Started to Chicago With Fine Dis
play in Philadelphia.
There was fine show Of patriotism at
Philadelphia, Penn, when the famous Lb-
erty Bell began its journey from Indepen-.
dence Hall to Chicago. 50:
Extensive preparations had been made by
the Councils joint special committee for ths
event, The bell was lowered from its posi-
tion In Independence Hall and placed In the
hall opposite the museum, where 1t was
viewed by throngs. Then 1t was placed upon
a truck specially constructed for the purpose
and escorted by Philadelphia's contingent Of
the Pennsylvania National Guard 70 the

ond and Market streets, whence the train
bearing the bell and Its escort left for Chi.

the parade was reviewed by Mayor Stuart.
Decorations throughout the city were gem

The streets through which the procession
passed were crowded BY thousands VINO
cheered and waved handkerchiefs as though
the historic r,Eic was thing Of life. It was
Ais o'clock when the bell. mounted on a
huge truck trimmed with flowers and flags
and drawn by SIX bay horses, lsft Inde-
pendence Hall. Two hours and quarter
later it arrived at the Pennsylvania Rail
road freighc yards, and at z o'clock was
hoisted onto the car. The bell Is guarded by
four stalwart policemen, who will remain

Young Blaine's Bell.

Herewith is good story which I
heard in the far away Japan Islands
some years ago in connection with
James G.. Blaine. It was told to me
by q fellow alumuni of Blaine's at
Dickinson College, Carlisle. The
Blaines lived in little house near Car
Isle, and back of the small farm was a
dense forest. Young Jim Blaine was
ever chatting at the petty restraints OF
Mamma Blaine, and would wander In
the forest paths. All the stories about
panthers and catamounts, red Indians
and red imps generally had no effect on
the boy of six summers, and then Ma
Blaine
Put a cow-bel round Jim's neck,
To keep her little dear In check;
And when Jim wandered quite too far
And sought in vain his fond papa,
The tinkling cow-bell brought him near,
With Fido's aid he did appear,
With many spank he went to bed,
But with dawn again he fed, ETC., etc.
NY informant at Nagasaki told me
that he had seen the cow-bell many
time in the old Blaine mansion. It
was kept as q sort of heirloom, show
ing the stuff the lad was made OF even
then, prompt, sharp, aggressive and
knowing no fear.-Philadelphla Ke'

Chicago Fair. It is hand carved iron
eagle, the work of Japanese artist,
Shinjiro Ita-o, of the province of Xii,
and it took him just five years to make
it. It is two feet in height and meas
ures from tip to tip of the extended
wings five feet, the weight being 1873
pounds. The head is so constructed
that it will swerve from side to side
like that Of live bird.
The bird has more than 5000 feathers
maze separately by hand, the lines on
each numbering several hundred, and
many of them of such remarkable fine
ness that in order to preserve their
uniformity of appearance fresh tool
had to be employed after cutting three
or four of them. This will give some
ieea of the patience and care required
for the successful accomplishment of
the work. ..'....
Shinjiro Ita-o captured two eagles.
One he killed and stuffed and the other
he kept alive. He used both rs models
so that while engaged on the work he
might study the bird both in repose
and in action. New York Herald.

IRON THE SOUL.

It ia significant that the men and women
who have influenced their fellows most
deeply have spoken directly and unhesita.
tingly out of their own best natures. They
have not waited upon common opinion nor
repeated the current phrases; they have not
weighted their words against their prospects
of adyancemet, nor fitted their teaching to
the prevalent mood. They have said what
they believed, frankly and courageousy,
They have not calculated the chances
of acceptance; they have spoken
what seemed true to them, and lett the result
with God. Atmospheric influences are very
powerfuI and pervasive, and onlystrong ma
lures overcome them; contemporary cur
rents are often swift and wide, and only
resolute souls breast and battle them. But
no one can really speak to men the words
that upft and invigorate, who does not hrst
develop this inward force, this victorious
faith in the truth as he sees 1t. The more
sensitive man Is, the more force must he
put forth to express what is original in
him. But these original words are the
only ones that count; all other words are
echoes. The difficulty il, however, less than
it appears; for, however set men may be IN
their prejidices, or however confirmed IN
their indifference, there is something in them
which responds to the direct and frank utter
ance of O noble nature. Many speaker
faces an apparently stoid audience and sees
its hardness melt in the fire of his convie.
ton. Many man skrinks from opening his
heart before a :hrong of strangers,
Lut when be has spoken simply
and frankly of what is most sacred
to him he finds that his listeners are sud.
deny his friends. We hide our hest selves
as if we were ashamed of them; but when
we take courage and speak Of our deepest
convictions, our highest aspirations, we sud.
denly find that we have entered into sacred
companionship with our fellows, and that
the breath Of our fervor has stirred the same
fire Of nobleness in, them that burns IN us.
Never give less than your best, and re-
member that your best is always your
self.-[Christian ULion.
