite. The harmonies of
tints are wonderful. Blue and mauve
are becomingly blended, and roses are
made In every possible shade, eendre
gray being a favorite hue.
TRAINING OF HORSES
CAREFUL HANDLING TO FIT THEM
FOR CIRCUS TRICKS.
Tlie Candidate For Ring- Honors
Munt Have Special Points Well De
veloped Horses Can Be Coaxed,
1,1 ke a Child, but ,\ot Forced.
"A trainer must possess two qualifi
cations bofore he can successfully ed
ucate a horse to do the tricks seen In a
circus—he must possess kindness and
perseverance.
"A veteran trainer selects his horses
with as much care as a society woman
plans a party gown. The candidate for
the future applause of the circus going
people of the world must be handsome
in color, as near perfect as possible In
conformation and possess an even tem
perament His eyes must be large and
devoid of the least trace of vicious
ness, be must bold his ears pointed
slightly forward, and he must have a
sensible looking head, broad between
the eyes. Horses that lay back their
ears at the approach of a man, who
nip viciously at every passerby and
whose eyes plainly demonstrate a
mean disposition are discarded. A
trainer will handle 110 nnlmal of this
kind.
"Once the candidate Is selected he Is
shipped to the winter quarters of the
circus and usslgned to a comfortable
stall In a large, clean, well ventilated
barn tenanted by several hundred beau
ties of bis kind. Good buy and oats are
Ills 111 abundance, and for several days
lie is allowed to rest and become famil
iar with his surroundings. The trainer
visits him daily anil by speaking kind
ly und occasionally giving the animal a
hit of sugar gains his couildenco. After
u time the horse begins to whinny at
the approach of the trainer, and the
bond of friendship Is thus quickly ce
mented,
"Thou comes the first lesson. Tlio
cundldate Is Introduced to the training
ring constructed neur the burn and al
lowed to wander about at will. Ho
smells the sawdust, the pedestals and
the harness and ropes that will soon
be buckled übout bis body aud then,
horselike, lies down 111 the center of the
ring aud enjoys a good roll.
"Next day he Is led around and
around the ring for several hours aud
soon understands that he is expected
to encircle the ring of his own accord.
Then a strap Is placed around his right
foreleg, and from this strap a rope Is
run through hurness fastened around
his body. The truiner grasps the free
end of the rope in one hand and a pair
of lines uttnehed to the horse's bridle
in the other. The animal Is told to
'get up,' nnd nfter the ring Is encircled
a few times the command 'whoa' is
given. If the horse refuses to obey, a
quick pull 011 the rope draws his leg
from under him, and he Is forced to
stop. Only u few demonstrations of
this kind are necessary to show the
horso that lie must stop when the com
mand is given.
"After those preliminaries arc satis
factorily accomplished the equine pupil
is taught to kneel first on one knee,
then 011 the other and finally on both.
All this is accomplished by drawing
up the front legs, one at a time, thus
forcing 111111 down. Ills knees are
padded to prevent injury, and every
time lie Is forced down the command
to kneel Is given, nnd the animal Is
petted nnd reassured with kind words
uutil finally he kneels nt the word.
"It Is In these preliminary lessons
that a good performer Is made or
spoiled. The Instructor must he firm
and resolute, but kind, always kind. A
horse Is like a child; you may coax
him, but you can't force without spoil
ing his disposition. The nulnial quick
ly notices any show of 111 temper or
roughness on the part of the Instructor
and resents It by becoming balky nnd
obstinate, lllows or linrsb punishment
only make him worse. You frequently
hear people assert that animals are
benten into submission in teaching
them tricks. People who say this never
saw the Inside of the training quarters
of a modern circus. A horse or any oili
er animal conquered In this way Is
never reliable nnd Is apt to spoil a per
formance by an outbreak of bad tem
per. besides being dangerous to handle.
"The next lesson for tbo horse is the
art of lying down aud remaining mo
tionless until the word Is given to rise.
This information Is Imparted to the
horse In a manner similar to tlie kneel
ing lesson. An ingenious harness
makes it possible for the traluer to
draw the horse down on a soft bed of
bay without injuring bim. When the
horse willingly lies down at the word
of command, ho is taught to sit upon
his haunches aud then Is gradually
drilled into tlie other tricks that al
ways draw applause from children aud
adults alike.
"It Is usually an easy matter to teach
a horso to stand upon a pedestal, to
waltz, rour on his hind legs and march
In unlsou with equine companions nft
er these simple lessons are thoroughly
