In fact. he was about TERED out when
the decision was made and the enthu-
siam OF his friends had called upon
him for almost superhuman efforts So
he was too weary to speak from the
rostrum as he desired.
But a friend rose to take Bells place.
and fitly described the members feel
ings in the following story:
Out n one of the counties of this
state there was in July a big colored
camp meeting at which many brothers
and sisters got religion On baptizing
day there were ducked in a pond near
the church and each one as he rose
expressed his happiness in the regener-
alton by exclaiming "Hallelujah!" or
Glory" or some similar saying, un-
til the list of rejoicing adjectives WAS
exhausted
At least, so thought one woman who
was much worried as to how she would
aptly express her feelings when she
waded ashore. Down she went into
the pond: and as she gathered up her
wet skirts on the bank she raised her
hands high and shouted to the assem-
bled congregations:
Christmas presents for all"
That is just the way Mr.. Bell feels
now. But he cannot find words to ex.
press fittingly his feelings; so like the
old woman he. through me, oxclatme

Sword Etiquette in Japan.

IN Japan. until within recent times,
the sword was considered a badge
Of the aristocracy. The etiquette that
regulated the wearing Of the long and
the short sword was expressed in a
number of minute rules.
The most trivial breach of these
minute observances was often the
cause of murderous brawls and dread
full reprisals. To touch another's weap-
on or to come into collision with the
sheath was a dire offense, and to enter
"A friends house without leaving the
sword outside was a breach of friend
ship. He whose position justified the
accompaniment of an attendant invari-
ably left the sword in his charge at
the entrance, or if he were alone it
was usually laid down at the entrance.
IL removed inside this was invariably
done by the hosts servants; and 1t was
not touched by the bare hand. but with
a silk napkin kept for the purpose.

but not to the full length unless the
owner pressed his guest to do SO, when.
with much apology, the sword was en-
tirely drawn and held away from the
other persons present. After being ad-
mired 1t would be carefully wiped with
special cloth, sheathed and returned
to the owner as before.
The short sword was retained in the
girdle. but at long visit both host
and guest laid it aside.

Tiny Republics.

MANY Americans are of the impress
A'> sion that Monaco is the smallest
independent state in Europe. but as
matter of fact there are three states
that are still smaller. 1t is also
matter of common belief that France,
Switzerland and Portugal are the only
republics in Europe. whereas there are
two others-the republics of Andorra
and San Marino. These republics and
the principality of Liechtenstein are all
smaller in area than Monaco, and all
claim to be autonomous and independ-
ent.
Liechtenstein Is crowded in between
Austria and Switzerland. Formerly it
had a tiny army of it's own, but this
force was abolished for fear some one
might desire to fight with it," Aus
tria keeps a protecting eye on Liech-
tenstein. while France performs a like
office for Andorra, situated in the east
ern Pyrenees. San Marino, however,
looks after her own territory, thirty
three square miles. without foreign aid.
The people of this little state are as
proud of its history and enlightened
institutions as republicans anywhere.
San Marino has an army of 1.100 men,
and these have been found amply suf-
ficient to insure its independence.
