Elements of True Teaching.

First, to teach the people to avoid
exaggerated and violent speech, and
to cultivate moderate and rational
modes OF expression.
Second, 10 resist the tendencies
which dementalize democracy, and
which substitute the mob mind for the
deliberate habit.
Third, to hold the popular judgment
firmly to the truth that character and
manhood and not money and popularity
are the central values Of human ex-
istence.
Fourth, to turn the thoughts of men
more and more from the negative vir-
tue Of detecting and exposing the evil
to the positive virtue of discerning and
pralsing the good.-Washington Glad
den.

In the room occupied by Rolfe when
he was at home.
He was home just now, as a matter
of fact, but soon to leave it. In fact,
at that moment Rolfe was packing his
trunk for his anticipated journey on
the first morning train for the city.
Suddenly Eleanor gave a start,
stared hard and strained her hearing.
Three mysterious figures appeared
from the nearby shrubbery, stealthy
and sinister.

of the other.

"That's right"
"She's upstairs. One of you hold
her quiet till we get what is worth

In an instant she was on her feet.
First she thought of the plate, jew
elry and money in the little safe in the
library. Then of herself. She heard
footsteps in the hall. Escape was cut
off. What should she do? She might
scream, but the burglars would soon
stifle any cutlery.
"Can / do it?" she painted, as a
strange inspiration came to her. She
ran to her writing desk. in the semi
dusk she scrawled the words: "Help,
quick !" on a sheet of paper. She hur-
ried to a corner where her archery out
fit was. In tremulous haste Eleanor
drove'an arrow point through the pa
per sheet, took up her bow, set the ar
row to the taut string and went to the
open window.
"Tang" Expert markswoman as she
was, all her skill in archery was called
into requisition.
Swish past the head of the
amazed Rolfe, Juggling at a trunk strap,
the arrow sped. A glance at the pa
per attached to its end, and he guessed
all.
He was out of the house, over the
hedge, up to the Tying home within
two minutes. Eleanor, upstairs, trem-
bling, agitated, heard a commotion be-

up to her:
"Whoever is up there come down
quickly"
Faced by her valiant rescuer the
three burglars covered, for he held a
revolver, keeping them at bay. Eleanor
telephoned as directed to the police.
The police came. Then, the strain all

She came back to consciousness, anx-

1t may be natural and it may be sim
