.HY KATK 8. UATHH.
Mr. Sherman was lu his offloe look- .
ing over thu morning mall, when tho
door opened, and Ashton, the bead
clerk, looked in.
"Stanley went home sick yester
duy," be ?aid " and bin folks have just
M iit woid that ho'* down with typhoid.
Don't know what in tho world wearo
roinjr to do without Mm. Worst time
n the whole year he could have taken
to be off. and not another young fellow [
Werth a picayune in this good-for
in thing little town." \
"That allV" usked Mr. Sherman,
with a shrug of hi* shoulders. " lSuttt
rieas Is rather driving, I admit, but I
hardly think tho whole establish
ment will have to shut down because
?.nc of tho junior clerks la off duty.
VYo shall manage somehow. Ashtou;
wo always have Ah?good-morn
ing I"
Some one else had appcured at tho
open door, a young man of perhaps
twonty-two or throe, though he might
easily have been taken to be ten or
oven fifteen yeurs older, ho looked so
utterly worn and helpless.
"I just stepped in to Inquiro If you
nueded uny holp," ho said.
Air. Shorman and Ashton involun
tarily exchanged glances, ther looked
at the Inquirer, whu stood waiting a
.reply, In an apathetic way, apparently
not expecting a favorable answer.
'' A re you a good accountant and pen
man V asked Mr Sherman.
" I write a pluln hand, und I am said,
' to bo very quick at Ugures."
Somo other questions were asked
and answered satisfactorily.
" We havo a temporary vacancy
through the sickness of the junior
clerk. You are probably looking for
u morn lucrative position," said Mr.
Sherman, finally.
" I am looking for work," was the
roply. " Half a loaf Is better than no
bread. If you will try me, I will do
my best to satisfy you."
The result was that an hour later
ho was busily at work in the sick
Stanley'* place.
" I cannot Imagine what wo should
have done if Hendorson had not come
along," AhMom remarked to Mr. Shor
man a week or two later. " And ho is
worth a do/.en of Stanley. He's tho
beat worker wo havo, and you can de
pond on him evory time."
" We shall not bo obliged to shut
down, thon on account of Stanley's
sickness? I believe I told you wo
should probably manage iu some way,"
replied Mr. Suerman, with a 6mile.
"?As you say, Henderson is doing well.
I am much pleased with him mysolf."
Tlmo passe 1 swiftly, and tho weeks
grow Into months.
Stanley was back again, but Hendor
son bad made a place for himself.
?? Worth more than all tho rest put
together," Ashton often said. "Never
had auybody tako hold so beforo and
lie so thoroughly reliable. But I'm
free to confess I don't want auything
to do with him out of business hours.
It is well I don't, for you can't get him
to stir from that little 10x12 room at
? Mrs. Dole's on any pretext. Why on
earth doesn't he go round and have a
good time ?"
Ashton fairly growled In his vexa
tion. Mr. Shorman looked troubled.
He, too, had tried to make it ploasant
for Henderson. Ho had takon a strong
liking to him, and his faithfulness in
business bad won his respect.
Ho Invited him to his home, and
tried to have him become acquainted
with some young people of his own
age. but to all invitations Hondcrt-on
replied politely, but firmly, in the
negative.
Five years passed, and, impossible
a- it may seem, Henderson had not an
acquaintance in town, except those
be had mado at his boarding place and
among his business associates, and
these found hire utterly inaccessible
save with regard to business matters.
Mr. Sherman's. only son, Hoy, had
taken an unaccountable funcy to Mb
father's grave clerk. Two people
could hardly be moro unlike than they.
Hoy was a pleasure-loving youth, with
neither taste nor inclination for busi
ness of any sort. Ono would never
think of his curing to consort with
ono who scorned to have no other aim
in life than business : but for onco he
did.
