Those below heard him cry, 1--WE got
him!" Then the figure disappeared.
Instantly it returned, bearing some
thing in its arms. 1t was the limp
form of child.
All saw the man wrap smoking
straw round the little body and tie
round that two strands of heavy twine.
Then that precious burden was low
cred out of the window. The father
rushed forward and held up his arms
to receive it.
Another foot-he hugged the limp
body of his boy to his breast! On the
ground little way back lay woman,
as il dead.
Here's the ladder!' cried the fore
man, and at that moment the eyes that
were still turned upon the window,
where stood man in q dingy gray
suit, witnessed a spectacle that will
reappear before them again and again
in visions of the night.
The coat the man wore was ablaze
Flames shot out on either side of him
and above him. Just as the ladder was
placed against the wall, Il cracking
was heard-not the cracking of fire.

not wonderful to the warden if, when

The Rev. John Haynes was famous
for his plthy sayings. At one time he
overheard his daughter and some
young friends criticising certain neigh
bors more severely than was pleasing
to him, whereupon he proceeded to
read them lecture on the sinfulness
of scandal.
But, father" demonstrated his
daughter, 1--WE must say something"
''If you can do nothing better" re-
torted Mr.. Haynes, dryly, get a
pumpkin and roll it about. That will
be at least an innocent diversion"
Not long afterward a conference of
ministers met at his house. During
the evening an earnest discussion on
certain points of doctrine arose, and
from the lofty pitch of some of the
voices it seemed as If part of the dis
putants, at least, were in danger of
losing their temper.
At that juncture Mr.. Haynes's daugh-
ter quietly entered the room, bearing a
huge pumpkin. She put it down in
front of her father and said, "There,
father, roll it about; roll it about"
Mr.. Haynes was called upon for an
explanation, and good humor was re-
stored.

key After heavy rain the sparrow,
snug and dry in its warm nest, saw
the monkey shaking his dripping body,
and could not refrain from addressing
him thus: "Comrade, your hands are
skillful, your strength great, your in
tellect clever; why do you live in such
a miserable state? Why not build a
snug nest like mine"
The monkey, angered at the COM
placency of the sparrow, replied: "Am

you? Your nest is snug, is it?" and so
saying he threw the nest to the ground.
Moral: Don't talk with passionate

College Liie-lIs Tone improved.

The era OF bathtubs and sanitation
and good living has had its effect upon
American youth. To-day if young Ben
Franklin should come to Philadelphia
to try his fortunes it is quite likely that
he would not march up the street
munching his cheap loaf, but would be
riding comfortably and handsomely in
an automobile toward a scholarship,
possibly pausing on his way to get
well-balanced luncheon at fashionable
cafe. The whole tone OF college life
has been wonderfully raised within the
past few wears, and if one desires to see
a set OF well-groomed young men he
should attend the opening proceedings
OF modern college. Their clothes are
not only new and well made, but their
compleXions are clear.-Saturday Even

Siberia has recently furnished a new
game-bird for the epicures of Europe.
1t is called the Siberian partridge, and
is found in the mountains south OF
Omsk, in Southern Siberia, but its orig
inal home is said to be Manchura.
Its principal food consists of wild nuts,
which give an exquisite flavor to its
flesh. These birds, which have be-
gun to appear by thousands in the
markets of London, are shot during
the winter and forwarded to England
by way of the Baltic Sea.

Through the insertion Of inductance
coils into the electrical circuit, Profess
sor Pupin, of Columbia University, has
greatly increased the efficiency of long
distance telephony through cables. The
insertion of the coils enables the cable
to transmit 6OOO times as much cur
rent as it is able to transmit without
them. With an experimental cable
thus provided, it has been found pos
sible to carry on a conversation dis
tinctly at distance of $50 miles. By
applying the principle to oceanic ca
bles, it is believed that telephone mes
sages might be sent to and fro across
the Atlantic. 1t would also greatly
increase the rapidity with which ordi-
nary telegraphic signals can be trans
mitted by cable. The principle is like
wise applicable for extending the
range of telephone communications
over aerial wires.

SHEETS OF BREAD.
Indian Women Bake Them in the Amer
lean Desert.

lean Desert.
If you wish to dine off a sheet of
bread, you must go to the great Am
erican desert and ask the women Of
the Moki Indians to bake it for you.
But if you are wise, you will not in
quire too closely into the details of
the process. The preparation of the
bread in sheets hardly thicker than
a sheet Of paper, is real art among
the Moki women. A corner in the
principal room is set aside for the ac-
commodation of shallow trough,
walled in with slabs of stone set on
end. The trough is divided into three
compartments, and in these the first
process Of bread-making takes place.
When bread is to be made, a girl
kneelS behind each compartment
Shelled corn is then put on the fiat
stone in the first compartment, and
with a coarse oblong stone the first
girl proceeds to rub it. The coarse
meal thus prepared is passed on to the
next compartment. Here it is again
rubbed with stone less coarse, and
passed on to the third stage. The re-
suit is decidedly foury meal. With
brush which is made of dried grass
bound together with string of cali
co, and with which the floor is swept
between times, the meal is then gath
cred up and mixed with water to
thick batter. Then comes in the art
of the baker. She takes a single
handful of the batter and spreads ii
over long, fiat stone, under which
fire has been for some time burning
The batter is made to cover thinly the
entire surface. When one side is bak-
ed she takes the bread by corner
and pulls it off dexterously, turning
it the other side up. When it is done
a long, fiat basket receives it, and the
baker turns the edges all around, SO
that the air can get at it. Sheet after
sheet is baked until the basket is piled
high with the blue bread, or "piki,"
which the baker pronounces "peka.r
No salt is used in the batter, and the
piki has sweetish taste. 1t is usual
ly blue, partaking of the color of the
corn from which it is made. 1t is eat
men go on journey they take pik
made into rolls, very much as one
would roll up a sheet of wet paper, the
bread being of about the same thick
ness as the paper. The stones upon
which the bread is baked are prepared
by the old women of the tribe with
great secrecy and much ceremony
They are very valuable, and are hand
ed down as heirlooms from mother to
daughter. The first stage in the pro-
cess, so says Popular Science News, is
smoothing and filling of the surface OF
the stone with hot pitch. 1t is then
smoked and rubbed for many days
with an accompaniment of rude chant
ing. AS far as white man may know
the first rubbing is with smooth
stone. the next with pieces of wood,
while the finishing work is done with
the bare hands. The result is a jet
black, smooth surface, to which the
piki does not stick in baking

In wheat throughout the session
there was disposition to get on an

this. Liverpool closed I'D higher in
