A WONDERFUL PIGEON.

One day carrier-pigeon tapped at the
window OF Mrs. Nansen's home in Chris
tiania. Instantly the window was opened,
and the wife OF the famous arctic ex-
plorer in another moment covered a lit
tie messenger with KISSES and caresses.
The carrier-pigeon had been away from
the cottage thirty long months. but had
not forgotten the way home. 1t brought
a note from Nansen. stating that all was
going well with his expedition in the
polar regions.
Nansen had fastened a message TO the
bird and turned ii loose.
The frail courier darted out into the
blzzardly air, flew like an arrow over
perhaps a thousand miles OF frozen waste,
and then over another thousand miles OF
ocean and plains and forests, TO enter the
window of it's waiting mistress and de-
liver the message which she had been
awaiting so anxiously.
We boast OF human pluck, sagacity, and
endurance; but this loving carrier-pigeon,
after an abesnce of thirty months, ac-
complished a feat so wonderful that we
can only give ourselves up TO amaze
ment and admiration.--From Nansen's
Arctic Explorations"

THE EFFECT OF A HINT.

While the proposition to build monster battle
ship under discussion during the last session
of congress it was pointed out that no country i'll
the world is in so good position as the United
States TO set an example in disarmament.
This nation is secure from attack 1t is rich,
popuous, with unbounded resources and enjoys
the friendship OF all the powers. Obviously if thus
fortunately circumstanced this republic continues
TO press forward in the contest for naval supremacy
il will be useless 10 hope that European nations
will sacken their pace.
In a measure the argument in favor OF setting
the world an example in moderation success
ful. The grant OF money for the biggest battle
ship was hedged about with conditions that pre-
vent the immediate beginning of the work OF con-
struction.
Before that can be done plans for the monster
fighter must be presented to congress for final
authorization. OF course this is not very definite
condition, but in connection with the sentiments
expressed during the debate in the house of repre-
sentatives it showed revulsion OF feeling in this
country against the policy of engaging in a contest
OF navy building
The result is already apparent, for in the
British cabinet division OF opinion is revealed on
the question of building third monster fighting
machine of the Dreadnaught type The sentiment
OF majority of the ministry is distinctly opposed
to the building of such warship at this time at
least.
compromise may be effected or a serious
breach in the cabinet may result but whatever
the outcome, it is wholly probable the construction
OF third Dreadnaught would have been authorized
without opposition of any kind if this country had
shown a disposition to press forward and had
entered without hesitation on such a policy OF
navy building
Thus even hint has been taken as a good
example. What would unequivocal declaration
in favor of disarmament accomplish

REAL RELIGION.

People sometimes speak OF religion as
III, apart from any question OF its truth.
II was SO comforting that a man would.
be wise to accept II whether IL is true or
not. Religion is not an easy method OF
finding comfort: II Is not a spiritual lux
ury which no sensible man Will be with
out. 1t Is spiritual life. and, like all lie,
II means more work than pleasure more
giving than graining, more effort than
ease. Pessimism Is a lazy feeling, the
resort of a man who wants TO be done
with effort. 1t poses sometimes as n
brave, unshrinkng contemplation OF stern
facts. 1t really means giving up the
whole problem OF good as hopeless.
No great ideals are worth fighting for,
no misery Is worth troubling about no
deep religious faith Is worth seeking af-
ter. We are living In a bad, unmeaning
world, and the only comfort is in looking
down on II and being thankful that we
are no worse. But religion is for men
OF energy, for men OF war, for men OF
intense vitality. IL is the heroic affirma-
ton of faith that will not yield. 1t
struggles against evil not only in the
moral, but In the intellectual world.
Neither my conduct nor my conceptions
shall be conquered by IT, the man Of vital
faith Will say.--Henry Cow.
