"Who ts it?" - "A girl who works hard in a store all day and who is saving from a very small salary the money to pay for her lessons." "She has a great love for music," was suggested. "No more than others. That is not the cause of her progress. It is be cause she is paying for her lessons herself and working awfully hard to do it. Every lesson means money she has sacrificed to get, and she is going to get all out of that- lesson possible. I am not so' sure that it is the best thing to. help people too much to an education. If that girl's lessons were paid for I do not believe she would progress nearly so fast. Yet there are lots of charitable people if they knew how hard she works and how much she is denying herself would probably be glad to pay for her lessons." "But people are grateful for the aid they reecive and try to show that they appreciate it," was objected. "Grateful, yes," answered the teacher. "But somehow or ofher there is not the same incentive. The person who is being helped, if he is honorable, will work hard. But my experience is that he would not dig like the one who has to earn every penny that buys him what he wants. So you see, there are compensations in all things. If you have to earn your own way through college or must work hard to pay xor some special course or study, do not consider it too great a hardship and that fate has been unkind to you. Do not be envious Of others who seem to have more of this world's good things than you have. In other ways you are getting more than tney. That is, what may seem hardship and loss, what may seem to mean dropping behind in the- race may not be so at all, but in reality a power that is helping you to go forward faster. The fact that you are working your way instead of having it paid for you may mean that you are getting more than if your road had been made easy for you. It may be of some help to know this. Often when our lot appears hard, when we seem to have our nose right down to the grindstone all the time, we do not see the real gains we are making, We do not realize how this very work is strengthening us, riving a bigger comprehension of lite, broadening and deepening our our sympathies, giving us an impetus in the direction in which we are going, which without it we would not have. If you are working especially hard to achieve some coveted goal, take an honest look at your course from this angle. Perhaps you will see some gains to which you have been blind. This teacher is a woman of wide ex perience and has a keen understanding of human nature. Her opinion is worth considering. "Small red pimples which were sore and Inflamed broke out on each of my baby's cheeks. They began to spread and would Itch and burn and cause him to scratch and Irritate them. He was cross and fretful at night which caused me to lose sleep, and hia face was disfigured fcr the time being. "I used Soap and with no re lief. Then I used Cuticura Soap and Oint ment and in a week's time they relieved him of all the itching and burning and for the first time he rested peacefully at night. I only used one cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment and in three weeks his face was healed and his skin clear and perfectly smooth." (Signed) Mrs. Emwia Bradford, R.F.D. 0.

And poor Benny set up a shout that was soon answered by three otner Ameri can boys who had been fishing farther down the stream. "There are no men at home now," explained Benny, when his comrades had gathered about. "But some are due tomorrow, for my father gets home early in the day. It is up to usj boys, to keep that fleet; can we do it 7" There were Bob. Fred and Harold, besides himself, making four in all. So Ben pat still with his head in his hands, while the other boys watched the ships sailing toward them. Pres ently the little fleet dropped anchor and came to rest about a quarter of a mile off shore. "I have it," exclaimed Benny, start ing to his feet, "we can fool those English and capture their ships all by ourselves if you fellows will Just rfollow me." Then he explained what they were to do. Harold knew all tho army bugle calls and had an Instru ment with which he could send the notes trembling far over the river, so he ran home for it, while Benny ex plained the plan to the others. ' Fred was an expert at drumming and hap pened to have brought his best one along. "My plan is this," said Benny. "We must make the British believe that the American troops have Just arrived, but the best plan will be not to do the work till after sunset. Then we can manage it easily. Now all of us get to work and build big bonfires on all of the eight hills in sight. That will keep us busy till supper, and after you follows have had supper, come here as quickly as you can. That captain will think we have 10,000 troops here and father can make him surrender." So all the hot afternoon the four boys worked like beavers dragging brush and dead planks to the top of the hills till each one was crowned with a huge pile of brush. The Eng lish ships lay still in the bend of the river and did not notice anything un usual going on around them. But as soon as darkness crept over the land big bonfires began to pop out. First one then another blazed forth till very hill was a beacon light. Then Benny had Harold walk along the meadow sounding his bugle as if call ing troops to camp, while Fred on an other lowland beat his drum loudly as if he also, were carrying orders to soldiers. All night there was to be heard the shrill calls of a bugle and the stately roll of a drum echoing from the hills. When dawn drew near Benny ran home to greet his father, who had Just arrived. In a few excited words he tod his story. "Write a note to that British cap tain demanding his surrender, telling him it is useless to delay, that the American troops are on all sides," cried the boy. "Then take it out your self under a flag of truce." Within half an hour this was done, and by the time the first rays, of the sun dipped on the .water the English captain, believing he was in the hands of the enemy, surrendered to Benny's father. And a very much ashamed crew were the British soldiers when they marched ashore to see that four American .boys had captured their entire fleet.

BennT Brown'a Battle. BENNY BROWN sat on the bank of the river down in Georgia fish ing. Benny was eleepy. for the sun shown warmly on the water, but the howl of animals back in the for ests kept him awake for it was more than 100 years ago that Benny lived, and he Was a lad right. in the midst of the excitement of the Revolutionary War. So as his cork bobbed, his head nodded. Then suddenly he sat up and gazed in wonder, for around the bend in the river came four stately ships of war. On board he could see big guns peeping over the side and men in blue with swords dangling about their knees. "The British Bloops," he cried in as tonishment, "going up the river and all the American troops away.

After having been out but 25 min utes, a jury in Judge McGinn's court late yesterday returned a verdict for James F. Robinson, secretary of the Oregon grand lodge of Ancient Free and Accepted Masons, in the J50.000 damage suit brought .against him by M..McB. Thomson, of Salt Lake City, president-General of the American Ma sonic Federation. The suit was brought as the result of an alleged libelous in terview with Mr. Robinson, which was printed in a Portland newspaper of July 9. 1915. The article in question quoted Mr. Robinson as having declared that the organization headed by Mr. Thomson is in no way connected with recognized Masonic orders. It also quoted him as saying that one Portland man had been fleeced out of 1200 by Thomsons or ganization and that persons were told All Charge Purchases Made Today Will Go on Your June Account Payable July 1 Manicuring and Hair-Dressing Parlors 2d Floor Ice Cream Parlor, Basement FLAGS for Decor ation Day and Rose Festival in all the wanted - sizes at reasonable prices.'

Judge McGinn held that the only question ' at issue was whether the or ganization in Portland had fleeced per sons as charged. The other matters, he declared, were such as should prop erly be settled by the two orders be tween themselves. He also ruled that it was up to the plaintiff to show that malice existed on the part of the de fendant in giving out the article. Mr. Robinson on the stand admitted giving out the interview, but declared he had papers and letters substantiat ing his statements. These papers and letters were Introduced as evidence. Witnesses testifying for the defense declared that they had been told Join ing Thomson's order would permit them to visit any Masonic lodge. A letter from Scotland was introduced to show that Thomson had been expelled from a Masonic lodge In that country. Coos Bonds to Be Offered at Once, MARSHFIELD. Or.. May 25. (Spe cial.)
