WOMAN HAD TRUE CHARITY
Refusal to Judge Others Harshly
Proves Possession of the Highest
Christian Character.

There died short time ago w0n-
an who never occupied, or asplred to
occupy, a conspicuous position in the
world but who was beloved by all who
knew her. The secret of her charm
lay in her charity-nOt the charity of
almsgiving, although she was always
openhanded to those In need-but the
broader charity that consists in leni-
ency toward the frailties of others.
When gossip, even gossip not unduly
harsh, asSaiIed man or woman she In
variably met it with the one response:
"Well, now, maybe If you knew all
about the case you'd find the poor man
Tor woman) wasn't so much to blame
after ALL"
What an insight into a Christian
character that remark conveys. And
what q lesson in Christian charity 1t
teaches. It is the Ten Commandments
in a single sentence. Philosopher or
tehOlOgian never uttered q more beau
tiful thought for mankind to ponder
over. Epigram maker never directed
more perfect shaft.
What a different world it would be
if everyone judged the worlds people
that way.-YOungstown Telegram.

World Tak;nu to Baseball.

Strong interest in baseball is devel-
oping in the Central American repub-
lie of Honduras. At first the game
interested only foreign residents in
some of the towns, but now it is re-
ported games between natives in the
town of San Pedro Sula are we'll at
tended and arouse genuine enthusiasm
among Honduras spectators The
American national sport seems to be
making a name for itself all over the
world, and many of the cities of Asia
patrOnize 1t generously. In Kobe,
Japan, there is strong baseball wing
connected with the Cricket club there.
and matches with visiting teams of
Cinnamon take place frequently.

Decoy Duck Quacks and Swims

When Amos c. Vaughan of Anadar-
kO. Okla, goes duck shooting he takes
with him Il set Of his mechanical de-
cOys and places them in the water in
front of his blind. Before doing so,
however, he winds them up, notes Pop
ular Science Monthly. When flock of
wild ducks appears his decoys begin
to swim about and Quack as if they
were alive. The result is that the in
ventOr goes home with a full bag, for
no wild duck can resist the mechanical
WileS of his decOy.
The decOy is composed of two parts,
bottom and top, which can be opened
for cleaning and repairing. A clock
work mechanism drives the propeller
and also the sound record of the pho.
nograph. AS the mechanism is set in
action the stylus, or needle, as well as
the propeller is operated. A cylinder
or disk is used for the record. A con-
trolling cam renders the needle mop
erative at certain intervals, SO that the
calls or cries are sounded intermittent
ly. Who makes the photographic rec
ord of the quack that leads the duck to
it's doom? We are baffled.

Explosive Property of Dust.

The inflammability or explosive
property of the dust is matter of de-
gree, depending on purity, fineness,
dryress, quantity, volume of air and
many other conditions. Coal dust in
creases the violence of an explosion
when present with a small percentage
of firedamp, and under certain condi-
lions it is capable of initiating and eX-
tending an explosion by itself. In the
opinion of A. NJ. Henshaw, as given IN
royal commission evidence, coal-dust
explosions are generally the result OF
irregularity or carelessness in the use
of explosives or safety lamps. If the
ignition of fredamp thus caused can
be prevented he thinks the dangers OF
coal-dust will he minimiZed.

He turned out of Eppingham into
the woods Eppingham was the last
station on the line, beyond it stretched
great eXpanse of state forest. 1t
was early June, and summer was call
ing. Frank could have spent the whole
summer in camp without Il Qualm.
He resolved to strike the trail on the
chance of picking up summer work at
q club or bungalow.
He had gone about n mile when he
was startled to hear screams from the
bend of the trail. A moment later
there appeared a young woman, mount
ed on bay horse, which was evidently
running away with her. She was hold
ing on for dear life, and the horse had
a frightened look; also his ears lay
flat back against his head.
Frank did not hesitated an instant.
He leaped forward and planted HIM
sci in the middle of the roadway. As
the horse reared he caught at the
bride. 1t dragged him several yards
and stopped putting and snorting. Still
holding the bride. Frank extended his
hand to the frightened girl, who col
lapsed in n heap upon the ground be-
fore him.
''It was bear frightened my horse,
she gasped. HE has never run away
with me before"
1t was some minutes before she was
able TO stand on her feet, and then she
was trembling all over. Frank thought
he had never seen such a pretty girl
before.
81 don't know how to thank you
enough" she said. Father hates &c
have me go riding by myself. but l al
ways laughed at him. [ shall know
better in the future"
''You must let me see you home, y
said Frank CALAMITY.
81 can't ride POlyphemus again"
IF YOU like, I'll lead him home for
you" said Frank.
The suggestion proved agreeable
and, as the girl was at length recov-
ering from her fright, they set of
along the road together, Frank hold
ing the bride and the girl at his side
AS they chatted gaily. all his past life
