"Yes," said u well known diver
recently, in a quiet voice, "one of
ilie most awful sights I have ever
seen was witnessed recently; il
was a steamer sunk by a subma
rine. When I roi down lo her,
the people in the saloon looked ex
actly as il they were alive- All
had their eyes open -the women
had piteotis expressions on their !
faces; some had actually stuffed
handkerchiefs in their mouths to!
try to prevent suffocation and
when the saloon door was opened
they all seemed to dance toward
nie. I signaled to (he surface, and
as I moved backward they also
moved, until it was possible to
lake them oft'one by one. Btttihe
thing that seemed lo me the most
striking of all was tins: The man
at the wheel, who had been a mate
of mine in limes past, had gone
down with Ins ship, and when I
looked there he was still, with both
hands on ihe wheel, his face rigid
and set, looking as though he was
a figure cast in bronze. When I
tried to move his hand from
the wheels to take him up, I found
it impossible; they were clinched
beyond my strength.
I felt queer, signaled 'Up,' and a
few moments later my helmet was
unscrewed and they were gently
sponging the blood from my face
and nostrils."

This is the age of the trained
man.
The men who succeed are the
men of one idea of which they
make a hobby.
Goethe said, "Wherever thou
art, be all there."
The best way to prevent a gun
from scattering is to put in a single
shot, liven specialists today have
their specialty.
It does not pay to prevent a gun
from scattering is to put in a single
shot.
The successful worker today is
he who singles out from a vast
number of possible employments
some specialty, aiid to that devotes
himself thoroughly.
The specialist does not have to
look for a job. The job is looking
for him.
America is a poor country for
the average man.
Everything is crowded downstairs.

He was a very small boy. Paddy

the news. But il had to he, and
when he came home trom school
she told him simply:
"Paddy has been run over and
killed."
I le took it very quietly, finished
his dinner with appetite and spirits
unimpaired. All day il was the
same. But five minutes after he
had gone up to bed there echoed
through the house a shrill and sud

rushed upstairs with solicitude and
sympathy.
"Nurse says," he sobbed, "that
Paddy has been run over and kill

"No, but - but I didn't know

HOW WE SEE OUR MASTER.
BY J. W. TU.OHMAN, Wlil.DON, N. C
W'e set' 1 lim in the sunlight,
We see I lim in the skies.
In the beautiful blue of Heaven,
He is oft before our eyes.
We see Him in the moonlight,
W'e see Him in the stars,
His beauty shines in "Venus,"
lie's often seen in "Mars."
We see 1 lim in the forest
Amongst the noble trees,
We see Him in the Mowers,
We feel Him in the breee.
He makes Himself so plain to us
This truth we can't deny
His very presence feeling,
When we in prayer draw nigh.
We bless this God of ours,
Who so much comfort gives
To every living creature
That through Him gladly lives.
We sec Him in the brooklet
In the glad, sweet days of Spring,
When everything innaiure
1'roclaims Him "Lord and King."
We see Him in the raging siorm,
In the forked lightning's Hash,
We hear His voice of warning
In the pealing thunder crash.
Away wnh you, bold skeptic !
When oceans roar resounds,
His power to us assuring
A strength that knows no hounds !

Then I decided to black the stove

it who should call bin Mrs. De

"1 just put on some more black

and told her I wasn't in. And off
she went, saying she would call

At a certain church in a Jersey
town it is the invariable custom of
the clergyman to kiss the bride :
after the ceremony. A young wo- j
man who was about to be married j
in this church did not relish ;
the prospect and instructed her j
prospective husband 10 tell the j
clergyman thai she did not wish j
him to kiss her. The bridegroom
obeyed the instructions given. I
"W ell, Harry," said the young
woman when he appeared, "did
you tell the minister that I did not
wish him to kiss me ?"
"Yes."
"And whai did he say?"
"He said that, in that case, he
would charge only the usual lee."
