much of the finest and best things is

in the Vale. of Avoca?
We'll. old Michael O'Houlahan was
walking in the Vale of Avoca one hot
afternoon and he came to n spring. 1t
was crystal pure. The sand 1t bubbled
out OF was as white as snow Rainbow
mists hung over It In the sunshine.
odd Michael knelt down and took a
drink, and then, feeling remarkably re-
freshea, he turned 9omeward. Though
he didn t know IL, the spring In the
Vale of AVoca was the real Fountain
of Youth. and 1t had lifted 30 years
from his bent shoulders and he was an
out-stepping handsome lad again. SO.
of course. when he got in the house
his wife dodn't know him. lie looked
In the glass at himself. cut n caper.
and then he said:
'Shure. Kathleen, twas The blessed

again. Run, darlint. run for yer life.
Ye can't miss 1t for the rainbow mists
that Loaf above 1t. It'll take your fat
away. and yer lameness. and when ye
come back you'll be the Kathleen |
knowed back In the siyenties.'
so Kathleen ran, and Michael lit
his pipe and waited for her. But she
didn't come back. lie waited and wait
ed. Then, on towards dusk, he hurried
to the vale.
mo Kathleen did he see anywhere.
but the wall of Il babes voice weep
ing brought him through the dark to
the spring. and sitting there on the
grass was a little girl baby crying as
if her heart would break.
What's happened ye. acushla?'
says Michael.

child, wringing her hands

Like Them as Thnu Are

It is a funny thing that most peo-
pie at times are filled with a strong
conviction that the rest Of the world
are all wrong. and that they alone are
right.
Most CT us are apt to be hard on
people who do not do Just what we
think they ought to, forgetting that
every person is born different, grows
up different. and probably remains
different all through life.
1t is easy to criticise. bat we must
not forget that to other people we
may be making almost as great a mess
in a different way, p~erhaps-of our
own lives.
SO, instead of talking over other
peoples strayings from the path and
expecting them 10 do impossibilities,
1t would surely be better to try to APP
preciate our friends as they are and
believe the righteousness of their mo
tives. however things may go awry.-

Telling the Time in Eqypt.

The working of the oriental mind
was delightfully."- illustrated in a story
which Prof. Turner told the Math-
ematical association at London. He
had been spending the Christmas va
cation in Egypt to supervise the cree
ton Of a telescope at Helouan. Capt.
Lyons, who was in charge of the in
strumeut. said that he had found that
at noon every day a gun was fired and
was anxious to know how the system
worked.
Accordingly he interviewed the
gunner and asked how he knew when
to give the signal. "Oh. ! look at my
watch" said the official. And how
do you correct your watch?" asked
he captain. Il take it to the maker
In Cairo and he tells me the error. "
Forthwith Capt. Lyons interviewed
me matchmaker and asked him how
he checked the error of the watch. 81

SENDS TEACHERS TO PUPILS
Italy RsVsrsss tho Order of Things
80 That Et-eztlsr Msy c.
S..4s&d.

italy's recent plan to educate her
mountain folk Is already In operation
according to the Rome correspondent
OF the New York Sun. As the shop.
herds OF the Abruzzi could not be
brought to school. teachers were sent
to them. The percentage OF illitorater
among the inhabitants of the Abruzzi
has always been very high. and sta.
tisties show that despite the fact tina.
many schools have been opened In the
towns and villages within the last
five years. 6S per cent. of the popula-
ton is still illiterate.
Some members of the board of edu.
cation feared that the general spread
OF education among the p~easantry
would tend to a decline OF religious
faith. Others put forth the theory
that the inhabitants of the Abruzzi
had been ignorant and unlettered for
centuries. and consequently had lost
the aptitude to learn.
Prof. Emidio A|gostinoni discovered
the real cause. lie noticed that the
By iillitlll ONilOblH Ill lllt LOW lis anu
villages were not we'll attended. not
because the boys were not willing to
60 TO them, but because they could
not. The majority of the inhabitants
of the Abruz2i are shepherds. and
spend nine months ont of every year
In the mountains. living in huts and
tending their nocks.
Prof. Agostinoni suggested TO the
ministry OF public instruction the plan
which has now been adopted as an ex-
pertinent.
Instead of having schools with teach
ers and empty benches, why not send
the teachers up TO the mountains
where the boys are. aud hold classes
there2
The plan pleased some influential
members of the board of education.
and u teachers we're furnished
with horses and instructed to ride out
every day and beat the country for pn-
pills. Wherever they found boys or
men willing to learn, they were TO stop
and teach.
The ID travelling teachers have their
hands full, as, to their great surprise,
they found that the shepherds, young
and old, are not only willing to learn
to read and write, but that they are
very quick and intelligent.-Youth's

Where de Drew the Line.

