At a banquet of the ministers of New York, Doctor Johnston of the Morrlsanla church, told this story: "One of the inomberB of my church has Instilled Into his family tho belief that the collection Is a vitally Impor tant part of the service. "Consequently his little boy Thomas never comes to church without his contribution. "One Sunday, as the elders began to take up tho collection at the morning service, Thomas looked along the pew to see If the various members of the family were provided with a contribu tion. "Noticing a guest of his sister's empty-handed, he whispered: " 'Where Is your money?' " 'I have none,' was the reply. "Time was short and tho necessity great. In a flash the little fellow met the emergency by saying: "'Hero tako mine. That'll pay for you, and "I" get under the seat.' "And, fllnglnc his own coin Into her lap, he disappeared under the pew, where ho remained until the elder had gone by and tho reputation of tho family was saved." Popular Maga zine. Porflrlo Diaz's Poetic Prophecy. President Porflrlo Diaz, who ruled over Mexico for more than a quarter of a century as an absolute dictator, believed that only such Iron rule could bring peace and progress to tho half civilized millions of that country. Several years ago, when his power was still unbroken, an American, who was on Intimate terms with him, ven tured to suggest that the Mexicans were now prepared for a moro liberal form of government, and hinted that his rule was too severe. The stern old man stiffened his gaunt figure, and ran his fingers through his locks, now white with years. "When these snows melt," he said, prophetically, "the mud will be deep in Mexico!" Youth's Companion. Kind Editors. Needless to say, tho night was cold. Brrr! "Wo have used up the last stick of wood in tho house," said the young artist to the brooding poet as they sat beside the embers of a fire. "What shall we do? Must I sacrifice my lat est canvas?"

HUMOR WORSE THAN WASTED Probably In the Future Madge Lesslng Will Be Wary of Joking With Ger man Newspaper Men. Miss Madge Lesslng, who is now appearing In Tho Blue Mouse, has been playing In Berlin for some timet remarks Pearson's Weekly. She was telling us tho other day that soon after she went to Germany she was Interview ed by tho representa tive of a Berlin newspaper. Tho Interview complimented her on being able to speak her lines In the piece without a traco of a foreign accent. "Oh," replied Miss Lesslng frivol ously, "I play In five languages Ger man, French, American, English and Irish." Poor Miss Lesslng expected at least a smile at her llttlo joke, but tho In terviewer wrote It down quite serl ously, and In due course the statement appeared in print. Almost Immediately another news paper chlded her, solemnly informing her that American, English and Irish were practically one and the same lan guage. "Miss Lesslng," it pointed out, "should know better than to make a mistake like this!" Grievance of Suffraglsm. One of the grievances of suffragists Is the inferior position occupied by women as parents. A couple of days ago a woman, whoso husband had, so far as sho knew, gone down In tho Empress of Ireland, applied to tho Wlllesden magistrates for a vaccina tion exemption for her Infant son. Sho was Informed from the bench that the oxomptlon order could not be granted until the father's death was legally proved, as "the law did not recognize her as tho parent of the child." If tho law does not enable .a woman to rank as the parent of her children it must bo a "hass" of tho most asinine type. London Globe. Delicate Flattery. "What makes you keep saying you wish congress would adjourn?" asked the statesman, a llttlo resentfully. "Well," replied the big business man, "my reasons are entirely selfish. You gentlemen make such Interesting speeches that I can't help stopping to read them and It takes my mind off ray work." Tho under dog always likes to hear tho flap of tho wings of the peace dove. i Why Is it that a big man always takes a llttlo woman eerlously? DISAPPEARED Coffee Alio Vanish Before Postum. It seems, almost too good to bo true, tho way headache, nervousness, Insomnia, and many other obscuro troubles vanish when coffee Is dis missed and Postum used as tho regu lar tablo beverage. Tho reason is clear. Coffee con tains a poisonous drug caffeine which causes the trouble, but Postum contains only tho food elements In choice hard wheat with a llttlo mo lasses. A Phila. man grew enthusiastic and wrote as follows: "Until 18 months ago I used coffee regularly every day and suffered from headache, bitter taste in my mouth, and Indigestion; was gloomy and irri table, bad variable or absent appetite, loss of flesh, depressed in spirits, etc. "I attribute these things to coffee, because slnco I quit It and have drank Postum I feel better than I had for 20 years, am less suscoptlblo to cold, havo gained 20 lbs. and the symptoms have disappeared vanished beforo Postum."

