'trulY. YOU are a god"

truly, you are god''
 The daimio. smiling with pleasure, proposed a ride through the park to see the magic springtime. The de- lighted princess clapped her hands, and the brilliant procession of gayly-clad courtiers headed by the prince and his daughter started slowly down the winding avenue. What a delicious perfume scents the air!" cried the princess. l Surprised, the daimio realized that the soft odOrs of the spring flowers did indeed All the air The secret was that every few rods a fire of sweetest i'm cense burned in carefully hidden bra- ziers,
 Presently an especially beautiful pink plum tree caught the attention of the princess.
 'I wish a branch of that tree," she cried, happily. Tt will be a memory of one of the most beautiful prom snades of my life."
 The daimio looked uneasily at the minister.
 "She will discover the cheat" he thought But Nai-da-tsin did not trembIe nor grow pale.
 Grant me the honor to pluck it for you," he said.
 He rode up to the tree and brought back a superb branch. The princess seized it, burying her face in tho fresh. rosy flowers. s
 The daimio was more surprised than before. He did not guess that tho prime minister had emptied all the greenhouses of all the palaces and had prepared mary trees for just such an occasion.
 You are a wonderful man." the prince cried to his prime minister. when they returned to the palace. "You are absolutely magician. But tell me, what can I do next year to surpass this marvellous fete?"
 The prime minister smiled slowly. He pointed to charming young man. son of the prince of Satsuma. who was aiding Princess Fiaki to alight from her coach.
 When another year has passed, and the princess receives another birthday as a gift from the gods, give her for a husband that charming prince. She will love him more than she does f springtime."
 The daimio handed the minister . key of bronze, incrusted with gold.
 This is the key to my treasures," he said. Take it and make what use of it you will. You are more valuable to me than gold or precious stoneS.- Translated for the N. Y. Sun.

gether for the pleasures of social in. tercourse, remarked that the most iso. lated farmhouse holds more social cheeriness than the average Chicago apartment house. At the meeting over leo persons were assembled, consid- erable nucleus for the organization.
 once heard man whose home was Tn the Hawaiian islands, which is looked upon by the world in general as about as lonely spot as ever was dropped down in wide waters, say the ioneliest hours he ever spent, the most 1orlo-n, was when his travels landed him in New York. He knew only one man there. that man a busy editor. and there he was an outcast ia mil llonaire outcast, however, in a place teeming with people, in a place where everybody knew everybody save him. self seemed to know hosts of other bodies.
 Responsibility is to make one eli gible, as I understand it, to become a member of the Strangers club, let ters patent to that effect from the town one has quilted for residence in Chi. caso: 1t ewilf be ii matter of interest 10 observe how the club progresses. and, for we are optimistic and also have belief that suspiciousness is rus tic and provincial. we rather believe the club will flourish
 There is another club, in Chicago where strangers are cordially vel. comed. but not all strsngers-one must be Lion or Lioness to gain entrance to the favors of the charmed circle. We refer to the Twentieth Century. whose members are folk of such social importance they cannot waste. their precious time. One can always know it is a Who's Who" that has been asked to address this club. The war correspondent, Frederick Palmer, has just spoken to the members, and Henry James is the next lion to ap. pear.

has room to anyone requesting it. she does not say are you or are you not an erring woman: but she makes this stipulation. so long as the guest re- mains at the Model Lodging House she must behave.
 The institution is not wholly self supporting, the women's clubs of Chi cago supply the deficit. supply about two-thirds of the amount needed to rnu the place. One can get a bed here for l5 cents. breakfast for , cents, a dinner for 15 cents.
 Many that seek refuge at the Model Lodging House are girls very close to want. out of work, learning a trade; although some are in fairly good cir cumstances and stay because it is cheap.
 The bedrooms are not heated. but the beds are clean and downstairs there is warm sitting-room where the women may come together in so- cial intercourse and in search of bodi- ly comfort. This room has a piano and books. card-tables, quite the air of the ordinary comfortable rest room. The guests may amuse themselves here after dinner until the moment the matron comes in with the an- nouncement. accompanied by a friend ly good night saiutation. that it is time for them to 20 to bed.
 A wise charity.

