The Order of Owls
is a secret society of good fellows who believe in love,
laughter and the Kingdom of Heaven on earth. It .does
not believe in.postponing one's enjoyment until death. It
teaches good cheer.
It's Creed Is
If you have a flower to give, give it today. One
throb of gladness is worth more to the living than a
wealth of costly blooms laid however tenderly above the
dead. If you have a kindly visit to make it today lest
another step in and lay his quiet hand upon the longing
heart and still forever its fret and pain and power of glad -response.
In the city of the dead, in the silence of the
grave, hearts are never lonely any more. They have no
need or need.

VALUABLE AS HONEY FINDER
Bee Cuckoo of Africa of Great Service
to the Natives and Protected
by Them.
One of the most sagacious of birds
is certainly the bee cuckoo, or moroc,
a little bird very like the English
sparrow.
It is found in various parts of Afri
ca where wild bees abouhuand, being
unable to help itself to the honey,
which is Its favorite food, it resorts
to human aid.
Having discovered a swarm of bees,
it flies to the nearest habitation, and
attracts by its cries of, "Cherr, cherr,
cherr," the attention of some) of the
natives. It then flies off in the direc
tion of the nest, uttering its cry and
waiting for its followers to overtake
it. Should they be tardy it' returns
to meet them, and seems as if trying
to urge them on to greater speed, the
natives answering it with a low whis
tle. Arrived at its destination, it la si
lent, waiting patiently on the bough
of a neighboring tree while its hu
man friends, dig out the nest, a good
share of the honey on the comb con
taining the bee maggots, being left by
them for their feathered guide.
The natives never injure this, bird,
and always prevent travelers from
shooting it.
The Blue Bird.
When nature made the blue bird she
wished to propitiate both the sky and
the earth, so she gave him the color
of one on his back and the hue of the
other on his breast, and ordained that
his appearance in spring should de
note that the strife and war between
these two elements was at an end. He
is the peace harbinger; in him the ce
lestial and the terrestral strike hands,
and are fast friends. He means the
furrow and he means the warmth; he
means all the soft, waving influences
of 'the spring on the one hand, and the
retreating footsteps of winter on the
other. After you have seen the blue
bird you will see no more cold, no
more snow, no more whiter. He brings
soft skies and the ruddy brown of the
fields. It is sure to be a bright March
morning when you first hear his note,
and it is as if the milder influences up
above had found a voice and let a
-word fall upon the ear, so tender hi
it and so prophetic a hope tinged with
a regret John Burranghs.
Young Life's Greatest Tragedy.

ONCE HOME OF PAUL REVERE
Dwelling of the Patriot, Is Now the
Oldest House Standing in
Boston.
Built some time between 1650 and
1680 in the very heart of Boston, in the
sld North end, the Paul Revere house
is the oldest house in Boston.
The house was purchased by Paul
Revere in 1770 and here he lived until
1800, through the stirring revolution
ary times. From the door of this house
he went forth on his famous ride on
April 10, 1775.
In restoring the house, the Paul Re
vere Memorial association, which un
dertook the work, did not try to make
simply a' quaint old home; its sole en
deavor was faithfully .to restore it to
as nearly its original condition as pos
sible, says the Boston Post.
From being a modern- three-story
building and L, with a store on the
.ground floor, the house has now been
brought back to the little, low-studded,
two-story dwelling house and L, with
a sharply pitched roof covered with
hand-made shingles; the second story
projecting and overhanging the first.
This was done by removing the vari
ous additions and destroying changes
that had been made since Paul Revere
lived there.
In removing all these later additions
and rechanging the changes, much
time, money and work was spedt in de
termining the lines of the old roof, the
Immense chimney and fireplace, the,
original position of the windows,
doors, etc., and preserving every piece
of old molding, beam and woodwork
that was found, In order that the new
should be an exact reproduction of the
original. The old oak-hewn beams that
may be seen throughout the house are
most of them the old original beams,
which in only a few cases had to be
pieced out. AH the old wood taken
from the house was preserved.
THE PARTING OF THE WAYS.
Only One Idea Suggested Itself to
Uncle Ransom If Separation
Had to Come.
"Uncle Ransom," said the planter,
"you rode my best horse 20 miles to
that festival Saturday night; you kept
him out all day Sunday and nearly
killed him Sunday night. How many
times have I told you to let my horses
rest on Sunday?"
"Yes. suh, Marse Robert, dat's so,
but M
"How many times have I told you
if you didn't quit that, you and I
couldn't get along together on this
place?"
"Dat sho' Is the trufe, Marse Rob
ert. You pl'ntedly tole me dat but
you knows a nigger, he jes' nacherly
forglts."
"Every negro on this place believes
that he can do exactly as he pleases."
"Dar now, bless Gawd, you sho
spoke a parable; dese young niggers
Is glttln' mighUy triflln'."
"It has come to this. Ransom;
Reveille is not big enough for you
and me. To-morrow morning we part;
you go your way and I go mine."
"Yes, suh."
The old negro looked sorely trou
bled and bewildered. He glanced over
his shoulder at the rippling lake, th&
open cotton, the perfectly level fields.
Ransom had been born on Reveille
and had never known any other home
His heart. went out in supreme pity
for the man who had to leave i&

