The value of “the littles” was never more impressively shown than.in the re sult of the "penny a day pledge” from which the Salvation Army has drawn so large a portion or its revenues. Tbe members or that Army are in all coun tries of the very poorer, people, but tens of thousands of dollars flow anually into the treaeniy from their habit of “laying by in store” a single penny a day. Others besides tbe Salvationists have taken up the idea. Indeed it was not a new idea with them From among Christians everywhere there beve always been those who knew the importance of Children’s Department. ■ton Received at London—Several Prominent Personages Crashed to j Death—Twenty-Four Are Dead—The Queen Learns of the Aeeident.

But lately it has become an integral part of the system of some churches, and a great many of the Christian Endeavor Societies, Epworth Leagues, and King’s Daughters Circles have adopted it, They ciroulate cards tearing the “Penny Pledge” printed upon them, with place for name and date. The pledge runs thus: Trusting in God for grace faithfully to keep my word, I do hereby promise as a Christian to give t?o less than one.penny every day, each year of my life, for mis sion work at home and abroad Bucb a (fledge seems a simple one to keep, but it is in fact uot so easy as it looks. In the first place, it involves our cause of missions *‘oo our minds” all the time. Every day we must remember to put aside the penny. And it is not con venient every day to spare even so small a sum as a penny. No, it is not an easy thing to do, but it is a blessed thing to bear even “on one’s mind,” or better still, on one’s heart, the burden of obligation to souls for whom Christ died; it is bles sed to have tbe daily consciousness of be ing co-workers with him. And the more “abundant” the poverty out of which tbt gift ia made, tbe more blessed the reward 8ince|tbe greater the sscriflce.the more clo sely are wej associated with tbe in finite sacrifice of our Lord. If every Christian man, woman and child were to give one penny a day to Christian benevolence'lh.e churches could far more than double their missionary ef fort. But it to not possible that tbe reg- ular contribotations would long stop at penny a day. Tbe babiv of giving is o that grows by wbat it feeds on. Tbe Ion gerit is indulged tbe stronger it becomes, until the giver finds many sacrifices and savings possible which once be could not have d retimed of, and learns that there to a truer and more satisfying joy found in money given for tbe cause of Christ than in anything which money can buy. If once the “penny a day” habit could be fairly estimated in all our churches, there would be almost no limit to the funds available for all forms of Christian work. very soon if be has begun so early, I re-1 time of the collision. j There are stories afloat of pareBts eat- P 1 *^- rr» otnaiQ I Twenty dead and twenty-three in- j ing cl)ilJren in Nijni-Novgorod. offbJbiSSdf behind ib?b ck fence and iured * f ° nr The anthoritie8 in P 1 * 068 «* then smokes.” I were extricated from the debris.

Before Clementina went down to Mill- town for the summer she made up her mind that she would bend all her ener gies to wheedle Aunt Phoebe out of tbe old blue ginger jar that Oncle Julius had brought home from China, little thinking that the old slant eyed, fat sided mandarin would take such a jocu lar interest in her joys and sorrows. The old blue jar had perched for many years on the corner of the high mantel piece in the old fashioned country par lor, and Aunt Phoebe knew that if she gave it to Clementine she would have a WORK OP A MOB. beeim—WatM LUyf ** * Sm ° ker ***** & 8yna « ogae to bnUt in Macon to mains fed to hogs and ’part stripped of take the place of the present building.

Under some occult but imperative pressure Randall removed the lid and tonched with his finger the silken texture of some mysterious contents. Curiosity \ further constrained him, and he pulled from the bosom of the now jubilant mandarin a pale blue ar ticle of singular description for a parlor ornament, aud following it, be extri cated a pale pink strip of similar shape and structure. Taming to Clementine for explana tion of these unforeseen apparitions, he found her speechless with wild eyed as tonishment, and, without a word or gesture, she seized the old bine jar and hurried from the room. Randall smiled the first real, soul felt, refreshing smile that he had indulged in for several months, and vowed' by the pigtail of the old Blsut eyed that he would stay Rioted to the spot until Clementine returned.

But Clementine was an accomplished wheedler, and the fond old aunt finally said she might have her wish. When Aunt Pcebe gave over to Clem entine her right aud title to the old blue jar, Randall waa leaning in the window and idly sifting rose leaves from the old climbing vine through the meshes of his tennis racket He sympathized with her lively admiration for the antique and unique in china, and was glad that she had attained her heart’s desire; bat a more absorbing interest possessed his manly breast . . Clementine was going home in tbe morning, and he had been trying in vain for several days to get the feeble cour age of his ardent convictions up to the declarative point She was Buch a live ly. fun loving girl, and love, you know, is such intensely serious business. Sev eral times Randall fancied he had found her in a sober, and properly inceptive frame of mind, when, with a trifling jest, she would defeat his intention and put the little god to flight Now, however, when the slant eyed mandarin on the blue jar winked at him through the vines, Randall said to him self enthusiastically: “Well, old boy; that’s tbe very thing! Thank yon for the bright idea! Are they all as clever aa you are over in China?” That night in his room under the jeaves, he constructed an eloqnent letter to Clementine, and in the early morning sneaked into the parlor and deported it in the robust bosom of the old blue man darin. “If she finds it before she goes home it is all right,” said the timorous, adoring fellow, “and if she doesn’t find it until afterward it will be all right too.” But the mandarin felt a little fanny that day; so when Clementine packed her trank he inspired her to staff the ginger jar foil of her silken hose, that the precious article might take no risks of breakage in itB voyage. So, when Randall parted from her' at the station she made no sign of knowing anything In particular, and his hopeful heart de cided that she would surely find the let ter when she reached home, and he would then hear from her. Now Clementine was a girl who al ways had a great many thingk on her mind, and when ehe had unpacked the treasured jar and placed it on a dainty table in her pretty parlor—with a self congratulatory thought that it waa so respectable to have things that one’s relative Bad brought from China—she wholly forgot the curious load that the mandarin had on his breast. She missed her silken hose, of course, and pestered Aunt Phoebe with messages about them. In Mill town, os you may imagine. Randall waited for the answer to his letter. Awhile he waited patiently, then impatiently awhile, and then dived into his law books with that “composure of settled distress” which lovers have known in every age and clime. He did not dream that the slant eyed mandarin would be guilty of the ungentlemanly trick of intercepting a lovo letter. But the fan loving mandarin knew what he was about. He was not with out experience in these matters, aud he wanted to pnnisb Clementine a trifle, and bring her to the proper condition of seriousness. • And Clementine was feeling the situa tion with all the sobriety that was desir able. She had suspected all summer that Randall had a tender feeling for her which she felt qualified to reciprocate, but she was a proud girl, and could not, by a feather’s weight, influence the bal ance of his attentions. Therefore, be hind her smiles.she had been not a little wounded that he had allowed her to come home without having given ex pression to his sentiments. So she, too, uow took on a sober coun tenance and bunished thought and regret by joining several new clnbs and taking membership in two or three more chari table Organizations. * ^ Just before Christmas Randall one day experienced in his breast a sort of im- perative intimation—perhaps directfrom the slant eyed mandarin, who knows?— that he might hear of something to his advantage if he should go down to the city and call upon Clementine; so. after Borne futile resistence to the message, he betook himself thither. He was graciously received by Clem- entjne—that is, graciously enough for a bility of this revelation lies between yon and me and the ginger jar.—Emma Carleton in Romance. To Km|i Apple* or Pear*.
