so He Could Sleep.

A guest at one Of Kansas City's
large hotels surprised the key clerk
Tuesday night by stepping up to the
desk at 10 o'clock and saying: II am
going to bed now. Please call me at
midnight"
The clerk couldn't understand why
the man wished to get up at that hour.
Going out tonight" he asked.

I'm always called In the morning at

the fact that I'm In strange bed
may keep me awake, so thought I'd
try to get to sleep through the call

Several times during the night Jean
and Pierre, singly or together, went
outside to reconnoitre, but the hours
passed without disturbance.
Once. while Jean was pacing up and
down beneath the bright stars with
the hounds for company, the sound
OF far-off VOLTS cry changed, as
would have the blast OF trumpet,
the current Of his thoughts.
Was II really coming, and SO near
as 1t seemed--the day for which he
had longed, holding for him the
chance of redeeming himself In the
estimation Of the Island Rose? And
were not events seeming to shape for
enabling him to fulfil the promise
made upon Elba--that he would erase
the stigma from the name of LATTE
In Louisiana?
A thrill Of hope made new life
spring within him, and, with an un.
voiced prayer, he lifted his wilful fact
to the heavens. from whence there
seemed to descend a strange peace.

Returning in an hours time, he was
coming up the path from the beach
when he heard unmistakable sounds
Of tumult, followed by the roar Of the
gun mounted upon pivot in front of
his own house, as a protection against
possible disturbances.
Pierre, Beluche and Dominique-You

Outsider Won Bride.
The houses were finished and fur
nished early in April, and Shaw, Pet
tingill and Ryder awaited anxiously
for the test. Each called on Miss
Strain and arranged to drive her to
what each hoped would be her new
home. Ryder was to call at ten a. m,
Shaw at two p. m. ard Pettingill at
Ave p. m.
They called. They grew impatient
They called again.
II was not until the next day that
they learned that Miss Strain had
gone to New York early In the morn
ing and married Give Stevenson, a
handsome young electrical engineer
just out Of scientific school. Then they
were angry. Also Benz. Strain was
angry. He was so angry he told the
young couple to shift for themselves
when they sought his blessing. and he
was angrier when Stevenson took him
at his word and departed with his
bride. And he grew still angrier when,
after waiting week, he discovered
that his daughter and his son-in-law
were keeping house in three rooms in
Flatbush.
He sought them. asked them to for
give him, and offered to buy anyone
of the three houses that Mrs Steven
son would select, but Stevenson told
him he could support his wife.
So the young couple are living in a
three room fiat, while the three
beautiful new homes constructed spe-
cially for honeymoons are vacant.

Brooklyn.-There are three new
beautiful houses in Brooklyn that
bear For Sale signs in their win
young architects who built these
houses, but who never go near them.
And in little three-room fiat in the
Flatbush district Mr.. and Mrs. Give
Stevenson are happy.
1t was for Mrs. Give Stevenson that
the three homes were built-or rather
for Miss Helen Strain. Or rather, to
be exact, one was built for Mrs. Hen
ry L. Ryder, another for Mrs. Noble
T. Shaw, and yet another for Mrs. NJ.
L. Pettingill. But then Mrs. Steven
son, Miss Strain. Mrs. Ryder, Mrs.
Shaw and Mrs. Pettingill are all the
same person. She was Miss Strain,
she became Mrs. Stevenson, and the
three architects who built the three
houses expected her to become Mrs.
Ryder, Mrs. Shaw and Mrs. Pettingill.

Miss Strain was beauty, and Mrs.
Stevenson Is beauty, and she would
have been beauty il she had become
Mrs. Ryder, Mrs. Shaw or Mrs. Pet
tingill And, being beauty, she was
spoiled, although a few months ago
dt would have been hard to convince
Stevenson, Ryder. Shaw or Pettingill
that she was spoiled-or anything else
than the personification of perfection
In femininity-and Stevenson still be-
lieves she is perfect. She is now %
years old, tall, ulender, graceful, and
as pretty as a girl may be.
She was the daughter of Benjamin
Strain-he signs 1t Benj.-who Is a

the girl was small. She was raised
by her father, assisted by housekeep-

pered, good natured, merry, lovable

by the experiences of Stevenson, Ry-

chad her own way all her life, she con

Cooperative Sermons.

