he might have been cheered had he
known how mighty was the influence
he welded on ell with whom he came
in contact.
When Wakelyn get back to his
simple, bare quarters at the village
inn that night, two letters waited
for him, both from his home.
He opened the boys letter first.
and when he read IL tender smile
lowered about his lips, and something
very like tears yelled his eyes. It had
nothing to do with the case that had
been decided that day; 1t was merely.
as Wakelyn expressed it later, love-
letter from the boy, who missed his
father and his chum more than he
had words to tell. 1t warmed Wake
lyn's heart; but while he fingered the
other one, he was conscious of a re-
luctance so great that he feared to
break the seal. 1t was Lucy's an
swer, his wife's deliveranee upon the
contents of the letter he had sent to
her early in the week. He had not
asked any advice in that letter, only
told her what was in his mind, and
what he intended to do. How would
she take 1t? He felt little afraid.
He slipped the letter into his
pocket, unopened, went to wash the
dust of the days work from his face
and hands, and then sat down to his
solitary tea. He enjoyed it after
fashion, then, pushing his chair back,
sat down on the old monks bench by
the fire. That done, he cut open the
envelope of his wifes letter with
great elaboration, and drew forth
the written sheet within. He i'm
agined at once that it was not long,
because the outer page was quite
blank. When he. turned it to the
other side, his face flushed little
and his eye shone. It was a long
time since Lucy had begun letter to
him in such endearing terms. She
was undemo1strative, woman of
few words at all tim es. But for once
she had laid aside all her reserve.

letter, John, that every other worry
seemed to fade away. I just slipped

every word of what you wrote, and it
was more than kind of you to take so

A pupil in one of the grades at

the other morning by inquiring,

One Of the significant incidents of
the rioting at Chung-Sha to the Chi
cago Tribune, is that six thousand
foreign drilled soldiers who we're sta
toned there went over to the rioters.
If they are fair representatives of the
army which China has been endeav-
oring to create it will be impossible
to place much dependence on that
army for any purpose. Soldiers who
have so little of the spirit of military
discipline as to join the mob they
ought to quell could not be persuaded

"Every one who knows about rail-
reading will tell you that the most
severe test on an engine is to get the
train started" says The Commercial
Union. Same thing with advertising.
If you can induce only few buyers
to use your goods at first, as result
of advertising, there will be enough
business to earn a profit resulting
from the recommendation of one per-
son to another" Do not believe it,
comments the Philadelphia Record.
You must not only induce few buy
ers to use your goods at first, but
induce them to keep on using your
goods all the time by steady applica-
ton of the power Of publicity. When
the engineer gets his train started he
will not be carried very far by the
momentum If he cuts off the steam.
But it doesn't take as much steam
or as vigorous advertising to keep
going after the start. Probably that is
what The Commercial Union was
trying to say. The longer merchant
advertises in a newspaper the less ii
costs him to get results.
With a million immigrants pouring
