Burke was 45 when the first of his
great speeches was delivered and

Indeed the only speech in Mr

when he was 34 and that age can
hardlybe called youthful

STORY WITHOUT THE SEM
BLANCE OF A MORAL
Faithful Retalnerc Lappe from the
Path of Sobriety Responsible for
the Union of Two Fond Hearts
Brother-in-Law Wao Hasty
A city clergyman tells this story
cf a marriage in his church which
happened through a misunderstand
ing According to him there was a
bachelor whdse affections seemed to
be centered in his sisters young sons
and daughters There was an inter
esting young woman of another city
who rarely came to New York and
he was such a very busy man that he
seldom got out of town to see her
As a result the sisters children were
enough to make him dally in his
courtship
It happened that the brother-in-law
in the case who sometimes envied
the bachelor because he could stay
out late heard dreadful noises in the
house early one morning It could
not be a burglar because they do not
fall down stairs and disturb the
house with hiccoughs
Distressed at his brother-in-laws
condition but hopeful that he would
break his neck the master of the
house went to sleep again In the
morning he entered the room of his
brother-in-law in order to berate
him The astonishment of the bach
elor was great and his anger was
greater He had come home early
and sober it seemed to him that he
could not live in the house any long
er under the circumstances and he
left too mad to talk to his relatives
After breakfast at a restaurant he
went to the hotel where the young
woman from out-of-town happened to
be He was so impetuous in his woo
ing that they were married that day
Among those who were at the cere
mony were the sister and brother-in-law
The latter was very humble and
explained that on going down to his
breakfast he had been confronted by
the butler who had been many years
in the family but who was dropping
the plates singing in a maudlin way
and acting in any way but that of a
model butler When the brother-in-
law asked the butler for an explana
tion of his condition he confessed that
on his evening off he had seen friends
so many and so often that he had
come home in such a condition that
he had fallen down stairs several
times on his way to his room
The brother-in-law has employed
the discharged butler
A Doubtful Compliment
Poultney Bigelow who has accept
ed the chair of foreign relations at
Boston university had completed an
address before the Twentieth Cen
tury club of Chicago A young man
congratulated Mr Bigelow rather
awkwardly on this address and the
learned traveler replied
This is a doubtful compliment It
reminds me of a remark that a friend
of the grooms mad at a New Hamp
shire wedding
This friend an observant chap
watched the groom closely during the
ceremony and at the end bore down
on the happy man shook him warmly
by the hand and said
Bill ye done good I had an idee
ye would be skittish while yewuz be
bein tied up but begosh ye looked
as bold as a sheep Washington
Post
First Printing Office in America
There is among compositors and
other employes of printing offices in
the city of Mexico a project to place a
big marble slab at the corner of Mone
da and Cerrada de Santa Teresa
streets opposite the postofficewith
an inscription in gold letters reading
that it was in this house where the
first printing office in America was
established
A commission will soon request the
city council to give this ceremony an
official character Delegations of com
positors are now inviting all members
of the fraternity to contribute for the

enough is raised in addition to the
plate a marble or bronze bust of Gut

When the Clock Ticks Loud
There are times when life is something
more than meat and drink ana
sleep
When the surface shows no ripple though
the stream is swift and deep
When the goods thats in the worst of us
has taken us in tor
And has fanned loves fading embers till
they flash again and glow
When we feel theres something In us has
escaped the madding crowd
When its auiet in the evening and the
clock ticks loud
When the grate fircr crimson afterglow
Is graying into gloom
WThen theres none but she and you with
in that cozy little room
When the cat upon the hearth rug yawns
and drifts atrain to dreams
Then how very like the heaven we have
learned to long for seems
That delightful little chamber with the
magic charm endowed
When its quiet in the evening and the
oock ticks loud
Not n word to break the stillness yet
theres music in the air
Music born of softest silence music
sweet and low and rare
For the one who sits beside you is your
sweetheart and you know
That she loves you for she wed you
many patient years ago
And her love songs born of silence make
vou brave and trreat and proud
When its quiet in the evening and the
clock ticks lotil

