GOOD-NIGHT TALK
Have you over stopped to wonder why it is that I give you these little
talks every night?
J When I was a boy I always wanted to know about things and as I grew
sup I began to find out tho answers to the questions which I asked when I was
cyountj, and as I was eager to learn, I know you are also eager to learn
everything that you can, and by spending a few moments every evening you
may learn what it has taken mo years to find out.
We may learn in many ways. We may learn by using our eyes. We
( may learn by using our ears and listening to tho beautiful music wo hear

t'bering what you have read. Remember this: every writer is trying to tell
just one thing.
Mark Twain tried to make us laugh
Charles Dickens tried nnd did do good in the world by picturing the evils

lhat strange Joy that was his reward
for leaving dray Wolf and tho wild.
Slowly he raised his head Until his black
muzzle rested on her lap, nnd ho closed
his eyei while- thnt wonderful little crea
ture that mystified him sotho baby
proddled him with her tiny feet, nnd
pulled his tawny hair. Ho loved Iheso
baby-maullngs even moro than tho touch
of Joan's hand.
"Good old Kazan," sho cried softly,
putting her face down close to him.
'We're glad you came, Knznn, for we're
going to bo nlono tonight baby nnd I.

Sho tickled his note with tho end of her
long shining braid. Thlq always delighted
tho baby, for In splto of his stoicism, Ka

nnd twjg his cms. And It pleased him,
too. Ho loved the sweet scent of Joan's
hair. .
"And you'd right for us, It you had to,
wouldn't you?" sho went on. Then sho
roso quietly. "I must close tho door,"
sho Bald. "I don't wnnt jou to go nway
again today, Kazan. You must stay
with us."
Knzaii went off to his corner, and lay
down. Just na thero had been somo
strnngo thing nt tho top of tho Sun Itock
to disturb him that day, bo now there was
a mystery thnt disturbed him in tho
cabin. Ho sniffed tho nlr trying to fathom
its secret. Whatever it was, It seemed
to tnako his mistress different, too. And
sho was digging out nil sorts of odds nnd
ends of things nbout tho cnbln, nnd do
ing them up In packages I.nto that night,
beforo sho went to bed, Joan came nnd
snuggled her hand close down beside him
for a few moments.
"We'ro going nway." sho whispered,
nnd there was n curious trcmblo that
was almost n sob In her voice. "We'ro
going home, Knznn. We'ro going nway
down whero his jwoplo live where thoy

Ho roso to his feet and moved stealth
ily about the cabin, sulrflng nt the walls,

done Into packages. A low whine roso In
his throat. Joan, half asleep, heard it,
nnd murmured:
"Ho quiet, Knznn. Go to sleep go to

hong after that, Kazan stood rigid In
tho centre of the room, listening, tremb

It sent a thrill through him. He rnn to

Then tho night grew still. Ho crouched

"There you go again with your wise
sayings. I do wish you would como
around every day and talk to me. I
learn so much by listening to you,"
said Mrs. Spider, moving closer to
Mr. Fly.
"I am not so very wise I have had
experience rl know enough not to get
too near a spider's web. I almost got
caught once."
"I think you are too wise for me,"
was the answer Mrs. Spider gave her
pompanion. "Hop along or fly along,
for you make me hungry."
"Very well," replied Mr. Fly. "Put
me down as one fly you did not catch."
"I shall never, never forget you,"
said Mrs. Spider.
Mr. Fly went away wondering what
the lady in the web had meant.

