On Tuesday, two men from thecity reached Ilammonton in anauto-car-which they were hired totake to Atlantic City from thedealers, a company at Twenty-thirdand Market Streets. They hadevidently made too many stopsen route, for they were certainlyvery drunk; and, when a localBoniface refused to sell them moredrink they became ugly, and .ChiefAdams was sent for. He foundthem in the car, both having holdof the wheel and quarreling as towhich _Hhoukl take charge. Seeingthat neither was in condition' torun a machine, the chief tookcharge of both, and locked themup, receiving a clip ou the side ofhis head and threatening them withhis black-jack. That evening Jus-tice Strouse assessed KennedyOwens five dollars, and I). Morn-ing ten dollars,—the fines beingpaid by Owens' father-in-law, whocame from the city for the purpose.The auto people sent a man to carefor their car.

THE PEACEABLE L I F E ' OF THEC H I L D OF GOD.

"If it be possible, as much as l)ethin you, llVe peacebly with all men."

The chief characteristic of theChristian is his possession of peace.In a restless, quarrelsome, conten-tious, unhappy, unsatisfied world, thetrue followers of Jesus Christ live

.and move as a peculiar people" be-cause they have found peace. "There-fore, being, justified by faith, we havepeace with God, through our LordJesus Christ"—that, to the mind ofthe great apostle; was1 tile, surnmutnbonum, its possession the great char-acteristic trait of—the child of God.And this peace, which is the "price-less possession of a .truly regener-ated soul, Is to manifest Itself in theChristian's life as a peace also withmen: "Blessed are the peace-makers,for they shalllie^"called"the childrenof God." We who have found peacewith God, through the blood of rec-onciliation, are .to be peace-Jnakersand peace-brlngers71etting this bright-particular light of our spiritual con-dition so shine before men that theymay see our good work* and glorifyour Father which is iji heaven: "Ifit be possible, as mrich as lieth inyou, Uye peaceably with all men."

1. The first thought suggested bythis apostolic admonition is that,though this peaceableness is much tobe desired, and earnestly to be strivenfor. • . -.

It Has Its Limitations.It is . manifestly impossible to I've

peaceably with all men. It is not al-ways true that it takes two to makea quarrel. There are men so conten-tious that they would quarrel withangels. Nor Is peace under all condi-tions the thing that is best and most

-desirable.—We-are-not_to__seek__or tosubmit to peace at any price. The"child of God can make no truce withSatan, no compromise with sin. Inthis respect even Christ, the Princeof Peace, came "not to bring peace,

' ':^ 'but-tKa'swofa',""'and He frankly toldHis disciples that, though thin-mis-sion would be the announcement ofglad tidings of peace, they would he

. spoken against, opposed, persecuted,even put to death. In other words,that they would flnd It utterly impos-sible to live peaceably with all men,nay, that they ought to be seriouslyalarmed If they found that all men

' spoke well of them. ^Therefore St. Paul knew very well

why he put (n this qualifying clause.It was not \a'lorie In direct line withhis Master's own teaching, but itwas also what he himself had expe-rienced. Of alljthe apostles be, morethan any, knew that, try as one might,If was utterly Impossible to live peace-ably .with all men. Though he "wasChrist's ambassador, carrying andproclaiming everywhere tho messageof .peace, yet ho was continually the:auae of violent strife. It frequentlyhappened that other ministers of theGospel could remain and carry on thework of evangelization In placeswhere men would not permit Paulhi in nelf to stay. But ho could not andwould not blame hfmuolf for this op-position arid strife, canned na It wanby the very loftiness and poaltlvoncBBof 'h lB character In tho mldBt of a per-vorBo and evil generation. As far asIt wan posBlble In the execution of blagreat (illusion, without violating blaconscience, ho would and did livepeaceably wi th all men; but these,were hln llmllatlomi, bo clearly rec-ognized thom and would not endeavorto got rid of thom by any dlHlumeutcompromise.

