A Word to Fathers. The Avalanche has received the cireular of the Louisville Military, Academy, located five miles South- east of Louisville. The principal is Colonel Robert D. Allen, formerly Superintendent of the Kentucky Military Institute, near Frankfort, Kentucky. He probably the | | | is in the It has long been a kind of vague theory that a boy's charac- Southwest. ter should be trained as well as his mind. This theory Colonel Allen has succeeded in reducing to prac- tice. Whilst developing the mind he watches the unfolding of the character with patient and vigilant care and caution. He learns the habits, ideas and natural disposition of every boy under his tuition. He encourages the good and in order to repress the bad he brings to bear di- rectly upon the boy himself every influence which his own ripe experi- ence and liberal and thoroughly trained mind can suggest. If he has any pride, any vanity, any predilec- tion, anything upon which he can play, he does so in order to root out any vicious inclinations and habits, and in order to encourage truth, industry and temperance. His pu- pils are essentially manly. An amus- ing illustration of his methods is frequently told by his old pupils, who are through the Southwest. He had a pupil upon whom he had exhausted his resoure- es. The boy was naturally kind and had no vicious habits. but an abse- lute lack of ability to apply himself mentally. Colonel Allen tried to work on his pride, his love for his parents, his cupidity. his fondness for baseball, skating and gymnastics. scattered One day he sent for him at an unus- He went with ried an assistant. him into a Tak- ing out a tape line he measured va- rious parts of the boy's head, call- ing out certain numbers for the as- sistant to write down.

Fi- nally the Colonel sent the assistant out of the room and studied the fig- ures for awhile, during which the boy’s fears became almost painful. Col. Allen then laid down the paper and placing his hand gently on the boy's head, he remarked: “My dear boy, I have done you a great injus- tice. Ihave been trying to force you to study when I see that nature has denied you the ability. Your studying organs are a complete blank. It is not your fault, but na- ture’s, that you will be a fool all your life. I must send you home.” The boy burst into tears and be- sought him to find some way of sav- ing him. Very reluctantly Colonel promised to undertake the task and not send him home if he would do exactly as he said. was given. The promise The least lack of indus- try was punished with a sorrowful shake of the head, and a task well learned was rewarded with expres- sions of hope of the possibility of a recovery. A fitting sequel was found in the fact that the boy became a good scholar. and is now some place applying the result of his tutorship which made him an_ honest and worthy, if not a brilliant member of society. Anecdotes of the methods adopt- ed to cure his pupils of lying, swear- ing and tht vices into which school- boys are apt to fall, could be indefi- nitely multiplied. He encouraged the closest intimacy between his pu- pils and himself, and whilst natural- ly of a dignified bearing, many a little fellow not yet in his teens found His old pupils go to him with the readi- ness of a school mate and he has some times gotten them with honor out of scrapes which pupils general- r teachers.

A Big Award For Three Fingers, The Superior Court heard the second trial of the case of James Harrigan against the Savannah, Flor- ida and Western Railway Company, and the jury gave the plaintiff a ver- dict for $4245. Harrigan was a car- builder, but went into the shop one day to make a hammer handle for a a fellow workman, a tinner, as the handles the company furnished did not suit the work the tinner was do- ing. While cutting out the handle at a circular saw Harrigan lost three fingers. He sued the company $10,000 and got a verdict for The company moved for a new trial, and it was granted, and Harrigan got another verdict. this time for $4245. The defense was that the company furnished handles and had issued a positive order to the men not to make their own handles, but to get them from the foreman. The plaintiff proved that, notwith- standing the order, the men contin- ued to make handles, and the fore man knew itand never stopped them, and, said one of the jurors, “it was the point that influenced the jury to givea verdict for the plaintiff.” —Sa- vannah News.

My wife is the daughter of a minister, and had never been in a theatre until she came to Boston with me, and I was to meet her and our hostess at the Park Theatre one night. By some mischance I was late, and flurried and disappointed. The two ladies were ushered down what seemed to the countrywoman an interminable aisle, to the third row of stalls from the front. My wife, sank into her seat, dropped her head at once devoutly upon the rail in front.

Many persons using Athlophoros for rheumatism and neuralgia ieee been surprised to find that chronic disorders of the liver and kidneys have also been greatly relieved and they have written for an explanation. remedy acts directly on these organs, cleansing the:n from all irritating sub- stances and regulating their action. Taken in connection with Athlophoros Pills this is, without exception, the most valuable kidney and liver remedy in the world, and will cure a large proportion of those who have these diseases. Charles F. Griffin, Stuart, Iowa, says: “JT have not had an ache or pain of rheu- matism since I used the Athlophoros, which is now over ayear ago. For three months my store was closed, not being able to at- tend to my business at all. My joints were swollen and there did not seem to be ay part of my body that did not ache. After suffering in this way until the pain was almost beyond endurance, I went to the Colfax Springs to try the effects of the water. The day I left home I had to be carried down stairs.
