The people of Moen needed an cleo.
tric plant, and a committee was ap-
pointed to see what could be done.
This committee was discouraged by
financial difficulties, and the matter

AS a result Of recently issued pub
locations dealing with the life and
character Of the late King Edward,
Queen Alexandra has decided to re-
Fise her original intention and allow
IN authorized" life of his majesty to
be published much earlier than was
Intended. The late king left all his
private paretain for publication as
seemed f1t to her, and these her ma
)esty has since gone through very

entrusted to a former friend of King
Edward.

Son of the flame of war in southeast

March 80, 1853. He was then II years
old. On Oct. 80 Of the same year he
arrived in Athens, and on the follow.
Ing day he took the oath and mounted
the throne. When the future king ar
rived in Athens, forty-nine years ago,
he was welcomed by little nation Of
, million people. He has more than
two million subjects now, and Greece
has progressed very creditably under
bis rulership. Though Greece has
been overtaken by severe political
storms during the past half century,
the throne of King George has never
pnce been seriously threatened.

The ChildIVho Fears the Dark

ago, and it had awakened all the old
memories Of bygone distresses.
I think it is we'll for every mother
who keeps a young servant to mention
the children's bedtime to any girl whom
often thoughtless tha cruel. and the
exciting stories told of bogies. giants
and COLLINS are seldom meant to do
more than raise a passing frenzy OF
admiration for the nurses gift Of tale
telling.
A piabolical Plot.
But nov and then one hears Of de-
liberate attempts to brighten little
children, attempts SO cruel that 1t is
really ard to believe that any woman
could be guilty OF them.
A friend of my own told me h fol-
lowing incident. which happened to
herself when she was 5 or s.
Her mother had gone out for thu eve
ming. and a nurse. newly engaged. was
left in full charge Of the little maid.
She was put to bed at the usual o
and bidde to go to sleep at once The
girl. who wished to spend a jovial hou
with a friend in the kitchen, conceived
the diabolical plot of dressing up a
dummy and setting 1t at the foot OF the
bed, placing it there while the poor lit
tile darling was lying in a "pretend''
sleep.
Saved BY . Big Brother.
After a short interval. during which
the room had been quite quiet. the
child. entirely unafraid of the dark.
turned on her pillow and looked round.
To her intense horror. she saw the ST.
lent. frightsome thing at the foot Of thu
bed.
Paralyzed with fear, n unable to
cry out. she lay there in a cold sweat
of terror for she does not know how
long. e q plying Providence in
tervened. and a big brother. drawn
mysteriously to imagine that something
was wrong in that particular room.
went in and discovered the w~ickedness.
My friend is now a woman Of 40, but
even yet the terror of that night some
times returns to her.
The probability is that IL the brother
had not been impelled to enter the room
the child would have been found either
dead or insane.
This is an extreme case, though
scarcely more blameable than a score
OF others which I myself have known
to be absolutely true: and to me it
seems that no cruelty to a child's body.
no beating or starving or oppression,
is to be compared for w~ickedness with
this cruelty to the tender and sensitive
] mind.

From the Pueblo chieftain.

GAOttA SAAS . wv
All my life l nave been hear sorry
Even as q tiny maid of 5 or 6 l would
be awake for hours saying rhymes turn
and turn about with a sister two years
older than myself who was afraid to be
left alone in the creeping shadows.
mo now that I have been these
many years auntie to quite a large
number OF little folks. my sympathy
has grown and grown in this respect.
and / have come to feel that no other
fear Is quite so real to a child as this
fear of the dark. and no other form
of cruelty quite SO harsh as that which
refuses to take any notice of the little
ones terror.
Those Dreadful Bears.
I know a lad. now a high spirited
and plucky %schoolboy Of IL. who, during
all the earliest years Of his life, was
extremely timid and imaginative Of all
sorts of evils.
Much did his mother regret the day
when first he heard the wonderful story
of h big bear. the little bear and the
middle sized bear, for there came a
time when 1t was necessary night af-
ter night to make what seemed to him
a thorough investigation of every cor
ner of the bedroom. in order to assure
him that there were no proWlinR AMI
mails anywhere within reach.
1t was only as this dear little man
grew into knowledge that he grew out
of fear, until now he is brave Of the
brave. and always ready to play the
part OF comforter to a younger child
who fears as he once feared.
Mothers Way.
His mother a what I thought a
lovely way Of dealing with him. She
would talk to him soothingly at times
when he was not afraid. about Gods
dark" and would tell him how the
lambs and birds and little long legged
baby horses all loved the dark, feeling
so safe and warm in their different
beds. and knowing that the loving
angels. who take care of all baby
things. never go to sleep. but watch
through every bit Of the night.
He has grown a little out Of the angel
idea now. as is natural for a game low
ng boy of IL, but only a night or two
ago. when his mother gave him the
fnal tuckup and good night kiss, and
said. laughingly, to him
Not afraid of the dark. now, SON.
ME, eh?" He answered merrily: mo
mother. I'm we'll guarded. I've got two
angels at my head and a hot water bot
tie at my feet" He had seen the Joke
