ed. 1t was the face that held him fas-
| cinated. The features were we'll cut
and regular; the eyes were calm and
unafraid and of deep tender blue
that moved Pengreave strangely.
"Where do you live?" he demanded.
The girl smiled.
81 don't live here" she explained. II
am a visitor from the Helping Hand
society"
Pengreave was puzzled.
'"rhey need charity here?" he de-
manded. Il thought that was only
with the very poor"
''These are the very poor" she said
simply. Don't you know?"
Pengreave shook his head in bewil-
derment. Twenty years he had lived
there, and poverty had come to be his
| neighbor, but he did not know it.
Had / known l should have given
aid," he said quietly. IF there is need,
come to me- The DOCTOR will pay
| him. Send me his bill. I am sorry for
Nrs-Mrs"-
Brady" supplied the girl. "You are
very good"
Then the physician hustled in, and
Pengreave went downstairs to his
rooms. In a little while there was a
| tapping at the door, and he opened 1t
to discover the girl.
"Mrs. Brady asked me to thank you
for your Kindness she said. ''It
%I,o+ CHI oI, ~
forgot the hurt Of her burn
Pengreave smiled. He could not re-
call ever having been thanked before.
He had never done anything to call for
thanks because he did not know how.
"You must come again when you
need help" he said warmly. II am
here always in the evenings. You have
but to ask"
81 shall hold you to your promise"
she said There is much good that
you can do. We are SO handicapped
by lack of money, and there is so
much that we want to do. You must
see for yourself the misery about you.
Good night"
She hurried down the hall, and Pen
greave waited until the street door
closed behind her before he shut his
own.
He went back into the room, his head
in a whirl Dimly he was conscious
that the street was not the same as 1t
had been in his boyhood. The girl
must be right. He was willing to see
with her eyes, those eyes Of the glori-
GUS blue.
Those eyes gave him much to think
about. He was not yet forty, and
more than half of his years had been
given to the unwavering pursuit of
business. True, there had been Lena,
but now Pengreave knew how little
Lena had really meant to him.
For the first time that he could re-
member he had met a woman of his
own kind, and he felt the need of
knowing more of the life he had miss
ed. He remembered that he was still
a comparatively young man, and those
blue eyes had loosened something
within his breast-his repressed boy
hood, his unrealiZed need of the soci-
ETY. or MS fellows.
He was as one born again and, being
born, saw the world in a new light.
Methodically he removed the picture
Of Lena from it's tawdry frame and
tossed it upon the Goals glowing in the
open fire. He was rather well pleased
with the reflection in the mirror above
the mantel as he stood there.
"I must get some new clothes to-
morrow" he said to the reflection;
'also / must find a place where it is
well to live, house such as she will
like. I, too, need a helping hand"
And the reflection in the mirror smiled
back at him. Now that Pengreave was
awakened he knew 1t was well. The
rest would follow in due course.

A call has been made to the stock
holders of tie new bank in this city
to pay in the amount of their SUBJ
scription by the 10th of May. The
officers of the bank say that they ex-
pect to have the institution open
and ready for business by the 18th of
next month. IL was the inten ton
OF the promoters originally to start
a national bank with capital of
$25, 900, but the business depression
came on before the bank was fully
organized and this caused them to
change to state bank with CAPT
tai of $4,000 The new bank win
be located in the Steck bauer building
recently vacated by the Iron River
bank when they moved into their
new home.

ployed in and about the mill.
Forest fires ragged in the woods

rapidity.

ductor OF the street railway for neglect

petent work as this, and In each case

railroad station, was left TO look after him

school, and this after considerable wrang-
ling and d~iscouTtesy on the part OF the

At the Theaters
..Pony Primrose" at the Boyd.

''POIly Primrose" at the Boyd.
In Polly Primrose Miss Fleming has
the best chance she has been given dur
ing the season of the Woodward Stock COM
pany at the Boyd theater. and by this
characterization of the dear little maid
whose name gives title to the play, she
is going to make her friends and admirers
more than regret that this is to be tho
last week at the theater. For Miss F1em-
ing fits the part far better than did Ade-
laide Thurston, for whom It was written.
and seems to thoroughly realize its re-
quirements. Polly is the pampered daugh-
ter of an aristocratic southern family,
with all the sweet imperiousness and self
willed whims of a girl who has the young
men OF the community at her feet, and
a father and mother and a negro nanny
all striving to spoil her still further. IL
such a thing is possible. Into her life sud-
denly comes a love that is not altogether
welcome, but is even sweeter for that,
and the girl blossoms into a woman, al
most In a day. She saves her lovers life,
and he proves the soundness OF her faith
In him, which is part OF the story. But
the many dainty little girlish touches Miss
Fleming lends TO the character as the play
progresses gives 1t its real charm. It Is
quite different from anything else she has
done, and does not call at any time for a
great expenditure OF nervous force. but It
does give ample room for the exercise OF
fancy in giving life to the character of
sweet, light-hearted loving girl, and this
phase Of the character is charmingly de-
veloped. The little comedy scenes are lone
with a dainty but sure touch that make
them most enjoyable. Miss Fleming has

nifty, yet he seizes what chance he has.
He make the hero-lover a straightforward

shares the honors Of the evening grace

talent to e~ndowing with graceful, cour-
teous life the character OF Mr.. Primrose,
and Mr.. Poulter Is making Jack Primrose
a very manly boy. George Phelps is in
the bill with a nice part, and is playing
with the same intelligent zeal that gave
him high standing here before. Mr.. Kirk
exaggerates the villainy OF the villain, and
would normally bring suspicion on him

as requires that 1t be directed elsewhere.

sands.

