fool and madman, but there Is no security
IN the world better to-day than that of
Uncle Sam, and 1t IL believed here that 2
per cent bond could be fioajed. Every one
wants these bonds The banks cry for
them. Old maids sigh for them, and the
'imid capitalists are almost ready 10 die
for them. They feel that their money is
safe and that this S50.000,000 in bonds is
surer than safe deposits or stockings under
the rafters. Thousands of comparatively
moor people will invest in these bonds.
Thev will get them through the bankers
and they will pay high prices for them, but
their money will be- safe and the interest
Will always be paid when it is due.
Have you ever seen Government bond
1t is only piece of paper. but ii is often
worth its weight in diamonds. The bonds
Of the present issue are in denominations
of $50, 500, $1,000 and 10000 The bonds
are OF the same size and the difference is
shown by the figures on heir iaces. Four

The new bonds are Of two kinds. One
class is of registered bonds and the other
coupon bonds. The coupon bonds are paw

a NUM- Der OF detachable coupons about the
size Of an old 10-cent shin pla ster. The in
terest is payable quarterly, and every
three months you clip off these coupons

United States OF at the banks. Any bank
in the country knows just what they are

bonds in business deals. and their value is
so well fixed that they could almost pass as

A HOME PICTURE.

Ny friend was a guest of the morning train;
And once as a PROSPEROUS town ii neared.
He idly glanced through the WIND ow- zane
And this Is the picture that appeared:
A good-fsced man In a fendish plight;
His cheeks were boated and stained with red;
II e slept the day of a sin-cursed night.
A pillow OF stones beneath his head.
BY him the midnights reveling storm
sent stains to the mornings bslmy breath.
And manhood's towering, godlike form
Lay low in the tomb of drunkard's death
And close by his side a woman stood.
And brOOded this wreck OF man above;
Ter brow was glimpse OF all things good;
her eyes were symbols Of home and love
Stood close by his side. and yet apart,
motionless gesture OF despair,
AS IL she would clasp him 10 her heart.
If only the man himself were there.
She stood maybe If she had known
What marks the one she had found there bore
She had prayed 10 God with a bitter moan
TO keep her searching forevermore.
OF needless worry and senseless strife:
Who early in years had learned how much
or death there is in woman's life.
She stood like one who had set a goal:
Whoneer by her God would be denied,
Until he had helped her lead that soul
SAT e up 10 the hill-topS by her side.
All this appeared in a moments glance
This nash-ltght picture OF grief and wrong;
The train made sudden and swift advance
But carried the husband and wife along.
Forever after, my friend confessed
Went with him that scene OF crime and pain:
Through days OF striving aud nights OF rest
II hung in the halls OF his heart and brain
And other pictures wont to throng-
or sleeping children and waking wives
Waiting ana waiting the whole night long
FOR one they love as they love their lives:
or praying for him till night is DER;
OF listening for his step ia vain;
Then searching as If on fields o. gore,
And finding him almost worse than slain.
But som etimes these will vanish away;
And Faith is painting promis ise bright
That God and woman, and home, some day
Will draw mankind TO the hills of right

A NOVEL CEREMONY.
Lady Stafford Northcote Tells of Her
Visit to a French Cathedral.

In an article on French Cathedrals." in
Blackwood's Magazine. Lady Stafford
Northcote gives the following interesting
account OF peculiar ceremony:
At scissors, we were rewarded by seeing
the ''Lavements des Pieds," most novel
ceremony to us. In the nave of the csthe-
dral an oblong space was fenced in, around
which were placed chairs for the congrega-
ton CAt the west end of the fnciosure
was a slightly raised platform, on which
sat the twelve old men whose feet were 10

which bore piles of loaves. The COM

quietly took up their allotted places.
Presently, from the east end OF The church,
came a proce> sion of canons OF the diocese
similarly vested, in the rear of whom was
the Bishop with his pastoral staff, and
wearing violet cope and miter of white
and gold. After aishOrt preliminary Office,
the Bishop took his seat in the center Of

