Oaa day Robert Csrpsnter naked ita te msrry bim. He propoted in a Uaadsribg, ronndsbout wsy, to daatsily tbal I did not know at flrti what hs msant. Hs made roe slmoat uaoaftttsdst bimaelf, and whether I said yss or no Ido not uow recollect, bat hs wsnt away smiling, ao I con- dada hs tbonght himaell sn accepted lOTSr, and I had a riug which I put away in a box, undecided whether to vaar it or givs it bsck.
I don't think I expected that Oua would bssr of thia and come forward M Robert's rlvsl. He did not, at any rate. Wheu I met him he simply Mid:
"Wall, littls girl, so yoa aro en- pgad to Carpenter. He ia a good fel¬ low, but yoa aro yonng. Yon thouUl haFB waited a little longer."
"An sngagsment duet not mean BMrrlsgs,"     I     replied,    somewhat
eoald^s deB||f<aBawa«ir'nria^ to paj
for It. He wss in quite an excited frame of mind, and I hardly kntw my usnal piseid Ona,
"Of eonrae, when yon were engagec to Robert, it waa not for me to make any attempt to win yon. I tkongk< yon knew yoor own mind, aud kaJ decided thai I waa aot tke aort of iel low you cared to marry. Bqt tki; Iriek gives i.ie a rigkt to speak, .^m I too late?"
^Naturally I told kim ke.was, Tka' if he had cared for me iu that way k( ongkt to kavS come forward loug be fore. Now that my word waa pliglitec" to Robert, and I could uot tbiuk ol breaking il, tkougk ke Iia.l acted iu i moat despicable mauuer, iu a mauuei to make mo askamed to tkiuk ke wai my plighted lover—ond so on.
To -irkick Oua replied:
"All right, liltlo girl. If you tkinV to, I had better go and givo biro lb( worst licking he evor bad in kia life, even thongh they do sen.l mo lo jai for it.    But yon won't care."
"I shall oare."
"Then we'd better gel married al onee, early tomorrow moruiug. Uow early can yon be ready?"
I ought to hare resisted lougor, I.ul I didn't. I consented to bo ren.ly al any honr tbat he should uauic—und ] waa—and we were married.
And that ia all there is to Ike story.

A problem that may mean much to rural districts is receiving atteution near Paria. A pair of trolley wirec haa been stretched along Ike highway for half a mile aud a double trolle; driven by a little motor along thiat wirea carries a cable—twenty-live oi thirty feet loug—cuiidnating current to the molor of au automobile. Tbe length of the cable permits tke car¬ riage to run uu eilher sideof the road, turning out as may be necessary.
It has beeu noticed tbal many plants, not uatives of Ike localit.v, aru to ke fonuil growing in tho neigkkor- hood of great railroad yarda. Somo times the aeeda of these plants have been brought thonsands of miles from their natnral habitat. Ofleu tbej flonriah amid tbeir new surroundings, aud gradually spread over tho sur- rounding country. Thns tho railroadi carry uui.nHpected emigrants, wbiob travel lo and from every point ol tke compass. Iu tko Mississippi Vnlley are to be fouud paints wbicb, witbiu a few years past, bave been tbus brought togelbcr, eome from tbo .\t. laulic seaboard, some from the Oull region, and some from tbe other sid( of the Itocky Mounlaius.
In the light of recent diauoveriea oi:o of the greatest wonders of tko keavcns appears even more wonderful. Tbere is a small class of variabU atara, lesa Ihau twenty in kuowu uum ber—tbe moat couapicuoua member of which is Algol, the "Demon" of tbe Arabs—which at brief intervals anffci a partial eclipse from the interpusitioc ot dark or invisible companions rc volviug around tbeiu.

In only oue case can tho limiting density exceed half thai ol water, aud iu six eases it ia lesa than one.toutk tkal of water. Tbo average ia one.sixtk tkal of water, Thia deu- sily tkeae stars oannot exceed, al- Ikougk they may full far boloiv it. Tbe density of our sun compared witb j waler is 1,41, Tbo possibility exists ' Ikat tke .^Igol stars may cack liavo a j denser uuclcun Hurrouudu.l by au enormous cloudy euvelop'-.

