Their steps to evenness and make

They are such little handa;
Be kind. Things are so new, and life but
stands
atep beyond the doorway. All around
New day has f und
Such tempting things to shine upon, and
The hands are

They are such new, young Urea;
Barely their newness shrives .
Them itSil of many sins. They aee so

That being immortal they would touch.
That if they reach
We most not chide, but teach.
They are such fond, clear eyea
That widen to surprise
At every turn; they are so often held
To suns or showers showers noon la

By looking in our face;
Love asks, for such, much grace.
They are sceh fair, frail gifta; . .
Uncertain as the rifts
Of light that Ue along the sky
They may not be here by-and-by
Give them not lore, but more above
And harder patience with the lore.

LIFE FOE LIFE.
AN afternoon of mid -September,
bright aa a dream, warm as a
reality, glowed over the north
Irish coast. Young Constantine was
watching a game between three wild
and beautiful beings. The three were
14-year-old Ruby Merrltt, her new pony,
and the Atlantic Mlas Merrltt's Lon
don groom, on a powerful bay mare,
from the edge of the wet aand surveyed
the horizon line with a bored and rigid
eye.
The scene changed. Ruby and the
pony made a madcap dash far forward,
mA amMoiilT the nonv threw the girl.
Stunned and snatched along In the lr
resistible retreat of the Atlantic roller, I
her senseless body was borne out to i
sea.
Mad with terror, the groom, no swim
mer, lashed at the mare, and. crying
(or help, tore like the wind up the bank
and round tbe rabbit warren In the di
rection of Port Balry. Constantine ran
swam. i
Aided by two fishermen, whom the
erlea of the groom bad brought to the
spot in time to see Constantine stagger
sp the sands with his burden, the
young man conveyed the girl to Sea
view house.
He lingered long enough to learn that
the doctor, who was staying In the
house, had said Mis Ruby would do;
then he lounged bom.
Early In the afternoon of the follow
ing day the Sea view boos party, la
dle and men, were grouped on the
mall leveled bit of green In front of
the bouse, waiting for the carriages to
come round. A man's figure was seen
approaching along the brow of the
hllL I
"My dear," said Mrs. Merrltt to her
husband, 'if s the young fisherman who
rescued Ruby. He baa put on hla Sun
day clothes," she added.
Mr. Merrltt, aa tha young man came
an, felt In his waistcoat pocket. I
Constantine lifted his bat to the la- j
dies.
"I should be very glad," he said, ad
dressing Mr. Merrltt, "to know how
Miss Merrltt Is." j
"Certainly, certainly," said Mr. Mer-i
rKt, with an affable air. "Miss Merrltt)
la progressing most favorably. The)
doctor's orders are that Miss Merrltt
la to keep quiet and see no one but her
one, but that la a precautionary meas
ure. I'm sure hum sure your con
ductmoat creditable to you. I'm sure
I hum hadn't time to to speak to
yon yesterday, and myself and Mrs. .
Merrltt would like " '
He handed Constantine a SB gold
piece. i
The young man looked at It curiously.
Then his eye darted over the pursy
figure and pasty face of Mr. Merrltt.
"I wonder now," said Constantine,
"what your forefathers were doing
while mine were feasting kings and j
marrying kings' daughters In this 1st- .
and?" j
Mr. Merrltt started back and almost !
shotted.
Constantino glanced toward two
fisher lads who were standing a good
way off with a big crab In a basket.
The gold coin was spun in the air and
waa caught by Andy Neil. !
"There, boys!" said Constantine.
Tou'U drink the health of the English
gentleman." !
He smiled again, saluted the ladles,
turned, and, with a slow, sauntering :
step, walked away. i
"Who la heT' exclaimed Mr. Merrltt. !
A little man, the parson of the near- j
est church, stepped forward. j
"That Is Malcolm Constantine," be !
aid. "It's quite true he la the last of
a very old family. But they were to
tally ruined in his great-grandfather's
time, and the young man haan't a
penny."
"Impudent beggar P said Mr. Merrltt,
fuming. j
"Supposing he bad been a fisherman, 1
my dear." said Mrs. Merrltt meekly; !
"I thought you would have made It :
936."
No one perceived at a window above .
their heads a handsome iitue listening
face with brown hair falling round It. '
Ruby had witnessed the whole scene j
heard every word.
Four days later came Sunday. Con
stantine was sitting alone by his peat
fire, which the creeping chill In the air
made necessary, when there came a
knock. The old woman who looked
after the house for him was out. Con- .
tantlne went to the door, and there
jtood Ruhr Merrltt.
"I didn't believe I'd see you," she
Id. Impetuously, "and I'm going back
school to-morrow. But they've all
Wren over to church at Coleralne, and
KI am. You saved my Ufa. I want
sank yon."
sasjusia nl I ii frowned. "I wish yea
wouldn't mention that. Miss Ruby.
Xou're none the worse for It; that's all;
that signifies," he said.
"That clergyman, Mr. Saunders, waa
talking of you yesterday. He said:
The young man has first-rate abilities,
but he'd rather starve and mope his
life away In this corner, where the com
mon people hold him in honor as a
Constantine, than try and make his
way among a crowd. It's a thousand
pities.' I said: 'Why don't yon tell
him soT He answered: 'Oh, my dear
Miss Ruby' it's no affair of mine.' And
( thought and thought all night In
the morning I- was decided. - It Is an
affair of mine. JVhy? Because I owe
.you. my life, and because ! like yon so
much so ranch yon dost know! And
whan I hear .things when they say
things It huHis me.- There, now you're

