money having been realized, a similar
contribution was levied the following
Sunday. As before, everyone gave but

The Oldest stamp.

Partisan stamp collectors have been
discussing the question whether the
English stamp of 1910, called the Row.
land Hill stamp, is really the Oldest in
existence, and the conclusion arrived
at is opposed to this view. They claim
that the first French stamp dates from
nearly two centuries earlier, in 1858.
In that year people used to buy at the
Palais de Justice, in Paris, "billets de
post paye," or carriage paid tickets,
with which the carriage of letters for
any place within the capital could be
prepaid. One of these tickets is said
to be in the possession of NJ. Feuillet

we should find them accounting for the

dan mind toward modern scientific IN.

Disappo.. .ng a Proud Father.

A proud father had, just before din
ner, been telling the visitor how clever
his little girl was. He said it was not
precocity; 1t was intelligence. When
she learned thing she knew its value,
and she was never known, like other
children, to ask foolish questions.
"You'u see now. If that child asks a
question about anything it will sur
prise you with its sense" At dinner
the conversation turned upon Austria.
The intellectual child was taking it all
in. In pause in the talk. she piped
out: "Papav' "What is it, my dear?"
said the proud parent, with a pleasing
smile, as he looked at the visitor, as
much as to say, "Now is your chance;
you listen." "Papa, are they all os-
triches in Austrian"

All Depends on the Beart.

He who rudely filings g crust to a

due-himself of the privilege of show

Self isolation is self-destruction. We
need the incitement to virtue which
comes from association with the lowly

our help. God has SO ordered this
world that none have greater need to
beg than the self satisfied; and none
are so poor that they may not become