and he ran swiftly to his own palace noting, with terror, that the shorI winter day was nearly ended. Gather. ing his colleagues around him, he tolc them of the extraordinary demand ot the prince
 There is only one thing to be done,' he went on, noting the fright ened faces about him. Listen! Ws may yet be saved.
 Everyone within three leagues around, men, women, girls anG boys nobles. merchants and peasants, must set instantly to work with silk, velvet satin and paper, and make scores of flowers. Let them cut up their clothes, their hangings; let them make use of their fans, cushions; everything they have.
 Then, before daybreak, all these flowers must be tied, fastened or glued to all the trees and bushes of the park and all the country near the palace; the finest and best near the princess palace and the poorest the furthest away. All the painters and artists must superintend the decorations.
 Take the army, take the hospitals, take the prisons. Every ore must work, no one must stop to eat or drink tonight. Go and remember that your very lives depend upon your sue cesS.'
 Without word the ministers fled immediately from the palace. In less than an hour there was not a palace nor house in the city nor a single village in the country where the in- habitants were not making flowers, and if one had looked that night from the daimio's palace he would have seen thousands of lanterns bobbing about among the trees in every di- rection.
 The next morning, as her women fin ished dressing her. Fiaki heard the sound of sweet singing and many in- struments beneath her window.
 "Ah! it is my birthday to-day" she said, with shiver. Why are the gods so cruel as to cause it to fall in the winter time?" Her women pulled aside the curtains from the window.
 What a beautiful day, mistress" they said.
 Indeed, as if it too were a courier, the sky was clothed in richest blue in which the sun like a golden jewel shone proudly.
 Languidly the princess walked out upon the balcony. But what 8 cry of joy and surprise broAe from her lips! Flowers. flowers, in every direction. and as far as the eye could see The princess rubbed her eyes. Was it a miracle?
 Father, father!" she cried. as the noble prince entered. her apartment.

i factory lnouSnt ciear-we outdid New York. And what more could a Chi cagoan ask?
 This is the way the Chicago papers reported it: With the largest number of automobiles ever exhibited together in America. comprising every type known to the trade. and representing products of the leading makers of the United States and Europe, with con- prehensive display of parts and access sories and articles relating to automo- billing; with every available foot Of floor space crowded to its capacity, the fourth annual exhibition of the Ma tional Association of Automobile Maru- lecturers opened.
 New York had only 267 machines; We had $50 fully set up cars. Tc fitly describe these. We must again borrow from the reporter: There were touring cars of four cylinders and of two. cars propelled by gasoline and by steam. cars with cape tops and with canopy tops, cars of 15-horse power and of 45: cars yellow. white, green, blue. ma room and black, cars that cost $500. and cars that cost SS,O00. But the touring cars were by no means the whole exhibition. There were run abouts and limousines. there were heavy delivery trucks and racing ma chimes. there were stanhopes. vic- torias. landaulets and surreys driven by electricity: there was even an auto mobile made for railroad travel. also there were motor cycles. those compara- lively small and inexpensive hangers on o! the automobile world: but. though comparatively humble. they were not so slow. and had the reputation of being able to make from 40 to so miles an hour.

sons gathered at the Auditorium the night of the concert, and a goodly pile of over $6,00O was netted for carrying on the task undertaken by the child saviors
 For some time past the store win dows have held pictures put there to remind the hurrying passer-by that his aid was needed and asked in an en- terprise that has redounded not little to the fair fame of the city-our juvenile court, an institution considered worthy of study by those grown gray in philan- thropic work. The posters presented a big policeman stoping, with firm but gentle hand, a small urchin with unmis- takable stamp of street waif upon him. The picture was telling one, and made its appeal.
 We are wont to congratulate ourselves that we of to-day have grasped the truth as it never was grasped before concern- ing the value of the ounce of prevention; but we have some hay remembrance that back years ago words were spoken in illustration of this truth-as the twig Is bent, and so on. Still, whether we abrogate too much to modern discern ment or not, it surely is matter for congratulation We make the serious study we do of the youthful offender, do not merely stamp him degenerate, and shut him up with others of his kind. And 1t is also matter for con- graduation the physical need of the waif is recognized, endeavor made to rectify lack here. Judge Mack. as- sisted by other students of juvenile delinquency, is about to conduct experi- ments with the object of proving that moral shortcomings among boys and girls are due to physical defects. Judge Mack is presiding judge of the juvenile court

 On the worlds green grass An that's why we need it. my dearis! lis gold makes the dark day sunny An tempers the blizzard breeze Even the hives that drip with honey Are fed by the golden bees. Oh. 'tis gold for bread,
 An gold for gas. An gold to breathe