Four Chicago clergyncn Of as
MANY different denominations, have
begun a unique plan by delivering
practically the same sermon. lhe
idea, which was suggested by DR..
Jenkin Lloyd Jones, is for the four
ministers to preach and study on a
cooperative basis during the next
four weeks. During the week the
ministers will meet one or more
times for the study of the selected
topic. The exchanges of views will
enable them to map out the sermon
for the following Sunday. The YER
biage OF the sermons will natural
" differ, but the essential thoughts
will be the same, and, being the pro-
duct of four earnest minds, will
possess a special interest for their
hearers.

In the High Sierras.

Coming down from the high
Sierras into the Yosemite valley
one passes from almost artic cold
to the warmth of the late spring,
and the difference in temperature
is easily traceable by the character
of the foliage. On the high peaks
no green thing Aourishes. Gradu-
ally stunted pines and tanaracks
appear, and still lower the maple
and laurel are just beginning to TN
fold their leaves, and then in a halt
a days journey the wild flowers
come. Hundreds and hundreds OF
them of all shapes and colors are
found here, and as you approach
the rim Of the wonderful Yosemite
the air is heavy laden with the
scent of the azaleas, and the trail
is lined with wild lilac, wild cherry
and dogwood-a perfect riot OF
Towering shrubbery.

The ReproOf.

During the French revolution a
priest rode in a tr1n1brel to the gull
lotine with two persons-one a
marquis, the other common thief.
As the cart jolted through the
crowded streets the citizens shouted
n1aledictions on its occupants.
"Down with you, beasts of the
aristocracy!"
The marquis smiled proudly, but
the criminal was vexed.

Then the priest touched his arm
gently, n1urmurlng:

BABIES IN HOLES.
Where Uganda Infants Rest While Their
Mothers Hoe

l have gone into field in Ugan-
da and there found one Of our wo-
men at work with hoe, writes
missionary sister in Donahoe's. I
asked her where her baby Maria
was, and she pointed to a spot at
some distance where the banana
trees were thick. | walked under
the shade, and in vain I sought the
infant. The mother was greatly
amused and urged me to search
further. assuring me that the little
one was not far away and was
fast asleep. I had to "give up, so
the mother took me by the hand and
led me to a bit Of bark cloth on the
ground. Under this rag was the
crown OF the baby's head, while the
body was in a hole deep enough
for the feet to rest on the ground.
To my surprise and eNpostulations
she said in her own language:
"This is good custom. When a
Uganda woman goes to hoe it is
not good for her baby to lie asleep
on the ground, as it might injure
itself by rolling, or, if it awoke, it
might crawl away. Therefore we
make a hole like this and line it with
soft, clean leaves and put Our baby
safely into it so that it can neither
crawl out nor roll away, and we
know exactly where to find it when
we come from the fields" She said
it as perfectly safe from wild beasts
because it was midday.

ET G. Their Little Jokes.

The other day, says Tit-Bits, a
counsel engaged in a case in which
property Of various descriptions
was involved. made a long and
rambling speech. referring to each
kind in turn.
His monotonous delivery had
sent nearly every one to sleep. when
he suddenly startled them all b.
abruptly changing his voice as he
exclaimed to the Judge:
My lord, I will now address my
self to the furniture.
you have been doing that for
some time, think, Mr.. Wells, re-
marked the Judge, sweetly, amid the
universal tittering.
Now, there was another Judge
who heard this anecdote and
thought OF storing it up for some
future occasion.
At the court, soon afterward, his
opportunity seemed to have arriv-
ed. He was trying case in which
the circumstances were somewhat
similar, but the property involved
was live stock.
In due course one of the counsel
said:
my lord, I will now address my
self to the donkey"
"You have been doing that for
some time," was the prompt re-
sponse, whereupon a regular roar
of laughter followed, which high
ly gratifed the judge, until its true
reason dawned on him.

kind hand is deaf and dumb. It may
be rough in flesh and blood. yet do the
work Of a soft heart and do it with
soft touch. But there IS no one thing
that loEe so much needs as a sweet
voice TO tell what it means and feels,
and it is hard to get and keep It in the
right tone One must start in youth
and be on the watch night and day. at
work and at play, to get and keep q
voice that shall speak at ali times the
thoughts Of kind heart. It Is often IN
youth that one gets voice or tone
that is sharp. and 1t sticks to him
through life and stirs up III will and
grief and falls like drop Of gall on
the sweets Of home. Watch It day by
day as a pearl of great price, for it will
be worth more to you in days to come
than the best pearl hid in the seas. A