Golfers Weekly made an expose not
long ago Of the many different kinds OF
nostrums put before the public and ex-
plotted as cures for ali ailments and found
that nine-tenths were more Injurious than
helpful.
But there is one panacea that no doctor
or scientist can fail to recommend no mat
ter how great the analysis or test and
that is a few visits to Doctor Manawa.
There are the rowboats for a muscle
builder, the bathing for an increased and
abnormal temperature, the roller coaster
for general stimulation and e~xhilaration. the
launches for a soothing and quieting OF
weakened nerves, the merry-go-round for
equilibrium and the motion picture show
for exhaustion.
Manewa had the biggest Sunday in its
history yesterday and the patronage was
so great, so far exceeded the capacity of
the various attractions. that many hun
dreds were turned away disappointed.
II was a banner day in every sense and
money was spent more freely than even
on the Fourth and all the side shows
on the Midway did a business far beyond
all expectations and very gratifying to the
management,
The bathing feature was overtaXed, every

ice and many were used three and four

OLD PASTOR BRINGS MESSAGE
Rev. Wilson, Formerly Of Omaha,
Tells Of Christian Puritanism.
GREAT EoUAL1zNG FORCE
Minister who spent Thirteen Years
Here Addresses ola C~onErega-
ton ut Castelar, Presby-
terrain Church.

The Rev. j. NJ. wilseu. pastor OF the
CASTELAR, street Presbyterian church for
thirteen years, from 1855 to 1899, now
of the Westminster church OF Seattle, was
,fn his pulpit Sunday morning. For his
theme he took the "Puritanism OF the
Master"
"Puritanism." he said. rs the greatest
force in the moral and spiritual world
that has ever arisen. I take you back to
the fountain head Of the movement. that
IS to the Master. The Puritanism which
he founded Is just as much OF a force
today as it ever was. The power OF the
Puritan spirit lies in the personality and
Individual teachings OF Christ. AS exem-
plified in Him It was social as we'll as
Individual. He strove to lift all society
10 the standard that He followed. That Is
real genuine Puritanism. lie sought to
touch the lives o Z all men. Such n relig-
touch the lives Of all men. 1t makes It's
object the lifting Of humanity TO the hill
tops of the same high living close to
God.
Something for Socialism.
There ought to be dwelling up in this
world. That is what Socialism is striving
for. II does not seem right that one man
should be starving while his neighbor is
enjoying himself riding around in an
automobile. You may despise Socialism.
but you cannot refuse to reckon with II.
The thing to substitute for 1t is Chris
tian Puritanism.
II bring you the message that the
world needs and wants and that Is. what
ever may be the depths to which you may
have fallen Christ will say to you as to
the fallen woman, Come, thy faith saves.
THY sins are forgiven thee, go in peace
The greatest thing in the world is hv-
ing, Puritan living, and there is no better
place to help Gods church than here and
now. Do thy work here in the CASTELAR,
street church in the city of Omaha. Walk
one after another, in the footsteps Of the
Master Of Gallilee, the great Puritan of
the church,"

BEAUTIFUL STORY SHOWS DUTY
DR.. l.. GrOh Tells of Dramatic Scene
Mt Jacobs Well.

Or. l.. Groh, at st. Marks Lutheran
church. yesterday morning, took his text
from John iv:1O; Jesus answered and said
unto her, II thou knewest the gift of God
and who It is that saith unto thee, Give me
to drink: thou wouldst have asked Of Him
and lie would have given thee living
water"
This well was all the Samaritans had, ="
said DR.. Groh. They possessed no John
the Baptist, no noble kings, no magnificent
temple as did the Jews. They had only this
well. which Jacob had given them long
years before.
1T Is a beautiful scene at the well, a
scene the superior OF which has not been
conceived by the most gifted dramatists.
There In silent meditation sat the Messiah,
the Son of God, when the poor woman Of
Samaria appeared. She was not n good
woman and she came OF a despised people.
But the gentleness, the kindness with which
Christ treats her is surprising. The con-
versation between them is absorbing even
from the standpoint OF mere narrative. The
great CHRIST asks this poor woman for a
drink of water and He converses with her
for some time. He loses not a jot Of His
dignity and holiness by this conversation
with a woman of the world. And 1t is
beautiful to observe the manner in which
He reveals Himself to her. At first He
seemed to her but a lone man; then a Jew
then almost as great as Jacob, and finally
she perceives Him to be the long expected
Messiah.
The woman was ignorant OF things spir-
!tual. She was entirely OF the world. She
offered Christ a drink OF water from the
we'll of Jacob. But she did not understand
His meaning when He spoke Of the living
water which He would give her.
Christ Himself sets the example in this
beautiful story for the carrying OF the gos-
pei to all people. He shows that none are
too deep In sin TO receive the cleansing"
