Second Story Show windows.


A new feature Of commercial enter
prise is the second story show window.
This is not only made possible, but im-
perative ON account Of the loop Of the
elevated roads, and already many Of
the downtown merchants are fitting
out their second story windows In re-
splendent style. As the trains wheel
around the vast loop the eyes Of tbs
ladies are cheered and gladdened by
the sight of handsome cloaks marked
down from $12 to $1l.99, and furs, rib
bons, bonness, dresses and marvelously
beautiful wax women attired in queen
ly robes stare In on them from the sec
ond story windows all along the route.
This will eventually be more Q
branch Of downtown display than 1t is
now. but even now the greatest care
10 taken to make the display as com-
plete as 1t Is on the ground floors at
present A trip around the loop will
soon be a swing around the circle Of
what interests the shopper and bargain
hunters and the downtown merchant
on the line Of the elevated who has no
second story window display will have
no need Of clerks, for bis store will bs
deserted.
Stores are being remodeled on the
second story to admit Of better displays
and the second story show window
has come to stay with US in the utmost
splendor and sumptuousness.--C Chicago

A tradesman, owner Of q dog and
cat, had been in the habit Of letting his
dog go to market and buy his own
meat. The dog would bring the meat
home and deposit 1t somewhere In the
store. and when hungry would go and
get 1t, says the Christian Leader. The
cat acquired a habit of stealing its
meat, and the dog would lie down near
1t. watch for the thief, and when the
cat came would drive her away. But
at last he became tired Of this busi-
ness. carried the meat down cellar and
covered 1t up with sand. One day the
owner of the dog thought he would get
the meat, bring it upstairs, and see
what the dog would do. After taking
nap the dog went down in the Gel
lar, in search Of his meat. and COM
menced digging as usual, but there was
no meat to be found. He laid himself
down a minute, as If in thought. and
then rushed upstairs, and, spying the
cat "went for her." and chased her all
around the store as closely as a police
officer in pursuit Of thief.

REMAIN UNCHANGED

Goldbeaters' T00ls and Cooks Caps a.
They We're In Ancient Times.
In almost every kind of trade known
to man the years have brought mani
fold charges in the way Of tools, i'm.
proved machinery, advanced ideas as
to the manipulation Of material and
numberless aids from the fields Of
science, the workshop Of the chemist,
the inventor and the artist. But there
is one trade in which no advance has
been made and that il in the gOldbeat-
er's trade. The same tools and the
same appliances are used now as In the
days when Solomon built his temple
and the art fiourished in ancient times
When Tyre and Sidon ruled the seas,
when Carthage disputed with Rome the
supremacy of the world, the goldbeat-
ers Of those days worked with the same
implements as those used nOwadays
1t Is very singular thing that In all
this endless change, this rearranging
and shifting, the gOldbeaters' trade
should still be conducted on its ancient
basis and stand primitive in relations
to the other trades and arts that have
progressed SO steadily and Importantly
Another curious feature of the trades IL
the badge Of the cooks cap. 1t Is the
same cap nowadays as the cap worn
by the cooks who served up nightin-
gales brains for Lucullus, Vitellius and
the Roman epicures. The cooks Of the
days Of Shakespeare, of Charlemagne,
Of all ancient time, wore the same
shaped headgear-the inevitable cooks
cap that the chef Of a fashionable mod
ern hotel wears. The times change and
people change with them, but in this
labyrinthian moving and changing II
must be remembered that there still
exist two symbols sent down through
the ages as they were in the beginning.

Even queens must learn from expe-
rience. When Queen Victoria was
little girl she was once paying a visit
TO q nobleman, and In walking around
the grounds ran on in advance Of the
royal party. One Of the gardeners told
the little princess that the path she
was walking ON was very "slape"
''Slape. slape? said she. "and pray
what is 'slapeT"
The man explained that "slape"
meant slippery.
But. not needing the warning, the
little girl went along the path and fell
down. Seeing what had happened, the
uobleman said to her:
"NOw, your royal highness has an ex-
PLANTATION Of the term 'slape.'"
"Yes. my lord" She replied. Il think

