have been visible, and being loaded
with Pittsburg coal, tons and tons,
of the fuel are now being recovered.
The coal is practically as good as the
day 1t sank.
The steamers Tom Rees and The
Mariner were en- route from Pittsburg
to points on the lower Mississippi
with % barges of coal in tow at the
time of the accident. About sunset
they would have passed Hickman
had 1t not been for fear of an ap-
preaching storm. On this account the

RESIGNATION ANNOUNCED
Sir Henry mpbell-Bannerman's Res
ienation Leaves England With
out a Prime Minister.

London, Eng. - The long expected
resignation of Sir Henry Campbell
Bannerman was officially announced
Monday night According to the court
circular he resigned on the urgent
recommendation of his medical advis-
er.
The country is left without premier
or ministry, the cabinet retiring with
the prime minister, according to Gus
tom.
King Edward is at Biarritz, this be-
Ing the first occasion on which the
resignation of a prime minister found
the monarch abroad. The king was at
once advised, however, and has sent
for Herbert A. Asquith, chancellor of
the eXchequer, to whom 1t is expect
ed he will offer the premiership.
1t is regarded as practically certain
that David Lloyd George, president
of the board of trade, will succeed
Asquith as chancellor. and that Sir
Edward Gray will retain his portfolio
as foreign secretary. One speculation
is that Winston Spencer Churchill, un-
der secretary Of the legation, will take
the place of the Earl of Elgin as col
onial secretary, and that Lord Tweed
mouth, first lord of the admiralty, will
withdraw to accept some other office.

CHEERING THE SICK
CUSTOM OF MAKING PREsENTN
is GOOD ONE.
Especially In the Case Of Young People
Il Acts as an Incentive to Quick
Reeovery-Are Seldom
Forgotten.

Mary" said the doctor to his little.
girl patient, now convalescing. when
you get well don't let them forget the
presents" meaning thereby the pres
ents that little Mary's parents had
promised to her when she should be
well again; of which sort Of presents.
indeed, many are made.
When people think of presents It IS
commonly, to be sure, of those made
at Christmas time, or on birthday or
other anniversaries, or at wedding or
other celebrations, but many presents
are made to the sick, or assurance of
them is given, for future delivery, on
recovery.
Friends send in flowers to cheer the
sick. Indeed a considerable percent
age OF the florists trade Ia in flowers
bought to be sent to sick friends.
Presents for younger people NAV
take more material form. Often
such presents are promised to be-
given when the child gets well, with
the hope that the prospect OF them
VIII stimulate recovery.
After hard and maybe dangerous
illness the little one comes through alb
right and gets started on the road Ia
recovery, tired and weak but now
steadily improving. And then tho
happy, grateful mothor:
Mary, you must hurry up and get
well, now" and then she goes on to
tell her what she's going to give her
when she does get well, a new dress
or $40 to put in the savings bank or
that big doll that Mary had wanted, or
whatever 1t might be that she thinks
would please Mary most; and IL the,
SICK one Is a boy, why then the prom
ised gifts are such as would give him
the greatest pleasure. Many gifts
are thus made; and these things the
sick ones look forward to the possess
sion of with helpful delight. \
1t was to things thus promised that
the doctor referred when he said to
Mary that she mustn't let her folks
forget the presents when she got
well; but he was only joking when he
SAID that, simply helping her the more
by bringing to her mind in this new
way, from him, the pleasant pfospect
of them; he knew they would not for
get them, for parents seldom do forget
them.
Older people themselves sick NAV
make VOWS that If they are blessed
with recovery they will make gifts
here and there as an Offering and then
when they get we'll they may forget;
but parents seldom forget their prom
ises to their childhen.
So while Christmas is tho great
time of gifts. yet what with the pres
euts made on various festive occasions
and, by no means least, the presents
made to the sick, who are not all sick
at once, the season of gifts ia really
continued the year around.
