THE SCARLET LET
TER is written by the firm
hand of a master, guided by
the characteristic and vivid
imagination of a great author.
The shadow of a former day
takes the reader by the hand
and leads him back to the
early days of a New England
town; amid the scenes of an
English-American colony, the
reader is made familiar with
the quaint conditions of Puri-
tan life. Through the lines
one hears the cry of anguish
and the laugh of JOY and sees
the scenes as they unfold in
sunshine and in shadow.
Those who have read this
fascinating story, years ago,
will be glad to read it once
more, while thousands. both
old and young, who have
never had that pleasure, will
be glad to read it now.

Greatness is a thing which has to
be paid for, and the bill which has
to be paid is bill which continually
needs repaying. The debtor can
never liquidate it once and once for
all; never, either living or dead. 1t
is hard TO become eminent; it is
bayder still to keep eminent when
you are eminent. A man who be-
comes great in any walk of life for
feits the birthright of every English
mamie ceases to be free. 1t is
possible that he may become little
again; it is probable, indeed, that he
will.
Few men continue great their
whole lives long; but in spite of his
return to the ranks of the little years,
nay, centuries afterward, some one
will claim the right to make meal
off him because he once was great.
Though he be an Egyptian mummy
his account shall still be running
The man who, while the breath is
still in his body, becomes great is no
longer able 70 live his own life. He
becomes sport for the hounds. They
follow him not only to his death, but
long afterward-through the ages
Think of that, ye failures, and give
thanks All the Year Round.

The nomenclature of the army was
particularly rich in descriptive titles,
and a study of the men upon whom
these names were bestowed will dis
cover the fact that very few of them
were i'll advised or misplaced.
General Ulysses Simpson Grant
was at first called "Old United
States" from the initials of his
name After the little episode at
Fort Donelson, when he issued the
edict which stamped him as equal to
the emergency, his men enthusiastic
ally declared that those initials stood
for unconditional Surrender"
In fact, those initials caused him
not little perturbation of mind, and
in the end he actually had to aban-
don his baptismal name to save the
dignity of West Point, which unwit-
tingly gave him a name that didn't
belong to him, but since it was writ
down" the red tape complications in
volved in restoring his right name
presented formidable obstacles which
he hesitated to tackle. Many of his
men called him "Old Three Stars,
that indicating his rank as lieutenant
general. Later, when fighting the
battle with the conqueror who soon
or late subdues all flesh, he became
known the world over as the Silent
Sufferer. y Washington Star.

Emilio CASTELAR,, the silver tongued
Spanish tribune, is simply miserable
on the eve of great speech. His un-
rest and anxiety on such occasions
are a characteristic feature of the
man. He wanders distraught about
the building in which the cortes is in
session. He rushes into the cafe to
take a glass of water; seems to be
seized with fever; fancies he will
not know how to put the words to-
gether; that he will be laughed at or
hissed; not Il single lucid idea of his
speech remains in his head-he has
confused and forgotten everything
until the moment when he looks
round upon the expectant faces and
delivers the first sentence of his ad-
dress. Then words do not fail they
come to his help in stately, sonorous
order. Then courage does not fi9".
He is statesman with mission, in
spired and earnest. Every atom of
timorousness has evaporated. d.-Cas-

Tiny Watches.

The fancy for small watches is a
revival of ancient fashion 1t is
chronicled that bloody Queen Mary
possessed an octagon silver watch,
whose dial plate measured only nine
tenths of an inch in diameter. Her
unfortunate namesake, Mary, queen
of Scots took pride i'll small silver
deaths head that concealed a dial in
its throat. The works took the place
of brains, and were wound up with
catgut. The lower jaw opened on
hinges to reveal the dial, and small
ring in the top of the skull served to
attach the uncanny ornament to a
chatelaine. Jewellers Review.