" Bother it all, Henderson," ho Bald
? Impatiently one day, whon for the hun
. dredth timo his invitation to join some
frolic was refused) "you may be '?s
high and mighty as you please, but I
will havo^my way yet. I never per*
slated injSnytbingso before. The Bator
is quitAj encouraged. Ho says 1 have
dotMs%e stamina, after all. Whether
1 h#ve or not, I've taken a fancy to
* ?^Jt*^' aud ' wan* you for my friend.
fiAQ not going to give up until you
aro."
"I am your friend now," replied
Henderson, with more feeling than ho
bad ever shown before.
"Then como up to tho house to
uight, liko a good fellow."
"I can't, Sherman, truly I can't,
now, but porhaps I will sometlmo."
With that, which was moio encourage
ment than ho had over had before.
Roy was compelled to bocontont.
It was not long after this that a change
in Henderson was apparent to even
the most casual observer.
4^V'jHe grow tec years younger iu one
?R^'jt," Ashton alllrmed. "I should
yffl &_Ply know that he was the same fel
.*,w, and I actually saw him at the con
cert last night. I hopo ho won't go
and loso his bead, and bo good for
notbiug at business'."
" Ashton," said Mr. Sherman, lnugh
ioglyi " w?w there ever a time when
yon weren't worried about something ?
Horo you have been fretting because
Henderson waa so gloomy and wouldn't
go anywhere, and now that ho is
rightening up you aro fretting on
that. Do bo satisfied for onco, an.1 not
prognosticate ovil."
" Well, you know yourself, Mr. Shor
man, that folks aro very upt to go from
ono ex tri-me to the other.
"No, I don't, not when ono has a
good level head like Henderson. So
ohecr up'. our i ight hand isn't going
to fait us, take my word for it."
iwon aft^r this Hoy celebrated his
^.wenty-firat birthday, and Henderson
for the first time accepted an invita
tion to Mr. Sherman's house. Hoy's
delight was unbounded.
"You tako to It us naturally as a
duck does to water," bo whispered
oxultlngly onco during the evoning.
" What on earth baa possessed you to
make a ) ermit of yourself all these
jearsV Never mind, though; now;
you havo come out of your shell wo
will do our best to make up for lost
timo."
And so they seemed likely to do,
for Hendorson became very popular at
once, but It was notioed by all that Roy
Sherman was the only one with whom
he was reaily intimate.
Hoy, on coming of ago, hud taken
his place In hia father's establishment,
though no one appeared to think he
would ever amount to much thero.
As he particularly disliked being
tied down, hia father employed hlra
ohielly to travel for tho firm,
It was during ono of his absences,
as Hondorson was in tho office talking
with Mr. Shorman, that a stranger
rntored. The instant Henderson saw
him hia face beeamo fairly livid, and
- quickly turning, he stopped into the
ad I-dning room.
Mr Sherman could not but notice
it. and the fctran^or looked puzzled,
but, Introducing mmself, made known
thoLi>h it wal evident
Wfc|te|^yen * bile) talking of other
familiar to mo, yet i do out seem able
to place him."
" Arthur Henderson," answered Mr.
Shormau.
" Ah ! [ do not recollect anyone by
that name; a mistaken reserrMance
probably. Good-morning '."
Mr. Sherman felt deoldedly ' per
plexed. He was convinoed that it was
not a mistaken resemblance; there had
been not doubt oo Henderson's face.
He was thinking the matter over iu
a troubled way wheD Henderson came
buck.
M I should like a private conversa
tion with you at once," he Bald, and
Mr. Sherman was struck with the
change in him. Ho seemed to huve
grown twenty years older in that brlof
half hour.
*' Did tho?gentleman who was hero
speakc of me t" he queried anxiously.
"Only to say that, at first, ho
thought your face ooomed familiar, but
he could not recall any ono by your
name."
Henderson's face grow paler, if pos
sible. He tried to speak, but the
words would not eomo for several mo
ments.
" I prefer to tell you myself what ho
knows of me, though 1 had hoped and
prayed that you need never know it,"
ho said at length.