When two s«ch char-acters meet, and they are alwaysmeeting, there must. be. a clash; it isGreek meeting Greek, and inevitably"there comes the tug of war."_- Now to most men nothing is per-haps BO difficult as the surrender oftheir self-esteem, and it is most diffi-cult where there are'the greatest in-tellectual gifts. It is so much easierto mind high things than tp conde-scend to men of low degree.—It dtvmands that love which suffereth longand is kind; it is learnt only at thefeet of Christ who was meek andlowly- in heart, and is the gift of theHoly Spirit to those who4 surrendertheir hearts tip.His gracious presenceami -influence. '

Again—we must learn to sacrifice all jdesire for retribution. The statement Ithat no real Christian can po4$ib!y 'harbor thoughts of personal revengemay"~be a truism, but it needs con- 'Btant and emphatic declaration never- .theless. The desire to recompenseevil for evil ,IB~JT—primeval, passion, ;one might almost call it the greatestand most deeply rooted instinct ofthe natural man. To the pagan mindthe desire for revenge was anything ,but a vice, rather, it was held up as ,

-a—positive virtue, and-theman-whocould and woitld forget and forgivean injury was despised. When Chris- itianlty demanded the yielding up of 'this desire it gave paganism one ofthe hardest lessons It had to learn.Now the mere' fact that we acceptthe doctrines- of Christianity is noguarantee that this deep-rooted pas-sion of our old nature has been com- -pletely conquered and abolished, nay,we shall find that it exists with par-ticular strength in the man .who hasa great, warm, affectionate heart. Menwho are capable of deep and strongaffection are also, by their very na- ;ture, capable of deep and strong hate. •Yet Christ does make it possible forevery true disciple of His to achievethis great virtue, to purge his heartof every revengeful thought, to learnto forgive -even- as God-for.. Christ's^sake has forgiven him. Certainly none jof us will ever know much of the 'peaceable life of the child of God tillwe have learnt this greatest lesson: :"Recompense to no man evil for evil, iAvenge not yourselves.'1 j

3. And now, in conclusion, let us Ithink for a moment of I

Its Blessed Fruits. ;What the fruits of such a .peace-

able life are Paul tells us in the clos-ing verses of our Epistle: "If thineenemy hunger, feed him; If he thirst, 'give him drink; for In BO doing thouflhalt heap coals of fire upon his head.Be not overcome of evil, but over-come evil with good." To comply lit-erally with this demand may, and Igreatly fear does, seem to most menan utter Impossibility, and yet it hasactually been accomplished by God'schildren In every age. If you and 1must confess that Its fulfillment wouldbe an Impossibility for UB we mayseriously question whether wo areGod's children at all. It may bo asevere test, but It IB Christ's tent, andHo never asko Impossibilities of 'Illsdisciples. If you are.n branch of Himthe true Vino, that fruit too will growon you. And what greater power forthe end of enmity, for tho oonvorlonof a bitter foe Into a warm and de-Voted friend can you Imagine, wlmtmightier testimony for tho roal HvliiKpower of tbo religion of .TOBUH Chr lHt? ,Certain It IB that If at this momentI arn not living peaceably' with anyone, and havo not Bought tho oppor-tunity to meet th in demand In my re-lation to him, I have not done wlfatIn mo Moth to remove that enmi ty , Ihave not mudo ovory effort to l lvopeaceably wi th all men. -n. 1).

LESSONFor February 4, 1912.

FOLLOWING THE STAR.Mat thew 2.

These men who Fol lowed. th^e starbelonged to a class or profession, whomade it their business to study thestars and believed that they could getinstruction from the stars about.com-

"ing events. They \yere' also- priests..Tlrey were looked up to b.v"tlle~peiple-'among whom they lived as good menand wise teachers. Tlielr religion ha-1many points in common with 'the re-ligion of the Jews, hut they had notthe knowledge of God which the Jewshad. -

These particular! "Magi" were nodoubt choice men among theirbrethcrn, seeking with more earnest-ness than others to know all theycould about God and to serve Him,and God saw fit to give tli(em aspecial revelation. We cannot sup-pose that after they had paid homagato the divin.e Babe at Bethlehem theywent away no wiser or better thanthey had been before,. They had beenwatching-for light from Heaven., Thelight had been shown them and theyhad humbly followed it, and had foundHim who was to be the light of theworld. God who had brought themto Jesus could easily reyal to themas much as they needed to know con-»cerning Jesus and we may well be-lieve He did so.

Are we following .the star? Arewe watching for light and guidancefrom God every day and every hour,and following the light that is givenus to the best of our ability? Arewe. looking up .for guidance all thetime, or are we, like "Muckrake," toomuch occupied with the pursuits aridpleasures or with the anxieties anddistresses' of this life to be able tolift our eyes hopefully and trustfullytolGod.

^'Hitch your wagon to a star." LOOKup ,hopefully and trustfully and strive;to climb, and however poor the wagonmay be, you will be helped upward.Aim high.

