HE SAVED HER LIFE.

List to the story | now will tell,
OF an adventure grave which this
morn befell,
A girl of the city, a reigning belle
Who would've been killed but for
a young man swell.
p. S.-(There won't be no names
in these yerses.)
A team of horses; frightened, quite,
And started down the street going
all rneir might.
As the girl and her beau hove in
sight
The spectacle gave both quite a
fright.
Il am sure, dear, we can cross the
street,
Without getting hurt by the
horses feet.
But the maid held back in anguish
sweet,
The young man carried her off her
feet.
They got half way across, then saw
too late
or they stood stilD they'd meet
terrible fate;
The young man saved her for he
speeded his gait,
The sight thrilled all. for it was
great.
Yes, he was hero. for had he fell
There amt no tellin'; he might as
well,
They'd both been crushed like a
cookie shell
Meath the feet of the horses run
min like -
IN. B.-U couldn't find any other
word to rhyme with shell.)
SO he was hero, appointed by fate,
For. il he'd waited a moment too
late:
They would both have been killed in
anguish great,
But he took her through safe with
his ambling gait.

The copper producers have con-

producers have not asked anybody

MES in the country, under wage
schedules such as have prevailed in
the last few years and with the far
greater cost of supplies of all kinds

with profit under IA or 10 cents.
This camp is an exception, the most
notable in the country inasmuch as
its natural advantages, enabling eco
monte mining, and its great reduction
works, planned to handle enormous
quantities of ore daily at the mini
mum of cost and the maximum of
saving, will enable it to go below

'If they have, they don't often use it,
retorted Billy, and that assertion set Bee to
thinking.
She was quicker at her lessons than Billy;
she ridiculed him Numerically at times; but
Billy pulled his fur cap down over his ears
in cold weather. while Bee depended on her
collar for warmth.
Billy wore thick shoes that did not require

what Miss Gleason is trying to teach us--to

It was not an easy lesson to learn. not half

you have the rhyming talent to an irrepressl-

Lucy had a neat little essay on flowers.
Lucys essays were nearly always sabout the
Beauties Of Nature" or Goodness" or
Sympathy" or something of that kind
The girls said that she wrote them over so
often that she knew them by heart, and she
always had pet phrases which she rang into
them all; so now Bee grimaced at Dell, while
Lucy mincingly declared that ''fowers were
the best gift benefcent Creator had bestow-
ed upon mankind"
A stubby hand went up on the boys side,
as Lucy sat down.
"Please, Miss Gleason, think she'd ought
to have said, 'fours the best gift We could
live without poses, but We couldn't live
without bread
"Lucy is a little flowery in her expressions, -
said Miss Gleason with a nod to Bee
There was dimple of mischief in the girls

"Billy Barwell took the ink,

Dashed in wildly, faltered stopped

Tried again-no fear of failure
Hang the pen! Say. what does all yer?'
! Got it going, made blot
In despair, when came a thought,
| IF boys no gift to think,
He'll not find it in the ink"
Billy Barwel was grinning sheepishly, anc
wishing that he had found so good an ex
preston as result of his labor.
SIT is often happy gift to see the humor
GUS side of things; but we must not let sense
of the ridiculous lead us from accuracy. o.
course, it is by poetic license that Beatrice
refers to Billy's use of the ink. And. again

Lucy held up her head with little con

of the others.
Bee gave nod of approval to Berta, Will,

There was a futter of excitement all over
the schoolroom. Chances of surprise and con-
sternation were exchanged. Blank wonder or
blank despair settled on at least one-halt OF

in a moment the clear ting a-ling of the bell
announced the time to begin.
Out of the sixty pupils In the room, not
more than six put their pencils to the paper
on the instant.
Some dawdled carelessly some knit their
brows in reflection, some looked about them
for inspiration. In one of the back corners
of the room were four glris-chums-W sat
at neighboring desks, and it CHANGED that the
teachers eye rested on this group, as she gave
the signal.
One pair of blue eyes met hers with flash
of comprehension, but the hand was set hes
itatingly at its task. Words did not come
very readily to Berta Marsden. Lucy Ward
had her head bent, and was smiling conf

1t came, apparently with the sight Of a
boy who was half-ying across his desk, his
tongue thrust into his cheek, and scowl OF
intense earnestness distorting his features, as
his slow heavy hand scrawled laboriously
across the page.
Bees pencil moved quickly when she once
started it; and her Cousin Dell, who sat di
rectly back of her and was making great
pretense of being very busy, though she had
not written word, peeped slyly at Bees
fying fingers, and said to herself:
ooh poetry! I just thought so; and l dc
believe it is easier than prose.
And then Dell, who always initiated Bee
fell to work; but the bell rang while she was
struggling with her first rhyme, and she fran
ticaily dashed in the last few words.
She had never known before what very
short time ten minutes was. Tt did not ado
to her composure to be the first of the foul
called upon to read her production.
.T hadn't time to finish it up right" she
apologized, then read:
"Some people have brains that work quickly
And others are terribly slow;

Somehow it sounded very silly. even tc

"Berta is the only one who has caught the

walked home together.

"But it has been melting since | am afraid

But Lucy was already walking rapidly to-
ward the ice, and. after a moment of hesita-
ton, Berta followed her.
"What could I do if she should break in ?"
she asked herself "There is no one near
enough to help. Oh. Lucy, here-here!"
She tore the long boa from her neck, and
flung the end of it out over the ice to the
spot where it had given way suddenly and
plunged Lucy into the water.
Her white, terrified face was just disappear

aid thus promptly extended, and Berta, hold

the force of her girlish lungs.
Her cries brought Billy Barwell flying to
the rescue.
Billy had gone out of his way to chase a
squirrel along the fence and track rabbit
into stone-heap, and he had the stick in his
hand with which he had been prodding the
latter.
"Give me hold, so can help you pull her
out" he gasped.
"The boa isn't strong enough. If you could
get plank or rail-but there are none near.
Oh. see, then, if you can break the ice!"
And Billy, with his tough stick, did break
it piece by piece, reaching out cautiously from
his place near the edge and Lucy was drawn
into the lane thus made till they could seize
