self under the overhanging rocks of the hot spring, but her hiding was hardly real ono. It was only a con- cealing of herself from Tutanekei, that he might find her at once, but only after trouble and searching. So he went feeling about the banks of the hot spring, searching everywhere, while she lay coyly hid under the lodges of the rock, peeping out and wondering when she should be found. At last he caught hold of her hand. and cried out, "Halloa! who's thts?'' And Hinemoa answered., Ut is I, Tutanekei." And he said, "But who are you? Who's IF" Then she spoke louder, and said, "It's I; 'tis Hine. moa." And he said, "Oh! oh! oh! Can in truth such be the case? Let us two then go to my house, And she an. swered, "Yes." She then rose up in the water as beautiful as the wild white hawk, and stepped on the ledge of the bath as graceful as the sky white crane; and he threw her gar ments over her, and took her, and pro. ceeded to his house and reposed there. From thenceforth, according to the ancient laws of the Maori, they were man and wife, and their descendants are at this day dwelling on the lake of Rotoma, and never yet have the lips of the offspring of Hinemoa forgotten to repeat tales of the great beauty and swimming abilities of their renowned ancestress, while they have this song, this very song:
 Am not also descended from the great an-
 cestress who came hither.
 From HinemOa whom resemble from ha wing
 also crossed the seas."
 There is still preserved what is call. ed Hinemoa's bath.

A NIGHT ALARM

Worse than an alarm of fire at night is the brassy cough of croup. which sounds like the children's death knell and it means death unless some thing is done quickly. Foley's Honey and Tar never fails to give instant re- lief and quickly cures the worst forms of croup. Mrs P. L. Cordier, of Man. nlngton, Ky. writes: My three-year- old girl had severe case of croup: the doctor said she could not live. l got a bottle of Foley's Honey and Tar; the hrst dose gave quick relief and saved her life" Refuse substitutes.

pursued by chaffinch. yellow-hammer,

pursued with equal vigor by a missel
thrush; while a few weeks before a
tiny willow wren used to chase the
sparrows and chaffinches which chase
the missel thrush that chases the rock.
More than this. the rook will gayly
hunt the sparrow hawk, which would
eat the willow wren at a mouthful

Letters Mark Twain Gets.

Mark Twain is long suffering in the
matter of correspondence loaded
with requests for favors from un
known people. He has, consequently
received the impression that when
people find time hanging heavily on
their hands they sit down and write
a letter to him asking for something.
These requests are always preceded
by profuse compliments. "In my
judgment" said Mark Twain recently,
mo compliment has the slightest
value when 1t is charged for, yet !
think ] never get one unaccompanied
by the bill" The latest letter he has
received Is somewhat In the nature of
a climax even to those that have gone
before. A school teacher asks for his
portrait In oil. There is nothing we
would appreciate SO much" wrote this
admirer, with true naivete. 1T could
be used for years and years In the
school" But the fact that It would
cost the author thousand dollars OF
so entered nowhere into the enthu.

MY wand'ring stcps oft go astray,
As helplessly ! seek the way
of truth, and hope to find.
/ know that am lame;
So prone to stumble as go:
With many falls and progress slow
! seek Thy grace to claim.
Dull are my cars to hear
The warnings of the still small voice
That pleads of me better choice

Open my ears, q Lord. to hear.
Strengthen my feet. my footsteps cheer
And make my blind eyes see.

Strength Of Purpose,

We have often tried to be strong in our
own resolutions, and have failed miserably.
Jesus who, as Man, proved Himself supe.
rlor TO all the powers of Satan. On the
mountain a temptation, repeatedly
throughout His mortal life and notably
m the hour OF the power of darkness. Sa.
tan measured himself against the second
Man. but could find no response in that
glorious Christ-nature, and remember that
er, because that very nature whicb i
Jesus Christ Himself, is given to each Of
us. When, therefore, Satan tempts, meet
nm, not with your own resolutions, but
with the mdwelling Jesus; let Jesus do il
all; leave Him as your great heart champion
70 snbd1e Satan under your feet; meet Sa.
