"
A woman knelt by tbe bed. She was very childlike looking. Sbe swept the bair back from ber face and regarded bim wltb terror stricken eyes.
A baby lay on the bed. Little rings of dark hair curled damply on its pallid
forehead. Its little face wus ghastly blue and pinched. Suddenly its bead drew back more violently ;ind Its limbs commenced to twltdi In long, convul- sive shudders.
She clutched the gov'ner's arm and shook it fiercely.
"Can't you do anything?" sbe de-
manded. "I don't know," be said; tben bis face
cleared. Heaven knows from wbat re-
cess of his life he drew tbe Informa- tion, but he found it.
"I know," be said briskly. "It's hot
water. Go get some bot water in some- tbin' big enough to put tbe kid Uk" Sbe disappeared like an arrow loosed
from a bow. The gov'ner slipped bis long, dexterous
Angers soothingly along tbe clammy
There was a sudden splash In the
hall, and the Rlrl inotht r cnnie breath-
lessly In with a small tin bathtuh.
"Uet Its duds off!" be said authorita-
tively. "Tbitf water ain't bot enough,
but it'll have to pass now." Tbe poor little mother's Angers were
tremhilnfr, so they were nearly useless.
She turned great. Imploring eyes on bim.
"Please put ber InT' she baW wliis-
pared. "I am afraid to lift ber."
"Blestr murmnrsd tbe gov'ner; then he stooped and lifted the tiny con-
vulsed body Into tbe water. He felt it
relax slightly In his hands as the wa-
ter submerged It.
"Throw a blanket or something over
to keep in tbe beatr' be ennamanded. "Tken skin out, can't you, an' get some better water? Oet a move on you too."
She had already gone.
He tnelt by the chair, regarding tbe small face be was supporting above the blanket anxiously. It was less
pinched now and lay lioiply on bis
band, small and pathetle "Such a little kid." be said softly-
"such a hloomln' little kldl"
The long laslies slowly lifted, and the dark eyes gazed into his. Slowly the purpled lids closed agaiiv and a tremor shook its body. He swore softly. "Ain't she ever
comln'? This layout will freeze the kid In a blasted niimite!"
He gathered the Uiby up in tbe blan-
ket and commenced to pace the floor,
watching tbe tiny face wltb strained attention.
The blue shadows deepened under Its
eyes; the tiny waxen nose plnch(>d
closer nnd closer; the small mouth seemed settling into a terrible calm. He swore as he walked. In tbat way
he managed in a measure to relieve his feelings.
"Is she dead?" asked a cboked, breathless voice at the door.
The girl mother's face was gbostly, but the or.ly thing be saw waa the steaming kettle In ber band. "Naw." be snarled; but be was not
so sure.
"Now, Just keep pouring—a little, a
little, to keep it warmin' up." Ten, fifteen, minutes passed.
A faint white glimmer of life com- menced to tremble across tiie baby's face. The blue 8hado\\ s slowly faded, and the wax while noulrils tilled.
Tbe gov'ner heaved a mighty sigh.
"She's comin' tbrougb." be an- nonnced triumphantly. "Now tfve ne a dry blanket."
He wraiipcd her warmly in it iind
laid her, weary and sleepy, bpt palely pink, on tbe bed.
Then he shook himself like a man coming out of a trance. He suddenly remembered Ills burglar's kit In the lower hall. I>awn was brcjikin^', to<j,

She went to the dresser and |iicked

"Would you i9lnd," sbe said desper-
ately. "If I gave you a dollar? I wish I could give you more, but it is all

Advlpf Proas SaiU,
Of the distinguished authors of Per- <la none perbaps has enjoyed a wider popularity than Sndi, who lived In the thirteenth century. He was a great traveler and a close observer, and bis
anecdotes and abort stories are de-
scrtbei as being founded on his own experiences nnd observations. In "P(r-
tilaii Poetry For English Ki n<li rs " Mr. S. Robinson quotes the following from Sadi's writings:
A pupil said to his instructor. "What am I to do, for people Incommode me with the fre(iuency of their visits to
such a degree that their converwition produces a great distraction of my. val-
uable time?" The teacher replied: "To every one
who- is poor lend snd from every one wbo Is rich borrow. Tbey will not come about yoti again."
Another example embodies excellent
advice: .\ silly fellow, having a pain In
his eyes, went to a furrier and asked bin for s remedy. The farrier applied
to bis eyes something which be would have given to an animal, and it blind-
ed lilm. upon which tliey made an ai»-
peal to tbe magistrate. The tuugisttate
said:
"This is no case for damages. It Is
plain tbat this fellow Is an ass or he would not h.ive gone to a farrier."
No man of enlightened understanding will commit weighty matters to one of mean ubilitles.
Tbe reasons wbMl lead men to rhoose a certain trade or profcssicm are often perhaps no more sensible liian tlie
reas.111 the boy In the following story from n .New York p-ip- r gave for want- ing n i)l.\cv In n I..-ink. The president of a bank told the story at his club.
"I don't think I ever told yon of our rt'ol: •:':ied oftlro l.'i.w l^rick '-at ." re-

