the air was crisp and cold. One OF the
members OF the party, charming young
woman, was escorted through The grounds
by alearned but absent-minded professor.
Suddenly two members oi the track team,
accoutred for their sport, passed.
"lt's dreadiullY cold," remarked the
young woman, with dainty shiver. as
she gazed after the runners, ITO be with

temptation OF the fourth dimension, was
attracted by the sound OF the girls voice.

The prosperity wave has struck West

burnt into coke for the Pittsburg steel
mills. Last month orders came 10 ad-
vertise for 600 more miners and helpers
and to open up the 2,OOO coke ovens at
Gary, w. Va, also, and ship 90 carloads

ington, formerly OF this county, is en-
pIoyed by the company TO teach the mi

A little girl, walking in New York with
her father, saw some workmen on the
top of building twenty stories high, and
she asked, "Papa, what are those boys
doing up there?" He replied that they
were not boys but men who looked like
boys because they were so high. The
little girl medtated moment, then said,
solemnly, "They won't amount to much
when they get 10 heaven, will they ?"
The question gave the father food for
thought. AS we rise toward heaven, self
becomes smaller, until by and by, when
we reach the height OF heavenly character,
self will not amount 10 much.
