A Royal Actress.

England boasts many titled ladies
who once knew the glories of the
stage, but Germany claims the only
actress who ever became the wife of
a ruling prince. She is the Baroness
Won Heldburg, morganatic wife of the
reigning Duke George ii. Of SAKE
Meiningen, and the people of the
Duchy have recently been showering
her with affectionate congratulations
on her seventeen birthday.
Baroness Won Heldburg was a mem

ON BOTH SIDES.

Leonora sat up with a confident
laugh and put her hair straight.
Down the road the man came running,
as she had expected. Then as she
turned triumphantly toward her com
panion she grew suddenly white and
shaken.
For Cassie was neither laughing nor
frowning at the misadventure. She
lay still and the sharp stone beneath
her head was stained crimson. Ar
thur Billingsly raised her up and the
fright in his eye met the fright in
Leonora's.
Through those fields" he ordered
ITO the Beckets' housed"
Leonora ran for help. She had in
deed thrown Arthur and Cassie to-
gether, but at what a price!
Back in the road Cassie opened her
eyes once and smiled unknowingly at
Arthur. 1t was the first time in years
that the lips of an Orchard Hill Bill
ingsly had curled up instead of down
at a Crimp Heights Billingsly-and
even this smile was bit delirious.
But it was a smile!
When Arthur Billingsly had brought
Cassie home and actually entered the
house nobody thought much about it
in the excitement. When he called the
following day to inquire about her 1t
was too late to do anything but let
him in.
Anyhow" said Cassie's helpless and
bewildered family, Arthur seems to
be an exception"

THE HIGHER FAITH.

He sends no burdens we may not endure,
And after labor there is sweet release;
The midnight pillows we may sail secure
Certain of refuge and a port of peace.
For comfort call to Him who sitting in
The circle of the heaven" heard the cry
OF those weak voices over all the din,
And fed the ravens. He is ever nigh.
And when the shadows gather like pail,
The more implicitly We trust in the Lord;
When perils threaten u.s. we should recall
Our part is to obey; Gods to reward.
Commit thy ways unto the Lord" and thou
Triumphant into port shall ride at last
Sweet comfort in thy heart and on thy brow
The sunshine speaking of the tempest past!

For Good Butter Making.

Work the salt into the butter thor
oughly, but do not work it long
enough to break the grain and make
the butter salvy.
An English authority on butter MAX
ing claims that adding one pound OF
salt to every gallon of cream imme-
diately after 1t Is taken off the milk
aids in ripening the cream and gives
from 10 to 20 per cent more butter
than from cream that had no salt in it.
The buttermilk is. of course, useless.
as 1t cannot be fed to stock when 1t
contains so much salt, but its loss is
more than made up by the large guam
tity and better quality OF butter, 1t is
claimed. Has anybody tried it over
here?

the butter from cows fed on them

When the Orchard Hill Billingslys
came TO town and walked down the
sunny side of Main street doing their
Saturday shopping it was certain that
the Billingylys of Crimp Heights would
confine themselves strictly to those
shops on the shady side Of the street.
As will be seen at once. this caused
grumbling among the merchants of
Hunterton, for the Billingslys and
their relations by marriage represent
ed a considerable proportion of all
those who did their trading in that
town.
Questioning any resident Of Hunter
ION as TO the reason for the feud was
likely to result in straining the imag-
ination of the person seeking to give
Information, for so long had the
breach lasted and so deeply buried was
its origin under mass of later accusa-
lions and counter-accusations and gen.
eral gossip that no human being, to be
strictly honest, really knew what was
the original cause. Hunterton chill
dren were born in the knowledge that
the Orchard Hill Billingslys must not
be asked to the same tea parties with
their kinsmen from Crimp Heights.
They accepted the fact-as they &C
cepted twenty-four hours in the day
and winter flannels on Oct. 15-with-
out curiosity. The present generation
of Billingslys had inherited the quar-

Don't De An Imitator.

The imitator, says Orison SWEET
Marden in Success Magazine, ruins
his capacity for originality; for initia-
tive; he loses his creative power; his
inventiveness and resourcefulness are
never developed. In fact, his executive
ability-the ability to originate, to
do things-is seriously crippled, If not
utterly destroyed by his efforts to imi-
tate some one else.
No human being ever yet made a
success trying to be somebody else,
no matter how great or successful
that person might be. Success can
not be successfully copied; 1t is orig
inal; 1t is self-expression. A man is
failure just in proportion as he gets
away from himself
When Henry Ward Beecher and
Phillips Brooks were at the height
of their fame, hundreds of young
clergymen tried to copy their style,
their mannerisms, their mode of ex-
preston, gestures, habits, but they
fell as far short of the power of either
of these giants as the comm on chrome
falls short of the masterpiece. Not
one of these imitators ever amounted
to anything until he stopped copying,
initiating, and began to build on his
own foundations.
A great many clergymen to-day
merely echo other preachers sermons
which they have read and absorbed
The majority Of the books published
echoes of the authors whose style and
plots the writer's have copied. But
these copied sermons and books lack
vitality, force. naturalness. They do
not stir the blood or touch the heart
of the nearer or reader. They are