What it was that led these winemen to Bethlehem we cannot know.It could hardly have been any oneof the mighty suns which we callstars, neither could It have been'oneof the planets which revolvn roundour sun and are commonly calledstars. All these objects are too faraway to give any definite directionto such a search as that of the wisemen. It would be easy to , assumethat what is called a "new star" mighthave appeared at that time and thatthey might have taken it as a signof the coming of a great personage,and as they saw the new star In thowestern sky in tho direction of Pales-tine and had heard that the Jewswere expecting a Meaalah, they mighthave inferred that thin new star wasBent to announce Ills appearance.That would havo been a simpleenough explanation of the reason fortlusir Journey to Jerusalem, but thoBiinio B ta r which-had led them west-ward from the. HuphrutcH to Judencould not havo led thnin southwardfrom Jerusalem to Iletlilehom, and nostar or planet could by any pOBBlbllltybuvo enabled them to loqato tho cara-vansory In which JOHUB wan lying;for any Btar would have Boomed qultoa i far "nwuy In tlio wost whnn theyKOI to Dethlchcni an It aeoniod wbonthey H t n r t e i l fro'm tho lSiipbnito».

to warn Its'people that they were sifi-ning against God.

Elijah was sent to Phoenicia tosave the life of a poor widow and herson and teach them, and- throughthem others about God. And a .littleglr,l was sent as a captive to Damas-cus to carry- the knowledge of thetrue God to Naaman.

'Daniel -a'rid ing companions weresent to Babylon and put In powerthere; after that city had become theseat of empire, In order that throug.them the knowledge ,of the true Gonand of His •wonderful works mightbe sent broadcast to the farthestbord_ers' of the Babylonian, and after-wards of the MedoipersiaUj empire.Morclecal and Nehemiah and Ezra hada-similar mission at tte court of Per-sia afterwards. •

And there-are hints all through thatnone of these testimonies was alto-gether lost. Undoubtedly God f wasable to save many souls by means ofthem, although the multitudes paidlittle attention; or only for a shorttime, as ln_th'e case of the people ofNineveh. . ..:,-.--;

Paul says that all meiT every wherewho do not serve God to the bestof their ability are under condemna-tion, because "the Invisible things ofHim since the creation of the world-are clearly seen, being perceivedthrough the things that Ure made,even His everlasting power and divin-ity. (Rom. 1:18-23.) Peter said toCornelius, "I perceive that God la norespecter of ...^persons,, but in everynation 'he that fearth Him and work-eth righteousness, is acceptable toHim." And Paul, speaking at Lystra,said that In the past generations Godhad. suffered the nations to walk Intheir own -ways: "And yet He leftnot himself without witness, In thatHe did good, and gave you fromHeaven rains and fruitful seasons,filling your hearts with food and glad-ness." (Acts 14:15-17.)

Prom these and other passages wehave a right to believe that even Inthe darkest lands and times it hasalways been possible for men whoearnestly desired to please God to, winHis tavor.

CHRISTIANENDEAVORTopic for February 4, 1912.

ABIDING AND ENDEAVORING.John 15:1-8.

This passage preserits-the essentialcondition' of success in Christian en-deavor, whatever may be the objectof method of that endeavor.

• "Abide In Me, and I in .you," Jesussaid. What an honor it is to receive

"Buch'an invitation! How great is theprlvlege which It confers upon us!And how incomprehensibly, great isthe power which 'it puts within ourreach! "If ye abide In Me, and Myword, abide in you, ask whatsoever yewill, and it shall be done unto you"—who can begin to estimate the valueof that prpmjs'e or-the extent of thepower which It bestows on those whocomply with the condition attachedto -it?" "I can do all things," Paul'Says, "through Him that strengthenethme.".

Many persons do a. great deal ofwork for Christ without accomplish-ing anything, and many who thinkthey are working for Christ are reallyanimated by some much leas worthymotive, although they are not them-selves conscious of the fact. Howmany there are who like to belong toa society, and will work hard forIt if jlotng so brings 'them Into proml-necefor Into pleasant social relationswith persons who attract them andwhom they, could not otherwise meetvery often;—who would" very soontire of the work If they got no creditfor it, and no prominence In it, andif It brought them no social advan-tages. In other words, how many arethere among those who are prominentin the work of Christian societieswho would be willing to do. as muchwork for Christ tn 'private arid nn;

seen ways? How many are there whoare trying to work for Christ in pub:icwho-spend very-little tlme,-lf anjvinprivate communion with Him?• i'As the branch cannot bear fruit

of itself except it abide in the vine,so neither can ye except ye abidein Me.."j "If a'-man abide not in Me,he Is cast forth as a branch, and Iswithered." Here is a startling con-trast. Unlimited capacity for fruit-bearing, on one hand, and being castaway as a worthless branch on theother hand. In Christ, power for ser-vice and Joy In service, and 'a richreward in the form ot achievement:although we may have to Walt till wehavo passed beyond tho veil beforewo can see the fruit of our labors.Out of Christ 'only weakness andworthlcsBiieBB, and Inefficiency as re-gards fruit-bearing.

