Teak Wood Highly Valued.

During the reign Of the Burmese
kings teak was the royal wood, and
the king had a right to all teak. The
palace of the kings ia Mandalay is al
most entirely built of this wood, and
one of the throne rooms is supported
by fine pillars Of teak. The bamboo
forests in Burma, which sometimes
grow to height of from so to 60 feet,
and are glory in themselves, are but
an underground above which tower
the teak trees, giants of strength, dig
nifty, and beauty, attaining a height of
from $50 to $50 feet. The teak trees
grow several hundred yards apart,
three mature trees to the acre being
considered a good yield. Beauty is
not. however, their chief feature, for
their wood is used extensively for
BODYBUILDING, both in Burma and In
dia, and in Europe for men-of-war.
Its durability is due to an essential oil,
and when used as backing for armor
plates it is found that the bolts and
rivets do not rust, owing to the Oil
contained in the wood.

STRICT RULES FOR STUDENTS
Sabbath Observance at Harvard Cen.
turtles Ago Was Severe, According
to the Modern Idea.

In THE Story of Harvard" Mr. Ar
thur Stanwood Pier gives an account
of the strict regulations formerly set
down for the guidance of the Harvard
undergraduates by the president and
the fellows of the corporation. The
old laws, intended to enforce upon the
undergraduates more religious and
studious life, would be considered re-
presslve and tyrannical today.
All the scholars shall, at sunset in
the evening preceding the Lords day,
retire to their chambers and not un-
necessarily leave them; and all dis
order on said evening shall be pun
ished as violations of the Sabbath are
And whOsoever shall profane
said day-the Sabbath-by unneces-
sary business or visiting, walking in
the commons or in the streets or fields,
in the town of Cambridge, or by any
sort of diversion before sunset, or
that in the evening OF the Lords day
shall behave himself disorder1y, or in
any way unDecoming the season. shall
be fined not exceeding ten shillings.
THAT students may furnish them
selves with useful learning, they shall
keep in theft respective chambers, and
diligently follow their studies, except
half an hour at breakfast; at dinner
for from twelve to two; and after eve
ming prayers till after nine of the
clock. To that end the tutors shall fire.
quently visit their chambers after nine
o'clock in the evening and at other
studying times, to quicken them to
their business"
It does not seem that under such a
system of vigilance and visitation the
students could fall into very disso1ute
ways. But a few years later George
Whitefeld, the famous evangelist who
so stirred up New England, visited
Harvard college, and expressed his dis
pleasure at the dissipated habits of
the young men. He declared conditions
at Oxford were no worse-a charge so
damaging that it greatly disturbed and
1ncensed the college authorities

REblRTH

But I could never have made her
happy"
The words rang in the child's ears
as if someone had spoken them. He
sat up in his cot, trembling with fear
of the unknown. The dark was ter
rifying. He screamed.
Then footsteps sounded in the room,
blaze Of light was switched on, and a
pair of loved arms encircled him and
drew his head down to warm breast.
What was the matter, honey"
II don't know, mummy" he STAN
mered.
Gradually the sobs subsidized. After
while the little boy seemed to sleep.
But he was not asleep; his little brain
was working hard and trying to re-
member.
He knew that he loved his mother
beyond all power of words and
thoughts. He was good child, docile
obedient, the pride Of both his parents
John and Margaret Milrand had been
married twelve years before the boy
came to them. At first they had not
been altogether happy. Margaret had
been engaged before to Alfred Symons,
who was killed in the railroad wreck a
week before his wedding day. Mar
garet had been heartbroken.
It was three years before she could
bring herself to listen to John Mil
rand's addresses. But she knew that
it is absurd to devote all ones life to
grief for the dead. She had a wom-
ans desire for children. She told John
frankly that she could never love him
as she should
II will teach you to love me, dear"
said John.
So they we're married. But they were
not happy till the boy came. John had

