A Japanese Leqend.

One of the prettiest Of all the stories
relating to mirrors is that which comes
from Japan. In this a man brings as
a gift to his wife a mirror Of silvered
bronze. Then she, having seen moth
Ing Of the kind before, asks in the in
nocence of her heart whose was the
pretty face smiling back at her. And
when. laughing, he tells her it Is none
other than her own she wonders still
more. but is ashamed to ask further
questions. But when at last her time
comes to die she calls her little daugh-
ter and gives her the treasure she has
long kept hidden away as a sacred
thing, telling her: "After / am dead
YOU must look in this mirror morning
and evening and you will see me. Do
not grieve." So when the mother Is
dead the girl, who much resembles her,
looks in the mirror day by day, think
Ing she there talks face to face with
the dead woman and never guessing
" Is but her own reflection sne sees.
And 1t Is added by he old japanese
narrator that when the girls father
learned the meaning Of this strange
conduct Of hers, "he thinking 1t to be
a very piteous thing, his eyes grew dim
with tears"

Barrie and kiplino.

Mr.. Barrie was one day at Waterloo
station in Il hurry to catch a train. He
was fastening from the bookstall
laden with papers, "a good many six.
penny mes among them" he d~olefully
relates, when. in rushing around a
corner, he fell into the arms of Rud-
yard Kipling, equally in a tearing
hurry. They turned on each other
with scowling faces, then smiled in
recognition and asked each other
whittier he went. Then Kipling, ex-
claiming, Lucky beggar, you've got
papers, seized the bundle from Bar
RE, flung him some money and made
off. But you did not stoop to pick
up his dirty halfpence, did you?" que
ried one Of Mr.. Barrie's hearers anus
eddy. didn't l, thought" returned
Barrie, and added ruefully, But he
hadn't flung me half enough."-St

An Apt Answer.

The dangers associated with the fish
ing industry on the Newfoundland
banks are many and grave. Foremost
among them is that the dories may be
upset while fishing, which involves
almost inevitable loss of their Occu-
pants. Callous captains, secure them
selves from the necessity of going, fire.
quently order their men out when the
weather does not warrant it, and dis
astrous are the results. One Of these
brutal shippers was APPLY answered
once by a bank man Of whose courage
or capacity there was no question.
"Out with you" shouted the cap
tain. Hurry up there! It's a fishing
day.
"Oh, no, skipper replied the dory
man. Its too stormy today for a
boat to fish"
Nonsense, man. rejoined the skip
per. IF my old grandmother was here
today she'd get her dory out"
Then, skipper" said the man, 'if
her grandson will come out with me
now I'll haul my trawl."
1t is needless to say no dOries were
launched from that schooner on that
date.-Philadelphia Ledger.

A Caroline islands Legend.

The Caroline Islands group includes,
besides coral Islands, FIVE mountainous
islands Of basaltic formation, beautiful
and fertile with rivers and springs.
Among the many queer legends OK
these children Of the Pacific there Is
none more highly improbable than
their theory as to the origin of these
islands and their inhabitants. They
think they themselves were very
strong in the water-in fact, they lived
In it. The story goes that a woman
and her children were floating around
on the reef when a mar appeared from
the west with a basket of soil Oh his
shoulders. He had started out to make
an island with a mountain on 1t. One
Of the children cried out to him, "Give
us a little soil to make a place for our
mother to rest, for she is very weak
md cannot SWIM" He took out a
handful Of the earth and threw 1t
down, making an island. AS the man
was going on his way over the water
the son slyly made a hole In the bas-
ket, so as he proceeded on his way he
left a trail Of land behind. Suddenly
he became conscious that the basket
seemed light. and, looking around, he
saw the land. In his anger he turned
about and trod upon 1t, and thus the
islands were formed.

"Ah, Jack, old boy, you're coming
around all right!' cried the doctor

viving draft.

grew stronger, the physician continued
in tender, kindly tone: Il am glad

sought that of the doctor.
The blue and white gown drew back
into the shadows.
"Here we are!" exclaimed the doc

came to their ears. Now let us see
how well you can walk"
The blue and white gown, torn and
b~edraggled, followed closely in the
wake Of these devoted friends, and
little Mrs. Engle climbed up the steps
Of the homeward bound coach behind

After Jack was comfortably settled

after the lady who sc bravely helped
bring you back from the borderland."

Rose Colds From Paper Roses.

colds" a doctor said. "She caught a
bad rose cold last week from a bou'
Quet Of artificial roses. That offer
happens. 1t is supposed to show the
mystic, psychological aspect of dis
ease, but as a matter of fact it is just
as natural to take a rose cold from
paper roses as from the real kind
Why? Because the paper roses tina
bring ON rose colds are always per
fumed. 1t is the fad, you know, to per
fume artificial flowers. The scent USED
is the essential oil Of roses, and it Is

work, and could scarcely draw
a full breath without fainting or
smothering. The doctor told me
he could do no more for me;

MRS. LAURA RUSSELL,
Logan, Iowa.
When the heart action is
weak, it fails to pump the blood
through the lungs with sufficient
rapidity. Then the lungs do not
absorb the proper amount OF
oxygen, although they may be
taking in a normal amount OF
air. The result is shortness OF
breath, smothering spells, diff
cult breathing, oppressed feeling
in chest. DR.. Miles Heart REM
edy strengthens the heart nerves
and muscles, and in this way
increases the circulation.

STOKES SCORED BY
KEARNY BRIGADE VETS
Officers Elected at Reunion at
JameSburg,

Former Governor Stokes was severely
criticised at the twenty-eighth annual
reunion of Kearny's First New Jersey
Brigade Society at Jamesburg yester-
day because he would not aid the COM
rades in an effort to have the body of
General Philip Kearny removed from
the graveyard of Trinity Church, New
York, to New Jersey. The veterans of
the brigade want the body In a grave
where they can erect a monument.
Veterans said that two years ago
they had a bill in the Legislature au-
thorizing the removal of Kearny's body
to New Jersey and when a committee
from the brigade society asked Stokes
to assist in having the bill passed he
refused to do anything.
Captains Bodine, Lawrence and Hop
kins and Lieutenant Tillou were ap.
pointed a committee to solicit subscrip-
lions to a fund for the erection of a
Kearny monument. The secretary read
an editorial in the STAR on General
Kearny and it was ordered spread upon
the minutes in full.
These were elected officers of the So
ciety for the ensuing year: William M.
McElleany. president; Thomas T.
Tillou, Elizabeth, treasurer; Sumner d.
Aspinwall, Newark, corresponding Sec
Rotary; e. H. Graeme, New York, re-
cording secretary; William II. McDon-
aid, Newark, chaplain.
