THE new YEARS CHOICE
It is Well to Choose Wisely for the
Time That is to
----- Come.

Once, long ago, the Lord appeared
in a vision of the night to young
man with the offer. "Ask what I shall
give thee" And a decisive moment
was that in which the. young king
weighed against all others the thing
which he most desired.
Centuries lie between us and the
young king, Solomon, but still-and
especially on each recurring New
Year's-God appears to each of us
with practically the same offer, "Ask
what shall give thee" And, as with
Solomon, so with every heart, there
lies the choice of the gift Were the
question an audible one, what would
your answer be?
Each recurring New Years, in eft.
feet, says: ASK what shall give
thee" And the choice for the coming
year may be our choice for all the
years of life. 1t is by choice that mon

ence And it is not question of this
and that. but of this or that. To
choose is to decide between, to leave
as we'll as to take. Therefore, what
will be our choice for the year before
US? God Himself asks the question.

Hardy Old Sea Dog Who Commands
3 New Zealand Liner Mixed Up
in Many Thrilling Adven-
lures at Sea

London.-A hundred times round
the world is the record of Capt. Her
bert Edward Greenstreet. He is COM
mander of one of the crack steam
ers of the New Zealand Shipping Com
pany now, but he has seen shipping
develop from sailing vessels to steam,
and from the single-screw steamers to
the tWin-screw leviathans that ply on
all the oceans of the world.
Capt. Greenstreet began life on the
water as a Worcester" boy in 1866.
Two years he spent in this British
floating nautical college, moored off
Greenhithe, down the Thames, and
then he went to sea. Sailing ships
held sway in those days, and the
young sailor voyaged to Australia,
China, Japan and across the north At
lantic. Then he passed as second
mate and went away in that capacity
on the Galatea, a Liverpool-owned
ship.
A few days after the Galatea had
loaded her cargo at Newcastle and
had put to sea for San Francisco,
young Greenstreet had the misfortune
to break his leg-a compound fracture
above the knee, caused by the anchor
stock falling on him. Out came the
surgery book and the captain and the
blacksmith-truly a strange combina-
tion-undertook to set the broken
limb. Following the books instruc-
tons, they made such an excellent job
of it that when the vessel reached
San Francisco. the doctor who came

DEATH OF THE OLD YEAR.

BY CHARLOTTE BEAUMONT JARVIS
Miserere! toll the bell,
Let the earth send forth a knell.
For a great soul takes his flight.
None knows whittier, in the night
Miserere!
Stretched upon his snowy bier.
Dying lies the good Old Year;
And upon the midnight gale
All may hear his parting wall
Miserere! "a
In the old kings chequered reign
There were mingled joy and pain;
Friends proved false, while foes were
true,
Sinners many, saints few
Miserere!
There were hearts that suffered wrong.
Bore it brayely, and were strong:
Hearts there were, so black within.
Satan wondered at their sin
Miserere!
Carriers full of fruitful store.
Measures pressed, and running DER:
Famine in the streets at night,
Doing deeds too dark for light
Miserere!
Rang the church bells for the wed, z -
Tolled they also for the dead:
In one home joy was born.
From another joy was torn
Miserere!
Such earth's sorrow, such its sin.
All must end where they begin;
Snow which wraps the New Years feet
Is the Old Years winding sheet
J Miserere!
Now his spirit goeth fast,
Midnight hour will be his last:
To your knees, earth's worn and waarv-
Nserere! Mlserere!

and her lips moved as if she were
speaking the names of her dead ones.
For many minutes her reverie was
unbroken, and she heard not the tick
tack! tick-tack! of the steady old
clock =.
Mine - ten - eleven!" suddenly
called the clock. "The son? All! how
absentminded 1 have become! Well
do l remember the day a woman with
pale face and frightened eyes opened
the door and handed you letter,
which bore the insignia of death. You
opened it with trembling fingers, and
next moment you were like one dead.
There were days and days when you
hoVered between life and death, and l,
for my part gave up all hopes. Died
in a foreign land; buried among
strangers over the sea. 1t was blow
aimed at heart twice broken"
The woman covered her face and
moaned in anguish, and the clock con-
tinued:
Don't grieve so, the dead are at
rest forevermore. Life's mistakes may
need to be washed away with tears,
but the dead reaped their reward. You
are old and poor and broken, but who
can tell what new friends the new
year may raise up for you? I cannot
tell you to forget the past, for moth
er's heart ever goes out for her dead,
but the new year may have more
sunshine. Come, now I am about to
strike the old year out and the new
year in. Let us greet the new with a
smile of welcome as count-ten-
eleVen-twelve-a happy New Year,"
The woman did not move.
"Heigho!" called the clock: 1--WE
have left the old behind!" I
Her hands had dropped beside her,
and her head had fallen.
Dead" clicked the clock, as the
last faint echoes of his bell died away.

