His Feelings While Falling.

The Swiss Alpine climber, ST.
grist, who once fell from the top of
the Karpfstock, in Switzerland, de-
scribed his sensations while falling
as follows:
''The plunge, which was taken
backward, was in nowise sccompa-
MED by the anxiety such as one has
when one dreams of falling. l
seemed to be borne in the most
pleasant manner gently downward
and had complete consciousness
during the entire fall. Free from
all pain or fear, | contemplated my
position and the future of my fami-
", which knew was assured by the
insurance | carried. And this con-
temptation was accomplished with
a rapidity which | had never be-
fore known. OF the losing of my
breath, of which people talk, there
was no suggestion, and only the
heavy fall on to the snow covered
ground caused me to lose suddenly
and painlessly all consciousness.
The bruising Of my head and limbs
on the rocks as 1 fell caused me no
pain. In fact, l did not feel it.

Chinese Legend of the PIeiadss.

In China, according to a native
legend, long before the Caucasians
we're born there were seven sisters
who lived Oh the banks of the Gel-
low river. In order that they might
attain the greatest glory in the
world to come they vowed that they
would never marry. But the par
ents, having very different IDEAS,
betrothed the eldest to a highly de-
sirable young man Of their ac-
ouaintance. Obedience is one OF
the greatest virtues of the Chinese,
so the girl was compelled to give
her consent. She told her sisters
that they would never see her again
and promptly jumped into the Vel
low river. After a short consulta-
ton they concluded to follow her

desire to be considered a leader Of
this new and interesting band. Its

The battlecry OF Downward revi-

have rallied I'm the recent legislative
doings at Washington, Is a new phrase
and represents a new phase OF the
political situation. Party lines have
become so mixed up in the last few
months Of tariff discussion that one
who has not closely followed the rapid
changes In the situation is apt to have
difficulty In recognizing the party and
factional alignments of the moment.
A 10; OF new coteries confront him.
There are the ''progressives' among
the Republicans, also sometimes called

and insurgents" have generally been
applied In the controversy over the
tariff bill to the downward revision

high tariff men In the house OF repre-
sentatives who opposed President
Taft's plan for free raw materials and
reduction Of duties on manufactured
articles entering into large use among
the masses have also been referred to
as insurgents.
In the inception OF the movement In

THE TWO R0Ans.


ThFoohold o. Lito.
It was New Years night. An
aged man was standing by the vim
dow. BE mournfully raised hb
eyes toward the deep blue sky,
Fs shsFs % tas sttxls we're AoSthg like
white lilies on the surface Of a
clear, calm Lake. Then be cast
them on the earth, where few more
helpless beings than himself were
moving toward their inevitable
goal-the tomb. Already he had
passed sixty of the stages which
lead to it, and he had brought from
his journey nothing but errors and
remorse. His health was destroyed,
his mind unfurnished, his heart
sorrowful and his old age devoid Of
comfort.
The days Of his youth rose up in
a vision before him, and he recalled
the solemn moment when his IA
ther had placed him at the entrance
Of two roads, one leading into
peaceful, sunny land, covered with
fertile harvest and resounding
with soft, sweet songs, while the
other conducted the wanderer into
a deep, dark cave, whence there
was no issue, where poison flowed
instead of water and where ser
pents hissed and crawled.
He looked toward the sky and
cried out in his anguish: 40
youth, return! o my father, place
me once more at the crossway of
life, that / may choose the better
roadp But the days Of his youth
had passed away, and his parents
were with the departed he saw
wandering lights float over dark
marshes and then disappear.
"Such," he said, "were the days OF
nv wasted lifel" He saw a star
shoot from heaven and vanish in
darkness athwart the churchyard.
'Behold an emblem of myselff" he
exclaimed. And the sharp arrows
of unavailing remorse struck him
to the heart.
Then he remembered his early
companions, who had entered life
With him, but who, having trOd the
paths of virtue and industry, we're
now happy and honored on this
New Years night. The clock IN the
high church tower struck, and the
sound, falling on his ear, recalled
the many tokens of the love Of his
parents for him, the prayers they
had offered up in his behalf. Over
whelmed with shame and grief, be
dared no longer look toward that
heaven where they dwelt. His
darkened eyes dropped tears, and,
with one despairing effort, he cc.el
aloud: "Come back, my early days
Come back"
And his youth did return, for all
this had been but a dream, visiting
his slumbers on New Years night.
He was still young; his errors only
were no dream. He thanked God
fervently that time was still bis
own, that he had not yet entered
the deep, dark cavern, but ne was
free to tread the road leading to
the peaceful land where sunny har-
vests wave.
Ye who still hnger on the thresh-
old of life, doubling which path to
choose. remember that when wears
shall be passed and your feet shall
stumble on the dark mOuntaIn you
will cry bitterly, but CRY in vain:
