We should hate to think that chill
dren are becoming hypocritical, signs
the New York Evening Post. Yet in
the answers received from various,
boys and girls to the question, put
to them by newspaper, what they
would do if they had a million dol
lars, it was a startling unanimity
with which the youngsters decided
that they would devote large por-
ton of their wealth to the poor. One
boy remarked II would give money
10 different orphan asylums and Sal
walton Army, etc. The next de-
clared: IF had a mother / would
support her. / would buy comfort
able home to live in, give some money
to the poor and help build them
homes" Another averred: IF
4$1,0O0,OOO were mine to spend, /
would use but little of it for myself.

ing an automobile, but even he Is
eager to take the poor people out rid

How many of us use these words at

enough to claim the Fathers atten-

Once little boy who had very
bad earthly father lay dying. The
lady who sat beside him trying to-
soothe his pain, bent over him, and
laying her hand upon his forehead,
said: "Never mind, dear, you will
soon be with Jesus and with your
Father in Heaven" A SILVER of fear
passed over the worn little figure;
his face was streaked with terror as
he raised his eyes piteously to his
friends and asked: "Will He beat
me?n To him the word Father"
only meant curses and blows. Tears
rushed to the lady's eyes as she told
him that this Father loved him, asd
would soon take him to be with Him
self forever, and light spread over
the small face as though what she
said was almost too good to be true.
A Father who would be kind to him!
that would be Heaven, indeed.

Arts Elder DAYS.

All the works of art buried in an
Egyptian tomb were intended to
last 10000 years. That intention
governed the artists and reacted
upon the style Of the art Of Egypt.
It is a most important fact-per-
haps the most important and fun
damental fact that the student of
Egyptian art has to remember.
There was no place for passion in
such an art, none for grace, none
even for charm. Each figure had
merely to be made lucid-plainly
occupied about it's business or visi-
bly, shaped in the form required,
and that was all. The art of the
Egyptian tomb was to serve use
full purpose, not to please. = Sir
Martin Conway in North American
Review.

sive work along that line. A

mining expert, have been at
work since some time last

the work throughout the winter
and early spring. A diamond
drill is being used for drilling
and the entire locality is being
thoroughly tested out to deter
mine if the ore can be found in
large enough quantities to war

Already good finds of copper and
iron ore have been found and it
would not be surprising if a rich
deposit would soon be located in
the region.
This region has long been
known to contain copper and
iron and some years ago a little
work in the way of prospecting
was done but was soon abandon
ed. The people now back of it
will give the country thorough

there is to be found.
