THE YELLOW
ROSEBUSH
SI I ll
The aflemooa sua was caressing
the flowers In the old garden for Ue
last time. The gate opened and a
eweet lady la white came down the
box-bordered, path, peering tram left
to right
"Laddie. Laddie." she called.
"Where's mother little man?"
Crouching behind a hollyhock a lit
tle figure was trying to avoid observa
tion, but A gleeful laugh burst from
his Hps at his mother's ignorance of
his hiding place, and In another mo
ment his dusty blue Jumper was n out
line In the folds of a white gown.
"Naughty Laddie to make poor
mother hunt."
Laddie's laugh rang out again. He
wared a bright flag In the air.
"Tell me a story, muwer, nice,
long story."
The mother sat down on a settee
and cuddled the little man In her lap.
"Does Laddie want to bear about a
big, brare manT'
"Yes, muTTer."
"Once upon a time." Laddie knew
that "once upon a time" stories were
the rery nicest and he smiled content
edly "there was a little man." Lad
die looked apprehensive. It was when
bis 'conduct had been ' questionable
that stortee- were about "little men."
But mother shook her head. ,
'"Not about this little man, but about
one who was a little man when moth
er was a little glrL This little man
played la a garden and he lore the
flowers. He had a rosebush that hi
mother and he bad planted on his
fifth birthday. Every morning he
need to water It and he grew to lore.
it very much. The first rose that
blossomed was a beautiful yellow
rose. How proud he was of It! The
third day after It blossomed, when he
started to water It, he saw a little
girl looking through the fence. She
did not bare nice clothes like he had;
her feet were bare and she had been
crying. The little man looked at his
rose and then at her. '
" 'Would you like to hare my roser
he asked.
"Her little face brightened and she
said. 'Oh, yes.'
"Hla little fingers trembled as he
broke his sweet rose from the bush
and gave It to the little girl through
the fence. She broke Into a merry
laugh and said 'thank you,' then ran
away.
"This little man grew to be a big
man very soon and he took such good
care of his rosebush that It grew large
and had rery many roses on It
"One night h came Into the gar
den with the little girl who had
grown to be a young lady and they
walked down to the rosebush. There
was a big yellow rose on the bush,
very much like the one that had first
bloomed. He bent forward and pick
ed it and put it In her hair. Then,
Laddie, tor the first time, he gave
her what mother gives you every
night when she tucks you in bed, be
cause be loved her. A little while
after that the lady came to the gar
den often, for she came to live In the
big white house near It
a, Then-there came a day, Laddie, a
very sad day, when the lady came Into
the garden with the big man. He wa3
dressed like a soldier. She picked the
prettiest rose on the bush, kissed it
and gave It to him. He did not stay
long, but said 'Good by,' and the gate
closed behind him. .
"A long time pasted and one day
the lady came into the carden and
gathered all the roses and made a
wreath, and later In the day she went
to a place where there were a lot of
little mound covered with grass. She
stopped before one, over which a flag
was waving, Just like this flag. Laddie,
and she placed the wreath on It She
was very sad. Yon see this big man
wa brave. He went off to a great
war, and was shot while putting up a
which some bad men had pulled
ova,- ,
Motbe took Laddie by the hand
and. walked down, to the end of the
garden. There wa a rosebush cov
ered with yellow blossom.
"This Is the rosebush. Laddie."
"Who was the blgv. brave ataaT
asked Ladle
. "Toor tataerr daruwc.r:
"And waa the little girl and lady
you, mnrverr'
Mother nodded her head and Laddie
saw two great tears almost ready to
fall from her beautiful brown eyes.
He bent forward orer the bush and
picked a yellow blossom.
"Here, muwer," said he, "take this
rose and don't cry. Laddie'a going
to bo your big, brare man." MAR

General St. Clair Mulholland. vet.

tells an incident showing the utter
worthlessness of Confederate paper
mqpey at the close of the war.
"Shortly after Lee's surrender,"
says the General, "1 was a short dis
tance from Richmond. The Confeder

come men of peace again, and were
thinking about their farms.
"One had a lame, broken-down horse
which he viewed with pride. 'Wish I
had him, Jim,' said the other. 'What'll
you take for him? I'll give you t20,0OO
for him."
"'No,' said Jim.
" 'Give you I50.0O9
"'No,' aald Jim.
" 'Give you $100,000.' his friend said.
"'Not much,' replied Jim. 'I Just

TELKriIQ.N'ES ON CARS.
Useful in Train Itespatching Con
nections Quickly Made.
Ther are three methods followed
In the application of the telephone
to electric railway despatching: (l)
Fixed telephone sub-stations in
booths placed at suitable points along
the line. (2) Jack boxes at poles to
which portable telephones carried In
the cars may be hung and connected
tor temporary., use. (S) Portable
telephone sets hung upon the front
of the car, the vestibule platform of
which serves as a booth, and attach
ment made by flexlole wires to Jacks
at numerous poles along th line.
On some railway lli.es, says Tech
nical Literature, the method or
necting a telephone on the car with
the line Is not by means of 1.,-lr
at the side of one of the poles, but
by a long elender rod carrylngthe
wire, which may be booked upon
the main line at any place.
The telephones used on electric
railroad system t&st give trans
mission which Is clear and loud, and
must be of tvnes not llahla in h.

Ap llcatlon of th telephone to
train despatching on electric rail
way has results i in a marked eco
nomy of both plant and operation. In
that the ability of the superintend
ent to be Informed aa to th poaltloa
of th various carr and to communi

greater service efflcUncy to th road.
The telephone Is of great service In

facility which It afford for informa