" Whon I was a young fellow, about
your sou's age, I went to the city of D.,
and entered tho employ of this gentle
man's elder brother.
"I was from tho country. My nearest
living relative, a maidon aunt, had
brought mo up in the strictest way
possible. It was hardly more than
natural that, with none to restrict me,
I should bo disposed to taste some
hitherto forbidden ploasures.
" I foil In with a rather fast sot, and
oity lifo bewitched me. I went often
to tho theatre, and 1 learned to play
cards. Unfortunately I was quite
successful at first, and my companions
deolarcd I must bave been bcrn undor
a lucky star.
n I began to think that I could make
my fortune at onoo, if only I had a
little ready money. Of course my
salary was small, and I was using it
up about as fast asl drew it, and then
$500 belonging to"*my employer fell
into my hands while ho was away.
" It wont through my mind, like a
flash, if only that was mine, I could
double It, treble it, perhaps, in one
night! Thon came the suggestion to
borrow it; what harm could there bo?
I would ropay in tho morning, and no
one need over know.
" If you have never been tempted
that way, you can know nothing about
lt. I 'borrowed' it, and lost every cent
I had that night.
'? I canuot tell you how horrified I
was. It seemed to mo that I should
lose ray reason at first, but, thank
God. 1 had manliness enough to con
fess.
"I suppose, that my employer was
kind. He took no steps against me,
but ho discharged mo with no recom
mendation.
" Of course, I could not got work in
D., so I went elsewhere. Twice they
found and recognized mo, I wanted
to be honest, I was truly sorry for my
sin: but when I carao to you I was
about discouraged. If you had turned
me away, I think I should havo given
up and gone to tho dogs.
" But you took me, and I vowod to
servo you faithfully, and allow myself
no pleasure of any sort until I had paid
principal and interest of ray indebted
ness.
"1 kept that vow. When tho la9t
cent was paid, I fancied that I was free
now to go in and out among my follow
men as one of them. But I was mis
taken ; that dreadful oloud will ovor
shndow me all my days. I cannot get
out from under it. 1 shall regret to
leave you, but now that you know all
you probably will not care to havo mo
stay."
Henderson ended with a dry sob,
more touching than a flood of tear,--..
There was silence for several moments;
thon Mr. Sherman spoke :
" I will oo as I should wp.ut anyone
to do by my son," he Said, huskily.
"Wo will go on as' we havo. This
shall bo between .us only, and I will
I endeavor to forget it. You havo been
; strickly honest since you havo been
here. I htfvu no reason to think you
will not continue to be. I wish I could
say something to holp you, Hondor
, -eon."
Mr. Sherman stretched out his hand,
Henderson looked up.
" You havo done all that anyone
could do," ho sn'd. brokenly. " I can
j not thank yon, but 1 wilT servo you
I faithfully."
The stranger came back bofore night
| fall. Ho had recalled Mr. Henderson,
he said, though ho had known him
; formerly as Henry Archer.
" Yes," Mr. Sherman said coldly,
J " I am fully acquainted with that
ftortion of Mr. Henderson's life. There
s no necessity of oponing the subject."
That was all. Everything ap
parently went on as before, onl/ Hen
derson knew that there was a dif
ference.
Mr. Sherman was kindness itself,
but ho felt that he did not quite like
i to havo him at his house as beforo,
j and Henderson began to fancy that
! he kept a closer watch over every
thing.
" Ho need .not fear," Henderson
j thought bittorly. " 1 would not take
ono penny from him."
He gavo up everything ; he grew
| thin and palo, and uged rapidly.
"If there is any such thing as a
broken hcurt l should say that follow
had ono sure," Ashton said ono day,
as ho watebfed him at work. "I'm no
baby, but I'm blest If I don't feol liko
one when he Is 'rouud now."
Mr. Sherman made no reply.
Meanwhile Roy,came and went in
I his usual way, but outsiders wore
j beginning to whisper that young Sher
I man wns sowing a plentiful crop of wild
! oats.
Hendorson watched him closely, and
I now ard then made some trivial ex
cuse, und went oft on ar trip himself.
Ho could seo that Mr. Sherman was
troubled in mind over thoso journeys.
Ho was suro that he trusted him loss
and less. It hurt him to tho quiok,
but ho said nothing.
Ono day, while Roy was away, Mr**
Sherman was looking tho mall over.
Ho opened a letter, read It, looked over
at Hendorson, took up tho letter again,
hesitated?thon spoko :
" I do not quite understand this.
Graves writes me that ho has sent a
cheque for that last consignment. I
do not remember roeelving it, do you ?"
Henderson's face was colorless, but
bo looked Mr. Sherman squarely in
tho ovo.
" I nave seen no ohequo from them,"
he said. And Mr. Sherman wished
vaguely that he had not spoken.
Still, where was the mls-or;g cheque?
Henderson left town that night on
one of his mysterious journeys. He
took the express for J., went at once
to one Of the bent hotels, and Inquired
for Mr. Royal Sherman.
Yes, he wan registered'there, but
was out now. Henderson took a room,
and then went out himself.
He wont from ono place to another,
apparently knowing from past experi
ence where to go, but It was after
midnight beforo he found tho object of
his search In a gambling saloon.
"Comewit,b. me, Roy, I havo some
thing to toll /you," he said.
Roy, aftey one look at Henderson's
^Anytlftng^ wrong at homo?" he
nun, Koy notiolug for tho first time
I that big companion watt drenched with
j the rain, but partly from a sense of
dread, and partly Irom vexation he
made no o xnrmm.
I Silently tbey made their way to the
, hotvl, to tbo loom II ml. i.-'Ii had
takeu. Thi:u Hoy *jx>kc.
1 should Hau to know bow much
loDger you uro going to keep this up v ' i
bo said. 111 aiu HOout tired of your
dogging my stops."
"I shall keep.it up until I have;
Huved you." was tboroply. "Oil, Roy, I
think of your father, think of your j
God. Think of your life bofore you, j
and all its possibilities. Tbak what
you can make it, and stop before it is
too lato! I v?us once just wboro you
are now. I thought I could make my
fortuno without having to drudgo fur
it. I sinned?juot as you are tempted
to sin now?aud it has ruined my life.
I have repented, ob, so bitterly ! I
havo done all in my power to mako
restitution, but I cannot removo tho
stain. My ein follows me. and will
follow mo to my grave. Rut if I can
savo you I will die content. Oh, Roy,
I havo loved you so ! lie warned by j
mo. Remember, you oan repent, but'
you can never undo a sin, nevor. For 1
your father's sako, your mother's your
God's, f pray you atop whore you aro I"
All tho impatiunco, recklessness and
hardness died out of Roy's face as Hen
derson spoke. Ho dropped hia head
on the table as ho endod, and sobbed
likoaohild.
" I don't know what mado me do it,
Henderson. I havo been wretched
evor since I took that cbcquo. i don't
know how 1 got to this. I had lost
heavily. I thought luck would turn.
But, God helping mo, 1 will be true as
steel the rest of my days !"
" He will help you, aud I shall die
happy," said Henderson.
Tho exposure and strain had been
too much for Henderson. Before
morning ho was dangerously 111, and two
days later ho died.
Mr. Sherman and Roy wore both
I with him.
?? You wero good to me, and I've
tried to bo faithful," Henderson said to
Mr. Sherman.
" You have boon moro than faithful
?you shall bo like my own son honco
forth," was tho reply, " I can noyor
repav you for what you hftvo dono for
Roy."
You havo bavod me. With God's
blessing, 1 shall never fqrget your
lesson, and I will try to help others
who' uro tempted as you have helped
me," .vhlspered Roy, just at tho last.
HemWson smiled gratefully, turned
his face; to the wall and slept'. His
work wa^ ended.

