TLEASIJ1G THE LITTLE OJVES The true pastor regards the little folk of his congregation as important members of his flock, and does not ig nore their small tastes and prefer ences. The two ministers quoted be low are wise in their day and genera tion, and will reap a harvest of con fidence as their tiny parishioners grow older. Not many Sundays ago a prominent New York clergyman preached an un usually long discourse, and the chil dren in the audience grew uneasy. At last one small boy, in tones loud enough to be heard in his neighbor hood, exclaimed with more force than elegance, "Hush up!” His horrified mother, fearful lest the remark should have reached the minister’s ears, soon made occasion to apologize to the pas tor. "My dear madam,” said the clergy man, “I wish I had heard the little fel low. It is time for me to stop when the children are so vfeary.” The pastor of a town church was calling on one of his parishioners when the little four-year-old daughter came into the room. "Have you ever been to church?” asked the pastor. "I went last Sunday.” “How did you like it?” "Pretty well, only you didn’t sing my hymn.” "And what is your hymn, little one?” “ ‘Jesus, tender Shepherd, hear me.’ ” “Well, little lass,” said the minister, “you come next Sunday and we will sing your hymn.” The next Sunday the large church was full. The little girl sat, eagerly waiting, close to her mother, who looked doubtfully around. “You must not be disappointed, dear, if your hymn isn’t Bung. There are so many people here, perhaps the choir will not care to sing a child’s hymn.” "But he promised, mamma,” replied the little girl, in entire confidence. The grownup folk who filled the many pews, and who knew nothing of the little girl, may have smiled when the choir softly sang, in place of the morning anthem, “Bless thy little lamb to-night,” but the little girl her self was content.—Y'outh’s Compan ion. HAD A/f \J/f WELCOME VISITOR John Philip Sousa has had some ex periences decidedly out of the ordi nary, but he himself is authority for the statement that he met with the most unusual, and perhaps the most terrifying, in a quiet little town in provincial England. “It was almost as bad as Edgar Allan Poe come to life,” says he. when relating the happening. “It was before I opened at the Alhambra last Spring, and the tour had been most trying. On the night in question I had turned in the very first minute I could get away after the evening concert, and I remember I was so tired that I never touched the fruit and sandwiches always left in my bedroom. I slept like a log, of course, though once I wakened (as I recalled the next morning), thinking I heard the plate pushed about on the lunch eon table. I think I sat up in bed and looked around, but I'm sure I saw nothing, and I was asleep again an instant later. “Next morning I was conscious of the entry of the man with the hot water, but what brought me really to my senses was his exclamation that the room was ‘all In a mess.’ It surely was. There were black footmarks everywhere, on the furniture, on the carpet, even on the dresser; the bed itself being about the only spot not trodden upon. The sandwiches were gone; so was the fruit. As I climbed into my dressing gown I had a hazy idea of discovering a tramp some where about, but a moment later I had seen that the footprints came trom a big climney place and appar ently returned there again. ‘We'll smoke him out,’ said I. “Before the blaze from the morn ing’s paper had got a good start there j tumbled down from that chimney a : baboon nearly as big as I am. The, way the valet and I got out into the | hall was a sight to see. We slammed i the door after us and sent in an i alarm. Twenty minutes later one of the keepers from a nearby circus was unconcernedly leading off the tamest, meekest monkey of his size in the world. “But it was a startling thing to have happen before breakfast! There | was a little too much of “The Mur ders in the Rue Morgue’ about it.” STEEL SQ'UA'RES FROM SAWS The first steel square was made by Silas Hawes at South Shaftsbury, Vt., ninety-five years ago. and the indus try is still carried on at the same ; place. . Hawes was a blacksmith and wheel wright and was called upon to do some repairing to the cart of a ped dler. These fellows were always re luctant to let any hard coin get away from them and whenever possible they paid their bills by making some sort of trade. On this particular occasion the ped dler had in his cart a number of saws which had been