In the full How of his , triumphant argument Graeme turned to him with sudden seriousness. I "Look here, father. I was born a Calvlnist, and I can't see how any one with a level head can hold anything else than that the Almighty has some Idea as to how be wants to run his uni verse, and he means to carry out his idea and is carrying it out But what : would you do in a case like this?" Then he told the story of poor Billy Breen, his fight and his defeat. I "Would you preach election to that chap?" The mother's eyes were shining with ,, tears. i Tbe old gentleman blew his nose like 1 a trumpet and then said gravely: i "No, my boy. tou don't feed babes with meat" But what came to him?" I ; Then Graeme asked me to finish tbe tale. After I had finished the story of Billy's finals triumph and of Craig' part In it they sat long silent till the ' minister, clearing bis throat hard and blowing his nose more like a trumpet than ever, said, with great emphasis: "Thnnk God for such a man In such a place! I wish there were more of us like him." "I should like to see you out there, sir," said Graeme admiringly. "You'd get them, but you wouldn't have time for election. "Yes, yes," said hlB, father warmly; "I should love to have a chance just to preach election to those poor lads. Would I were twenty years younger!" "It Is worth a man's life," said Graeme- earnestly. . His younger brother turned his face eagerly toward tbe mother. For an swer she slipped her band Into his and aid softly, while ber eyes shone like tars: , "Some day. Jack, perhaps. God knows." But Jack only looked steadily at her. tinning a little and patting her band. "You'd shine there, mother," said Graeme, smiling upon ber. "You'd bet ter come with me." . She started and said faintly: "With you?" It was the first bint he had given of his purpose. "You are going back?" "What as a mlwiotinry?" said Jack. "Not to preach. Jack-Tin not ortho dox enough," loo!:!n at his father and haklng b! lipnil- "lint to build rail roads and loud a bund to some poor chap if I can." "Could you nut find work" nearer home, my boy?" asked the father. "There Is plenty of both kinds near us here mnely." "Lots of work, but not mine, I fear," answered Graeme, keeping bis eyes away from his mother's face. "A man must do bis own work." His voice was quiet and resolute, and, glancing at the beautiful face at th tod of the table, I saw In tbe pale lips, and yearning eyes that tbe mother ottering up ber Brstoorn, tnai i dent sacrifice.,. But not ail the agony Of sacrifice cbuld wring from her en trety ,.or- complaint in the bearing of her sons. That was for otner ears ana for tbe silent hours of the.ulght. And next morninc. when she came down to meet us, her face was wan and weary, but It wore the peawof victory and a glory not of earth. ITer greeting was full of dignity, sweet and gentle, but when she came to Graeme sne ungerea over bun and kissed him twice, and that was all that airy of us ever saw of that sore fight At the end of the week I took leave of them and last of all of tbe mother. She hesitated Just a moment, then suddenly put bar bands upon niyahoul ders and kissed sae, saying softr: "You are bis friend. You wM some times come to me?" "Gladly, rf I may," I bastened to an swerlor tto sweet, brave face was toatnucb to Aoarr and till sue len us foe tbaA.-wertd of which she was a paftf "kept my word, to my own great and lasting good.