"Seven-eight nine! Do you hear
that Z" asked the old clock in the cor
Here it is & full hour after your
bedtime, and yet you SIT there staring
into the fre!"
In. front of the fire sat an old wom-
an-gray haired, wrinkled, feeble. The
voice of the clock did not disturb her,
but as she watched the fitful flames,
one could have read her thoughts.
"But it's excusable on this night"
continued the clock, in soft tones.
"Heigho! but it's the last night of the
old year! Three hours more and we
are done with 1909. You and I are
going to watch the old year out to-
gether. Let's see? How many years
have I seen come and go? Forty-ex-
actly forty with this one. That's long
time, long time"
The woman rocked gently to and
fro, and by and by the clock suddenly
called out:
"What, tears in your eyes! Come,
now, but that's no way to end the
year. We are thinking of the same
thing. Yes, he was good and loving
husband, and I'll say this for both of
you, that never heard an unpleasant
word between you. 1t is IL years
since he died. I could only look into
his face as he lay on his dying bed,
and if ever heaven sent it's light to
lead soul across the dark valley it
was given to him. I remember your
tears and means and sobs, and you
prayed that death might come to you
as we'll"
The woman wiped her tears, and
there was feeling of suffocation as
she let memory bring up the events.
"Eight-nine-ten called the clock
after while. 'How time does fly!
distinctly remember striking the last
hour of 1908. Let me see! Some one
then wept with you at that bedside.
There was son and a daughter. All!
now I recall their faces-their gentle
ways-their loving words. Two years
latter there was another death-bed,
more walls and sobs, and 1 saw the
pall-bearers as they carried the daugh-
ter's body out of the house. It seems
as if the last blow must crush you,
and well remember saying to myself
that it wouldn't be long before you
we're called to co. i

becoming for the young and thoughtless
to while away the evening by dancing,
the day in more serious households
takes on semi-religious aspect. Dur
ing the evening there is prayer at the
family altar, and at midnight the
Waterman on the church tower blows
his horn to announce the birth of the
New Year.

almost all over France, and many of
tbe customs common with us at
Christmastide are transferred to New
Year. In many parts of that country
masquerading by children continues
for three days, the youngsters going
from house to house, singing and beg

Being and Doing.

1t is said, "To be good is the way
to be happy" but to be good and to
do good is the way to be happy. What
happy world this would be if all
would do the best thing for them
selves, if all realized that the only
way to get out of life is to put into
it, that the way to receive is to give,
and the only way to be helped is to
be helpful, and the way to gain life is
to lose it for others, and the way to
60 up is to go down, for "The meek
shall inherit the earth" "He that
humbleth himself shall be exalted" It
is petty to live for self, it is grand to
live for friends, but tits glorious to
live for mankind, and, as one has
said, 'The only way to work for God
is to work for man."

This prince of circumnavigators re-
calls some startling incidents. When
his steamer was outward bound on
one occasion girl passenger in the
Storage jumped overheard Another
passenger, who was leaning over the
stern, saw her come by and was at
once impressed with the idea that the
last thing to do was to create panic.
Instead of at once raising an alarm,
he walked quietly along. to the bridge
and said, "There's woman in the
water"
All this time the vessel had been
blowing along at IA knots. The
woman was some miles astern before
The ship could be stopped. The YES
sci was put about in the expectation
Of finding the girl, and, just as hope
was being abandoned she was sighted
floating on the water, face upward. A
professional swimmer went after her
and both were picked up. The girl

she had saved herself by keeping her
hands below water.
Another incident which Capt. Green
street recalls is a gallant rescue ef-
fected. by Dan Pearce, steward in his
steamer. A woman went overheard in
region where sharks might be ex-
pected. But Dan, on being Informed
of the fact, simply said: I'm after
her" Running aft, he leaped over
the stern, shouting: "Heave us
life buoy" This was done, and with
it he swan along the wake of the
ship till he came to the woman. Then
he got behind her and pulled her be-
meath the water. AS she rose he
clapped the life buoy over her head
Capt. Greenstreet, meantime, had
brought his ship around and lowered
a boat, and both were picked up.
/ When he came on board Pierce was
asked how he knew he would be
picked up. "Captain," replied Pearce,
II knew you would find me- You've
done it before" 1T was" says Capt.
Greenstreet, "the finest thing I have

When the Valid Nord painting, in the

it was contended that its 5000 square
feet made it the largest painting in

the palace at Wurzburg, painted in
1753, covering space of about 5, 400
square feet, was probably forgotten
