I' heard a little storytoday that makes ltem conscience, Christianity and self ajasement are something more than Inere words, after all, and it Is so nice, too, to heir such story of distress-, ingly rich woman. The heroine and the Is t geunine heroine none other could do as the did ia the wife of a magnate whose wealth Is Inestimable, whose income it. incalculable She lives in one of the most gorgeous mansions wf the metropolis and la famed tor her piety and charity. But the was not al ways rich indeed she once was actual ly poor. When the was a girl at board ing school, the had probably less pock et money than any of her classmates. One time a collection was taken up among the girls for a most worthy and needy object. Our young heroine longed to help, and she was to ashamed not to be able, A schoolgirl's pride is a dis torted, disproportionate sentiment any how. So, in a moment of temptation and weakness, she stole f S from her ohnm, who Vs the richest girl in school. I The latter, with the happy careless ness of a petted child, who has more than she wants, never even missed the money at all. The end of the term came, and the girls all went home. The rich girl never returned. She became lost i tq the ken of her former schoolmates all save one, who remembered her with agonising and conscience quickened dis- j tinctness. Finally, in the course of many yean, i pur poor heroine had become the wife or one or America s ncnen men, and one day she heard that the girl she had never relinquished the search for was poor, ill and a widow, with little chil dren. She hunted her np, invited her to come to dinner, and without telling her invited also SO of the friends whose friendship and esteem she most valued, ampng them her pastor. After dinner, to every one's amaze ment, she bad every servant summoned to the drawing room. There, before ber most cherished friends and her paid subordinates, she confessed her Dett pilfering of 80 y- tilore md ended hit confession simply, "But 1 will pay hack the money tonight." Therewasn't a dry eye in that stately drawing room when she finished, bnt only very few who listened to herself abasement know that the widowed friend took home fl, 000 for the pilfered $3, and bmidea a promise of education and subsequent care for her three little children. Don't yon think my heroine bad in her the spirit of the early martyrs or, indeed, I believe it a higher type of son)! Hod bless herl Mollle Knickerbock er in New York Recorder. PREHISTORIC REMAINS. The- Hkeltton of Another Tall Alun Reoaut ly Dlaeovared Men Ucntans. Fresh discoveries of human remains, probably prehistoric, were found this week on the Italian frontier near Men tone. Two years ago the skeleton of a man more than 8 feet high was unearth ed at the same spot nnder tho direction of an English archaeologist. Workmen in a cave recently uncovered several slabs of stono which seemed to form a part of a dolmen. Tbo earth contained many hones of animals, broken evi dently, for the extraction of the mar row, and there were indications of fire close by. Several small, pierced shells which once formed a chaplet and a ow of stag's teeth were near at band. The skeleton of a man 0 feet U inches in height was lying on itn back. The legs were crossed below tbo knee. The right arm was extended and bent back ward toward the head. The hand was clinched. The left hand was placed nnder tho head. The same position has been frequently observed in early neo lithic burials, A fine crystal of carbon ate of lime besidA the skeleton was prob ably a talisman. Further excavations in the cavern revealed innumerable bones of animals, notably a tine verte bra) of a mammoth. Still another find is a flint implement, which appears to be of palieolithio age.

The girl promptly turned the letter over to the proper au thorities, and Beerpass was arrested for ending obscene matter throngh the malls. He acknowledged sending the letter, but claims he cannot be made to suffer for it, as every sentence in it it a quotation from the Bible, which be readily proved.