"No," said OonstanrJnsi "No, Miss
Buby. "Ita opJj that when a man has

"Oh. I care a lot. Malcolm Constan

yon try business? No matter bow low
you begin, the top's always there."
"Buying and selling?"
"Why not. If If s honest? Ill teU yon
I love noble blood, though I haven't
half a drop," said outspoken Ruby
"But, after all, did your, ancestors do
anything better than help make tbt
world? That's what business Is. And
now I must go, or else I shall get In a
simply awful scrap. Will yon think
It over?"
"Yes, I win." said Constantine. "And,
however It Is, God bless you, Mlsi
Ruby
Twelve years passed. Malcolm Con
stantine, junior partner In the great
Pittsburg Iron works, came over t
take a hard-earned holiday, bay land
In Antrim, and see London.
A dowager countess, who had crossed
In the same boat with him, undertook
to make his stay In town agreeable to
the rich bachelor of 30. She had seven
portionless daughters, only one of
whom was married.
On a fine May afternoon Constantine
found himself seated between two of
these young ladles and their mother at
a little tea table In a Bond street pastry
cook's. They bad been seeing plcturea
Constantine felt restless. Something
In the coloring of an obscure portrait hi
bad seen had brought strongly to hi
mind the handsome, spirited, red-cheeked,
warm-hearted school girl, Ruby
Merrltt.
He half feared to see Ruby the
woman; she might spoil his treasured
Image of Ruby the girl.
The voice of the countess, speaking
sharply, startled him out of hia reverie.
"Really," she was saying, "one
doesn't expect such awkwardness In a
place like this."
Constantine looked round. One of
the waitresses passing with a full tea
pot bad been run against by another.
Some drops were spurted on the silk
skirt of the countess.
The young woman bad stood still to
make her apology. Constantine sprang
np. "Ruby, Ruby!" he exclaimed, in a
voice which made every creature pres
ent turn round and stare.
It was a little awkward for all par
ties at the moment, and the ever-practical
Ruby Informed him . afterward
that he really should have waited to
speak to her till she was off duty.
"My story's quite simple," she said,
as he walked by her side. "A few years
ago poor uncle took to speculating
largely. He lost everything. My little
fortune went. too. I did not think I
was fit to be a governess. And I did
not feel inclined to live on friends. I
was very lucky to get my present situa
tionit's an excellent one. Don't look
tragic, please. Yon know I'm not noble.
There's my 'bus. Aunty and I have
a nice little lodging out toward Ham
mersmith. Come and see us? Yes, of
course you can."
September again. Malcolm and Ruby
Constantine stood together on the turfy
headland In front of the house of Sea
view, where they were spending their
honeymoon.
Ruby pointed to a spot upon tht
shore.
"There's where you saved my life." .
Constantine pointed further.
"See that little bouse? There's where
you created mine." London Evening

