ACIP TEST OF POLITENESS
Small Girl's Act Might Almost Bo
Said to Come Under the Head
of Heroism.
Frances was spending the day with
her friend Jane Watklns. She had
taken one spoonful of the soup says
Harper's Magazine when something
floating on top .caught her eye. Was
it black pepper or was it a black ant?
What should -she do with It?
At that moment Frances.' close
scrutiny of her soup attracted the at-
tention of Jane In a stage whisper
plainly heard -round the table "came
Jnhtfs "Oh mother! There's -an ant in
Frances' soup!"
That was it an unL Of course Mrs.
Watklns would take the soup away.
How relieved Frances was! -
"The very idea! An ant in her soup!
I. am surprised at you Jane I It is pep-
per!" said Mrs Watklns severely and.
she looked reproachfully at both girls.
Through Frances' mind Hashed all
the instructions on politeness she had
ever heard; never contradict your. eld-
ers; in. all circumstances he polite;
table manners show one's breeding.
What must she do? ; "Never contradict
your elders!" She spoke up at once
frying her best to make her tone posi-
tive: "Oh. yes!. I think it. is pepper."
"Of course 'It Is" said Mrs; Watklns
Frances stirred her soup hopinf
Jane's attention would be called away-
tliatshe might catch. the swimmer. and
transfer it to the dinner plate. IJut
there was no such luck. Up came the-;
speck more like an ant than ever." Pep
per was one speck; here were Iwr
specks close together. It was an ant
and1. Jane persistency -Itself leaned
over for one. more look and said:
;It Is an ant:
Frances glanced hopefully at the
heail of the table; hut Mrs. -Watklns
had not changed her opinion; It wak
pepper. "Be polite" ran through her
brain again and taking up the spoon-'
ful pf soup upon which that suspicion?;
double fleck floated. Frances settled
the' question forever before saying'
.faintly-:
"It was pepper. I know by the
taste" -
TYPICAL. OF : GOLDEN WEST
Little Montana Town of Willow Creek
Has Something of Which East
Cannot Boast.
. Wjlllaw Creek Is the .ordinary name
of-an ordinary small town In Montana.
Hear Creek Roundup and Sioux Pass
have more of the Western ilavoK but
WIRow -Creek Is a typical little West-
ern 'town in spite of ifs mime. It is
so in ihe midst of a vast tract of clean
prairie land that it cannot be measured
by. 'the yard-wide rule of cities. In
tile. distance towering .mountains keep
a. paternal watch over it.
I'ven when the early morning mists
hld the mountains and prairies. Wil-
low! Creek stands out spunkily a defi-
nite spot-op the landscape.. The sta-
tion near "the railroad tracks is very
sm;fll. quite square and very red. Taix-
uriant groves of trees fill the spaces
between the .pretty little white frame
houses. A road that looks clean-
swept shows to all comers a straight
and narrow way ranchward. Several
large Willows dip their fingers in the
current of the little creek that runs
behind the white houses. t -
As the trnln from the west stops a
few minutes at Willow-Creek in the
enriy dawn a middle-aged man swings'
off and starts down the road at a good
pace. One would know him nnywhare
for a mining man.
The metropolitan doing the transcon-
tinental trip may smile at little Willow
Creek 'from "his comfortable Pullman
but" there Is one thing here of which
the Fast cannot boa-t elbow room.
The great reaches of space are some-
thing unknown and bewildering to the
Eastern strap-lianger and cliff-dweller;
As the mining man swaggers down the
road toward his great "outdoors there
Is "something about him which spells
domain.
Beethoven's Courage. .
TJudwig von i'eethoven the eminent
eotriposer pianist who was born at
I'oipi Austria In 1770 was perhaps
one of tile greatest examples of pa-
tience ever known. At the ago of
thirty he was afflicted with deafness
yet struggled on completing master-pieces-jihd
living exclusively in his art
"CntH a Jtaphael be struck with -blindness'
In the full freshness of his pow-
ers Peethoven is without a compeer In
the history of all aes either In misery
or In bliss." So said his dearest
friend who. knew him during his years
of tiflHctfon arfd also success the hit-
ter of which came to him mostly In
Austria's capital.
Humorous Lapses.
Not every commencement spenker
has said precisely what he wished to
nay- to the young people before him.

lapsus linguae at a youug ladles' semi-

benches.' Instend 6" which he said
"beery wenches;" Thereby reminding

"It Is gratifying to me to behold so
many tons of soil."

LONDON Aug. 2C Officers and

British universities find there is less
chance that a student will become
isolated in English universities than
in those of America.

tions of the two countries ono of the

American college .is likely t o find lilnir
self shut off from social pleasures and

that men studying law or medicine at
Oxford or Cambridge have tlmu for
such diversions.
