wood and graphic picture it gives us of
ourselves as seen In the guise of people
in the days Of knighth0od.
The Gentle Robber has always been Il
universal and virile family with lineal
blood descendants handing down its her
itage from the days of Adam. Mar
garet SheFwood's "Gentle Robber" stole
from yeoman, squire, knight, merchant,
widow and orphan and gave to the
church and state, and to that universally
yawning receptacle. of tainted money!

the tragic failure of the crusader To
arouse the people against their enemy,
and the more than tragic ending Of his
own life sacrifice to the power OF corr
|ruption, is pathetic but 50 vitality true.
The Cultivation of Cordial Nature.
The cultivation Of cordiality and popu-
larity early in life will have a great
deal to do with ones advancement, COM
fort and happiness.
1t is a notifying thing to have a
kindly feeling in the depths of ones
heart, and yet not be able to express it,
to repel people when one has just tina
opposite feeling toward them. TO be
incased in an icy exterior with really
warm heart is a most unfortunate thing.
Some people have a repelling express
sion in their faces and manner which Is
constant embarrassment to them; but
they do not seem able TO overcome it.
This is largely due to lack Of early
training, or to the fact that sometimes
these people have been reared in the
country, away from the great centers of
civilization, where they do not have the
advantages Of social intercourse, and in
consequence become cold and appear i'm
sympathetic when they are really the
opposite.
it is a very difficult thing to overcome
these handicaps; but the cultivation of
good win, OF q helpful spirit and kindly
feeling toward everybody win 60 fa-
to open up the hard interior so that tho
soul can express itself-O. S. Marden in

The Modernlty Of Trousers.

It will assuredly seem more than
strange that within the last hundred
years the wearing Of trousers has
been regarded ever as i~rreligious. The
fact that in October, 1912, an order
was made by St. Johns and Trinity
Colleges that every young man who
appeared in hall Or chapel In panta-
looms or trousers should be considered
as Dissent is startling enough; but 1t
would appear that eight years later
the founders of Bethel chapel at Shelf
field inserted a clause In the trust
deed ordaining the under no circum-
stances whatever shall any preacher
be allowed to occupy the pulpit who
wears trousers" This Is striking. but
It is even more impressive to find that
the Rev. Hugh Bourne, n OF the
two founders Of the Primitive Metho-
dist Connection, said OF his co-found'
or. That trousers-wear1ng, beer-drink'
ing Cloves will go to heaven"
And it would need a student Of the
Brooches Bible to say precisely whe
this assumed connection between
theology and trousers began anc

Of the unusual attractions near this

oranges floating on the oceans sur.

golden hue to the sea.
There WIS wonder for some time
as to how the oranges got into the

they came from washed out orchards

to the high storm waters in the riv.
er. This Is not the case, however.
Tue oeangel were deliberately thrown

1t is no uncommon sight to see rab'
bits in pairs playing about the streets
and instead of running away at sighi
of persons approaching, they simply
scramper through a fence or take ref
uge behind a tree, where they seem
as much at home and secure as if they
were in their burrows. Another feat
