a Ieellug OF unusual religious Inter
est was passing through a small col
lege. 1t manifested it's influence ir
many ways, most Of them hopeful
some rather perilously prophetic of 9
reaction. The president of the col
lege and the pastor Of the church were
comforting together as to the best ways
of making the interest effective fol-
the perma nent good of the students
and together they discussed several
cases Of students who had exhibited
marked changes in their lives.
Here are two letters" said the pres.
tdent, (which am confident show real
advances in spiritual life. l will not
read the names, but they are both
young people already. active in Chris
tan work, and know that these two
letters cost them much.'
The first was from young man. He
returned a library book, and with it a
sum Of money nearly equal to its first
cost. He had taken 1t from the library,
he said, without having 1t charged, but
with no intention of stealing it. He
had access to the shelves, and 1t was
after the hours for drawing books, and
the book was a duplicate. When the
time had expired within which the
book should have been returned, he
was still using it, and felt embarrassed
at returning it and explaining how 1t
happened to be in his possession in Vio-
lation Of the rules; so he had waited
thinking soon to return it unseen, But
the time had gone on, and the purpose
to return 1t had nearly If not quite
gone. He had kept it with a feeling
OF guilt, yet with no real purpose to
restore 1t. Now he had come to feel
the shame Of 1t, and to realize that
what he had begun 80 easily had Just
as easily continued till it made him
thief. He was no longer willing to
return the book unseen, but wished to
confess the wrong, and return with
the book the fine which would have
been due upon 1t If it had been charg-
cd against his name.
The other was from a young woman.
She wished, she said, to correct the
record of her age by adding two years
to 1t. She had been compelled to work
her way up to college, and thus far
through college, and felt sensitive
about being older than the other girls
OF her class. And so she had lied. She
mad not intended to do so at the out
set; but the registrar copied her age
incorrectly, and she let it go, and since
then had made her statements con-
form to the false record. She had
come to feel more deeply, what all the
time had been more or less upon her
conscience, that her age was no dis
grace, but that the lie was. even
though no one knew It but herself and
God.
The president was not wrong In his
expectation. With some of the stu-
dents the period of thoughtfulness WINS

DoINos IN THEIR HOUSE.
One Woman Who Triumphed Be- cause She Acted in a Sem
 sible Manner. r..

Once there was a wise woman whc permitted her husband to smoke where ever he chose in the house, and who did not object if he struck matches on the woodwork or dropped ashes on the floor, relates the Chicago Tribune Eventually the man began going down town nights and otherwise absentins himself from home Did the woman weep? Did she repine? Not any. She did not even go and tell her mother about 1t. She sat down and thought for a moment and decided upon 6 course of action.
 Next time her husband struck { match on the woodwork she told hin he mustn't do that any more-that sht wasn't going to have her house look ing like a barn; and when he dropped ashes on the floor she advised him noi to do that, as it was too much bother cleaning up after him. and she intend ed that her house should be neat ant we'll kept Then, finally, she said ht mustn't smoke In the house. as fl scented the curtains and vitiated the atmosphere. and she didn't want hei house to smell like a tobacco shop. So ever since then the man has stayed at home continuously. excep' while at work. just to show her tha he has as much to say about what shal be done in that house as she has.

EASY TO "LlE IT BACK"
Tiny Miss Was Not at Loss to Re. call Secret Thoughtlessly

The Hotel Belleclaire houses one of those rare anomalies-a woman who does things contrary to the advice of her husband, says the New York Times. One of the things to which that unreasonable man objects is the occasional touching up'' of his wife's hair. Notwithstanding his forcibly expressed opinion on the subject, the rejuvenating process was undergone one day last week at the hands of q professional hairdresser. Bessie, the four-year-old daughter, was an inter- ested observer of the operation. ? Now, Bessne." said her mother. when the hairdresser had gone, "I don't want you to say anything to your father about mamma having he'd her hair dressed Do you understand? If you don't tell him perhaps he won't notice it."
 Of course Bessie promised to main- tain a discreet silence. which she did up to six o'clock when. meeting her father at the corner, the secret was promptly sacrificed on the altar of fil- ial affection. The man was mad and lost no time in saying so. Afte- he got through talking Bessie was inter- viewed by her other parent.

OLD PRINTING PRESS
HAS BEEN IN USE IN THIS COUNTRY SINCE 1888.
It Was the First Printing Machine in Use in the American Col onies-Did Good Work
 for Harvard.