A cnrioua and in   some  respects   a suggestive illustration uf what may be lurmod   mauufacturiug   ideas  is   af¬ forded   by  tbo recent introduction in¬ t.i the Eugliak   market   of   tbo papei | handkerchief   of   Japan.

Bnbjecli Tlie Centarlon'a Servant H«al*d, Luke vlL, 1-IU—Oelden Text. Pu. clli., 13.*Meuiory Ver.a.,0, tO«ColiimeBt«ry OD Ihe tlar'. Leon.
1. "When He|iad eade.lall Rlaaayluga.' The sayings recorded In the preceding chapter and In the sermon Ile had juat pr^cbed, "In the audience of the people.' Whut 'chriat said He aald publicly; who- ever would mlitht come and hear Hl.n. He Hlmaeif aald, "In aeeret bave I said noth¬ ing. " John IC-JO. "He entered into Caper¬ naum." Caperuniim was whoro most of Chrlai's mighty deeds were pcrlormed. Matt, 11:33. His miracles fulled 10 produce repeutnnce. Thounl.elletof thelnhnbltauts ol that cltv, as Christ solemnly declared, reniloro.l the.n moregullty thau tUe people o( S.i.Iom. -piireo leesoua may lie drawn fr.im this: 1. That It Is foolishness to tklnk Ihnl (allh would have been stronger than It Is In us, if we had been witnesses ol Clirlsl's lite nud miracles, 2. Th it we msy shudder at thu alus o( utiiers and at the punishment they may liavo lucurrod, nn.l yet ho (nr more gciity ourselves, 3. Ac jording to tho measure of light against which we hnveslnue.l will be our punish- neat.
3. -'A cerialn centurion-s acrvaut," A ?eulurlon was a Roman oflleer who had .'linrge <,f one tiuudre.I men. This servant ivos a slave, "Who was dear unto htm." D,-, ".vho was 111 much osleem with him," lly this slateineut Luke luuans that this was not an ordinary sl-ive, but a fallhful lervaut, distinguished by many excel- .euces, and very highly esteemed by his iiasler. "Was sick." ".-lick ot the palsy, grievously tormeutod." .Malt. H:«. "An,l ready lo die."    At tbo point o( death, R. V.
3. "When he heard of Jesus," Of His irrlvnl nt Cnperuaum, ITo must have known )( Ills miraeloa before thla. "Seut unto ilim .he.olders ol tho Jews." Tl.ese woro •llher m.iglslrates iu tho piaee, or tho • iders of the synagogue wbich the ceu. :urion had erected. V, 5. He sent these, probablv, because he thought they would have n greater luflueuce wllh Christ. Hu was a Gonllln, and ovldontiy feared that I'hrlst might uot receive him, Miitlhew .ays tho eeuturlon cliue to Jesus. He pr.ihably camo later, for Jesus evidenlly spoke directly to Llui. He showed great respect to Jeaiia. Ho chose tue moat honor- able person to approach Htm. Truo liumlllty doos houor to a superior; n false UumlUly sometimes le,i(Is oue t.i ho guilty o( real diarosiiooi. "Bosooching Hira." Karneatly outreatlug Him. Those elders at the Jews roust havo beeu strongly nt- Inclie.l to the centurion. "Would come." Thov evidently thought It would he proper f.ir Hlin to go t.) thn house, oven though lhe centurion was a Geutllo.
4. "Wlieu they eame t.i Josus." Distress drives to Jesus, aud Jesus comes lo thoso til illstreas. It would be well with us if wo would all go to Chriat. "They heaought Him InalaDlly." Thnt la, earnestly and without a moment's delay. "He was worthy.-' This Is ithnt the olders sal.I ot :lie cenlurl..u. Ills opiulon ot himself was very different, Tho eeuturlon thought lie was not wortliy of .. visit, theee men thought ll.. wns worthy of the euro; thus aonor siinli uphol.l tho humhioln spirit. Let nnothor prals,. tbeo nnd not thine owu lips.