the nlr. His muscles tightened: his legs
grewr tense. Deep down In his chest
there began tho low rumblo of n growl.
He knew now what that strange thing
wns that had haunted him, and mndo
him uneasy. It wns life. Something that
lived nnd breathed had Invaded the home
which ho nnd Gray Wolf had chosen. He
bared his long fangs, nnd n snarl of de
flanco drew back his lips. Stiff-legged,
prepared to spring, his neek nnd head
reaching out, ho approached the two
rocks between which Gray Wolf had
crept the night beforo. Sho was , stilt
there. And with her was something else.
After a moment tho tenseness left
Kazan's body. His bristling crest
drooped until It lay flat. His ears shot
forward, nnd he put his heart ..nd should
ers between the two rocks, nnd whined
Boftly. And Gray Wolf whined. Slowly
Kazan backed out, nnd faced the rising
sun. Then ho lay down, so that his body
shielded tho entrance to the chamber be
tween tho rocks.
Gray Wolf was a mother.
CHArTBIt IX.
THE THAGEDT ON BUN HOCK.
A Lti that day Kazan guarded the top of
jt tho Sun Rock. Kate, nnd the fear
and brutality of masters, had heretofore
kept him from fatherhood, nnd ho was
puzzled. Something told him now thnt ho
belonged to the Bun Itock, nnd not to tho
cnbln. The call that cr.mo to him from
over tho plain wns not so strong. At
dusk Gray Wolf camo out fr. m her ri
treat, and slunk to his side, whimpering,
nnd nipped gently nt his shaggy neck. It
was tho old Instinct of his fathers that
mndo him respond by caressing Gray
Wolf's faco with his tongue. Then Gray
Wolf's Jaws opened, nnd she laughed In
short panting brcnths, ns If sho had been
hnrd run. Sho wns hoppy, nnd na they
heard n llttlo snuffling sound from be
tween the rocks, Knznn wagged his tall,
and Gray Wolf darted back to her young.
Tho bnbylsh cry nnd Its effect upon Grny
Wolf taught Kazan his first lesson In
fatherhood. Instinct again told him that
Gray Wolf could not go down 'to tho hunt
with him now that sho must stay at tho
top of tho Sun Itock. So when tho moon
roso lie went down alone, and toward dawn
returned with 1. big white rnhblt between
his Jaws. It wns tho wild In him that
made him do this, and Gray Wolf nto
ravenously. Then ho know that each
night hcrenftei ho must hu..t for Gray
Wolf and tho llttlo whimpering creatures
hidden between tho two rocks.
Tho next day, nnd stilt tho next, ho did
not go to tho cnbln, though ho heard tho
voices of both tho man nnd tho womnn
calling him. On the llfth ho went down,
uiul Joan and tho baby were so glad that
tho womnn hugged him, nnd tho baby
kicked nnd laughed and screnmed at him,
This tlmo Knznn felt nnd scented moro
of thnt mysterious chnngo In tho cabin.
Joan nnd her husband talked inccssnntly
of their plans when they were together;
nnd when the mnn wns away Joan talked
to tho baby and to him. And each tlmo
thnt he came down to tho cnbln during
the week thnt followed he grew more
and moro restless, until nt Inst tho man
noticed tho change In him.
"I bcllcvo ho knows," ho said to Joan
one evening. "I bcllevo he knows we're
preparing to leave." Then ho ndded:
"Tho river was rising ngaln today. It
will bo nnother week beforo we can start,
perhaps longer."
Thnt same night tho moon flooded tho
top of tho Sun Itock with a golden light,
and out Into the glow of It enme Gray

the night was almost a bright as day

scented was not tho scent of n rnbblt, n

then, coming faintly to him from the top
of the rock, ho heard sounds which sent
htm up with a terrible whining cry. When
ho reached the summit he saw In tho
whlto moonlight a sceno that stopped him
for a single moment. Close to tho edgo
of the sheer fall to tho rocks, fifty feet
below, Grny Wolf was engaged In n denth

LAZINESS IS DECRIED
TRDXTON. N. J., Jan. 8.-"nilly"
Sunday's tabernnclo was staged llko a
football field last night. The service wns
specially nrrnnged for students, nnd
tho 7000 scats reserved for their ac
commodation wcro tilled with a Ilag
wnvlng, cheering. Jubilant lot of young
men, who usurped the functions of tho
choir nnd had tho oponlng pnrt of tho
entertainment nil to themselves.
"Hilly" nnd "Ilodey" entered Into tho
spirit of the occasion nnd schodl after
school was given opportunity to un
loose Its yells, sing Its favorite songs
and mako all tbn noise of which it was
capable. It was an off night for the
choir, but the novelty appealed to tho
big audience, which again Jammed the
tabernnclo to capacity.
Tho climax wno reached when Eric
Mackcy, n senior of tho Trenton High
School, who went around the world
with tho Amcrlcnn Iloys Achievement
Hand, lenped to tho platform and led
his comrades In n series of cheers pre
pared for tho occasion.
This snlly wns greeted by counter cheers
from the Stnte Model nnd Normnl Schools,
who had turned out In full force, led by
Principal James SI. Green, Tho Stnto
schools had a fetching yell which
enumerated all the daya of the week and
then repeated Sunday half a dozen times.
Princeton lind not been represented In
any of tho cheering sections, but Hughle
Golden, tho diminutive, lS-year-old mascot
of the University, wns trotted out on the
platform nnd Introduced to tho crowd,
bowing nnd shaking hands with Sunday.
In nnnounclng tho collection "Dllly" snlrt
ho liked to speak to tho young bceause It
was llko talking to the future through a
long-dlstnnce telephone. If they did not
havo nny more than he did ns a boy, he
snld, they could not give much. Then to
tho ushers, ho snld: "Go ahead, get all
they've got anyway,"
Of nil tho audiences "Billy" hns had
since coming to Trenton, none wns more
Interested or more Intense, than that com
posed tonight largely of boys nnd girls
from tho schools of Trenton nnd neigh
boring communities In New Jersey and
Pennsylvania. The sermon on "The
Forces Thnt Win" wns nn espcclnl appeal
to young people, nnd "Billy" used less
of the slang characteristic, of other dis
courses. Decrying laziness, "Billy" asked how
many opportunities are lost by young men
and women too Indolent to do moro than
mako themselves one of the crowd. The
boy who goes to school ho described ns
bigger than the "young lobster who loafs
In the streets, smokes cigarettes, goes
Into the back doors of grog shops and
tries to drink tho whole bunch under the
table.
"The newspaper today Is n better col
lege than Abraham Lincoln had Just the
newspaper alone" declared Sundny, In
commenting upon the educational ad
vantages of the time. "Books were never
cheaper. They are like the leaves on tlte
trees. The telegraph runs to the four
corners of the world. Newspapers hand
you the news of the world every morning
and evening In the week for a few
cents."
"Billy" raised a laugh by saying It is n
sad day for a young fellow who gets bo
conceited that an overcoat of ex-PresI-dent
Taft would not make him a vest.
"There Is more hope for the fool than
for the fellow who thinks he knows It all.
The conceited man Is like a cheap-skate
restaurant, where everything Is In the
window and nothing on the table but hot
air."

