CHILD EvINcEp REAL HERoisM
Pathetlcaliy Brave In Hour That
Brings Terror to Us All.

A pathetic story Of a child's heroism
is told by a Dublin gentleman. Re-
Gently he proposed to drive with his
wife to the beautiful Glasnevin GENE
terry. Calling his son, bright little
boy, some four years old. he told him
to get ready to accompany them. The
child's countenance fell and the father
said
Don't you want to go. Willie?"
The little lip quivered, but the child
answered, Yes, papa, If you wish"
The child was strangely silent dur
ing the drive, and when the carriage
drove up to the entrance he chung to
his mothers side and looked up IN
her face with pathetic usefulness.
The party alighted and walked
among the graves and along the tree
Swallowed avenues, looking at the in
scriptions on the last resting-places of
the jewellers In the beautiful city OF
the dead. After an hour or 30 thus
spent. they returned to the carriage.
and the father lifted his little son to
his seat. The child looked surprised,
drew a breath OF relief and asked:
why. am I going back with your"
"Of course you are; why not?"

boys TO the cemetery they left them

Doctors Without Degrees.

There are three times three too
many doctors In the country" said a
victim. That means nine times too
many. But just think of the doctors
in Germany. Everybody that is not a
baron Is a doctor. In America we
have many thousands Of doctors with
out degrees, who are made doctors by
the public, and go through life with
out diplomas. Just as soon as young
man steps behind the counter In a
drug store to sell patent medicines
and soaps and tooth brushes, ETC., Al
three dollars a week, he is dubbed
doctor" The pharmacist back of tn
prescription counter is entitled (prob
ably to this epithet. but all the clerk
are doctors" Customers do not know

HOW THE PYRAMIDS WERE BUILT
Theory That Explains Expenditure Of
Time and Labor.

No one has been able TO decide how
the enormous stones In the pyramids
were handled; for. even allowing for
the vast army of men. some sort OF
mechanical continuance must have
been used.
One theory Is that as each course
of stone was laid sand embankment
was built around II with long, easy
slopes so that the stones for the next
course could be pushed on rollers
c4hd slid into place. without any actual
lifting. and so on. the pyramid being
In fact buried as fast as II was built.
until the top was reached, when the
stupendous job Of removing the sand
embankment was commenced.
This might account for the vast
army OF laborers used; for instance,
II Is said that In building the great
pyramid Of Cheops 100000 men were
employed for 80 years, although the
quarry from which the stone was OBJ
tanned was nearly 1900 feet from the
pyramid.-Engineerin Magazine.
