"At any rate, your faith in me

to put me out Of your life tonight
for a mere shadowy fear that will
prove to have no substance"
She sat there, toying with a jew
eled chain about her throat and
looking curiously at some new ar
rivals.
"Why, john" she said, forgetting
his tender love speech and all-im-
portant question, "those people must
be stopping between trains. / never
saw a baby out at this time of the
night"
Possibly not" he answered indif-
ferently.
"Poor little womanl She can't

so. l believe that 1 will offer to
hold it. 1t will be a good oppor-
tunity to try working out your pet
theory that a woman is never so
happy as when she is serving men or
children"
He smiled as she rose and with
her characteristic grace and charm
asked if she might hold the baby
for a little time.
Her tall slender figure in its SHIN
meGing white gown, her head bent
little over the laughing baby
reaching his dimpled hands for the
elusive gold tassel over the girls
ear made a charming picture to the
man who waited for them.
"Watch out, Helen, he'll tear that
gold lace on your gown p he warned,
but Helen only laughed at him over
the little bald head.
"Isn't he dear? Isn't he little and
soft and clinging? Am 1 holding
him right so that 1 won't hurt his
back or the soft spot in his head? I

PUTTING HIS FOOT IN 1T.

A local preacher who was in the
habit of taking his wife with him
to his preaching appointments said,
on arrival at the chapel, ''My dear,
you go in there; you will be all
right. I must go round to the YES
try" u
In the vestibule the wife was met
by a kind hearted steward, who, aft
er giving her a hearty welcome and
a hymn book, conducted her to a
comfortable seat.
At the close of the service the
same kind-hearted steward gave her
a hearty shake of the hand, adding
how pleased he would be to see her
at the services each Sunday. Then,
whispering, he said: ''But, let me
tell you, we don't get duffer like
this in the pulpit every Sunday"

OLD CUSTOM REVIVED.

AS in the old days, when people
went out to tea, it is again quite
the smartest thing to take dainty
little bit of needlework in fascinat-
ing handbag. This fashion has been
set by Queen Mary, who has always
near her piece of knitting or other
stitchery. Since she was a girl her
majesty has always been the best and
most industrious worker in the royal
family. 1t is a matter Of comment
outside the royal circle that the dain-
ty bit of needlework which some
smart women take to their friends
houses never shows any advance,
though they adhere religiously to her
example.

VOICE THAT SOUNDED SWEET
Evidently Pat Was In the Mood TO
Answer "Yes" to the Question
Of tils General.

General Carter, who went to Tex
as in command Of the regulars sent
south for the maneuvers along the
Mexican border, tells this story Of
an old Irish soldier: The march had
been a long and tiresome one, and
as the bivouac was being made for
the night the captain noticed that
Pat was looking very much fatigued.
Thinking that a small drop Of whis-
key might do him good, the captain
called Pat aside and said: "Pat, will
you have wee sip of whisky" Pat
made no answer, but folded his arms
in a reverential manner and gazed
upward. The captain repeated the
question several times, but no an
swer from Pat, who stood silent and
motionless, gazing devoutly into the
sky. Finally the captain, taking
him by the shoulder and giving him
a vigorous shake, said; "Pat, why
don't you answerp l said, Pat, will
you have a drink of whiskyP' "
After looking around in consider
able establishment Pat replied: "And
is it yez, captainp Begorrah, l
thought it was an angel speakin' to
me" cosmopolitan Magazine.

The Power of Niagara Falls.

Amid all the excitement over
the conservation of the scenic
beauty of Niagara Falls it must
not be forgotten what a saving of
our coal supply the Harvesting of
this mighty cataract would mean.
The 372,8OO horse power now
developed at the falls is the
equivalent of 16, 776, 900 man pow
err working an eight-heur day, OBJ
more than the combined strength
of all ablebodied men in the
United States.
Under the Americana Canadian
treaty, promulgated by the two
nations to guard the scenic beauty
of the falls for all time, only So
900 cubic feet of water per second
out of total now of 240, 900 Gu
bic feet, may be diverted from the
Niagara river for power purposes.
But even with this restriction,
when the treaty goes into effect
the force conserved by falling
water will be equivalent of 3d.
$50, 900 men working the average
eight-hour day.
Stupendous although this saw
ing is, it is as nothing compared
to the full strength of the falls.
The volume of water that will be
permitted to run, so as to perpe-
tuate the beauty of the falls, is
estimated to represent 118. $3.50, 900
eight-hour man power or abo&E
$4,000, 900 more man power than
there are men, women and chill
dren in the United States and all
its possessions.

Usefulness Of a Shetland.

To some persons the suggestion
that the Shetland pony has any
particular use would be regarded
as an absurdity, yet thousands
have been taught by experience
that the Shetland is the most USE
full adjunct to the city, suburban
or farm home life. d
One of these rugged little fell
lows with his boy or girl driver or
rider will be able to do many err
rands which would require the
time of a grown person and a
horse; and a pair of Shetlands
hooked up to a little wagon will
do lot of such light work as is
common to home life, especially
in village and country.
A Shetland pony will road off
five or six miles an hour with ease
drawing a vehicle of proper
weight and proportions and il is
not difficult to estimate the prac-
tical value of the service that will
be rendered by one of these faith(
full little servants capable of doing
this.

Founder of the Jezree.ites.

From the London Chronicle.
The Jezreelites Of Gillingham. who have
once more come before the public, were
better known twenty years ago. The
founder of this strange sect was a cer-
tain James White. private in the 18th
Regiment, who on his convers. on took
the names of James Jershom zreel :
White gathered enthusiasts round him.
and like the early Christians the Jezreel-
ties had all things In common. 1t was a
principle of the sect that its members
were the first portion of the 144,OOJ twice
told who will receive Christ when He ap-
pears to reign upon the earth Shortly
after the foundat on of the sect Jezreel
and his followers commenced to build a
huge temple intended to hold 20 90 peO-
pie. hard by Chatham. Jezreel died In
1855. and the work was never completed,
but the temple, tenantless and bare sur
