Secretary of the Navy Josephus Dan- iels, in a telegram to Mrs. Benjamin Micou of Washington, now en route to Montgomery to attend the funeral or her father, said, The death of your b. loved father is a personal loss to mo He has been so helpful and kind to me, had given me such wise counsel and as- sistance I feel his death as great per- sonal bereavement. When the history of the navy comes to be written his vision and his large contribution to 1t will make one of it's brightest pages.
 'I have this day ordered one of our newest and finest destroyers to be named Herbert in some recognition of his service in Congress and as Secre- tary of the Navy.
 "Please wire me when the funeral will be held and where"
 Mr Herber was accompanied to Tampa this winter by a niece, Mrs. D. c. Royal, who was at his bedside when he died. Last night he felt well, he said, and spent the evening with friends. During the night he called for Mrs Royal, saying he could breathe only with difficulty, and within half an hour was dead. Mir. Herbert had been in feeble health several years.

When Papa came home to supper
one night Peter was rolling Baby
Paul up and down the sidewalk in
his little cart. He didn't stop till the
baby was sound asleep. And when
he woke after supper hot and fret

bed and got the milk ready for his
supper.

were at last tucked away
Mama looked very much amused.
Jane asked him to take care OF
the baby this morning as he was all
broken out with the heat Peter OBJ
jected, said the old baby was just
naturally cross, and he didn't think
that heat hurt any body anyhow.
"Norah heard him and as usual
she had a long story to tell him
about a man she knew that laughed
at his wife because she complained
about her boils AS a punishment he
was soon covered with boils. He got
to the place he could neither sit nor
stand and swore that If he got well
he'd never make fun Of anyone again.
Peter didn't think much OF her
story and only laughed and ran away
to play. But happened to be in the

Benjie had been the hayward one
of the Lorimer boys, but in spite of his

had accomplished what many gooa

his own soul before he died. Through
the thought of his child he had arrived
at one big meaning OF life.
In this queer reversal of the COM

the odium and responsibility for the
ohild's welfare, while the unwed moth
er was shielded by him to the last.
Nobody could even guess at her
name, though the Lorimer fiction that
Benjie had married in Canada didn't
pass with everybody. The gossips had
their say about Benjie-but never a
word about the girl.

books of Ellen Key, or Charlotte Per-

ly he had aligned himself with what
some Of the cleverest feminists of the
day have been saying. Only he really
acted, right to the end, in accordance
with his radical convictions.
Bob's verdict at the time he hunted
up the child, and brought it home to
Mother Lorimer, had been, "Benjie
never loved the girl-and she didn't
love him. Marriage couldn't dignity

in his severest style, had detained
about the too sophisticated flirt, who
likes to call herself the modern girl
and who uses every feminine vile to
catch a husband, under pretense of in

to the edge OF temptation.

they know which way honor lies. Bar
