The Word "Legion."
"legion" was -originally a word with
a definite meaning. It meant approx
imately the same as our word "bri
gade," meaning a Roman regiment of
6,000 men or less. In the course of
time it has become a figure of speech,
intended to express the presence of a
large number of persons. Perhaps
; "brigade" or "corps" will be similarly
corrupted a thousand years from now.

When Red Hill
Glorified
By M. QUAD
Copyright, 1912, by Associated Lit
erary Press.
The village of Ked Hill had no rail
road. It had no telephones. It had a
birth or a funeral at long intervals.
Lightning had never struck anything
there, and a hurricane had never been
heard of. There was no politics, dog
fights nor lawsuits.
Red Hill just went right along with
out any man breaking a suspender as
he climbed a fence or any housewife'
burning her bread in the oven as she
gossiped at the gate, but her day was
coming. .
i On the morning of a certain day
Abraham Green's old bull got out of
the pasture and charged the town and
ripped open three barrels of salt and
upset a buggy. At high noon a mad
dog ran through the streets and bit a
hog. At 6 o'clock in the evening as
Moses Hepburn was milking his cow
by candlelight she kicked the lantern
over and set fire to the barn. The
flames were extinguished after doing
30 cents" worth of damage, but Moses
didn't stop there. The next evening
he electrified the postoffice crowd by
suggesting 'k town fire department.
There were two or three old conserva
tives who solemnly shook their heads
and declared that conflagrations were
the handiwork of Providence and
shouldn't be squirted out, but the town
in general received the idea with en
thusiasm and wondered that it had
not been broached before.
Inside of half an hour forty men had
put down their names as firemen, and
the town trustees bad named a com
mittee to go to New York and look at
a hand fire engine and report on the
cost. It was only after the report had
been made and public spirit worked
np to the boiling point that a cloud of
trouble sailed over the horizon. All
of a sudden everybody remembered
that a fire department must have a
foreman, and everybody felt that he
was just the man for the place. It
was Absalom Jones who made the first
break by rising np and saying:
"I am not the man, as you all know,
to thrust myself forward, but on this
occasion I arise to say that I am wil
ling to make sacrifices and become the
boss of the fire company. All I ask in
return, in case I perish while doing my
duty, is that you will visit by grave
now and then and cherish my mem
ory." Then Hiram Smallman got up. Hi
ram had once assisted to put out a fire
in a grocery store in Syracuse and he
considered himself a fire veteran.
There was no doubt in his mind that
whoever was elected foreman would
sooner or later tumble off the roof of a
burning house and break his neck, but
when duty called he was not the man
to hang back. He had but one neck,
but he would gladly break that and his
back to boot snatching widows and or
phans from the grasp of the fire fiend.
There were faint cheers as he sat down
with moistened brow, but the applause
didn't discourage Deacon Spooner.
"Sons of freedom." he began as he
rose up, "there should be no strife or
jealousy over this matter. What we
first want is an engine to squirt out
fires. What we next want is a compe
tent man to direct the squirting. As
you are all aware, I have been in the
pump business for the last fifteen years
and I ought to know something about
water and squiiag. I will take the
place of boss and do my best, and no
man can do more. I may perish in my
first conflagration, but if so you will
remember me as one who did his whole
duty."
As the deacon was sixty years old.
nearsighted and deaf in the starboard
ear, his offer to sacrifice himself didn't
create any great enthusiasm. When he
saw this he sat down with a jar. and
Philetus Johnson took his place. He
admitted that his experience with con
flagrations had only extended to a
burning haystack and a blaze in a
woodbox behind the stove, but he was
willing to learn not only that, but
willing to peril life and limb in the
learning. In case of death he would
leave a widow and seven children and
two cows to mourn his loss, but the
town would erect a stone to his mem
ory, and on it would be graven the
words, "Here lies a man."
For two or three minutes after Phile
tus sat down it looked as if he would
reach the pinnacle of fame, but there
were others waiting to have their say.
The last speech of the evening was
made by Lawyer Tompkins, though'
only half finished. He started out to
tell of the burning of Rome,' and how
the fire could have been squirted out
at the beginning by the right sort of a
man in command of tbe fire depart
ment, and had gradually worked down
to Washington crossing the Delaware
when the impatient audience howled
him down and proceeded to a ballot.
The ballot showed that there were forty-two
firemen present and that every
one wanted to be foreman. The chair-"
man rapped for order and asked them
to remember that the eyes of the
whole world were upon them and that
one having the true interests of the
people at heart would willingly give
ivay, but the second and third ballots
showed the same result. Then Judge
Harmon arose and appealed to the pa
triotism of the audience, saying that
General Jackson always stood ready to
take a back seat, but another ballot
showed no change. When tbe result
was announced there was a deep si
lence for a minute, and then somebody
moved to adjourn, and It was carried,
and the crowd filed slowly and sol
emnly outdoors.
A MORNING PRAYER.
"The day returns and brings us
the petty round of irritating con
cerns and duties. Help us to play
the man, help us to perform them
with laughter and Line? faces, let
cheerfulness abound with industry,
give us to go blithely on our way,
all this day, bring us to out resting
beds weary and content and undis
honored, and grant us in the end
ihe gift of sleep. Amen. Robert

Harpooning a Whale. .
The method of catching whales in
southern seas is vividly desu-nhed by
our consul general at Hf! en us Aires.
He says: 'The harpoon used iu whal
ing is a deadly weapon of marvelous
intricacy. It is shot from a cannon,
which can he focused with greitt ra
pidity at any angle from its pedestal
on the specially constructed ship. On
penetrating the body of the whale the
point of the harpoon explodes, and its
four hooks spread out into the flesh,
securely holding the shaft of the har
poon, which ends in a ring carrying. a
strong cable. Held by this eabie. the
struggling whale tows the boat after
it at a terrific speed until forced by
its wounds to succumb."

The Tides.
The tides are nothing but very long
waves, and the manner in which they
run around the earth without the water
being obliged to move very far may be
illustrated by laying a piece of rope on
the floor and making waves run along
it from end to end. The waves go all
the way, but the rope lies in the same
place all the time.
