Harold,s Papa Was "shy.,

The proud young father, after the
manner of his kind, was telling stories
about the doings of his first-born.
Many trivial incidents had been re-
lated, and the little circle of listeners
had exhausted all their ingenuity in
pretending to be interested. Tell
them the story about the penny" sug-
gested the young hopeful's mother.
The proud father pretended not to
hear, then grew red, and finally shook
violent negative with his head.
Then I WILL exclaimed the baby's
mother. Its too cute for anything.
You know Harold will be two years old
next month, and we are now taking
him to church with US. His father al
ways gives him penny to put in the
collection plate. Well, last Sunday
the plate was being passed, and some
one dropped a coin on the floor. 1t
made quite a loud noise, and Harold
turned to me and asked, in a voice
loud enough to be heard all over the
church: Mamma, whose penny are
that?' Wasn't it the cutest thing?
Of course he thought that nobody
ever gave more than a penny because
that's all his papa ever gives him"
Then the proud young father blushed
more deeply than ever.-Philadelphia

! Mr.. Morton. During all his absence
she had not been to the Marble
Square services. She had attended
elsewhere, but had not been out in
the evening, going to her mothers
and spending the evening reading to
her. She had at present Rev. F. B.
Meyers book, "The Shepherd Psalm"
and both mother and daughter were
enjoying it very much.
She was reading the last chapter,
and even as she read she remembered
that this was the night when the
Christian Endeayor society at the
Marble Square church had the entire
service. There was no preaching aft
er the Endeavor meeting, which
| closed about eight o'clock.
1t was half-past eight as Barbara
| finished the beautiful narrative, and
her mother had thanked her and
made comments on the clearness of
the style and its spiritual helpful
| ness, when the bell rang.
They had so few visitors, espe-
cially on Sunday, that they were
startled by the sound. But Barbara
rose at once and went to the door.
When she opened it, she uttered
| an exclamation of establishment. For
Mr.. Morton was standing there! His
face was pale, and even stern, Bar
bara imagined, as he stood there.
MAY 1 come in?' he said quietly,
as Barbara stood still. 81 want very
much to see you and your mother"
Barbara murmured a word of apol-
ogy, and then invited him to enter.
Mrs. Clark rose to greet him, and
the minister took the seat she prof
| fered him.

An Emergency Case.

The doctor in charge of the school
had always laughed at the idea of our
ever making practical use of our
First Aid to the Injured" lessons. He
had muttered some thing about 'shoe-
makers sticking to their lasts" and
then had said: s'You teach the chill
dren-that's your line, and wait for
me to come if anything happens"
Therefore when our delicate little
Mamie fell downstairs we had not
merely the desire to give her imme-
date relief, but also deep-seated
but unspoken wish to show that man
that we could do something. Mamie
had murmured: MY ankle-I twisted
my ankle before she tainted. To
bind it then might help, and certainly
could not harm her. The emergency
bandages were produced. and, delight
ed to see that there was as yet no ap-
preciable swelling, we bound the leg in
most approved style from toes to
knee. We had just finished when the
doctor came. He snorted at sight of
the materials around; then, after an
examination of a few minutes, he said:
VERY good-very good, indeedi But

WHY DO YOU HURRY soq

Oh, man with eager eyes
Why do you hurry so?
In your haste to gain the prize
You miss much as you go;
You hear no song birds sing.
Nor stray in fiowery places;
You never stay to bring
Glad smiles to weary faces
Why do you hurry so?
Oh, stay a little, stayi
Why do you hurry so?
There are blossoms along the way
That never again shall blow;
The grave is at the end
OF the way you are taking
Stay little, friend,
And soothe- some heart that's aching
Why do you hurry so?
oh. maiden with deep eyes.
Why do you hurry so?
a world of sorrow lies
Out where you long to go;
You put your books away
And coil your braided tresses.
And, turning from wild play.
Are stateIyein long dresses
Why do you hurry so?
Oh, stay a little while,
Why do you hurry so?
see you sweetly smile,
And Heaven is here below;
But, oh, you long to flee
From youth and maiden glory,
To grieve too late and be
The pathos of the story
Why do you hurry so?

