In good years it followed the rule of a dollar for .dividends and a dollar for property. It was a good sound rule and if it had not been followed for so many years that great property would never have attained to its present ■piettdid development. ' i . , | ' . - I The chief need of the times is to j bring back railroad prosperity once ,1 more. That means the restoration 'i of railroading to the plane of a | profit-earning industry, in order \ that it may again attract' adequate capital for the proper expansion of lines and facilities. For the present a rest politically is the most urgent requirement in that direction. Prosperous railroads, efficiently | ■operated, are a public necessity and the railroads need only the oppor- | yt unities that are freely accorded-to other forms of enterprise to resume ,j their old position of leadership in the progress arid advancement of the country.

Ho had the wholesome influence of a" Christian home, for hi# mother was a godly woman, There Is no heritage to be compared to that of a godly home. -Nothing has such a far-reach­ ing Influence upon the life of a young man as the memory of a praying moth­ er. Even tvhen ft was so perilous to he known as a follower of Jesus, she was not afraid to have a prayer meet­ ing in her home. II. Mark With Jesus In Gethsemftno (Mark 14:51, 52), At the sight o f the Roman guard, the disciples “all forsook Him and fled." This timid lad still followed the Lord till laid hold on by the young men. He then fled, leaving behind him his linen garment. This Getb, semnne -experience doubtless had a decided effect upon his life. 11 ir Mark a Servant of Paul and Barnabas (Acts 12:25-13:5). -Mark was with the company when Peter told of his wonderful release from prison. This, doubtless, made a great impression upon him and. was the beginning of his desire to accom­ pany the missionaries of the cross. He was not a missionary on the same footing as Paul and Barnabas, but an attendant upon them to look after their* needs.- IV. Mark Deserting Paul and Barns, baa (Acts 18:13) We are not told the cause of this desertion. Three conjectures, one or all of which had a hearing upon his action, are offered. , 1, Homesickness. His home was of easy circumstances If not wealthy. As they Were carrying the gospel Ihto the rough, mountainous country, occupied 'b y rough, half-civflized people, the ,mettle o f this young^servantwns tried, -We ought not to condemn him too ' readily, fo r we know how trying it Is , to leave home when struggling against j the rough world, While sympathizing ! with him, we must remember that |duty Is stronger than the fender ties .o f life. The time comes when the sol- ! dler must spurn, the ties which"hind ■him to father, mother, w ife and dill- Tdren, in, response to the call o f duty. The m issionary must turn Ms hack Upon, home, native land, and friends in } his devotion to his Lord. 2. Disbelief in Foreign Missions. ‘ There was a common prejudice among <the Jews against taking the goSpel to the Gentiles. When he saw that these |missionaries were going to the “ re- ’ gions beyond," his prejudice may have ' caused him to turn back, j & Cowardice. The dangers before . them were not Imaginary but real. •The missionary today faces Va\vful dan­ g e r s : climate, wild beasts, deadly ser; ! pent* and insects, and savage and can- j nlbalistic men, However, fear is no -excuse fo r cowardice because we are [linked to the Almighty by faith, there is nothing in heaven or oh earth that can harm us. Courage is required of those who would'do the Lord’s work. ! V. Mark With Peter In Babylon (I P e t 5:13). * Some years after Mark's desertion, i when Paul and Barnabas were arrang­ i n g for a second evangelistic tour, ! they had a sharp' dispute over the question of taking Mark with them. ■Paul would not consent to Mark's ac- i companylng them, so “ they departed ; asunder one from the.other.” Mark went with his unde.

You know, when ahe took that craze to go to the city and be a painter, nobody thought very much about It. But, you see, Will Calder had jilted her—so they said, and I guess It's true—after her father only left her five hundred dol­ lars instead o f the thousands we all thought old Mr. Nash was worth, “ Well, she must o f been gone nine or ten years, X guess, and here she comes back—bought the old house, now—and she 'pears to be a famous painter, though none o f us knew i t Making her fifteen thousand a year, they say. Yes, Freeport’s certainly proud o f her daughter. "Oh, them pictures? Why, she paint­ ed them for me, Charge? Nothing. Pretty, ain’t they?

