Tommy'a Explanation.
Little Tommy told his mother that
ho thought it too rainy for him to
venturo forth to school, relates tho
Now York Tribune.
"But It will not be too rainy this
afternoon for you to play ball, will
It?" aBked his mothor.
"No, mother," replied Httlo Tommy,
respectfully, "becauso you can always
play better ball in tho rain than In
tho sunshine."
"I don't see how, Tommy."
"Why," replied Tommy, "It's be
causo when it is raining thoro is lots
of mud, and that makes It so slippery
that you can slldo on your stomach
bettor."

WRONG SORT
Perhaps Plain Old Meat, Potatoes and
Bread may Be Against You for a
Time.
A chango to the right kind of food
can lift ono from a sick bed. A lady
In Wclden, 111., says:
"Last Spring I becamo bod-fast with
severe stomach trouble accompanied
by sick headache. I got w.orse and
worse until I becamo so low I could
scarcely retain any food at all, al
though I tried every kind. I had be
como completely discouraged, had giv
en up all hope and thought I was
doomed, to starve to death, till one
day my husband trying to find some
thing I could retain brought home
some Grape-Nuts.
"To my 8urprlso tho food agreed
with me, digested perfectly and with
out distress. I began to gain strength
at once, my flesh (which had been
flabby) grew firmer, my health Im
proved in every way and every day,
and in a very few weeks I gained' 20
pounds In weight I liked Grape-Nuts
so well that for 4 months I ato no
other food, and always felt as well sat
isfied after eating as If I had sat down
to a fine banquet
"I had no return of tho miserable
sick stomach nor of tho headaches,
that I used to havo when I ate other
food. I am now a well woman, doing
all my own work again, and feel that
life is worth living.
"Grape-Nuts food has been a god
send to my family; it surely saved my
life and my two little boys hav6 thriv
en on it wonderfully." Name given

Sho woro black dresses with white
collars and cuffs and Httlo whlto
aprons. Her part In tho plan of tho
unlvorso was' to servo tho hungry
peoplo who flocked from the trains
Into the station dining room.
It was in tho hot summer days that
sho was most Inclined to rebel at her
lot. She was not what would bo called
a discontented girl. But when tho
crowds of summer tourists camo pour
ing into tho eating houso sho had
stirrings of a keen unrest
Though no ono would have dreamed
It, she bad a secret passion. It was all
tho whllo consuming her as sho set be
fore tho hungry traveler tho Httlo
dishes of bread and meat and vege
tables tho Interminable little dishes.
Ono day when tho tide of pleasure
seekers and tired workers had been
moving westward for weeks, sho walk
ed into tho manager's offlco nnd asked
to bo relieved.
Ho looked up with soma annoyance.
"Why, you'ro not going to leave us
Just now, arcyou? This is a rushing
time I don't want to break In any
green girls Just now. What, did you
say the trouble is?"
"I didn't say," faltered tho girl. Her
Angers woro smoothing out tho ruf
fles of hor snowy apron. "But I'm
going away. I'mcalled away." Thero
was an air of suppressed excitement
about her.
"Well, if you must go, I suppose
you must. But of courso you under
stand that if your placo is filled satis
factorily, you will in all probability
loso your Job here." ,
"I I didn't expect to keep It," she
answered simply, Sho walked out of
tho office, and as sho went sho felt as
strango as it sho had suddenly drop
pod from another planet.
After the lapse of two weeks sho
walked into tho manager's offlco again.
Tho mannger was busy and tho ono
glanco ho gavo her was followed by a
frown.
"Didn't I tell you tho other day,"
ho said Impatiently, going on with
his work, "that if you left your place
would not bo held for you?"
Tho words "tho other day" fell
strangely on her cars. She almost
gasped. "Tho other day." Why, it
seemed at least a thousand years.
"I haven't como to ask for my
placo again," she said. "I havo como
to tell you something to explain
something."
Tho busy manager glanced up im
patiently, "Well, please bo quick
about what you havo to say," ho said,
and turned In his chair to face her.
Thero was something In her look
that startled him out of himself. Ho
was a practical man, but ho was ono
of those who can seo subtler things
than thoy are sometimes given credit
for. Ho had seen this girl many
times, nlmblo and actlvo at her duties,
serving tho Interminable Httlo dishes
to hurrlqd diners. It was a part of
his own duty to seo to It that these
girls did their tasks well. But ho had
nover seen hor look as sho looked
now. Perhaps he had read of glori
fied faces. Ho may have seen them In
ptctures, and possibly heard them
Not a discontented girl,
tpoken of in church. He may havo
believed In something of that sort,
but he was not accustomed to see
them among dining room girls.
Her manner was quiet, but it was
a quietness underneath which ono
divined a wholo ocean of tumultuous
feeling, Sho spoke rapidly, but clear
ly and unhesitatingly.
"I havo como back to tell you all
about It," she said. "I havo come to
confess and let you do what Is right
I have counted the cost and I'm will
ing to pay. I want you to send me
to" prison. I am a thief. I have stolen

