WINIFRED BLACK
It Is sad today, tho great face up there
on top of the mountain. Have you ever
seen such a facoT
Who carved It, I wonder? Ages and
ages ago did the
wild waters know
what It was they
wrought when thoy
rushed over the
great boulders and
eang and surged
and cut the face In
the great rocks?
There It Is, day
and night, the great
calm face, lying
with Its eyes up to
tho sky, and the
clouds sail above
and the winds sing
below and still the
great face lies there
for all to Bee.
There wero great
doings In ' the valley once. Some one
found a pocket full of gold there In tho
canyon by the rushing waters and the
whole place swarmed with men and
women followed, and the quiet night was
raucous with wild songs. Gold, gold
that's what they all wanted gold. What
did thoy care for the peace of th valley
or. the calm of tho great mountain? Qold,
that was what they were after. Btraritre'
the fever that burns us when wo hear the
very name.
Tho other day I drove high abovo tim
ber line.
It was a sight to take tho breath away.
While we stood gazing the driver spoke!
"There." ho said, pointing with his
whip. "There that's Simpson's Dream;
that hole down there. Simpson took $10,-
COO In twenty-four hours out of that hole."
And every one of us turned our eager
eyes from the glory of tho sky and the
splendor of the spreading earth and and
looked earnestly, eagerly, with a vivid
Interest at a ulrty hole In tho grodnd be
cause Simpson, whoever he might be,
took $10,000 worth of gold out of It once
years and yenrs ago.
How the gods must laugh at our strango
Infatuatlonst ,
Poor Simpson he had hla day of de
lirium. What did It profit him?
Ho died drunk and raving after ho
had spent his il 0,000, and tho wife' of his
youth was ashamed to lay a flower on
his dishonored grave and the boy sho
named for Simpson would rather you
didn't ask about him If you pleaso.
Now, .If he had only watched the face
there on the hills the great, calm face,
and had drawn strength and peace from
thatt-how much better off he would havo
been.
"Come," the mountains call, "come,
little, tired, anxious, worried, eager,
quarreling children. Come, you are
thirsty; I will glvo you to drink. You
are hungry, there is plenty to eat here
and to Bpare. Sea how light tho trees
feathqr Into a canopy for your sleeping
room .Peace, Joy, health, faith, trust,
love all these I have for you here."
And we laugh bitterly and turn away
TuTU let the hole In the ground speak
"gold, gold, gold for the digging sorrow,
greed, care work without ceasing, the
forgetfulness of one we once loved age-
before the time for age bitterness while
the brow is smooth, distrust, envy all
this I offer you," and" how we run to
answer poor blind fools that we are.
What do you think of-us face there on
the mountain? How sad you look. Here
comes one who laughs a girl with a let
ter from her sweetheart crackling In her
bosom "The face smiles," says the girl,
"see how the face smiles."
And here comes one in angerone he
trusted has betrayed him.
"The face is cruel," says the man In
anget-"lt sneers at me and my sorrow."
And to me, who mourn for what never
can be mine again the face looks mourn
ful and full of sadness can It be that
you never change at all face there on
the mountain, and that It Is we who are
sad and angry or gay- and we see our
selves reflected In your look?
It I make my world myself It shall be
a happy one trust me for that, oh, face
of calm content.
Come; the sun shines, the winds sing,
the waters rush by, who shall bring sad
ness to my heart or to your brow, oh.
faco otcalm delight?
My world Is my own. I'll make It what
I will a happy-one.