''go him one BETTER" but own "a dog

til you have really "chummed" with

Then shall you treat him hygienically

brother. Deal with him as justly as
you would your neighbour; give him
the sympathy you would comrade;
exercise toward him the sense you
would bestow upon your two-year-old.
We have taken and made him what
he is, dependent of man. His faith
full and honest heart is ever proud
of his vassalage. He is overwilling
to do his duty by us; let us attend,
then, to the noblesse oblige of it, and
do our duty by him.

again as his friend went on his way,
but a few serious expressions came
into his eyes. He was so distracted,
that a young lady hurrying after him
called his name twice before he heard

Her daintiness and grace, the glow

its terminus, Bennington. With casual

profoundly impressed.

apartments the hosiery contained
I'm Mr.. Smith, it seems" solilo-
quized Delmar, "and so accepted here.
I wonder why?'
He soon knew. It was a strange
freak Of circumstances but this John
Smith who had exchanged suit cases
with him had been originally headed
for BevingtOn. In fact, an architect
and engineer, he had been engaged as
business manager for the town. He
had, however, secured far better ap-
pointment in Canada and had so writ
ten to the town authorities. Now that
John Smith, as evidenced by his lug
gage, had arrived, it was supposed that
he had changed his mind
Hence, delight on the part Of COM
mittee Of representative citizens who
called upon Delmar that evening. He
made a whimsical resolve. Destiny
had cast him into a line of labor he
well understood. Under a false name
Owen Delmar became the business
agent of Bevington.
He made one stipulation; he would
not accept any compensation until the
end of the year. Then, if the work
showed results, he would continue on
with the position.
Delmar more than made good. It
was the happiest year of his life. He
gave to Bevington a new water sys-
TEN, he brought three factories there.
He had it build a circular electric line,
taking in eight tributary towns.
This last venture necessitated the
purchase of the right of way through a
little farm that was the keynote to
the whole proposition. It made Del
mar feel good to witness the happiness
of the poor old couple who owned the
them comfortable for life.
And then he was unmasked. The
old couple were the uncle and aunt
Elsa Vane had often told him about.
Her voice had failed her, and she had
come home disappointed, but willing
to take up again the duties of an
humble life.
He met her in vast surprise one day,
as Mr. Smith. She blurted out his
real name at first welcome. She
looked proud of him when she knew
how it had come about.
And, having found his place in the
world, Delmar naturally sought an at
tendant solace-Iove

name" he told Elsa one day, $50 I am

him, had turned the errors Of his life
into advantages, had iEtervened to pre-
vent this tragedy, in order that Mar.
garet might preserve her own ideal
ism.
Yet their love had been too strong
not to produce results. There was an
imperishable part of their life. But
what it was the dead man could not
discover.
At last, however, the meaning
dawned on him.
1T was maternal love on Margaret's
part he thought. "She is woman

But l could never have made her
happy!"
The little boy was half dreaming,
while his mother moved in the next
room. He was striving with all his
new little brain to recollect the imme-
mortal past. He had visions for which
nothing in his present existence could
possibly account. He seemed to have
suffered agonizing pain, to have had
the breath crushed out of him beneath
an awful weight. And mingled with it
there came woman's face, which, in
deed, he had often seen ii his dreams.
The boy puzzled.
Then it seemed to him that he re-
verted to a day when all these troubles
were ended. A wonderful peace en-
veloped him. 4 rest such as was unbe-
lievable after that awful torment And
at the portals he seemed to hear q
woman's cry:
my love, come back to mel"
He hesitated; and then, oppressed
by that alien grief, he turned sadly
away. The call was like some noble
note upon an organ, diapason that
filed all space.
He felt himself sinking into uncon-
seriousness. That was all he remem-
bered.
Now he slept, and the phantoms of
his brain, already fading, troubled him
no more. With his flushed face upon

And forgotten-him?'

eyes. you must believe me, DEAR"
she said. "He means nothing to me at
all-nothing. He has meant nothing
since the boy was born It seems as
if, with his birth Alfred slipped out of
my mind and memory"
Her husband kissed her. and Just
then the child opened his eyes sleep
lily. And, as they fixed themselves up
on the mother, suddenly Margaret
knew.
