, , Hushed in an awful quiet was the
big house, for its mistress lay nick
unto death. Strange that she should
bo summoned when there were oth
ers, sorrow marked. and stricken in
years, who waited for the call and
prayed it might come quickly, yet
waited and prayed in vain! There
were others, too, not old or gray
before their time, who might have
slipped away into the unknown al
most unnoticed, while this woman
had so many ties to hind her to earth
-her husband, her child, her rela
tions, her legion of friends.
It was hard she should be called
away so early from the rich banquet
that lay spread before her.
It Yet the angel of death was ex
pected. His emissaries had arrived
and told of his approach, which may
not be stayed nay, nor even long
delayed.
' The doctor, who knew too well
the signs of these fateful envoys,
shook his head gravely in reply to
the anxious queries of those who
loved her best her sisters, her
mother, her husband but he gave
no gleam of hope, for she lay in a
deadly lethargy from which it had
been impossible to rouse her. In
vain her mother spoke to her as she
had done in days long gone by, when
she was yet a child. In vain her
husband stood by her side and took
her hand and called her by every
endearment she knew so well. In
vain her child clutched her breast
and cried for her mother to look at
her and talk to her again.
- Surely if it were possible to bring
her back from the edge of the grave
these dear ones could do it. But
there she lay, stonily impassive, with
her great eyes staring into space,
cold and unheeding as the sphinx.
She gave no sign of life, and the
hours fraught with hope sped slowly
on, and each one registered a step
nearer the grave.
One by one they withdrew from
the chamber of death, the husband
being the last to obey the doctor's
orders, and now none was left in the
room but the physician and the
nurse her old servant, the one up
on whose knee she had climbed twen
ty years and more ago.
How slowly the hours passed for
the watchers, and yet surely they
Eassed too quickly I Just so many
undred more vibrations of the pen
dulum, just a few strikings of the
hour, and all would be over for her,
so . lichly endowed with all that
should make life worth living.
- The doctor never left her side.
He sat there with his keen, observ
ant eye fixed upon her, ready to note
any change, but there she lay im
nassive. 'and the watcher could
scarcely see that she breathed.
Her beauty seemed even more per
fect now than he had thought it.
Absolutely faultless was tne cms
plinr of those clear cut features.
Her dark hair waved loosely around
her Grecian brow and trailed across
her shoulders, a fit setting lor tne
marvelous whiteness of her face.
Thn oreat violet eves her chief
glory were wide open, staring with
terrible fitity into nothingness, 01
was it into the something beyond?
Her Hds had lost their mid coior,
but this was scarcely a fault; her
hands were outside the coverlet,
white marble faintly marked with
blue, her wedding ring the one dis
cordant note.
Vnr lnnff there had been no sound
in the room save the crackling of the