learned and the horse understands the
trainer is his friend and not his enemy.
Tho horso of nvernge intelligence
learns quickly as soou as he realizes
what is required of him. The main
requisite on the trainer's part is pa
tience, and if a man hasn't got this,
and lots of It, ho had better keep out of
the business. If be gets excited or Im
patient nnd goes to hauling the horse
about unnecessarily, the animal Is sure
to become uneasy nnd fretful, nnd a
little experience of tbls kind will spoil
lilm.
"The better bred n borse ts the more
Intelligence It hns and the more npt It is
to make a good performer, provided it
has been knndled properly from colt
hood. All high bred homes, however,
are nervous and require kind treat
ment In order to Insure good results."—
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
FOR THE CHILDREN
Cnrlnff n MlHolitevonn Honker.
The late Duke of Richmond had his
hunters In Sussex. A monkey that was
kept In the stable was fond of riding
ou the horses, skipping from one to the
other and teasing them much. The
groom made a complaint to the duke,
who formed a plan to cure the mis
chievous monkey.
"If he Is so fond of riding," said his
grace, "we will give him enough of It."
A hunting dress was provided for the
monkey, and the next time the hounds
went out Jncko In his red coat was fas
tened by a strap to the snddle of one of
the best hunters. When the fox was
found, away tliey went through thick
and thin. The monkey's horse, carry
ing so light a weight, presently left all
the company behind. Some of the pnr
ty, passing by a farmhouse, asked a
countryman whether he hud seen the
fox.
"Aye, zure," said the man. "He be
gone over yon fallow."
"And was there any one up with
him ?"
"Whoy, yes," said John. "There be a
little man In a red jacket, riding like
mad. I hope the young gentleman has
not had a fall, but he rides monstrous
hard."
When the horse got back to the sta
ble, the poor monkey was nearly dead
and never wished to be on horseback
again.—Chatterbox.
Thonsrht Wool Cnme From Wolf.
The menagerie of the tenement house
child Is populated mostly with mythic
al animals. Cats, dogs and itinerant
goats are the only authentic specimens
of the four footed race he knows.
Therefore lie summons his imagina
tion to supply the defects of knowl
edge, and the result is sometimes sur
prising. An example of tills occurred
some time ago In a kindergarten at the
west side branch of the University Set
tlement.
Little Fubio, a bright little Italian
boy, cnme rushing Into the classroom
fairly beaming with joy.
"I got wool gloves," he announced,
proudly producing from a ragged pock
et a diminutive pair of red mittens,
which he exhibited to his admiring
friends.
"Fubio," said the teacher after the
first burst of envy had subsided, "I
wonder if you can tell where that soft
wool comes from."
Fabio paused a moment and wrin
kled ills brow in deep thought.
"I know!" he exclaimed suddenly, a
wave of inspiration passing over his
countenance. "Wool conies from the
wolf, of course."—New York Tribune.
Flnft'llNli Signs In .Inimn.
Hero are some curious English signs
In the windows of shops in Japan:
"The all countries boot and Blioe small
or fine wares," "Old curios," "Horse
shoe maker instruct by French horse
leech," "Cut hair shop," "If you want
sell watch, I will buy; If you want
buy watch, I will sell; yes, sir, will,
all will; come at my shop—watchmak
er," "Hatter native country," "Auto
matic of nausea marina," "The house
build for the manufacture of all and
best kinds of huts and caps."
Mnrj- Mixed Her Words.
Mary was a very bright little girl
who often fixed hard words In her
mind by their similarity to some ob
ject. One day when reciting lier geog
raphy lesson she informed her teacher
that ma-pig-any was one of the chief
exports of South Americn.
Tills method of aiding memory is not
confined to children. A school was
nearly convulsed with laughter once 011
hearing the teacher address a new boy
whose name was Hewitt as "young

If a nail is made redliot. It glows
with the ignition and throws oil heat,
which is apparent to the senses; but if
a cold horseshoe nail is examined,
there Is 110 direct evidence of the pres

cold nail is rapidly hammered 011 an
anvil, enough heat is obtained to set
fire to a piece of phosphorus. The heal

Figures In Ilellef of on EBST.
Design on an eggshell some pretty
figure or ornament with melted tallow
or any fat, oily substance; then im
merse the egg In very strong vinegar
and let it remain there till the acid
has corroded that part of the shell
which is not covered with the greasy
matter. When taken out, those parts
will remain in relief exactly as you
have drawn them.

Little Tommy, when told that ho
was growing fast, answered:
"Yes, too fast. I think they water
me too much. Why, I have to take a
bath every morning!"