6. "He lovolli our nation." The elders iup|,osed they wouhl bo oblige.! to romovo the prejudice against thu Geullles (rnm thu min.l 01 Josus. Tills was all tho more ro- markahle, becnuse but vory few of tho Oon- lllea loved the Jewish people, "Hathbuilt us n synagogue." -This he bad dOQo at his own expense, having uo doui.t nniploybd his owu suldiers lu the work. Opinions dif¬ fer as to whether this oouliirlon woa a proselyte, but uno thing Is certain, lie had sliowu his love for the Ood of Isrnel, for the Jewlsli lieople and for thoir worship, by buildiug n synagogue.
fi, "Jesus went with them," Josus wa* very ready to go wllh thum. He Is the Sav¬ iour of tho Gentiles ns well na Iho Jews. Hu wh., bad preaebnil tt-.o gospel to the l.oor woman nt the well wouhl certainly be ready tn help this ceuturlilu. "Not fur from tho house." Jeans thought him as wortliy ns tho Jowa. No one la worthy; thn hlnstlng* ot Ihe Lord nlwn.ya come t.> us as an net of mercy ou the p.irt n( Co.l. "The eonturlnn aunt (rlen,ls In Him." This wns the second deiiutntlou, and It la .lulle likely that the eeuturlon also came lilm. sell, ha.. Matt. 8:5 ,S. "Lord, Iroublo not ThyaeK, ' I( bu had kuowu Josus belter hu would have known thnt Jesus wns anx¬ ious to help Iilm, Cnrlbt (ilonds wllh us to open the door nn.l let lilm in, "I nm not wortliy,-- He was only ii Guntllo nr.d thus outsi.le o( Iho favored nntlou. Ho rugacd. 0,1 Jesus as a superior Beiug.
7, "To como unto Thee. - Hu felt ns ll,o,igli l,e oiiid not npt roaeli Into tho presence of One so great and so holy. Tho I sinner, who Is Iruly peulleut, humbles him¬ self lu Just this way, nti'd trembles as ho a|.. |,roaches Into the'presenco of Josus. "But H,iy 1,1 n wor.l." It Is lutorostlug to noll.'e that Jos,IS ha.l alrea.iy wrought n mir.icle nt this kln,l (about six months heforo thlal, when, hy Ills word, spoken at n dislauee, the son ot the uohlomau ut Cnpernnuiu hail heen healed. John 4:46.54, Hu nskoil not lhe presence of t^hrlst, but only an exertion ot Ills will. He believed lu lilm who la the LUe Indeed; hence ho could trust the Lly. Ing Will out of sight. "Shall i,e healed." He ha.l uo doubt whatever ,>f (Christ's ubll- ,tv to |terform a conii.lete cure, Iustautly, by Jusl S[,eaklug the ivor.l.
H. "Sot under nuthorlly." That is, tin- dur the nuthorlty o( othors. The argument a( tho centurion avns thnt, allhough he was indor the aathorlty of others, yet ho ha.l authority over otliera nnd they iv.-nl at hia hi.Idlng; how much more coul 1 Christ, who IVUS under tho nuthorlty of no one, n-.- compllsb whnt Ho willed. He Is conll.leul :liat Jesu* can as easily bcd.I nu augel to -uru this servant of his, as he can sond n ,oldler ou nn errand,
9. "He inarvollml at !,lra." Tliu only tilber time that Jesus Is said to have been istonlshed ia lu Mark 6:11, when He mar. veiled because of unhollef, Christ was not Ignorant of the centurion's fnllli. He kuew III! aliout thnt betore ii w.ird ha.l heeu spoken; hul llo exitrease.l Ills admlrutlou with a view t.. make It the uioro conaiileu. ous. "Said unto tho people.-' Jesua wnuld hav..