"In Parti bus Infldeliam."
The phrase "in partlbus infldellum"
Is no longer applied by tne Cathode
Church to Bishops of extinct sees, De
cause in most cases the people of such
sees, though not Roman Catholics, pro
fess some other form of Christianity,
and the Pope wants to avoid hurting
their feelings. Such prelates will here
after be called "eplscopi tltulares,"
"titular Bishops."
Grown People's Question.
"What's your name?" asked one little
6-year-old miss of another. "My good
ness!" exclaimed the other, "you're aa
bad as grown-up folks. They always
asks my name and a lot of other silly
questions, until I'm actually ashamed
of them."
"I suffered Itae tortares of the damned
with protruding piles brought on by constipa
tion with which I was afflicted for twenty
years. I ran across your CASCARETS In the
town of Newell, la., and never found anything
to equal them. To-day I am entirely tree from
piles and feel like a new man."

stomach sour and bowels
were not regular, and

I wrote you and began to

Viva chattered this speech out as she
walked along the street beside Miss

"She has something far better than
brilliancy." said Miss Merton.
"Whatr said Viva, her cheeks flush
ing uncomfortably, for she felt that
she had made a mistake, and she was
very anxious to stand well in Miss Mar
ton's opinion.
"She has a courteous manner. That
is a grace that is very great, but far too
rare. I know Ruth quite well, and her
kindness and courtesy are unfailing in

her except that she stumbles so dread
fully in her lessons."
I "No donbt she is very sorry about it,
and I am sure she works faithfully. It
; Is a fine gift to be quick and bright in
1 understanding things. But you know,
my dear, that it Is far more Important
to be kind-hearted and gentle. When
! y ou girls go out in the world no one
! rill ever ask or know whether you got
good grades In algebra and Latin. If
1 you have done your best, it is wrought
into you whether your best is very
good or only mediocre. But be sure of
this, every one who meets you will
know without putting you through an
examination whether you are a gentle-
: woman or not. It Isn't practical to
quote Greek or discuss psychology or
read Shakespeare with every one you
: meet, but you can always speak kindly
; and listen courteously, and quietly
j look out for the opportunity to do the
little deeds of kindness that make our
lives so much more worth living."

ettltn for HtsHs and People.
There never was a boy who, at some
period of hia career, did not aspire to
walk on stilts. This ambition general
ly dies a natural death after sufficient
gratification, but even this rule haa its
exceptions. It is quite common in many
of our Southern States to aee houaea
whose foundations are nothing but
stilts. These later raise the buildings
far enough 'from the ground to allow
pigs, cats, dogs and other small or
medlnm-slxed animals to take refuge
there.
The sataaaa of a certain district In

such foundations, aa a necessity. It 1a

Ta 8 peak Well Breathe Well.
It is as Important to speak distinctly
and forcefully as It Is to walk erect or
to keep one's garments in good order.
Many persona who would resent being
accused of slovenliness or careless de
portment pay no attention to their
voices. Yet this form of negligence is
as disagreeable as the others in many
respects. Proper speaking depends
upon deep breathing. Breathe deeply
and have plenty of air in your lungs
when you speak. Enunciate distinctly
and do not hurry in your speaking, and
unsr fium the breath out while talk
ing. By an unconscious process the
lungs will supply enough air to give the
desired kind and volume of sound.
When you breathe and make a sound
at tbe same time a harsh tone will be
the result, giving you a gruff voice. A
little practice and experimental talking
after taking a deep breath will con
vince yon that musical, pleasing voice
tones may be easily produced, and they
are worth while.

