Truly Admirable.

An Illinois politician, who once de-
livered what seemed to him an excel
lent and striking speech on the trust
question, was most anxious to ascer-
tain its effect upon the Democratic
part of his audience, these for the
most part being Irish
Was the speech to your liking,
Pat?" he asked an old friend in the
audience.
Sure, it were a grand speech!"
averred Pat, in tone of such sincere
admiration that the politician felt
moved to investigate further
Was there any part of it more than
another that seemed to hold you?"
the speaker asked.
We'll, now that ye ask me, I'll tell
ye," responded the Celt. What took
me most, sir, was yere perseverance
the way We wint over the same thing
agin and agin. "-Harper's Weekly.

His One Yarn.

Four men who at one time or an
other had enjoyed the hospitality of
one Canadian camp were talking
around an open fire in a club the
other night about the taciturnity of
the average Canadian guide. The ex-
perience meeting had been opened by
one man who had been telling of two
days he spent with a native woodman
in pursuit of moose and who in all
that time had only spoken once, and
then he dropped the undeniable fact
that their way through the forest was
a damned bad trail"
That's what I like about Jim Nc
Donald" interjected one of the listen
ers. You remember Jim?" The others
allowed" they did right well Now,
he tells you the kind of stories | like
to hear when | am in the woods. The
last time I was up to the governors s
camp he told me bully yarn about
being caught out on the lake one even
ing last winter without even a knife,
and he got the best of three"
"Five-four-six," broke in the lis
teners. And they all grinned. 1t
seems Jim had told each one the tale,
embroidering on facts in the story
and increasing the number of wolves
that had pursued him with each re-
cital.
We'll" remarked the man who had
started to tell the yarn, I'm no ma
ture student, and l don't care about
the mere detail of facts. When I'm
in the woods | like to hear my guide
talk, even if he is harmless liar"

COSTLY WELLS A NECESSITY.
Have Become Indispensable Part of
Smart Woman's Apparel.

More and more are wells becoming
a feature of the smartly clad wom-
ans hat, but they are not a joy for
ever; in fact, they are about as ex-
pensive as any detail of the feminine
toilet, inasmuch as a cheap bit of
gauze or net will not in the least an
swer the purpose. The veil must al
ways be absolutely fresh, and usually
matches the color scheme of the hat,
unless white trimmings are used on it,
in which case it is better to have it of
that color as it is more becoming to
the complexion.
Flaring brimmed hats, set well back
from the brow, are the fancy of the
tailor-made maid, even for shopping.
The shapes are not eXtravagantly
large, and are usually in dark felt or
beaver. But to be effective and also
becoming, the brims should be faced
or bound with dark velvet or satin
sometimes edged with a white silk
cord. A highly picturesque effect is
gained with coque feathers instead of
the more perishable and costly ostrich
tips, which are out of place with run
about costumes.

ly. Il shall stay until the children

And Ruth started upstairs with the
sleepy twins.
Harvey Wilmot had never ex-
changed more than the merest COM

because she had always appeared in
different to him, and that she was
usually overshadowed by her more
beautiful cousin, but as he walked
away, he experienced a strange feel

thought how sweet she looked presid-

Through the open window curtains
OF Honora's home he saw that young

BY NAME. UNKNOWN
IMPORTANCE OF ANONYMOUS UT.
TERANCES IN HISTORY.
Scriptures Full of instances in Which
the Words of Nameless Speakers
Were Most Fateful-Incident
of the "Young Ruler"

In the course of reading one is often
struck by the important part played
by anonymous voices throughout his
tory. The Scriptures are full of in
stances in which the words of name
less speakers have become historic.
Who made thee a prince and q Judge
over us? intendest thou to kill me, as
thou killedst the Egyptian ?'-words
few, and their speaker unknown; but
they drove Moses into the desert, an
exile for 40 years. Saul hath slain
his thousands, and David his ten thou
sands" sang the Hebrew maidens in
their rejoicing over the death of Co
Hath, and we know what fateful words
they proved to the hero they were
meant to honor. We remember the
breathless arrival of Jobs servants in
sad fourfold succession, each with his
tale of woe no sooner delivered than
outdone by that of the next conner,
and how each ended with the piercing
refrain: "And | only am escaped alone
to tell thee Jobs wife, that eastern
Lady Macbeth, Kisses out her diaboli-
wi ihSLi LiSo''IiVL' IDOoL IlIOu Dtlli l'lfllil
thine integrity? Curse God, and die"
Certain Chaldeans pillory themselves
and glorify three Jews for all time by
their sycophantic tale-telling: These
men, oh, king, have not regarded thee;
they serve not thy gods, nor worship
the golden image which thou has set
up" And others perform the same
office for that Daniel which was "of
the children of the captivity of Ju-
dah," to his great honor and their own
undoing. Returning with slow steps
and with awed and wondering looks
come the men set to catch Jesus in
His words, framing as the pass their
more than sufficient excuse: Never
man spake like this man" The young
ruler runs with this eager inquiry to
the Master, and goes away sorrowful,
making the great refusal. The woman
of Samaria, with her keen questioning,
draws from Christ the glorious truth
that God is a Spirit and they that
worship Him must worship Him in
spirit and in truth" AS speaker of an
all too memorable sentence. there is
the pert servant maid who with a
word cowed Peter and made him sin
the sin of his life.

