Ev ery one In magazine circles hereabouts knew him, and most had had a per son»! experience or two. Somehow ev ery story Illuminates the man. They are uot merely humorous tales, but through them one catches a glimpse of his characteristics, his broad humanity or hfs generosity or hts love of the city. Robert H. Davis, the mngazlne man. re- lati-d that on one occasion he went a-visiting with O. Henry down on Long Island. “It was a very hot day.” said Davis. "We had climbed an everlasting hill. Another greater hill stretched before as Tlie sun was a disk of brass, and dust und bent aud clicking insects rose from tlie ground We sat on a fence to rest. “ ‘Is there anything else I can show you?' 1 asked him. " 'Yes.' said Henry, wiping bls fore head 'Show me a return ticket to New York.' “On one occasion he had promised to spend the week end with Gilman Hall at his country place in Jersey. Mr. Hall hnd invited him several times. When Henry finally accepted Hall gave him the most precise directions. "Take a 3 o'clock train on Friday afternoon.' said Mr. Hall, 'and 1 will meet you with the carryall at the sta tion." “At 11 o'clock on Friday morning Mr. Hall was called to the telephone in his country home The boy at the rallroud station droningly Informed him that there was a telegram for him, signed 'O. Henry.* •• 'Read It.' commanded Mr. Hall, and the boy’s sleepy voice tmzzed over the wire. "'New York." he read. ‘Twenty-third street substation. Western Union Tele graph company, 10:30 a m. Addressed. Gilrnau Hall. Far Out, N. J. Dear Hall—I have missed the 3 o’clock train. Signed. O. Henry.’ "Neither Henry nor Hall ever refer red to the telegram or the evaded visit In subsequent talks.”—New York Let ter to Cincinnati Times-Star. His Rars Old Painting. Speaking of fake antiques and forg ed paintings an art amateur said: “There is an American who bought a Raphael in Rome some years ago. The Italian law prohibits the exporta tion of masterpieces, and the American hail the happy idea of getting the Raphael painted over. This was ac cordingly done. The rare old painting reached New York in the guise of a | modern snow scene. "Then the restorer, under the watch. ’ fill owner's eye. set to work on It. , With a nponge dipped in turpentine be I proceeded to rub the snow scene off. He sponged it off readily, but tie spongv^l a bit of the Raphael off. too— and. behold, underneath the Raphael a portrait of Marconi was revealed."— Washington Star. The Dutch at Church. Men still wear tbetr huts In church in many parts of Holland. Moreover. 1 smoking in church Is not considered irreverent by the Dutch when service [ is not In progress, and the minlslers themselves Indulge In this practice. Altogether, according to a recent vis itor. "the Dutchman has a very com fortable form of religion. You keep your hut on In church and that saves iou many a chill: you talk freely and 11 your natural voice, not In a whis per; you have a neat housemaid in a white cup mid apron (and nothing la more cleanly and charming than a Dutch serxmit maldi to show you to your seat or to offer you a chair; you haie nice drab pews of painted deal all around yon nud a cheerful two decker pulpit above.” Slow Development In tho Ch-Id.

AN OPTIMIST’S APHORISMS. Men arc beginning to see the value of living in the moment. That is a poor human soul that can only be beaten into comely shape. We have to be trained by fate or life- or God. if you will let me say so—to put higher and higher quality into our Joys. This is a fearsome and awe some world, and out of its dan gers anti ditlli'V.lties a man makes ehara« tar and courage. As one looks around at life one sometimes feels that the first virtue and the last, the one in dispensable quality for living this human life. Is just courage. Courage Is the virtue of the strong, fortitude the virtue of the miserable. Courage Is strength in action: fortitude Is strength In endurance. Courage Is the masculine, fortitude the feminine virtue. The brave soul has three chances to one. More men have suffered through Ignoble fear than through all the maladies of earth. Joy never leans on what hap pens. but on what is. It would seem that only spirit ual gifts can be equal.—Lou!.~.e Collier Willcox In "The Road to Joy".” Lodge and Professional ; = Directory = £ Famous A Pr»f«r»nce.