The man who minds his own busi-
ness will always have something to do.
Step where God tells you to. and you
will find your foot planted ON the rock.
The prayer that comes from . broken
heart goes straight to the heart Of God.
The more grateful we are for our
blessings, the smaller our trials will
look.
II God gives US much to do or endure
1t means that he will also give NJ much
grace.
If we do too much for our children
they will never be able to do much for
themselves.
1t Is hard to convince some preach
ers that they are not needed most
where the pay is the best.
1t would puzzle an angel to make out
what some people mean when they
say, Thy kingdom come"
Heavens windows are still waiting
to fly open for the man who will take
the last tithe to the stOrehouse.
There is nothing in the Bible to en-
courage anybody in thinking that he
can be saved by his own good works.
The preacher whose only usefulness
lies in his ability to cure insomnia in
his hearers, has misunderstood his call.
There is much praying done In pub
lie and private that falls short Of
genuine calling on the name Of the
Lord.
Men have no patience with the man
who fails at a vital point, but God
bears with him, and gives him another
chance.
One Of the biggest fools In the world
Is the man who links the devil won't
get him because his wife belongs to
church.
Many a man who begins what he
considers a promising Journey in the
Jericho road, meets the robbers at the
first bend.
There is something wrong with the
man who goes home from church mad,
whenever the preaching IL aimed
sQuarely at the face of sin.

But Jack won't smile that way;
His mind will just 20 fitting back

And oh, so very wise,
When he was grnnny's white-haired boz,
A-dreaming of the skies.

ITO Jack, away from home,
Granny says get ready
For the kingdom come"
Somehow the letters that we get
Don't seem TO come from him;
And often when I've read them through
My poor old eyes are dim.
He talks too much of worldly things
Our Jack was never proud
Of men of wealth, of power and fame,
And going with the crowd.
So write out clear and let it read
ITO Jack, away from home,
Granny says get ready
For the kingdom come"
You think his birthday calls for more
Than such n simple line;
Nay, there are those who love him less
To make him wishes fine.
My words 20 from faithful heart;
They're tender, true and warm;
With loving wisdom in them, too,
To keep my boy from harm.
So write out clear, and let it read
ITO Jack. away from home,
Granny says get ready
For the kingdom come"
I'd like to see him as he reads,
His bright eyes brimming Ger,
And good thoughts rising white and
strong,
To be forgot no more.
Heaven will be nearer to his heart
Than II has been for years,
For he will read in that one line
My love. my hopes, my prayers.
So write out clear, and let it read
ITO Jack. away from home,
Granny says get ready
For the kingdom come"

you to know that some Of this tea is

tie Of 1t and several Of the old families
Of Dorchester have small packages Of
it-and they are very proud Of them,
too.
You see, the tea was sent to Gov.
Hutchinson and there was 30 much Of
1t thrown overheard that 1t aoated
down the river and the next morning
some Of 1t was recovered by people

Tho WaiE

The waiG
Just q lonely little maiden from the city's
dust and heat,
A homeless, lonely little waif with blue
eyes sad and sweet:
No fathers hand with thoughtful care the
little life had blessed,
No mothers touch of love had s'er the
tangled hair caressed.
Her ears had heard sins blasphemies, her
cheeks had felt it's blows,
And in the wide, wide city she had lived
Just how, God knows.
But now, out to the country-kind hearts
had planned the way
She rode to breathe the summer breath a
fortnight and a day.
oh. Joy of all that journey! and sweeter
Joy to come
When Farmer Stebbins took her to his
pleasant upland home.
The wide, oldfashioned wagon was .
chariot with wings,
And the big house on the hillside looked
grander than Q kings.
All the beaming bliss of sunshine. all the
woodlands song and stir,
All the bloom of rural beauty was para.
disc to her.
And the hum of bees that wandered in the
daisy fields all day
Was music of another world that stole her
heart away.
She knew the spreading maple that the
robins loved the best.
She found the clump of grasses where tha
ground bird hid its nest,
And when the wind at evening whispered
thro' the orchard boughs
She went with Farmer Stebbins to help
drive home the cows.
And when, at quiet bedtime, with touch
of tender care
Kind Mother Stebbins' gentle hand brush.
ed back the tangled hair,
One little heart with happiness was full
and running DER,
One littlo soul was filled with love till it
could hold no more.
Too soon the visit ended, the parting time
drew nigh,
She kissed kind Mother Stebbins, bid the
birds and bees Good-by.
And climbed into the wagon With Its wide,
old-fashioned seat,
Once more a homeless little waif with blue
eyes sad and sweet.
But when they reached the station and
heard the whistles blast,
Around the farmers sunbrowned neck
two little arms clung fast.
Don't send me back. Don't send me!'
the sobbing creature said,
And Farmer Stehbins swallowed hard,
then bent his bushy head,
And soft unloosed the clinging arms and
put the grieyed child down;
He stopped and kissed the tear-stained
face and smoothed the hair Of
brown;
And then-the long train sped away
around a distant hill,
But a happy brown-haired maiden stays
with Farmer Stebbins still.