"If not. don't you help them down, and anyway you can't be too careful. But don't mind me. I nui quit of the whole business from this out." So I ventured wines, for the last time, as It happened.' ' We were a quaint corablnntlon-old "Beetles," whose nickname was pro phetic of bis future fame as a bugman, as the fellows lrrevereutly said; "Stum py" Smith, a demon bowler; "Polly" Lindsay, slow as ever and as sure as when be held tbe halfback line with Graeme and used to make my heart stand still at bis cool deliberation. But he wns never known to fumble or funk, and somehow be always got us out safe enough. Then there were Rattray "Rat" for short who. from a swell, had developed Into a cynic with a sneer, awfully clever and a good enough fellow at heart; little "Wig" Martin, the sharpest quarter ever Been, and Barney Lundy, center scrimmage. wnose terrific roar and rush had often struck terror to the enemy's heurt and wuo was lirnemes slave, sucn was the party. As the supper went on my fears be gan to vanish, for If Graeme did not roar he did the next best thing ate and talked quite up to his old form. Now we played our matches over again, bit terly lamenting the "Ifs" that had lost us the championships and wildly ap proving tbe tackles that bad saved and the runs that bad ninde tbe varsity crowd go mad with delight and had won for ns, and as their names came up In talk we learned bow life had gone with those who bad been our comrades of ten years ago. Some suc cess uaa nrtea to nign places, some failure bad left upon the rocks, and few lay In their graves. But as the evening wore on I began to wish that I had left out tbe wines. for the men began to drop an occasion al oath, though I had let them know during the summer that Graeme was not the man he bad been. But Graeme smoked and talked and heeded not till Rattray swore by that name most sa cred of all ever borne by man. Then Graeme opened upon blm In a cool, Blow way: "What an awful fool a man Is to damn things as you do, Rat! Things are not damned. It Is men who are, and that is too bad to be talked mucb about. But when a man flings out of his foul mouth tbe name of Jesus Christ" here he lowered his voice "It's a shame; It's more It's n crime." There was dead silence. Then Rat tray replied: "I suppose you're right enough. It Is bad form. But crime Is rather strong, t think." "Not if you consider who It Is," said Graeme, with emphasis. "Oh, come now!" broke In Beetles. "Religion is all right It is a good thing and, I believe, a necessary thing for the race. But no one takes serious ly any longer the Christ myth.' "What about your mother. Beetles?" put in Wig Martin. Beetles consigned him to tbe pit and was silent, for his father was an Epis copal clergyman and his mother a saintly woman. "I fooled with that for some time, Beetles, but it won't do. You can't build a religion that will take the dev il out of a man on a myth. That won't do the trick. I don't want to argue about It, but I am quite convinced the myth theory Is not reasonable, and, be sides, it won't work." . "Will the other work?" asked Rat tray, with a sneer. "Sure," said Graeme. "I've seen It." "Where?" challenged Rattray. "I haven't seen much of it." "Yes, you have, Battray; you know you have," said WJg again. But Battray Ignored nun. "Ill tell you, boys," said Graeme. 1 waBt you to know anyway why I believe what I do." Then be told them the story of old man Nelson, from the old coast days, before I knew him, to the end. lie told the story well. Tbe stern fight and the victory of the. life and the self sacrifice and the pathos of tbe death appealed to these men, who loved fight and could understand sacrince. "That's why I believe in Jesus Christ, and that's why I think It a crime to fllnir his name about" "I wish to heaven I could say that" aald Beetles. "Keep wishing hard enough, and It will come to you, said uraeme. "Look here, old chap." said Battray. Tnn'H oulte rlebt about this. I'm wtlllnv to own ud. Wig Is correct few at least of that stamp, but most of those who go to for that sort of thine are not mucb account. "Par ten rears. Battray." said Graeme in m dnwnrlirht matter of fact way, "you and I have tried this sort of thing," tapping a bottle," "snd we got out of It all there Is to be got paid well for it too, and, faugh, you know It's not good enough, and the more you go In for It the more you curie your self. So I have quit this, and I am goiag in for the other. "What? Ooinc In for preaching?" "Not mucb railroading, money In It -and lending a hand to fellows on ine rocks.'

Put ma down,- saw: mum n m Then I took up the word, for there rose before me tbe scene in tbe league saloon, mid 1 saw tho beautiful face with the deep, shilling eyes, and I was speaking for ber ngalu. I told them of Craig and his fight for these men's lives. I told them, too, ofjiow I had been too Indolent to begin. "But" I said, "I am going this far from tonight" And I swept the bottles into tbe cham pagne tub. "I say," said Polly Lindsay, coming up In bis old style, slow, but sure, "let's all go In, say, for five years." And so we did. We didn't sign any thing, but every man shook bands With Graeme. And as I told Craig about this a year later, when he was on bis way back from bis old land trip to join Graeme in tbe mountains, be threw up bis bead in the old way and said: "It waa well done. It must have been worth see-, lng. Old man Nelson's work is not done yet Tell me again." And he made me go over the whole scene, with all the details put in. But when I told Mrs. Mavor after two years had gone she only ald, "Old things are passed away; all things are become new," but tbe light glowed In her eyes till I could not see their color. But all that too. Is another story. I TO BE COlfl-TRCKD. THE OLDEST MONASTERY. R Dates Bsek to the Fifth Century and Is Most Inaoossslble. The oldest monastery in the world is Maxsuba, a fortress that clingB to the top and sides of a rocky cliff at the end of Eedron valley, near the Dead sea. It's the weirdest place that man ever happened on, with only the cri-w of the jackal and the call of the night birds to break the fright ful stillness that broods over the