It follows from all this that thefirst arid chief subject of Christianendeavor should bo to abide in Christ,and to place ourselves BO completelyat His disposal that Ho can abide inus and work througb us without hin-drance. If wo can attain to that con-dition, tlio rest will bo cany; and ourwork for Christ' will never bo In vain.Tint it IB only aa wo do attain in uomomeasure to that condition that wo canhope to work effectively for Chrlat.

AN AWPUir DISAPPOINTMENT.Gal. 6:7, 8.

.

__ is nothliig more terrible - intne Bible, or out of it, than. our Lord's."repeated warnings tnat many personawill meet with an aw^ul disappointment <•after this life Is over. They will flndthat they have been living in a falsesecurity, because they did not seekto know and do what God requiredof them, but only to follow out theirown' Ideas as to what Is right ,andproper. There are lots. of well-mean-ing, and in many ways, ,_weltdolngr:persons in the world to-day who have-never acknowledged even to them-selves the ainfuinees of their ownhearts and their need of Christ as aSaviour from sin, and who , rejecteither with Indifference or with dig- ,dnin the atonement for sin which waaprovided at the cost of so awful asacrifice on .God's part. What righthave such persons to expect favor or ------forgiveness from God after they havedeliberately refused to avail them- -••HelveB~of~His~offer'-'of mercy fn anth - "-through Christ? •

"Ye must ^be born • again," Jesussaid.. "ThaJ, -which is born of the flesh.Is flesh, and that which is born of theSpirit Is spirit."

The New Testament teaches v«ryplainly and in very many differentforms of expression that man cannotbe saved by his own goodness,, butonly through the atonement for sinmade by God Himself in the personof His Sqn, and that therefore alltrue righteousness begins with faithin Christ; that is with the acceptanceby us of God's offer of -mercy tiroughChrist. r

True Faith in Christ will Impel ustoi love Him, and true love for Christ•will impel us to serve Him. FaithJ.hat does_npt jead__tO;lovlng_servlce_ls_ _ i_therefore not trne faith. As Jamessays, that sort of faith "is dead in It-self." But good works that are notborn of faith and love and obedienceare not good at all In God's sight."This ta the work of God," Jesus said,'that- ye believe on Him whom Hahath sent." In other words, submis-sion to the will of God by acceptance ^of God's, terms and -receiving pardonas a free gift In Christ's name Is the t

beginning of a right relation betweenthe sinner -and God. And no 'mancan please God until he has placedhimself In a right attitude towardGod. ,

Many \wlll say to Mo In that day,"I-ord. Lord, did wo not prophesy byThy name, and by Thy name castout devils, and by thy name do manymighty works? And then will i pro- • ,fess unto them, I never knew you:depart from Me, ye that work In-iquity." Over and again, Jesus re-peated thov warning that many who>thought whlKTon earth that they weroliving right and' oven doing specialwork for Him will ,bo KiriovoiiBly dis-appointed In tho end.

How Is It with us Individual ly?Havo wo each made our ponce withGod In OhrlBt. and accepted Christafl our Saviour from sin ItBelf as wolton from tho condemnation duo to usfor Bin? Or, arn wo preparing foroiirsolvoH tho disappointment of find-ing whon It Is too lato that wo havoboon trusting in a false Itloa.

"It's funny what a j'nttie thing Utakes to send some people to the di-vorce court," a St. Louis lawyer ob-served. "Do you gee that couple overthere at the end of this row, the JastBeats but two?" It was at the Shubert, | «Tnat nlght when he , tarted to

put his box of soiled clothes out in.the up stairs hall. He admitted thathe had been in the habit of leavingthe box of soiled laundry on the floorof the closet—never on the shelf!

THE_JBUEIAL OF SIE JOHN MOORE.

(Wolfe.)

"And the lady with him was namedas co-respondent. I suppose," the manretorted. "Has he married herready?"

al-

"No," he's married to her yet," wasthe somewhat enigmatical response."You see,.! wouldn't let him have adivorce. There wasn't any other1 wo-man or other man' in the ease. It was

-simply1 a question of two people get-ting started wrong and going at agallop down the wrong road. Whenhe came to my office he was so sore

closet to get out his precious shirt,and the box was gone. He called toher to know what she'd done with itand she told him in the coolest andmost insolent tone—so he said—thatshe'd given it to the laundryman thatmorning. He said she pretended notto know anything about the box ofsoiled shirts and collars on the setteein the upper ball.

a drum was heard, not a funeral note,As his Corpse to the runijiiint, was hurried;

Not a soldier discharged his farewell shotO'er the grave where our hero \ve buried.

