prayer meeting held on the top OF
Crowder's mountain. A large NUMBER
Of the ministers in attendance climDeo
the mountain twice for the purpose or
rendering their early morning devo-
tions on the mountain brow. This
gathering Of preachers and churcn
workers for the purpose Of Bible study
and a study of methods In churcn

who attended and 1t Is to be hoped
that it will be established as a perma-

be found for such a gathering than All

the foot of Crowder's mountain, In
spot naturally beautiful and healthful'
with splendid water and removed from
the distracting noises Of the town.

his arm and walked down the road
Just as proud as ever he could be.
It made them all laugh louder than
before. for none Of them could see what
use a duckling would ever have for an
umbrella. But the duckling did not
know any better. He carried that um-
brella around under his arm day after
day, hoping it would rain. i-
Well, finally one day it did rain. 1t
rained in sheets, and the wind blew as
It had never blown before. Mr.. Duck
ling went out into the road, and, OF
course. everybody was there to see.
Up went the umbrella. and up went
Mr.. Duckling with 1t. for big gust OF
wind just lifted them both in the air
and swept them over the heads OF the
spectators and into the top Of tree
about a mile away.
1t took the little duckling half a day
to untangle himself from the limbs OF
The tree and get down to the ground.

HEART WOUNDS NOT NECESSARILY
MoRTAL.-In wounds Of the heart It
self the escape of blood Is never IN
large quantity, and the lethal conse-
quences are due to the fact that the
escape of blood from within Its cavity
Cor cavities) into the surrounding sac
of the pericardium mechanically inter-
rupts the alternate contraction and ex-
pansion by which it's pumping action IS
maintained. Accordingly, the results
of wound Of the heart are usually lden-
tical with those Of gradual suffocatlon:
This fact was Strikingly demonstrated
in the case of the Empress or AuStrla,
And the diabolic skill and precision
with which the wound was inflicted IN
her case offer a diagrammatic illustra.
ton Of a necessarily fatal wound OF
the heart. The instrument used was
too large to form q mere needle pune
ture." it was inflicted too high IN the
chest to be penetrating, Tor IL
was aimed with truly flendish ingen-
uity at the position of one of the thln
walls of the four cavities Of the heart,
and the directness Of the penetration,
combined with the thinness OF wall OF
the cavity, rendered it physically I'M
possible that the wound could be val
vular."
The Israelite warrior Of old smote
the enemy-when possible beneath
the fifth rib" because the impulse or
the heart Is felt there. But he probably
did not know that it is in that precise
position that wound Of the heart IS
least necessarily fatal. The Italian as
sassin of recent date displays incom-
paraby greater skin and knowledge.
The science of the present day also
provides that the historic account or
the death of Admiral Villeneuve Is
open to sceptical doubt. And the re-
cent cases Of suture of the heart give
illustration that modern surgical skill
may attempt, and with success, the
seemingly mpossible.-American Med
icine.

Many successful men in the financial

in building a large fortune by saving,

cumulated may some Rainy Day.

A Savings Account is an Efficient
Antidote for Worry.

3g In a little New England village
lived a lawyer famous for drawing
wills, in which branch of the business
he had long enjoyed monopoly Of the
business of the county.
On the death Of certain respected
citizen there was much speculation as
to the value Of the property and the
village gossip undertook to find out the
facts. He hunted up the lawyer and
said, rather bluntly:
