dispenser Of cookies and gingerbread
held a warm place in his small affec-
tions. The patriotic discussion was
perforce abandoned until Blinks was
pacified.
The Courtney children spent every
summer at the old family homestead
in Chatham, but this year, thanks to
an epidemic OF diphtheria In the city
schools. they had been spirited off
to the country with the opening Of
spring. For the first time in their
lives they had participated in coun-
try celebration of Memorial day and
had absorbed the full meaning of the
occasion. In the city it represented
merely a parade. Here in the quiet
country town it stood for patriotism
Of the loftiest sort. And to the loyal,
impetuous Bud it amounted to an in
suit that Miss Winston, whose every
silvery gray hair he reverenced, had
had no part in the solemn ceremo-
malls.
1t was not entirely because the three
children felt that the quaint old Win
ston mansion was a never failing ref
uge in time Of other disappointments
nor that with the welcome always
awaiting them there came more sub
stantial proofs of their hostess af-
fection, but they felt that the white
haired lady with the quiet voice rep
resented the men who generations be-
fore had died that their country
might live Miss Winstons cookies
were irreproachable, but better still
were her thrilling tales of when
Grandfather Winston was on Wash
ington's staff. And in their eyes, far
handsomer than the silver tea set
which had come over in the Mayfower
and had been given General Winston's
father on his marriage, was the faded
Continental uniform which hung in
Miss Winston's own room and which
they were permitted to gaze upon and
even touch on those rare occasions
when all three had been good stimuli
taneously.
During the weeks which interviewed
between Memorial day and the Fourth
of July a general air of mystery brood
ed over the Courtney family. If Grand
mother Courtney had not been afflicted
with failing eyesight, she must have
judged from the secret conclaves in
dim corners that something was brew
ing. AS it was she did wonder some
what at the subsistence Of the usually
exuberant Bud, who had little or moth
ing to say about the rapidly approach
ing day Of noise and jubilation. Nor
could she quite understand why when
the supply of fireworks arrived from the
city Bud did not attempt to sample
them in advance Only the year before

ssXW WELL, that is what call
NV downright mean, said Bud.
''They never decorated
Miss Winston" And he en-
phasized his remark by aiming stone
at the saucy chipmunk that had been
making friendly overtures. Nellie, the
eldest of the group, took exception to
the remark.
"You talk as if she was cozy corner
or pincushion, she exclaimed sharp
ly.
"You talk like-like "A girl, answered
Bud, with fine scorn. "Don't you know
she's Daughter of the American Rev
Dlution"
"And Mrs. Hodges, she says that she
is Mother of the Spanish-American
War"
Buds face indicated all the contempt
possible for one whose nose is already
tip tilted at decided angle.

THE FRENCH FOURTH.

similarities In the Holidays of the
Sister Republics.
The French Fourth of July, coming
MS it does on the 14th of July, recalls to
both Frenchmen and Americans the
date of the destruction of the Bastille
and the generous republican sentiments
that at the time vibrated between the
two countries. Just as the Declara-
ton of Independence was acclaimed
by Frenchmen in those early days, so
in America the news of the destruction
of the Bastille was received with hur-
rahs of rejoicing as new declaration
of the rights of man.
Like our own Fourth, the French
14th comes in the hot month Of July,
when the great cities are deserted by
the posing fashionables and are in
the full possession of the great mass
of average democratic citizens. AS
on our own Fourth, it is a day Of
iced refreshments, with the streets and
houses decorated with all kinds of
festive flags and bunting. AS with us,
there is the smell of powder in the air,
a pandemonium of explosions In the
streets, and everywhere the small boy
with his crackers, cannons, drums,
horns, flags and lanterns.
Early in the morning everybody Or
naments his windows with Venetian
lanterns, flags and bunting. Here,
again, the colors are the same red,
white and blue. Salvos of artillery
announce the dawn; the bells are rung
in the church towers of all France;
the marines of every war ship on the
coast fire the great guns, while in each
city, town and village as the sun rises
they chant
Domino. salvam fac rempublicam!
In city, town and village the trum-
peters salute the day in the open
squares, and the hot sunlight of July
falls on a population proud to be re-
publican.
In Paris the fete opens on the night
of the 18th with immense torchlight
professions of choral, patriotic, gym
nastic and shooting societies, led by
brass bands that play the patriotic
songs whose words are known to all
the 'Chant du Depart" the MAR
seillaise," the Mothers of Alsace' and
Returning From the Review" With
them the multitude sings itself into q
sort of drunkenness as the grand old
words roll out from the memory. Then
woe to the i'll advised swell who dares
to smile mockingly! Within the past
five years men have been half killed
for nothing more when the hot ghost
of 1879 walks the streets of Paris for
one night in July. There are fierce
words for children even in those old
songs, as
We envy the fate of Barra and Viala-
They died, but they conquered!
Both Barra and Viala were boys Of
the great revolution. Every school
child in France knows their history.
As with us, the boys are much in
evidence upon the independence day
of their republic. While their fathers
and their mothers sleep or sit beside
cool drinks in shady cafes, amused by
hundred vagrant mountebanks, the
boys of France for one day in the year
make more noise than their elders.