We buried him darkly at dead of night,The sods with our bayonets turning;

By the struggling moonbeam's inisty light,And the lantern dimly burning.,

No useless coffin inclosed his breast,Nor in sheet, nor in shroud, we wound him;

But he lay like a warrior, taking his rest,With his martial cloak around him.

Few, and short were the prayers we said; 7

And we spoke not a'word of sorrow;But we steadfastly gazed on the face of the dead.

And we bitterly thought 6f the morrow. ;_

"I asked him if she clawed his faceor punched his ribs, arid he got1 indig-nant and said whatever else might beeaid against his wife she never forgotto be a lady. That was some gain,

Then I asked If she triedto make trouble between him and hisfamily, and he said his family gotAlong better 'with her than he did. Iwas too sly an old dog to ask him ifhe might be partly to 'blame for thetrouble. That would have put him onthe defensive right away, and Iwanted him to fight for her Insteadof himself. I asked him If she was adirty housekeeper or neglected thechildren, and he Informed me thatthere wasn't a neater house or a bet-ter kept set of kids In town. Then hecame down to brass tacks.

We thought, as, we hollowed his narrow bed,-And smoothed dpwn Ins lonely pillow,

That the foe, and the stranger would tread o'er his head;And we far away on the billow.

Lightly they'll talk of the spirit that's gone,And o'er his cold ashes upbraid him.; , , _ r

But little he'll reck if they let him sleep onIn the grave where a Briton has laid him.

But half of our heavy task was done,When the clock struck the hour for retiring,

And we heard the distant and random gun •That the foe was sullenly firing.

Slowly and sadly we laid him down,From the field of-his fame-fresh and gory;

We carved not a line—we raised not a stone,But we left him alone with his glory.

Grey Eyes and his mother 'went (this morning?" said the mother offor a walk the 'other day. It wasn't) Grey Eyes. "Let's see;, no, It wasn tIntended to be a very long walk whenthey started, but, dear me! it" turnedout to be a regular pilgrimage beforebefore they came back.

This Is how it all happened: GreyEyes was rather bored with his littlered wagonrtTie~paInt~wasn't as brightas It might bo and one of, the Wheelswasn t acting just "right. The puppywas sick or something; anyhow hewouldn't play, and Grey Byes felt thaton the whole the world was not quitewhat he had been led to expect. Sohe went upstairs to his mother's doorand knocked. "Mother," he said, let'ago, walking to-day."

"Oh, Grey Eyes," said motherthrough the closed door, "I can't; I'mso dreadfully busy."

Grey Eyes was more downcastever. He started downstairs mourn-fully.

"Oh, Grey Eyes," called mother,suddenly. "I have some letters readyto mail. I'll Just slip on my thingsand we'll run up to the letter boxand mail them together."

"All- right," said Grey Eyes, In abrand new voice. An In less timethan it takes to tell It, Grey Eyes andthe mother wer&routdoors.;. ,

They were scarcely outsidehouse when something happened.

"What's .that , noise!" said GreyEyes. "It sounds like the river weused to hear In the mountains lastsummer.-, Why, it Is a river— a realriver — right/here In the street by ourvery house. It's a runaway river."And so It was a Run Away River rightin the city street,.

But no one was after it at all. Onthe contrary, two men stood at thehead of the street and turned a greathydrant round and round and let iwater rush out as fast as it wanted to.—^h bo," sang Grey Eyes, hischeeks very red. "Oh ho! .Let's fol-low it and see where It goes. Let'srun away, too, mother, you and I."Mother started to shake her head,then ail at once, the little worriedlines straightened out of her forehead,

TO PRESERVE THE EYESIGHT.

The woman who wishes to look•outhful and beautiful should not

neglect the care or her eyes and in-Identally the brows and lashes.There Is a peculiar fascination

about a pair of fine, bright eyes thatno woman can afford to Ignore.

The flrst thing to look after istheir health, as no _eyea can possiblybe beautiful that are not healthy.

If there is anything wrong withour eyesight consult an oculist, and

never pillow any but a skilled 'persono tamper with them. It (s bad econ-

omy to save money at the expense p£me'a eyesight. i

If you have nice eyeff-and~wlsu toseep them so, here are a few simple[on'ts to remember:

Hold the book on a level with theeyea.

Don't read on a moving train.Don't tax your eyes when .you are

ired or hungry.

The other evening a tenor with agood voice and a fair degree olmusical Intelligence sang two solosto an audience that crowded a movingpicture theatre to the doors In a largeNew England city. The audience wasmade up of "the plain people" whomLincoln thought "the Lord must haveloved because he made BO many of

..them." i _; ^The first eong was a selection from

one of the old operas. Rendered inItalian, It was not enjoyed by manyJn the audience, and it got but littleapplause. But th/ei next number wasfollowed by a tremendous burst ofhand-clapping. It was "Marguerite."The older persons went Into rapturesas they heard the^ song that had beendear to them a quarter of a centuryago. The young folks did what theirfathers and mothers had done beforethem. Hearing the song for the firsttime, they promptly fell in love with it-

Then ask him'about "McGInty" and "Ta-Ra-Ra'Boom-de-Ay." and see his face breakInto a broad smile.

The liking for those old songs wasnot merely a fleeting fancy. They

\ took hold in a permanent way upon'the affections. This they were ableto do because they had certaincharacteristics which carried them.along from one generation to another.\ For one thing, they appealed In a

sift "ilmpietlment that Is common to all human-ity. It might be the love of homeor of mother, or pride In the flag ofthe land. They might express some-thins of the romance young loversusually contrive to attach to theirsweetheartlng experience.

Another characteristic that Is al-ways found in these songs that fathers

-.and sons and mothers and daughtersalike find pleasure In,. Is that theyhave no element of vulgar suggestionIn their, composition. Tho plain peo-ple of whom Lincoln used to speakhave" never cared to annex as a per-manent treasure a "song with any Infusion of coarseness. The verses ofthese popular songs may have beenvery far from poetry and tbo senti-ment may have been laid on thick,but they never have been offensiveto good taste upon any other score.

Now mate words which have thesecharacteristics with a melody that Iscatchy and within tho roach of tbovoice and tho. musical comprehensionot tho average person, and you tfavethe right combination. Sometimes, Inan explicable way, a song that banall thoao things In Its favor will fallto got any attention troy tho massesof tho people. But tho uongu whichhave brought big rvvcnuou to tholrwriters or publishers or both hadpretty melodies, they luivo imujo nnemotional or a humorous appeal, undthoy liavo hail no tin go of vulKurlty.

Leaves Begin .to Turn." To be eure.Its appeal was not quite so wide aswas that of "Marguerite," because Itwas harder to sing. Ambitious girlswith good soprano voices.In^all.thelittle towns and big- cities throughoutthe country used to reach after thehigh notes and trills in that waltzsong. But the fact that some of the

weresome

singers with voices not so good to usethis song. And so it came about thattenors and sopranos, as well as con-traltos with a good reach, were every-where at work upon "When theLeaves Begin to Turn," and those whodid not sing it whistled It.

There was a young Englishman whosome years ago made it his aim toproduce songs that could be sung atthe fireside as well as beWnd_the .fobt.lights. This was Felix McGIennon.He was given__a severe musical train-In g> and he tried his hand at com-posing mu^ic of the classical varietywith little success. Then he went infor the things that the majoritiesliked; he "let the high brows go andlooked after the people who patron-ized the music halls."

The result was "Comrades." Andthe result of "Comrades" was stand-Ing contracts with 200 singers of Eng-land. What a host of folks on bothsides of the water have sung thatsong! Not so many years ago all the"gangs" of college boys and all theyachting parties, all the .schoolgirlsand all the street gamins, everybodywho could sing at all. was singingthat song, and those who could notsing it were whistling or humming it.It "caught on" and held on. The lines-'about "sharing each other's sorrowsand sharing each other's joys," helpedto make it a favorite.

There was another of tbls com-poser's jongs thatlhlLjthe fancy, ofthe multitude, although the words inthis Instance were written by anAmerican—:This-was-about-a -certaindamsel of whom we are told that "Her3olden Hair Was Hanging Down HerBack." According to the song, hercuria were 'down her back when shearrived at the Grand Central stationn New York city, but when she took

a train out of town the golden tresseswcro doneup In an elaborate coiffure,and there was a "naughty little twin-kle In her eye."

