Ho had another and n better name, and In good time It cntno to light," nnd was entered In the Sunday school class book; but "Toodles" was tho name ho gave, and Toodles was the name by which ho had gono during tho greater part of his life; and Toodles Is tho only name by which bo shall bo known to tho readers of this article. "Where do you live?" asked tho teacher. "Around the corner," was his reply. It was tho only residence given for rec ord. Hut what corner ho lived nround Is not yet known; ho lived mostly "around corners," nnd hnd picked up a miscellaneous fund of Information there. Toodles liked tho Sunday school. To somo of tho boys with plenty of homo privileges, Sunday school was a com monplace blessing, If a blessing nt all; but Toodles counted It among tho lux urles of his scant life. It Is cheering to tho heart of n Sunday school teach er to have an appreciative pupil. It moro than compensates for Bomo uncon rcntlonalltlcs In tho matter of apparel and speech. There Is no place for tho recording of tho deficiencies of Toodles. Indeed, they arc forgotten. Ills was n loyalty ami enthusiasm that would have hid n multitude of infelicities, If there hnd been n multitude to hide. Tlrero wero not many; It Is hard now to bcllovo that there wero nny. Toodles became a diligent propagan dist. Ho brought moro boys Into tho Sunday school than did nny other mem ber. Thoro wns not oven a tenchor w1h had ho ninny to her credit. And Too dles' recruits, brought In from his own strntuin of society, ho regarded as un der his en re, and they looked to him as their loader and representative. Then came the earthquake nnd the Are. Tho church of eight hundred members seemed to have dlsnpiwnred In n night. Thoro was a hardly a member whoso bomo was not burned and whoso busi ness wns not destroyed. Scores of them left the city, nnd hundreds removed to other portions of tho town or to tho suburbs, or camped In tho parks nnd slept between tho graves In tho ceme teries. Tho beautiful walls of tho church stood cracked by tire carthquako and blackened by the flro. In tlmo n temporary place of meeting was found, and a Sunday service was held, n pathetic contrast to tho over flowing sc'rvlces of tho days before tho disaster. The Sunday school wns re organized on tho snmo day. A pitiful handful of children appeared, nnd tho question wns what to do. Could tho boys and girls bo found? Could enough of them bo assembled to mako n Sun dny school In tho henrt of tho burned district? Then entered Toodles. Ho had walked thlrty-nlno' blocks to get there, nnd wns lato. Hut tho school Informally rc Bolved Itself Into n session with Too dles. Thoro wns not n camp within or nbout the city which ho had not vis ited, and ho know Just who wore there. He wns nblo to glvo lists from memory of moro of tho church families than oven tho minister knew. Ho knew where tho boys were. The minister nnd tho superintendent nnd the teachers got out their note books nnd sat at tho feet of Toodles. Among tho most encouraging facta In tho reorganization of that Sunday school was tho practical assistance given by this waif. And tho minister said, "Brethren, It always pays to help a boy; you never know how soon bo will be nhle to help you. Who of us supposed when we took this little Ind off the Btreet, nnd gave him what wo could in tho Master's name, that . so soon we should And him ono of our best helpers?" They thanked God for Toodles, and took courage. Youth's Companion. Christian Contentment. Toverty Is largely a matter of fancy. The real poverty Is in tho mind In tho mind's attitude. There Is such a thins as being rich without money. That man is rich who is rlcn in Integ rity, and who has that beat of all blessings, a contented mind Christian contentment This last great boon Is gained through making tho most of our little enjoyments, through making the least of our little lacks, through doing our best at our little duties through trusting In God and doing the right To be sure, we cannot all be money rich. Borne money-rich people are very poor. Dut we can all be millionaires of character and of faith, possessing that godliness which, with contentment, Is a great gain, the real gain, the high est riches. G. D. F. Hallock, D. D. Sweat Hoar of Vrmymw, Christ is the only teacher of real prayer. He teaches by example and precept He prayed trustingly, con stantly, in intimate friendship with the Father. He teaches us to pray as He did, Solitude, Isolation and retirement are essential to prayer. Get away from the world somewhere, alone. Our Jtouseholda must be so arranged as to permit a quiet time alone each day, without Interruption or observation. In prayer there must be absolute concen tration of the nrlnd. Head the Ulble prayerfully. Here God talks to Ills children. Let the thought of earthly communion wjth the heavenly JfctiM become JubltuaL "Practice the pres ence of God." Look forward to tho hour