Cali fornia may now look for an unprece dented crop of forgers. The Australian blacks do not allow a mother-in-law within a mile of her married daughter's hut. Here's a bon boiichu for the funny man. Mary Machine says, "I was born to bo alone." It Is plain from this that Mary plays upon the piano. When the ollice takes the trouble to A Kentucky girl who has had 1150 of fers of marriage has decided to remain single and devote her life to musle.

A Now Jersey Inventor has produced a fuel which he calls "coalite," that can bo sold for $1 a ton. As Its principal Ingredient Is eoal dust, It may bo that It will give the eoal barons a new way to turn an honest penny Instead of driving them out of business.

The report says that nearly a thousand municipalities lu Creat Milt nlu own water-workH; about a hundred own street railways; many more own Bus workH. .Speaking Keuerally, the eoiiKiil limit that municipal government In the kliiKdoin Is honest, Intelligent unil energelle, and, as a rule, political considerations have little to do with the engagement or retention of civic cmployeH. This Is a story for boys. It Is not exactly "a Sunday school story." but It lias the right hort of good ring to It Just the same. Krauk I'revost, of To ledo, Ohio, drives a delivery wagon, He Ih a pleasant and neeoniinoiliitlng lad and when au old gentleman asked If he could ride about tho city with lilm, Kniuk readily assented. After uu hour's drive the stranger asked Frank to go to u t-aloon ami have a drink, The boy declined, ttaylng he never drank. The old man asked If ho chewed tobacco ami upon receiving n reply lu the negative offered tho lsy a cigar, which he also decline. That Is thu tlrst chapter. The old mini who rode with the delivery boy was that eccentric millionaire. Mr, lllggluson, of Nan FrunclHCo. lllgglnson, wherever lie k'och, In looking for boys like Frank I'revost, Hefore leaving Toledo tho iiilllloiialro went to Frank and present ed lilm with ?-',HH lu bank uotes, which the Iwy will use to start In business for himself. The moral Ih plain. It pays to bo pleasant and nceomuuMhuliig, even to nlniugen. U pays to have it good moral character. You may not be asked to give a millionaire lu dUguUo a lift, Ami again, you may, for lllggln. Ken Is always on his travels and always on tho lookout for boys. Hut whether you meet lllggliiMMi or not, there are others on tho lookout. Iteiuembei- haw lUogeuen went about the streets of Athens looking for it man) Well, the world la looking for a man. And the world usually llntls the man It Is look lag for In it hoy. You nmy not get $2,100 nil In n lump by being the right sort of n boy, bat the world will be glad to give It to you sooner or later. A story Is told of u wise mother, who,' 'When her small sou announced his Intention of running away from home because something had vexed him, met the announcement with calm acquies cence. Slio packed a small bundle for him to take away, suggested the next town as a good place to stay for the night, and added: "Of course, Harry, If you really want to go, you nmy; but you don't know how much I shall miss you." The youngster picked up his bundle, went slowly down the path to tlio front gate, opened It, then turned and ran for the house, where he Hung his arms about his mother's neck and burst Into tears. The treatment was not needed again. If that mother had met the hoy's plan with tears, re proaches, anger, or punishment, the chances are that she would either have had a spoiled child on her hands, or awakened some morning a few years later to Hud that her son had really run away. The sense of freedom Is a most valuable asset lu dealing with Young America. The child who Is continually thwarted In unimportant things gets lu the Imhlt of lighting for what he thinks are his rights, whether he Is Justlllcd lu the assumption or not. There are some children who are brought up on the principle that It Is ciunlly heinous to, tell a lie, to come Into the house without wiping one's feet, and to fall lu a lesson. Such chil dren are apt to develop a somewhat crooked moral perspective, which does not not always get straightened out lu years to come. Tho boy who llg ures lu the above story had read of runaways, and formed a not very dell- nlte Idea of the freedom and pcaco which such a course entails, lie had not thought about the other aspect of It at all. Ills mother brought him faco to face with the realities and let him choose for himself, at the same time In dicating clearly what she thought It was best for him to do. It did not take long for him to discover that she was wiser than he. For months a laughing hoy Iiiih been the bone of contention In a famous New York law suit. A husband and wife had parted. They viewed each oher as strangers ncross a trial table In a court room. There was no doubt about their love for the boy. It was pure gold. It should have made a wo man more tolerant, a man more forglv- I lit,'. Happy married folks can't un derstand how the mothers and fath ers of children can ever separate and learn to hate. In this case there wiih a groat deal of money on one side. It meant Hue clothing for baby, and nurses, rich food, carrlago drives and costly toys. Koine day It would mean a yacht, a valet, n prlvato car all of the things that can lie had for money. On tho other side tho mother's there was much love and very little money. It was possible that her Hon would bo compelled to work some day, and that he would be denied all sorts of comforts and luxuries that go with great Incomes. What a problem for the Judge! This Judge, wIioro mimo Ih Hlckpy, has sonic strange Ideas. He thinks that when married folks nro foolish enough to break up a relation that should mean peace and content meiit, It Ih the business of tho court to place the welfare of tho children above every other condition. That doesn't mean money always. Listen to the modern Solomon: "Tho boy needs the personal attention and tho loving care of his mother more than ho needs the money of his father, If the father Iiiih the affection for the child ho pro fesses ho will see that IiIh boy Ih clothed and fed wherever ho Is." In other words, a mother Is closer to her children than a father, and, for once, the law Iiiih recognized It. The Idea of the superior claim of a father to his children has received au olllelal set back. Where no tpieMlou of moral.-: Is Involved and when love and money are antagonists, Justice should throw her Influence on the side of hearts as against gold, llecause It Is best for the children. Hummock riwini;iiiir mi Art. The art of nwIukIu:; jnueefully lu a hammock Is aciiulrcd. It does not come naturally. It Ih on a par with learning to ride a hleycle or rowlnj; a hoat. It taken eonslderahle practice, much pres ence of mind and skill to hecome pro ficient. Awkward positions are easily taken while reclining or sitting lu limn mocks, and the most graceful may fall far short while In one of these most treacherous, though comfortable, ad juncts to a summer nutliu,". To make a pretty picture a young woman should perch lightly on the edge of the swing and poise herself easily. The only true way to recline Is to cross the feet gracefully and nl low her skirt to hang freely over the edge. Tho most trying ordeal for the hummock girl Is that of alighting from the swing, This Is always au embar rassing moment, but quickness mid a little dexterity will extricate the youug woman from the trying position. tJootl Country for Sauerkraut.