In a western Kentucky town Ben
Watson had saved the life of Myra
Underhill. Miss Underhill had been
overturned IN a creek with a swift cur
rent, and the act Of young Watson
was n very heroic one. lie had saved
the life of the girl after she was sink
ing for the third time, and he had
barely strength to pull himself and the
young woman to shallow water.
The news soon spread and Ben Wat
son was hailed as the real, live hero
of the village.
Aunt Tabby Wilson. the Oldest wom-
an in the village, mother of the little
colony. was loud in praise of the hero
ism of the young man and at once de-
clared that Ben and Myra must get
married. Ben saved Myra's life" she
said, and now they must marry and
be happy eve afterward. Just as they
do it in the story books"
But Ben demurrcd. The arrange
ment did not suit him.
why not marry Myry. Benz" said
the old lady. She is yours. and we
must have a wedding"
shes a nice girl, all right" replied
Ben, but | don't think we oughter
marry. Seems to me- he went on. Il

The Sting of Inqratltude.

A young physician in the East side.
New York city. spends much time in
charitable practice. In fact. he some
times gives to a poor patient enough
money to pay for prescriptions. I'm
not getting rich" he explains. but
I simply can't see them suffer for
medicines that may put them on their
feet again"
Not many days ago the doctor had
occasion to visit a oma who occu-
pied one small tenement room with
her three children. After making out
a prescription be gave her two dol
lars. telling her to buy the medicine
and to use the change for needed
food. On the following day. as he was
about to enter the tenement for a sec
ond call he met the ~ten-year-old
daughter of the patient.
How Is your mother?" he inquired
of the child.
"Oh. she's all well" was the an
sWer. "She took that two dollars and
got a real doctor"

MAI TRIPLE PLAY
SENSATIONAL PASSAGE IN BASE.
BALL history.
You May Have other Ideas. But All
VIII Agree That the incidents De-
scrlbed Must Have Been
Worth Soelne.


The most sensational play ever
made? Every fan will give u different
answer to this question. Some will
say that Chase made It when he saved
II game by racing into the middle OF
the diamond OF a pop ny, reaching the
ball when 1t WAS only IA few inches
from the grass. ED. Walsh, the Chi.
cago White Sox pitcher, thinks 1t was
made at Detroit two years ago.
1t happened In the game In which
Walsh broke the Detroit hoodoo. The
Tigers had beaten Walsh every tne
he faced them. They regarded him
as their lawful prey, The game was
played in Detroit, and Mullin, who
started the season with II straight vic
tories for the Tigers, was slated to
pitch against Walsh.
Early in the contest George Davis,
the veteran shortstop of the Chicago
club. secured the only hit made off
Nlullin, and it was enough TO win the
game. The ball. driven down the first
base line into right field, struck a fire
hose lying in the grass and bounded
into the bleachers for a home run
After hat Mullin was inyincibIe.
Toward the end of the game De
troit opened with the usual rally.
Bossman. Detroit's first baseman, lead
ing off in the last inning, smashed the
ball against the fence for a clean
triple. Dutch Schaefer drew a base
on balls. Schmidt. next at bat, gave
the hit-and-run sign and, with both
runners in motion, hit a hard bounder
down toward third base. where Tan
nehill of Chicago was playing. Tan
nehill made a perfect scoop and threw
the ball to the plate. 20 feet ahead of
Rossman. who, seeing that he was
caught, doubled back on the line,
hoping to dodge the tag long enough
10 allow Schaefer to reach third.
Sullivan raced down the line with
the ball, driving Rossman before him
Rossman Slipped and fell close to third
base and just as Sullivan tagged him
for the first out Schaefer slid TO third.
In the meantime Schmidt, a slow run
ner because of an injury to his ankle,
had rounded first base and was well
on his way 10 second. Sullivan
Strengthened up and whipped the ball
to Robe, who was covering second
base and calling for the throw.
AS Schmidt slid Robes arm came
down with a thump and Schmidt made
the second out. The instant Sullivan
threw the ball Schaefer was on his
feet and dashing home from third
base. The plate had beer left unpro-
tected; Sullivan was down near third
base. Walsh. the pitcher, yelled for
the ball and raced Schaefer to the
rubber, closely followed by George
Davis. The two runners collided in
front of the plate.
Walsh was stunned and Schaefer
was thrown ten feet from the plate,
alighting on his shoulders. Davis, who
arrived about the same time, took the
throw and dropped the ball on the
struggling Tiger, completing the third
out and the most sensational triple
play ever made in the big league