The ancient Daye printing press. which up to recent date had been in use at Harvard university, is now on ex- hibition in the rooms of the Vermont Historical society, at Montpelier. This press has seen service since 1888 and was the first instrument of its kind in use in the colonies. Itwas brought from England and set up in Cambridge, Mass, the same year that John Harvard founded the university that bears his name. Stephen Daye saw prospects for the establishment of prosperous print such plans in view he left England and set himself up ip the college town.
 The first American books, the earliest editions of state laws, colonial money and early newspapers were printed upon this ancient press. and for more than 150 years hae remained in fairly good condition. .....
 Its first production was broadside of the Freeman's Oath, ther the Alma nac circulated for New England, and in due course the Bay psalm book. s...
 Daye carried on the printing business until 1649, when Samuel Green and Marinadalle Johnson came into posses sion of the office and press and con- ducted the business. ...
 The Daye press passed into the pos session of Harvard college in 1856. In 1714 1t became the property of Timothy Green. a Boston printer and descendant of Samuel Green. who removed to New London, Conn.,. taking the press thence.
 The press remained in the Green fam fly until 1772, when it was purchased by Alden Spooner and set up by him at Norwich, Conn, in the printing office in which Alden Spooner, Judah Paddock Spooner and Timothy Green were part ners. It was next moved to Vermont and set up in Dresden.
 According to the best obtainable in- formation the first printing done at the Dresden office on this press was pam phlet containing the sermon preached by Rev. Aaron Hutchinson before the constitutional convention at Windsor, July 2, 1777. The pamphlet bears' no date, but it is reasonable to assume that the sermon was printed soon after the Spooners became state printers" , Although the story of the career of this ancient press is practically the his tory of early colonial printing itself, the colonies were comparatively late in adopting the art, with regard to it's in- troduction in other parts of the new world. ...
 The first press in the new world was established in 154O at the City of Mexico. and was followed by one at Lima, Peru, A years later Stephen Daye estab- lished the printery at Harvard univer- sity and although late improvements have been added. the old University press as it was known then, still exists
 The question, Where did printing originate?" has remained open for

ROYAL CASTLE. BUDAPEST.

October is generally observed by them as day of mourning0
 Though the armed resistance was put down. the Hungarians were not conquered; were able to prevent the coronation of Franz Joseph as king of Hungary. they would not adopt laws dictated by him. This state of affairs continued until 1867, when a settle ment was brought about by the great Hungarian statesman, Francis Deak.
 A summary of this statement is given in a very interesting article in the Chicago Record-Herald: Austria and Hungary are bound into a dual monarchy by the famous ausgleich, or compromise, of 1867. Austria and Hun gary are granted the right of control over their respective governmental functions. It provides for those branches of administration which con- trol affairs common to both countries. Legislation pertaining to foreign and military affairs. such as assenting to treaties. providing conditions of mill tary service, etc, is reserved to the in- dependent action of both legislatures; but practically these bodies are ex- pected to agree. There are three com mon departments of ministry-foreign affairs. finance and war. The expenses of these departments are borne jointly by both countries and both countries have ppu2I cou+roJ oysr tho-.

It was agreed that the monarch was to be called emperor of Austria and king of Hungary. and the monarchy was 10 be called the Austro-H Hungarian empire"
 In the conference alluded to some time back wherein Francis Kossuth figured with Franz Joseph. no agreement was arrived al. Another conference was called later. and the coalition leaders jOurneyed to Vienna How were they received? Franz Joseph spoke 10 the Hungarians in German. contrary to his usual courteous custom, and accounted an intentional grievous insult: he did not offer to shake hands. another af- front to the Hungarlans.
 Probably we shall ere long begin to realize that poor old Franz Joseph is really two persons: sometimes the king of Hungary. again emperor of Austria. Pulled this way. pulled that. the two persons in one may shortly come to grief Rumor says the recent defiant attitude shown the Hungarians in con ference. is but prelude to Franz Joseph giving up the reins of government. that he will abdicate and let the young CT man. Archduke Francis Ferdinand assume the heavy double responsibili- ties.

dealt with formally; and we have the interesting spectacle of Emperor Jo- seph seeking audience with Francis Kossuth, son of his. great enemy, Louis Kossuth, the man who suggested he himself be made king, the man that died in exile in Italy refusing the am nesty offered after the close of the revolution of 1S48. His son, Francis is leader of the independent party of Hungary, and has been named a possi- ble ruler in case of disruption of the union with Austria. The father, you remember, when he offered to put on the crown of St. Stephen, deemed the Hapsburgs had forfeited all right to the sacred emblem of kingship.

 to the fact that in 1S4S there was a demand for constitutional rights abroad in Europe. The Magyars were most insistent for the restoration of strictly constitutional government. Franz Joseph tried minor concessions, but refused the great one. The Hun garians, led by Louis Kossuth, began an armed revolt, and in battle after battle were successful against the dis ciplined Austrian troops. Austria in- voked the aid of Russia, the revolt was controlled.

years. and there has been but little sat isfactory information on this point. However. it is the popular belief that the Chinese originated the art. As early as 50 years before Christ the orientals are known to have made impressions upon paper, from engraved wooden blocks.
 England first became acquainted with printing through William Caxton, whose name has become immortal through his introduction of the art into the British Isles. He printed several editions of Chaucers works. and these are now pointed 10 as the first printed books which the Britishers ever read John Gutenberg holds for himself the honor of establishing typography. However, he has a strong rival in L. J. Cos ter. a HollEader who acquired some fame through his inventions of wood type and later metal
 The system employed by early Chi nese is interesting in the extreme The work which it Is intended to print was put on thin transparent paper. Each of these sheets was then pasted down ward upon a block of wood and an en- graysr with suitable tools cuts away the portion of the block and paper upon which nothing is drawn. thus leaving the characters iu relief and producing a printing block. To print the block is linked and a sheet of paper placed over it A brush is run over the paper and the proof is pulled" The Chinese are credited with having used movable type as early as the twelfth ansd thirteenth centuries. and such types are now used extensively by European missions in Chiua The chief difficulty in using movable types for Chinese york is that each word requires a separate chsrzc- ter instead as ia European languages. of being composed of letters.
