where one takes the bus for Marble
Arch?
The man looked at her ptyingly. Her
American accent was thick upon her,
and he perceived also that she must
be deaf. He leaned toward her and
drew a long breath. Then he beloved:
This is your bus, ma'am" and be-
gan to shout, "Moblotch! Moblotch"
The visitor had let seven "MoblOtch"
buses go because she never once guess
ed that that is the way Marble Arch
is pronounced in London.

Macmillan Hershel lived with the
family of VIM. George, in New York.
He was supposed to have a little
money, but nobody ever dreamed that
the old man was rich. When he was
dying he told Mrs. George that she
had been a daughter to him He gave
her key 10 his box in safety de-
post vault, and before witnesses stat
ed that all it contained was to become
the property of Mrs. George. The box
was opened. 1t contained bonds,
deeds, mortgages, all gilt-edged secu-
rites to the value OF fully $1,50O,OO0
How the old man amassed the fortune
is still a mystery.

Birthplace of Secret Order Which Has
Had Remark able Growth.

Birth place OF secret OT0eT w hh1h ten@
Had Remarkable Growth.
Few persons outside the knights OF
Pythias know of the birth of this or
der. Perhaps many knights do not
know much about the earliest history,
except that the founder was Justus
Henry Rathbone, and that In 1864 the
ritual of the order was first read.
AS the birthplace of Pythianism, a
little frame schoOlhouse in Eagle Har-
Dor, Mich, is the mecca for all Pyth-
ians that visit the famous copper coun-
try. Pythianism has in copperdOm an
historical significance that it can have
in no other part of the country, for the
reason that in the schOOlhOuse now
weatherbeaten, racked by storm, and
prey to relic hunters, Rathbone taught
the youngsters their three RS in the
early sixties For years the schoolhouse
was cared for, for the sake of its asso-
citation, but to-day it is in despair.
Justus Henry RathbOne was greatly
impressed with the fidelity and friend