UP TREE TO ESCAPE TleREss.
Unexpected Meeting on Jungle Path

| was patrolling the jungle paths

in the Madras Mail. | coughed pretty

just hauled him up when a fine tigress
emerged from the Jungle followed by
two small cubs.
She passed under our tree and
sauntered into the thicket, but reap
peared few minutes later, without
the cubs, and remained watching us
for some time, apparently considering
if it was worth while to claw us off
our perches. After some embarrass-
ing moments productive of the bluest
of funks she disappeared, and my jem-
adar, who had been dumb while the
interview lasted found his voice and
gave tongue to the most agonizing yells
to the rest of our party, who were
close behind, to come to our assist.

No one, however, appeared, and it
is well they did not, as the tigress
would probably have attacked them.
After remaining in the tree for an
hour or so we descended and saw no
more of our unwelcome visitor.

He Meant MuciIaue.

In an Office building of Philadelphia
there is installed young Englishman
who is endeavoring to establish him
self as an architect. His room adjoins
those of a prominent real estate deal
err who from the first evinced a
friendly and neighborly interest in
the young Briton.
"Any time | can help you" suggest
ed the Philadelphian when the for
eigner first took up his quarters in
the building, Il shall be glad to do
so"
Not long ago the real estate man
engaged a new stenographer, pretty
girl, but with rather an exaggerated
pompadour and an extremely naughty
manner.
One morning, the Englishman hav-
ing occasion to avail himself of the
kind offer referred to, entered the of
fee somewhat precipitately, when he
was brought to a sudden halt by the
frigid air of the new stenographer.
Il beg your pardon" hesitatingly
began the architect, taken back by the
sight of new face, "but could you
spare me little of your gum?"

stenographer, you don't know"

Ruth said she intended calling there,
but she has been out all afternoon,
and | suppose, changed her mind"
There was a hint of sternness in
DR.. Wilmots voice:
Il am just from Mrs. Martin. She
is very much better Miss Joslin has
been there all afternoon and desired
me to tell you not to expect her home
till later"
Honora shook her dead disapprov-
ingly.
That is just like Ruth. She re-
fused to go with me this morning. She
will never learn to do things like
other people. | am glad your patient
is improved, and that you gave me
the opportunity to call upon her this
morning"
For week Ruth held her self-im-
posed post of duty, vastly to the Mar
tin family's comfort and Harvey Will
mot's admiration.
Then, when a strong-handed, kindly
Dorcas came from the city, the girl
still kept up her cheering visits to the
invalid.
1t was warm June evening. long
after the young doctor and Ruth had
ceased their professional visits" that
the pair met at the Martin home. This
was one of several pleasant evenings
that they had spent with the family.
AS they were leaving together, Mrs.
Martin said, laughingly:
Harvey, | have always thought that
Ruth should have been given half the
honor of my restoration to health"

into a verbal acceptance of the half

once out doors, it's spell kept the
couple quiet, for nothing was said at

Then suddenly the slender fingers
resting on DR.. Wilmot's coat sleeve
were covered closely with his right
hand, and then he began to talk earn
estly.
They walked slower and slower, un.
| til they were inside Ruths gate. and
then, screened by a friendly syringa
bush, they stopped altogether and
their voices ceased
Honora, from her hammock under
the ivy canopy, saw the two figures
apparently merge into one, and owe,
the shoulder of Ruth's white dress she
could define a black-clad manly arm.
Realizing for the first time that her
well-built plans had tumbled to earth,
she arose and swept majestically into
the house, indignation in the very rus
tie of her garments.
But the pair under the syringa bush
were so absorbed in each other that
the Indignation was forever lost on
them

colors or white and are nice when
used with spriggcd or embroidered

There are also new belts of fiowered

pearl buckles. The newest flowered
ribbon has Is lattice work pattern
over which the flowers Chamber Then
there are !alae wreaths of flowers

these belts there are knots of the same
ribbon to go under the turnover col

knots are made like a small jabot,
