SfTHATLL do now, Babe" said
the animal trainer, extricat-

So he sailed forth to find Evan. and
his visitors went with him, expecting

yellow head full of curls peering shyly
from behind a tree and vanishing as
soon as the strangers approached.
Dragged forth finally by the arm,
with his face turned bashfully away,
behold Evan, aged four years and IL
months, master of the elephants.
In the doorway of the elephant house
the parental grasp relaxed and with
dive Evan got between the mighty
wrinkled pillars that supported Babe.
That playful young creature had her
vast ears thrust forward like immense
banners. Her piggy eyes were all
a-twinkle. She gurgled deep down in
her caverns, like mountain full of
sizzling hot water.
Gently, ever so gently, her big trunk
with it's pink orifice reached out and
seized the little chap. Slowly she
rocked him TO and fro while he sat,
holding to the trunk as calmly as other
children would hold to the ropes of a
swing But Basil wanted a bit of it.,

trumpeted until Babe swung Evan over

swung him like a ball, hut with a care
and gentleness that seemed impossi-

A muttered word from HeaIey, and
Basil lifted the little golden-haired
trainer up, up, until she held him ten
feet above the ground. Then the trunk
curved backwards and set him as softly
as if he were bisQue on her big back
He sat there a few moments, slapping
the leathery skin down the sloping
back to the tail, swung from it as if
it were a rope. and let himself drop &c

trumpeted and wagged their ears
watching for him to appear between
their legs again.

tionaries, in the end good is to come.
So Turks have been goaded, and prob
ably they needed little goading, to at
tack Christian Macedonians from
time to time, and there has certainly
been enough cruelty and oppression to
cause a general revolt. However, the
powers as yet have not interviewed very
zealously, as after the dreadful Bull
garian atrocities; and the Bulgarian
revolutionaries ask themselves why his
tory in this instance fails to repeat
itself.
We have said that Greece also has
taken a hand in this neighbours affairs.
For a time Turkey had as much trouble
with the guerrilla bands of Greeks as
she had been having with Bulgarian in
vaders. The Greeks have aided the
Macedonians with arms and reinforce
ments not infrequently, and Greek free
booter as we'll as Macedonian and Al"
bantam outlaw have added considerably
to the country's turmoil But the Greeks
probably have been actuated as much
by jealousy of the increasing powers
of the Bulgarians in Macedonia as by
thought of crusade against the Turk.

He walked into the grocery store with

Ger at once produced his pencil and order

The grocer made out the bill, won

and handed it to the boy, asking as he did
so:
'Did YOUR mother send the money, OF
does she want the goods charged?"
The boy seized the bill and said with
sign of satisfaction:
ma didn't send me at all. It's my
arithmetic lesson, and had to get Il
done somehow"

many, Great Britain and France not
long ago joined with Russia and Aus
tria-Hungary in calling the porte's at
tention to the necessity for reforms
there and the willy Turk replied that
certain improvements should be forth
coming. But the revolt has gone on;
the Macedonians saying the projected
reforms were the same as existing reg
ulations and never would be enforced.
One cannot but feel sympathy for
struggling Macedonia, living under the
rule of ''Pashaws from whom no man 8
life and no woman's honor is safe for

the country do if it were to obtain the
freedom for which it so vehemently

SAVED BY HIS DOG.
Bruno Brought Relief to His Master
Who Was Buried Under a
Load of Wood.

Frank Mullen, a wood hauler, Of Jop-
lin, Kan, has his faithful dog to thank
for his life He was hauling wood from
Shoal creek, near Joplin, one day last
month, when his wagon partially broke
down under a big load He had to crawl
under the wagon to make repairs. He
knew it was dangerous, but he took the
risk. While he was working the wagon
completely gave way, and Mullen was
buried under a pile of cordwood. He
was not hurt, but was imprisoned so
he could not escape. He was in Sc
cluded part of the wood, and his chances
seemed good for starving to death.
Finally he bethought himself of his dog.
Calling him-"Go home, Brunei" he
commanded. The dog obeyed, and the
morning after the accident occurred
Mrs. Mullen, who had worried al night
about her husbands absence, was at
| tracted to the door by the dogs scratch
| ing and bowling. When she opened the
door she noticed he had bad cut or
one of his shoulders. He had been hi
there by a stick from the falling load
Mrs. Mullen, who had worried all nigh
and. ordering the dog to return to hi'
master. set out, following him. Thu
dog led her directly to where Muller
was. several miles distant, and, witt
the aid of the man who accompanied
her. Mrs. Mullen was able to extricat
her husband. He was half starved, bu
unhurt.

TWO KINDS OF SYMPATHY.
One Kind Bestows a Miserable Sort
OF Comfort, the other Is
Truly HeIpfuI.

Sympathy is a word set over from
the Greek, and means suffering with"
Hence one who sympathizes with an
other suffers with him. In our careless
use of the word we do not put SO much
meaning into 1t. AS generally en-
ployed, it means that one has a gentle
touch OF pity for another who is in
trouble. In order to have it signify
anything worth while we should put its
full meaning into it when we use 1t.
There are two kinds of sympathy,
says Wellspring. There is so-called
sympathy that is simply depressing.
| If one is in trouble, it makes his trou-
BILE seem greater ard harder to bear.
1t weeps with one, but not in a comfort
| ing way. On the contrary, it makes one
| feel that he indeed has occasion to weep,
and that there is no real solace for him.
If one is cast down because of his health,
lit makes him almost give up all hope
|, of recovery. In his friends Job had
sympathizers, but he was justified in
/ saying to them: Miserable comfort
ers are we all"
The other is a sympathy that puts
heart, hope, manhood into one. II one
lis cast down it leaves him cheered
afterwards the obstacles do not look
so formidable or the clouds so black
In our Respondent words we magnify oul
troubles; helpful sympathy enables u:
70 see them in their true proportions
This kind of sympathy not only weep:
with those who are sorrowful, bu
speaks a comforting word. 1t does no
merely pity the unfortunate, it puts on
a hand to lift him up. If one reall!
suffers with-another, h
will do something besides condole,
something besides coincidence is needed
SympAthize with others. as you woul,
