KITTEN SAVES GIRLS LIFE

Out in California kitten saved little
12-year-old girl from probable death, says
Our Dumb Animals. The girl and the
kitten went for walk. After short
time the kitty returned alone and kept
walking up and down in front of the
girls mother crying pitifully. 1t was
trying to attract the attention of the
mother and every time it thought it sue
ceeded it would walk off and, not seeing
the mother follow, would return and cry
all the harder.
Finally the mother noticed the .per-
Torrance and decided to follow the little
creature the next time it repeated the
affair, as she thought it strange it should
act so.
The kitten led the way to the end of a
recreation pier, where the child was found
hanging head downward from large
spike in pile. She had fallen from the
pier and her clothing had caught on the
spike.
Her mother Immediately rescued her
but she was barely conscious. Had she
remained in the position five minutes
onger she would have been dead.

first sight of one of these signposts in

After the hour spent in the quiet at
mosphere of the Mission, it seemed al
most too abrupt change to go directly
b ack to modern Santa Barbara, so on
the way we stopped for stroll through
the Alameda, or park, which is very
beautiful, and which consists of ten
acres in the midst of Santa Barbara's
finest residential section. The graceful
pepper tree and stately palms, and he
riot of color in the flowers everywhere
were continual source of admiration.
We should not have considered our
visit complete without a sight of the
''PlaZa Del Mar" and Beach, for which
Santa Barbara is justly famous, so the
rest OF our afternoon was spent there,

of cold water for this resolve was sup
piled by Will, who remarked that we
would have to be multi-millionaires in

to me the most beautiful of all the Cali

The making was easy enough, begin

four needles she rlb-stitched for three
inches. Then just as in knitting

This was to have been continued for
ten inches with a ribbed strip at the
other end, but long before the band
was half finished the wool had run out
and a double quantity had to be got.
Thus the band cost something more
than a dollar merely for materials, not
to mention the time, which Of course

To Crochet Over Hairpin.

Maybe IL you have been doing
needlework or crochet long enough you
VIII remember an old-time vogue for
crocheting over a hairpln to make a
very effective beading or insertion.
This, together with many other old
time knitting and crocheting processes,
is coming back into vogue.
1t can be done on a rather large
wire hairpin, or If a larger beading
Is desired, a wire staple may be used.
1t is quick work and requires absolute
ly no thought, being, once the chain Is
started, purely mechanical. Use cor
responding crochet thread and needle,
according to the list in some crochet
book or the advice Of your saleswoman
at the art needlework shop.
Knot the thread with q loop which
you pull Eel the head of the hairpin,
keeping the knot in back of the pin,
the thread from the ball running up
ward. Now with your crochet needle
grasp the thread from the ball, insert
ing the needle from the front of the
hairpin and under the knot at the back.
Bring the thread upward and make a
chain by grasping the thread from the
back again but on top of the loop.
Now turn your halrpin from right to
left, leaving the needle in the chain
but carrying the hook up over the
rounded head of the hairpin or staple.
The hook will then be in back of the
pin between the pin and the thread.
Now insert the hook through the
pin to the front and pick up the loop
on the left side of the pin, drawing the
thread through from the back and Their
again through both stitches, on hook.
You virtually make a single crochet
through this loop. Turn the pin from
right to left, thus bringing the hook
to the near side of the pin again. Pick
up the left loop again with a single
crochet. Turn the hairpin and repeat
the process.
When the work accumulates It Is
pushed down off the ends of the pin,
until a sufficient length has beer GRO
cheted.

Photograph as a Clock.

A music-loving inventor has lately
utilized the photograph as q means of
announcing the hours in place of the
striking of a clock. A collection of
records are placed so that a short air
Is played every 10, 80 and 40 minutes
while a longer selection marks the fuII
hour. Simple mechanical arrange
ments shift these records under The
needle at the proper minute and re-
move them after they have been
played. The records can be changed
as desired. The photograph clock
consists of three parts, the mechanism
operating the photograph, the case
above 1t containing the records and
the clock itself, the face of which Is
on h front of the machine, while the
mechanism in the rear connects with
that which operates the photograph.

