how TO get at him, writes DR.. Taimage in the
L dies Home Journal Truman Osborne, one
of the evangelists who went through this coun-
| try many years ago, had a wonderful art in the
right direction. He came to my fathers house
one day, and while We We're all seated in the
room he said Mr. Talmage, are all your chill
dren Christians?' Father said: Yes, all but
De Witt" Then Truman Osborne looked down
into the fireplace and began to tell story of a
storm that came on the mountains, and all the
| sheep were in the fold; but there was one lamb
outside that persisted in the storm. II ad he
looked me in the eye | should have been angered
when he told that story; but he looked into the
fireplace, and it was So pathetically and beauti-
fully done that never found any peace until I
was sure was inside the fold, where the other
sheep were.
AwELL-KEowN entomologist shot a male king
bird few days ago and on picking it up was
surprised to find strange looking beetle crawl
out of its mouth This gave the gentleman an

mounting be took particular pains not TO injure
the glzZard On opening this he found ex-
actly what he thought he would-a mate
for the beetle. THE fact that found one bee

New York city. She began her artistic studies
! at Is years Of age. first the National Academy
of Design and after at the Art Stu ents League,

! and kenyon Cox At a reception given by the
! art league Benjamin Constant selected her life
! work for special and complimentary mention,
| saying he could scarcely believe it had been

FEW WEEKS AGO the queen regent of Spain
wrote to his holiness, the pope, asking him to
! grant bshopric to q poor and humble priest
the son Of Tyrolese shepherd. The interest
SHOWN o. the young sovereign in this lowly
| member OF the caurch has its source in an Incl
| dent touching if somewhat ludic-ous which
! took place when Marie Christine was little
girl OF years, says the Marquise de Fontenov''
III the New York Recorder. Sac was one dav
roaming about the mountains with her gov
| eTneSS when q violent storm came on and fhev
! took shelter in a shepherds hut which was near
at hand A little curly headed boy. only a few
| amusing himself with some pebbles in a corner
| of the miserable dwelling when they
| entered. Resenting this sudden in
truslon, the boy marched up to the
! prlncely child and gave her a smart
blow on the back. Poor Marie Christine
! offended and hurt beyond description by this
extraordinary action, burst into a violent fit Of
| weeping and was pacified with the utmost dtff.
| Guilty. few years later, when her royal and
| imperial hlghness made her first communion,
| she expressed the desire of paying for the
dresses worn by some poor Communicates,
among whom happened TO be the son of the
! Tyrolese shepherd the boy who had once so
! grossly lnsuted her. She remembered him at
once, and hearing that he wished tn become a
priest undertook to defrsy all the expenses Of
! ms education. Ever since that day the queen
has been the providence of the poor priest
| whose name is Angeroff and she wrote to him
before demanding from the pope the bishopric
above mentioned, saying: Il want you to be
| come bishop because you know so well how to
| cressmaro' that is the laying on of hands, or
| confirming.
