EDUCATION A JEWEL.

There is saying true to all mankind
That Education forms the common mind,
And knowledge whereso'er it be attained
Is far the greatest jewel ever gained.
Give to the youth in tender years of life
wealth of knowledge, and in daily strife
He's well equipped to conquer every foe
And gain success wherever he may go.

cry, too, and running to their horses
threw themselves into the saddle end
galloped off. The judge midway OF
the meadow roared out furious pro-
test but the mounted men turned into
the highroad and vanished from
sight, and the judges shaking legs
bore him swiftly in the direction Of
the gaunt figure on the ground.
Mahaffy struggled to rise, for he was
hearing his friends voice now, the
voice of utter anguish, calling his
name. At last painful effort brought
him to his knees. He saw the judge
clothed principally in a gaily colored
=, bed quilt, hatless and shoeless, his
face sodden and bleary from his
nights debauch. Mahaffy stood erect
and staggered toward him. his hand
over his wound, his features drawn
and livid, then with a cry he dropped
at his friends feet.
Solomon! Solomon" And the judge
knelt beside him.
It's all right, Price; 1 kept your
appointment" whispered Mahaffy; a
bloody spume gathering on his lips,
and he stared up at his friend with
CLASSY eyes.
In very shame the judge hid his face
in his hands, while sobs shook him.
"Solomon-Solomon, why did you
do this?" he cried miserably.
The harsh lines on the dying mans
face erased themselves.
You're the only friend I've known
in twenty years Of loneliness, Price.
I've loved you like a brother" ne
painted, with a pause between each
word.
Again the judge buried his face in
his hands.
II know it, Solomon-I know it," he
moaned wretchedly.
Price, you are still q man to be
reckoned with. There's the boy; take
your place for his sake and keep it

II will-by God, will" gasped the
Judge. You hear me? You hear me,
Solomon? BY Gods good help, will"

"Yes!" cried the judge. Solomon,
the world is changing for u.s."
For me most of ALL" murmured
Mahaffy, and there was a bleak in
stant when the judges ashen counte-
nance held the full pathos Of age and
failure. Remember your oath, Price" !"
gasped the dying man. A moment Of
silence succeeded. Mahaffy's eyes
closed, then the heavy lids slid back.
He looked up at the judge while the
harsh lines. of his sour old face soft
ened wonderfully. kiss me, Price" he
whispered, and as the Judge bent to
touch him on the brow, the softened
lines fixed themselves in death, while
on his lips fingered a smile that was
neither bitter nor sneering.

tied at the front gate Of a house near
by. Their equipments indicated that
they were officers horses. Some Of
my men went into the house to search
for the riders. An inviting meal was
spread upon the table, but the guests
were invisible. The men went up
stairs to search, and came down with
three officers. Still a fourth was miss
ing. SO ordered them to go back and
find the lost sheep. They went.
The upper story was dark and the
house unfinished. No answer was
made to the demand for the missing
man to come down. At last one Of the
men concluded that q shot In the dark
would do no harm, and fired his pis-
tol. The flash lighted up the darkness
and caused the refugee to change his
position. There was no floor in the
attic to cover the ceiling. and as the
stepped on 1t the ceiling caved in.
With a crash he came down with a
pile of mortar on the heads Of my men.
They picked him up and brushed him
of. These four officers were not
part of the picket guard. They had
ridden from camp for an outing, and
were to take lunch with the wife Of
q Union man. We arrived just In
time to get share of 1t. One Of the

IN THRIFTY BELGIUM.
Land Where There Are Practically No
Paupers.

Lana Where Inorc Are fractically NO
Paupers.
Across marrow sea from England
is little country, which though Dense
ly populated, has practically no pau
pers, nor do the people emigrate. This
is thrifty Belgium. where there is
thrift of the individual, thrift of the
family, cooperative thrift, national
thrift, and prosperity in the face Of the
keenest competition Of its powerful
neighbors, England, France and Ger
many.
The government, instead Of paying
old age pensions and dispensing char
ity, has machinery for the encourage
ment of thrift and thereby for the
prevention Of dependence. It pays the
individual interest on his savings, 1t
insures his life and 1t will give him
an annuity If he saves to pay for It,
In the government savings bank de-
posits may be made in every postoffice
Of the kingdom and in all the branches
Of the national bank. The minimum
deposit Is one franc. There is no max
imum. The government provides in
special way for those who cannot
put aside 30 large a sum as franc at
q time. It authorizes smaller depos-
its by postage stamps In order to en-
courage school children, farm laborers
and the like; and rural postmen carry
with them the necessary forms for
this purpose, and~lrge the public to
make use Of the savings bank In this
way.
Life annuities may be contracted for
at all branches Of the savings bank, at
all branches Of the national bank, at
all postoffices. aid at the offices of the
tax receivers. The minimum payment
that may be made is one franc, and
the smallest annuity paid by the fund
is one franc, while the largest is 1000
francs. The annuities become paya-
BILE at the end Of each completed year
from the age Of so to 65.
In addition to the annuity fund
there is a government insurance fund,
the management of which is under
government guarantee. Life or en-
dowment policies may be contracted
for, the latter payable at the end OF
10, Is, 20. or 25 years, or for period
ending at the ages Of IS, 80 or IS.
This policy has lnstilled ideas Of
thrift in the minds Of the school chill
dren, 1t has driven thrift into the
household where the income Of the
husband, or of wife and husband COM
bined. is rarely spent, and in most
cases a liberal margin is left for the
future. The people live within their
incomes. "Our income" they say, "is
so much a year; we must live within
1t and put away something for our
old days."
Among English speaking people.
this is the habit: I'VE must have this
and that and go here and there, and
so we must bring our income up to
that mark at all hazards"
But the Belgian household enjoys
contentment and awaits with patience
larger income before buying this
and that and before going here and
there; and they do not try to keep
the pace set by those whose means
are greater. The observer sees on ev-
cry hand men and women, still with
the freshness Of youth, who have re-
tired from active. bread winning work
and are enjoying life on the capital
saved by reasonable economy. They
have lived wisely-neither slaves nor
prodigals-and their declining years
are provided for.
