THIEF TURNS SAMARITAN.
Helps Woman He Waylaid While Sht
Was Seeking a Doctor.


While on her way to get physician
for her sick baby Mrs. @. d. Hartlett of
Yardville. N. j., was held up by high
wayman, and now she is convinced that
had it not been for the holdup her baby
would have died, as the footpad played
the part of the good Samaritan" Short
ly after midnight the child was taken
suddenly ill. Mrs. Hartlett is a widow,
with five small children, and her home is
in a lonely part of the country. The
nearest doctor lives five miles distant
After she had run two miles Mrs. Hart
lett was exhausted and almost tainted.
While making a brave effort to continue
a man stepped from behind tree and
demanded her money. Mrs. Hartlett
pleaded with him to let her go, explain
ing her mission. The man asked the
location of the doctors residence, and
when he learned it he urged her to go
back to her home, promising solemnly
to take the summons to the physician.
DR.. George Van Pelt was sound asleep
when he heard loud noise at his door.
A stranger, described as being about six
feet in height, we'll built and of youthful
appearance, was at the door. He eX-
planned the condition of the woman's
baby and urged the physician to hurry.
DR.. Van Pelt did not want to make
the journey until after dawn, but the
stranger was so persistent that the doc
tor consented if the man would go to
his stable and hitch up his horse. The
man did this, and the doctor drove quick
ly to the Hartlett home. The baby is
now out of danger.

The Flowers of the States.

There is a lively discussion in Virginia
over the adoption of stat efower The
daisy has been suggested, and it is both
affirmed and denied that this flower was
first brought south by northern soldiers
during the Civil war.
The goldenrod is already the chosen
flower of Alabama, Kentucky, Maryland
and Nebraska. Arkansas and Michigan
have adopted the apple blossom, Louis
lana and Mississippi the magnolia, Wash
ington and West Virginia the rhododen-
dron, Iowa and North Dakota the wild
rose, California has the poppy, Colorado
the columbine, Connecticut the mountain
laurel, Delaware the peach blossom, Ida
no the syringa, Indiana chooses corn,
Kansas the sunfower, Maine the pine
cone, Minnesota the moccasin, Montana
bitter root, New York the rose, Ohio the
red carnation, Oklahoma the mistletoe,
Oregon the grape, Rhode Island the VIC
let, South Dakota basque" Texas the
blue bonnet, Utah the Sego lily, Vermont
red clover, Tennessee the daisy.
This question has been settled in Great
Britain, where
Scotland has the thistle England the rose
Everybody knows where the shamrock
grows.
Then there are the lilies of France
and, perhaps, the hops of Germany

The mother says. Girls will be girls, y
and hides her fatigue and wounded feel
ings deep in her heart. She means well,
but she does not realize that she is hurt
ing her daughter more surely than by
neglect.
The girl will become hardened in her
selfishness, or when her eyes are opened
she will endure agonies of regret for the
time she made her mother unhappy.
Try being considerate just for a day.
Make up your mind to live your life for
twenty-four hours from the standpoint of
those around you.
Shift your good times to father moth
er, the old aunt, or the younger children.
Say to yourself, ''I'H be unselfsh,' no
matter at what cost.
You will be deep rooted in your selfish
ness if at the end of that day you do
not feel happier for your striving.
You must not expect miracles. Your
nature will not be transformed in a
night. You will be inconsiderate again
and again, but make your efforts for re-
form by the day and take a new start
after each slip-up.-Exchange

AMERICANS MASTER CHINESE.
More Than 1000 Women Missionaries
Have Learned Language.

