The Pool of Sloan.

For over ten years the Pool of ST.
loan has been only a name. Visitors
to Palestine who visited this famous
spot of late years found that it's heal
ing waters had vanished This was
a great blow to the Inhabitants. but re-
Gently the waters of Sloan have been
made to flow once again. and there
has been great rejoicing in the holy
land. It appears that Jerusalem has
been especially short of water of late,
and it occurred to some OF the inhabi-
tants OF Sloan to try TO find out
whether the spring which used to
supply the pool was really dry. Tons
of accumulated rubbish were cleared
away, and after about months work
the spring was found. The excavators
discovered behind some fallen rocks
an old aqueduct running away into the
valley Of the Kedron, and into this
aqueduct the beautiful, cool, clear
water had run and been wasting for
years.-Sunday Companion.

THE PICTURE BLOUSE.
A Delicate Green Glace Silk Embroid.
cred in Small Posies Is
Thing of Beauty.

The term picture blouse seems con-
fined to those that are heavily en-
broidered, and the handsomer the en-
broidery the more does the name full
fill it's mission. One beautiful waist
was made of peau de cygne, as glossy
as mirror, while the embroidery was
in dull silks, made more beautiful by
the contrast with the background.
One of the picture blouses was in
the most delicate cloud green silk
glace The design was as of a bou-
quet of small flowers done in their
own tones. The design was little
at one side of the waist, extending
over and across the front and trailing
over the other shoulder. A compan.
ion waist to this was in the lightest
pink, with flowers done in red and
white and forget-me-not blue.

COMPULSORY INSURANCE.
How 1t Works Out in Practice With
Working People.

Working People.
From 1885 to 1909 the sum Of $432,-
100000 was expended by the various
insurance systems in Germany for the
restoration of the health of working
men and their families. One-third Of
this sum was paid in by the employ
ers. There is no doubt, says Vice
Consul Schlemmer of Mannh elm. that
it would have cost double if the men
had been compelled to pay everything
out of their own pockets, the moder-
ate medical charges now being regu-
lated by these insurance laws. AS a
matter OF fact, people would not other
wise be able to spend SO much money
for medical treatment, and a great
many would perish or be permanently
disabled for lack Of proper treatment:
and the disabled ones would remain
ity. 1t also appears that physical and
intellectual conditions of the laboring
classes generally have been greatly
improved by this protective insurance
system, as evidenced by the reduction
Of mortality at industrial centers,
which now is only 21 per 1000 inhabi-
tants, again 271s before the law took
effect. Although food products are
much higher in price than formerly,
consumption has increased in quantity
six per cent per capital. showing that
the buying power Of the people has
been greatly increased through the in.
surance funds and higher wages.

Italian vegetable soup requires a

but it is very good, and is supper

potatoes, parsley, celery, spinach, a
cupful of butter, nutmeg, cinnamon,
pepper, salt, cheese and bread. Put
the beef on covered with cold water
and add large pinch OF salt. Cut all
the vegetables in small pieces, but do
not chop. When the meat has cooked
for nearly an hour, put all the vege-

AN ATTRACTIVE PORCH.
How q Simple Householder with q
Small Porch Can Give It an Out
door Appearances.

So many OF our leisure hours are,
spent on the porch in summer that it
Is OF great Importance to have it as at
.ractive and convenient as possible.
It Is much harder to make small
porch attractive than large one,
where well-designed pieces of furni-
.ure look we'll against a delightful set
ting Of trees and vines, but in the
suburban districts the housekeeper of
little means has many problems to be
solved. 1t is necessary to bring the
outdoor feeling as much as possible
On to tho porch.
Pots of growing plants, or boxes
fastened on to the woodwork of the
porch, serve as screen from passers
BY, and are always attractive to those
sitting on the porch. These can be
covered with pieces of Virginia cork
nailed irregularly against the sides of
the boxes, and give a very attractive
rustic appearance.
Fern baskets may also be hung in
the spaces between the posts, and on
the posts themselves little brackets
,an be placed, one above the other, for
holding pots of growing flowers.
Another holder of flowers seldom
seen, would be one of the Japanese
bamboos, which must be nailed to the
posts, and can either be filled with
water, and have fresh flowers placed
in them, or can be filled with soil, and
contain some quickly growing creep
ers planted in the openings, giving a
most attractive appearance to the set
ting of the porch.
The large growing plants placed on
the floor, either in a corner or near
the steps, are always an attractive
addition, and this is usually the only
decoration found on the average porch.
The largest size of lard buckets can
be planted dark green, and these can
be placed on the grass and in front
Of the porch, and if they are kept
filed with growing nasturtiums,
would bloom during the hot months.
Three of them in front of the porch
would give quite an air to a modest
porch. and one would feel indeed that
one had a pleasant garden, without
the trouble of breaking ones back to
plant the seeds and care for them. If
preferred, they could simply be used
as receptacleS for the flower pots
holding the plants which have been
indoors during the winter months.
Chinese vegetable baskets are even
more decorative if they can be pro-
cured, as they are low and wide. If
more contrivances were thought out
for comfort, many things could be
done outdoors which are usually done
in the house.-Chicago Inter Ocean.

