Miss Mary Louise Boyle, who count
ed Dickens, Lever. Browning, Lowell
and Tennyson among her friends, re
cords In her Book story about q
sporting parson she knew, the Rev
Lorraine Smith, who hunted in purple
instead of pink because the former
was the correct episcopal color:
"His reverence was always vel
mounted and was a keen sportsman
He had pretty living and a good
church in the neighborhood, but he sur
prised his parishioners very much b.
altering the whole disposition Of the
tombstones. He thought they looked
awkward and untidy In their actual DO
sition, SO he had them all taken up and
rearranged according to his fancy In
hnes crosses, squares, etc. One Sun
day morning, very cold winters day
he had performed the service to q
scanty congregation, and on going UT
into his pulpit, instead of opening his
sermon book. he pronounced the fol
lowing address: My dear friends, ii
you require 1t l will preach you the
sermon which have brought with me
but If you are as cold and hungry az
] am think you will prefer going
with me to the rectory, where you will
ind some cold beef and some good
ale.'"

The welsh Not..

How many of our readers know what
the welsh note" was? Here is what
the Rev. John Evans tells us In refer
ence to the way in which English was
taught in Wales In the middle Of the
hst century: 'sThis school had several
features unknown in the Welsh school
Of today. The Welsh note was one in
dispensable feature This secured Eng
hsh conversation. 1t was a smooth
piece Of wood, like a fiat inch rule,
with the letters w. NJ carved on it.
: When any one was caught speaking
Welsh, the Welsh note was immedi-
ately handed to him, but the hand
which held it at the end Of the lesson
was the one made to Jingle in conse-
Quence, so it was common occurrence
for the child who had 1t to move about
from pew to pew, craftily tempting
others to speak Welsh. This sign Of
guilt, therefore, often changed hands,
until at last it rested in that which had
to bear the burden of all the transgres-
sions Of that law"

Il was Saturday afternoon, and Miss
Geeson, the good looking schoolteacher
OF district No. 4, was at the school
house to secure book she had left
the day before. She was sitting down
20 rest after her walk of mile OF
more when a shadow darkened the
open door and she looked up to find a
tramp on the threshold There was no
mistaking his avocation; he was lean
and ragged and hungry looking; he
was sunburned ana tough. 1t was half
q mile to the nearest farmhouse, and
yet after the first thrill of alarm the
schoolma'am was not frightened. On
the contrary, she saw the opportunity
to read a fellow being moral lesson
and she was rather pleased. Miss
Meeson had ideas. They were Puri-
tanical and more. II she had been the
governor Of Connecticut she would
have vigorously enforced all the blue
laws on the statute books and sought
20 enact dozen more.
'Come In here and sit down." she
said to the tramp, to show him she was
not afraid.
''Yes'm," he humbly replied as he
timidly advanced and took a seat
'sNow. then" she continued after
looking him over, you are a lazy good
for nothing and wouldn't work if work
was offered"
sK'rect, MISS he answered.
'You go tramping up and down the
country, and you do not hesitate to
steal as well as beg"
Perfectly true. miss"
you've probably been in jail?"

and I've no doubt you drink"

her subject "A vagrant beggar. a
thief and a drunkardl You are also a
Jailbird, and don't suppose you ever
speak the truth except by accident"
you've hit it, MISS replied the
tramp, with a fleeing smile.
Cast in the mold of a man, yet wit

low enough, you have been fighting.

Miserable Mothers.
CHILDREN R0BsED or THEIR
BIRTHRlaHT.

The most serious thing In life is ma
ternity. The child who inherits weak
ness is handicapped for life in the strug-
gle for existence. The weak and sickfy
mother surely devotes her offspring to
misery and misfortune. The romantic
idea of marriage is based on love and love
alone. The scientific idea Of marriage
demands sound health as basis of mat
rimony. The utter helplessness of love is
written in thousand experiences of
young motherhood. The child. the
mother would die for, cries in her arms,
and she is too weak and worn to comfort
1t. She can do naught but weep in
sympathy.
AS surely as the most serious thing in
life is maternity so the most necessary

thing for the prospective mother is pre-
paration. For preparation is possible.
There Is, In general, no need for the
weakness and WEAKNESS so often associ-
ted with maternity. There is no need
for the nervous anxiety, the prolonged
birth pangs, and after excavation, SO
commonly experienced by mothers.
In this day, even women understand
the training necessary for athletic ex-
ercise. They know that to successfully
sustain the strain of outdoor sports they
must prepare themselves by training.
And yet the average woman will face the
great strain of maternity without the
slightest preparation for the extraordin-
airy event before her. Nerves, muscles are
all to be submitted to an extraordinary
strain and yet there Is no attempt to fit
them for the ordeal.
PROPER PREPARATION.
The fact needs to be impressed ON
every woman that she can prepare for
the strain of motherhood as She can pre-
pare for any other extraordinary demand
to be made upon the vital forces. The
nature of this preparation is well set
forth in the following letter:
