Woeful Lament.

Her grown-up sister and cousin were dressing for a masquerade and Ethel was watching them and begging to “go too.” Finally her sister said firmly: “Now, Ethel, don’t be absurd. You can’t go, so do stop crying?” Whereupon Ethel threw herself on the bed weeping and sobbing out, “0, 0, why was I born too late.”

GAVE HIS LIFE FOR PEACE

One Man Died for Many and Ended Feud Between the Stickeen and Sitkas of Alaska. ——— . , Jr 1 < While the difficulties in the way of re-establishing peace between the contending nations of Europe are in mind, it might be helpful to consider the manner in which two Alaskan tribes, the Stickeen and Sitkas, once settled such a matter. The late John Muir narrates the facts, says the Christian Herald. The bloody feud had lasted all summer, for the parties were evenly matched, and they were all likely to starve in the winter because the women dared not go out to fi-lh or pick berries. But one day a Stickeen chief appeared between the camps and called for a parley. He said: “My people are hungry. They dare not go to the salmon streams or berry fields for winter supplies, and if this war goes on much longer, most of my people will die of hunger. We have fought long enough; let us have peace. You brave Sitka warriors go home, and we will go home, and we will all set out to dry salmon and berries before it is too late.

The Sitka chief replied: “You may well say let us stop fighting when you have had the best of it. You have killed ten more of my tribe than we have killed of yours. Give us the Stickeen men to balance our blood account; then, and not till then, will we make peace and go hoffie.” “Very well,” replied the Stickeen chief, “you know my rank. You know that I am worth ten common men and more. Take me and make peace.” The offer was accepted. The chief gave himself up and was shot down in his tracks, in sight of both tribes. One man diecTfor many, and pefece was restored.

Los Angeles’ Harbor.

The federal government has spent about $5,000,000 in converting the old embarcadero at San Pedro into the modern Los Angeles harbor. To this the city of Los Angeles has added $5,500,000, and private capital has expended there about $.3,000,000, making a. total of $13,5Q0.t)00. The result is that thecity has 12,000 feet of wharf? 4,600 feet of transit sheds 100 feet wide, and a six-story warehouse, conthan seven miles of street paving has been laid, five miles of water mains, and more than ten miles of railroad belt lines and yard tracks. During the last fiscal year ended June 30. 1916, 2,787 ships called at the harbor, bearing a net tonnage of 3,223,023.

A Mozart Story.

In the Sistine chapel In Rome the choir was chanting the famous “Miserere,” by Allegri, the copying of which was forbidden by the church under pain of excommunication. In a corner of the chapel a boy of fourteen listened with trained ear, greedily devouring a jealously guarded piece repeated twice. In his room the tone pictures transmitted to Mozart’s brain were recalled accurately and transcribed upon paper. The next day he sang the “Miserere” at a concert, accompanying himself on a harpsichord. ’All Rome, including the pope, was astounded. His holiness sent for him and instead of excommunicating him, heaped honors on Mozart, so extraordinary was the feat regarded.

New Spraying Method.

A newly patented device makes it possible to water a lawn, a flower bed or a mass of shrqbbery and spray it with insecticide at the same time. The stream of water passes through an attachment at the mouth of the hose, where it picks up a minute quantity of the proper chemical. Not only does this system accomplish two operations —watering and spraying—at one time, but It is also claimed that it is superior to the old method of spraying, because it avoids undue concentration of the chemical in question, which was not always the case when the spray was applied alone.

NO PUNISHMENT

Kate—When you were having that row with Tessie I thought you were going to pull her hair. «« Kittie—What’s the use? It wouldn’t hurt to pull her hair, and I’d only have to hand it back to her.

The Whaler

All day the warship had watched steam trawlers going to and fro in this lonely region of the ocean. All day the mother ship had cruised along the horizon, her lookouts manned and keeping a close watch upon the sea. The steam trawlers moved in response to the mother ship’s signals,! easUy read. They had made great havoc with the whales, towing their carcasses to the larger vessel. The odor tilled the air and carried conviction to the warship’s crew. The warship exchanged only customary signals with the whaler. It would have been pleasant to go away from her odorous neighborhood. But this was Impossible. It was about here that the German raider might be expected on her way home from southern waters.

Night fell, a velocity darkness closing over the smooth surface of the ocean. —There were at first a few twinkling stars, in particular the Southern Cross. Then, on a little gust of wind, a cloud rode over these bright specks of the cradling sky. It grew pitch dark, with rumbles of thunder. The red and green sidelights of the whaler flickered across the hidden waters. Pretty soon she would be lighting great fires to try out oil. Some time went by and a ghastly spot of flame wickered and danced in the whaling ship’s rigging. A corposant, spirit of some poor dead sailor, skipping about aloft and yelling, as he loosed the canvas, a hoarse and cheery message to deck below: “Sheet homel” And now you could not see your hand before your face. The warship, unlit and moving slowly, loomed dimly in the darkness, like a great shape of fate in ambush waiting to pounce on her prey. Then came the betrayal. Phosphorescence marked the ripples along the whalers’s sides; -phosphorescence, a gleaming streak of gold, charted the path of the warship; the same bright luminous magic played around certain oval shapes emerging suddenly from underseas. Whales? Never were whales like these, appearing suddenly out of the ocean depths and thronging about their hunter. It was necessary to strike swiftly or perish. Once the _meth6F ship established contact with her nfonstrous brood it would be too late. The brilliant phosphorescence limned the targets clearly. The warship brought her guns to bear instantly, there was a noise heavier than thunder and more enduring, red flames lit the night.

All three submarines were apparently sunk by the destroyer’s gunfire. The mother ship, which had not dared to flee by day, was riddled and left to sink or rot in the midst of the carcasses of the whales. From papers on board her her rendezvous with the raider was ascertained, and the warship, under full speed, drove suddenly ahead through the night, the velvety night with gleams of phosphorescence glinting the surface of the sea.

French Soldiers’ Beards.

No anxiety about shaving is felt by the French conscript when he joins the army, for he is encouraged by the authorities to grow a beard, and, indeed, it is from this fact that he has obtained his nickname of “poilu,” the French equivalent for Tommy Atkins, which literally means shaggy or hairy, says the London Chronicle. The beard was favored in the English army during the Crimean war for the protection it gave from the intense cold of the trenches before Sebastopol, and the apparition of sp many bearded men in England after* the war made beards for a long time fashionable In this country.

Share Your Thoughts.

Share your beautiful thoughts just as generously as you share the flowers in all of her neighbors to share her pansies or later her sweet peas, keeps her best thoughts to herself so jealously that not even the members of her own household know anything about them. And that is one kind of selfishness. A beautiful thought should be passed on to others, for, unlike the flowers In your garden, you can give it away and yet keep it for yourself.

Batter for Fritters.

Yolks of two eggs, one-half cupful of cold water; stir in one cupful of flour. If a little too thick add a trifle more water, one-half teaspoonful salt, one tablespoonful olive oil. Beat briskly, then add the stiffly beaten whites of two eggs. Set aside for a few hours. The olive oil gives a beautiful brown tint to the fritter which nothing else will give. Use deep, clear lard to fry them in.
