with key for a StaterOom, and to his surprise he was given the bridal cham Der, with all the modern improve ments It was the first time he had ever occupied a bridal chamber
 The through express train to New York was late. and it came thunder ing along at sixty miles an hour when It suddenly came to stop in the little village of N, where it was never known to stop before. The people came rushing out of the houses to find the cause, and watched the train of ten cars as it slowly backed to the station. A beautiful little girl of five summers was crossing the track with her doll in her arms when the train came along and the engineer saw no chance to save her life. and was backing the train and looking for her mangled body. When he nearly reached the station he came to a boy of IA who had the girl in his arms. The pilot of the engine had torn away most of her little blue dress, but she was unharm- ed her doll was cut in two. The en- gineer stopped the train and jumped to the ground where they stood, and with tears in his eyes said to the boy;
 ''Is she alive? Thank God!"
 The boy said: Yes, I got her just in time. Had it not been for my new shoes, which my mother calls the So- cial Corner shoes, which are so easy and elastic, I never could have saved her. These kind of shoes get you there every time.'
 The engineer, who was fond of chill dren, put a good roll of bills in the boys hand and jumped on his engine and was off for New York.
 Some of the bystanders heard the boy say: Wont my mother think more of the Social Corner than ever when she hears the news in the papers about the Socoal Corner shoes. It was a lucky thing for the kid that my mother belongs to the order"
 A Social Corner family was just sit ting down to supper when there came a soft rap at the door. A good looking boy of ten years stood there. apparent ly tired and friendless. He said he did not need anything to eat, as he had his supper with him, but would like to stay all night, as he had run away from home and wished to see same of the world. He had taken some of his mothers cake and had it nicely wrap ped in piece of newspaper, and as he was proud of his mothers cooking he undid his little package and the paper was a portion of the Social Corner page of The Norwich Bulletin, with the heading so familiar to the writers. He was asked if he knew anything about the Social Corner
 He said: Why, yes, my mother and sister belong to that order"
 He was made to eat a good supper and the lady of the house telephOned to his mother that her boy would be at home on the 9 o'clock train and to meet him at the station
 She said to the boy: My little run away, you are making the mistake of your life. Your poor mother is now crying and nearly crazy, looking for you. l will take you to the station and buy you Q ticket, and the conduc- tor will see that you get off the train at yo1r home Take tLis cake you did up for your trip to see the world, and keep it as souvenir. It was made by your mothers hands, and you need be thankful, as r know your mother will be, that you fell into the hands of Social Corner members
 There was 2 time when orders seem ed to be for men only, but now wom- en have their orders as well as the men, and I think the Social Corner one of their best orders.
 Yes, I think it pays to join orders. and I am glad that the women have orders of their own. which I find are not only interesting for them, but the men are subscribing for The Bulletin. just to see what the women are doing in their order.
 Worthy Lecturer. I will not take up any more of your time. Thanking you all for your kind attention. l close with best wishes for the Grange and the So- cial Corner Order
