THE WOMAN WHO
WAS FORGOTTEN.
BY EDITH SESSIONS TUPPER.
Copyright, 1881

New York, June 3.--She drifted like a
ghost into the uptown Office of a great ex-
position
She was old and wrinkled and shabby.
Her rusty cloak was patched in many
places, and the black straw bonnet which
did duty alike In winter and summer. was
tied down by a coarse black veil over the
ears, fast closing to all sound. From her
arm dangled a quaint black bag, in which
she carried her spectacles, some bits of
paper and her handkerchief She was a
sorry, pathetic figure, as she deprecat-
ingly picked her way among the handsome
and richly-gowned women who were en-
cheering the ladies' department of a
great fair, discussing WAYS and means of

SONGS OF GERMAN SOLDIERS,
Troops Provided With Books to Take
With Them.
From nc Boston Watehman.


The German troops are provided with
song books containing patriotic songs and
hymns for Sunday use The first para
graph of the little book contains this I'D
dress: This little book is given to YOU
the men who form the national army, so
that your faith may be strengthened by
studying the songs and prayers which it
contains, both privately and in public.
So that in times Of health or of sickness,
in peace or in war, you may become filled
with the spirit of humility and self-con-
troll, with self denial-aud fidelity, with
patience, with hope, and with regard for
your fellow-men. Il is intended
10 provide you with spiritual
equipment. Bind it to you tighter and
tighter still. 1t will give you strength
in battle and honor in victory"
Some critic has discovered that this song
book weighs 100 Frammes, and he main
tains that it would be a wise economy for
the government to dispense with the song
books and put 100 grammes more food in
the haversaclS of tho German soldier. A
German chaplain, however has shown
that in the army that overcame Napo-
Icon in the campaign of 1Sl3-18l5. the
troops who had not taken their song books
felt such a need of their familiar hymns
that during the armistice of 1913 Gen. Won
Bulow was constrained to have a song
book complied by two of his chaplains for
the use of his troops, which was greedily
taken up by other corps. among the rest
by that commanded by Bluchor and that
the song book has ever since been an i'm
portant part of soldiers equipment
The Saturday Review cites an onlOOlzer
in the war Of 1870, who was detained at
Ulm while the German troops went to the
front, as saying: "A distant murmur
caught my ear, swelling and subsiding in
solemn and plaintive strains upon the

grees, until could recognize the notes of

THE WEATHER IN ICELAND.
1t Is Not Colder in Some Places Than
It Is in This Country.
From the Edinburgh Scotsman.


It is quite a mistake to imagine that the
Icelanders are ever called upon to en- =
dure a cold equal to that of many parts
Of inland Canada and the United States
during almost any winter During Feb
ruary, for instance, the thermometer at
Assiniboin registered SO below zero. and
at Edmonton, in the Northwest Territory
q minus of So was reported. Nothing
like this is known in Iceland The very
name of the island is a misnOmer, just as
much as that of Greenland is. Snow and
glaciers there are no doubt, just as there
arc vast fields of lava, and volcanoes, the
fires Of which are not yet extinct. But,
except on rare occasions, when the Spitz-
bergen and East Greenland ice is driven
by the wind against the northern coast
bringing cold and fogs in summer, and
polar bears which play havoc with the
tiocks-sea ice Is practically unknown in
Iceland
Thanks to the Gulf stream, the climate
of the southern parts of the island, with
the exception that it is rather colder,
closely resembles that of the north of
Scotland, and the nOrtherly districts,
though the temperature is naturally lower
are not so wet. Thunder storms are rare,
and, strangely enough, usually occur in
the winter, when the temperature is mild
for the latitude. The mean is about 3'
above the freezing point, but there are,
of course, exceptional frosts, and varia-
tiOns that in a single month will range
through 20. AS a whole, however, if the
climate of Iceland is neither so hot nor
cold as thatot any part of the settled
area of North America, its average is
lower. 1t may not know the meaning of
co. below zero, but, on the other hand

An open umbrella, a large black cot
ton affair, with it's handle supported
against stump, was the immediate
cause of all their trouble. A young
woman sitting on stump. with an
aQen book on her lap, suddenly furled
the umbrella, thus bringing to view a
large basket full of dewy cut flowers.
She stood up as John came towards her.
Ninette's hat lay almost at her feet.
Nora could her saying, gravely:

Nora could see pale, gentle face illum-
mated by large gray eyes. John stood

Ninette, somewhat jerkily. s'Ninette

"Does not Ninette want to see the
beautiful fower-lady again?' Nora
asked, without slackening her speed.
But in another second she came to full
stop with an exclamation of disappoint-
ment:
"Ah! we are too late"
Along the dusty roadway a mule was
lazily shambling. On his back bent
old negro was mounted, his two knotty
hands clasped about the basket Miss
Fairbanks had been guarding. From be-
meath the damp Spanish moss brilliant
hues and penetrating fragrance es-
capped.
Nora stood still and waited for him.
When they were abreast she held up
one hand commandingly:
''Cabbages to sell, uncle?" she asked,
in clear, high voice.
"No cabbage, mistress"
"Onions, potatoes, turnips?"
"Only GAMBLERS, violets and sweet
olive, young mistress. :"
Nora made sign Of disappointment,
then asked, carelessly: "And how often
do you go to town with your basket?''
"Every day, marm."
"About this same time?''