HK MAS N WITH T1M.MAN.
Governor Evans on tho Coming State
Convention?Ho Thinks Tlllman
Should bo Nominated for Presi
dent. V
Columbia State.
Governor Evans has returned to tho
city from New York aud Washington,
whore he has boon for tho pusc week
on oflloial hus loess. . Ho was in good
health and spirits and talked plot^sant
ly to a repro8ontatlvo of Tho State on
politics, Stato and national. On tho
table in his library lay a handsome
gold-headed walkingcane, with ,l John
Gary Evans, April 24. 1896," engraved
thereon. It was presented by an aO
mirer of the governor.
When asked how ho was pleased
with tho actions of the different coun
ty i (inventions, which were held
on Monday, he answered that be was
more than satisfied with the result.
When tho State convention met on tbo
20th lost., he said, Tillman would be
present with a strong majority of the
delegates thinking as bo does, and
ready to aot with him. There was no
doubt in bis mind about Tillman br/ing
sent at the head of the delegation from
this Stato to Chicago. Tho delegates
would probably go uningfructed. but
witb a Urm dotorminatUm to nominate
a man as oandidato fer President who
stood for silver at TO to 1.
As to bolting, ho hardly thought tho
delegation would find it necessary, for
there, w'ould be a majority at the Chi
cago convontion holding tUo same
views as they did on the monetary
question.
Tho governor was particularly grati
fied with tho results in Charleston,
Greenville and Laurens. One-half of
the Charleston delegation, he said,
were stalwart administration men, who
could bo rolled on. In Lauren* Irby
barely got In by che 14 Anti delegates
In the convontion supporting him. Ho
would come to Columbia, but us a mem
bor of the State convention, would, to
use a slang expression, " not cut any
ice."
Trby's inconsistency is being brought
out forcibly," ho thinks, for last year
tho Senator would not bear of a divis
ion of delegates with the Autis, while
now it looks as if ho is trying bard to
got their support since ho is about to
lone his seat in the Senate.
Tho Governor is of tho opinion that
ho is the man who is about to unseat
Irby in the Senate. Everything Is
moving smoothly to that end, so he
says, aud bo entertains no fours of the
result.
When Greenville was mentlonod,
Governor Evans could not repress a
smllo. "Yes," ho said. "Gray and
Donaldson havo boon given back seats."
He thought that tho fight In Greon
ville had been made on vory much tbo
same line as it will bo for tho Sonate,
and if it onds tho sarao way ho will
carry tho county.
While in Washington, the Governor
said he had talked with mauy loading
mon from all over tho United States.
Almost every man thought Tillman
the logical candidate to nominate on a
froo sliver platform. To win the fight
for tho Democratic, party and silver,
against McKinley, it will take a man
who can arouse tho enthusiasm of the
pooplo in tho West. No half-hearted
man would stand any showing, the
times requiring a man of Til) man's
magnetism.
It Is marvolous, he Bays, to noto tho
number of letters Tillman receives
from ull over the country, telling him
how much ho is, admired. They are
not conQned to the West, but come
from Now York and other Extern
States.
Tillman was not a candidato for the
Presidential nomination, but if the
party demanded his services ho would
of course make the fight for silver.
Tillman's name would, almost with
out doubt, tho Governor < said, bo pre
sented to tho Ohioago convention, and
if it wore he would probably roeolvo
tho nomination.
As for Tillman not ranking well in
Washington, that was all nonsense.
He was regarded by other Sonators t?s
a vory able man, and was listened lo
with great attention whenever he
spoke.
In conclusion, tho Governor said :
"Tillman's pitohfork will be the em
blem of tho victorious farmers of tho
South and West and there is promise
of llvoly times ahoad. Tillman stinds
before the nation now as he stood In
South Carolina in 1800 and I look for
the same result."