The nurse's eyes were fixed on the
fire. She seemed to be seeking guid
ance from the flames. At last her
courage failed her, and in distress
she cried; . ,
"Oh, heaven! What shall I do?
I dare not." . ' -
The doctor moved up to her. ,
- "Nurse," said he, "one thing yro
must do. You must tell me what
you know. If you do not, your life
will be made hideous and unbearable
by the memory of tonight Cannot
you trust me? You know she looks
upon me as a friend. The secret, if
secret there be, is as safe with me as
with you. You must tell me. What
did she mean by Linley? Is it a
man's name?".
"Yes."
The doctor glanced involuntarily
at the bed. No, she could not hear;
he need not have lowered his voice.
"Her lover?"
"Yes."
The clock struck, and the woman
on the bed was one step nearer the
unknown..
"Is this an old affair? I mean is
it in the past?"
"No." .
The doctor sighed. He had
brought the woman, into the world,
and he loved her as his own child. v
"What are we to do, sir?"
"What indeed, nurse V
He rose and paced the room in his
perplexity.
Linley! Who was he? Pshaw t
What did it matter? The woman
would most surely die unless she
could be roused from her lethsrev.
This Linley might do it, for he was
in her mind. He must be sent for if
her life was to be saved. Her life!
What would it be worth after that?
Better death than dishonor. Let her
go down to the grave leaving a spot
less name, let her mother sorrow for
her, let her child treasure the mem
ory of a good mother, let her hus
band mourn the loss of his faithful
wife. Aye, let her die. Yet dare he
take this responsibility upon him
self ( lie could save her. UI this
he was confident. What had he to
do with others ? Saving life was his
business. She must be saved. This
Linley,. whoever he was, must be
sent for, and at once. .
"Nurse, we must send for him."
But the nurse only shook her head.
"Or she will die."
"Better so, sir."
And the doctor wavered.
"Better so; aye, better so indeed,
The price is too great to pay, even
for life, a life of agony and dishonor,
To be held in scorn by those who
admired her before. To be scoffed
at by those whose attentions she had
not deigned to accept To lose her
mother, husband and child at one
blow, and gain what ? Ho, a thou
sand times, no. Let her die."
The doctor wiped great drops of
agony irom nis orow as ue aigiieu
her death warrant
"You are right, nurse. It is best
she should diet", .
He threw himself into a chair, and
the nurse took his place at the bed
side.
"Doctor," she called out at length.
He stood beside her and noted the
chance.
'.'Call them, nurse. She will not
hve the hour out" r
Again they stood by the side of the
woman, speechless with grief. How
beautiful she looked! How utterly
lovelv ! Oh. the pity of it the must
die, so young and so loved I Oh, the
irony that love which should have
chained her to uie naa oeen ner
doom.
The clock struck once again. The
visitor was come, and the .woman
breathed her last in her husband's'
arms.
"Linley! Linley!" muttered the
doctor on his way home. I wonder
who he is. I should like to let him
know his" villainy ia known, to thrash
tha lifa out of the scoundrel to
break every bone in his body. Lin

In education, physical as well as mental, I suppose that the most
important thing ia not to FORCE anything on children; all the more
is this necessary when it comes to the most important subject re
ligious education.
Just as it is useless and harmful to feed a child when it does not
want to eat or to force a child to study subjects which do not interest
it and which are unnecessary to it, so it is even more harmful to teach
children religious conceptions about which they do not ask, and in most
cases formulate them crudely and thus DESTROY THAT RE
LIGIOUS ATTITUDE toward life which at this time i may perhaps
unconsciously develop and establish itself in the child, ; All that is
necessary, it seems to me, is to answer, but to answer TRUTHFULLY,
the questions asked by a child. . It seems very simple to answer truth
fully the religious questions of a child but in reality only he can do
it who has answered to himself .truthfully religious questions about
God, life, death, good and evil, those very questions which children
always ask so clearly and definitely.

WHAT JAPAN'S SUCCESS WILL MEAN

If Russia wins, the reverse will be true, and A WALL
WILL BE BUILT AROUND "CHINA and the
' adjoining territory which will not be to the advantage
of civilization.

peace conference which resulted in The Hague tribunal, and I also
believe he is OPPOSED to the war which he was forced to declare
and is now on. ' - " - v . " " ' ' V

-The success of Japan means much to the civilized world. . If Ja

right in Manchuria, I believe our country will be called upon to

The Men Who Are Needed w

ECRETARY TAFT in a report on the Philippines

shall not go there merely to make money or for abort

It is a splendid career, calculated
students, provided we give these young men A CHANCE FOR
PROMOTION and a reasonable certainty that they will not be
dismissed excepting for busines reasons. - 1 , -
Last year more than twenty Americans in the Philippines were
convicted of embezzlement and sent to jaiL These all were dis
bursing ofScers and there probably were others who were not. caught
If the government held out fair inducements to the young men of
our colleges such as are offered to the graduate of West Point and
Annapolis I am certain puLllo aentunent and congress ultimately
would give us a public service CLEAN AND HONORABLE as is
that of England.- -, : '
Our administration in the Philippine Islands' Is 'today the most
expensive imaginable for the mere reason that generally incompetent
men accept office under present conditions, whereas under a system
sunnar to that of our military schools we may expect a high standard.
