his bo oks.
At the time of the miners strike,
when the price of coal was soaring,
the good Father discovered that the
coal supply of the church was prac-
tically exhausted and there was no
money In the treasury to purchase
more. Accordingly he announced that
he intended taking up a collection for
this purpose, and taking plate, after
his sermon he went up and down the
aisles, giving every one chance to
contribute.
Much to his surprise, as he extended
the plate towards one 'old con of the
sod" he was given shrewd smile and

Where sorrow is and smile.

The weary and the sick at heart
May see YOU sweetiy smile.

For few rewards and small,
How may you help to mako the world
A brighter world for all?
Though driven hard and sOrely pressed

Distressed and embarrassed, the girl
glanced from one suitor to the other
from the soldierly figure in the smart
uniform to the manly figure in the old
brown suit. AS she hesitated the lieu
tenant broke in, impressively:
after all your talk of patriotism,
Helen-all your fiery urging that every
man must now give account of himself
do you hesitate between the man who
goes to the front and the man who stays
behind?"
The girl glanced up quickly. Her eyes
rested on the proud handsome face of
the young soldier; then on that of the
civilian. The latter's went blood-red
then CHASTITY white, and his hands worked
convulsively. She put up her hand with
an imperative motion.

went up imperiously. There shall be
no quarrel here. | will not give an an

ism is not motive enough, Robert, ]
would suggest that you stay home"
Then she turned and fled through the
door to the inner room, where all the
women of the town were sewing indus
triously upon big flag.
The two youths looked into each 9TH
er's eyes with uuflinching gaze. Then
each turned on his heel and went his
way.
At last the fateful day arrived. The
orders TO march had come. In a few
hours the company of brave young souls
would be on their way. to the field of
honor-and of death. All was hustle
and excitement In the camp on the
green In the homes were wumen's tears
and breaking hearts AS from the be-
ginning, it was mems to do and work,
women's to wait and weep.
On the rose-clad porch of pretty cot
tage stood girl OF Is. Her eyes were
dim with unshed tsars, the roses had de-
serted her cheeks. The sharp COM
mands on the green and the shrill calls
of the bugle smote upon her breast. The
time for the departure of the company
was but a half hour away.
A quick step resounded ON the walk.
the gate was flung open and the young
lieutenant stood before her, hat In hand
and with strange. pale dignity In his
face.
The girl had known who It was the mo-
ment she heard bis step. The color re-
turned to her cheek. She looked into
