yelled a wicked Democrat and such a storm of laughter broke out that Mr Cannon was forced to take his seat Strike on a Church The Grace Presbyterian church the fashionable church of Oswego N Y has been placed on the unfair list of the labor organizations of that city Two years ago when the interior of the edifice needed redecorating the trustees felt that they wanted some thing beyond the skill of the local dec orators so they let the contract to a contractor of an adjoining city They did the same last spring when the church needed a new curbing and side walk But when a leak developed in the roof recently the local dealers in metal roofing were applied to but they refused to take the contract because the church has been placed ou the unfair list Fifty Dollars to Sit Down Carmel Ind Dec

her hands folded her eyes fixed away be yond the housetops where a line of blue marked the horizon Rachel was busy with her thoughts She was only a poor girl with no ethic training to guide her to the right path at this parting of the ways Joseph Rosenthal came in as he al ways did when the twilight wavered down and the candles were not yet lit and Rachel bad a little time to give him These moments were to him the golden strand in the gray web of the day He took her hand and raised it to his lips It was the old time chivalry in Josephs manner that had first attracted her My Rachel do you know what day this is and why there has been a song of joy in my heart through all its sunny hours She trembled and bent her head I have thought of you all day I did not even wish that you might see me take my diploma because I was looking down the way to the time when you would be always with me The thought of you has been a rose blooming in my heart Has it brought iio happiness to you I am very glad You have worked witii noble purpose and deserve to succeed Why as for that you have been the largest part of my purpose and you are noble so in that view my purpose has been a noble one As for my attitude that might strike a man as selfish You are always unselfish Philosophers say that love is the most selfish passion known to man Then I must be intensely selfish for all I do is for love Is it thinking of my unselfishness that had made you so serious when I hoped you would be glad as the light and the songs of birds and the bloom of flowers Partly that I have been thinking many things Tell me of them You were very young four years ago Yes so were you The difference is that you have remained young be cause the soul of innocence and goodness is the soul of youth while have grown old

your sake It will be different when you measure weapons with the worlds workers You mean that I shall play the poltroon and go out In the world and leave you who have sacrificed all for me She shrank

Oh The sharp pain in her tone told him what her words had cost her If you do why not make me happy and let me do what I can to fill your life with pleasure I must not You would weary of one who is versed only in the toil of the narrow life that I have known He pleaded with her until she in litter weariness begged him in pity to leave her and then he went away She lay the whole night with her eyes looking upward to the ceiling where there seemed to be a flaming sword dripping with her hearts blood As the days went by and he could gain from her no other answer than the one that filled him with pain he ceased to come She heard of him sometimes as the fame of his work carried his name wider into the world and ever farther from her Then the fever came and she heard often of Dr Rosenthal the Angel of the Ghetto He had gone out of her life forever and she was glad glad for the good he could do without anyone to drag him down For years the Kenston tenements had seemed to waver between stand ing and falling sagging out here sinking in there growing loose joint ed and wobbly at the knees Why dont you pull them down and rebuild someone had asked the owner Whats the use They are bring ing me in money all the time and it will cost no more to clear the ruins away and build after they fall But the people in them they will be crushed when the buildings fall What of that There are always plenty of tenants for that class of house In that grade the race mul tiplies rapidly and immigration can always be depended upon to fill up any possible vacancy One morning Rachel Meyerberg in the top story of the Kenston felt a peculiar sensation of giddiness It seemed that the floor was trembling and the walls had a tendency to shake as if with a chill as she ap proached them Once a sound as of gravel rattling in the walls startled her She laughed at herself for being so nervous The walk to her work would take away the foolish feeling She had reached the door and was turning the knob when suddenly there was a crash as if the earth was fall ing to pieces and she went down down into black night She was in a very dark place and a heavy weight was crushing her Far off she saw a ray of light If she could push off that heavy thing she would crawl toward it Outside an old man who had just bean dragged out unhurt was wring ing his handj and crying My Rachel My Rachel There was a pile of swaying tim bers in front A fireman had ven tured under there led on by the voice of a crying child One of the timbers had fallen and he had been taken out dead No one could tell when the next would fall with a grip that made him cry out Where is she Behind that walk of the threatenlpg beams falling u he ran Hes gone No it just missed him Sisters Suitor Scared Off When Al most Hooked Pewee Jackson was a quiet lad to appearance but tho time he spent in thought was not wasted I dont know as I ever heard a more pathetic story than that told by his sister Amy who had been making conscien

listen to his views on prohibition of which he was a sturdy advocate and it seemed to be no task for her to wal lop the key board as they both tried the songs for the coming services One sad night Amy tells the story with tears in her voice they go to the piano as usual and Amy strikes a note that is decidedly to the bad With a surprised look she lifts the top of the piano and the distressed pas tor draws out half a chicken and three empty beer bottles The pastor was nice about it and laughed gayly but Amy did not re cover her strength that evening All her explanations about her playful lit
