| The risks that firemen take are an
everlasting wonder, even though almost
every paper contains stories of their
bravery. But the man behind the
| e-engine-apparently he has only to
| keep his machine going, and is as safe
as the man who pulls the lever of an
upright donkey" The story of Bill
Brown, as told by Mr.. Cleveland Moff-
EFT, IN Careers of Daring and Danger"
shows that the engineers bravery is
sometimes put to tests as severe as
| these which the hoseman or the ladder
man even has to endure.
What happened was this: Engine
20, pumping her prettiest, stood at the
corner so near the drug house that the
driver thought it wasn't safe for the
horses, and led them away. That left
Brown alone, against the cheek of the
fire, watching his boiler and keeping
his steam-gauge at seventy-ive
As the fire gained, chunks of red.
hot sandstone began to smash down
on the engine. Brown ran his pressure
up to eighty, and watched the door
anXiously where the four firemen from
his squad had gone into the furnace.
Then an explosion of chemicals in the
building sent sheet of flame wide as
a house curling across the street, en-
wrapping engine and man, and setting
fire to the elevated railway station
overhead. Bill Brown stood by his
engine with sheet of fire above him.
He heard footsteps on the pavement
and voices that grew fainter, crying,
Run for your lives!' He was alone,
and the skin on his hands, face and
neck was blistered.
Brown knew why everyone was run.
ming. There would be another explo.
sion. 1t was tolerably certain that
he must die If he stayed. But his four
chums We're in the fire and needed the
water. If hequit his engine the water
would fail
He stocked in coal and ran the gauge
up another notch, easing the running
parts with the oiler. He was offering
his life for his friends.
In a few minutes the four firemen
came out of the building. Then Bill
Brown ran for his life with his com.
rades. A second or two later Engine
20 was crushed by the falling walls.

LITERARY NOTE.

The Constitution of the United States
of America has put a new meaning into
the word citizenship. The high ideals Of
the fathers of our country have laid the
foundations of good citizenship in such a
way that the Industrious. high-minded,
ambitious men and women of all nations
have focked to our shores. The present
prominence of our nation among the ma
tions OF the world and Its new fields Of
usefulness and power have given to
American citizenship fresh inspiration
toward true living and great accomplish
ment.
The high sentiments Of our chief execu-
tive In his address, ''The New Citizen" !"
printed In The Youths Companion, ale
fttingly published in the Washington's
birthday number. George Washington,
by his pure life and wise conservatism
and ambition for the new country, fairly
won his title Of Father of his Country.
Theodore Roosevelt, the best exponent of
our twentieth century activity, has equal
ly high ideals for the nation; and In this
address and in his life he lays particular
stress on the individual, his Stewardship,
his usefulness In home and public life.

You Tasre With Yorr Throat.

The idea that the sense CT taste has
any connection with the thr1 at appears
peculiar at first thought. We have been
possessed with the notion that the
sense of taste lies in the tongue and
the palate. We all speak of fine pal
ate, and many persons express aston
ishment that they can enjoy delicacy
as well after having had plate fitted
to their mouths by a dentist as they
could before they paid visit to that
clever gentleman.
The sense of taste is not confined to
the tongue and the palate, bat is more
widely distributed. You taste also with
the epiglottis, that little valve at the
base of the tongue, and the larynx, to
which the epiglottis acts as an assist
ant, also takes part in the process.
Concerning the palate, it is noteworthy
that we taste with the soft part, which
is at the back of the mouth, but not
with the hard or front palate. That ex-
plains the mystery of the dental plate.
The tonsils do nothing for the sense of
TASTE nor does the uvula