One morning in 1893 Charles K.Harris had the Byronic experience ofwaking to find himself famous. Thatwas when "After the Ball" scored abig hit. Orders for the song beganto come to tho publishers In 5000 lots.He had been an obscure banjo teacherIn Milwaukee, and had written several

Songs of the lullaby character haveoften achieved great ^popularity, andof these one of the favorites was"Peek-a-Boo." It was written by Wil-liam J. -Scanlon, and 'his royaltiesupon it at 6 cents a copy amountedto more than $30,000. He enriched

the stream was at the height of its jpopularity that the little Indiana townwas christened for him. Nearly allof Dresser's songs were of the "homeand mother" variety. In view of theirsentimental appeal, it seemed rathercruel for a -comedian to render "Onthe. Banks of the Wabash" • and putin between the verses a bit of "busi-ness ,"In which he asked theaudience, "Have you ever seen theWabash?" and replied confidently,"It's Just about BO wide," holding hisbands so as to indicate that It wasa very diminutive brook.

Of all these popular favorites, noneever was sung, played and whistledmore extensively than CharlesGraham's "Two Little Girls in Blue.'It was parodied everywhere, lisped bythe littlest tots and yelled with joyby the mightiest men.. Vet the com-poser got Just $10 for fhe song, and

a mint of money for the purchasers,they gave the composer an additional$5pO. Something of the tragedy of theUfo of many of these song writers lasuggested by the fact that when Gra-ham died he left a wife and five chil-dren In destitute circumstances, livingin A small dark room |n New York,absolutely bare of furniture, everychair sold to get money for food. Thewriter had no royalties, as he sold allhis manuscripts outright. The alco-hol-. -habit was responsible forthings:,,. His, last song had been written ona' cuff in a saloon. It was inspiredby his recollection of a New Englandgirl whom he had not seen for>ycart,.The Idea of writing a song about thegirl came to him In a bar-room, andas ho paper was to be had he jotteddown the air and the words on hiscuffs. Then he drank to the health ofthe "Mollie O'Neill" of the song.

• To .catalogue &ll- these songs thathave won the hearts of the people^-"the plain people" — is impossible. Thelist when one begins upon the inven-tory seems almost endless. .Therearo the successes of Raymon Moore,the composer of "My Fair Collean" and"Sweet Marie," the verses of the lat-ter song being the work of Cy War-man. Then there is "Little AnnieRooney." Plenty of people nowadays.get a lot of pleasure out of the singingor the hearing of that old song. Therewas a time when it was sung in near-ly every theatre from Boston to SanFrancisco.

• In such cases,, by the way, the situa-tion seems to- be very much like thatof which the novelists and- the poetshave told us in the Crimean war, howthe soldiers sang about their campfires and always included "AnnieLaurie." They 'all sang the samewords, but every man really wasthinking about his own sweetheart.There are many people, to-day singingthese sentimental songs of wni.ch'Annie Rooney" is a type, and they

do what the Crimean soldiers did,think ~6T"a~certaln gjrl and sing- aboutthe girl of the song writer.

Then there were — and are — "Sall-g': and "Wait Till the Clouds Roll

3y." They were enormously popular.So was Dave Braham's "Maggie Mur-)hy's Home," and Maude- Nugent's'Sweet Rosie O'Grady." Many peoplesneered, but the multitude went righthrough. one1 summer- singing - "Whoa

Emma," and "Sweet Violets" and'Pretty Pond Lilies" Were among themost taking ot the "flower songs."

DON'T RUN AWAY.c .-.• -

One cold winter morning a youngman emerged from the door of a hoicar in which he had been riding a l l -night.

He was thinly clad, dirty and bun--T. . ...The little village where the young

man alighted was his home town. Onthe outskirts was a cottage and afew (Lcrea of ground where his motherand Bister lived and where he wasJprn.

Four months previous the wander-ust overcame him an'd he left the

home and mother without warning ormuch, ado to go to a big city.

He .had no definite Idea regardingwhat he was going to do after he gotthere and ho haH very little money.

When he departed he was heedlessof 'the entreaties of. -Ms sister andthe tear-bedimmed eyes .of his mother." He was a youth, but thought he•vas.a man. He was head-strong"andimpetuous and the desire to. .go. ob- --.-.sessed--him. — '_''_'i.".'.'.' ....-—-—

He went, and for four months hewas buffeted a"bout in a malstrom ofhuman activity. He saw the sightsand succumbed to many temptations.

For a time he worked as a waiterin a cheap restaurant. He spent thegreater part of the nights In pool-rooms. He spent his money fasterthan he earned it.and- was pennilessmost- of the time./—v^ji

Finally he reached the level ofvagabondage. His clothes becamesoiled and Tagged." His appearancewas against him. He looked and feltguilts' of some, crime.

He had no frler.ds; he was lone-some, homesick and miserable.

It was then that he decided to goback to home and mothef.