In the glare of many a furnace and
through the deafening roar of hammers

ened by the voice of my mentor, who
stated that there were 1.100 machines
of all kinds in the place, and 5,000 men
working in conjunction with them,
their field of operation extending over
4,600 acres of floor space. Tbe day's
work of the entire week, ten passenger
cars, three Pullmans, average, when It
grew more Imposing. In addition to
the sixty -two miles of track in the walls
of the company, the train of fifty new
cars leaving every evening, and the fact
that 100,000,000 feet of lumber (annu
ally used) brought In car loads, which
would make a lumber train fifty miles
long, helped to superinduce the proper
amount of awe. "The Town of Pull

A Man with Two Hearts.
A colored person called William
King, of New Bedford, Mass, has en
Joyed the uninterrupted possession of
two hearts for a century, as he is one
hundred years old, and is still so hale
and literally hearty as to be able to
bend bars of Iron across his arm. Ac
cording to the New York Herald, which
records this remarkable freak of na
ture. Dr. Monroe B. Long, of the Muh
lenberg Hospital staff, a physician of
high repute, after visiting King, said:
"King has one heart on the right and
one on tbe left side of the chest, whose
separate hearts in unison could plain
ly be determined. By a certain mus
cular contraction King let one heart
drop to the left iliac region, where I
clearly heard the beating; then, let tbe
other heart drop to the right Iliac re
gion, where Its beating was also plain
ly heard, both beating in the lower part
of the abdomen in unison. Next, King
threw over the interior of the abdd
men m waU of bene from the neck

which la movable' at hla win and

WITH a better understanding of the transient nature of the many physicaj Ills which vanish before proper
efforts gentle efforts pleasant efforts rightly directed. There Is comfort In the knowledge that so many
forms of Illness are not due to any actual disease, but simply to a constipated condition of the system, which
the pleasant family laxative. Syrup of Figs, promptly removes. That Is why It is the only remedy with millions
f families, and is everywhere esteemed so highly by all who value good health. Its beneficial effects are due bi
the fact that it la the only remedy which promise Internal oleanllness without debilitating the organs on whlck
It acta. It is. therefore, all-Important, In order to get its beneficial effects, to note when you purchase that yon
have the gennine article, which Is manufactured by the California Fl Syrup Co. only.
THE HIGHEST OBJECT
Of the art of advertising Is to oorrectly Inform the public of the merits of any article, and truthful statements
always prove most effective in time. The valuable reputation acquired by
the California FUr Syrup Co. by reason of the excellence of the pleasant
laxative remedy. Syrup of Figs, which it manufactures, confirms the state
ment, which the company freely makes, that the best of remedies only
should be used when needed by the human system. The more one takes
of salts and pills the more constipated the system becomes, while on the
other hand one enjoys both the method and the results when Syrup of
FiRs is taken; it is pleasant and refreshing to the taste, and acts gently
yet promptly on the kidneys, liver and bowels, cleanses the system effec
tually, dispels colds, headaches and fevers and overcomes habitual consti
pation permanently; also biliousness and the many Ills resulting therefrom.
The great trouble with all other purgatives and aperients Is not that they
fall to act when a single dose Is taken, but that they act too violently and
invariably tend to produce a habit of body requiring constantly augmented
doses. Children enjoy the pleasant taste and gentle action of Syrup of
Figs, the ladlea find it delightful and beneficial whenever a laxative remedy
is needed, and business men pronounce it invaluable, as It may be taken
without interfering with business and does not gripe nor rauseate.
THE EXCELLENCE OF SYRUP OF FIGS
Is due not only to the originality and simplicity of the combination, but also
to the care and skill with which it is manufactured by scientific processes
known to the California Fig Syrup Co. only, and therefore we wish to Im
press on all the importance of purchasing the true an1 original remedy.
