With his friend and clasBmnto of old University of I'cnn sylvaufa days, Edward Poll, ho c'atuu hero recently for a visit. Tho especial attraction which "Bridgeport held for Poll was a young woman who was then visiting Mius Ituth B. Ailing, the attractive- daugh ter ot Noycs B. Ailing, who conducts several rubber stores. Naturally Poll and Barber were frequent visitors at tho Ailing homo during tholr Btay. Homo days ago Barber, in opening his mail, found a postal from Miss Ailing. Sho had "just dropped him a lino" to let hi ni know sho was to be married to John B. Wrlglo, manager of tho Brldgoport Compressed Paper Box company. Sho "hoped ho would wish her happiness" in her engage ment and subsequent marriage. Barber did wish her happiness all tho happiness in tho world but ho was dotcrmlncd ho would bo tho one who would bring her this bountiful happiness. Puts In Lonn-Dlotance Call. Tho young man hastened to the nearest longdlstnnco telephone. He called tho Ailing homo, got Miss Ailing on tho wlro, having preai ranged with tho Wllkes-Barro operator that no mat ter how high tho tolls rose ho must not bo interrupted. Thero is llttlo likelihood of nnyono ever knowing, including Barber him self. Just what was said in that con versation or how it was said, but it was eminently stisfactory and effec tive Barber, in consequence, took tho next train for Bridgeport. Ho did not j announco his arrival hero, but ho and Miss Ailing, a fow hours later, might I have been observed on a train bound for Now York. Thoir destination thoro was tho city hall. A licenso was pro cured. It was no aldermanlc holiday and but what's tho uso? You know the rest. This is not tho end, however. Mr. Wrlgle, happy in tho part of Miss He Called Up the Ailing Home. Alllng's accepted sweetheart, knocked gayly at her front door tho very day she and Barbor had left for New York on aldermanlc business. Mis. Ailing jamo to the door. "Where is ftuth?" asked tho ac cepted ono. And then he had to bo told. SHOT A COON? HERE'S ALIBI Two Men Fired at It All Night, but It Was a Crow's Nest Instead of a Coon, Ashtabula, O. Halo Brltton of Rich mond Center started down his pasture lano a few night ago, when his dog struck a coon trail and soon landed the coon up a trco. Britton went to tho houso for a shot gun, and when ho returned ho could just 8co tho coon high up in tho top of tho tree. Ilu shot at tho animal sev eral times, then decided tho shotgun was too short rango to reach him. Aft er telling his dog to keop a closo watch, Britton went over to D. Tink hnm'ii house, and the two retuined with Tlnkhnm'a riflo. From thru on until one o'clock they took turns (iring at tho coon. Finally thoy built n flro und watted until daylight. Then thoy learned tho coon they had boon shooting at all night was a crow's nest. Found "Dend" Father in Poorhouse. Rudd, la. Mrs. K. V.

James Kelr Hardlo, tho British labor leader, whoso death is announced, nover relinquished his working-class garb, and many wore tho occasions when his rough attire led to mistakes on the part of others. One story Is that Kelr Hardlo, then many years an M. P., was challenged by n policeman outside the house of commons. Tho ofllccr asked Mr. Hardlo If ho was working there. "Yes." "On tho roof?" (which was undergoing repair). "No," answered the leader of tho Indepen dent labor party, "on tho Iloor." An other timo a landlady refused to let him have rooms until ho gave refer encos ho looked too rough. Tho good woman was astonished whon Mr. Har dlo named a number of the most prom Innnt men In commons. He was ar rested in Belgium a fow years ago on suspicion of being in collusion with a notorious uuaichlBt whom tho pollco had detained. Tho Bolglan pollco nov er could understand why a British M, P. was not claboratoly attired. .saX5issjls AM is S'mEF. ' If r v mi mmmmmrmmm' .. -ff3 This Is a great and most intensely Interesting boy's story. For thirty years two great heroes, Klljah and Ulnlm, fought against Baal. Thoy stood up against kings and people, and fought for pure morals as the champions of Jehovah, Jehoshaphat, a good mini, allowed his sou to marry Jeebel'H daughter and tho nation reaped the i vaults. The son of this union reigned over J ml ah but one year and was Alain by Jehu, the dcHtroyer of Allah's dynnsty. Athullah, as dow ager queen regent ruled for ulx yearsj (See t Chrnu. 