ing had done its mellowing work in
her life. Before Carl's death she
would have resented as an unpara1-
Ieled impossibihty such a thought as
that Of the pastor of the Marble
Square church choosing for his wife
even a girl like Barbara, his intellec-
tual and Christian equal. But many
things since Barbara's coming into
the home had conspired to change
Mrs. Wards old habits. And, as Mr..
Ward asked his question now, she
saw a picture of Barbara and Carl as
they had been one evening few days
before the child's death. His little
arms were about Barbara's neck, and
his pale, thin cneek was lying close
against hers.
eff it should come to that she
finally answered Mr.. Wards question
slowly, 81 am sure there is one wom-
an in the Marble Square church who
will not make any trouble"
Mr.. Ward looked surprised. But,
as he went out into the front hall to
lock the door for the night, he NUT
tered: "A man can never tell what
woman will say or do when she is
struck by lightning"
During the week that followed Bar
bara spent all the time she was able
to spare from ner own work in Sc
curing facts connected with her pro-
posed plans. Mrs. Ward herself went
with her to several well-known
houses in era wfo-d, and introduced
her to her friends. In every instance
Barbara found there was the great
est possible interest in the subject,
but no two women seemed to agree
as to any policy or plan. There was
unanimous agreement on one thing;
namely, need of capable, intelligent,
honest servants in the house, who
were to be depended on for continu
Gus service, or for at least period of
several years that might be reckoned
as continuous, the same as a bust
ness man could count on the con-
tinuous service in his employ of
competent bookkeeper or clerk who
was necessary to the welfare of the
business, but no more SO than
competent servant in continuous
service is necessary to the welfare
of the home.
''The trouble is" one woman after
another would say, Gin the girls
themselves. They do not have any
ambitions as class. They do not
wish to be taught. They resent adj
vice. They are ungrateful for nearly
all favors. They do not thank any
body to try to improve their condi-
ton. We are tired of constant efforts
made to solve an unsolvable problem
with the material that must be used"
Still, in spite of all discourage
ments, Barbara bravely determined
to go on, and her next effort was di-
rected toward the girls who had eX-
pressed a willingness to go into serv-
ice in the home instead of the store
and factory.
She managed to call all these to-
gether Saturday evening at her own
home and with her mother helping her
she made pleasant evening, serving
some light refreshments and enter
tanning the girls with music and pic
lures.

that might be published concerning
Western Canada, the land of No L
Hard Wheat and the best cattle on

to reach the lands spoken of, the Cana
dian Government having agencies es-

apolis, Indiana: Sault Ste. Marie and
Detroit Michigan; Toledo and Column

ing upon any of these Agents at these
points full information can be Sc
cured. This is great opportunity to
secure a home free of cost or if you
desire to purchase lands; they can be
bought now at prices much lower than
will exist in few months. But read
what the correspondent referred to
las to say of one particular district.
To the Editor of the Leader:
THE rush of the land seekers will
De to the prairie provinces of the Do
ninion of Canada. The allurements of
soil that yields 30 bushels of wheat
20 the acre are too great to be resist
ID, and an immense migration from
ibis country may be confidently pre-
iicted. People here laughed at first
1t the idea of any one leaving the
United States for Canada, but the Do
ninion authorities knew they had a
good thing and they stuck to it. Their
officials evidently knew the value. OF
printers ink. They spared no ex-
oense in letting the people of this
country know that these lands were
here and that they were exactly as
represented. They did more. They
sent out specimens of the crops raised
md samples of the grain. We have had
hem here at four consecutive street
fairs, presided over by one of their
ablest immigration officers. This gen
;leman spared no PAINS. He explained 5
the value of the lands and the richness
of the soil from morning to night to
all corners.
"All this told in the long rum Sew
eral went up from here to spy out the
land, and, like Caleb, the son of Jepun>
neh, and Joshua. the son of Nun.
brought back n good report, and now
some ten families will leave here in
few weeks for Saskatoon to settle
upon farms there, and others are pre-
pairing to follow. Of course many will
appear shocked at the idea of any
one leaving the stars and stripes for
the Union Jack, but patriotism is but
a nomenclature after all, and.-our ex-
perience has been that in nine hun
dred and ninety-nine cases out of a
thousand, a man is the most patriotic
where he can make the most money
and do the most harm to those whom
be hates.''
