AUNT BUSY HAS HER SAY.

Dear Nieces and Nephews:
Aunt Busy has returned from her happy vaca-
ton IN the mountains with many regrets for the
blue water of Lake Tahoe, the blue mountains and
blue sky. She really felt "blue7 herself on leaving
what seemed paradise.
do you remember what she wrote about her
little friend, the Indian childl Well the little one
has promised to write to Aunt Busy next week;
SO watch for interesting letter. @
The little girl can read, write and spell as
well as any of Aunt Busy's nieces and nephews.
She attends the Indian school at Carson, New,
during the year and is considered very bright
little girl Aunt Busy coaxed quite while before
the little one would, consent to write, but finally
she was very pleased at the idea. She kept say
ing: Yes, Aunt Business, ] write to you, sure
oh, sure, Aunt Business" So "Amt Business" left
an addressed envelope with the little ones mother
and she surely expects the letter next week.
Aunt Busy has no letters this week at ALL and
she IS feeling very sad indeed No wonder she
goes away up into the California mountains and
tries to induce the little red Indians to write to
her. Sorrowfully yours
AUNT BUSY

A Question of PAY.

Would you mind going round by Court street
to-night!' said Margery, as she and Vida Moore
came out of school together.
Not bit I'd just as lief go that way Have
you an errand2'
Margery nodded. Il promised Mrs Plummer
that I'd go to the hardware store and ask them to
send man to see about her stove She's so lame,
you know, that it's hard for her to get around to
places"
Il never saw such girl as you, Margery IngIis p
Vida exclaimed, with a little laugh. you're al
ways doing errands for somebody. IF you were
paid for what you do, you'd have pretty good
salary, [ guess"
A contented laugh rippled from Margery's lips.
They do pay me-" she said; and then as Vida
stared in surprise, she went on merrily. 'Not in
money, of course, anything like that. But all
the people | know so lovely to me; they always
seem so glad to see me when | got to their homes,
they really and truly loved me. And that's the
and they do the incest things for me- and act as if
kind of pay | like best of ALL"
"Of course they love you'll" Vida said, earn
estly with afectionate look at her friend
Nobody could help it. And if that is the kind of
pay you like best, you'll always get it. and plenty
of it. too
Vida spoke truly, for the heart that expresses
its love in kindly helpfulness to others is always
repaid with love.

fore Mrs Barker about eleven O'Clock.

Mary, and here's fifty cents for you to buy some
thing with he announced, dropping a handful of
change in her lap.

much, did /! What's gone downw
"Nothin'," replied Sam, gayly; its business
that's gone up. And, perched on the of
old rocker, his dusty bare feet swinging, Sam told
of his mornings venture. He had not expected it
to mean so much to Aunt Mary. Something in her
face told him more plainly than he had ever known
how many burdens she carried, and how it ,cheered
her to have some other hand begin to lift little
That's fine Sammy, fine. I'll the money
to buy some stuff for your new shirts, and it'll be
a big help"
20, III earn a lot more,' answered small Sam,
with the lofty Indifference of one to whom such
was a mere trifle. He wondered, though, why
he had not thought of helping Aunt Mary before
or realized that the support of the family was
mans affair.
That afternoon there was a deal of pounding
and hammering in the old barn, and the next morn
ing there was much larger box fastened to the
old wheels, box which bore in very red and un-
letters the words, "Barkers Express" That
the beginning of Sans business life; the
clumsy wagon and its enterprising young owner
became an institution in that country community.
1t was years ago, and he is busy prosperous, re-
spected man now, but if any one would ask him the
road to success, he would be likely to answer with
twinkle of his eyes:
oh it's right along the line of the work you
have to do. Never mind whether you like it or not
long it has to be done Study its possibilities
and make business of it."

Religion for That Region.

The Rev Y. D. Carroll, prominent southern
clergyman, tells the following story, says the Mo
bile Register. Eve were driving out one Sunday
from Decatur, when we came upon negro with a
club in his hand and freshly killed 'possum on
his shoulder We stopped to examine his prize, and
the colonel said:
MY friend, do you know it is SundayT

he held the 'possum up with hand and scratched
his head with the other, Does you spect any black
man in Alabama is gwine to tie hisself up to any
religion dat Fows 'possum to walk right across

A Recommends.

Young Edward, aged six, was quite tired of
staying in the house. His mother was i'll and had
tried to keep him in the room with her because her
room was warmer than his playroom but his toys
were all in the playroom, and he became restless
to go to them.
Goodbye, mamma" he said, Il will come back
in thousand years"
I will be dead and buried by that time SON.
The little fellow stopped a moment with his
hand upon the door, and, thinking of the creed, he
replied:
Never mind, mamma, you will rose again.

rYPHooN CAUGHT PATHFINDER.
Coast Survey Steamer Piled on Reef
in Samoa


The officials of the coast survey service
bureau in this city have recently received
report of the damage done the big steamer
Pathfinder of the coast survey service,
which has been employed in making sur
veys in the Pacific islands for the past two
or three years, in the typhoon which swept
over the Island of Samoa and the Philip
pines in the latter part of September. The
Pathfinder was blown ashore on a reef on
the coast Of Samoa. and when the storm
abated she was left lying with her bow out
of the water and only five feet under her
stern. Her rudder was broken. and the
pounding she received on the reef damaged
a number of the steel plates of her bottom.
Only the strong construction of the ship
saved her from being G. total loss. She was
foated with much difficulty and was taken
to Manila, where she is now being repaired.
The Pathfinder was built at Elizabeth,
n. J.. in 1899, and is the largest vessel in
the coast survey service. She Is 1I6.S feet
long and has a draft of Is feet. Soon after
being built she visited this city and lay
here for a week more fitting out for
voyage to the Pacific She has been on the
Pacific continuously since that time. The
steamers Fathomer and Research of the
coast survey Philippine service were also,
the reports say, caught in the typhoon that
damaged the Pathfinder but they succeed
ed in weathering the storm without dam
age. The Pathfinder had narrow escape
from total destruction on the reef, and it
will, it is understood be several msnths be-
fore she is again ready for service.

Third Generation of Penn Treaty Elm.

From the PhiladeipHia hecofu
In the grounds of the Pennsylvania Hos
pital, at Sth and Pine streets, stands an
old elm tree which towers high and spreads
its branches far, yet which suggests, at
least at this season of the year, the inev-
liable decay and passing away which is the
fate of all mundane things.
Great disappointment was felt recently
when slip planted from this tree languish-
ed and died. and attempts are to be made
to grow another, because the, tree is a d.
rect representative of the Great Elm of
Kensington, under which, 1t is said, William
Penn, the proprietor of Pennsylvania, made
his perpetual treaty of amity with the In
dams,
When the Treaty Elm was destroyed by
a storm. March 3. 1870 a scion was tr><ls-
planted to these grounds, a cutting of which
was planted at this spot in 1S41 by Charles
Roberts, a manager, and William Maiin
steward.
