why She Wasn't Afraid.

The fresh air children see the country
with their own eyes, not with yours or
mine. They steadily refuse to crafty
the taste of sentimental and exacting
persons by becoming morbidly lost in
marvel, or rapt in poetic fancy. Occa-
Bionally one finds child whose mind is
sensitive, and who develops rare APP
probation of the beauty of living close
to the heart Of things, but usually these
charity children enjoy whatever comes
to them in just the same unrefecting
prosaic, wholesome way that we find
most gratifying and healthful in our
own children.
Very strange and wonderful every
thing is to them, to be sure; but in a
land where everything is strange and
wonderful one loses sight Of special mar
vel. A peculiar and disastrous hail
storm once swept over farm where a
dozen children were staying. The chill
dren of the household were terrified, but
the little visitors were perfectly calm.
II thought maybe it always rained
sharp glass in the country" said one lit
tie girl, when they asked her why she
wasn't afraid.-Harper's Bazaar.

The Use of a LlghtshIp


One day we had what was perhaps
practical illustration of the hghtship's
usefulness. 1t was hazy morning, and
the mate was scanning the horizon with
his glass. Bringing 1t to bear to the
sbuthward, he held it long in that direc-
ton, while look Of anxiety came over
his face. Several Of the crew Joined him,
and finally one of them said, eff she
keeps that course five minutes longer
she'll be on the shoal." Through the
haze large three masted schooner was
discernible, heading directly for reef
to the southwest of us.
She was evidently looking for the
lightship, but the haze had prevented
her from sighting us, although our sharp
lookout had had his glass on her for
some time. Then, too, as the mate re-
marked, with a slightly critical smile,
"These captains feel so sure of their
course that they always expect to raise
us straight ahead" Suddenly there was
evidence that she had sighted us.
She swung around as swiftly as if she
were turning upon a pivot. She had
been lunging along in an uncertain way,
but the sight Of us seemed to fill her with
new life and buoyancy. Her sails filed,
she dashed through the waves with
streaks Of white streaming along each
quarter like foam on the tanks of a race
horse, and on she came, fairly quivering
with joy from keel to pennant.
Such instances are Of almost daily oc-
currence, and If we add to them the &C.
casions-and they must run far up into
the hundreds, if not into the thousands
when the warning voice of the fog bell
and the guiding CLEAN of the lamps have
saved vessels from shipwreck, it seems
as though the sailor must look upon the
South Shoal hghtship as one Of the
guardian angels Of the deen.-sNznAy

Interview in st. Louis Globe Democrat
a curious study in which newspaper
friend of mine Is indulging Is that of de-
termining the character of the opinions
that many men of many minds entertain
In regard to the time and manner of
their own deaths. The result of his
study is certainly interesting, to say the
least. One of the foremost men in poll
tics in this state firmly believes that he
will die by bullet. He has no reason
for that belief except the unexplainable
presentiment that he has carried about
with him all his life.
Even when he was boy he was fas-
cinated with the idea, and he always be-
heved that when his time came he would
die by bullet, and rather viewed the
matter complacently. Nevertheless, he
went to the wars, and, besides, he has
fought two duels and been an officer of
the government in the detection and ar
rest Of moonshiners, and although his
life has been in imminent peril many
times, he has never been touched by a
bullet.
Another man, one of the brightest
newspaper men in Boston, believes that
he will die Of pneumonia. Still another
gentleman, a physician of great skill and
a scholar of much reputation. believes
that he will be suffocated. He has an
idea that he will be hanged in some acct
dental way, and if you should talk to
him about this you would find that he is
painfully in earnest, and really permits
his strange presentiment to seriously dis
turb him. -<Iatnzz&ewpAn On ,Ssu1sE6m&7-