22). (icuorul Jehu wrought in the northern kingdom, heneo tho temporary escape of this child of .leehrl, tho cursed queen. I. Concealment, vv. 1-3. Jehosheba, tho wife oi' Joholada, tho high priest in rhargo of the temple, is thought to bo tho daughter of Joram by another wife than Ath.'illah. Sho was the agent In Cod's hands of saving the boy's life and of the llnal extinguishment of tho Bccd of Aluib. Jehoshoba, as daughter of on-t king, sister of another and high priest's wife, was familiar with every nook and corner of the templo, and "so a woman's rutlileBHiiess was out witted by a woman's cunning. 'Far rar. Thus God saved the seed of Da vid according to his Word (Psalms 8U:3, 4). II. Conspiracy, vv. 4-8. Athallah's bloody iclgn Is ono of the darkest MiKeu in tho history of Judith. Sim murdered not her own children but her grandchildren to gain, or rathor to continue, hor rule, for as her son'n counselor uho was tho real ruler of :ho nation (II Kings 8:2G,27; II Chron. 22:n, 4). Cod bad mado a promise (ch. 8:19; Isa. 7:C; Jer. :17-26) and that promlau must bo rullllled, for no evil enn thwart his will. Athallah is a terriblo oxmnplo of unrestrained heredity. Wo have hero tho results of an unholy alliance Thin 1b also an appalling examplo of tho fruit of Belilsh ambition: (a) upon tho nation, (b) on tho family, (c) on tho Individ ual. As against this picturo wo sco a con secrated woman, a dovotod homo and tho teaching of a pious priest, the final outcomo ot which was tho over throw of evil. This priest and his wlfo took certain othor traits Joash Inherited from his vilo ancestors, such itB courugo, cnorgy, Bklll and porso voranco, and, training them undor right nnd pious environment, turned them to tho blessing of tho nation. Tho early formatlvo period of this boy's llfo was thus spent In Buch a way ns to result In continuous bless ing throughout hto rolgn (12:1, 2). III. Crowning, vv. 9-12 (to v. 16). It was a great scrvico tho priest and his wlfo rendered to Juduh to save and to train n child. So likewlso wo aro priv ileged, and thoso who aro truly saved and rightly trained will also ulti mately bo crowned (II Tim. 4:8; I Peter 5:14; Rev. 2:10). Thoro aro two accounts of tho coro nation ceremonies (soo also II Chron. 22:10-23:21); they differ but do not conflict. Tho llvo captains and 500 bodyguards wrought a groat work on that Sabbath day I5very man In tho conspiracy did oxactly as told. Joash is brought out at tho exact moment. So also will our king appear at God's appolntod tlmo. Tho law is placed In his hands (v. 12, Ex. 25:10; Ps. 78:5; Isa. 8:16, 20). This controverts thoso who would havo us bollovo the law was not written until Joash reigned. Asldo from tho law which was placed In his hands a crown waB placod on his head and thero was also tho cus tomary shouting and clapping of hands nnd cries of "God save tho king" (Am. R. V.) which accompany such occa sions. IV. Conclusion. (1) Our Young Kings (and Queens). For everyone ot our boys and girls thoro is awaiting a kingdom. Each Is surrounded by dan gers even as Joash. Their only safety is In God, in tho love and power ot his holy spirit, tho knowlcdgo ot his word, tho caro and culture of his church, tho guldanco and lufluonco of homes which belong to him. (2) The Bible and the Coronation. Tho chief and most Important part of tho coronation was to place tho word of God In tho young king's "hand. "Thy word havo I hid in my heart that 1 might not sin nyalnst thee." If is tho royal law, llfo, llvoly oracles, food, light and wisdom for king and subject alike (3) The Anointed King. Symbolical ly Joash received tho holy spirit that ho might know how and havo power to llvo and govern by tho law Just placed in his hands. (I Sam. 10:16; 10:13; Acts 4:27; Hob. 1:9). Such anointed ones aro kings and quoons ami tholr lives aro u benedic tion to nil tho world. (4) The Eclipse of Evil. Tho ono who was most guilty, who took tho sword that sho might rulo, was tho first to cry treason. Her cry could not any longer hold buck tho purposes ot God and she mis erably perished.
