had been in the west end of town to
visit my grandmother, and was going

down Front Street, for the Yankees
are thick. They have come to arrest
Governor Vance"
took my friends advice and passed
over to a back street by the cemetery
and over fences the nearest way home.
Oh! how mad we children were to
think that the mean old Yankees had
come to take our good Governor, for
we all liked him so much. Far into
the night when older eyes were closed
We whispered together.
And that night we did not pray for

ROOSEVELT AND THE KITTENS


A trait of President Roosevelt, con
spieuously different from the charac-
ter with which he, is commonly credi-
ted, was displayed a few afternoons
ago.
In company with Secretary Root he
had been enjoying horseback ride to
Chevy Chase. On their return, easing
up from the vigorous gait of the out
ing, they we're jogging along Sixteenth
Street near the Henderson Castle
when series of plaintive cries at
t:acted the Presidents attention.
"What is it?" asked Secretary Root.
"Kittens, I think" replied the Pres
ident, turning his horse around. "And
they seem to be in distress"
Then the Chief Magistrate began
an investigation and discovered that
the melancholy chorus issued from the
open catch-basin of a sewer.
The President beckoned to two ur-
chins who, from an awed distance,
we're admiringly watching the per-
formance.
"Will one of you boys crawl into
the opening while the other holds his
legs~ President Roosevelt asked.
Sport like that with the greatest
parsonage in the United States as UNI
pire could come reasonably only once
in lifetime, and the boys fairly tum-
bled to the opportunity.
"That's the stuffp exclaimed the
President. "Now, what do you find
therew
Goats in bag" shriIled the boy
with his head in the sewer. The other
boy sturdily clung to his companions
legs. The kittens, unaware that their
plight had stirred the sympathies of
the head of a nation and that their
deliverance was at hand, walled as
if new calamity were about to strike.
"Drag them OUT" came the COM
mand.
In moment the President of the
United States, the Secretary of War
and two excited youngsters stood
around the rescued litter. Three for
lorn kittens struggled feebly. Then
the wrath of the leader who has
slaughtered wild game, and shot down
armed men in battle, blazed into cpl
thets upon the wretch who had flung
the kittens to die in slow agony.
The commotion brought out won
dering butler from a neighboring res
idence.
"Win you care for these little kit
tens" asked the President; "give
them milk and place to iveW
Had the man been asked to accept a
Cabinet portfolio he could not have
responded with more heartfelt eager
ness.
The President thanked him, told the
astonished urchins they were little
men, and, joining Secretary Root,
moved on to the White House.-Satur-
day Evening Post.

THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL.

The downfall of T. Bright, once a
Baptist minister of influence in North
Carolina, is another illustration of the
power of money to lure a man to ruin.
This man had lived an outWardly cor
rect life for more than half a century.
He has children grown, one Of whom
goes down with his father into shame,
and the others, with the wife and
mother, are left to weep far more bit
ter tears than would have fallen upon
his grave. He heard the song of the
siren and let the poison enter into his
soul. He-saw the glittering prospects
of a life of ease and luxury, and al
lowed these prospects of wealth and
power to drown the voice of con-
science and blind him to the suffering
his evil course entailed upon the in
nocent who poured their hard-earned
money into his purse. Perhaps
through all his life this greedy pas
sion slept, ready to consume him at
the first opportunity do not know
about that. But at all events, here
is a man, honored by his brethren, oc-
cupying a prominent place, enjoying
the confidence of his fellows, wearing
the sacred livery. of heaven, suddenly
stripped of all that makes life .toler-
able, and branded as a thief It was
an appalling fall, and we are frank to
say that from the depths of our hearts
we pity him. If the man was ever
saved, what oceans of sorrow are surg
ing over his soul, and if not, how dark
the pathway to the gloomy end! The
lesson of his life will not, we pray, be
lost. There are some things in this
world that are better than money.
Gold cannot buy character, and all the
money of all the millionaires can not
remove the stains from a human soul.
Boys, the only way to get money is to
earn it. To be sure it is a hard and
rugged road, but it is the only safe
one. How that man is to be pitied, no
matter if he never gets into the
clutches Oh the law, who is absorbed
body and soul, by the passion for
wealth. Not all the mammon-w worship
pers get in jail, but they all wear gall
ing chains and bow before their god
of gold exactly as a heathen bows be-
fore his god of wood or stone. The
love of money is the root of all evil,
and man may love it with a consum-
ing passion who is not worth thirty
cents. It is all right for a man to
have money, but it is all wrong for
money to have a man.-Charity and
Children.

ANSWERING ALPHoMEeA's QUESTIONS

Dear Aunt Jennie:-I will try to
answer Alphomega's questions. First,
my favorite moral characteristic is
temperance, because it brings peace.
The one most dislike is profanity,
because it brings grief. Ny favorite
sxtravagance is writing material and
postage stamps, because it INDUCES
my self-laudable pride to write out
my thoughts. I care very little for
biography, because I have read only
very few.
Gen. Robert Lee is my favorite hero
in American history, because he was
brave; Louis Philippe, the last King
Of France, in the history of other
countries, because he needed pity. Ar
mold the traitor I most dislike, be-
cause traitors are dsepicable. Mary
Tudor, or Bloody Mary, among the
women of history, is most disliked, be-
cause of the innocent she caused to
be slain. Molly Pitcher is a favorite
because of her staunch bravery. Queen
Victoria I admire most of all historic
characters, because of her wise and
peaceful reign.
Dickens is my favorite novelist
among men, because of his clear in
sight into human nature. Mrs. Stowe
is nv favorite woman novelist, be-
cause of her power to depict the pa
thOs of pain. Ny favorite work of
6ction is "John Halifax, Gentleman"
David Copperfeld is my favorite fc
ttious character, because one never
loses interest in him. Uriah Heep I
most dislike, for his extreme humble
frame. Amy Robsart is my favorite
heroine, because her undying love for
an unworthy object excites my pity
and esteem. I dislike Marie St. Clair
in "UncIe Toms Cabin" because of
her intolerable selfshness, tyranny and
Incidence. John Greenleaf Whittier
IS my favorite poet because of his
great loving heart. 'Lord Ullin's
Daughter" is my favorite poem be-
Cause of its matchless rhythm.
The quality I most like in men is
chivalry, a pure affection and tendeI
overance for women. The quality I
most dislike in men is fault-fnding !;
his one habit has broken more hearts
and marred more lives than any other
one evil. The quality I most admire in
Women is gentIeness, for God has
made nothing more lovable than gen
ue-hoar5ed, gentle-voiced, gentle-wo-
men The quality I most dislike IN
Women is masculinity; a woman is
never more unlovely than when she
uSurps mems cloths or mems manners.
If I were cast on a desert island
he SIX books I would most desire to
have would be, "Six Girls" 'David
CoprerfeId," "Whittier's Poems"
Uncle Toms Cabin" 'Little Women"
'Dd Stepping Heavenward."
Now l have answered friend AlphO-
Iega.s questions to the best of my
utility. and will now ak a few in my
oFn. What novel in America is truly
.e @reatest from a literary point OF
view. What is the most beautiful
american song, and why? What are
1e advantages of the American girl
