covered and the groom went to his own
wedding on time.
A SEATTLE railroad man whose youth
n was passed in the highlands Of Scot
land. gives this "reminiscences OF his
boyhood days:
In the Scotch rural parishes many Of the
country folk come for miles to attend Sum
day services, and each worshiper's collie
always accompanied his master and was
admitted to the sacred edifce. Hence
there was frequently a numerous collec-
ton of dogs in the rear Of the church. The
FAITHFUL creatures maintained decorum
through the preaching service, generally
following the example of some OF the con-
gregation in passing the hour in peaceful
slumber.
At the close Of the sermon the shufflinE
of feet and the rustling of gowns, as the
men and women stood for the benediction,
aroused the dogs, who rose jubilant at the
prospect of starting homeward. and their
stretching, yawning and the rap-rap-rap OF
often disturbed the solemn quiet Of the
moment.
The honest people, talking together over
the matter by themselves, decided that on
the following Sunday they would keep
their seats until the very end Of the SER
vice In order to avoid the distracting con-
fusion consequent upon the actions OF the
canine portion of the assemblage. This
determination was carried out the next
Lords day, but unfortunately the worthy
Scotchmen had forgotten to mention their
intention to their pastor.
When, therefore, at the conclusion OF
the morning sermon. the clergyman
spread abroad his hands, not person In
the church arose to receive the blessing.
The good man was mystified, and not
little shocked at this apparent sudden and
unanimous disregard of the traditions OF
churchly propriety, and there was mo-
ment's pause. Then, in the silence that
filed the little chapel, an ancient shep-
herd stumbled onto his feet, and said:
"Oh-ah, If you please. Mister Tharnton,
we was a-setten still to cheat the dargs"

the deacon of a church in Eastern WASH
ington, he was compelled to cut short his
usual Sunday morning nap and attend
church.
Lingering recollections of his boyhood
days helped the detective along quite well
until the service was fairly under way He
kept a careful watch on his friend, the
deacon, and faithfully followed all his
leads" as he expressed 1t. The result was
that he was guilty OF no glazing breach of
decorum until the plate was passed for
contributions.
Unfortunately for the detective, he was
under the gum" That is the phrase the
policemen use in telling the story. mean
ing, as they say, that 'ft was Mikes first
say" Powers was leaning back in his
pew, deep in religious meditation, when he
was disturbed by the plate. He was some
what taken back at seeing the platter full
of small change beneath his nose, but in
an instant his wits xere recovered:
II guess this will pass me along, young
fellow" said he to the solemn faced indi-
vidual holding the plate, at the same time
throwing back his coat and displaying his
detectives star.
The young man, the story goes, dropped
the plate in CONSERVATION, and Powers
spent the rest of the day in explaining to
the deacon how it happened. II thought
1t was street car" said he by way of
apology.

Since so many people use pure glycer
in for the skin a word of caution seems
necessary. If you apply a little glycer
in TO the tip of the tongue you will
find that. although II has a pleasant
sweet taste, the first sensation that is
felt is one of pain and burning. This
is caused by the fact that glycerin has
a strong affinity for water and that il
absorbs all the moisture from the sur
face which il touches. thus drying up
and parching the nerves. Ignorant of
this fact. nurses and mothers have ap-
piled pure glycerin to the chafed skin
of infants. producing often great pain

The Chinese are remarkably fond of
the drama. and consequently every vii
iage has its stage. In this way the
people are educated in the past history
Of their nation. The stage arrange
ments are about on a par with those
which existed in England at the time
OF Shakespeare. There Is no scenery.
and consequently the success of the
piece depends entirely on the acting,
which is remarkably good.
Actresses do not exist in China, for
since, some centuries ago, an emperor
married an actress they have not been
allowed. Women's parts are taken by
boys, who excel in their limitations of
women's voices. gait and general de-
pertinent.
Perhaps 1t is their theatrical repre-
sentations which render Cinnamon SO
content with rural life. At any rate,
instead of crowding into towns from
the country they are happy to work on
the land, which supplies them with all
that is needful for food and clothing.
There are no native factories, indus
tries being still in the cottage stage,
and agriculture employs more people
than any sort of trade.-Collier's Week