Mrs Gertrude Atherton although

Twenty one years ago three little
children were suddenly bereft of
father and mother they were friend
less and homeless but it was only
one of the many similar instances
happening every day only three lit
tle children left friendless and home
less that was all But it was a cru
cial moment in at least one life Rev
J G Lemen was at that time pastor
of a large church in Council Bluffs
la This man whose heart was large
enough to find a place for every un
fortunate one took these children
into his own home where thej shar
ed the same loving tender care that
was bestowed upon his own little
ones It was not long before he learn
ed of other children who had been
left to the cold mercies of a selfish
world Moved with compassion he
took these also to his already over
crowded home Then came the test
money was needed He had a few
thousand dollars which he had saved
up for a rainy day He little knew
what the Master had in store for
him but he was obedient and when
the news came that other little ones
had been left alone fatherless and
motherless with no one to care for
them and the command came to take
these also to the ordinary man with
his house filled to overflowing and a
large congregation looking to him to
be fed spiritually it would have
seemed like an impossibility not so
however with this man it was
enough for him to know that his Mas
ter approved of it and bid him to do
it As he stepped out upon His
promises and obeyed the command to
20 forward the way opened before
him and when he had exhausted his
own competency never doubting but
that a way would be opened to supply
their needs He who owns the cattle
upon a thousand hills moved upon
the hearts of His faithful subjects to
send of their substance that these
little homeless ones might be cared
for Larger quarters became neces
sary and they were secured Other
children were left homeless and
found under his roof not only cheltor
from the storm -but a loving tender
father as all at tne Home delight to
call him and more than this in his
sainted wife now deceased who pre
sided over the household affairs and
was continually looking after their
welfare
From a small beginning twenty one
years ago the Christian Home has
grown until now about two hundred
and fifteen children are cared for
there and two thousand have been
placed in good Christian families
The real estate consists of about
twenty five cottages and other build
ings all owned by an organization
r which has been formed through the ef
forts of Mr Lemen with a view of
making it a permanent organization
Mr and Mrs Lemen have been
blessed with four lovely children
three sons and one daughter Ail of
them take great delight in the work
of the Home and on them no doubt
the mantle of their father and moth
er will fall The oldest son is giv
ing his entire life to this work also
The scrupulous neatness and order
that pervades the entire institution
the loving salutation of Hello
papa that rings out from every
quarter as he passes about the
grounds and the remarkable execu
tive ability he displays in all the
management of the affairs of the
Home are sufficient to impress every
visitor that it is no ordinary man
who has been called to this great and
noble work Children are taken here
from any part of the globe and have
the best possible care and training
You my readers wherever you may
be may have a part in this grand
work It is a labor of love in behalf
of all homeless suffering children
everywhere The children are fre
quently adopted by Christian people
but are never allowed to go from the
Home excepting into Christian fami
lies who are properly vouched for
The Christian Home is non sectarian
but is heartily indorsed and support
ed by alllenominations It takes child
ren from every state and it is not a
local affair but belongs to the world
We have given this brief descrip
tion of the Christian Home with the
hope that all who read it will become
interested in its welfare If you have
money which the Master desires you
to use for such purposes send it to

they grow I took one down a peg
though the other day He was talk

and tnat woman he had known and
these woman it seemed had married
Why you I said are in danger of

married before it is too late Oh

Spencer in Russia
Tolstoi in acknowledging the re
ceipt of a copy of Herbert Spencers
autobiography confessed that he did
not like the English philosopher be
cause he had little heart But that
Spencer is a great favorite in Russia
modern Russian literature bears am
ple witness That very aridity of
which Tolstoi complained appeals pe
culiarly to the feverish materialistic
idealism out of which nihilism springs
Probably no single philosopher has
exerted a wider influence on Russia
which has not as yet produced much
in the way of philosophy that is origi
nal
