A FOOTLIGHT FAVORITE.

iii Mora Croysdale forgot she
* had ever left the stage. Her
breath came in quick little gasps for
q few seconds; this, after all, was life
the old life which brought new
excitement with every movement, set
the nerves tlngling with the conscious
ness of youth and beauty and made
the world bright with the Joy Of living
1t was something to be queen of
musical comedy ana return to such
triumph as this. Her powers Of con-
quest had not waned, and, like a true
woman, she felt gratlfied. Then her
heart Went out to the thousands who
were cheering themselves hoarse, and
the tears almost came to her eyes.
Who said the public were tickle? She
loved them every one They never for
got their old favorltes.
MORA reflected as she bowed her
acknowledgements that she was not old
as years ago-neither had she lost her
good lOoks-but they would have
cheered her just the same If she had
been old, and--yes, ugly. She was
sure Of It.
After all, she had only been absent
from the boards matter of two or
three years. She remembered her
friends told her she would soon tire of
married life and wish to return to the
stage
Wen, they were partly right. She
wasn't really tired of Dick-only
just little bit bored with too much
humdrum happiness. 1t was a fit OF
the stage fever that had seized her
ana she longed to feel the thrill of
popularity again.
She wanted to compel the admira-
ton of others as she had done in the
old days; to provoke their laughter and
their tears, to win smiles and ap-
plause. How could Dick understand
what all this meant TO a woman-an
actress?
In their quiet country home he had
been content to live as a simple, sport.

He forgot how much the fascination OF
the theater entered into her life.

ing Dick had been In front-that
would have made her perfectly happy.
AT the Savoy, where they made up q
theatrical supper party later on, she
recovered her spirits, but now and
then her thoughts would revert to a
stately old home In Yorkshire, and she
wondered what Dick was doing. Had
he been for his usual stroll around the
grounds that evening with Prince, his
favorite collie?
The days went by very quickly, and
all London was drawn to the Folly
Theater by the news Of MORA Croys-
dale's return. For a time Molra felt
quite happy-except that there were
no letters from Yorkshire. 1t was too
bad of Dick-he might at least have
written.
Now that the excitement of her reap
pearance had died away, MORA had to
admit that she was beginning TO feel
rather fatigued After the hracing air
of Yorkshire, London seemed stuffy.
To be cooped up in a theater every
| night except Sunday was very trying.
Not for a moment would she have
admitted that she did not love the
stage as much as ever but it began to
dawn upon her that she loved Dick
even more than she did the theater.

the same seat nightly at the theater
began TO make himself noticeable.
MORA threw his bouquets into cor.
ner of her dressing room and burst
into tears. She would not have done
so a few years ago. Then she looked
at herself in the glass Yes. she was
beginning to look much paler.
In Yorkshire. she reflected. she had
never even rouged. There was nothing
artificial about Dick, and there was
nothing artificial about Yorkshire.
Next day, Mora made up her mind
suddenly, sent note to the theater
and took north express from Kings
Cross
The journey was a long one, and
owing to a breakdown on the local line
dusk had set in before MORA had
reached her destination. From the sta.
ton to the hall was not far, and Moira
enjoyed the walk. She wanted to take
Dick by surprise.
1t was stately old residence. and
as Mora passed MP the drive-the trees