land. It is a destroyed stronghold of the crusaders and the tomb of nomad chieftain, Sheik Messiaf. In the early part of the fifth cen tury the Sabaites took possession of it. This was an order of monks of which San Sabas was the superior. The larger part of the monastery was built by them. Their numbers finally so increased that the mon eatery would not hold them all, and 10,000 took np their abode in rock caves in the mountain opposite. Four thousand remained in the monastery proper. In the seventh century the Persian hordes attack ed and plundered them. After that a castlelike tower was built to serve as a defense. Later another tower was added to it,' and, strange to relate, this last was a monument to a woman b love, It was built by the Empress Eu- dozia, that she might dwell in it and so bo near to tutbymius, monk with whom she had fallen in love because he represented, as she declared, her ideal of manhood. Euthymius, however, wss noted for his sanctity, and he would not violate his vow. He refused to see the lady, and he even fled from her to the Moabite desert, beyond the Jordan. Finally the empress left her post never to return, and the tower was annexed as a part of the monastery. It is now used as a lookout, and a watchman is constantly stationed there. When a visitor knocks and knocks repeatedly, he at last opens a small window in tbe tower ana looks out to demand the letter of introduction from tho Greek patn arch of Jerusalem; without which none is ever permitted to enter. When once inside, visitors are practically prisoners, for the iron bolts of the great door are quickly slipped in place, and there is no oth er exit, within s pavea counyara is a small Roman chapel, contain ing San Sabas' tomb. An outer veranda in the courtyard leads to the Church of St. Nicholas, one oi the oldest in Palestine. Just Walt "Hello, Charley I I haven't seen yon since I was married!" said newly married man to a friend he chanced to meet down on Main street "No." replied the friend. Ton have been so devoted to home of lata that no one has seen you." "Yea. I don't hang around as 1 nsad to." "You are just like I was," said the other, who had been married for some years. "Just found the socie ty of the wife enough, eh V "Yes. We do not tire of each other." "Jnat like I waa. I suDDOse vou think it will never change, eh ? Just always will be the same, I suppose. "I don't think I will change." "Just like I was. I suppose she has not asked you for a fifty dollar ait when yon only had $23 the day before pay day." "No, of course not" "Yon Just waitt" And he turned on his heel and walked off down the streets-Salt Lake Herald. A Merciful Judas. To be sentenced to imprisonment for tho term of one's natural life is hard enough, but to be consigned to a dunseon cell for a couple of thou sand years is indeed harrowing. Yet foreign judges not infrequently im pose sentences of several centuries without It being considered any thing remarkable. A young man wu arrested in Vi enna a couple of years ago who trpon hfe own showing should have been sentenced to tfiOO years' imprison ment A total of 400 charges was brought against him. and no was oonncted and sentenced on all of them. Bat tho judge wu a merci ful man, and in passing sentence ho threw off a thousand years tn eoo cideratjo of tho man's yoath. i. i. i THE TEXA8 FEVER. lne Trne Inffl r "r. Too Much to Hope For. ILUajgW i1HlJ 1 OaadlHaaa That Pvodaee It aad Bow to Malta Cattle loaanaae. Dr. Cary of the Alabama station, In tbe summary of bulletin Na 110 upon Texas fever, says: An animal sick with Texas fever can not Infest or transmit the disease to healthy cattle. The only known means by which the micro parasite that cans- es Texss fever can be transmitted from diseased cattle to healthy ones is through two generations of the south ern cattle tick. Tick free rattle never have Texas fever u long u they are tick free. Cattle with Texas fever have or have had ticks upon them. All cattle must acquire Immunity after birth by having one or more attacks of Texas fever. Immunity to Texas fever la not Inher ited. Southern bred cattle have Texas fever when very young (sucking calves) and are usually but slightly affected by It Tbe older tbe animal tbe more se vere the fever; tbe older tbe animal tbe greater tbe mortality. All cattle north of tbe government quarantine line are susceptible to Tex as fever, as are all southern bred cattle raised on tick free farms and tick free town lots. Immune cattlo will lose their Immunity If kept free of ticks for two or more years. In bot weather Texas fever la usually more acute and fatal than In cool seasons. Tbe best time to bring northern bred or foreign bred cattle Into Alabama Is between Nov. 1 and March 1. It Is safer to bring young sucking calves Into Ala bama for acclimation than cattle over a year old. Sucking calves (two to four months old) can be shipped Into the south by express, fed milk from a southern bred and Immune cow and be made immune by natural tick Inoculations, with little danger of loss. One or two Inoculations with de- Obrlnated blood from an Immune ani mal will produce a relatively safe Im munity to Texas fever. Tbe best age for inoculating with deflbrinated blood is a year or less. The best time Is be tween Oct 30 and March 1. From SO to 90 per cent of northern bred or susceptible cattle die with Tex as fever when turned Into tick infested pastures. Less than 10 per cent are lost when made immune by tbe de flbrinated blood Inoculation method. Wkta ta Water Ho am. Always water bogs before feeding and never afterward. If this Is prac ticed and tbe animals are given ear corn on a feeding floor, fourteen pounds of corn will produce two pounds of gain. In other words, every bushel of corn ought to produce ten pounds of pork. If this Is not being accomplish ed, something Is wrong, says John Cownle. I bought a flock of thirty-seven goats, common ones, not Angoras, writes W. H. Winters of Arkansas to Wool Mar kets and Sheep. I must confess that I was somewhat prejudiced against them, but after an experience of eight months with them I find them to be the most pleasant and easily handled animals that I ever owned.

