On what small hinges do world events swing. A shower of rain on the battlefield of Waterloo soft ened .the ground, delayed Napo leon's cavalry and gave Blucher time to come up and strike the blow that saved Wellington and crashed Napoleon. When through the Intrigue of Euseblus with Emperor Constantino the ''her etic'. Arlus was abont to bo re stored to power in Alexandria, Arlus, an era man, suddenly died; and thsrNlcene creed with its for mula for the divinity ot Jesus, was preserved triumphant. At Varennos a berllne stood tor six hours because : the ehango ot horses was at the other side ot the village, and fugitive Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, almost at the border, were apprehended and taken back to Paris and to the guillotine. In March, 1917, Cossacks with lifted sabres, rode down the people who stirred an gTlly on the Nevsky Prospect; and were met with (strangest ot all weapons) laughter! And a mon archy and an epoch fell crashing into oblivion. .Yes, on what small rudders do great ships change their courses Jerry McCauley, drunk, drifted into -an east side mission, was converted, and became an impas sioned champion ot Jesus Christ An annoyed American officer at West Tolnt borrowed a four pounder cannon and powder to shoot at the British ship "Vul ture", which had borne Andre to his rendesrous with Benedict Ar nold. This tiny bombardment forced the "Vulture" to shift her position in the Hudson with the result (aided by other causes) that Andre's plans were changed. he was caught and West Point and perhaps the revolutionary cause were saved. Sometimes these events seem fortuitous; sometimes we. acclaim them as providential. Look back over your own life at the forks in your road. See how many seem ing accidents there were which diverted your path. "Whither the impulse of the steersman willeth". Are we driven by our impulses or by our wills? These minor events which yet may turn the destiny of our lives. do they stir Just an emotional whim; or do they stimulate the will which has a developed plan. The steersman on a mighty ves sel is moved by no Impulse as he turns his wheel. He sets his course by the eternal stars. Through the darkest night, and through the deepest fog he drives his ship to some known port. Lost are ho and his vessel it he fol lows neither chart nor compass but only the impulse ot the mo ment. Circumstances', large or trivial. accidental or providential, may arise; but the man masters his destiny and shapes his character who reacts to these circumstances not on momentary impulse, but in terms of his well-defined life pur pose, lie makes tnese events a rudder by which to swing the course of his life to worthy har oors. T.ne intermediate course may be deflected; but the ultl mate port remains unchanged. HERE'S HOW ; By ,EDSON"f UQQlt? : ;, I I Mitt, XV 'SaSTCOOLS .

The lobby wu overdecorated with Corinthian columns and gilded plaster designs. As Mary stood waiting for the ele vator, a man and a girl, theatrical in attire and manner, passed her. Ia .deep, upholstered chairs two grim- faced men with black brows were conversing with scarcely a move ment of their tight lips. The ele vator, operated by a West Indian negro In a resplendent uniform, car ried her rapidly up twelve stories. Mary stepped out of the lift and saw, at the end of the short corridor, an open door. As she hesitated a mo ment. Landers appeared and nodded to her. The room, when she entered it, proved to be the parlor of a suite which was rather extensive. Through a side door she observed the rich furnishings of a small dining room. Buck Landers smiled with slight pleasantness. It was evident that he was not to go into any paroxysm of delight , at her appearance. His eyes, though, like steady gimlets, were observing her closely as she came toward him. . . . What he saw. was a delicately made young girl no taller than his shoulders. She was a slender little thing with hints of golden hair showing under her small tight hat; her smooth-lidded eyes, deeply blue, were a trifle shy. She came up to trouble wlta aim, a personal troay hla know what I sneaaf Mary knew precisely what he meant. She nodded. "That'll make It nice," she said briefly.
