At the Philadelphia free library
books are circulated more economical
ly than in any other library in the
world, it is said. The cost is seven cents

1t will be news to most Americans to
know that the Royal academy of Great
Britain owes its foundation to an
American Benjamin West, whose con-
nection with it is outlined in the Liter

1t is not generally known that it was
the historian Thomas E. Watson, Of
Georgia, who introduced into the house

to appropriate money to carry out the

Otto Chichester, three times mayor
of Bremen, made that city seaport

especially being an excellent specimen
of workmanship.

WOMAN'S SOCIAL POWER.
When Exercised In the Right Direc-

Entire Community.

The power and influence that woman
possesses socially is something for
which she should be grateful and use
to the best advantage. To some taste
full woman with truly social spirit
NAV be given the credit of making
many a community what it is. Passing

building is accredited to socially in

the gracious gift of kindliness. She
had a winning way, and noticed that
GREAT many strangers came to the
church never to return. She made
IN her mind that she would make them
feel at home. She took her position at
the close of service near the door and
erected the strangers with a cordial
handclasp and explained she was the
Dastor's wife and that he would gladly
call on them if they would leave their
addresses. She had a charming per-
sonalitv. and followed successfully
this plan till the old church, which was
almost dead, became filed with
strong social and spiritual power, and
people recognized it as social 'hand-

handshake, stood as a monument of
humanity at its best.

INvALID'S GREAT WORK.
nOIs Girl Supports Ten Mission
airy Workers.

1t has been said that suffering often
iberates and reveals the forces of the
soul. A phenomenal instance of this is
found in the little city of Casey, ILL.,, in
the person and life of Miss Lizzie L.
johnson. Her struggle for IS years
with mortal disease is something more
than impressive.
At about IS years of age severe ILL
ness came upon her which developed
into a permanent affection of spinal
character extending to all the nerve
centers. For IS years she has been laid
on her back wholly unable to leave her
bed. She has the free use of her arms
and head, also some use of the limbs,
but her body is confined to one posi-
ton.
Nose who have known her from her
childhood, especially from the begin
ming of her affection. find it difficult to
realize the magnitude of the work she
is now doing and has been doing for
number of years. They feel that they
have never seen suffering and weari-
ness and the monotony of lying in one
position continuously so entirely over
come and treated al if they were not.
The nature of her affection renders
her at times intensely sensitive to the
slightest noise or the presence of per-
sons in her room, or any touch of her
bed. This painful acuteness is not
constant; there are times of compare
tive rest from this. though at all times
the sense of touch is abnormally de-
veloped.
She has a magnetic personality, a
fine, receptive mind, large originality
and beautiful Christian spirit Not
word of complaint or touch of re-
belliousness escapes her lips. The
theme that lies nearest her heart is
Christian missions. and in this field she
is doing a great work. She began in
1894 on $50 borrowed capital. Up to
date the gross receipts aggregate So
600. She supports in India five pastor
teachers, besides two Bible women.
She provides the money to support
three scholarships for three young
men in Chinzei seminary, Nagasaki,
Japan. She provides for two Bible

Eugene has one odd expectation.
She is said to believe firmly that she
will live to be at least 100 years old.
81 have nothing to live for" the sad
faced woman of "A says, "hence I know
1 shall just keep on living"
And so she will, probab bly,, for she has
no illnesses as yet, is active and fond of
all outdoor exercises. Eugene has
been so much on the water that she has
acquired the sailors rudy color, and
much of her strength in old age is due
to her love for bracing sea air. People
who saw this lady in the days of her
prime will remember her strangely
beautiful eyes, Eugene eyes, they
were called. An unusual type they
were, and are, the eyelids dropping so
low as to give an arched look to the
dark eyes, which are bright, almost
glowing still. Eugenie's eyes were al
ways her marked claim to great beau
ty, although she is described at the
time of her marriage as having been
lovely beyond words in every line of
race ana form.

years at Chislehurst, but she has re-
Gently moved to Marlborough, farther

ever, than the homes of many less his

house are kept as shrines. Relics of the
first Napoleon fill the one; belongings
sacred to the memory of Eugenie's
husband are kept in another; the play
things of the prince imperial and the
trappings of the horse from which he
fell to die, together with little childish
things of eternal Importance to moth

life of contrast indeed, is that of
Eugene, empress of the French. She
has seen all that is brilliant in the
court life of France and has known
what it means to be childless widow,
remembered occasionally, but more
frequently forgotten. The mother of
the empress must herself have been
amazed at her daughters career. She,
the mother, was the child of an Irish
man who settled in Spain and dealt in
wine 4 Spanish duke came along and
married Miss Maria Kirkpatrick, the
wine merchants daughter, and it was
the child of this marriage, the beauti-
full Eugene, who completely infatuat-

By Proxy
By
MARTHA N. WILLIAMS.