discarded as worn past redemption and Hawes, conceiv ing the idea that he could make use of them, took several of them in lieu of payment for the work he had done. He cut these lengths of metal up into suitable sizes and made squares and rules of them. The tools became popular at once and sold for $5 and $6, most of the business being done through the ped dler who had been the means of bringing the saws to Mr. Hawes. At first the blacksmith made the tools only at odd times when he had nothing else on hand, but the demand became so great that he had to make special arrangements for their manu facture. and the industry grew into one of rather imposing proportions. Mr. Hawes had been engaged in the manufacture of the squares for several years before it occurred to him to take out a patent on the new implement. He did this ultimately and began the manufacture of them in earnest, erecting a factory for this purpose. The plant has been enlarged sev eral times, but steel squares are now made on the site where the first one was laboriously formed by the old blacksmith. TL Ay TIME OF BACHELOR BILL Our uncle Bill’s a bachelor, an’ it’s an awful shame ’Cuz he knows stories about bears an’ knows ’em all by name. An’ growls ’ist like a really one an’ makes you think a bear Is underneath th' table, but of course it isn't there. An’ w’en he takes you on his knee he talks ’ist like a book An’ after w’ile your eyes get big an’ you’re a-scart to look W’en he says: “Nen a bear come out an’ ’ist went Boo-oo-oo!” Becuz you almost think a bear is really after you. An ’en he plays wild Indian an’ hides himself somewheres W’ile we look in th’ comers an’ behind th’ parlor chairs. An’ peek in th’ dark closets an’ p’tend we’re on a scout Till after w’ile he makes a hoop an’ en’ comes rushin’ out ’1st like he's on th' warpath; an’ us chin nern run upstairs An’ hide in mamma's closet an’ he makes us think at bears Are cornin' in to get us an’ he growls 'ist like he’s one. An’ my! we’re turble scart an’ yet it's awful lots o’ fun. An’ ’en he is a pirate an’ he makes vs chinnern play ’At we are in a shipw’reck an’ th* crew is cast away Upon a desert island w’ere his treasure chest is hid. An’ we are only sailors an’ his name is Capiain Kidd. An’ w'en wTe hear him cornin’ he ’ist roars an’ ’en we run. Cuz he has broonjsticks for a sword an* pokers for a gun. An’ after w’ile he kills us all but it don’t hurt, an’ w’en He sails away in his big ship we come to life again. ’En after w’ile our mother comes an’ taps him on th‘ head. An’ says it's time for bears an’ scouts an' things to be in bed. An’ leads us chinnern all upstairs an’ maybe if we keep Right still she’ll let th’ candle burn until we go to sleep. ’En after w’ile our uncle Bill comes up tc say goodnight. An’ sees how snug an' warm we are an’ all tucked in so tight. An’ ’en he kisses us goodnight an’ ’en his eyes ’ist blur: I guess we make him sorry ’at he is a bachelor! —J. W. Foley in New York Times. ©*. WILSOfTS COOT) V'RA.yE'R Away back In the forties George E. Briekett and Moses S. Wilson were classmates in college and were also roommates. In after life both be came eminent and highly respected members of the medical profession. Many thousand people in Maine and all over New England will remember Dr. George E. Briekett as surgeon in charge of the Cony United States general hospital at Augusta. Maine, during the civil war. Dr. Wilson prac ticed medicine in Lincoln, Maine, for upward of fifty years. Both Briekett and Wilson were de cidedly of the "wideawake” class of students. Wilson, especially, was of a wild, rollicking nature, not in the least inclined to "serious” thoughts. A revival of religion of more than usual interest, was in progress, and many of the students were drawn into the vortex. But no one supposed that Mose Wilson could be affected or In fluenced in the slightest degree by any religious movement. Brickett one evening strolled into the revival meeting, as much out of curiosity as anything, and, to his great surprise, saw Wilson there on his knees, in the midst of a very fervent prayer, which greatly moved the hearts of all his hearers. After meeting was over Brickett and Wilson went directly to their room. Wilson’s sudden conversion was so surprising that Brickett, out of deli cacy, refrained from mentioning the matter to 'his friend, and the subject was not mentioned by either until, just before getting ready to jump into bed, Wilson, with all the solemnity of an elder, turned to his friend with the