Two Yarns Told

There are few physicians who could
not tell some amusing yarns about
their experiences during the vaccina-
tlon period. A Roxbury, Mass. doctor
told this one the other day; "A brawny
wage-earner put in his appearance and
barred his arm. VIII II hurt?' he ask
ed. oh, II will tickle a little. re-
Piled | thereupon scratched his arm,
When the operation was over he said:
That was a hi Of tickle"
A domestic called upon doctor. She
was fine. buxon young woman and
her arm was one we'll calculated TO ex-
cite admiration, The physician could
not but compliment her on its beauty,
When she got home she was not lit
tie put out at what she called "his Inn

CHAPTER XVI.

The moon was shining bright and
clear; the stars had gone to rest leay-
ing sentinel over the sleeping constel-
latlons that one acknowledged planet
the Kirkstall folk had looked upon as
the star of Bethlehem, when Mary
Lockwood laid herself at the foot Of
the awful tree and fell asleep.
Had her cruel destiny in, Its natural
sequence of events led her thereY Had
the inspiration of her love brought her,
in pathetic sympathy, to the feet OF
him at whose grim altar she should
complete her moral sacrifice? Was H.
pagan sacrifice? Or was 1t the OUT
come OF the Divine love that was above
all love, the Divine mercy which had
received the penitent words Of the sim
ner in those last moments Of York jail,
and selected this gracious time to give
them sign OF His Fatheriy sympathy
and mercy? May 1t not be that under
this celestial inspiration His angels
seeking supreme opportunity to sig
nalize the blessed eye--had interceded
for both the loved and the lost, and,
purifying the grim sign Of mans stern
Justice, scattering the evil birds Of hell,
had brought poor Mary where they
had found her, to transform that
wretched symbol of mans unforgivlng
creed into a ladder Of angel gold upon
which she passed in their sublime COM
pany to the sunny land Of everlasting
peace.
1t was in some such strain that the
parson preached on Christmas eve,
seeking to enforce the Christian doc
trine, that even for such as he, whose
body was a black and stained thing,
there might be salvation; and perhaps
through the unconscious intercession
4 Of their poor. distraught sister. who
had called the heavenly hosts to that
modern crucifxion of the modern thief,
in blind hope that, as Christ had
opened the gates of heaven to the peni-
tent thief on the cross, so in His IL,
finite goodness might He open them to
herself and her betrayer-to, him by
reason Of her love for him; to her by
reason of her sufferlngs and her life
all pure and true until he had crossed
her path. II the preacher drew long
draft on their imaginations and hopes
and enforced his text with flights Of
religious fancy that may seem out Of
place in these prosaic days, It is still
! permitted for us to hope that the an
gels did take the place Of the birds Of
evil strain and bear the suffering Mary
to that other world. where the wicked
cease from troubling and the weary are
at rest.

Worlds Finest Picture

The Duke OF Marlborough is believed
to be the possessor OF the costliest
painting In the world. which was at
one time the property OF the first Duke
OF Marlborough. The picture is known
as the "Blenheim Madonna" painted
by Raphael In 1907. and now valued
at no less than s35o.00O. It is eight
feet high, and represents the Madonna
and Child seated on throne. with q
figure OF John the Baptist on the left
and that Of st. Nicholas OF Bari on the

to the fact that It Is one Of the best

Fire Engines

At Alba, Ore, many partners in the
self-propelling nre engines In the
country. These in the Boston (Mass.)
department have been In service since
1897. and have proved of great value.
Each weighs nearly nine tons. but are
easier to handle than those drawn by
horses. They answer alarms, and are
much better hill climbers than the
horse engines. The largest size en-
gines throw an average Of $40 gallons
minute, about twice the amount Of
water thrown by the average horse
engine.
