A Word
tt was merely a wor4 you said dear
Merely a little word
But the angels bent to listen
And smiled as its bound they heard
It sent the ripples breaking
To the uttermost verge of the earth
And It made a proud heart gladder
And kindled a flame on the hearth
-
It was merely a word you said dear
You whispered It very low
But the one who held and kissed you
Was content to have It so
Far off were age and sighing
And close were life and love r
Two set out to Journey together '
And the stars were shining above

- ThB Blue Carpet
BY FANNY BURLING
(Copyright 1902 by Daily Story Pub Co)
The last amen floated ont from the
vestry over the kneeling: people
bowed forward like a field of wheat
before the wind Upon the high altar
the 'acolyte was smothering out the
tall candles and to the rumble of the
organ the congregation — that is 1 all
‘hut the Ladles’ Aid — pulsed decorous-
ly down the crowded aisles to the
‘day-lighted doorway
But the Ladies’ Aid poured Itself
' Into the vestry as a green and gold
snake pours itself into Its hold and
no longer awed by the sacredness of
the sanctuary demanded In a chorus
of arpeggios and every tone of the
scale “Where Is the carpet ?“
"The carpetT” echoed the abstract-
- d rector his spirit still uplifted from
' his strenuous exhortation to his peo-
ple to be good to live the higher life
“the carpet?” ’ 4
“Yes yes the carpet? ' Our car-
pet! It was here last night!’’ sang
the chorus InharmoniouBly
Their rector’s thoughts slowly set-
tled to earth "The new blue carpet!
The workmen finished putting it
- down at six o'clock yesterday! Who
moved all those heavy pews and took
It up again before morning! Who
took up the carpet?” rolled forth the
chorus antlphonal and feminine
The beautiful blue carpet which
bad been sewed for and sung for and
cooked for In Ladles’ Aid meetings
and muslcales and rummage sales and
fairs all winter long their beautiful '
blue carpet which had been finally
selected and paid for amid much ar-
gument and at last had been laid
upon the church floor with the care-
ful supervision of the entire Ladles’
Id in conclave assembled only the
day before their beautiful blue car-
pet had been spirited away in the
night
That sunshiny ' Sabbath morning
they had entered the house of wor-
ship not one missing to tread not
npon a soft blue brilliance but upon
a noisy bare floor The ladies’ Aid of
the Church of the Redeemer rubbed
its eyes and surreptitiously pinched
itself while the solemn service flowed
on -
“Thou shalt not steal” declared Dr
Herrington and softly the choir re-
sponded “Have mercy upon us and
incline our hearts to keep this law"
“Who could have stolen their beauti-
ful blue carpet chanted the Ladles’
Aid mentally “and grant that this
day we fall into no sin”' murmured
the people '“but that all our doings
being ordered by thy governance — ”
where was their carpet? