II do not think we need another

A simple request, but It brought
Mary back from heaven and down to

lovers caress? It would all be too
premeditated, while Mary, in spite OF
her greatness" was only a woman
craving the weakness and sentiment
of her sex.
Disillusioned, Mary, instead of kiss
ing her lover, burst into tears and fled
up the stairs, her castle tumbling
about her ears.
In the end she married the black
smith. There was no "long or short"
about it, as she was careful 70 inform

at least he was "big enough" to do 1t.

Where Glory Waits Thee.

Go where glory waits thee,

Oh! still remember me.
When the praise thou meetest

And when joys are dearest.

OH then remember me-.

Bright we've seen it burning;
Oh! thus remember me.
OFT as summer closes,
When thine eye reposes
On its lingering roses,
Once so loved by thee,
Think of her who wove them,
Oh! then remember me.
When, around thee dying.
Autumn leaves are lying,
Oh! then remember me.
And, at night, when gazing
On the gay hearth blazing,
OH still remember me.

All the soul of feeling,
To thy heart appealing,
Draw one tear from thee;
Then let memory bring thee

NOTICE OF LIS PENDENS.
Why Women Have not EquaIIed Men

Not long ago Ella Wheeler Wilcox
made the statement: cit is an in
controvertible fact that we have no
Angelo, no woman Mozart, and that
even as dress-makers and cooks men
woman Shakespeare no woman Michael
lead the world"
It has always been the custom to
consider the boy of the family as the
one worthy of education and con
sideration. What a rejoicing when a
boy was born. If a boy possessed
any talent it was considered worthy
of education to the point of perfecting
himself in it. If a girl possessed any
talent it was considered of little use
only as she might some time become
a mother and transmit it to a boy.
If a man chose to do dress-making or
anything else it became his profession
and he perfected himself in it. But
if a woman did the same thing it was
not deemed of as great importance
and she was not given equal oppor-
tunities to perfect herself in it.
Women have accounted it a virtue
to make sacrifices for their male
relatives. Instead of a virtue it's a
crime. Not long ago l heard a young
woman telling how hard she had been
and was working to help earn money
to keep her brother in College, how
how she had economical and made
every sacrifice for him. She did not
have a College education, nor did she
expect to have, and she possessed
quite as much natural ability az did
he. With all the progress women
have made it is still a common &C.
curance for a sister to go without that
a brother may have advantages
superior to hers. A double injury
is thus done. The brother is made
to be selfish, and she cripples and
dwarfs her own development. When
women are given the same opportuni-
ties the men Will not lead in any line.
The time is, nearing when there may
not be a woman Shakespeare, nor
Mozart, nor Michel Angelo, but there
will be women superior to all of the
men of the past.

REMARKABLE FEAT OF MEMORY
Children Learn and Recite Thousands
of Bible Verses.

The pastor of a church in a Jersey
town wished to stimulate the memo
ries of the children in his Sunday
school. To this end he offered two
prizes, the first to pupils owe and
the other to pupils under twelve who
during an interval of three months
would learn to recite the greatest
number of verses from the Bible. A
committee was appointed to hear the
contestants for the prize and register
the number of verses memorized.
The first prize was taken by a
young girl of sixteen who had COM
mitted to memory during this interval
of ninety days 1926 verses of Scrip
ture. These passages covered the en-
tire New Testament with the excep-
ton of two genealogies and included
liberal selections from Psalms, Gene
sis and other parts of the Old Tesla
ment. The winner of the second prize
was a little sister of the other prize
winner, a child of eleven years. She
had learned 715 verses. During the
contest some 10000 verses were mem
OriZed.

Phenomena Of Lightning.

All the phenomena Of lighting and
all it's forms are determined, doubt
less, by the kind and amount Of resis-
lance it encounters. Its light is due
to the resistance of the atmosphere.
Its noisy and often terrifying but
quite harmless, accompaniment of
thunder, is due to the sudden separ.
alton and reunion Of bodies of air
from sudden heating and cooling, and
perhaps in part to the explosion OF
gases into which watery vapor is de-
composed by the intense heat of cleo
trical flashes, the result OF such ex-
plosion being their recombination in
the proportions OF water.

japanese plums have become
quite popular in some sections
of the country where they do
we'll. They do not, however, thrive
in the Northwest, and readers of the
Farmers Review living in Northern
Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota will
generally make a mistake if they try
to gro them. We say generally"
for the reason that here and there are
situations in which the plums do fairly
well. South of the Great Lakes and
enthusiastically they do well. They
do not seem to be adapted to cold, dry
winters.
