V "Borne folks lake up a different line of Lvoik outside of business as their hobby," freiates Father. f "So I've heard," admits Son. "I read about one chap who crocheted doilies when he didn't have anything else to do. That's 'my notion of no kind of a hobby to take up for fun. A stunt like that Is all right If a fellow Is runnnlng for office on the anti-tufrragette ticket, but outside of that 1 can't fall for It." "This doctor tells of a noted mualclan . who collects watches as a fad," goes on l ather. I , "here Is a bunch of chaps In this little J old town who do nothing else for a liv ing," says Son.

"Women are especially recommended' to cultivate hobbles so they can keep up an active Interest in life," urges Father. "The damea are ao busy cultivating hobble skirts and some of the other fifty seven varieties," asserts eon, "that I don't see where they can dope out a place on the card for any other entries." "Well," aungects Father, "he tells of Fight for Babies are not wanted In London flata, and as a rrsuU a three-cornered fight is lu liimdvin.

Next day the new cook, her trunk and the globe-trotting wool mattress arrived In Mountalnvllle. 8he could cook divinely. The menu of her dinners read llge a passport to heaven! Kvery evening the Post Graduate Husband was Introduced to some new culinary mas terpiece, but Invariably, as ha praised Its excellence, came some disquieting reflec- ! tlon as to Its cost. "She certainly can cook." K observed on evening as the buxom and black-eyed Marie pattered down the basement stairs. "but Just wait till the butcher's and gro cer's bills come In! I'm afraid, my dear, we're rather poor to affo.-d the luxury of such a first-class chef." The Amateur Wife smiled mysteriously. "Don't worry about the bills in advance," she answered lightly. "We'll know the worst soon enough. But you should have seen Marie's face, when I told her to give the washerwoman her dinner!" As though answering to the utterance of her name, there was a Sudden clutter upon the stairs and a flashing, heaving and highly enraged French woman burst Into the room. '. "Madame! Madame! Come quickly!" she called excitedly. "That woman has dared to touch the butter! I have explained to her that butter Is not for the domestics, but she understands not my language! It Is a crime a fin! As long as I have been In madatne's house I have never once eaten of the butter." The Amateur Wife smiled triumphantly at the Port Graduate Husband, who was lost In utter admiration. "Bay," he remarked contentedly as Maria disappeared, "she certainly Is a cracker jack! I'm glad. I discovered her." (Copyright, 1811, by the N. T.

Married men don't call that kind of work a hobby," empha sizes Son, "they call it graft." "There are any number of little things a married woman can take up for a hobby," bellevea Father. "Carrying up coal for the kitchen range Is one very pretty little idea that I have to suggest," Son promptly offers. "That not only takes up her time, but is fine exer cise, at the same time keeping hubby's temper in check by saving him from such sordid toll." "Wealthy men, of course," Father goes on, "have a much wider choice when It comes to selecting a hobby." "Hlghto!'' agreea Bon, "but at the same time even us poor white slaves can alwaya take up that most popular whim of the day." "I don't think I've heard about that," confesses Father.