?It is difficult for the gold mon to
be consistent, fn ooj breath thoy
arguo that the produotlonof .diver ha*
so far surpassed the production of gold
as to make the value of silver only
one half that of gold, and then in t he
very next thoy publish statistics to
show tho tremendous, lncroaso In the
output of gold?an increase which
they deolare to be so great as to leave
no further use for si!vor, and to supply
enough gold for all monetary pur
toaes.

Tho olty is in the hand* of over :i,l'00 {
v.siting Baptists, present as delegates
and spoetator8 at the sessions of the |
Southern Baptist Convention. Chat-1
tanooga feels the mighty impulse that
a great religion < gathering imparts to

is theirs. Hotels and hotel c >rrid >ra

of oltizons. The oonvontion's officers
aro all q-iartorotl at tho Southoru Ho
tel, whioh is tho o. ntro of interest.
The last of tl.o auxiliary bodies that
follow tho lead of tho big body finished
its sessions today. At a largely at
tended meeting of tho trustees 01 the
Baptist Thoologioal seminary looattd
at Louisville, Jothua levering a mi!
Uouairo coffoo doaler of Baltimore and
president of tho board, made tho semi
nary a gift of $10,000 for a gymnasium
to be erected at onco.
Dr. J. B Oranfill,of Texas, vice presi
dential candidate on the Prohibition
ticket in 1892, presided over the ses
sion of the Baptist editorial astciatlon,
at which a number of loarned aud lu
I teresting papers wore presented. The
most trouchant disuusslon of any toplo
! was upon a paper on " Baptist Aea
I demies" by F. W. lioatwrght, the
i young prosidunt of IVohmoUd college.
Tho element of discord predicted at
? the seesions of the Baptist Young
People's Union, an auxiliary of the
convention, by reason of violent op
position in the denomination to the
existence of a Southern union apart
from the Young People's Union of
i America, did not. materlali/.e, opposi
I tlon to the union coming from cburchos,
I and not from members of the auxiliary,
j Representatives from tbo department
of tbo green, tho Southern wing of tho
international union, were present, but
bel?g visitors took no.part in tho .pro
ceedings.
The old corps of officers was eleeted
by the union, to wit: L. O. Dawson
of Tuscaloosa, Ala.', president; W. W.
Galnes of Atlanta, secretary : P. II.
Meli of Auburn, Ala., first vlco presi
dent, and C. L< Laws of Baltimore,
Bccond vice nresideot.
Mr. Laws "resigned, however, giving
as a reason that his Stato, Maryland,
did not sympathize with tho Southern
union movement, but would stay under
the international banner.
Birmingham was soleoted as head
quarters for tho society and a board of
seven local managers was appointed.
J. W. Buil.v. chairman of the com
mittee to select a special board of
managers to co-ope rate with the local
board, reported in favor of ono mem
ber from each State in tho convention
and a general board of seven named
from Alabama.
Tho Southern Baptist Convention,
the groat contro of interest, met at
10 o'clock this morning in tho First
Baptist church. Amid an impressive
silence, President Jonathan Baralson,
associate justice of the supremo court
of Alabama, oponed tho session. Dr.
S. H. Ford of St. Louis Invoked the
Divine blessing on tho work of the
body. The roll call showed 707 ac
?redited delegates present out of a
possible 1,422 entitled to seats.
Judgo Jonathan Baralson of Alabama
was re-elected president without a
dissenting voice and Dr. Lansiug Bur -
rows of Augusta, Ga., and Rev. O. F.
Grogory of Baltimore wero elected
aguinns secretaries. The presid. nt ap
pointed Dr. H. H. Harris of Louisville
and the two secretaries as a committoe
on order of business. Ex-Govornor J.|P.
Eagle of Arkansas, Dr. W. VV. Dan
drum of Virginia, J. H. Kilpatrick of
Georgia, Dr. T. S. Dunawayof Virginia
und W. W. Dodge of Texas wero put
in nomination for vico president-, of
whom there are four. While the tel
lers wore taking tho ballot Mayor Geo.
