HIS LONGEST ENGAGEMENT

A T the Army and Navy Club in Washington
one evening group of officers most OF
them young men, were swapping stories of va
rious engagements during the war with Spain
and the subsequent troubles in the Philippines
Among the silent listeners was one grizzled
veteran, a naval commander of national re-
nown. 1t must have occurred to one of the
young men that it was peculiarly ludicrous that
officers not long out of the academies should be
holding forth with respect to their exploits,
while this old.fellow sat silent in a corner So,
turning to the veteran, one of the young Off
GERS blithely asked
What was the longest engagement you ever
participated in, Admiral?"
1t lasted three years." said the old chap,
without suspicion of smile, "and, worst of
all, the young woman married another man. l"

The American Baby Abroad
Continued homgo
Continued from .0ge 4

Babys morning bath the most exciting
event of these days. She must always be
propped up on her pillows, so that she could
feast her eyes on every detail of it. After Roxic
had got the kettle to boiling cheerfully over the
red Goals in the big English fireplace, she laid
out the snowy garments and the dlmlnutive
toilet accessories.
Elizabeth's S pulse would beat fast when Roxie
LAID the Baby on her knees-so recklessly that
the watcher feared to see him roll off-and be-
gan to undress him. Her small ones patheti-
cally futile screams protest to this proceed
ing pierced her heart like thorns. However,
when Baby, naked and contented, sat in his
tub while Roxie poured the water over his
head and huddling red body, Elizabeth would
exclaim with ecstasy. His shrieks, arising deaf
eningly more when Roxie bean to re-
dress him, threw her into fever of anxiety
But with wonderful GOODNESS the Black
Nanny fastened every button deliberately and
parted Baby's abundant black hair. and pow
dered him and perfumed him as if the helpless
midget going to a wedding or festival, IN
stead of to his mothers arms to have his broken
heart bound up
THERE were, too. experiences just between
Elizabeth and the Baby that she shared
with no one, told no one but treasured up IN
her heart. The feel of cheek so ethereally,
down1y soft that u finger touch would seem to
dissolve 1T like snowflake. the warmth of
baby head upon her breast the snuggle OF
baby body against her owni Most wonderful OF
all the dav when Baby had first looked into her
eyes' With head thrown back on her arm, he
had gazed steadily up at her, looking through
her eyes into her soul Elizabeth did not dare
to move take her eyes from his compelling
blue stare She knew that she was trial.
In moment the newly imprisoned prophet,
seer, or philosopher gave the mystic sign, and,
inexperienced muscles assuming again the mas
tership, dropped his wabbly head aside. The
sign had been the merest flicker. shadow, ghost
of a smile that had for infinitesimal flash
suggested itself-mind could do more with
new matter-about his rounded lips. All her
life Elizabeth would keep the memory of that
signal from a soul: for she knew that it meant
approval
For the first time since her marriage, Eliza
beth had thoughts apart from her husband
Even Jack could not enter into this communion
between herself and her child. On Baby's
primal day. Jack had looked at his heir long
and carefully. and said, quite unabashed, He
has good head He'll do" And that was how
Elizabeth knew that ' his eyes were holden. !"
For though Jack was the best of husbands.
he could not know that Baby had left door Of
Heaven open as he departed He could not see
that the room where Baby, rolled in fuzzy
blankets, slept in his blue bed. serenely un-
troubled as a white cloudlet in summer sky,
was full of Angel Presences He was only a
man.

MONEY no IMPROVE RIVER,


b
Junction city. Feb. 22. Postmas.
ter j. B. Callen has received q mes
sage from Congressman Calderhead
from washington stating that the
sundry GIN bill that passed CON
tained an item Of $4,000 for the
Improvement Of the Republican
river above the bridge north Of this
city.
Several times during the high wa
ter the banks were washed away
and the attention was called to Con-
gresham Calderhead. He came
down and with several government
engineers looked over the improve
ments that were needed and decided
that the best manner to handle the
high water was with bikes and
jetties. The jetties viii keep the
water out on the south side and this
will greatly protect the Washington
street bridge. The improvements
will also be made near the bridge on
the government site and this will no
doubt save the structure.
