Aarvard,s President Appreciated.

Some years ago a physician was1
summoned in haste to attend patient
at N. On arriving at the island,
and inquiring for conveyance to the
house he wished to visit, he was d.
rected to farmhouse. Here the doc
tor found man, whom he requested
to harness horse, at the same time,
in the interest of his patient, desir-
ing him to be lively.
The man pleasantly and promptly
complied, harnessed the horse, and
was speedily driving over the road at
a good rate. The doctor discussed
farming, and was struck with the gen.
eral information and conversational
powers of the driver. On arriving at
the house half dollar was rendered
the man, but it was politely declined.
What is the name of your intelli-
gent farmer?" asked the doctor, after
he had finished his professional visit.
What, the gentleman who brought
you to the house? That was Presi-

Here is an ideal suggestion for a
dressy afternoon gown. The material
employed Is pale gray colienne and
the skirt is made with a single box
7lait in front and back, with groups
of side plaits over the hips. A de-
cidedly novel and attractive jacket
opens on the shoulders and is toined
by narrow straps of the material and
tiny cut-steel buttons. matching those
used at the closing down front. This
is worn over rich blouse of embroid-
cred batiste, whose sleeves are formed
of four flounces of embroidery. The
chic little turban is pale gray Nea-
politan, with black velvet band and
a bunch OF white tips.

Go on with the good work, Mr..

"Then, again, there was great
beauty in the fountains and
streams, pure and clear, from L

flowing with great freedom.
perhaps the browning feature
of beauty in the north of Palestine
are the glorious snow-clad slopes
of Mount Hermon, which can be
seen from the top of every pass