minded of said fact by these here chill.
dren: and In token of that sentiment
we have brought the fireworks display
along and with your permission will
set off the same in your pasture lot
instead of in the public square, accord
ing to the usual custom" He stopped
from sheer lack of breath, and Miss
Winston, all a-tremble over this unex-
pected honor, gave her delighted con-
sent to the subversi0n of her pasture
lot to patriotic uses. So there were
more red fire, more candles, more rock
cts and innumerable fowerpots and
nigger chasers; then came, spread in
living flames. double portrait OF
Washington and-General Winston.
Nell could stand it no longer. In
very ecstasy of satisfaction she flung
her arms about Miss Winston's neck.
''That's from papa. wrote him to
send them down.
Bud glared at her through the dark
ness.
"It's all right" he assured her, since
It's SO good; but knew you couldn't
keep secret"
Nevertheless he smiled as he felt
Miss Winston's arm about his neck and
her tender kiss upon his tanned cheek.
They were starting for home now un-
der Zach's care.
Dear children, this has been the
happiest, the proudest, day of my life,
and you have made it sor'
Eyes, it's been bully day." assented
Bud, vainly trying to stifie the pride in
his voice. Blinks raised sleepy face
for Miss Winston's good night kiss.
1.-THE lemonade was good, too," he
murmured as he placed confiding
hand in Zach's big rough one And SO the
four were swallowed up in the sum-
mer darkness, but long after they had
disappeared Miss Winston stood at her
gate inhaling the fumes of burned pow
der and enjoying them as true Daugh-
ter of the American Revolution should.

THE FOURTH IN HISTORY.
Events of National Progress Bearing
IL. c.nus.S..s.n M

Events of National Progress Bearing
the Classical Date.
On the Fourth of July, 1904, the
Lewis and Clark exploring expedition
reached the country known as Kansas.
On that date, ninety weight years ago,
the intrepid explorers stood where the
city of Atchison is located to-day.
There they celebrated the national
birthday and at the same time estab-
lished a new state and what Is now one
of the finest and most important cities.
On the Fourth of July, 1917, the work
of excavating the Erie canal was be-
gun.
On the Fourth of July, 1925, the Mi
ami canal was commenced. This was
intended to connect the Ohio with Lake
Erie.
On the Fourth of July, 1928, the cor
nerstone of the new Baltimore and
Ohio railroad was laid at Baltimore.
At that time the railroad was built Of
wooden rails on which fiat bars of iron
were spiked.
On the Fourth of July, 1882, the first
six miles of the Baltimore and Susque-
hanna railroad were opened to travel.
The motive power was mule team.
Within a year, however, the road had
been heightened to twenty-five miles
and steam power introduced.
On the Fourth of July, 1861, the first
pole of the telegraph line from st.
Louis to San Francisco was set up. A
remarkable feature of the undertaking
was the building of the eastern section
of the line, that part between Omaha
and Salt Lake City. 1t was carried
through at the rate of ten miles day.
On the Fourth of July, 1874, the great
steel arched bridge over the Mississippi
at st. Louis was opened. This bridge
cost $10O00,00O and is considered one
of the greatest instances of engineering
in the world
On the Fourth of July, 1913, the cor
nerstone of the Washington monument
was laid. This is the highest monu-
ment in the world, its capstone being
555.5 feet above the base.
