Abraham's Oak Tree.

When Abraham was promised a pos
session of the land of Canaan, it is
recorded, he was commanded to walk
through the land, whereupon he re-
moved his tent, and came and dwelt
in the plain of Mamre, which is in
Hebron, and built there an altar to
the Lord. 1t is stated that this spot
is still marked by a great oak tree,
yenerated alike by Christian, Jew and
Mohammedan. Its preservation in q
region cleared of almost all trees by
the improvident Turks is attributed
to the protection by all religions.

worthy and asked him how he was
feeling, and he scowled at me and
said it was none of my business, and
intimated that I'd have more friends
if / wouldn't always be butting in.
Had l been given to jumping to con-
clusions, like you, I'd have insisted
that Gooseworthy was a crank whose
head should be bathed in harness oil.
But I said to myself that the old man
must have some trouble on his mind.
which led him to forget the ordinary
bylaws and regulations of the game
of etiquette. and before l had gone
q block met Farthingdale who asked
me if l had hear about Gooseworthy.
"'The old man bought new auto
mobile yesterday said Farthingale.
and before he had owned it an hour
he ran it into tree and crumpled it
all up, so it wouldn't have fetched S.
at the junk yard
"Then | was glad that / hadn't set
Gooseworthy down as a confirmed sore
head. You may not know it, but Ker
smith was moving from one house to
another yesterday, and that job will
ruin the disposition of the most en-
thusiastic optimist in the world. Un-
less you have moved, you don't know
what nerve racking experience is.
"When I was younger l used to be
moving pretty often, having discovered
after much observation and research
that it was cheaper than paying rent.
The moving itself is bad enough, but
your experiences after the job is done
fairly drive you frantic. You can't
find anything you want for month
afterwards. About a thousand things
seem to be lost for keeps, but they
come bobbing up in the most unex-
pected places. You find your tooth
brush in the toe of a slipper, and
your watch in a jar of sauerkraut,
and your Sunday necktie in stuffed
dog. When you put on your Sunday
hat, you find it half full of carpet
rags. There never was such dog
gone business, and l hold that the
man who can move, and still smile
sanity smile, is yet to be born.
"Featherly is one of the sunniest
men 1 ever knew. His face just fair
ly radiates with happiness, so it would
warm up an average room quicker
than a furnace could do it. l always
considered it a pleasure to meet him,
for his joyous demeanor braced me
up for the day. and made me feel that
life was worth living.
"Two days ago 7 overlook him on
the street and slapped him on the
back and asked him how he stacked
up l had done the same dozen times
before, and he had always nearly
wrung my hand off in that enthusias-
tic way of his. And he had slapped
me on the back, and told me | was a
bully boy with vitrifed eye, on many
occasions.
$50 you can imagine how I felt when
he turned around looking as mad as
a group of wet hens He shook his
fist under my nose and danced around
and said, You blamed splay-footed,
sway-backed, knock-kneed imbecile, if
You ever again take such liberty
with me, I'll wind your face around
your neck and tie your ears together
ON top of your head.

tell him what l thought of him, but

WHAT IS THRIFT?

Thrift, in its broad sense, is
handling money wisely.
1t is getting the most out Of
every dollar Of the income.
1t is the power of making
ones dollars bring more dollars
after he has earned them.
1t is administering one's earn
ings with an eye to the future
as well as the present.
Ii is using ones money. much
or little, as an instrument with
which to weave strong fibre into
the character.
True thrift does not curtaiI
buying power. 1t increases il.
1t does not make misers, 1t
teaches how to spend as well as
how to save.

THE UGLY CREATURE.

"Oh, hear some one screaming" g." said the girl who was adventuring to the House Of Secrets.
 'So do l." said the boy, who was her companion.
 Gracious" said Master Thoughtful- ness, who was with them, its that horrible creature again."
 What horrible creature?" asked the boy.
 Come with me and we shall see her. We'll stop her this time. Hurry 1! My, but It's hard for anyone to do anything with her."
 "She sounds perfectly terrible" said the girl. What awful screams she gives"
 "She Is not screaming" said Master Thoughtfulness
 Who is screaming, then?" asked the boy.
 Let's hurry. We mustn't even talk as we go. Follow me-"
 So they followed Master Thought fitness as he went up a short hill. He could run very fast. and he got to the top of the hill, where there was little red house before the boy and the girl got there.
 When they got there they found Master Thoughtfulness talking in a very loud way, and his face looked very angry, so different from the way 1t had looked.
 "Now, you just stop that for good and all" he said You are not fair. In the first place, you're cruel. In the second place. you're hypocrite. And in the third place I don't like that ex- 1t does the child"
 Lots of people use Il, and you don't object" the woman said. She was horrible looking. Her hair was stringy and hung about her head in a very untidy way. Her mouth was very big, and her teeth were very yell low. Her hands were enormous, and the veins stuck out on them. She was tall and quite stout, but 1t was her face which they noticed most. It was such a horrible face that they were sure her ugliness wasn't skin deep. They didn't believe that she was beautiful, even when one got to know her.
 And they didn't feel as If they ever wanted to know her, not in million years. Such dreadful person they had never seen before. Her face was so cruel looking, just the sort of face, they imagined, which belonged to a person who could be cruel to smaller children and to animals. Then the boy remembered, with pang, that he had kicked the little toad. He too vas cruel. and if he was ever cruel

EnerQy in the Atom.

The knowledge of radioactivity, which has been growing since the dis covery of the X-ray and of radium, has revealed the atom as tremendous of energy. The atomic en- ergy contained, for example, in the two-inch piece of chalk with which the lecturer makes his diagrams Is calculated to be 300,000000 foot tons to raise 100000 tons 5000 feet. At present we do not know how to liberate the power. We know that It exists only by observing the spontane- ous dislntegratlon of radioactive sub stances . but knowledge sometimes comes quickly; persons now living may see the day when atomic energy will be used.-Youth's Companion.

like that second time and perhaps a third, he would have a face like this woman's.
 He would certainly never be cruel again. They had been watching her so steadily that they had scarcely no- ticed lovely little boy, quite, quite young, with golden hair and soft brown eyes. He was still crying, just a little and his little face looked as though he had been crying quite hard.
 If you do 1t again" said Master Thoughtfulness, 'I will take your child away from you Yes, will, so mark my words"
 The boy and the girl looked at him in a very puzzled manner.
 Here" said Master Thoughtfulness to the small boy, "here Is an orange. See. got 1t out of my right pocket. And here Is an apple, which grew in my left pocket"
 You're teaching the child an un- truth" shouted the woman.
 Now be careful, careful" said Mas ter Thoughtfulness, "and remember my warning. If you only had little more sweetness in your nature you would know that jokes and make-believe things and fun are among the most important things in life. You only think that harshness and unkindness are real.
 Well, I've given you my warning"
 The woman seemed much quleter now. And tear fell from her right eye.
 She put her arm around the little boy, and the little boy seemed so pleased that he looked up and smiled.
 "i do love my mummy" he said.
 You don't deserve it. cried Mas ter Thoughtfulness, unless you mend your ways. Don't be so anxious to punish. Explain things. I'm the chil- drens friend, you know"