A hunter in southern France who
had spent n considerable part Of the
day in an unsuccessful quest foI
game. and had discharged his shot
gun many times without result.
caught sight on his way home of q
superb pigeon well up in an oak tree,
which grew on very steep hillside.
The hunters gun was charged with
powder, but he was entirely out of
shot In this emergency, and re-
solving firmly that he would have
the pigeon, he sat down ON the
ground. took out his pocketlznife
and with it pulled several nails out
of the soles of his shoe. With these
he loaded his gun.
The pigeon sat in his place. The
hunter aimed, fred and the pigeon
was mailed to a branch of the oak
tree with the shoe nails.
The hunter was almost in despair,
seeing the game apparently fastened
beyond his reach. But he climbed the
tree, ascended with difficulty to the
place where the pigeon hung and
had just taken the bird off when he
lost his footing and fell through the
air.
AS chance would have it, the hunt
er landed in the midst of hare's
nest. He began to roll rapidly down
the steep and slippery hillside, but
before he did so he seized large
hare firmly by the hind legs.
Rolling downward, the hunter slid
plump into covey of partlidges,
and striking about him with the hare
he succeeded in killing nine of these
admirable birds.
He then picked himself up and took
himself homeward with his pigeon,
his hare and his partridges, well sat
isfied with the results of his shot

The Only Place to Die In.

Eammerfesters who go abroad,
whether they do well or not, have a
craving for Hammerfest. / met a
captain of Il great line steamer, who
told me that in his opinion it was the
only place on the face of the earth
worth living in. His dream was
finally to settle down on the bor-
der of the lake, just above the
waterfall, He was born there, and
there he hoped to die. The Norwe-
gian mind IS he also said, slow and

lie Marched 70 the Block with No Fear
Of Death or the Bcadsmsn.
Sir Walter Raleigh had been con-
demncd in 1908 as the friend Of Spain.
He wGs now TO Perish ns its enemy.
But he had not committed any fresh
treason. James. whose ingenuity in
coDtriving hisown degradation leaves

to King Philip that be might execute
him at Madrid. The Castilian pre-
fetrcd that James should be his own
headsman.
The dying queen, Anne of Den
mark, interceded with Villiers for
Raleigh's life. but of course in vain.
On Oct. 2S he was taken, suffering
from ague, to Westminster, where
the Winchester convention, then fif-
teen years old, was rehearsed, and
execution demanded by the attorney
general, Yelverton. Montague, the
Judge, speaking in terms of compass
sion and even of respect, granted it.
Then, after some few words of dig
nifed petition, Raleigh was led away
to the Gate house. He was to die
next morning.
Into this short span he crowded
Wo-.d of tenderness and heroism.
The verses which he wrote still
breathe his undaunted courage. To
the dean of Westminster he gave
God thanks, he never feared death"
and his last farewell to Lady Raleigh
was a smiling word-'It is well, dear
Bess, that thou mayest dispose of
that dead" meaning his body,
(which thou hadst not always the
disposing of when alive" Early in
the morning he received the sacra-
ment. Afterward ''he was very
cheerful ate his breakfast heartily
and took tobacco, and made no more
of his death than if it had been to
take journey" His imperturbable
good humor and present wit amazed
the beholders.
The day was bitter and a fire was
lighted beside the scaffold, round
about which lords and gentlemen
thronged to hear him speak. He sat
down in view of the block, and pro-
ceeded with the utmost calmness to
defend or explain whatever in his
conduct might have bred suspicion,
sparing the king, but denying Stuke-
lev's calumnies. He was careful to
affirm that he had done no dishonor
to Essex at the last. And then, beg
ging their prayers as one who had
lived q sinful life, who had been "a
soldier, a sailor and a courtier, which |

His last words are deservedly fa

A Telephone In Her Cabin.

Perhaps but one vessel ahoat-the
police tug Stollley-can boast of tele-
phone connection with the world at
large. A regular telephone has a
place on the wall of the main cabin,
and when at anchor off Vine street
the instrument is connected with a
switchboard on the wharf by a heav-
lily insulated wire. When thus con
nected those aboard can talk to any
part of the city, or to any point
reached by long distance telephone
without leaving the vessel. l.-Phila-