X Poacr For Conkllav. When Roscoe Conkllng first began
the practice of law in New York, he lost a most Important murder case on which he had worke<l very banl not
only for the fee, which be neetied bad-
ly, but for a reputation which be liad
to make. Despite his efforts his client
was hanged. Later, when he present-
ed his bill to the man's f.-iinily, flii y re-
fused to i)ay It on tbe kiouihI that it
was excessive. He took tlie bill to
Charles O'Conor, the great criminal
lawyer, asking bini to pass Judgment as to tbe equity of bis charges. O'Con- or scanned tbe account very closely and tlien. turning to Cnnkling, very gravely
remarked. "Well, t'onkling. taking into
consideration the eiionnoiis amount of
energy and time you have devoted to
tbis caae. tbe cbarges are reoaonabie,
out see here, Conkllng. don't you thhik tbe man could have been banged for
less money tbat that?"
The P««riiilsr*n'ii Tall.
One of tbe nuwt entertaining chapters la natural history is that wbibb relates
to the many curious means that birds
and other animals possess of deceiving the eyes of tlwir enemies. .Mr. K. San-
dys, in writing of upland game binls,
calls attention to a remarkable and t)eautiful Instance. When the ptar-
migan puts on Its winter dress. It has a black tall. One might suppose that
this would attract attention to the bird
crouching on the snow. Init in fact It
serves for concealtucnt. lOvery projec-
tion on a snowlleld casts a dark shad- ow and that is what tbe tall of tbe mottonless ptarmigan looks like, tbe body of the bird rcsend)ling a mere hump on the wlilte liai-k;;round.
Old Time "Sliuplm." In t!ie family Hlble of a Koxboroi:gh
man there are a number of medical rules, written over seventy y«ars ago by the great-grandmother of tbe Bi-
ble's preaent owner. Among tbe rules are tbe following:
"A stli-k of britiistoue worn In tlio
poclict is good for them as has cramps." "\ loadstoue put in the place where
the pane is is beautiful for tbe Ubcu- matis."
".V bnsin of water gruel, with half n
quart of old rum in If, with lois of
brown sugar, is good for Cold in Hc.l."
"If you have hiccups, pinch one of
your wrists wile you count sixty, or
get somebody to skaro yoa and make you jHiniie."

Drltlah .Maaeain Trc«anres. Among tbe ninny costly treasures to
be found in tbe British museum Is the "Mains Psalter." tbe second book known to have been printed that bears a date and which Is valued at £5,UU0.
The books printed by Caxton represent lo the museum a fortune In tbemaelves. while tbe BIgIn marbles represent an enormous value only to be estimated In millions. The Ilosetta stone might fetch .mythlng from tl(KMK)0 to i:i5t),-

Tk« Real PeopI* of -Admm Bode." On my mother's nnd grandmother's
side I nin a direct descendant of Oeorge and .Mary l-".Naiis, and it is among the
Evaus' household we must look for sev-
eral of tbe cbaracters mentioned in
George Eliot's story of "Adam Bede." Thus Oeorgc and Mary Evans may be taken as tyjiiciil of Thins and I.lsbeth
Mede. Hobcrl I-lvans Is undoubtedly the original who suggested Adam Bede. Samuel Evans, tbe youngest soil, was certainly the prototype of Setlr Bede. iJeorge Ellot (Mary Ann Evans) was tbe daughter of .Vdiini Rede and tbe
granddaughter of Thlas and T.lslicth.

Startled tko Tailor.
A London tailor was once measuring Dr. Parker, who hud a quaint sense <if
humor, for an overcoat, when suddenly tbe doctor broke forth In blB Boat se>
pulcbral voice:
The assistant looked up and saw that
the doctor was extremely grave. He said:
"I beg your pardon, slr'^"
The doctor raised both his bands with a grand upward swsep snd said:
"Can you measure tbe loeffsMe? Can you e<ini|ir<'beti(l tin,' Infinite?"
"We'll make you a nice coat. Sir." re-
turned the ini/./lcd assistant, lHVplAC tbe doctor's shin, be said:
"That's about the length, slrf'
"Longer!" ejaculated ^e doctor in
determined tones.
"There, sir?"
"Ixinger!" thundered the great man. The tullor remonstrated. As a tech-
nical professional he could give pointa on tailoring to any prcacbar tbat ever wore a bead. "If you have it any longer, you won't
be able to walk." be remarlM^ eefi^v* sively.