A traveller visiting in China for the
first time is struck by the number of
American women he meets who speak
the native tongue fuently. His first con-
clusion is that these young women he
meets everywhere, even in the isolated
interior towns. must be American born
stenographers. Finally, however, he
learns that they are missionaries. At
the Methodist university in Pekin,
which more than six hundred Chinese
students attend, the traveller may meet
Miss Alice Terrell, professor of mathe-
MATES. Miss Terrell has been interested
in educational work in China for fifteen
years, and is pointed out as one of the
greatest Americana Chinese lnguists. She
is now il this country on years leave
of absence. and is devoting this time to
special work at Columbia university.
One of the books that Miss Terrell
brought with her out of the Orient is the
Chinese Bible. This she always keeps
within reach, so that during her odd
moments she hay read it, and thus insure
no loss of the language that required
many months of intelligent study on her
part to absorb for the practical purposes
of university instruction.
There are 1850 of these young women
scattered about in every province of Chi
ma. In addition there are many married
women missionaries who are independent
in mission work.
Including the old Chinese classics,
which are not used today, the Chinese
language contains between $4,000 and
10000 characters.
While no American ever completely
mastered the Chinese tongue, the same
can be said of the Chinese themselves.
Those who might prove rare exceptions
to this would be few of the profound
Chinese students. Even these students
would not be able to read the ancient
Chinese classics TO any great extent
without the aid of a Chinese dictionary.
What. adds to a students difficulty in
studying the language is the consider
able difference between the north and
the south country dialects. The language
popularity spoken is what the mission
aries generally speak, except those who
live near the coast from Shanghai south.
The missionarys first year is given up
entirely to studying the language. The
second year she continues the study, and
when the mission work presses, she may
assist wherever possible. The third year
she begins to take up some work with
responsibility attached, but she keeps on
studying. By the fourth year the mis-
sionary has usually penetrated the mys-
FERROUS tongue to the extent of five TO
seven thousand words.-Boston Herald.

Divorce Cards.

A Cincinnati woman has issued di-
vorce cards explaining that she cannot
see why it is not as proper to do that
as to make formal announcement of ell
gagements or births. The Cincinnati
lady probably got her idea from John
Jacob Astor, who, a few months ago,
gave a notable divorce supper in New
York. Divorce cards will, in addition
to the information they convey, be use.
full in showing the social standing of
the divorced lady and gentleman. Fol
those who make fine pretensions hand
somely engraved cards will have to be
used, while people in the humber walks
of life may be expected to get along
suggested that particularly dainty
grass widow might add pleasing touch
by having her divorce cards adorned
with baby ribbon and sent out in sweet
scented envelopes.

There Are Hotels in the City Where Do
minion Coin Is Welcome
Getting rid of Canadian money in New
York need not depend entirely upon the
chance good will of a bartender if the
person who happens to get the Dominion
silver only knows where to go. There
are hotels. several of them, up around
the Grand Central station where Cana
dian money can be exchanged for Amer
can coin without any of the discount
that the average person exacts There
hotels have Canadian customers who
come in from the north on trains arriv-
ing at the station and the cashiers are
accustomed to exchange money for them.
Furthermore the cashiers take not
only theasilver, but the bank notes also.
They know they will be able to make ex-
change later on when Canadian travel
ers are going back, or if they happen to
get large sum on hand they ship it
down town to a Canadian banking
branch and get the equivalent for it in
United States money. So if a person
happens to get Canadian coins it isn't
necessary to make pocket pieces out of
them. because they can be converted
easily into American money.

"THE CHAMOIS TRAIL"
Instructive Wisdom Guides Them in
Way of Avoiding Avalanches.

Every day at noon at Grindelwald,
says the Pail Mall Gazette, there is a
rush of visitors for the telescopes, in or
der to gaze at one of the most interesting
natural scenes in the Alps, ''the Chamois
trail"
Regularly at this hour a herd of TWEEN
ty to thirty chamois may be seen passing
in Indian file up the yawning abysses Of
the precipitous Mettenberg rocks. sep
arating two glaciers, the male animals
leading the way, the king of the herd
keeping 20 yards in advance and on the
watch.
At the bottom of the Mettenberg,
where the slope is freed from snow, the
chamois find meager subsistence when
their usual feeding grounds are under
deep snow
1t is curious fact that the chamois
descend to their feeding grounds at
dawn. when there is little likelihood of
avalanches and return to their haunts
at an hour when avalanches-for this
portion of the mountain has frequent
avalanches-have already fallen and the
danger is past.

Selfish Girls

Some us learn consideration in a pain
full school, We cultivate our selfishness
for years, only to find when too late that
it is impossible to undo it, however our
feelings have changed.
Selfshness is a fault of youth. Girls
are out for a good time, and unless they
have natures of exceptional loneliness
they achieve that good time with little
thought of those around them
Sometimes it is the self-sacrificing
mother who suffers. Her mother love
gives mgrudgingly, and she is blind to
the fact that her daughter is making a
poor return, is growing pleasure loving,
selfish, lazy.

made upon him to restore certain jewels
of great value claimed as the property of
the Persian government. The missing
jewels are believed to have been either
clandestinely sold or mortgaged to for

proximate value of the jewels is said to