from you from tho- proprietors of
this place."
Sho paused. Tho mannger was
startled. Ho looked at her sharply,
doubting her sanity. This was an un
usual thing. This girl's honesty ho
would havo staked anything on, and
ho prided himself on knowing human
nature.
"What do you mean?" ho said.
"You must explain yourself."
"You. remember tho linen that was
missed, and some of tho silver-1 you
wore nil puzzled, and couldn't account
for It. I am tho thief."
"What are you saying, girl? And
"But but would that be right?" aha
said,
why aro .you confessing it now? What
mado you tako It, then, In the first
placo, and why not return It now?"
"I can't return It becauso I sold It
That's why I took it becauso I want
ed tho money. I didn't see any other
way, and I wanted to go away. I
wanted to seo tho mountains. They
seemed to call mo when I saw all
tho peoplo hero day after day going.
I wanted to go so many years all my
life and I had no money. I knew
that It would loso me everything, but
somehow I felt If I had tho mountains
to remember tho rest of my life, I
could stand It, In prison or anywhere."
"But if you had only kept still, you
would nover have been found out."
"Oh, It Is bo hard to make you
understand." she said. "Don't you see
that I never meant to steal and not
pay the penalty? I meant all the time
to pay the penalty. I donH think I
could havo done such a thing and
nover confessed. Oh, haven't you
ever In your life, wanted something
so much, and wanted It so long, that
you felt you would be willing to give
up everything else, even tho rest of
your life if you could only have that
ono thing. That's tho way it has been
with mo. I don't think I could help
having that feeling about tho moun
tains. It must havo been born In me
that that feeling for them. My
mother loved them and always said
that in a pralrio country sho was sure
sho could never live. Sho had been
born In tho mountains and thoy were
a part of her life. After awhile my
father left the mountain country and
my mother died wo all thought of a
broken heart. And I grew up and
never remembered seeing them, Jwt
always, always I longed for them. And
so many times I planned to go. 1
worked and worked, and saved and
saved, and always thero would bo
somewhere for the money. Once
father had a stroke of paralysis, and
thero was a doctor's bill, and again
my sister's baby died, and had to be
burled, and then again another sister
was going to be married and slid loved
pretty things, and I couldn't bear to
be selfish and uso the money for my
self. That's tho way It has always
been, and we've always been poor. I
worked for wages that were barely
enough to keep my soul and body to
gether. It seemed to mo that I could
never see my' mountains. . Therd was
no other way, I felt sometimes as It
I couldn't live very much longer If I
couldn't see them just onco. Especi
ally of summers after I came hore,
and saw so many tourists. It seemed
to eat Into my very soul the desire
to go. Then I thought of taking the
things and selling them. I knew It
was wicked, for I've always been an
honest girl, but I told myself that
there was nO other way. I would see
my mountains, and then I would come
back and tell you all, and you could
do what you will with me send me
to prison, I suppose. I know that will
bj right, and I am ready to go."
Sho stopped and. looked at him with
that glorified light still in her face.
Sho looked like one who has seen

