WOMAN'S CRUELTY.

It is astounding that some of the kindest and gentlest women, with the deepest souls and the greatest sensitiveness can be unutterably cruel to the one who loves them most. Perhaps it is because a charm ing woman so fully believes that she will always be forgiven. It is not so much that a woman is tickle as it is her natural caprices that keep her wondering whether she is happy or unhappy-and always makes be- lieve that she is very wretched. She is a creature even to herself. She wounds and gives pain and is sur prised to find that a scar remains.- Exchange.

WORD HAS CHANGED MEANING
In the Middle Ages Pageant" Meant the Scaffold, on Which the Plays
 Were Presented.

The church pageant has sent one curious about the exact meaning of words to the dictionary, wherein he finds that the original meaning of pageant" is not the one it pos sesses to-day. To us the word sig nifes a spectacle or theatrical ex- hibition. The original pageant was the fixed or movable scaffold on which plays were presented. The pageants of the middle ages were wholly ecclesiastic, as the Spectator reminds us. "The removal of these hturgical plays from choir to nave, and from nave to churchyard, were only steps in the evolution of the mystery play, and its passage from the exclusive care of ecclesiastics to it's presentation (from the end of the thirteenth century onward) by religious and craft guilds in the open streets of the towns, under a clerical supervision not altogether official" ."-London Chronicle.

MARK OF A THOROUGHBRED.

As an old horseman who has bred and handled horses of many types l have frequently been surprised at the answer given by the majority of people when asked the question :: "What constitutes the most striking difference between the thoroughbred and the common horse?"
 Nineteen out of 20 will name the beauty or the speed of the thorough bred, but important as are both of these qualities neither is correct. It is simply that the thoroughbred when he is tired will keep on with an undiminished courage and ambi- ton, while a common horse under the same circumstances will quit Outing.

ALL SORTS AND CONDITIONS.
Golf Not Only the Poor Mans Game, But the Game for Everybody,
 Without Exception.

Golf is the poor mans game" says MT. Taft, but that generaliza- tion is narrow; for golf is also the game for everybody. It is the one purely athletic sport in which wom- an comes the nearest to holding her own against masculine rivals. We may begin it's practice as soon as we are able to walk, while only recent ly the papers reported the passing, at 82, of well-known North Ber- wick amateur who had played his last round but three days before death. Rockefeller and Carnegie en- joy their game to the full, but so do the penniless caddies playing at tomato-can holes with cast-off clubs and battered balls. A native-born Maori won the amateur champion ship of New Zealand year or so ago, contending against field of white men. Louis James, while still a school boy, became amateur cham pion of the United States, and Charles Hutchins won the like honor in Britain, although he was well over 50 years of age, and grand father. In very truth, golf is for all sorts and conditions of men everybody's game.-Collier's Week. lY.

THE NEW TERROR.

German sportsmen have ob- served that airships terrify birds and wild animals to an extraor- dinary degree. When flying ma, chine is only barely distinguishable to the human eye as it appears or the horizon its approach is heralded by frightened birds, large and small flying for shelter. The noise of the motors also agitates four-footed game exceedingly, and as airships do not follow a rigid route animals cannot get used to it, as they do tc passing railway trains.

In Memoriam.

Verna Jerome Greene, only sur viving child of Rev. C. J. and Euella Greene, was born at Arka- delphia, Ark, April 26, 1893.
 On Thursday, July 2o, 1909, at six o'clock in the afternoon, his bright young spirit passed from earth to Heaven. While swim ming in the Ouachita river at Ar kadelphia, he suddenly struck dangerous current and was drowned in spite of heroic efforts made by his friends to save him. His body was brought home to Conway tor burial. The news of his tragic death was great shock to the community, and profound sorrow for his loss and sympathy for his grief-stricken parents were felt by every one.
 The funeral was very large. The services were conducted Ill his beautiful home by his pastor, Rev. l. B. Stevenson, assisted by Dr. Stonewall Anderson and Dr. Jas. A. Anderson. Many floral offer ings were sent by friends at dis tance as we'll as those at home.
 Verna came to Conway, Ark, with his parents and little sister, Ruby, nearly five years ago, being at the time twelve years of age. For one year he attended Central College. Since then he has been a student in the Hendrix College Academy. An excellent pupil, bright and promising, he gave no trouble to his teachers. He was boy of exceptional purity of char acter, honorable and straightfor- ward in all of his dealings. He truly knew no guile. All of his ambitions were pure and noble. His life was full of quiet friend ships. The sick, the old, the poor-anyone in trouble or sorrow, always appealed to him. His was indeed a kind heart and a helping hand. He loved music and was possessed of an unusual musical talent, which he was cultivating by constant study. He was devoted to his home, his father and mother and aunt. He had strong religious convictions and was converted when six years old. Two years later he joined the Methodist church at Mena, and has ever been a conscientious, c nsstent Chris tian, loving his Sunday school and his church.
 On the I7th of July he left home on a pleasant summer outing. He wanted to make walking tou. by himself. In high spirits, full of plans of enjoyment. he bade his friends goodbye At Philadelphia he stopped to visit his aunt, Mrs. Wick Graves. Between Verna and this aunt there existed love and devotion as intense as 1t was rare and beautiful.
 Verna is gone. He sleeps in Oakland Cemetery by the side of little Ruby. Father and mother, relatives and friends are left mourn ing, sorrowing and wondering why his bright, brave, young life should have ended so soon. We cannot think of him as dead. He has only passed to higher life. What glorious possibilities are his, with his loved sister, in that "Land that is fairer than day. v
 "Death cannot long divide.
 For is it not as though the rose
 that climbed my garden wall
 Had blossomed on the other
 side?
 Thou with Christ, and Christ
 with me.
 In Christ united still are we.