John, 1:!: "Behold the Lamb of GodV John the Baptist Is the speaker of these words. I do not believe that we speak rashly when we say that, aside from the Adorable Trinity. John the Baptist Is one of the most unique characters of the entire Bible, tie undoubtedly had a tremendously hard place to fill. It was he more than anyone else that marks the transition from the old to the new dispensation. Transi tion is difficult for the most of us. As It were. John stood with one foot upon the Old Testament and with the other upon the New. But he was thoroughly qualified for the task, and we must be filled with admiration for his simplicity and genuine ness of character, fully able to cope with the task set for him to do. Tha words of the text express the life principle of this great man, and this thought la also expressed In the words of the subject. "Advertising Jesus." The busi ness man knows the absolute necessity of advertising In secular business, and after all there Is much analogy In the commer cial and sacred aspect of life. Let us notice the subject under a threefold division: First, the aim of advertising Jesus. The one word that expresses the aim more than any other ia information. We all know that it Is of supreme Importance In our earthly business to he Informed con cerning It. It Is also at once evident that they who know not the Gospel must be Informed or they will remain in darkness. When "an angel of the Lord spake unto Philip, saying, 'Arise and go toward the souH. unto the way that goeth down from Jerusalem unto Gaza.' he met an "-Ethiopian eunuch." The Kthlopian man very likely waa religious, for he was read ing the Bible. Philip asked: "L'n deratandest thou wVat thou read- est?" And he Said. "How can I, except someone shall guide me?" After some conversation we are told that Philip preached unto him.' In the tenth chapter of Romans 8t- Paul testifies that his heart's desire concerning Israel Is that they be saved. He Says: "They have a seal for God, but not according to knowl edge," "for whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." But how shall, they call upon him In whom they hk"Ve not believed? and how shall they believe In him-whom they have not heard? and how shall they hear without a preacher? anl how shall "they preach ex cept they be sent? In these Instances the argument Is information. A prodigious re sponsibility Is upon us that we who' know passion to the one who does not know that which has been of such untold value to us. Another aim of advertising Jesus to nourish. There must be a shepherding of tha flock or the seed of life will die. We have the command thrice from tha Lord Himself that Pater should feed the flock of Christ. W of this land are not so much called to tell of Jesus to people who have never heard of Him, but nourish the seed already planted. Second. Tha method of advertising; Jesus. It Is at ones evident History of Transportation (Copynght, 1011. by Union Pacltlo Ry, Co.) iCoiuplled by Charles J. Iane and D. C. Buell tor the Union Pacific School of Railroading for Employes.) (Continued from Yesterday.) The engine, "Locomotion No. 1," was notable because of the fact that the pis tons were linked dlreotty to cranks on the driving wheels, thus doing away with the toothed wheels previously employed. This engine on Its first trip hauled a train made up of thirty-four wagons, an aggre gate weight of about ninety tone, at an average speed of five miles per hour, and a maximum speed of twelve miles per hour. Notwithstanding the flattering ahowlng made, this locomotive waa employed only to a small extent on the road, It could not Lrompete In econoray with horses and was only used to handle a portion of the coal traffic. Locomotives were In disfavor at the time It became necessary to decide on the kind of motive power to be used on the Liver pool & Manchester railroad. Stephenson, after much persuasion, finally prevailed on the directors to consent to a public trial of locomotives, open to all, for a purse of tiDO. On April 25. 1829, the conditions of the trial were published and were as follows: - First The successful engine shall ef fectually consume Its own smoke. Second If its weight Is six tons, It must be capable of drawing after It, day by day, on a level plane, a train having a gross weight of twenty tons, Including tender and water tank, at the rate of ten miles an hour. Third The steam pressure must not ex ceed fifty pounds. Fourth There must be two safety valves, one of which must be completely oui of the r Loretta's .Looking It Is hard to refuse a beautiful vanity box with a seductive reason for not doing it In the shape of a monogram in fresh water pearls '. "If I do not take his expensive gifts, some other girl will. I know girls!" That la what you say to yourself. And you DO know girls. Only you confine the application ef your knowledge te "other girls." You carefully refuse to admit that you know yourself. On an occasion like this, with the vanity bog dangling enticingly before you, you do not want to know yourself. You keep up that senseless "other girt" argument, en couraging yourself to accept ths gift. 'Most girls say to take all you can get. And I believe it is the right way. Some body else will get what I do not take. And I might ae well have It. Besides, my monogram la on It" ' It la dona You tke the expensive gift unites . A eecobd thought comes! How does the S. X. Tartan, Faator of St. Luke's Luth eran Church, 85th and X Bts., Bo. Oinahe. that the method cannot be the same at all times. Tet we can see two main lines run ning through It all. We either make Christ known by word or deed. The two ways must be employed by each Individual. The one Is lame without the other, fit. Paul says In Homans, "with the mouth confession is made unto salvation." And In Matthew. "Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, hltn will I confess before my Father which la In heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which Is In heaven." This scripture Indi cates strongly that confession by the mouth la essential. It does seem contra dictory to believe In something and be so quiet concerning It, that the mouth will never express the Inner conviction. It Is certainly the spirit of the entire Bible that every individual will at some time make an open confession for the Lord's side. But the word testimony has a wider ap plication than mouth confession. We must advertise the deed. If we are not true to our confession our influence does not amount to anything. The Savior ever de nounces, the hypocrite In scathing terms. Emerson said: "What you are speaks so loud that I can't hear what you are eay Ing." Third The result of advertising Jesus. It develops the one that gives and the one upon whom tho giving Is bestowed. I care not In what sphere of life, anything not used will soon become unfit for use. We can not In any definite way arrive at any true estimate concerning results. Our motto ought to be, do our duty and leave the result with God. Tet sometimes to take a backward glance la interesting and profitable. For instance, had some of our great reformers of the sixteenth cen tury been derelict In their duty. It li hard telling wljat the world might be today. In the last place, It gives peace with God What an inexpressible joy to anyone. We sometimes speak of earthly satisfaction or J reach or control of the engineer, and neither of which can be fastened down. Fifth The engine and boiler must be supported on springs and carried on four wheels, the total height not to exceed fif teen feet. The. trial opened October 1. 1S29. Four engines were entered, but only three of them competed. The track on which the competition took place was only one and one-half miles long. Each engine had to traverse this track back and forth ten times, thirty miles In all. On October 14 the prize waa awarded to Stephenson's Rocket, the only one of the engines that fulfilled the requirements. The fcuccess of the Rocket In this com petition, which is remembered as the "Ralnhlll trial," silenced further opposi tion to the use of steam locomotives as the motive power of railroads. The Rocket had a cylindrical boiler six feet long and three feet in diameter. Ex tending through the lower half of the boiler were twenty-five copper tubes three Inches In diameter; these formed a pas sage from the firebox to the stack. There was an outside firebox surrounded oy a water space. The firebox was three foet deep and the grate was three feet wide and two feet long. The Inclined cylinders which wore fastened near the rear of the boiler were eight Inches In diameter and had a stroke of sixteen and one-half Inches. The driving wheels were four feet eight and one-half Inches In diameter. Draft was created by passing the exhaust steam from the cylinders into the stack. Thia en gine weighed about four and one-half tons and hauled thirteen tons at a speed or twenty-nine miles an hour (To be Continued.) Glass - Reflects Girl Who man think, how does he feel about the delicately disguised gieedineua with which girls snap up his gifts? If he has time and taste and money you can make up your mind that there Is no no particular novelty to blra In having hla presents taken. Why not give him a new experience In having one refused? Girls are regular grabbers! They take the flowera th he sends and count the number of roses. Why not offer a little opposition to his generosity? Tell him that you hesitate to accept flowera In bunches. Ask him to Bend you a single roue. It him see that you have sense enough to value the thought that .the one flower would Indicate more highly than you do the dollars that paid for the doaens.