HIS VIEW THAT OF MANY MEN

- Oe Ne Warfc
Harking back to women and their
unploymeats, I read aosaewaere lately
a good story of Jilrs. Runclman, wife ot
the president of the board of educa
tion, or, rather a good story told by
tor. Mrs. Rundman addressed the. pu
pils of the high school at Bromley and
said among, other things that she ap
proved of marriage aa a profession for
woaea because most people thought If
women-stayed at home to look after, a
house they did bo work. To emphasize
this she told a atory. A growing boy
had obtained a small Job his first
and boasted how much work he did.
'I gets-up at half-past five o'clock and
haa my breakfast," ys he. "Anyone
flee get up, too?" he waa asked. "Oh,'
yea mother; ska gets ae breakfast,
and tkea aha gets dad's at half-past
ix." "And yonr dinner?" "Oh, moth
er geta that, too; and then she gets
father's." "Has she the afternoon to
herself?" ""Oh, no; she cleans up,
looks after the children, gets the tea
for dad and me when we come home.
We'gets our smoke and then we gets
to bed." "And your mother?" "Well,
she does a bit of sewing then, when all
Is cleared up after tea." "What wages
do you get?" the boy was asked. "Oh,
I get ten bob, and dad gets 35." "And
your mother?" "Mother! She don't
get no wages; she don't do no work."

NON-PAYING HOTEL PATRONS.
Inevitable Expense That Proprietors
of New York Hostelries Must
Be Prepared Fer.
The proprietor of one of the largest
hotels in New York, speaking of the
uses made by non-paying customers of
his house,, said to a rural guest a few
days ago: "We have a large number -of
patrons from whom we never col
lect a cent, although we have no such
thing as a. free list They come here
in the morning, pick up a -cast-off pa
per, which tbey'read, keeping an eye
open for another, which they grab as
soon as it is dropped. After reading
awhile they stand at the ticker, often
giving long lectures to their fellows
on financial conditions and stock pos
sibilities.' The overcoat becomes bur
densome, and it is taken to the. check
room, where, its owner knows it will
be perfectly safe. Then, if they can
tear themselves from the ticker, let
ters are written on our stationery.
They do not use our telephones, be
cause we charge an extra five cents
for the call, but they carry home
matches, toothpicks, blank cards and
blotters, and use up the soap in our
lavatories. They also take generous
nibbles of the cheese and crackers in
the cafe. The strangest part of all is
this, that the majority of this class
are well to do and highly respectable,
and on that account we do not shut
them out" - r.f
Unreasonably Tough.
Grlmstead, who was a foreman in a
New England factory, was visited one
day by an'rold friend from the west
"Old man," salt his friend, "how long
have you been working in this mill?"
"Nearly thirty-five years," he an
swered. "Isn't it customary in establish
ments of this kind, when a man has
been' in its employ as long as you
have, to retire him on a regular stipend
a sort of honorarium, as it were?"
"To put him on the pension list, do
you mean?"
"Yes, if that's what you call it"
"Well, yes, it is."
, "When do you, suppose they'll retire
you?"
"I suppose they'd do it any time
they thought I wanted to be retired,"
said the old foreman, shaking his
head with profound sadness, "but 1
don't want to quit so long as I'm
still .capable of doing my work.
"I've been keeping tab on myself,
and the misery of it is, Wigfall, that
I haven't begun to let up the least bit.
I'm Just as good as ever!" Youth's

turned to the boy: "How do you spell
Isaiah. Henry?" he asked. "I-s-ai-ah."
said Henry. "You'll do," said Mr. An

story to a skeptic neighbor. "But how
did you know how to spell it, Henry?"
asked the neighbor. "I saw him write
it down." said Henry.

The beginning was at Capetown, when Blake and Winthrope

the ship went to pieces in a cyclone on a wild and isolated coast, and
these three the American enpneer. the Fnsjishman, and the heiress

brought face to face with the primitive, what law could prevail but
