JUST MAKING Believe"
One Way to Make This Dull Old
World Seem Brighter.

One Way to Make This Dull Old
World Seem Brighter.
There is many a failure on the part
of "grown ups" to comprehend the
mental processes of their imaginative
superiOrs-the children. Some clumsy
person calls the most charming device
of fancy another of those naughty
fibs." BY that condemnation he sets
up a well nigh impossible barrier be-
tween himself and the childish dreamer.
Not long ago a grown up was accOst-
ed on the street by dainty maiden of
four, who nodded bright good morn
ing and then said, isn't there going to
be a wedding down there" pointing
across the square.
81 think not" said the Obtuse adult.
81 haven't heard of any wedding"
care you sure? 1 think there's going
to be one" persisted the little maiden.
81 don't see any flowers or carriages,
and 1 guess you are mistaken" replied
the champion of dull fact.
Then the tiny pleader drew nearer,
and with an entreating touch of her
hand and a voice lowered out of hear
ing of the fairies she breathed:
please say there's going to be a we'd
ding. I'm just making believe"
Could the power of Imagination go
further? Could there be a simpler de-
vice for turning this dull world into a
garden Of flowers and sweet music
than this same gentle making be-
heve?"
Imagination often proves to be the
door that opens into high philosophy
of life. We all remember Dickens
brave little marchioness. "Did you ever
taste orange peel and water?" she de-
manded of the gay Dick Swiveller. He
replied that he never had tasted that
ardent beverage.
''If you make believe very much, it's
very nice" said the small servant, "but
if you don't, you know, it seems as if it
would bear a little more seasoning GER
tainly"
AS long as life has its ups and downs
it is by no means impossible that to us
all, old as we'll as young. there may
come time when we shall be glad to
have acquired the accomplishment of
making believe very much.-Youtb's
Companion.

LAZY AND COLD FLOODED.
An Incident That Nearly Cost Sir
Hugh Rose His Peerage.


Lord Strathnairn was the most indO-
lent, lackadaisical languid person who
ever dawdled along Piccadilly. When
he was devastating central India and
winning the splendid victories that i'm.
mOrtaliZed his name, he was so lazy
that he could not be got to dictate the
dispatches recording his own triumphs.
Months elapsed before these documents
could be extracted from him, and then
they were brief and meager to the last
degree. One day when Sir Hugh Rose
he was entertaining a gallant company
at dinner during the crisis of the mu-
tiny.
With the utmost sang froid he was
delighting those near him with one of
his best anecdotes. In the middle of it
his orderly entered and after saluting
exclaimed, "We have captured 200 reb-
els, sir" To him the general turned
and, with that elegant courtesy of
manner on which he prided himself.
serenely replied, "Thank you, ser
geant." But the man still remained.
Again interrupting his chief, he said,
But what are we to do with them.
sir?"
"Oh," replied Sir Hugh, with a soft
smile, "hang them, of course" And he
resumed his anecdote.
In a little while Sir Hugh was again
interrupted in the middle of another
story by the sergeant, who came in and
said, please, sir, we've hung the lot
Sir" The general turned, bowed Slight
ly and in the sweetest manner lisped.
Thanks, ,sergeant-very many thanks"
and then went on with his anecdote as
If nothing had happened.
This story came to the ears of Queen
Victoria, and she was so angry that II
nearly cost Sir Hugh his peerage.

UnInjured Lion. seldom cborr..

Like every other animal, the lion
tries to avoid man until wounded, and
1t is only in exceptional cases Of there
being young ones to guard or from as
tonishment at seeing the hunters so
close to them that they charge when
being tracked.
They charge with the same coughing
roar that a tiger does and come at
great speed close to the ground, not
bounding in the air, as they are repre-
sented' in pictures Their ears are
pressed close to the head, giving them
the comical appearance Of being with
out ears.-LOndon Times.
