Just ten years ago woman clothed In rags
dirty, tanned, almost black by exposure and at
deaths door with fatigue staggered to the court
yard of the China Inland Mission house at Ia
chienlu, writes Ruth Nicely in the Living Church.
When strength enough for speech returned she
told her story. 1t Dr. Susie Carsons Rim
hart, the first woman missionary who ever pene-
trated the wilds Of Tibet and returned to tell the
story.
All the world knows the wonderful history of
the woman's homeward journey of $500 miles,
unprotected and alone. from the interior. near
the outskirts of Lhasa, where she buried her
baby beneath stone on the mountain side and
where her husband was later captured by hostile
natives and murdered.
Since that time only one group OF foreigners
has penetrated interior Tibet. This was the
band Of Engllshmen who reached and invaded
the sacred city under the command Of Colonel
Younghusband. Since the unsuccessful ending
Of that expedition Lhasa and interior Tibet have
again been closed to the outside world won

dades Palace Of Lisbon for comparatively mod
est dwelling at Richmond, she and the duchess
met. Between the two women. each well ac-
quainted with the others msfortunes, mutual
liking sprang up.
During their confab the duchess told her royal
listener that trying to shoulder other peoples
troubles had enabled her to Danish her own from
her mind. Queen Amelia was rather struck with
this idea and not long in putting 1t into prac-
tice. Apparently, the duchess scheme has made
good At any rate. the queen has given it a good
trial. for hardly week has passed that she has
not visited q hospital, opened a bazaar or some
thing Of the sort. Quite recently she went to the
Crystal Palace and, on behalf Of the r. s. p c. A.,
presented the prizes won by children for essays
written on kindness to animals She is regular
visitor at the Richmond hospital and the Roman
Catholic hospital OF Saint Elizabeth and Saint
John in Saint Johns Wood. During one OF her
visits she was taken to see the baby OF the hos
pital, pretty little girl six years old and great
pet with everybody. The queen kissed the child
and after talking to her for little while, dis
covered that something was worrying her. So
she asked the reason and found that bunch OF
lilies that had been ordered from the florist for
the baby to present to her had not arrived.
Poor little mte," said the queen, that's too
bad. Never mind, II you win send them to me
at Richmond. will promise to wear them at din
ner tonight"

"There!" she exclaimed. There's
evidence OF the truth of what said.
Don't be foolish! Did you ever speak
to me in that way before we were
married."

mitted.
''Then." she said, reproachingly,
my slightest wish was law; then you

anxious to please me, and were ever
on the watch to do some little favor

little out Of his reach!"
"Certainly.' she answered.; but

"Of course"
"But does he continue jumping after
he has got it," tss
Certainly not. There's no need of

WELL" he said. as he turned to. his
paper again, you're my apple; and

Senses Of Plants.

The sense most developed IN plants
is that of sight, which enables them to
see light but not to distinguish objects.
This sense limitation is found among
many living creatures, such as the
earthworm, oyster, and coral. ETC..
which possess no localized visual or
gan, but give proof Of their luminous
Impressions by the contractions that
they manifest when exposed to a ray
of sunshine. Similarly, 1t Is easy to
gauge the influence Of light on plants.
Cultivate a plant in room with
window only on one side and its stalks
In growing will incline toward the
source OF light. Psychologists explain
this by suggesting that the side to the
dark grows more quickly than that ex-
posed to the light. There remains.
however, the fact that the plant has
reacted to the light, of whose effect It
was conscious.
A sense common to many plants Is
that of touch OF this the most illus
trative example is, as its name i'm
plies, the sensitive plant. Another
Leaf, responsive to the touch, Is the
catch-fly, whose two halves close down
one upon the other by means OF .
central hinge.-Harper's Weekly.

Children Natural Born Llars.

In sermon on the vigilance OF par
ents. at the Catholic Church of the
Assumption in Cranberry street, Rev.
William ]. Donaldson, the rector, said.
among other things that parents were
too prone too believe that their chill
dren could tell only the truth, and.
were incapable Of telling falsehood.
He said that as matter OF fact that
most little children were natural born
liars.
please don't believe" he told the
many parents Of his congregation, ALI
of the tales Of i'll treatment your little.
folks bring home from school. Doubt
less each one of you think that your
own particular youngster is marvel Of
innocence, little George Washington.
whose statements must be true. and
straightway you shower criticism on,
very hard working, patient teachers
who try to correct him. deplore the
endency of parents to give credence to
all child may say, when as a matter
Of fact, little children are natural born
liars."-Brooklyn Eagle. Ia

found one Of the Roman statues
gone and of the other one only the
