Pennsylvania Neighborliness.
rom the Philadelphia Record.

From the philadelphia Record-
Neighborliness is one of the good quail
ties Of the people of Greenwood, town
ship, Columbia county. About fifty men
and women of the township recently
gathered at the home of the Misses 'Ag-
mes and Mary Heacock, aged eighty-four
and eighty years. respectively, and held
a wood-cutting bee. There were twenty
three men in the party and every one OF
them pitched in with a vim to lay in
supply of firewood for the aged ladies'
The men of the party Immediately started
for. the woods while the ladies. who had
all brought baskets loaded with edfbies,
repaired to the house and proceeded 20
prepare a dinner. While some OF the
men were chopping down trees others
were putting up a circular saw and at
taching it to a gasoline engine. In this
manner the work was quickly accom-
plished and the saw was soon running
full blast. Enough wood was stored ana
piled up to last for more than year.
Another surprise in store was brought to
light when the baskets which the women
had brought along were opened. Every
thing that the old ladies could POSSIBLY
be in need of was there, and more. too.

Why the King Failed.

The King of Syria had made. his. plans
with great craft and secrecy, but there
was one omission that spoiled all his
work. He left God out Of account. Every
precaution was taken against listeners
who had not been asked to the council
chamber. But he did not realize that no
word spoken there could be hidden from
God. His ignorance of God led TO his
undoing Remembrance of. God. should
not only keep men from making evil
plans, but should lead them to make
righteous plans in which God can be in
vited to take part. When men work
with God they are invincible. But when
they work without Him their work de-
serves to come to nothing.
Let it be remembered that God promises
to bring those who trust Him safely
through the dangers that. threaten them.
Sometimes the deliverance is given them
by warding off the danger entirely: again
God permits them to go through the
danger. but He sees. that they are not
harmed by it. He has his own wax or
delivering and that way Is the best way.
Yet always he delivers: that Is the point
to be remembered. He delivered the .klnS
of Israel by sending him warning. he
once delivered home missionary VINO
was lost in a blizzard by showing the
missionaries horse how to find the near
est shelter. He has delivered you times
without number. Stop and think OF the
times, and praise Him for His goodness.

A Thespian Of the

RED MOORE, the Atlantic City

Washington the other day to

to be in the same smoking COM

used to be a manager Of road companies,
and he uncoiled narrative Of one of
his road experiences as the train sped
this way.
"Once / managed on the road a roper

But, as say he wasn't that type.
He was one OF the kertiop dilis that
break out all Of sudden. He'd shin
on board the aqua vehicle and perch on it
for months at stretch, generally when
he wasn't working; and the way he
swell up and unravel language on any
body thatd ask him to have one during
those periods was something appainns'

1t is easy to sympathize With the
prophets frighte(ed servant II is. easy
to remember the times when one. has
been as frightened as he was when he
saw the invading hosts of the Syrtans.
Echoing his cry. many have asked in
terror, What shall l DOR The. answer
to the question is very simple, The first
thing to do is to tell God about the thing
that disauiets one. The second thing is
to do what He says. Try this the next
time anxiety comes and see what becomes
of the anxiety. ......
1t is certain that there is heavenly
host standing guard over every one OF
God children. Does any one reel that
he has not seen that host? Then there
is need that he make Elisha's prayer,
that his eyes may be opened. By faith
he can see the heavenly host of which

rope to help seat Napoleons son, the DUO
de Rechstadt, on the throne of France
But alas for the hopes of the Bonapartes.
On the very day the king left Borden
town the Due de Reichstadt died.
1t was not until 1897 that Bordentown
saw King Joseph again. Then he re-
turned to close up his affairs He was
broken in health and spirits ana per-
mission had been granted to him TO
make his home in Italy. There he was
to join his wife, who had been An IN
valid for many years and whom he had
not seen since 1S15.
He planned to keep Bonaparte House
and Bonaparte Park in the Bonaparte
family forever, but he died in 1874, ana
three years later the estate was sold. 1t
passed through one or two hands and
then began to decay.
While much must be attributed to the
accident of legislation, the prearranged
plans of Napoleon and Joseph, who had
agreed that in case flight from France
became necessary they should locate III
America between New York and Phila-
delphia. to inc within easy access OF
sponsiblc for the selection by Joseph
of his home in America. After Water
loo, it will be recalled, Joseph sailed from
Royan, near Bordeaux July %, 1915, on
the American brig Commerce. So COM
plete was his disguise as French gem
tleman of private life that the shrewd
Capt Messerney, the Swedish master of
the brig. was deceived, and Joseph and
his secretary, Maillard, his travelling
companion landed sa felv in New York.
Even after the capture and final de-
portation of his brother, Joseph still cher
ished the hope that the Little Corporal
might some day evade the watchful patrol
of the British and escape to America.
This hope and necessity for precaution
for himself. since his enemies in France
and Spain were still plotting thickly
against him, are said to have induced the
construction of the elaborate system Of
underground tunnels which have ever at
tached to the park the fascination OF
my stery and adventure. Parts of these
Iabyrinthine passagewayS are still eXtant.
These arc OF brick and show that the en-
tire system was carefully laid out.