Journeying slnco tho morning, and Is
satisfied with a mighty peaco at oven-!
lng. Tho manager looked at her, and!
knew that she spoke tho truth. For'
a moment thero was silence.
"I think I seo a Httlo how it has
been," ho snld. "I I believe I under
stand. Wo will arrange this between
ourselves, and you can go back to
yoUr old placo in tho morning."
For tho first time she faltered.
"But but would that be right?" sho
said. "I havo stolen. Mustn't I
oughtn't I to pay tho penalty?"
"Well, if .1 can arrange It to tho
satisfaction of everybody it will be all
right In this case I guess," ho said.
"You can work it out, you know."
"Oh, how good, how good you arel"
Tho manager turned away hastily
from that radiance In her face.
"Don't mention It," ho said, shortly.
"And If that's all, you may go now,"
ho said.
Tho next day In tho noisy dining
room, In her black dress, her white
collar and cuffs and her Httlo white
apron, she served Interminable little
dishes of meat and vegetables and
desserts to hungry travelers. In her
faco tho glory still lingered.
xUSE FOR A SCREEN.
Gov. Ames' Notion That It Might Pro
fitably Be Employed.
Oliver Ames, twlco governor of Mas
sachusetts, loved a good story, but his
friends all knew thnt any bit of pleas
antry Indulged in in his presence must
be of a nature all the world might
hear.
The Republican committeo of a city
in this state, together with several
stato campaign workers, wero gath
ered in a hotel reception room ono
afternoon prior to his first election.
Mr. Ames was writing at a table, and,
emboldenpd by tho gubernatorial can
dldnto's evident absorption, ono man
told a story which called forth some
shamefaced appreciation. On the
strength of tho bon mot, tho story
teller retired from the room, as ho
thought, In good order.
"Who Is that man?" asked Mr.
Ames, after tho door had closed.
"His name is Jones," some ono vol
unteered. "He's tho largest coal deal
er In this city."
"Well " said Mr. Ames deliberately,
"If he doesn't screen his coal any bet
ter than ho does his language, I would
not trade with him." Boston Herald.
Eccentric Logic.
In his "Reminiscences of Bench nnd
Bar" Mr. Sergeant Robinson has re
corded some cholco specimens of ec
centric logic in tho sentences pro-
nounced by Sergeant Arabln, a com
missioner of tho Central Court In
sentencing a prisoner convicted of
stealing property from his master ho
thus addressed him:
"Prisoner at tho bar, if over thero
was a clearer, case than this of a man
robbing his roaster, this caso Is that
case."
Again, In sentencing a man to a
comparatively light punishment, ho
used these words:
"Prisoner at tho bar, there are miti
gating circumstances in this case
which cause me to take a lenient view
of it, and I will therefore glvo you a
chance of redeeming a character that
you havo irretrievably lost."
He onco corrected a talkative wit
ness thus:
"My good man, don't go babbling on
so. Hold your tongue, and answer the
question that Is put to you."
Mother of Twenty-five Children.
Mrs. John Mello of Berkeloy, Cal.,
was born In the Azores forty-six years
ago. She began married lifo at the
ago of fifteen and has had twenty-flvo
children. She has been wedded twice.
Her first husband was tho father of
ten infants, and John Mello of fifteen.
Mrs. Mello la tho youngest of twenty
children by her own mother, and
knows of several additional half-brothers.
"I don't know Just how many,"
says Mrs. Mello; "I think ten, but
maybo more." After her marriage
Mrs. Mello came with her husband to
California. And before she was six
teen Manuel arrived to prove to his
grandfather that tho family tradition
was just as strong In the new land as
In tho old. Tho records of to-day show
twenty-five children In thirty years,
with seven pairs of twins among them,

How They Must Laugh.
How they must pity us they
That neither toll nor spin.
They that, having found the way.
Slyly slip their big hands in
And from the public crib keep taking out
What we are storing there!
How they must laugh at us who shout
The glories of our land, who swear
Allegiance to Its laws and soil
Our hands with hard bread-winning toll.
How they must smile at us thoy
That dwell 'mid luxuries.
And from our earnings, day by day,
Tako boldly what they please!
How ofton must they leer at us who hoe
And hew nnd sew and risk for bread;
How mean and feeble we below
Must seem to them. In heart and head:
With proud contempt they, far' above.
Still let' us live but not for love.
How they must rati at us they
That see us stupidly
Laboring for little pay.
And vainly fancying that we.
With worn-out moral codes and lack of
wit,
nest serve ourselves and God!
How. as we treasure bit by bit
Poor, dull workers near the sod
They oft must laugh, who take our gains.
And wonder at our dearth of brains!

Wold, "and as I came across an adver