W. OohB was introduced aud delivered
tho address of welcome on behalf of the
city. Dr. R B, Garrott, pastor of the
First Baptist church, welcomed the
convention in the name of the Baptists
of Chattanooga. An eloquent re
sponse to tho words of welcome was
made by Br. W. W. Landrum of Vir
ginia. .
On the opening of the afternoon
session, the announcement of tho bal
lot showed that the following wero
elected vine presidents of the body:
Joshua Levering of Baltimore, Prof.
H. F. Korfoot of Louisville, Dr. S. H.
Ford of St. L'>uie, and ex*Oovernor W.
J. Northen of Georgia. The reports of
tho several hoards were then submitted
in turn. Treasurer John C. Williams
of the foreign mission board, loouted iu
U<chmend, reported a deficit at the
close of tho fl.-cal year ending May 1
18U6, of $20.002. Receipts for the year
were $402,056, and expenditures $105,
118. Tho past year hus been a very
hard one for all missions. Tho board
has a serious financial problem to
meet, which means for the present a
standing still in the field work. 'The
roport of tho homo mission hoard also
shows a deficit of about $8,000. Mis
sion work in Cuba will not be re
sumed until the closo of the rebellion,
I while many of tho convention feel that
B iptUt missions havo small hopes of
success in the island under Spanish
rule for yoars to come. Over $86,000
has been expended by the home mis
sion board In building houses of wor
ship ' the increase In mission building
more than oil', t-ting tho deficiency in
this board's funds.
The fraternal delegates present were
asked to address the convention, ami
several responded. The report of the
Sunday school board was submitted by
Secretary J. M. Frost of Nashville and
showed a flourishing condit on of that
arm of the service with money in th<

Grandpa's Way.
My grandpa is the strangest man !
Of course 1 love him dearly ;
But really it does seem to mo
He looks at things so queerly I
He always thinks that ever}' day
Is right, no matter whether
It rains or snows, or shines or blows,
Or what the Kind of weather.
When outdoor fun is ruined by
A heavy shower provoking.
He pats my head and says: "Jfou sco,
Tue dry earth needs a soaking."
And when I think the day too warm
For any kind of pleasure,
He says : "The corn has grown an inch?
I see without a measure."
And when I fret because the wind
Has set my tilings all whirling,
He looks at me and says : "Tut! tut!
This close air needs* a stirring !"
He savs when d ifts are piling high,
And fence-posts scarcely peeping:
"How warm beneath their blanket white
The little tlowers arc keeping !''
Sometimes I think, when on his face
His sweet smile shines so clearly,
It would he nice if every one
Could see things just as queerly;
? The Children's Friend.

Competition la Diplomacy.
In 1891 it was decided that the ap
pointments in the British foreign office
should bo interchangeable with attache ?
ships in the diplomatic service, and the
entrance examinations were then mado
the same. The limits of age are 19 and
96, and the nomination rests with the
foreign secretary. The schein? cf exami
nation embraces French, German, Span
ish, Portuguese, Russian, Latin and tho
history of Europe. In 1899 slierthand
was added by direction of Lord Rose- '
bery, then foreign secretary. The exami- ?
nation in modern languages is of a very
searching character. Vacancies are few 1
?about four annually?and an exami
nation fee of ?0 is demanded. Attaches
receivo no salary until they servo two
years; then they tako tho place of third
secretaries, with a salary of ?160. Sec
ond secretaries receive ?800 to ?500,
whilo commercial attaches get ? 1,000
to ?1,800.
Tho prospcots of clerks are excellent,
for tho diplomatic service comprises i:J2
members, and ?1,000 is by no means an
uncommon salary. There are 20 minis
ters with salaries running from ?1,200
to ?0,000, whilo thoso of embossad'ira
vary from ?5,600 to ?9,000 a year. It is
noteworthy that the British enibussadors
now at Washington and Constantinople
respectively commenced their careers as
junior clerks In tho foreign office.?