IT Ellen came in gustily, banging
the door behind her. Miss Prue
only sighed-she was too gentle to
scowl.
She had opened her heart as well as
her house to her brothers orphaned
daughter, who had come to her with
a moving tale of a stepfather's cruelty
and hardness. Helen had at first been
as winning as the south wind Latterly
Miss Prue had been finding out that
there was something to be said on the
stepfather's side.
Helen had conscience, but it was
active only in regard to her own
wrongs. All her pity and sympathy
went out to herself, for what she called
her mothers neglect of her and the
shameful spite of Fate in making her
poor, when she herself knew she was
meant to be rich.
She did not speak until she had
thrust the cat from in front of the
fire and set her feet upon the fender
AS Miss Prue rang for lights, Helen
said over her shoulder: "Such mess!
Aunt Prue, why didn't you tell me what
to expect"
How could i? L do not visit the
Jillsons," Miss Prue said, involuntar-
lily lifting her head. The Jillsons were
loud, newly rich people, who had
bought the Apsley place six months
back, and had been bent on dazzling
their neighbors ever since.
''You must have known what this
kettle-drum would be-and how it
would go-slow and nasty and. sticky
like cold mOlasses," Helen protested.
Miss Prue gave her a searching look,
and answered: please remember,
Helen, you choose to make friends
with the Jillsons over my protest.

sorry as to find you caviling at hospi-

there-doing everything for every
body" Helen retorted. What is more,
your other paragon was at his heels
most of the time"
''If you mean Jane Manners, she
could not very well stay away. You
know the Jillsons offered to get up
this entertainment for the help of her
poor people," Miss Prue said, flushing
q little. Jane asked me what to do.
She hated to accept their offer, but
how could she refuse with winter at
hand and money so badly needed?"
"Oh, 1 see! Your eXclusiveness and
fine breeding are for sale-in sweet
charity's name!" Helen sneered.
"Well, they fetched a good price. Lot
tie Jillson shouted loud enough for
everybody to hear: The tables ware
shore to make a hundred dollars-and
all clear gain-paw had done paid for
the music and the refreshments, be-
sides saving hall rent"
"Please stop, Heleni You cannot
mimic your hosts in my house." Miss
Prue said.
Helen sprang up, her eyes blazing.
'You will by making me hate you,
Aunt Prue!" she cried, stamping her
foot. ''You care nothing for me
your own flesh and blood. You won't
help me the least bit. You could help
me-O, so muchl You had better do it!
Unless 1 marry Robby Walters won't
take anybody There-it's all OutI
You have known all along, yet have
done your best to keep him away from
me. 1 believe you want him to take
that Scrawny Manners thing instead"
She broke down into stormy sobbing.
Miss Prue's hands clinched upon her
knitting needles. She had known
but had never dreamed anything of her
own flesh and blood could speak so lit
tie like a gentlewoman. If real love
had been back of the outburst she
would have been infinitely pitiful to-
ward the outbreaker. But she knew
Helen loved only Robby's fortune.
Robby was the son of Miss Prue's
heart-she had loved his father and
been parted from him through fool
ish lovers quarrel. Robby, orphaned
while still in her short frocks, had been
brought up by his grandmother, who
was. Miss Prue's next neighbor. After
the grandmother died he lived on in
the old homestead, and gave to his

WHAT PA REMEMBERS.

A very model boy;
He never caused his parents grief.
But was their pride and joy.
He says that he was good in church
And studied hard in school;
And never eft" with wicked bows.
But lived the golden rule.
He never slid the bannister.
Nor tracked the entry floor;
He went on errands joyfully,
And never slammed the door.
He never ate green apples, and
He never stoned a cat,
Nor teased small girls; and never once
Played football with his hat.
He never stole the jam and cake.
Nor acted mad, nor cried
When he got hurt, but all the time
To do just right he tried
My pa says that!-But ma, she saws.
So early die the good,
How pa grew up to middle age
