Mrs. Little was a woman greatly re-
spected in the little neighborhood where
she lived. Her friends and neighbors
often spoke Of her knowledge of Bible
teachings, and few were the occasions
when she did not remind them OF her
attachments by some apt quotation.
How is it, Mrs. Little. asked a neigh.
Dor one day, 'that you can always re-
member some suitable quotation for
everything that happens
ooh. don't know" responded the
good woman with pleased smile, "un-

"Pleased," in the expression every
pleased, is nothing more than the past
participle passive of please" used as an
adjective. Very" so far az | am
aware, is never used with any other part
Of verb, and then only when that part
has become adjective by usage. The
following quotation from Pope's Dun
clad" shows its use as an adjective:
Thou triumph'st, Victor Of the high wrought
day,
And the pleased dame, soft smiling, Iead'st
away.
A similar use of the word is when we
say "A persons face has "a pleased ex-
preston" This being the case it is as
correct to say Every pleased" as TO say
"yeTy much pleased" Annandale's lin
perial Dictionary" subject Very" has,
"Among old writers very was fire.
quently used alone to modify a past
participle, and it is still to some extent
so used; thus, Sir w. Jones has very
concerned Gibbon, very unqualified
Sydney Smith, very altered, etc"
As there is no verb unqualify, I'M
qualified can be nothing else but an nd
jeetiye, and concerned and altered come
under the same part Of speech. When
we say, Il am very pleased" there is no
action implied. but there is simply a
description Of the state or condition in
which one is at the time Of speaking.-

High above the ceaseless rumble and
roar Of traffic rose human voices in anx-
ious inquiry. and the dense throng at the
intersection Of State and Madison streets
grew denser still. II was just before
sunset, and the mighty heart Of Chi
Cages business center throbbed with the
feverish energy that marked the closing
hours Of another day of toll, and the
hurrying homeward of restless, eager
thousands. The swiftly moving streams
OF humanity that are wont to meet in
eddying whirls in this dizzy vortex and
then diverge and move onward again,
each in its destined course, had sudden
ly become blocked and chaos reigned.
Pushed toward the common center by
the ever hurrying throngs afoot, in car
riages and in street cars, and unable to
extricate themselves, men, women and
children gasped for breath, and the
crowd in the streets and on the side
walks overhowed into alleys and surged
hither and yon like the resistless ebh

dense throng climbed a lamppost, and
from his elevated position surveyed the

Meanwhile the surging multitude al
State and Madison grew every moment
more appalling and inextricable.
Something must be done.
Fiercely elbowing his way through
the crowd, n newspaper reporter at last
was seen bearing down toward the cen
ter Of the compact mass. His hat was
off, his hair flying in the wind, and his
face was deathly pale, but with set teeth
and dilated nostrils he tore his way
along, thrusting to the right and left
every one who opposed his progress.
Reaching the center of the throng he
seized two individuals by their arms. and
In the same resolute, fearless way opened
a passage for them to the outside, and
as if by magic, the vast concourse dis

manity whirled and eddied as before
and the business heart Of the great city
throbbed again.
