TervYear-old Julia Gets Into Bad
Gracas of Mother by Giving
Tramp a Half-Dollar.
"Be not forgetful to entertain j
strangers; for thereby some have en- \
. tertained angels unawares.''
* < The foregoing quotation is from
chapter xlli, verse 2, Book of Hebrews,
and It is Introduced solely because it
constitutes a vital part of this story.
Julia Is ten years old and she goes to
Sunday school. It appears that on a
recent occasion the Sunday school <
teacher had considerable to 6ay about !
this matter of "entertaining angels 1
unawares." Anyway, it made a deep
impression with Julia.
A few days after the lef on Julia's i
mother left her in charge of the house
for a few hours. When the mother returned
she went to a particular cup
in tho cupboard to extract therefrom
due-half dollar. In this cup is kept
the family pin money, and Julia's
mother knew that she had put 50
tents there before she had gone out.
But the half dollar was gone. There
was an expression of anxiety on
Julia's face and mother scented mischief.
"Did you take that money?" asked
the mother, somewhat severely.
Julia broke into tears: "I gave it to
a man that came to the back door,"
sobbed the little girl.
"Gave it to a man!" exclaimed the
mother. "What for?"
"I thought he might be God," tearfully
replied Julia.?Kansas City Star.
HOW IT 8EEMED TO HIM.

One Universal Symbol.
"Scientists at work on a universal
language have one symbol to start
with that already has the same meaning
the world over," a traveler said.
"That is the skull and crossbones. Its
speech is even more universal than
i
music or money. .uusn-ui ?aiu? vmfer
In different countries, so does
money, but from one end of the earth
to the other a skull and crossbones
means poison."
British Metropolis Leads in Mud.
According to L. Meerson Clancey of
St Louis, who Is now in London,
there is more mud in the British metropolis
than In any other of the big
cities he has been in. and his record
includes Paris, Berlin, Vienna,
New York. Washington, Baltimore, St.
Louis and Milwaukee.
Improved Vacuum Cleaner.
A new vacuum cleaner, designed to
be operated by water power in a

Phoenix. Ariz.?About the origin of
most of the craters of the earth's surface
there is little dispute. They are
of all sizes. We find them in the
Sandwich Islands, with floors from
three to four square miles in area.
These have reminded Professor Pickering
of nothing less than the ring
craters on the moon. In Arizona,
near Canon Diablo, is a crater-like depression
4,000 feet in diameter and
500 feet deep. The rim can be seen
from a great distance, and, such rims
being called "buttes," this particular
rim is known as Coon butte. The irregular
contour of the rim is marked
by broken rocks, some as large as a
house. The outer slopes down to the
plain are covered with similar masses
pieces of many tons weight having
been thrown thousands of feet away
from the crater. But there is nc
lava about the butte, and this would

for some time he held the view thai
Coon butte must have been formec
in a similar manner. This view has
of late been revived. Prof. Eliht

LESSON FOR SEPT. 22.
FEEDING THE FIVE THOUSAND.
LESSON TEXT-Mark C:30-44.
GOLDEN TEXT?"Jeeus said unto
them, I am the bread of life."?John 6:36.
This parable marks the high level
of the year of popularity In the life of
our Lord. It Is such an Important
miracle as to be the only one recorded
by all four gospel writers.
The returning disciples (v. 30/ are
| urged by the Master to come with him
Into a desert place that they might
| rest, and aUo that he might comfort
their hearts over the death of John
the Baptist. "They had no leisure."
Jesus knew the need and also the
proper use of leisure. But the multitude
would not grant this and flocked
to his retreat In the desert. They saw
and followed that they might listen
to his gracious words or behold some
new wonder, but Jesus also saw and
ministered, v. 24. Carlisle said he saw
in England "forty millions, mostly
foolB." Not bo with Jesus. He saw
and was moved, not with Barcasra, but
with compassion, which compassion
took a tangable form of service. It Is
Interesting to note In verse 34 that the
compassion of Jesus led him first of ,
all to teach. It is better to teach a
man how to help himself than to help j
the man. We also infer from this
verse that the soul of a man Is of
more value than his body. It Is not
enough, however, to say, "God bless
you, be fed and warm." when a man
Is hungry. So It Is that Jesus listened
to his dlclples when they saw the
physical need of the multitude.
A Great Task.
St. John tells us In this connection
of the conversation "1th Philip. Phil- 1
Ip lived In Bethsalda near by, yet to
feed this multitude was for him too
great a task, even with his knowledge
of the resources at hand, John 6:5-7.
Yet we need not be surprised at Philip's
slowness of faith. Moses in like
manner was once nonplussed how to
feed six thousand in the wilderness,
see Num. 11:21-23. It Is not so much j
as to how great the need nor how llt|
tie we possess, but rather Is the little
given to God.
Another disciple, Andrew, who had
discovered the Saviour unto Peter, dls1
covers as though In desperation a boy
: whose mother had thoughtfully provided
him with a lunch consisting of
five barley blscuitB and two small
dried herring (John 6:9), at least that
much remained. It is a great commentary
upon the tide of Interest at
this time that this boy should not
hare eaten hla lunch, for a boy's hunger
Is proverbial. It seems aB though
loans omnhiuiiM the helnleesness of ,
the diciples in order that he may show
his power. His command, "give ye
them," (v. 37) teaches us that we are
to give such as we have, not look to
others, nor do our charity by proxy.
Prov. 11:24, 25.
Again the Saviour asks his disciples
to see (v. 38) as though he would
teach them the boundless resources of
his kingdom. Give what you have and
he will bless and Increase it to the
supplying of the needs of the multitude.
The secret of success was when
; he took the loaves and "looking up"
for God also saw on that day, and
blessed it.
We need to observe the systematic
procedure. The people seated or reclining
upon the ground in ranks or
: by companies. The Master blessing
and breaking the boy's cakes and giving
first to the disciples, for God only
works such miracles through human
agencies, and then giving to the people.
The result of this systematic procedure
was that "all did eat," and
further, they were satisfied, v. 42. Not
alone, however, was there Divine order
and lavishness, but there was
economy and thrift as well, for Jesus
gave careful directions as to the fragments.
The lavishness is shown by
the fact that the baskets Into which
the fragments were gathered were
each largj enough in which to Bleep.
\ ; l.iviny di cau.
The conversation process was &
; stinging rebuke to the Improvident
i orientals, and to the present day prodl,
gals of that wonderful bounty with
. which God has blessed our land.
God gives to us that we may use.
. Joy dies unless it Is shared. Jesus,
, the living bread (John 6:48) will satisfy
hunger, and life, aa bread, generates
In the human body heat, energy,
vitality, power, etc., so he would feed
r the hungry souls of mankind. We
> havo at hand the Word; It Is for lack
r of It that men die In the deepest sense
j of that word.
f The poverty and perplexity of the
. disciples in his presence and the presi
ence of this great need Is being rei
peated over and over today and yet It
Ib absurd. We have not enough to
feed the multitude. Our few loaveB of
amusements, mental activities, etc..
k will not feed them, but when we break
unto them the Living Dread they have
enough and to spare. >\ nen our i^oru
s has the handling of our loaves then
> they are charged with new power and
are for the satisfying of the nations.
s Jesus welcomed the multitude
" though the disciples would send them
away. Jesus saw their need spiritual3
ly though the disciples saw only the
B physical need. Jesus saw the abun^
dant resources of the Father t Phil.
4:19>, whereas the disciples saw only
11 their poverty and helplessness.
0 The disciples had. however, learned
to know Jesus well enough to obey,
and so though his commands seemed
out of reason they at once began to
5 give to the people, and as they gave,
not before, the food was multiplied
They drew not from an earthly, but
a heavenly, storehouse. The multitude
^ also obeyed. "If ye be willing and obedl
ent ye shall eat of the good of the
land." Isa. 1:19. Nor shall one be
^ overlooked. He. Indeed. Is the giver ol
? j every good and perfect gift.

