STORY TELLER'S LOST CHANCE
Had "a Good Yarn, But Missed n Most
Glorious Opportunity to 1m-
prove ON 1t.

DR.. Joseph Walsh, of the University
of Pennsylvania saw the Passion Play
at Oberanmcrgau, and one evening
lately he entertained II party of friends
with his impressions of the spectacle,
relates the Philadelphia Record. Zone
day while we were staying there" he
said, my sister and 1 were standing
on bridge that crossed stream,
when we noticed picturesque Tyro-
lean peasant on the bank. He was
big, handsome fellow-as handsome a
specimen Of physical manhood as
think haze ever seen. He saw that
we were watching him, and he returned
the compliment by sizing us up, and
smiling. My sister was carrying a
parasol, and this slipped from her hand
and fell into the stream below.
The big peasant, without mo-
mcnts hesitation, waded out into the
water. rescued the parasol, and re-
turned ii to u.s. We learned later that
he was one Of the Passion Play actors,
taking the character of ST. John. Quite
an interesting experience, wasn't it?"
"Oh. don't know" remarked one of
the doctors friends. whose bump of
veneration is not largely developed.
"lf had been telling the story Should
have made the fellow play the nart of
ST. Peter In that case he might have
simply walked out on the water for the
parasol instead OF wa,.ins in and get
ting wet"

HANDSOME GIFT FOR CZARINA.
Pleof of Rare GObcItn Tapestry Pre-
scented by Former President
Fuure of France,

When the cZar and czarina were in
Paris few years ago they visited
during one afternoon the wonderful
collection of Gobelin tapestries, and,
as one piece after another was shown
them, they did not fail to express
their warm admiration. The czarina
was especially captiyated by one splen-
lid specimen of art work-a gorgeous
strip of tapestry representing Marie
Antoinette and her children. She
studied it long and earnestly, and then
praised it so highly that Felix Faure,
who was at that time president of the
French republic and who accompanied
the two sovereigns, politely remarked
that it would give the French people
much pleasure if her majesty would
'deign to accept this piece of tapestry
as gift from them, says the New
York Herald.
The czarina thanked him, and Presi-
dent Faure at once prepared to carry
out his promise. As the Gobelin tap
estries are national property he knew
that some formal action would be

Parents and teachers are noticing
and commenting on the fact that chill
dren have made wonderful progress
in geography in the last three years
War has done this. 1t has stimulated
the desire for knowledge, and the at
las has been frequently consulted to
learn the relative positions of places
and geographical names involved in
battle. Though this Is particularly
true with children, it also applies to
grown persons. Many both in school
and out would have had to acknowl-
edge great ignorance Of the Philip
pines, West Indies, the Transvaal and
China three years ago, while now
they are able to draw tolerably cor

There can be no doubt that the re.

acutely felt in this country than ever
before. Larger gifts are made in
larger way as fortunes increase in size
and number. And we are glad to
think that it is not pressure from with.
out so much as humane impulses from
within which stimulates to generosity,
says the New York Post. Wealth
sees poverty and need and stunted
lives and unrelieved misery about It

In a number of places this form of

Of game ferrets are run through the