JOHN PEARCE. his father died,
leaving the mother to carry on the
struggle for q family of hungry chill
dren. One room was all she could af-
ford in which to rear them, and their
poverty was acute. At the age OF 0
years John hired out TO picture max
er ct 81 cents a week. AT the age of
Is he was working for q builder at
the princely wage Of IS cents week.
One day he got drunk-the only time
he ever touched liquor in his life-and
lost his job. Then he worked for a
pastry cook for two years.
In his long tramps to and from
work Pearce observed how great was
the need among casual and other la
borers of good and cheap food. 1t sug-
gested an opportunity for him to be-
come his own master. He hired a cos
termonger's barrow at % cents a
week, bought a humble urn and few
crooks and set out to earn his fortune
as a cheap and perambulating caterer.
He did not even dream then that he
was laying the foundation of a colos-
sal business. 1t developed slowly at
first.
At the end of six months he was
able to turn his shilling-a-week barrow
into what he called "a gutter hotel"
With the knowledge of carpentry and
painting that he had learned at the
builders and Of cooking that he had
mastered at the pastry cooks, he made
the stall so attractive that his receipts
grew until they sometimes reached $50
a day. For thirteen years he stood by
his gutter hotel, at the end of which
time he had saved $6,500 With that
he bought the lease of his first coffee
chop 1t was a success from the start
and his business kept on increasing
until to-day he conducts eighty-one
restaurants, in not one Of which is a
drop of liquor sold. Before he branch
ed out into business for himself he
got religion" and regularly devoted
one-tenth of his income to charity.
The giving away of a 1.-THE of his in
come he has always since regarded as
a sacred obligation.
Some idea of the extent of his bust
ness may be gained from these fig
ures In his eighty-one houses the an
nual consumption OF fresh meat
amounts to 100000 pounds; of baco.ls
225, 900 pounds; of -four, 1000 tons; of
potatoes, 1900 tons; of milk, 265. 900
gallons, and 4,250,000 eggs.

SUBMARINE MINES EFFECTIVE.
They Have Caused More Damage than
Torpedo Boats and Torpedoes.

Torpedo Boats and Torpedoes-
A remarkable fact, which also APP
pears with regard to the torpedo, Is
the infrequent hits made when attack
ing ships at anchor, says the Navy
League Journal. In the first attack
made by the Japanese fleet upon Port
Arthur the japanese destroyers slow
ed down and came within a short dis
lance of the enemy, but with every
thing in their favor of the twenty
three torpedoes discharged only three
made hits On June and 4, when
the entire Russian fleet was outside
the harbor, in long series of attacks
by the Japanese torpedoes not the
slightest damage resulted.
As to ships in motion the torpedo
has been proved to be absolutely use
less. no hits having been made during
the war, although attempts were re-
peatedly had. 1t would, therefore. APP
pear that the efficiency of this weapon
of war has been greatly exaggerated,
for its failure cannot be attributed to
any want of skill or courage on the
part of the japanese, who displayed
at all times the greatest bravery and
GOODNESS.
But if the torpedo has been a dis
appointment the fear of 1t and the ig-
norance concerning it's efficiency pro-
duced marked change in naval ac-
lions. for it forced the fighting be-
tween the large ships at extreme long
ranges and proved that the 6-inch
guns, with which most battleships are
largely armed, were almost useless,
the heavy guns-the u, 10 and inch
only being effective.
The greatest destructive agent en-
ployed by both antagonists, however,
has been the submarine mine. By
this means alone one-seventh Of the
battleships force on either side has
been put out of action and its use con-
stitutes one of the INST serious perlls
of the future unless restrained by in
ternational agreement to territorial
waters The mine has done what the
torpedoes failed to do and the long
list of casualties to its credit proves
it to be most formidable engine of
war.
What has been clearly demonstrated
and can be accepted for the future
guidance Is that torpedoes are not to
be dreaded as formerly; that in an en-
gagement between battleships the
large guns only are effective, and the
submarine mines, while the most'dead-
" OF all modern instruments Of war
fare. are inhuman and barbarous and
should be restrained by the laws of
war.

food easy to digest and containing the

healthy brain will respond to all de-

Letter Found by Girl Gives Her Back
Brother.

Emma Wischnesky is employed by
Herman Rubinstein, a junk dealer at
Paterson, n. j., to sort refuse taken
from the dump heaps. When she came
across a bundle of letters taken from
the ash heaps at Peoples Park she
picked out one with a surname similar
to her own. She laid it aside, and later
was able to read enough of it to con
vince her that it was written by her
brother, whom she believed to be dead
and that he was living in Lodi. five
miles from Paterson. When she left the
old country several years ago her brother
was in the German army. AS she heard
nothing from him, she decided she was
the only member of the family living.
Recently she hunted up the writer of
the letter and found her brother alive
and well. The brother said he had been
injured in the service, and that, after
being in the hospital a short time, he
took French leave" and came TO this
country. He had written to his sister,
but, as he never received a reply, he
supposed she was dead. Wischnesky
also explained that he had written to n
friend In Paterson, but how his letter
got into the ash heap he could not tell.