ARMIES OF POWERS COMPARED mCtf ftsJstt&i 1 JApAN AOotWA fRANCt GERMANY REAL BATTLE CAPABILITIES OF THE ARMIES OF EUROPE "Do you know that the contending umles in Europo today are battling upon their peaco tlmo footings?" askod ft colonol on the general staff of the United States army. "And don't for get that tho nation that gets its fight ing force up to its full wpj strength first will gain a. material advantage In the present turmoil." This meanB tha't any hasty deduc tions made upon the basis of fights won and lost up to date may soon prove absolutely misleading. The Question then arises: Which of tho struggling armies can reach its war strength soonest, and, with that attained, what are Its chances for maintaining that standing in tho gru eling days to come? Tho answer Is a matter of administrative efficiency first, and then follows naturally tho relatlvo merits of tho reBervo material upon which tho nation can draw as battle after battle and disease thin tho ranks of those In the field. At present tho QermonB are virtually fighting alono four other nations, but their Initial setbacks are not properly a true Index of what Is to come In the near future. Some Figures. As it is neoossary to deal with fig ures It is Just as well to begin now on later. These figures, Interpreted in the light of additional Information havo anothor meaning, ono that comes olosor to tho factB Inspiring tho ag gressive policy nsaumod by tho kai ser in faco of Beomlngly appalling oddo. According to authoritative in formation tho poaoe and the war foot ing of tho powers named are as fol lows: Peace. Russia ....771,193 Germany .EGS.cect Prance ...

Both Germany and Franco havo In the last two years in creased tho period of service from two to three years. In France this lengthening of the term with the col ors aroused a great deal of opposition, not to say dlsoontent Immediately back of these soldiers are the first reserves, men who but recently havo finished thoir full tours of activo service and of course are familiar with the latest practices. Now look at the foregoing figures. Ger many's peaco footing la only 29,895 men stronger than that of Franco, but upon tho first call to arms this moder ate superority immediately Jumps to the greater figure of 144,203, giving the kaiser an advantage of nearly 21 per cent But thlB la only the beginning of tho difference. Germany's total reserve of fully trained reserves men trained with peculiar thoroughness is today quite 5,000,000, whllo tho admittedly less ex actlngly drilled reserves of Franco number but 3,260,000 rank and file. Here, as can plainly bo seen, tho Fa therland leads by 1,760,000 two and a half tlmos tho war footing of France, whllo still having In reserve as many as Fronoo would have at host Setting aside the question of tho relative military value of the training of the German and tho French sol diers, thoso of Franco carry a inaga tlno rifle of eight mllllmlters caliber and the German infantrymen repeat- AIR MACHINES WILL DO BUT LITTLE KILLING While ho belioves war of tho air will bo tho war of tho future.

Assuming tho same propulsive charge, tho Gorman gun will carry fur ther and travel flatter than tho Frenoh weapon, making for better marksman ship at all ranges. Again, the French rifle Is heavier than the German, Increasing to that extent tho stress upon the man who has to carry It on long marches. The soldlors of both , nations carry tho same numbor pf cartridges, 120. But tho saving in weight in the German musket is offset by other weights ho has to carry. Fully equipped tho French foot soldier has a total bur don of 64.G8 pounds, while the Ger man Infantryman has to boar 68.76 pounds. As a broad proposition tho averago German is a sturdier man than his French rival, and this greater tax is wisely laid upon him. French Equipment. In tho French army each company of infantry has the following portable tools: Eight shovels, four pickaxes (doublo headed), threo axes, ono fold ing saw and a pair of wire nippers. The Gorman foot soldlor on tho other hand does not get off so easily, be cause eaoh company has to carry 100 small spades, ton pickaxes and five hatchets. Now what does thlB mean? Simply that the kaiser'B Infantrymen are able to entrench themselves quick er than their French rivals, and for that reason could hold an advanced po sition more securely and guard them selves against attack while there bet ter than tho soldiers of the tricolor. Now let us seo what Russia repre sents as a foes to Germany on the Fa therland's northern border. Unques tionably the czar's army Is superior to tho kaiser'B in mcro point of num bers In peace, In war and In the total available resorves, and so far aa per sonal bravery goes the Russian soldier is unsurpassed. But battles nro not won theso dayB by Just numbers; training and handling of tho men are of supremo importance. Broadly speaking, It Is doubtful If tho Russian forces aro any better tralnod than thoy wero when they measured strength with the Japanoao In 1904-05. The Infantry are armed with magaxlno rifles of 7.62 millime ter caliber, and as marksmon they aro nothing like the equals of the Ger mans. How They Compare. Russia Is measurably suporlor to Germany in the matter of Infantry, cavalry and artillery in tho form of flold guns, and Germany, In turn, leads France In the vital feature of artillery. Artillery has nlayed a prima part In all great wars, and tho popular Idea is that It la upon theso guns that tho tldo of battle turns. In a measure this Is so, for tho field pieces have to pro tect or support the Infantry; but with this dono, the decisive outcome of an action depends upon the conduct and gallantry 'of tho foot soldier, for he constitutes the backbone of any mili tary force. Aa a matter of history, the Frenoh have led In field o'rdnanoe ever slnco the Franco-Prussian war. The French were the first to adopt tho long recoil which made It possible to use higher propulsion charges and to secure bet ter practice against tho target, and to them, too, is owed the introduction of tho spado upon tho trail by whlob tho recoil of the carriage could be chocked, thus making It possible for the gun polntor to bold bis position aud to flro deliberately and rapidly. To tho French, also, tho world is Indebted for the highor development of the shrapnel shell with its withering blast , of leaden bullets. oped yet to tho point where they will bo particularly destructive. Their chiof effectiveness In the big war in Europe will be to create oonateraattoo In groups of hidden ooldiors.

