FABL IN The Ndw Fable of Everybody'# Friend and the Line-Bucker. In a sequestered Dump lived two Urchins, Edgar and Rufus, who went ' to the Post with about an equal Handi cap. They got away together down the broad Avenue of Hope which leads one Lad over the hills and far away to the United States Senate Chamber and guides another unerringly to the Fed eral Pen near Leavenworth, Kansas. When Edgar was a Tootsey he re ceived a frequent dusting with Ex treme Violet Talcum Powder and was allowed to play with a flaxfen-haired Doll named Celeste. About the same time, Rufus began to take Cold Baths and was propped up to look at Pictures of Napoleon and John L. Sullivan and Sitting Bull. At School each was a trifle Dumb. If Edgar fell down on an Exam, his Relatives would call a Mass Meeting to express Regrets and hang Crape all over the Place. If Rufus got balled up In Ills An swers, his Immediate Kin would pat him on the Back and tell him he was right and the Text-Book was wrong. Edgar would emerge from the Feathers every morning to find his Psfcents all lined up to wish him a new eet'Of Police Regulations. They held up the Rigid Forefinger and warned him that he was merely a Grain of Dust and a Weakling and a poor juvenile Mutt whose Mission in Life was to Lie Down and Behave. Rufus would be aroused each Sun rise by a full Military Band of 60 Pieces playing "Hail to the Chief who in Triumph Advances." Between the Buckwheats and the Sorghum, the two Family Bposters 'would slip him the pleasing Informa tion that never since the Morning Stars .pulled their first Harmonies had there bounded into the Arena another such Prodigy of Intellectual Brilliancy and Physical Valor. Consequently when Rufus hit the Fresh Air, with the McGuffey under the Arm, he wore his Chest about a loot in front of him. He ackuowledged with a Slight Nod the Salutation from some Member of the Town Board. Edgar, staggering under a Ton of Restrictive Advice, would spot Rufus Smeared and Disarranged. > at a Distance and sneak into an Alley, \ because he didn't wish to get Blood all I over his Clean Waist \ Whenever Edgar was forced intq a ^Battle and came home smeared and disarranged, his Mother would go to her Room and Cry softly and Father would Paint a vivid Word-Picture of a wreiun eutuuiug uu uiw uojiuwd - with a Black Cap over his Head. Then Edgar would crawl to the Hay Mow and brood over his Moral In firmities and try in a groping way to figure out his Relation to Things in General. But, when Rufus appeared all drip ping with Gore, his Seconds would cool f him out and rub him with Witch Hazel and pin Medals on him and in dicate to him on a Chart the exact latitude and longitude of the Solar r- Plexus. * His Parents made the Grave Mis f take of backing him to the Limit. \: They pumped him full of Courage even' Morning and set him out to Lick I all Comers. ! No wonder he became as pugnacious as U. S. Grant, as conceited as a Suc cessul Business Man and as self-as sured as a Chautauqua Lecturer. Everyone disliked him intensely but just the same they stepped off into thte Mud and gave him the entire double width of Cement Sidewalk. Edgar, on the other hand, was one of the most popular Door-Mats that ever had "Welcome" marked up and down his Spinal Column. All those who scratched Matches on ' him and used him as a Combination Hall-Tree and Hitching Post, used to remark that he didn't have an Enemy in the World. t They had corraled his Goat, so he 1 had to play the Part himself. It had been dinged into him that True Politeness means to wait until everyone else has been Served and then murmur a few Thanks for the Leavingc. Besides, his Parents had convinced him that if he went Fishing he wouldn't get a Nibble, and if he climbed a Tree he would fall and break bis Leg. and if he tried to ma , nipulate more than Two Dollars at one itime, he would go Blink. Therefore, when both were in Col lege, Rufus acted as plunging Half ES $ rxFOM IG ULUlvUL ADt eopyjt/GHrffi oopge AOfr Back, with Blue Smoke coming fyom his Nostrils, and achieved the undying Distinction of being singled out by Walter Camp. Edgar sat up on the Bleachers with 2,800 other Mere Students and lent a +rv a Snnj nhftllt Alma 4 ua v ci mfc jl cuui bv m ? - ? 