Mason home that Uncle Ezekiel was
dead. After the funeral a will was
read that left the home to Dunbar.
"And nothing left for you, dear -
sighed Nellie.
II hear the farm was all there was
left" advised Darrell. "Well, Uncle
Ezekiel had two years of pleasure In
the company Of Rossmore and l think
he really loved the dear little fellow"
In about Il month Luke Dunbar had
left the village, n disguised, disap-
pointed man. The farm was n poor one.
He might have secured a living from
1t and with are and work could have
made it valuable, but he was a slug
gard. He left town railing at that
old skintliut for spending all his
ready cash and leaving him Il barren
old waste :"
1t certainly a n mystery what
had become of quite a sum Uncle Ze-
kiel had once kept at the bank, The
~eNtravagant habits of Dunbar were
blamed for this, however. He put the
farm in the hands of an agent to sell
for what it would bring. boasting "one
royal good time when he got hold of
the ready cash."
1t was a year later when Nellie and
Darrell came into the house from
wedding the garden.
THAT precious child whatever has
he got hold of now?" exclaimed Nellie,
as a banging, hammering sound echoed
from the living room.
The %irreverent little rogue! :" cried
Darrell, as they came upon the young
hopeful, Little Rossmore, on the floor,
the old bank before him, a hammer in
his hand.
Old Uncle Zekiel'S handwork was a
mass of splinters. Scattered on the
carpet were pennies by the tens
ami hundreds, but also numerous bits
Of closely-folded paper. Darrell picked
n up. He unfolded it.
"A hu%ndred-dollar bill" he an
nounced.
Five hundred ~ cried Nellie, as she
uufOlded another bank note. How
much?" she questioned, as Darrell had
Smoothed out nearly a hundred of
those closely-folded bits of opulence.
Over four thousand dOllars-nOt
counting the pennies" announced Oar
rell.
"Baby's fortune!' cried Nellie. ooh,
Darrell! don't you see? Dear lovable
old Uncle Ezekiel made a pretense of
the pennies, and bit by bit, without
exciting suspicious of that spendthrift
Dunbar, put all his money in the
baby's bank :"
They employed the money judici-
ously by purchasing the property Luke
Dunbar was sacrlticing-and made p
real farm and a happy home of it.

ANCIENT BOARD OF CENSORS
Athenians Had Their Own Effective
Method of Guarding Against Too
Free Speech.

The representatives of the different
groups of thinkers argued with Paul
the Epicurians, who believed in pleas
ure, and the Stoics, who believed in
pain. There had been something noble
about the first teachings of Epicurus,
but his followers had become sensual.
lists, believing the pleasure of the mo-
ment to be all that was worth seeking.
Their watchword had become Let us
ca and drink, for tomorrow we die
The Stoics believed that character was
developed by self-denial, not %self-denial
for the sake of others but %self-denial
for its OWE sake. Professional and
omateur followers of all these various
schools of thought wished to hear the
Jewish street preacher who seemed to
be "a setter forth of strange gods"
But Athens did not altogether have
free speech, says the Christian Herald.
The Athenlans were jealous of their
gods. The judges had put Socrates to
death some years before because they
did not consider him orthodox. The
court held that he had denied the
reality of the Athenian gods and advo-
Gated a false religion. And now the
Areopagites had to pass upon the
teaching Of Paul.
This court of Areopagus was COM
posed of regular professors and lectur-
ers at the university. They put strange
teachers to test to determine their fit
ness and orthodoxy.
Areopagus means Mars Hill, but it
has been discovered that the court did
not always meet on this hill. Its ses-
sions had originally been held there,
but at the time of Paul's visit to
Athens it often met in the Stoa Basilia,
the name of a royal portico near the
market place. Besides the judges the
public itself was admitted to these
hearings. So our friend Paul had pre-
clsely the kind of audience he liked
when he stepped forth to give the
Athenians his idea of philosophy and
religion.