of prayer as the most delightful season of tho day. Keep tho Qulot Hour. If you thus learn to pray In secret, your public prayers will take caro of themselves. I. Ifo n Dlaelpllne. Sooner or later wo Hnd out that life is not n holiday, but a discipline. Ear lier or later wo will discover that tho world Im not a playground. It Is qulto clear that God moans It for a school. Tho moment wo forgot that, tho nuzzlo of. life begins. Wu try to play In school. Tho Master does not mind that so much for Its own sake, for lie likes to seo Ills children happy; but In our play ing wo neglect our lessons. Wo do not seo how much there Is to learn, and we do not enre. Hut our Master enres. Ho has n perfectly ovcriwwcrlng and Inex plicable solicitude for our education; nnd bccutiM! Me loves us Ho comes Into tho school sometimes and speaks to us. Onil'a Ilculftw. In our wholo llfc-melody tho music Is broken olt hero and thero by "rests," nnd wo foolishly think wo havo come to tho end of tho tunc. God sends n tlmo of forced leisure, n tlmo of sick ness nnd disappointed plans, nnd makes a sudden pause In the choral hymn of our lives, nnd wo lament that our voices must be silent and our part miss ing In tho music which over goes up to tho ear of the Creator. Not without design does God write the music of our lives. He It ours to learn tho tuno and not bo dismayed at tho "rests." If wo look up, God will beat tho tlmo for us. Itusklu. SPIES ON THE MACHINERY. Cloek Arrangement Telia Antotnntl emllr When It Work or Ileata. Tho Introduction of modern detail cost accumulating methods, which havo dono much to systematize and cheapen manufacture, has led to tho develop ment of an Ingenious apparatus which Indicates at a distance when any ma chlno is stoped nnd tho output of nny mnchlno for n given period. .Moreover, tho dovlco makes an automatic record of nil these facts so that at tho close of tho day tho manager, by ucunnliig tliolr graphic records, can tell tho ex act output of any mnchlno and tho length of tlmo It was In operation, thereby enabling him to form an accu rnto Judgment of the reliability of dif ferent operators. Tho beauty of thU device is that tho workmau knows his ovory movement Is bemg reported In tho manager's ofllco and ho Is helpless to misrepresent conditions. Tho recorder consists of a control ling clock, which revolves a scries of tlmo charts, ono for each machine un der observation. Tho hours nnd divi sion of hours nro printed vertically on tho chart, In addition to which n series of pencils nro rigidly fixed. Tho ad justment Is such that tho mnchlno can ho mado to Indicate eyery slngla revo lution or nny multiple desired nnd each horizontal stroko of tho pencil Indi cates ono of theso units, which is mndo opposite tho corresponding hour nnd minute. When there nro no strokes It Indicates that tho inachlno is stopped. Hy slmplo mechanical arrangement nn nlr piston Ib operated, which in turn establishes ah electric connection, tho impulso of which Is transmitted to the recording mnchlno controlling It mech nnlsm. It Is suggested that his davliii could bo iiBed to great advantage In connection with 1ho engines of tteum Hhlps, ns a graphic record Is mndo of sjH'cd and tho exact moment when nny order is carried out Manufacturer. WALL PAPERS FROM CHINA. Dnllr of I'eklnsr, Now In II. 1,'JOOth Year, Printed on Hllk. We nro opt to forget, writes Miss Kuto Snnborn, In her uow book, "Old- Time Wall Papers," how much wo owe to tho Chlneso nation tho mariner's compass, gunpowder, paper, printing by movabld types (a dally paper has been published In Peking for 1,200 years printed, too, on silk), They had what we call tho golden rulo COO years before Christ was born. With six times tho population of tho United States they are tho only peoplo in the world who havo maintained a government for 8,000 years. Tho earliest papers we hear of any where wore Imported from China nnd bad Chinese or Indian pattorns, com ing first In small sheets, then in rolls. Somo of the more elaborato kinds were printed by band; others wero printed blocks. Tliese papers, used for walls, for hangings and for screens, were called "pagoda papers" and were dec orated with flowers, symbolic animals and human figures. The Dutch were among the most en terprising, Importing painted hauglngs from China and the East nbout the middle of the sixteenth century. Per haps theso originated in Persia; the word "chintz" Is of Persian orlglu and the French name for its Imitations was "Perses." About 1746 the Vompagnlo des Indes began to Import these papers directly, They were then also called "Indian papers." Aug. 21, 1874, wo find an advertisement; "For sale 20 sheets of India paper, representing the cultiva tion of tea." Such a paper, with this theme was brought to America 1R0 years ago a hand-painted Chinese wall paper, which has been ou a house ever sinco and Is to-day In a good state of preservation.