'Mater. Even the Undergrads could not take the Tuck out of Rufus. He was fresher than Green Paint and his Work was Raw, but he was so Resilient that no one could pin him to the Mat and keep him there. When a Boy has been told 877 times a Day for many Years that he is the Principal Feature of the Landscape, it takes more than ordinary Doctoring to isuru mm. r He left College thoroughly convinced that the World was his Oyster and that he had an Opener in every Pocket. He began grabbing Public Service Utilities by Strong-Arm ^ methods, whereupon a lot of Uplifters became excited and wanted some one else to head him off. j He put things Across because when he tucked the Ball under, his Arm and beg^n to dig for the Goal of his Im mediate Ambition, all the Friends of Public Weal were scared Blue and re tired behind the Ropes. Edgar took his Degree out into the Cold World and began to make apolo getic Inquiries regarding Humble Em ployment which would involve no Re* sponsibilities. He became an Office Lawyer of the dull gray Variety with a special Apti tude for drawing up Leases and ex amining Abstracts. He could not face a Jury or fight a Case because the fond Parents had put the Sign on him and robbed him of all his Gimp. But a Nice Fellow? You know It. Anyone who had a Book to sell, or a Petition to be signed, or a Note that needed endorsing came dashing right into Edgar's Office and Hailed him as the Champion Patsy of the Universe. Not one of these ever ventured into the Lair pf thfi Street Railway Czar, for he knew that Rufus might jump over the Mahogany Table and bite him in the Arm. Even Edgar, when he made a Busi ness Call on Boyhood Friend and lov ing Classmate, was permitted to wait in the Outer Room, resting his Hat on hi? knpps. and mineline on terms of Equality with the modish Typist and the scornful Secretary. And when they went away to look at some Properties, Rufus took the State room while Edgar drew an Upper. Any great big Brute of a Man with a Tigerish Instinct for jouncing on each Good Thing and then hanging on to it like Grim Death, never can win the Esteem of the envious but anaemic Gallery. Everyone at- the Club referred to Edgar as a Good Old Scout, but when all the Push gathered at /the Round Table and some one let fall the Name of the High-Binder, they would open up on kuius ana fan niiu iu a. vtuur per. Then Rufus -would enter in his Fur Coat, upsetting Furniture and Serv ants as he swept through the Loun ging Room. Immediately there would t>e an Epi demic of Goose Pimples and a Rush to shake Hands with him. Rufus was sinfully Rich, but never theless Detestable, because his Family had. drilled into him the low-down Habit of getting the Jump on the Other Fellow. Edgar may live in a Rented House, but he will always have the inward Satisfaction of knowing that he is a sweet and courteous Gentleman with Pink Underwear, and a # Masonic Charm on his Watch Chain. When Edgar answers the Call, the Preacher will speak briefly from the Text, "Blessed are the Meek." If the Death Angel succeeds in pull ing down Rufus, the same Minister wiL find a Suggestion for his Remarks in those inspiring Words, "I have fought the Good Fight." MORAL: The Scrapper is seldom beloved but he gets a Run for his Ticket. Pretty Beads Made of Salt. To make salt beads, heat two hand fuls of common salt as hot as tho hands will stand. Warm one cupful of cornstarch, .and mix with the salt. Tnirn rmo p.unful of hot water and col | or It any desired shade with water | colors, and use to form a paste with I the salt and corn starch. Mold with the hands into the sized bead required, and have a large cush ion* ready, so that when a large pin is stuck through each bead the pin can be at once stuck into the cushion. One can make beads all of the same size or graduate the sizes, threading the large ones in the middle of the string, and smaller ones at the ends, or groups of large beads can be sep arated by smaller ones. "Between Devil and Deep Sea." The phrase "Retween the devil and the deep sea" has probably no refer ence to the ancient fighting between the Picts and the Britons, though un doubtedly it has long been in use in Scotland. Its origin would appear to be lost in obscurity^ though possibly it may have some reference to the New Testament story of the swine of Gadara. Useful on Occasion.

