Justice Seabury found exactly con-

tween Donnelly and McArdle, that
the firm was solvent and that Don

His Christmas Dinner.-Sir Sam Fay,
the manager of the British Central
railway, who has replied somewhat
warmly to Lord Claud Hamilton's sug-
gestion that Englishmen aren't good
enough to manage English railways
tells a story of a country squire who
usually sent a poor neighbor, a turkey
at Christmas time. One Christmas he
forgot, and, meeting the man soon ar
ter, he said, jokingly: We'll, how did
you like that turkey sent you this
Christmas?"
"Oh, very much indeed, sir, thank
you." replied the man heartily. 1T was
a splendid bird!"
The squire gasped. "Wh-whats
that?"
II say it was a fine bird, sir" the
poor neighbor went on, though l very
nearly didn't get it at all"
How was that?" was the sQuire's
natural question.

Regarding the
Monument

The Monument is the sole product
of man which is expected to exist,
without change or repair, for all
time-beyond the memory that we
cherish in our hearts, which is only
as long as the span Of life. 1t may
help to form a record. but it is erect
ed as a tribute Of love to those who
have passed Ito that bourne from
whence no traveller ever returns" AS
such, let it be a thing Of beauty, not
dark and somber, but bright and
cheerful; not typifying earthly sor-
row, but symboliZing undying love.
And as architecture is brought to us
from the past by the tombs OF the
ancients, so let us pass on to those
in our steps, some worthy expression
of our conception of beauty.

BUTTER AND EGGS
Going or Coming

In 1875, or thirty-five years ago,
Bloomfield ]. Miller, the then act
nary or mathematician of the Mu-
tual Benefit Life Insurance Company,
worked out a plan by which holders
of life policies-policies the face OF
which, or the principal sum-are ohyi
payable at death or age of 96-could
convert them into Endowments'
which means that the face would be
paid either at death or at gradually
decreasing age. For example, in l9Oo'
a policy for $4,000 on the ordinary
life plan, was issued to man ~
years of age. When issued, the com
pany agreed to pay the SlO,o"o at
death or age SO. The holder OF the
policy now has a written guarantee
from the company that if he lives to
be 6S, he can stop paying premiums
and take a paid up policy for the full
SO, 900. or if he lives to be I3, the
company will pay him $lO, llo'
Another man who took out $4,000 on
the 2O-pay life plan in 1900, now mas
q guarantee that he can have a pald
up policy for 10000 at the age OF
56. or l6 years from date OF issue, or
receive $1O,043 at the age of 6I. All
men who believe in Daniel Boone's
doctrine of the wisdom of catching
the coon agOing or coming should
ask for particulars as to how the
plan works. 1t can be applied to old
policies as well as new. Ask to be
shown. 1t is the ideal contract for
the man or woman who wants to pro-
tcct dependents while they are de-
pcndents and themselves should they
live to he old.

Donegal Farmer Accepts Loss OF SaV'

Nobody ever drove the fairies out of
Ireland, and nobody ever will, for that
matter. The Emerald Isle is sans snakes
but not sans the wee folk" for the
sturdy citizens of Donegal yet will re-
late the doings Of the sprites who re-
ward good and punish evil with quite
as much avidity as they did hundreds
of years ago.
The little folks, whom the more stolid
Britishers insist are but creatures OF
Celtic imagination are peculiar elves.
Few there are who have seen them, and
the few have done so only when the
moon was in the right phase or on
some holiday in the elfdom when, the
legend goes, the fairies are visible to
mortal eyes and even may be captured
if you but snip their shadows.

that they keep away the wicked ban

hiding place some $1,500 he had saved
as a preliminary to embarking upon
the sea of matrimony, he never once

warning from wee folk" that they did
not look kindly upon his suit.
The police, however, were less in
clined to the theory of eltish warning
and when young woman employed at
the McFaul household tried in neigh
boring village to cash some large bank
notes, she was arrested and convicted
of the theft.
The McFauls refuse to accept the
loss in other than philanthropic mood
and still believe the little folks of the
wood chose that manner of expressing
disapproval Of a marriage which would
bring no happiness to the family.

SUNSET ON THE NILE
Rowers Chant WeirdIy as They Tug at
Oars.

AS we sat on the deck, beneath the
minaret of the mosque, the skies
slowly turned from orange to lilac
and purple of night, throwing
strange pink light over the city's
buildings, writes Archie Bell, in the
Cleveland Plain Dealer. The minosa
trees and date palms became black
and great white cranes, seemingly
knowing that their wings had an ap-
propriate background, circles over our
heads, over the deep azure river and
over the many white-sailed dohabe-
abs that were floating along in the
breezeless night, propelled by rowers
who were chanting weirdly as they
tugged at the oars.
Dimly. we could see the black
draped figures of numberless women
approach the rivers brink and we
know that the splashes in the water
were caused by the dropping of their
heavy jugs, which they twirl around
till they are filled, after which they
raise them laboriously to their heads
and then skip up the banks and dis
appear in the darkness of the night.
The sounds of the city ceased and
all was quiet. All but the plaintive
lay of the piper who must have been
somewhere not far off on the bank OF
the river. 1t seemed that he was
playing the love song of Larbi of BENZ
Mora. 1t was mOnotonOus and drowsy
and invoked sleep. In the morning
before dawn l heard the boys pulling
the stake near my window. l had
fallen asleep to native music. and now
| was awakened by their song. AS
we started up the river, the clarion
call of the muezZin rang out from the
minaret. For good MOhammedans 1t
means that new day had begun-but
for infidel Americans, there were sew
eral additional hours Of sleep.