The name "microbe" Is ono that gener
ally Inspires terror because of all tho
wonderful discoveries that have fJeen
made concerning the fearful death-dealing
powers that
many microbes
possers.
nut, In a most
interesestlng a r -tide
In Hearst's
Mngaxlno for July,
Sir William Ram
sny has just
pointed out hqw
microbes may be(
and arc. engaged
as allies of mnnt
cither by chang
ing their malig
nant natuto, or by
Retting them to
wur upon other mlnuto foes with which
we cannot ouroelves dtrcctly fight.
In somo cases the services which mi
crobes are able to render In the battle
against disease might be compared to
that of fleets of small armed boats sent
out from, n squadron of battleships to en
ter the shallow and hidden creeks and
coves on nn enomy's coast, and attack
th foe In positions unnpproachablo to" the
heavy vcescls.
Our trained microbe allies may race
through our blood and penetrate the most
recrrt regions of our bodies, cither de
stroying the enemies already lurking
there, or laying wasto the territory
against their advance by depriving It of
the means of subsistence upon which tho
Invaders must depend.
And nil this may be dono without harm
to the tlasUcs or the functions of tho
bods'.
Such beneficent microbes are like
scouts and guerltRs, and where they
havo skirmished the enemy is found to
be so disorganized and broken up that It
can be swept out of existence.
A dramattc-exampio of the way In which
the discovery was made that microbes
can. as Professor Ramsay says, bo "har
nessed" for useful work. Is afforded by
Pasteur's experience with "chlckon chol"
era." He had been Inoculating healthy
chickens with microbes taken from fowls
Infected with the disease, In order to
slwly its method of development. The
vacation perlert came along, and Pasteur
went away, leaving somo of the culturos
of microbes In his laboratory. When he
returned ho resumed his experiments with
the microbes that had been left over, nnd
which seemed, as far as appearances
went,' to be a virulent as ever.
' But, to his astonishment, when ho In
oculated them Into healthy chickens, tho
latter went nbout their galllnacoous (hen
like) affairs with their usual zest and
good appetite, and did not dovelop disease
of any kind, Here was an opportunity
for genius, and Pasteur wan a genius.
Instantly he set-to -work to find out the
reason for the Immunity of tho chickens
from so deadly an enemy. First he In
oculntcd them over again with microbes
taken fresh from fowls thnt had. tho
cholera. But the chickens remained as.
lively and healthy as ever. Then he found
out that If the microbes wero exposed for
a long' time to the air, at a certain tem
perature, they lost their virulence, they
could no longer communicate disease, but '
thev could, like scavengers, remove from Here they hre; First nnd most Important,
the blood of chickens Into which they i keep up. ICoep up and ahead of what

Professor Ramsay shows that microbes
can be employed not only In combating
disease, but in aldlngman In a hundred
other ways. For Instance, the prepara
tlon of tea, the curing of tobacco and the
manufacture of butter and cheese aro
all processes conducted through the in
tervention of our microbe friends, which
are falling more and more under our con-
trol and guidance. Bclonce Is teaching j

Why Women Keep
If you have ever taken much notice In
church of those of the congregation who
nod drowsily or even go to sleep, you will
have found that It Is the men who dp this
and not the women. If s doubtful if one
woman to a thousand go to sleep in
church and people have long held an en
tirely wrong impression of this.
It has been said that the men are a bit
J more stupid, that theydo.notpay enough
attention to tne sermon or qojnot compre
hend It sufficiently to retain their Interest
and hence get sleepy. It haa also" been
said that women are brighter, quicker
to understand and have more self control
and so do not lose Interest and close their
eyes In slumber whllo the minister la
preaching.
But all this la quite wrong. A German
professor has been making a study of this
and he declares that men fall asleep In
church because; they do pay more atten
tion to tho sermon than do the women.
Further, he declares the average woman
doei net begin to grasp tho purport of
tho sermon, that sho Is far slower, of
understanding than man. J
The man will watch the minister every
minute, he will concentrate all his mind
upor the proacher and what he Is saying,
he will catch hla every gesture and every
motion of hli lips and listen to every
.word until finally be drops oft to sleep
simply because ha had watched so stead
ily, gazed so Intently that he has actually
hypnotized himself.
It the woman docs not grasp the mean
ing of the sormoij so readily, If her men
tality Is not quits so keen and quick, one
would think she would fall asleep. But
tho fact remains that she has plenty to
Interest her. A man cannot look about
the church and be Interested in John
Jones' cravat or Wllam Smith's vest, or
Sam White's cuff buttons. He doesn't
care anything about them, but a woman
will rlt quietly In church; she will hear
what the minister Is saying without glv-,

"It's a science, Isn't It?" laughed Mlsa
