USED STRING TO STIR ANGER Twine Swung In Air, London --man Explained Indicated Other Cab by's Brother Was Hanged. The conversation turned on the wonderful pungency and power of In vective of the ojd-tlme London 'cubby ns narrated by Charles Dickens In "Pickwick Papers" and by other au thors of that and a nub.sen.uent time. "A few years ago." said l)r. John 11. Oliver. In the Indianapolis New. "1 paid my second visit to London. The cabb and his horse had passed mvuy. The horse-drawn omnibus1 was no ;nqre. the petrol-driven bus haying taken Its place. told a Urlton whom Jtai over thefts that liked to, sit on the. outside next the driver, that I found, him a most Interesting charac ter. " 'So do I,' said my Urltlsh acquaint ance, 'but he Is not at all as Interesting as his predecessor of the old fashion. I was seated beside one of these old time drivers going through a street crowded with vehicles when a bus coming from the opposite direction was lu collision with our bus. The wheels of the two locked and then the highly ornate invective between the two drivers began. It was the perfect flower, yes, the full fruitage I thought of profanity and abuse.' "I5ut I was mistaken. There wus more and worse to come. When the wheels had become unlocked and we were slowly moving away, my friend, the driver, drew from his pocket u bit of string and holding It above his head swung It slowly to and fro. "The other driver at once Jumped down from his bus and, whip In bund, struck at the strlng-shuker. The wealth of epithet he then used showed that all that had preceded It was as mild and kindly as the softest baby chatter. Our driver nnswered not a word, but as he drove slowly on continued the string shaking. " 'I wondered whut there could be In this simple bit of dumb-show to make the other busmun so frantically angry. Then my driver gave the explanation: " 'E didn't like it, did 'e? It was honly a bit of Joke, don't y' see. 'Is brother wus 'nnged last Friday," ' " Church Give Every Man. There Is a little French church In the heart of Philadelphia which has given and given to the great world strife, ever since the war hegnn, life blood and widows' mites, and In the face of poverty Is still giving, giving, according to a Philadelphia correspond ent. Not one man botween seventoen nnd fifty years old remains In the member ship of thd little church of 8t. Sauveur. All are at the front, some are with the French army, uome are with the United States forces, but all have gone. All are fighting for the same great world ideal, They have left mothers, .wives and Uttlt vm who do not complain, bat jswerarrerarse givV to.Uio lW .penny, not only for those they Ittv'Oi but for the rofjf'qf nil Mirroring. ' Nearly all upborn are wprkjng pen pie, but, In addition to the sjnigglo for bread and butter, they Ijnyn found the wny to adopt nnd Mippnrt four or phans In Franco.- In addition to tho Incessant knitting and sowing for tho little wnr orphans hero those brnvo women Jjuvp also found time to mnke nnd send co.nnte,ss woolen comforts nnd relief supplies' p tho war victims l Frflnoe nnd nolglutn, tho orphans nod tn? woundot). They also subscribed to the. starving Armenians. War Curbs Suicide. Sir Hernnrd Mullet, registrar gen eral of the Urltlsh empire, announced recently that suicide had fallen off strikingly In England stneo the begin ning of the war. The explanation Is that the national unity of feeling, tho subordination of, self and tho sharing of sympathy on all sides makes tho In dividual's personnl Injuries less Im portant and Induces him to forget his pwn desperation. Personnl Indulgences nnd excesses of Immorality, causes of Insanity and melancholia, are curbed and minimized imtiirnll; by the econ omies enforced, upon the populace. Discipline In eating, dressing, working has also a benellclal effect In keeping (he mind sane and free from morbid broodlngs. Would Take Glass Eye Back. Paul (Jury of Anderson. Ind., Is nil American, with the exception of a glass eye. The substitute optic Is alien. (inry tried to enlist lu tho United States marine corps at their recruiting station In Louisville, Ky hut wus re jected when his infirmity was discov ered by Sergt. O. C. Wright. "Didn't you know that tho loss of an eye would prevent your enlisting" asked the sergennt. "I thought It might." explnlned Gary, "hut this glass blinker Is the only part of me thnt was made In Germany, and I want to take it back." Ho was advised to mall It. THINGS THAT ARE NOT SEEN Much That Cannot Be Explained or UnderstoodPeople Have to Look On Frorn the Outside. "To speak irimkly, uucle, enn't bring myself u-bank njucj on a world that's all out 'of! sight," ,l,rt flo"'"11 Cranston with, Jaunty decisiveness. "I think I' can upilorntlind the point of view of the Illhor-Just a little, any how. It was tho natural thing to 'walk by faith' In those dnys, for there wasn't much else you could wnlk by. The primitive mind peoples the shadows with supernatural powers, but science has let In so much light that there aren't many shadows left. That's why faith seems to me like an anachron ism. The only way to keep It untouched Is to get back to the old, forgotten point of view, nnd look out on tho world Just ns If nothing had been learned in tho last thousand years or more." "I was thinking about Culver this morning," Doctor Greshnm snld, and his nephew raised his eyebrows In quiringly at tho sudden change of topic. "There must have boon a weak streak In Culver somewhere, although I was his chum In college four years and never suspected It. lie was ono of tho hnlf dozen fellows In our does whom T expected to mnke their mark In tho world. He didn't as you know. I've talked with some of his Intimate friends, but I've never been able to dis cover the renson. And yet there must bo a renson one of those subtle, In tangible things that seem often to mnke or unmake a life, but that tho keen probe of science can't quite reach." "I begin to sec whnt you're aiming nt." There was an accent of constraint In tho young voice. "Of course there's a lot we can't explain or understand. We're handicapped by hnvlng to look on from the outside." The doctor nodded. "Again," he said, "there's n wholo world open to you as an educated man thnt has no existence for Jerry Lomnx, It's not only open to you, but you've entered into It, nnd, In n measure, pos sessed It. It's very real to you, and you've found it engrossing and enjoy able. You hnven't a doubt about this world of thought, as we may call It, being Just ns real ns the grosser world of sense perception. And yet you'd find It hard to convlnco Jerry that there Is such a thing. The words wouldn't mean anything to him. He'd have to go In nt tho basement door und climb up, step by step, to whore you stand before he'd understand.

'T remember the rase of an old lady, a patient of mine, who was as sure of tho love of God as you are of tho law of grnvltntlnn. She'd been a bed-rid-den Invalid for 12 years, but she had lived so close to God that every dinibt had vanished. She didn't hnvc to got bnrk to the old. forgotten point of view, or mnke a shadow land for her God to dwell In, or forgot tho wonder ful things thnt have happened since the lUlile wis written. She Just found Poll snmeln)o who slp especially pi'eded lilin. perhaps, and then kept close at his side til) sho came to know hlin. I have often thought that God's presence was Just as real to her as mine was possibly mpru so. That's when I flpst began to see thnt I wm an outsider, ' I was a professing Chris., tlan, but I hadn't got Into thu Inner circle." "Ono can't afford to miss n wholo world, and think It Isn't there, If If the fault Is all with Ids own eyesight," the young man replied soberly.- Youth's Companion. Waifs Who Make Good. Everybody has read stories of waifs who got a chance and made good, wu mean In fiction. That they also mako good in real life, says tho New Orleans Dally States, Is proved by tho annual report of tho Children's Aid society of New York.