I don’t wonder she’s succeed­ ed." I was looking in wonder at flio pic­ tures, for, of.all the daubs I had ever seen, .these were the limit. Broad, flaring bands of color, conventional sweet things, girls’ faces and country scenes—just what would appeal to the unsophisticated. _ - i f these were samples o f Ellen Nash's work,, then Ellen Nash’s story that she was a famous painter Whs a lie, transparent to theimreon With the smallest knowledge of a rt ’ I walked up Urn hill to W ill Calder’s ptace. W ill was at work, bat his wife remembered me and showed me over the house .with pride: The living room was full o f Ellen's paintings. “Ain't they pretty?" Eald Mrs. Cal flew “I do think, Jt was sweet of her doing all these for us—and not a cent mind you—jest because She and WflU Used to be friends." She giggled, and. I f was clear that she meant that they had been some­ thing more than friends. But If Mrs, Thompson's; paintings had been bad, these were" positively vOe—the vilest daubs that I hod ever seen, perhaps the cheapest of cheap department stores might -have ven tured to offer them at a knock-down price o f a dollar ninety-eight, bat X doubted that, . Can't you see the things? The livid blues and browns, the splotches o f paint, the red lips and the cream-col ored cheeks o f the girls? The. cattle browsing pastorally in the,greenest o f .green grass? It hurt me, fo r r r a membered. Ellen, and I was on my way to see heiv I stopped a t the old place, It was Ellen-herself who opened 4the door to me. She was so pleased to see me, and I was as pleased to see her. She had grown refined, splrltuelle, I marveled more and more that such a girl qotild have- painted those awful things. I marveled more—1 gasped when X saw the.picture# on Ellen’s walls, recognized two* o f these as the work o f the young woman painter, Miriam Keith, who had been the rage o f the season. It was evident that Ellen .ap­ preciated good pictures. Then how, In heaven’s name? . . , ■“ It was Ellen who opened the sub­ ject, after I had told her that I had called on Mrs. Thompson and Will. “I suppose you are wondering about the paintings?" she asked, slowly, “Well—yes," I ventured. “I," said Ellen, "am Miriam Keith” I sat gasping at her like a stranded fish. "You see, when I went to New York I chose to take another name. I want­ ed nothing to remind me o f this hate­ ful place. I was an unsophisticated girl, i—i succeeded at last. Then, when I was rich, I fe lt the longing for a country place, and I bought the old house. Here 1 shall remain Ellen Nash. In New York I am Miriam Keith. Now—do you"nnderstand?” She said no more, bat suddenly I did understand, I saw the scorn and the revenge o f the artist upon tlie people who had gossiped about her, lied about her. These pictures were on their own level, and she had taken a clever and such a subtle revenge upon them I And upon Will Calder, most o f all, filling np bis house with those trashy daubs. I wondered whether there had been anything in that story about them? Certainly the man could be nothing to her now. In a way I thought It was a revenge upon Ellen's own youth. Winds Watch by Walking. A Californian possesses the only waich In the world that winds Itself. He bought It years ago in the East, and It was so. old then that he could not ascertain when It was made. It was represented ns a square French timepiece, and it Is so arranged that a lever oscillates with every footstep the owner takes, thus keeping the spring tightened. It is contended that It is the only watch known that winds Itself by the Jar occasioned In walk* log. It keeps accurate time despite its peculiarities o f construction, and it has survived several good cases. A t present It Is encased In gojd, A key is provided for emergencies, so that if the Owner should be 111 or be obliged to refrain from walking for several days, the timepiece can be wound. Modesty.

"There 18 no detail o f a woman’s dressAhat, as a rule, she buys so unlntelllgcntly, and adjusts so clumsily as she does her face' veil/’ he discoursed, as he stood behind the triple mirror and watched the saleswoman drape one filmy cloud and then another across my hat brim. “And yet the whole effect of a smart street costume cun he made or marred by this accessory. I f a veil Is dainty, delicate, and becoming, It can ‘cover a. multitude of sins/ " he hinted, more purposefully than gallant, J must ad­ mit. Perhaps a few suggestions about veils, as he gave them to me, may help yon mnke your next one look bet­ ter and last longer. I f you are a large woman, with pro­ nounced features, you flmy select veils with striking patterns and look very well in them. But haven’t you often seen a small woman with delicate fea­ tures almost hidden under the heavy patterns that would have been very becoming to her larger sister! I f you have dainty, small features, you should choose a veil with a small, delicate design. And again, when you wnpt a veil to go -with a small, close-fitting hat; choose a single-mesh v e il; while with a large lmt, where the brim is further away front the features, the more fig­ ured patterns are quite smart and at­ tractive, 4 . Care must be used when -selecting a veil that contains spots or large fig­ ures that these are placed so they do not hurt the eyes. - I f the figures are pluced fa r enough apart, the ,veil can always'be adjusted so that (fie spots do- riot come directly In front of the eyes.".' I f you want a filmy veil, you must expect to pay enough to g e t ,« retUly fine mesh. Those made out o f stiff­ ened cotton are cheaper, but-ho sticky dressing soon comes off, and then the veil easily crumples and tears. Some women plan to buy these cheaper veils, wear them a few times, and throw then* away. But the better veils cost only about twlee as much, while they wear three or four times as long. Haying selected your veil carefully, learn to take • ire of It. Don't leave it on your hat fo r days together. Pin­ ning the veil over a pasteboard roll will keep It from getting stringy.
