tween the dormer window and the old
chest, gushed up the fountain, shining
in the sun Of afternoon. And there,
too, stood the charming little maid
who was taking the pretty role, and
as she saw the fair water, and with
mock alarm as she saw, from out the
wilderness of boxes, that young prince
coming TO claim her.
The pretty play was just over, when
I heard Mary coming up the stars
with the tray of tea and tarts. No
sooner was she there than Lisa, who
can coax bewitchingly, begged that
we have tea down in my room, where
there are half-dozen deep window
seats-for the JOY of dreams and
tales.

Peleas and 1 stayed behind, and as
the cloud of Lisa's friends went in
soft laughter down the attic stairs
we turned, and fancied that the fairy
tale had come true before our eyes,
Between the dormer window and
the ancient chest the fountain was
still sparkling to the sun, as it had
sparkled when the little mock princess
had found her lover by its side And
where she had stood, Mary stood now;

was in his hand.

Importance of Sleep.

We should get up well every morn
ing. If we do not, we are certain
gradually to run behind in our physi-
cal bank account. This proves that
sleeping is quite as important as eat
ing. The luxury of sound sleep is one
of the greatest means given to a man
or beast for restoring and invigorating
the whole system. No one should al
low business or anything else to cur
tail this luxury, and parents should
promote it in children, instead Of
drumming them out of bed early

FOR SITE OF BUILDING.
Chamber of Commerce to Consider
Proposals at Meeting Tonight

1t is officially announced that the SUBJ
committee of the building committee Of the
Chamber of Commerce will make a report
to the board of directors at a meeting to
be held this afternoon at O clock at Gude's
Hall, respecting its inquiry for a suitable
site for the home of the organization. This
report will be acted upon at open meet
ing to be held by the Chamber of Com
merce this evening at s o'clock, at the
Arlington Hotel. 1t is matter Of current
gossip that the location most favored is on
H street between 18th and 14th, opposite the
Halls of the Ancients.
While this Is said to be the place most
favored. 1t is known that the committee has
viewed favorably the property at the cor
ner of 18th and G streets at 18th and F
streets, and that at 1410 G street, which is
the site of the Ames building. All these
will be mentioned in the report to be made
to the directors this afternoon.
The task of choosing a place on which to
build the new 100000 building is one on
which the committee has labored hard and
faithfully, and during its deliberations
scores of sites have been considered.
In addition to the other meetings, Capt
Oysters committee membership will
hold a meeting this afternoon to act upon
twelve applications for membership and
the report will be submitted at the open
meeting tonight. 1t Is anticipated that
there will be at least seventy names to be
acted upon, bringing the total membership
up to about 900.

USE OF SUBMARINE BELLS
Light Stations to Be Equipped With
Safety Device,


The use of submarine bells as safety
device at the light stations along the At
lantic coast is rapidly growing, and it is
only a question of short time, 1t is be-
l!eved, before practically every lightship
on the coast will be so equipped. There
are now three submarine bells In service
at the mouth of the Chesapeake, all Of
which have been installed within the past
year, and the work done by the new signal
is said to be eminently satisfactory.
The first has been placed on Winter
Quarter shoal light vessel, No. 45. moored
in seventy-eight feet of water about three
and a quarter miles southeastward from
Winter Quarter shoal and about nine miles
foggy weather 1t will sound the number Of
the vessel, "45," at regular intervals, thus:
Four strokes interval of three seconds;
five strokes, interval of five seconds
Tail of the Horseshoe light vessel, No. 46,
moored in thirty-three feet of water inside
the entrance to Chesapeake bay, and dur
ing foggy weather will sound the number
six, separated by intervals ol three anu
half seconds.
=. The third has been placed upon the Cape
Charles light vessel, No. AZ, moored IN
forty-nine feet of water OF Smith Island,
on the northern side of the entrance TO
Chesapeake bay. 1t will sound the num-
ber of the vessel. ~.
It is stated that the water will convey
the sound Of these beels mucn farther than
the air. and that they give prompt warm
ing to approaching vessels of their near
ness to the dangerous shoals. The bells
are struck by machinery and the number
of strokes indicates to the mariner the 10
cation of his vessel when he Is surrounded
by thick fog.
The experiments with the submarine Sig
nal were tried in the Potomac about three
years ago, a small steam yacht which mad
been equipped with the apparatus having
come here from Boston to demonstrate the
practicability Of the new safety device.

UNITY OF CHRISTIAN WORK.
Conference Of Workers at the Home
ward Bound Mission.


The unity of Christian mission work in
the District of Columbia was considered at
a conference of workers held at the Home
ward Bound Mission yesterday. at which
Capt Theodore Valiant presided. The
statement was made that it Is not pro-
posed to consolidate the missions them
selves but to work in unison for the bet
terment of the people Of Washington. 1t
was the opinion of Capt. Valiant that there
should not be any division of sentiment or
effort in the work Il turning men and
women from their sinful lives and making
them good Christian citizens.
I'VE do not hesitate to pronounce against
bigotry in all its FORMS" Evangelist VAL
liant said. 1.-The bigot is an egotist who
regards his own views in matters of faith
and religion as unquestionably right. and
any opinion or belief opposed to or differ
ing from his as unreasonable and wicked.
He is intolerant OF any creed or doctrine
that he does not indorse. We believe all
divisions in the Christian Church had their
origin In sin-that is, In bitter disagree
ment In which one side or the other, or
both, were in the wrong.
Sometimes inOrdinate ambition for
leadership becomes the basis for new
se-t. Sometimes the oppression of the mi
nority by the majority caused division
and the organization of new denomina-
ton. Sometimes a church became cor
rupt, so that the pious and godly are forceu
into new organizations to maintain their
fl, el'v and propagate successfully the doc
trines of pure religion. Sometimes 1t Is
politics that caused a division; sometimes
an institution maintained in one section
and denounced in another. Certain it is
that all sects had their origin in some
kind Of unchristian temper"
In conclusion the speaker urged church
unity in the work of making the world
better by christianizing humanity, and de-
clared that missions should take the in
itiative in the great work of laboring in
harmony and unity. Mrs. Haslam. COM
mander of the Homeward Bound Mission,
is said to be taking much interest in this
movement.
