She was campaigning with I'undita Kamahai. and through her magnificent voice was hawing thousands of natives to her meetings. They had never seen that kind of a missionary before and bad never beard a voice like bers. They were so pleased with her work that they said to themselves: “Tills is a foreign woman guru, and for fear of giving offense to us she bas omitted to put her begging bowl out side of her door for us to put in the customary contributions.” In India every guru, or holy person, carries a brass, wood or clay begging bowl, into which the devout put some- small sum of money. Mme. Sterling walked out upon the veranda of her bungalow one morning, and there, to her amazement., found two begging bowls—One. a little one. with a few an nas in it. intended for the pundita and one, an enormous affair, containing a handsome sum of annas and rupees for herself. The only explanation she could ever extract from the servant was this: “Little bowl. little money for the little pundita with little voice; big bowl, big money for big missalijb with big voice.”—Saturday Evening Ppst. r Department,’’ icine Co., Chat- ^ ” QUICKEST SCHEDULES TO HICAGO ^ >RTHWI5ST, tanooga, Term.

Once while talking with a grizzled old woman, who lived in the same tenement, she referred to the queen. *‘0h. 'ow I would like to be the queen!" said the ancient beldam. “Why?" asked Mr. Wbiteing. “It isn't because of her ’orses. be cause if I were queen I would ’ave a donkey cart with red wheels, and it isn't because of ’er baud of musicians on ’orsebaek. 'which goes a’ead of the ’orse guards, for I’d much rattier ’ave a Hitaliau with a ’and organ; but, just think, if she wakes up at 3 o’clock in the morning ami wants'a bite to eat she can touch a bell and ’ave beef and boiled cabbage rigiit away.” A factory girl visited a collection of antique sculptures, and on bet* return Mr. Wbiteing asked her: “How did you like the statues?” “None too much at .first, sir, because nearly all of them were shamelessly dressed. Thai made me mad until 1 thought that they was awfully poor in them days and didn't ’ave money to buy clot lies with.

Afterward comes the summons to the tenants, etc., of “a cer tain tenement with a forge” in the Strand and the payment of six horse shoes. with til shoe nails, by the so licitor. This forge has long ceased to be, and the same shoes and nails are used year after year, the shoes being at least two centuries old. — COM33S — Hr.

The wire for a few such plots is-worth more than all the pigs in the state, but the hog owner de mands it. and it must be done. These owners of cattle and hogs were the first settlers in the state, and they ap pear to have had their own way in lawmaking ever since. It is a question of the- altitude.