Seville, Cordova, Granada, Barcelona, Valencia, Malaga and Many Other Places of Kingdom Can Boast an Up-to-Date Equipment. London.?For the average tourist who is in search of familiar comforts In unfamiliar surroundings the great Spanish cities of today offer every inducement. Madrid today is well nigh as gay and as fashionable as Paris. Seville, Cordova, Granada, Bar celona, Valencia, Malaga and many another city can boast an up-to-date equipment. The food is Spanish, but the cooking can be French on request. Off the main roads the comforts show a very rapidly descending Bcale; but against this must be put the absolute security. The Spanish brigand no longer haunts the Sierra Morena or the Guadaramas; he has become a hotelkeeper. The old-time smuggler no longer riBKs his life as aforetime; he considers he is defying the law sufficiently If he grows a few tobacco plants on the sly, or doe's a little poaching in the state forests that the guardamontes do their best to patrol. Education Is still little more than a name in Spain, but it "is the most elo quent country in Europe, and many a man can make the speech he cannot read. The Spaniard takes the latest and most advanced ideas of govern ment, accepts the most amazing theo ries of life and law, but, given reason able conditions of life and fair treat ment, is not hard to handle. Among the people speech tends to usurp the place of action. For the Spanish woman the outlook is not quite clear. It Is said In Spain that the hold of the church upon woman's life is not as strong as it was only a few years ago, and Spanish women are begin ning to think for themselves. They are the most prolific mothers in Europe, and have the. highest in fant mortality. It may be sympto matic of their new state that they are tending to disArd the mantilla, to regard national dress as a fancy costume, and to lock to Paris for their fashions. This refers to the women of the thriving cities, the com fortable classes of Madrid, Barcelona, Seville. Spain tends to become self OH The Work-Girl of Vigo. conscious, /to respond too freely to commercial enterprise and Paris. She Is, of course, very much better off as a result of the development. The Spanish exhibition unay well show a Spain that was, and that is the Spain of yesterday and today, not the Spain of tomorrow. That will hardly be worth exhibiting. Says Snake Attacked Him With Ax. Daretown, N. J.?Gilbert S. Shute, a reputaDie saiem county lariuei, uc* clares that a six-foot snake attacked faim with his own ax while he was at work on his farm. Shute was trimming out fence corners, so he says, when he stirred a white-throated blacksnake. ; The snake showed fight and Shute : hurled an ax at its head. The snake, he says, coiled around the handle of the ax and lunged at him, ax and all. Shute says he killed the snake with a fence stake. Baboon Baby Thrives. St. Paul, Minn.?The baboon born January 3 in a barn at the rear of 446 St. Anthony avenue is healthy and thriving, giving promise of growing to full baboonhood. Lew Herschal, an animal trainer, says that baboons born In captivity seldom live more than a few days. He is certain the animal born in St. Paul is one of the few of the species born in America., Town Untaxed Ten Years. Fargo, N. D.?For nearly ten years the village of Wolf, with a population of 150, has been escaping taxation, ac cording to C. R. Kositzky, secretary of the state tax commission. Although the town was platted ten years ago, the owner failed to record the plat. The state tax commission will begin suit to recover back taxes. Think Detective Bureau a Hotel.

SELLERS, Director of Evening Department, The Moody Bible Institute, 1 Chicago.) LESSON FOR JULY 12 GREATNESS THROUGH SERVICE, j LESSON TEXT-Mark 10:32-45. GOLDEN TEXT?"The Son of man also came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many." Mark 10:45. , [ TQis is a lime in ine iue ui uui Lord that vibrates with interest as we rapidly approach his last tragic week upon earth. At the beginning of his Perean ministry (Luke 9:51) we read that Jesus "steadfastly set his face to go to Jerusalem." Now that journey is nearly ended. He had reached a place near Jericho. Know ing the antipathy'of the rulers, those who journeyed with Jesus were | "amazed," and some as they followed him on this journey were "afraid" (v. 32). Jesus, therefore, and for a i third time, plainly telle his disciples I what is about to take place in Jeru- >1 salem. j The contrast of self is the distin- i guishing feature of the lesson of < the self-seeking disciples over against the self-renouncing Master. Assurance of Faith. I. The Self-seeking Disciples, vvk 32* 41. As Jesus clearly spoke to those who in amazement followed him he told of his condemnation and deliver- , ance to the Gentiles; his persecution, death and resurrection (vv. 32-34). It was then that James and John pre sented their request. Matthew teirs us (20:20) that they made it through their mother. It was an ignorant re quest, for they knew not what it in volved (v. 38), nor whose it was to grant it (v. 40). He had spoken with great clearness, about his suffering I anH rtpath und immediately they ask a position in his glory. This may in dicate the assurance of their faith in him, but it certainly Intimates that they did not comprehend the suffering of which he had been speaking. We need to remember, however, that they believed in that approaching hour of his glory. They desired, though, to have an association with him in his power and authority, .thus showing their mixture of eelflshness, though Jesus seems to have ignored it. Was this request incited by the mother? Evidently not to a degree, for the Mas ter addresses his reply to the dis ciples. In that reply he does say that to occupy such a position was denied them, or might be quite pos sible. What he does lay stress upon was what was involved and that this was not the time or place to lay em phasis. in this new kingdom, upon any other idea than that of equality. Je sus had seemingly advanced these two disciples, Mark 5:37; 9:2 and 14:33. They may have hoped that the kinship of their families would * A -J A 4. oe