When a little human machine Cor q

the fishing industry promises to be
revolutionized. 1t has been found that
the rays of an electric light under the
water hypnotize the denizens OF the
deep. When they see the rays they
flock to them like moth to flame,
and nothing can drive them away a.
long as the light shines. If it il

FIRST CLASS TuM1LERs.

They Were Without Stand and Ac-

or horn without a stand, SO that once

At the first the Anglo-Saxons used a

introduced for use among the upper
classes the horn still retained It's

his estate among his sons before his
death. The sons. however, quarreled

that the old man made q journey to
York cathedral, where, having made
certain vows. he filled his drinking
horn with wine, and, kneeling before

by saving Lord Chugmough . good
many thousand pounds, and probably
the lives OF the crew as we'll.
And 1t Is also known that when Sir
Galloping Grace and the other mem-
bers of Lord Chugmough's party
turned their backs on the washed -out
city OF Bolivar to return to Pedro
Francisco's hospitable plantation, the
Cheerway was already plowing the
waters OF the subsiding Orinoco to re-
gain her deserted anchorage OF Boil
var.
Two days later, on a beautiful clear
day, when the hot sun was beating
down on the decks, Captain Glover
stood on the bridge-his throne. and a
more secure one than was the ambi-
ton of the false Philip of Aragon--
with the visor of his cap pulled low
over his eyes to shade them from the
giare, watching with considerable
wonder and pleasure, the splendid
scenery of the north shore near which
he was running, the wonder being that
all nature could be so beautiful and
smiling SO soon after the tempestuous
experience of few days before.
Now and then Captain Glover raised
a pair of glasses to his eyes and swept
the verdure-clad shore, noting the
many-cOlOred flowers which certainly
must have bloomed since the storm,
for they could not have lived through
it.
Ah." he said to himself, giving q
characteristic grunt at the same time,
now l know where l am. l remem-
Der that mountain. Now, that's 4
queer place for mountain. It's al
ways been my opinion that a noun
tain is necessarily land animal. But
this is square in the river-sort OF am
phibious mountain, as it we're"
And smiling at his own joke, tho
captain continued to study the bold
outlines and lofty eminen.a of the
mountain that had attraesed him,
which was no other than the island Of
the Clouds, which has alreacy played
a not unimportant part in the history
of some of our friends.
Every minute brought the rapid
yacht nearer to the mountaia, and
after an hour or so Captain Glover
raised the glass again to take auother
and closer survey.
The same day he rescued Dona
Maria, Jacinta and their American
protector and the Cheerway bore them
up the Amazon to Bolivar.
In due time the yacht arrived at
Bolivar, and Medworth, seeing no SOL
diers of Philip near, made bold to re-
quest to be sent ashore that he might
make inquiries concerning Castle SAL
varez, and also put in a few sly ques-
tions to see if Jack Tempest was any,
where about.
The information he received on
shore fairly staggered him with q
mixed emotion-part joy, part grief
Everybody in Bolivar knew all about
the battle on Carib Hill, and Medworth
listened with beating heart to the
story of the supposed death of Lola
Garza, the crafty treachery of Namam-
pa, the meeting of Namampa and Lola
with Lord Chugmough on Carib Hill,
the subsequent attack by Mattazudo,
and the final misunderstanding which
resulted in the total annihilation Of
both wings of Philips army. He also
heard with sorrow of the heroism and
death Of his old comrade, and the joy
over the knowledge that Lola was
alive and we'll was tempered with
grief over the death of his loyal
friend.
