Got His Full Price.

Charles T. Copeland, instructor In
English at Harvard, is known to every
Harvard man of the last few student
generations and to q good many audi
ences around Boston. His chief spe-
cialty is reading the works of Kipling
and the eighteenth century authors
aloud and commenting on them in his
own peculiar fashion. One Of his chief
eccentricities is an enormous sponge,
which always hangs outside from his
window in Stoughton. But this story
deals neither with Kipling nor the
sponge. 1t is of Mr.. Copeland's first
adventure with a woman's club.
Some time ago he published an essay
on Robert Louis Stevenson, which was
widely read. AS q result the president
of the Woman's club in Somerville, the
next city to Cambridge, wrote him a
letter inviting him to lecture 10 the
club on Stevenson. He sent no reply.
The president wrote again. He replied
to the second letter. 1t was not his
custom, he said, to lecture before wo-
mems clubs. but if the Somerville or
ganization would pay him his full
price, $50, he would come.
The president was equal to the occa
sion. She replied very sweetly, setting
the date for the lecture. 1--WE shall be
very happy to pay you your full price,
S25," she wrote 1--WE have always
been in the habit Of paying our lee
turers $50"
Mr.. Copeland arrived an hour late.-

The votive pictures (yema) of Japa-
nese temples are an outgrowth of an
old custom. In ancient times departed
warriors were honored by offerings of
sake and rice placed before their tab
lets and tombs. AS the idea gained
ground that their spirits lowered
around their graves, besides food
certain number of spotless white horses
were provided with which these spirit
ual worthless might take recreation. So
it became the custom in wealthy Shin
to temples to keep one of these sacred
animals. There were many shrines
that could not afford to buy a white
horse, so the next best thing was to
get picture of one; hence the name
yema (picture horse) from We "a pic
ture) and una "a horse).
The use of the yema was first con-
fined to the Shinto religion, but the
Buddhists took kindly to the custom.
The word yema has long lost it's prim-
tive meaning and has become gener.
ic name for every picture hung up in
Shinto shrines or Buddhistic temples.

New York, June 2.-Some interesting

When the dispatch arrived withou,

the transmission of such a message from
the seat of war was somewhat super.
fuous demonstration Of politeness.
little reflection, however, seemed to
indicate the Significance of the particular
time at which the sociabls sentiment
was expressed.
The editor turned, however, to the
prayer book-knowing Burleigh is well
acquainted with the Holy writ-and
reading over the gospel for Whitsunday
came upon the sentences: peace leave
with you; my peace give unto you, moi
as the world giveth, give unto you. Let
not your heart be troubled, neither let il
be afraid"
"When we received Mr.. Burlei2 he
message to his brother, in GLASGOW, Re.
turning-Tell Lawson we felt" says the
Telegraph, "that the moment had ar.
rived and We might fairly take tho pub
lie into our confidence"
The Mail had a most ingenious or
rangement. 1t was a simple. decisive

about how the peace negotiations were
progressing
