I saw the young imp's face fall at this, out he braced up and said: See here, pop you're bound to see me through on this, cause you've accepted my retainer, you know!'

IN Germany stutter. AS in nearly all
cases the difficulty in speaking arises
from peculiar nervous condition and
is not due to any physical malforma-
ton, the specialists are confident of
being able to cure nearly all the cases
which they find.
The system Of cure consists largely
In making the child speak slowly, in
teaching him how to properly use his
lips and tongue in forming words, and
in correcting his nervousness. That
stammering can be cured has been re-
allied since the time that Demosthenes
walked by the seashore declaiming
with a pebble in his mouth. It is a
little singular that the Germans, who
have been supposed to be race rather
lacking in nervousness, should sudden
~ develop into a nation of Sufferers.
Perhaps the strenuous life into which
the Emperor has plunged the country
has been a little to much for it's ner-
vOus system.

The Czarina's Choice.

The Russian Empress seems to be
something Of an athlete. On one oc-
casion, while paying a visit to al art
studio, the public congregated outside
in large numbers in the hope of see,
ing her as she came out. But their
curiosity was never satisfied, for the
Czarina asked one of the attendants if
there was an exit at the back Of the
house. To this he replied in the affirm

stopped by board. '*That does not

you get me ladder I will soon climb

been placed in position, the Empress
of Russia climbed it, jumped over the
plank, and thus succeeded in avoiding
the unwelcome attentions OF the over
enthusiastic populace.

THE ROSE LIGHT .LINoEREp.

The rose light fingered on the hill,
And turned to wine the waters at our
feet.
The leaves that prattled by. our sides
were still.
This da.-how sweet!
The sun fell down behind the crest
Uplifted dark .:inst the western sky,
And it stood brazen-lined, in azure drest,
Within my heart-a cry.
''': :. : So
Before her time, the silver moon j.
Crept shyly, all ashamed, into the light.
A star beyond the hills arose-too soon.
Then spread the Night.
Her veil Of mist to hide the deeps
That once were warm. Upon our spir-
its, too.
A silence fell, cen as the cool air sleeps
The grass with dew.
Yesterday! So the ages roll
Unmoved. And yet I learn that thou
shouldst know
How fingers still thy presence in my
soul
An afterglow!
Winston Churchill in Century.