WOMAN WORKS OUT PROBLEM
Mrs. Sarah Erickson Declares the Hen
Laya an Egg at the Same Hour
She Was Born.
What time o* day
Does a hen lay!
That question has puzzled poultry
fanciers for unnumbered decades, but
now, it seems, It has been satisfactoril
solved by a woman. She is Mrs.
Sarah Erickson of Falconer, N. Y.
Having kept chickens for 37 years,
she believes she qualifies as an expert
in this line of effort.
"I have worked out the problem,"
she declares. "By using marked legbands,
trap nests and alarm clocks attached
to the nests I have determined
that a hen lays an egg at the same
hour, minute and second that she was
born, or, rather, hatched. For instance,
if the hen happened to be able
to peck its way through its shell at
7:43 a. m., she will lay an egg at precisely
7:43 a. m. And she will do this
without variation every time she is inclined
to lay. I have kept close, systematic
watch on my hens for five
years, and I have never known the
rule to fail."
CRUST COVERED BABY'S HEAD
532 Brunswick St., Baltimore, Md.?
"My baby's face broke out in pimples,
which after bathing would weep and
form scabs until hla head and face
were completely covered with & crust
and his hair all fell out. It was cross
and would not sleep. Each day it
spread until his entire face and head
were covered with weeping sores. I
tried Beveral prescriptions, but did not
find any relief. Then I decided to try
Cuticura Soap and Ointment.
"After using them two or three
times the sores dried up and after a
half dozen applications all disfigureTn
lofld the n thrMk !

weeks the sores and scales were completely
gone, and baby's skin as
smooth and clear as when he was first
born. Cuticura Soap and Ointment
cured him." (Signed) Mrs. Lottie V.
Stelnwedel, Jan. 14, 1912.

Sang for Sultan.
Mulai Hafid, the ex-Sultan of Morocco,
while staying at Vichy, In France,
made an excursion to Les Ardolsleres,
says the "Matin," where Napoleon III.
uBed often to go for rest. Three young
girls, sisters, timidly approached the
Sultan and asked him to sign postcards.
Mulal Hafid consented on condition
that they would each sing a
song to him. Two of the girls at
once complied, and the delighted Mulal
Hafid wrote on their cards words
which, translated, mean: "Like Napoleon
III., I have visited Les Ardolsleres,
where I have enjoyed, together
with the calm and freshness of nature,
the grace and charm of the
voices of Miles. Pauline and Clotilde."
The third girl did not know j
how to sing, but one of her sisters
having sung for her the Sultan added
the name of Gabrlelle.
Obliging.
A young man who had never testified
before was called before the court
as a witness In a certain case. He
was somewhat flustered over the attention
that was being paid him, and
mumbled his words so that the young
woman stenographer could not hear
them distinctly. He was told to speak '
plainly and to turn toward the 6tenog j
rapher.
"Speak to the stenographer," said
the prosecutor.
At that the young man arose and
with a deep bow to the lady said,
"How do you do?"?Satire.

Crime to KIm.
In Russia it is a crime for lovers
to kiss in public, and not very long
ago two young men and two young
women were arrested in Odessa for
having been guilty of this ofTense.
They had all been dining together in
a restaurant, and kissed on parting.
They were condemned to short terms
of Imprisonment, and the sentences
were confirmed on appeal. The general