It was about an hour before; dawnthat the freight .train which'broughthim tack stopped at the village. Uponalighting he struck out at a rapidpace, for home, encircling the townfor fear of being seen by some earlyriser. . .,

There was a thin layer of snow onthe ground'that chilled his feet wherethe soles of his shoes were wornthrough. As he approached the cot-tage he decided to go around theiouse and enter the kitchen.

He wondered what his mother —would say. He had not written to~ ~ "

was away.As he neared the cottage an In-

tense feeling of anxiety for her over-.came him. For the flrst time .sincehis departure he wondered If shewere well. He even wondered If shewas alive, and then he realized~howthoughtless, cruel and neglectful behad been. Shame, remorse and hu-miliation possessed him. Tears filledhis 4eyes as ho reached to open thedoor of the home he hafl forsaken.'

Before his hnnd reached the knobthe door opened and his mother stoodbefore him with outstretched arms.Her eyes were moistened with tears,but she smiled through them as sheembraced her boy.

She led him Into the cozy kitchen.The room was warm, for the flre badbeen burning for an hour or • more.The mother led her boy to a chairat tho table. On the plate beforehim were some hot pancakes. A cupof coffee had been poured for him.

Tho mother sat down opposite himand with a voice that trembled andlips that quivered she said:

"My son, I knew you were oom-Ing,"

Within -the heart of every goodmother th|>ro burns a fire of love thatnothing can extinguish. And as Inthe true story just cited, that flr«may burn so brightly at times thatthe Buffering mother can actually ae«and know of conditions that the great-est HnvuntH could not discern by anyproocmu at reasoning

A Case of Insanity

On Friday last, Jan. aSth, about12 30, there was a police call, thatEttore Quartino, of Middle Road,had guns and knives, going tp killeveryone in sight. Chief; Adamsand Constable Pinto went up. -Dr.Cunningham being there. Abouta. dozen of the neighbors were wait-ing for the Police to arrive. TheDoctor, Pinto and Adams, with:hree neighbors, went into thelouse. Ettore was alone. Thedoctor examined him and told ChiefAdams , he had better take himjack with him, which he did, andocked him in a cell. He made no

resistance whatever.- .About 4.50 that afternoon Adams

went around to the Hall. Ettorewas quiet. He phoned for Dr.Cunningham, who1 came, talkedo Ettore, then let him'out of the

cell,, examined him, and offeredlim medicine, which he refused toake. Then, quick as a flash hetruck Adams a blow on the side

jf the head, and kept right on fight-ng like a wild animal. The doct6r

and chief had their.hafids full try-ng to protect themselves from the

mad man. In the scuffle the doorame open, Ettore seeming to getenewed strength, it was impossible6 liold him. He broke away andairly flew down tbe^street. •••Adams came dow'u to Bellevuexf?. and Second St., and heard

mother police alarm which Be an-wered. They said a. crazy man

was at the Catholic Church, demol-shing things. He met Henry Nico-ai and, together, they started "forhe church. They found Officerrtyers with several others, holdingQuartino down. They handcuffedlim, tied his feet together, and car-

ried him around to the hall andocked 'him up. I,ater in the eve-ning, Mr. Nicolai employed JamesFitzpatrick to stay all night, keepthe hall warm and administeriis wants.

Next morning Justices StronseandrDemarco gaye-thejnan-a_heatngy—and committed—him—to—the

County Insane Asylum. Overseerof the Poor C. F. Crowell, andConstable Pinto took him to Smith'sLanding in an automobile.

LINCOLN'S BIRTHDAY, Feb. 12th.You realize that a truly great man does not

finally belong to any party or section,—not evento any country. "**

Lincoln's political career was partisan, sectional—it had.to be; but the man hiniself was neither;and to-day all sections of the country, and of theworld, acknowledge it, and honor his greatness.

There is nothing sectional, or local, or partisan about GOODCLOTHES, either. Well dressed men look about the same here asanywhere else, and they want to look the same.

A lot of credit is due to HART SCHAFPNER & MARX, whohave done great service to all of us by making their kind of Clothes—the quality, the style, the finish that critical men want.

We have done some service by having them here in your hometown in great variety, models and weaves, that will strike yourfancy. The Spring models are on their way from the Chicagowork-rooms, and we will have them ready to show you soon.

Just now wo are disposing of all remaining Winter goods onhand, and the reduction is so great that it will pay to invest.

$26 Suits are marked down to $18$20 Suits are marked down to $16

. $10 Suits marked down to $7.50Overcoats that wore formerly $26 and $22.60 ropricod to $18

The $20 and $18 grades are ropricod to $16and the $10 ones are ropricod to $7.60
