Had Never Slept iu a Bed

Many pathetic stories are told in con-
| nection with the work of the fresh air
| societies of New York city. A few weeks
ago little boy WAS taken away from the
brick wallis and damp rooms for a while,
and sent to the country. He reached his
destination in the evening and was at
| once put to bed; that is, he was left IN
| his room and tod TO go to bed, SO he
cram4ed Up on tue outside and lay down
on the coverlet for few minutes.
1t was rare moment and he closed his
eyes, while his head swan with ecstasy.
The bedclothes were all underneath ,
for their mission in life he did rot under
stand and it WAS cold, but he cared not h
ing for that. He was sleeping in a bed, a
"really and truly" bed with pillow on
it, and what mattered it, under such cir
cumstances, whether the mercury stood
at zero or the boiling point? Then habit
told. A creeping suspicion seized him
that all was not right. Who had told
him he might sleep in the bed, and what
reason was there why the rightful owner
should not soon appear and demand his
own? No, such luxury as this could not
be possib place was on the floor,
and he should have known it long before.
Slowly and sadly he crept down.
The next morning, when the sunlight
was streaming in the window, the aston
ished farmers wife found her little guest
curled up on the floor, while the bed lay
untouched.
"For the lands sake!" she exclaimed.
Then she picked him up and laid him,
still asleep, on the bed, while she care
fully tucked him in.
swell, who'd thought it! wonder if
the poor little mite knows what bed is?'
She had good cause for wonder, for it
took her half day to convince her guest
that he and nobody else was to sleep in
the bed, and that that was what it was
meant for,

| can machnery-if America recognizes its
| Pacific portance-wil develop the vast
mineral and agricultural possibilities of
China This viii be effected by the great
civiillers steam, electricity, mechanics
and breadth OF Information.
1t is, OF course, 100 much to hope that
the revolution of thought and of manners
that are surely coming to China will be
brought to successful issue without
some violence and some protest. The way
that the Coreans destroyed a few weeks
ago the trolley line on which they were
asked to spend their leash y will illustrate
what | mean. There will undoubtedly
also be religious trouble; the likelihood of
which must be duly remembered by the
diplomatists of the newer civilizations.
Properly managed, nevertheless, this can
be largely avoided if the English methods
in India prevail in China; for as in India,
so in China, there are strong denomina-
tional feelings that can be, as it were,
played against each other to produce social
quiet.
Just as with human beings, no matter
how great the one nor humble the other,
so is it with the mingling of nations. 1t
never can be all "give" or all stake" on
either side. II the new century is to see
modern nations kindling a light in Asia,
that new century will see those nations
also learning to read some lessons from
THE Light of Asia. If we are led to
have fuller reverence for our elders and for
the dead and their deeds, and if we recog-
nize the value of an educational test for
political fitness it will be we'll.

Like IL kentucky Feud.

/ story reading more like one Of the
celebrated Kentucky ieuds than that of a
settlement among the Maine pines, comes
from the little plantation of Sheridan, in
Aroostook county, where an eighty-year-
old father, aided and abetted by the
mother, is charged with he cold bIooded
murder of their SON
Sheridan plantation WAS settled years
ago by two families, one named Oakes
and the other York. These families inter
married, and within the last few years
family quarres led up to feud in which
the two families were about evenly
divided. Oliver Cakes lived in the house
opposite that of his brother Eli, who
cared for the old father and mother Of
the Cakes family, Abner Oa,.es and wife.
Oliver had not visited his parents for
years, and bitter enmity existed between
the parents and their son.
Last Thursday morning Oliver Cakes
walked across his fathers land. The old
man saw him, and set the dog on him,
the father following at sofne distance.
The son protested against the action and
hot words ensued, Tie two men pro-
eeeded toward the house quarreling.
When they reached the door, Abuer
Cakes rushed in, but real peared almost
instantly with II shot gun which he fired
Mt his son. The shot missed, whereupon
Mrs. Cakes, who had heard a part of the
qrarrel, stepped out WIKI rifle and
passed 1t - her husband, who took de-
lhprate aim and shot his son through
the neck. The young man fell, appar-
emily instantly killed. The body rolled
into the ditch at the roadside. The man
and woman turned to the house without
paying further attention to the victim,
and it was several hours before a neigh
Dor passing that way, saw the body and
looked into the case.
Abuer Cakes and his wife are now
under arrest.
