The Child confuclus.

Nearly three thousand years ago in far
on China, lived little boy who became
man so learned and good THAI the
story OF his life and teachings has come
down through the ages.
When this COniucius was only 4 years
old, he was so eager for knowledge, and
so fond Of teaching others, and SO wise
In all his behavior, that every one was
amazed.
One day, when he was only 6, the lit
tie Confucius was sitting in the garden
alone with his book and his pet kitten.
Just the other side OF low hedge which
grew between the family garden and
that or the servants, he saw the little
child OF the gardener kicking no its
heels in the middle Of the grass plat
where its mother had left it. The little
Confucius watched the pretty child q
few minutes, then returned to his book.
But all at once as he glanced toward
the baby again, he saw 1t making with
all its tiny speed for a huge china basin
full OF water which was always kent
there from which to water the Towers.
In the space of a moment the little one
crept to the very edge, spied It's own face
in the water, and popped heels over head
into the basin before Confucius had time
tc realize the danger.
He sprang over the low hedge, scream
Ing for help. The little head was still
above water, but in an instant sank,
and only tiny arm and light dress
were to be seen. The boy, still scream
ing, ran round and round the basin
bending as far as he could over the top,
trying in vain to catch the little hand.
Then he stretched out both hands to-
wards the setting sun as If asking help,
and suddenly thought came to him as
II in answer Gathering up some big
stones lying beside the path, he dashed
them with all his might against the
china basin, which broke at once in
pieces, like so much glass. The water
ran out in streams, and in a moment the
child was safe, crying, to be sure but
only from fright.
The little ConfuCius was leading him
to his mothers house when he met his
own father coming to look for him.
The boy had never been scolded in his
life; but, when he thought all at once
how costly the great china basin which
he had broken must have been, his heart
misgave him. But he told what he had
done; and instead of being reprimanded,
he found himself in his fathers arms,
and his father said, Il praise you, my
child"
The little Chinese life-saVer became,
as we have said the teacher and guide
Of his people, hOnored through the world
for more than tWentY-hVe centuries -

What dreary day this isl" said the
ID gray goose to the brown hen, as they
stood at the hen house window, and
watched the falling snow which covered

A Dog at the Telephone.

One morning not long ago, my sister
went to see friend who lived a mile or
so from the rectory, taking with her our
little brown cOcker-spaniel When she
left, she quite forgot the dog; and as
soon as our friend discovered him, they
did all they could to make him leave,
but with no avail. Some hours passed
and he was still there. So they tele-
phoned to let us know his whereabouts.
Bring him to the telephone" said my
sister. One Of the boys held him. while
another put the trumpet to the dogs
ear Then my sister whistled, and called,
Gene home at once, Paddy" Imme-
dlately he wriggled off of the boys arms,
rushed at the door, barking to get out,
and shortly afterward arrived, painting

The war against gum-chewing begun
by Bishop Vincent of the Methodist
Episcopal church is the result of too
much thought on very cheap sub
Ject The bishop thinks that to resist
gum is to prepare the young for self
sacrifice of more important kind. If
they forego gum they will omit liquor,
and If they let that alone they will
let alone other things equally as bad.
1t is logic, but it is foolishness. And,
strange as it seems, the bishop is ac-
tually in earnest

used upward Of $500 ordinary match
boxes and SIC boxes that contained
small wax vestas. The only other
thing he used was Eve pounds Of glue.
Originality seems to run in the Roberts
family, for marvellous model of the
great Laxey wheel, in the Isle of Man,
was made by Miss L. w. Roberts, sis
ter to the designer of the piano. THE
Laxey wheel" writes Mr.. Roberts, was
six feet in length and four feet high.
1t took a little less than six months to
make it, and used up about 5000 match
boxes" In some cases more than one
competitor took the same original for
his model. For instance, the Laxey
wheel was also adopted by Mr. James
Shaw, of No. Sc Dickinson street, Not
tingham. Mr.. Shaw's model, which
won the second prize, was no less than
six feet seven and one-quarter inches
in height, two feet in depth and eight
feet in length. 1t contained $4,000
boxes and took five months to com
plete. The wheel itself was five feet
six inches in diameter and went by
clockwork. Mr.. F. Marshall, of Not
tingham, gained prize in the second
competition with a faithful reproduce
ton of the Forth bridge. He also con-
structed an Eiffel bicycle. When com
plete this model was in full working
order. 1t contains LOO match boxes
and stands little more than six feet
in height. The diamond stays are two
boxes thick. The driving chain is nine
feet long, and was made from the sides
of the matchbox drawers, glued on to
tape. The wheels are twenty-four
inches in diameter. Another model of
Mr.. Marshall's was a reproduction of
the lighthouse near New Brighton.
This model was fitted with a revolving
lantern, and the whole contained 1900
match boxes.-London Strand.

the things he says in an interview: st

is impossible to do one-half the work of

lately thus irreverently defined the
game for the benefit of the English
Judge who was hearing a case invoiv-
ing the playing Of golf: "I believe,
my lord, that the game of golf is played
in irregular fields or waste grounds
with small ball which the player
tries to hit with a stick. If he sue
ceeds in hitting the ball he spends the

the solemn-faoed golfer this description
of the pastime must seem like trifiing
