SENSIBLY ARRANGED.

Among the traditions Of old-time
courtship in New England the risks,
rivalries, schemings and Opponents
to be expected Of youthful impetuosi-
ty are not absent; but surely no other
region preserves SO many anecdotes Of
tranquil, unhurried and unfiurrled low
ers.
One recently related Of a trio Of ma
tives Of old Morley a century ago is
certainly an instance rather OF sense
than of sensibility.
Abiel came counting to Amanda:
neither was young. Amanda listened
politely when Abiel proposed, looked
him up and down, considered, and an
nounced, with considerate regret:
It'll have to be no, Abel; it REILLY
will. I'm sorry, but l can't make it
my duty to say otherwise, and It GER
tainly amt my pleasure. I'm salts
fed with a single life. But If you'll
take 1t in the spirit it's offered, I'll
give We piece Of advice. Try Peter
Forney's Abigail. She's better-looking

Abiel, gratefully accepting the adj
vice, proceeded at once to Abigail. who
justified Amanda's guess at her atti-
tude toward matrimony. She and he
were soon married, and in due time
Amanda came to call, and expressed
during her stay a warmer appreciation
Of the furnishings of the new home
than Abiel deemed in good taste. II
struck him as too nearly approaching
envy.

d." he announced, with reproachful
dignity, in the presence of his quits

Devices that Have Made Accidents
at Sea Almost Unknown.
In the presence of the fearful loss
of life in accidents on our railroads it
is with relief that we contemplate the
safety Of travel by sea.

which passenger travel is heavy meet

of life or limb to the passengers. The

Interfere seriously with this punctuali-
ty. The secret of this security is to
be found both In the structure of the

the navigator to guide him in the more
perilous phases Of his duty.

Among the cartoons which the sol.
dier artists Of the First Japanese Army
contributed to the decorations used in
celebrating the first anniversary of the
victory of the Yalu was a portrait Of
General Linevitch.
1t was done without lifting pencil
from paper. "One stroke is enough for

A WELCOME ILLNESS.

Little folk have tragedies as well as
real and heart-breaking. A correspond
ent of the Washington Post tells of
some Of her experiences with the
griefs Of childhood. She says that she
will never forget the day when, at the
age of twelve, she came home from a
long year at school.

illness and Inconsistencies by thinking
Of the happiness Of getting back to my

mother had given them all away.
was too old. she said. to care for dolls.
l suppose she never dreamed l could
care, any more than dreamed of the
ache in the heart of little niece Of
mine till she showed it to me not long
ago.
She is the elder Of two daughters.
The younger is rarely beautiful
child, who has always been delicate,
so that attentions have been showered
on her. The elder child, Julia, Is a
plain. sturdy little thing. who has al
ways given way without a word to
Margaret. the younger.
When went to visit the family last
fall Margaret was the center of at
traction. If she had a sore throat the
house was turned topsyturvy.
One day came upon Julia, sitting
by the kitchen stove, her teeth chatter
ing. She had never been Ill before. OF
course we put her to bed and hung
over her and made lot of her. The
child was really i'll.
Poor little thing" I said to her.
"Fm so sorry you're sickv'
She looked up at me with the oldest
look ever saw on child's face.
"Pm glad" she replied. They'll
all treat me now just the way they
do Margaret"
You may be sure we did. But think
how long her heart must have ached
to make her think Of saying that! We
can never make up to her for that.

Inc submarine signaling is a close
rival to the wireless telegraph in the
great increase that it has made in the
safety Of travel on the sea. One re-
ce1ver is placed on each side of the
ship, with separate wires from each.
and by the use Of telephones the off,
Ger is able to hear a bell that is being
struck at point many miles distant
from the ship and determine its direc-
ton. The officer Of the Kaiser VIII
helm der Crosse states that ON the last
trip over, when the ship was four
miles distant from the River Weser.
he plainly made out the signals con-
veyed from the lightship there. Fur
thermore, as the vessel neared Nan
tucket and when she was about four
miles distant from the lightship, he
heard through the telephone the signal
49, This consists Of six strokes of
the bell. a pause and then six more
strokes of the bell, which is the Nam
tucket lightship code signal. At about
the same distance from Sandy Hook
lightship the respective signals were
distinctly audible. The value of this
device in preventing collisions be-
tween approaching slips is evident
for 1t has this advantage over the fog
horn, that the direction of the ap-
vessel, whether from port or
starbcard, is determined at once by the
fact that the sounds are audible to the
port or starboard telephone.

There's no use attempting to dis
g,iise the fact that I'm growing old"

said it plaintively.
You don't look it" said his friend,
consolingly.
Il may not on casual inspection,
yet l can look in my glass and detect
wrinkles around my eyes that I'm

to think that I've got to get older in
stead Of younger"
I'VE don't any of us grow younger"
said the friend. "But I should say
your appearance, in spite Of your low
spirits, is decidedly youthful"
Its kind Of you to insist upon it. I
admit that my teeth are still good
enough to masticate my food, but
there are certain signs that are unmis-
taxable. l am losing my taste for