question: “Brickett, didn’t X make a darned good prayer.” WHy HE WAS WAITING Lawyer Charles F. Eddy, a suc cessful practitioner of the old school, has long enjoyed a reputation for dry humor and caustic sarcasm, says a writer in the Boston Herald. He talks in a distinct, deliberate man ner, with a deep bass voice, and has a high regard for personal and pro fessional dignity and is scrupulous in his observances of it One day a gentleman who was wont to intrude himself upon the old gentleman caught up with him on the street. This gentleman had with him a dog of the Irish setter breed. The youngsters about the streets had taken a fancy to the dog, and at their commands to “set,” “charge,” etc., he was prone to at tend. The company of the man or the dog was therefore not desirable to Mr. Eddy. The undesirable man with the un desirable dog having caught up with the old gentleman, an effusive greet ing was extended, but not so enthus iastically responded to by Mr. Eddy, who stood still and, with his chin in his hand, appeared to be lost in thought. After a moment or two the man with the dog asked: “Aren’t you go ing my way, Mr. Eddy?” “Yes, I intend to go in that direc tion, sir.” "Well, what are you waiting for, Mr. Eddy?” “I am waiting, sir, for you and your d—d dog to get up the street.” 1 Steadying the Mind. The mind of most of us wants steadying many times a day. It is like a compass on a rickety table; the least stir makes the needle swing round and point wrongly. But give it a moment to settle—tnen it points true. There is almost divine virtue in silence. Drop the thing that worries you. the annoyance which inflames your temper. Profanity as a Curative. The theory is now being advanced by a continental doctor that the tact that ladies are not allowed to swear is responsible for a vast majority of the attacks of nerves from which the gen tle sex suffers, and it is suggested that expletives should be taught at every girls' school.—London runca.

Two Relate their Experiences. fTV.« ^____ ! the most critical period of a woman’s existence, and the anxiety felt by women as it draws near is not without reason. Every woman who neglects the care of her health at this time in ; vites disease and pain. W hen her system is in I a deranged condition, or she is predisposed to apoplexy, or congestion of any organ, the ten dency is at this period likely to become active —and with a host of ner vous irritations make life a burden. At this time, also, cancers and tumors are more liable to form and begin their destructive work. Such warning symp toms as sense of suffo cation, hot flashes, head aches, backaches, dread of impending evil, timid ity, sounds in the ears, palpitation of the heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities, constipa tion, variable appetite, weakness, inquietude, and dizziness, are promptly heeded by in telligent women who are _ x 1 _■ J XsMrs.AE'.GMytand S ^o«o QaMoaao n onans o □ aaaoao bo d in life when woman's great change may be expected.

It invigorates and strengthens the female organism and builds up the weakened nervous system. For special advice regarding this im portant period women are invited to write to Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., and it will be furnished absolutely free of charge.

Read what Lydia E. Pinkham’s Com pound did for Mrs. Hyland and Mrs. Hinkle: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:— “ I had been suffering with displacement of the organs for years and was jutssing through the change of life. My abdomen was badly swollen; my stomach was sore; I had dizzy spells, sick headaches, and was verv nervous. “ I wrote you for advice and commenced treatment with Lydia E. Pinkham's Vege table Compound as you directed, and 1 am happy to Bay that all those distressing symp toms left me and I have passed safely through the change of life, a well woman. I am recommending your medicine to all my friends.”—Mrs. Annie E. 0. Hyland, ChesLsr town, Md. Another Woman’s Case. “ During change of life words cannot ex press what I suffered. My physician said I had a cancerous condition of the female organs. One day I read some of the testi monials of women who had been cured by Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable Compound, and I decided to try it and to write you for advice. Your medicine made me a well woman, and all my bad symptoms soon disappeared. “ I advise every woman at this period of life to take vour medicine and write you for ad vice.”—Mrs. Lizzie Hinkle, Salem.