A Home TOW JtlELPsS BEAUTY OF WELL KEPT LAWN Care Taken of Land Surrounding the Home Adds Much to Arractlve- ness of Town. At various times In connection with tho nowspapor reports of tho mootlngs of cltltens' associations tho subjoot of well kept lawns and attractive flower bedB has boon touched on, and In a number of Instances citizens' as sociations havo agrood to oontlnuo tho practise previously found effec tive of giving awards for lawnB and flower growths of distinguished merit. Many of the urban and suburban neighborhoods of tho district are tho handsomer, happier and moro valuable beoauso of the caro glvon to tho land In front or at tho rear or on tho grass sides of the home. A woll kopt grass plot or a carefully tendod flower gar don tolls all tho world which passes that way that somebody lives there, that there Is homo llfo thoro and that order and contont reigns within. In most cases tho condition of tho yard or "grounds" can be and will bo taken as an index of tho house keeping system that is followed In side Tho gardon or the lawn tendod with caro glvos a propor touch to tho homo and appliod to contiguous homes makos tho neighborhood bet ter. Tho ollmato of Washington la encouraging to flno gardens and every body who Uvos In a houso has tlmo enough to caro for ono. Tha lawn mowor, tho rake and tho spado aro fine Implements of physical culture. Tho security of private lawns and flowor bods Is groator than It over was. Public opinion has boon so Improved nnd eduoated In this mat ter that complaints of marauding aro rare, whereas not many years ago they wore frequent. This 1b shown by roferonco to an editorial In tho Star, May 27, 187C, which in part fol lows: "Thoro 1b probably no place In the country where moro 1b dono by its Inhabitants to beautify their homes by tho cultivation of flowers, shrub bery, otc., than by tho citizens of Washington. Nor is there a place where such efforts aro more success ful considering tho discouragements and drawbacks under which they aro made. Wo refer moro especially to the pulling of flowers, tho destruc tion of shrubbery and the theft of rare plants from prlvato grounds. So great has this abuso grown in somo porta of tho city thot not a few of thoso who havo boen so frequently raided are hesitating botween giving up tho pleasant duty of ornamenting their grounds and lying lu wait for tho marauders with loaded shotguns. The moBt curious thing to theso Buf fcrers is tho fact that tho police ap parently never seo any of tho despoil ing, nnd that in splto of tho stringent law on the subject no nrrosts nro made or at least no punishment Is in flicted." PLAYGROUNDS FOR THE CITY Statistics Show Less Crime In Places Where the Recreation Plan Obtains. At a meotlng of the City Club In Philadelphia recently at which tho ssbject of municipal recreation was under dlsousslon ono of the speakers gave uttorance to the sentiment: "A foot of playground Is worth an aero of penal Institutions." It is dlffl cult to gauge the valuo of the playground, but In ovory city where a playground or a system of playgrounds has been established the tostlmony has beon in Its favor as a beneficent Institution. Most of our American cities did not give much thought to the recreation Idea in tho beginning, but nono of thorn under took to got along without prisons. Perhaps If the playgrounds wore moro numerous the country might bo able to dispense with a fow acres of Its penal establishments. That tho playground bad a civil izing and elevating Influence is not to bo doubted. Figures compiled In va rious cities show that Juvenile of fenses aro fewest in localities wboro recreation grounds are available. They also show that there are tower accidents and Injuries to children in such neighborhoods. Children who aro "raised up In tho streets" mako trouble for thomaolvos and for other persons. In cities where there is not a playground system It Is inevitable that children will play In tho streets for It Is the nature of tho child to play No city over made a bad Investment in buying a playground or In establish ing a system of playgrounds.

Names can produce sometimes a treat deal of confusion. As whon Flor ence D.

White," and tho woman naturally inferred that Floronco wns of tyor own box. Therefore sho asked tho visitor to como up. And as sho was not dressed to recelvo ono of tho other box, tho climax wns embarrassing. A visitor from Columbus was toll- lug a story of Ireland, the clever car toonist of tho Columbus Dispatch. Ire land's work Is known to every man, woman and child in Columbus, and to a great many outstdo that city. Last spring Ireland went on a va cation trip to tho South.
