country is so disturbed that she was
afraid to put 1t into q bank

A few hours later Betty. who had
hidden herself near the clay bank saw
Cousin Benedict stealthily going into
the back garden inc replace five hum
dred pounds in the hole In the bank
under the pear tree. from which no
had taken it. This vas just what
Betty a expected he would do. She
had discovered that the o had
been stolen and she suspected Cousin
Benedict: She Immediately calculated
that. If he saw a chance to steal an
other five hundred pounds. he would
replace the first sum, so that 1t might
not be missed when the additional
money was placed there. Then he could
steal 1t all at the first convenient on
portunity.
You may assure yourself It was mot

And tenderer shine all mothers eyes.

Richmond Re-unlon. ContYnued.

The Sabbath afternoon was gwen to beautiful Memorial Servoce to the tion several hundred of Richmond's Monumental Church-built many years ago in memory of the greatest tragedy that had befallen the city. On that spot had stood a great theatre; 1t was burned, carrying to death and destruc- tion seyxeral hundred of Richmond's best citizens. young and old. men and women. A fitting spot for the South's remembrance of her deadT t.
 Monday dawned. and Richmond was the South's exquisite jewel, set in the South's own unalloyed golden sunahine!
 Once more the red and white stream CTS Haunted. banners draped the pa- latial homes, the great hotels. the business blocks and hung In triumphal emblazonment across the great thoro- fares.
 June 3 1907 was destined to see the greatest throng of people In Richmond since the memorable days of 1865.
 At very early hour the veterans be- gan to assemble for the greatest event of that most important reunion they had ever held. the unveiIing of a monument to The Southern Confederacy and It's President. They. tho South's s citizen soldiery, had criticised Davis, the war according to his plans. had sorrowed for his Imprisonment. had wept at his bier. Now they had as- sembled to write the last chapter of the most heroic struggle the world had ever seen. It had been written in bronze and lasting stone. for all succeeding America to read. After lifetime of ef. fort to re-establish their devastated country. they had come to the point in their rebuilding where people always arrived fin classic history--where cul- ture and intelligent patriotism aTways fohnd expression of soul in sculpture!
 So Richmonds streets were thronged and happy people greeted each other. though strangers, were they not all Southerners?
 Then commands began to assemble at appointed rendezvous. The "Sons'' ral- lied at the gate of the Capitol near the Richmond hotel, so on, up Grace Street to the Murphy hotel on Broad; here the Armory and other buildings were head quarters for the leaders. So on, up the line of march to the beautiful boulevard Franklin Street; every possible space was occupied by veterans, sight seers. sponsors and maids, and those most noble women whose heroic efforts
