ZION if b. doing she could vindicate
her HUSBAND = god name and destroy
Richard Willmar,.. S. But Willmarth
was dead, which made an enormous
deal Of difference to her, and she very
philcso phicaliy concluded that she had
NO just ground for quarrel with his
child. So she eventually gave her con-
sent to making the settlement private
affair, and it was thereupon effected
promptly, gracefully and permanently.
The only person not party thereto
who even suspected it was the shrewd
old knave, Michael Mccartney, who, see
ing noppblic use made Of the important
document he had given up, quite cor
rectly surmised what had taken place.
And he could not bear to be "left out
in the cold" The happy thought occur
red to him when he , I'd Of the mar
riage Of Miss Willmarth to Mr.. Pratt
that he might "shake stake out Of
them," and he discussed with his SON.
in-law the feasibility Of so doing
cts the boss himself you'd have to
be dalin wild, said Dennis astutely, "if
you wor to. try that on, an if he was the
kind Of man you'd shake dollars out
of as you'd shake nuts off tree sure he
wouldn't be boss. You'd better paint
yourself red an go playin wild a bull
nor try games wild him. The best you d
do'd be to get me fred out of the public
works an yourself locked up maybe for
all your life"
Such possibilities were naturally de-
void of temptation to Mr.. Mccartney.
The alternative then presenting itself to
his mind was an appeal to Mr.. Latham,
as the representative Of the Hall inter-
ests, for something handsome as re-
ward for long and faithful service in
carefully keeping for so many years that
invaluable paper. He actually had the
audacity to make such claim and
avowed himself cut to the heart by the
ingratitude which inspired its contemp-
tuous rejection. After that he declared
he wanted no more to do with such peo-
pie, and so completely has he ever since
withdrawn from them the favor Of his
acquaintance that they have no idea
what has become Of him.
When Addie Hall married John La
tham-along about the time the lilacs
were in bloom-the Harlem cottage was
found much too small for the family.
The parlor was the only room large
enough for him to move about in, and
even there he had to be careful how he
stretched himself. Furthermore, Mrs.
Hall suddenly developed taste fer
what might be characterized as modest
Ostentation.
81 have lived in q birdcage long
enough" she said, "and now that 1
can afford it propose to end my days
In % real human habitation
They did not realize until about to
say farewell to it That the lfttIe cottage
had become so dear to them. Love had
lived in it with them and hallowed it.
But love was not left behind when they
moved away to q more commodious
dwelling farther down town. He simply
went along and settled in congenial per-
manent quarters. Mrs. Hall proved to
be one of those model mothers-in-law
with whom he has no natural antago-
nism. In her eyes, as in her daughters,
John Latham is as perfect an adopted
son and husband as man may be, and,
indeed, that happy man has never yet
done aught to forfeit such regard.

The SWAN AND The CRANE.
Mr. Moody Employs Striking Fable to
illustrate His Teachings ON Sin.

NJ. Moody Employs n Striking Fable to
illustrate His Teachings on Sin.
The Ladies' Home Journal presents pa
per of Dwight l.. Moody, in "Mr. Moody g
Bible Class" series, in which the famous
evangelist treats of the redemption from
sin and employs the legend of the swan
and the crane to emphasize his teaching:
at seems that a beautiful swan alighted
by the banks Of the water In which q
crane was wading about seeking snails.
For few moments the crane viewed the
swan in stupid wonder and then inquired,
Where do you come from?' Il come from
heaven, replied the swan. And where IL
heaven, asked the crane. Heaven said
the swan, heaven! Have you never heard
of heavenY And the beautiful bird went
on to describe tho grandeur Of the eternal
city. She told Of streets of gold, and the
gates and walls made of precious stones, of
the river of life, pure as crystal, and upon
whose banks are the trees whose leaves
shall be for the healing of the nations In
eloquent terms the swan sought to describe
the hosts who live In the other world. but
without arousing the slightest interest on
the part of the crane. Finally the crane
asked. Are there any snails therep'
'SnailsP repeated the swan. NO! OF
course there are not. Then said the
crane as it continued It's search along the
Shiny banks of tho pool, you can have
your heaven. I will search for snails.
"This fable is but mirror. How many
q young person to whom God has granted
the advantages Of Christian home has
turned his back upon it and searched for
snails How many man will sacrifice his
home, his wife, his family, his all. for the
snails of sin. How many girl has de-
liberately turned from the love Of parents
and home to learn too late that heaven has
been forfeited for anails -

in arms and too small for the institu-
ton, with some old crone, who might
be paid for her keep until she grew big
enough to live ON charity.
Some way, though, none Of them cared
to say so outright to Marty. "Itis your
place to tell her-you are eldest now, "
Mark said to Carl, and Carl, shutting
his feet, repeated to Griefel: "No, it is

said the three in chorus. Then they

the tall brother, who would come back
no more. But there was no relenting in
the sigh. 1t meant only that they had
hearts not wholly stony. Marty must be
told, for all she was SO slight, with

Griefel went away dumb and staring,

CHAPTER L

When Fisherman Petersand was
drowned in the great storm, all the
village agreed with itself that his wife
Marty would have hard time filling
the mouths Of her five children, Sturdy,
hearty little beggars they were-all too
young to work-and Marty herself was
but poor wisp Of thing without
strength or management sufficient for
the head Of the house. Then, too. she
had been lone orphan when Petersand
married her-one outside the village at
that-so she had not a soul she might
look to upon her own account. And the
Dther Petersands had been 30 sore over
her incoming 1t was unlikely they
would do moro than give her advice
which she could not possibly follow.
About that part the village was
right. Grandfather Petersand, shaking
his head dolefully, told poor Marty all
he could possibly do for her was to say
that if she let him have Ted, the oldest
Of her flock, he would see that the rouge
did not go hungry or naked, providing
the lad were regularly indentured till
he should come one and twenty. The
other Observation-Disclosures sons
agreed among themselves that there was
no room in any of their homes for the
little ones-the mother had best put
them in the Fisherman's orphanage and
herself seek service in the world out

THE VOICES OF BULLETS.

From half-past eleven onward for two hours the Turks did their very best. Their fire was incessant, like the "inde- pendent firing" which is so comforting a business just before the enjoyable charge on big Aldershot field day. We kept constant watch and fired when possible, but as we were against the skyline, the enemy had much bet ter sight of us than we had of them. However, from behind our little wall We could laugh and say 'Kale oraP' C'Good morning to you') as the bullets howled past.
 By the way, the voice of bullet va ries. There. is the thin high whistle, to which no one pays any attention after the first half-hour. There is the pro- longed moan, "the cry of lost spirit, as a novelist might say. There is the wolfish howl, which for some reason al ways seems to be taking one on the flank instead of fairly in front; and last of all there is the low, ill-tempered buzz, as though the nasty thing had got out of bed the wrong side, as children say. It is far the most terrifying, es- pecially if it suddenly stops as the bull let strikes something close at hand. It as to those bullets only that WI polite ly wished Good morning.

 This action on the part of the facul- ty will doubtless curtail the number of fantastic and grotesque advertising schemes which departing students in- vent to dispose of their household goods.

By a vote of to it was decided to remove the restriction placed on the company, May 12, com polling it to extend its tracks to East street if it desired to enter the city, which was objected to by the eompa- ny, as it was desirous to have the ter minus at Market street. After the meeting representatives of the compa- ny stated that they would undoubtedly extend the tracks to East street if travel seemed to warrant it, but they objected to being forced to do it. Work will be at once commenced now on the extension, and it is hoped to build the five miles of track from Tal- cottville in about forty-five days.
