cuEER. COURAGE PEACE.

There are more unknown heroines than celebrated
ones The truly noble heroine does not proclaim
her deeds TO world; she about in her quiet
wav seeking whom she may aid. She keeps her
life simple and strong: she is never insincere; is
not afraid TO frankly, but not rudely, condemn in
Justice and questions earnestly what she does not
understand.
When trials and obstacles stare her. instead Of
suceumbing she is bravely up and dong-for the
sake of somebody else
The nurse who bravely cares for her charges de-
spite the fact that friends forsake. is heroine
indeed The woman who bravely battles with lite's
vicssitudes, who comforts the sorrowing, aids the
weak and, through the strength of her will and
sweet temper born OF sorrow. diffuses courage and
patience is a heroine.
The heroine puts self In the background always
she lives for the good that she can do instead OF
hghting against fate, she endeavors to grasp 1t and
control it, and. other lives pass by she endeavors
TO soften them, too.
The heroine. wherever she goes. carries with her
cheerfulness courage and peace; she gives out the
JOY and happiness that she gamers and tells the
rest 10 the Creator
Evil is abroad. and need many heroines; the
children of to-day. let hope. will furnish the St
George OF tomorrow and give a glorious land

In wonder workings, bush afame,
Men look for God, and fancy Him concealed;

That CLEANS beyond the stars for longing eyes.

Enters General Denial of His Guilt-Silver-
mans Methods Condemned

The trial of Captain Edison A. Lewis was continued
at the Army Building yesterday. Captain Lewis s
defence before his brother officers was a general
denial Of the allegations set forth by Silvsrman-
A large number of officers testified in his behalf

transactions with army and navy officers, Silver
man was quoted saying that he was known TO
nearly every officer in both branches OF the service.
and that his dealings had been fair and aboveboard
He was further quoted saying that his dealings
with officers included all ranks up to lieutenant
generals in the army and high officers in the navy.
General Wade declared this statement was absurd.
All the army officers were INDIGNANT over the asser-
tons OF SHERMAN to his lending money by

cOMFORT FOR LITTLE ONES.

The views lately expressed by "Hopeful' are
right and reasonable: she advises the lulng Of the
baby to sleep in his mothers arms.
The true reason why women are not as apt as
men in throwing balls and taking aim, is because
the arm of a is made for different pur-
pose. it meant to be cradle. The instinct of
helplessness IN young infant makes it crave to
be petted and held. The child that is not sent
off and separated from the mother will usually be
healthier it VIII be better preserved from danger,
and the tie of love between parent and child grow
vastly stronger. When the children of to-day have
grown up, they will not have the memories of low
ing care and tending that we had. They will re-
member the mechanical methods OF rearing with
about as much affection chicken feels for the
incubator. The old way of oaby's sleeping at
night his mothers arm prevented pneumonia
frghts and accidents sometimes too shocking to
be dwelt upon.
Among "the few good things OF life'' one OF the
very sweetest and most satisfying has been the
tender hushng OF my little to rest--in my
arms when they were infants. and at my side, with
prayer and Bible story, after they were older.
