bricks lie just as they were when the allied forces relieved the garrison. To preserve the memory of those try ing days and nights, Sir Claude Mac donald, then in command of the Brit ish post, had the words Lest We For get" painted at the spot where the attacks were fiercest. This is the only real mark today in Picking of the great trouble of 1900. The words are far reaching, and they bring back to mind the scenes of treachery and strife which were enacted near by, and the many anxious hours spent by those who had friends and relations within the walls of the British legation dur ing the siege.-November Wide World Magazine.

Millie and Bessie were playin~ at keeping house on the back steps. They had already played at everything they could think of, had prepared every meal necessary in the routine of a day. bad scrubbed and dusted and now their ingenuity was at standstill.
 Suddenly Bessie had a brilliant idea She fairly danced with delight at her originality
 "oh, let's play making jelly!" she said
 T should say not.p returned Millie, very decisevly My sister Jennie has been making preserves and jelly all summer and I know that's nothing to have fun with
 Bessie was to taken aback at this outburst that she had not thought of any reply to make before Millie asked her: Does your ma make preserves and jelly?"
 "Sometimes," replied Bessie.
 "Sometimesl" repeated Millie. "No wonder you think it's fun. But my sister Jennie has been making that sort of stuff all summer.
 Jennie is going to be married. you know" explained Millie, 'so she IS learning to cook. Pa says she should learn to cook a good steak the first thing, and ma says she ought to learn to make biscuits and such things first, but Jennie says she wants to learn to make preserves first, cuz she says Will-thats her beau-likes sweet things and so does she. But we just hate 'em. She don't care nothing about us." added Miilie bitterly. And it's taking her an awful long time to learn to make such things. Just think of it. All summer!
 "Onee when she was putting on some raspberrles one of the jars broke and she scalded her three fingers. Maybe pa wasn't mad when he had to pay the doctor bill till her fingers were we'll But Jen said she didn't care much, 'cuz you couldn't get no more berries anyway, and she said she was just taking rest. And ma said she was taking rest, too.

are preventable. Child slaughter by automobiles is inexcusable. The child crossing the street cannot be expected to appreciate the difference between a 50 horse power car rushing along and the slow moving cart in front of which he may safely run. The man in the automobile, who, if he is fit to manage 1t, knows its power, it's liability to accumulate speed and momentum be- yond his immediate control, and has a responsibility for the safety of other users of the street commensurate with his greater power of injury. There are careful and safe motorists by the thousands. The rights which these persons have in the road are impor- tant. But if these rights are to be preserved in full, the wrongs which the careless and unsafe drivers commit must be punished, and more severely than the courts as a rule have been inclined to decree.-Boston Herald.

TIE BULLETINS DAILY STORY
THE VOICE OF EXPERIENCE

'sThe worst of it was" continued Millie. that we never had no pud- ding nor pie or anything like that while Jennie was making preserves. We always had for our dessert what was left over after the jars were fill- ed. And. say, maybe you tnink we didn't all get sore when we saw that stuff coming to the table, We had jelly or preserves for breakfast. pre- serves for lunch, jelly after school and jelly or preserves for supper. Oh. l tell you, 1t was just the awfullest thing! And I guess we ain't over 1t yet, 'cuz heard Jennie say yesterday she was going to make some peach butter. Ugh,'
 Neither spoke for a while.
 'rWhen I grow up" Millie said at last, with vehemence, and have to get married and have to learn to cook. you bet I won't make jelly and preserves. just hate 'em.''
 Silence reigned again for a time. Both little girls were buried in deep thought, Bessie trying to grasp the Millie breeding over past horrors.
 Play make jellyi" repeated Millie with a sheer. You never was in Kitchen where there was nothing but hotness and steam, and you was al- ways gettin' chased out. First it was ma, being afraid I'd get scalded, and then Jen would chase me. and she was so scared that I'd get taste of her old preserves. I never wanted 'em anyway"
 Again both fell to thinking.
 Say, Bess, smell somethin'?" asked Millie, suddenly coming out of her reverie. her nose pointing kitchen ward.
 Smells like peaches, I think" an- swered Bessie after sniffing the air.
 "Uh-huhl that's what it is. Jennie's making some peach butter. and it's just fine. Hurry up and we'll get some" called Millie over her shoulder to Bessie as she ran up the kitchen steps.-Chicago News.

FIRES IN OCTOBER.

The fire losses in this country and Canada amounted to $17765,200, which Is nearly $5,000,000 less than in Octo- ber 1908, and over $4,000,000 more than in October, 1907, according to tha figures of the New York Journal of Commerce.
 The Connecticut fires of note in October. were as follows:
 Jacksonville, woolen mill ..... .t1o, 900 Hartford, furniture store. .... 50,000 Bridgeport. iron foundry. 37,000 Noank, gasoline yacht ........ 35,000 Hartford, newspaper plant, etc. 25.000 Cromwell, drug store, etc. .... 12,000
 The year has been better than the average for fire losses and The Jour nal of Commerce ventures to say:
 '..The larger fire insurance companies, having a well distributed business, will have fairly good year if there are no abnormal losses during November and December. The experience of the first half of 1909 was decidedly bad for most companies, but the third quarter of the year showed quite satisfactory results"