Insisted Ion going out.
Tho policeman, who knew him well,
Implored him not to go further nt that
tlmo of night Into n district that had been
nt that tlmo the scene of a number of
crimes, nnd being unable to convince tho
nged clergyman of the danger, he nt last
took It upon himself to compel him to turn
back nnd go .home. Tho incident Is tjp
Icnl of tho devotion which mnny people
feel for Mr. Bojer In tho southern part of
the city.
Mr. and Mrs. Boyer havo two sons, the
Rev. Francis B. Boyer, rector of the
Church of the Saviour, Boston, and
Herbert Morton Boyer, nn nttorney, nnd
a daughter, Mrs. Chnrlotto H. Luther.
THIEF UNDER BED,
SHE DIDN'T FAINT
Continued from rase One
berry at long range. They "spilled" each
other repeatedly, Luffberry strugglng to
get to his bedroom, where thero was a
revolver. But the man, who hnd been un
der the bed, was everywhere now, lighting
llko mad.
GIRL GETS TOLICEMAN.
Here It was that Miss Llzer ngaln
proved herself a heroine. Sin ran from
the room, with Its crashing chairs, dull
thuds nnd grunts. Perhaps sho wns n bit
frightened by nil the noise, but that
wasn't why she left so quickly Sho went
to tho homo of James Dougherty, who
lives next door, nt 2119 Chadwlck street.
She knew that Dougherty was a traltlc
policeman, stationed ut 15th nnd Market
streets.
The Invader of the Luffberry home wilted
when he saw moro than six feet of Dough
erty, clad In bathrobe and slippers, cata
pult Itself Into tho room.
"I surrender," lie said. And then his
eyes nearly started from, his sockets. Ho
saw Miss Llzer, breathless and excited,
standing behind Dougherty. No wonder
he said "Great Scott!" as ho wiped the
blood from his rnther good-looking face.
GIVES ANOTHER NAME.
They took him to the Woman's Homeo
pathic Hospital, where his cuts and
KrtilRfft u-ir trenteil nnd whero I.nff-
berry's cut hand was dressed. Then
Dougherty took him to the 26th and YorkJ
streets station, where ho snld ho was '
James Williams, -j years old, of Hunting
don street above 17th Btreet. Magistrate
Watson held him in $X ball for further
hearing January 16.
Miss Llzer, Just as brave beforo a Magis
trate as she had been when nlone In the
room with an Intruder, identified the pris
oner as having been introduced to her as
Gardner de Long, from her "home town,"
Glrardsvllle, Pa, She met him through
friends and they spent Christmas Eve to
gether, she Bald.
SEEMED "GENTLEMANLY."
"Ho seemed to be vety gentlemanly,
Bhe added, maybe a bit wistfully.
The prisoner said he was "hard up anil
out of work," according to the police, who
said that silverware and money were
found on him.
"I didn't know 1 was in a friend's
house," he said.
Perhaps it will be many moons before
Miss Llzer spends another day so excit
ing as this. The thrill of It almost makes
her lingers go astray as she makes the
typewriter hum In the oltlco of A. II.
Klrschbaum & Co , clothing manufactur
ers, at Broad and Carpenter streets, where
she is employed.
WITH SMITH AS MAYOR
To the Editor of Evening Ledger?
Sir Ever Blnce Mayor Smith announced
himself as a candidate for the ofllce he
now tills, the papers have been trlng to
pick out some flaw or weak point In his
personal makeup; and while his utter
ances from his pre-election speeches
down to his Inaugural address have coin
celled the editorial writers to give him
credit for the many good things he has
promised the people durinr his adminis
tration, yet I notice that every one of
these writings have a questionable mark
running through them.
They all seem to think that he will fall
down on the many fine things promised
and they will fall to materialize, as was
the case with his predecessor.
We are all very much alike, strong or
weak according to the assistance given
us. How many of us would make good
If all our friends would question our
every move, say all our good Ideas and
acts were Influenced by others, that all
the bad or unsuccessiul were our own?
We don't expect Mayor Smith to make
no mistakes, because he Is human; and
we want him to remain that way because
we are built on the same lines ourselves.
But, in order that those mistakes will
be as few as possible, let us. alt give him
our unqualified support, and we will Had
that the greatest disappointed people will
be those who predicted bis failure.