They soon take up with their homo and will come up to tbe bouse or barn two or three times a day, and every time It rains tbey lose no time set ting- home to shelter, while a sheep will remain out In tbe rain all day. The goats live and fatten on what other stock will nor eat They nve principally on leaves, weeds and briers. Tbey will more than pay their .way in clearing brush land, weeds and briers. Green briers are especially nao tn this country. Goats are very prolif ic, osoally bringing twins' and often triplets. Their flesh Is said to resemt Wo venison In taste.

It utiords some people a great pleasure to beat the newspaper. Everybody wants something from the paper, but few are willing to give anything in return. If the edi tor wants pay for his hard work a kick comes. People are always ready to take the newspaper man's money, but never in a humor to pay the newspaper man any money; when paid it is done in a way to make him feel like he had just robbed a henroost. We heard a man say not long ago that he had read an Americus newspaper three years and had not paid a cent on it. He actually bragged about it. We would not trUHt such a creature as far as you could throw a bull by the tail. It would be difficult to point out an instance where a town has grown into importance that its growth cannot be attributed tn the work of the newspaper. The news paper, above all else in a town, should receive the hearty support of the town people. As a rule if a town has a poor paper it is because the people and business men do not give it the support it should have. 10 speaic ugnuy oi your nome paper is one. of the most unworthy actB that one can be guilty of, for when you do so you condemn your sell because it is evidence that you do not give it your support Would you have a newspaper that you can be proud of? Then give it your support. You are often urged to speak well of your town and sing its praises, wherever you go; a far bet ter thing to do is to stand behind your newspapers and they will do the rest. He Had Bmelled Fish Scrap. Wilmington Star. To those who have had a whiff of the fish factories down the river, following language of a Savannah man in speaking of the ordors will be found most expressive : "I have smelled pole cats and assa foetida , I have smelled and scented scents, but the outsmellingest smell in its previous power, its diffusive character, is the odor that comes from fish scrap. It's as smothering as a horse blanket, as gummy as molas ses and as omnipresent as the Eng lish sparrow." Big Demand for Small Coins. Hew York Special to Baltimore Peet. Dimes, nickels and cents for Christmas shopping are now in greater demand in the Treasury De partment that they have ever before been at this time of the year. One department store has placed an or der with tbe sub-Treasury here for $25,000 in cents, to be delivered as required between now and Christ mas. This calls for 2,500,000 one cent coins. . One reason lor the demand is found in the miniature safes which some banks are supplying to families for deposits of small coins. Some years sgo a dime savings bank that contained 5 in dimes and could not be opened until filled took some mil lions of dollars in dimes from the Treunry.

We suppose it's too much to hope for, but it's a pity that the Legisla ture which will meet in Raleigh in January cannot be brave enough to pass a good stiff dog law. Experts say tnat the mountain lands oi western North Carolina are excel lently adapted to sheep raising, and it is the wonder of many who are unacquainted with local conditions that farmers and stock-raisers in that section do not enter this line on a more extensive scale, it we had a dog law sheep culture here would undoubtedly be profitable, but until there is a little better pro tection from dogs than the country now affords we cannot expect the industry to thrive. As long as the sheep-raiser finds hia flocks subject to periodical visits from vicious dogs and the profit of years some times wiped out by them in a night, we need not look for any advance in sheep culture in North Carolina. To improve the appetite and strengthen the digestion, try a few doses of Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver Tablets. Mr. J. H.