to uieir auvtiuutgc. ai. mo v. wen question was a general one (v. 35), then It Is more specific (v. 37). Jesus then clearly declared all that was Involved In his pathway of Buf fering and propounds his question, "Are ye able to drink the cup that I drink?" (v. 38). It was a heroic but -ignorant answer they made, "We are able." Their language reveals the character, however, of those who did enter into that fellowship with him which eventually led them to martyr dom. He told them they should be baptized into a strength to do and live AV1- H?i + 4-Viof on/?li 111 IS ill? UL ttuauuuuuicut, UUk. umw* a life could not command any pre eminence on that account. Their re quest was otherwise a correct one. In order to share with Christ In hie glory we must share his cup and his bap tism of shame and suffering; see 14:36; Matt. 26:39; John 18:11; ,11 Tim. 2:12; Rom. 8:17; Matt. 16:24. James and John (v. 39) did not stop to meas ure the' meaning of their request. Even so we today often hear the people make glib professions of fealty which likewise fall under the acid test of adversity, Matt. 26:56. James was the first, Acts 12:3, and John the last, Rev. 1:9, of the apostles to suffer for the sake of the Word of God. Wanted Places of Authority. II. The Self-renouncing Master, w. 41-45. In answer to the Indignation (v. 41) of the other ten disciples Je sus without any manifest impatience calls the disciples "unto him" and sets before them their absolute equality, and yet at the same time a way of ex altation, v. 43. Jesus is ever calling us "unto him," for he desires to lead us out of lives of selfishness into those of fulness and service. These ten were not altogether without self ishness; they wanted the places of au thority also. Once before, chapter 9:33-36, this same controversy had arisen and was again manifested (Luke 22:24) and that, too, at a sol emn occasion, as he announced his ap proaching death and instituted the supber. It was not till after Pente cost that it became possible for a dis ! ciple to write "in honor prefer one | another," Rom. 4: 10, Phil. 2:3. This reply of Jesus to the Indignation of the ten is a teaching by contrast and accurately describes the Gentile meth od of self-advancement Over against It he sets forth the method' of the ~? " Till fVilc nrooont /lotr OUil VJL iua?f * ?? 4/1 VdVMV UM./ Aich are the methods of those who are of this world\only. In his kingdom it is different, great-' ness is inverse ratio until we find the greatest is the one who serves most perfectly. In emphasizing this verse (v. 45) it is quite common to omit the last clause, "and to give his life a ransom for many." So to omit it is to neglect his work of redemp tion and overly emphasizes the altru istic aspect of Christianity. Men are not saved by any such method. Je sus is the greatest example of a per fect servant because he did give his life. Let us also remember that he gave that life and that no man took It from him, ^John 10:18. FAMOUS OLD MEXICAN CITY Sightseers Look Upon Mitla as One of the Chief Points of Interest In the Country. Among the many ruined cities of Mexico dating back to antiquity, is Mitla, of unusual Interest to the sight Beer. The name is a contraction or corruption of the Word Mictlan, mean ing "tbe place of death." The modern village and the ancient ruins occupy the center of an arid plain or valley, surrounded on all sides by equally aria miiB, on me nignesi summit of which are the well-preserved re mains of a great fortress, whose walls are of a rough construc tion and without ornament of any kind. Nearly in the center of #the plain five great groups of buildings Btand out completely exposed. Many of them are now nearly shapeless mounds and masses of ruins. Two great groups, however, are in compar atively perfect preservation, a third is incorporated with an old church, and a fourth, the great sacrificial mound, is^ surmounted by the ruins of a very ancient church. The principal buildings are of stone masonry. ITCHING, BURNING ERUPTION Thomaaville Ala.?"I suffered with eczema on my hands and feet two or three yearB. About eleven years ago I became troubled with an itching, burn ing eruption which came on my hands and feet in little water blisters and in about a day or two when I would let the water out or wash it out, using my hands, then the places would fester and itch to beat the band. I could not do any work that was rough on my hands at all. It caused me great suf fering and inconvenience. "I tried everything that I knew of or was told and never was really re lieved .until I began using Cutlcura Soap and Ointment. I would wash the parts in water with the Cuticura Soap and then when I dried them I would ap ply the Cuticura Ointment on the sur face in the daytime, and at night I would get a soft piece of cloth and apply the Cuticura Ointment on my hands and let it stay that way all night.

Speaking of fleas?and they are a common topic of conversation In some parts of the United States?as com mon a subject as mosquitoes in New Jersey or flies in other places?certain British and other scientists have late ly discovered that a flea becomes old and Infirm within twenty days after its birth, although some fleas have been known to live to be ninety days old when especially 7ell-fed. Up to the fifteenth day of Its career the flea Is able to do a considerable amount of execution. After that length of time It becomes rather sluggish and indifferent. These are Important ad ditions to the literature of the flea.

Some authorities hold that the or igin of the visiting card lay in the cir cumstance that, when Pericles first laid siege to the heart of Aspasla, he sent her a bouquet to which, fearful lest she might not guess from whom the compliment proceeded, he caused' to be attached a strip of wood wherein his name was cut According to Bertarelli, who, among others, haB been at much pains to com pile the history of the card, it is diffi cult to say whether it was first used in Greece or in China. However that' may be, it seems to be an ascertained fact that the visiting card did not real ly obtain to any extent in Europe un til the time of Louis.