We must write the music, whatever the song, Whatever Its rhyme or meter; And if It Is sad we can make It glad. Or If sweet, we can make It sweeter. f Nubs of Knowledge J Great Britain Imports 10.000.01 apples a yenr. Two-thirds of the world's supply of tin Is produced by Malaysia.

Every prospect fair to see Say from 9 a, m. to i. Filling all our hearts with glee; Then In spite of all our trust Comes along a windy gust And our eyes fill up with dust.

The message that the folksong bore Is true this taster day, Lends hope to those who hear Its words And cheers life's darker way. "Years back. In yonder pleasant grove," Thus speaks the graybeard seer, "A tree there was which lives no more; A punishment severe Once killed Its growth, for from Its grain Was cut the fateful cross. All verdure drooped and all mankind Felt burdened, with the loss. "But that Despair should not enthrall The guiltless on the earth. The lily's bloom s balm grew bright, A token of His worth; And as the blossom's birth was marked Its light ahotie clear above The darker lines of sorrowing life So Hope was sent through Love."

J idea direct from the girls themselvee. Girls do love to be seen wearing costly trophies that indicate their subjugation of a male. And they have a bad habit of being more proud of reducing a rich man to paying toll than a poor one. They ought to be ashamod of regarding any man's gifts as signs of their power. But they are not! They should have finer feelings than to Judge a man's heart by the price of his flowera. Why not conquer your barbaric love of display? Why not disturb this particular nan's belief that he has only to offer a high-priced novelty to have It instantly annexed? Why not refuse the vanity box because It Is too expensive? The thermometer of his appreciation will show its mercury fairly reeing up ward. And here's a prediction?