Thence, an Oblate of the Sacred Heart
delivered a sermon, which was chiefly an
ampIification of the Gospel narrative of

which he held under the foot of each cid
man. while another poured water over 1t
from silver-gilt ever. The Bishop then
dried and kissed the foot, and other assist
ants successivey handed him cup of
VINE, loaf and piece of money, which
ne gave to each reci lent. 1t may be
imagined that this function was a very
trying one to the chief actor in it. Never
theiess. the Bishop, fine, venerable and
formed his part with great dignity and
kindness of manner. 1t was a touching
sight to see him after the ceremony going
the round of the inclosure, and placing
his hand on the heads of the little chill
dren, whom their mothers eagerly put for
ward for his blessing.

Naming N Novel.

Here is a story which f. Marion Craw-
ford has been telling in Washington.
Like every other man of prominence
whose name is familiar to the reading
public, Mr. Crawford is frequently asked
for his autograph With these requests
ne invariably complies. Last autumn,
when his new story had been carefully
thought out and the work was fairly
under way, he received a letter from
two of the girl students at Wellesley
college containing a request for his sigma
ture. Ore Of the letters was signed
Katherine Lauderdale. To this and the
accompanying letter a prompt reply was
given. But fhe name haunted him.
katharine Lauderdaler 1t suggested
refinement, cultivation. good looks. TO-
nance. 1t was just the name for the
novel which he was writing He sent
miss Lauderdale" another letter.
Would she permit him to call his story
Katherine Lauderdale?" BY return
mail came an impersonal reply. The
young lady had no objection, and the
book which is now attracting the atten-
ton OF the reading public was so
christened.-Boston Herald

And. my brethren and sisters, we fail
I'm our work just in proportion as we try
TO be like other churches. We believe
that God intended every church, like
every man, TO be individual. gathering
up all it's peculiarities and idiosyncrasies
and hurting them all toward some good
and grand object. In other words no
two churches ought ever to be just alike.
Here is a church, for instance. whose

them in the difficult work. Here is a

rich. God speed such a church in its
undertaking. But there is a larger idea
that a church may take-bringing i'm the

poys From twelve to Twenty.

Boys from t2 to 90 are the most impor-
tant factors Of society and should receive
the best thought and care Of home, state
and church, whereas they do not receive
even an average amount. Infant years,
on the other hand, have been greatly over
estimated In regard to their influence upon
the mental and moral life Of man. Under
the age of 10, the child, physically, men,
tally and morally, Is in the germ. During
the first IL months Of life the babe is COM
ing into consciousness Of its own life,
learning how to recognize its mother; how
to use its eyes for SEEING ears for hearing,
hands for feeling, voice for laughing and
speaking, feet for walking. In like man.
ner the first 10 years of childlife are used
in coming into knowledge of the great
world about him. They are years in which
be learns to use words, books and tools;
learns to distinguish form, size, number
and color of objects; learns his way about
the village, town and neighboring city;
learns, In short, his relation to the sur
rounding world. They are years of awak-
ening, constant surprises. He has no taste
or ability for mature or continued thought.
During these early years you can no more
establish the mental, moral or religious
life of the child than you determine what
shall be the first 10 words the babe shall
speak or on what day or hour it shall take
its first step.-Rev. A. e. Winship.

ChIldren,s Eating.

Some parents compel their children to
eat against their will, as when they come
to the breakfast table without an appetite,
or have lost it in prospect of visit or a
ride, or for the sake of "eating their plates
clean" In discouragement of wasteful hab-
its. Unless we are thirsty we cannot drink
the purest spring water without aversion,
and as for eating when there is no appetite
1t Is revolving. as any one may prove to
himself by attempting to take second
meal in 20 minutes after having eaten a
regular dinner. The appetite, the hunger,
is excited by the presence of gastric juice
about the stomach. but if there is no gas
trio juice there can be no hunger, no appe-
tite, and to compel child TO swallow food
when 1t is distasteful is an absurdity and a
cruelty, in the opinion of Halls Journal of
Health
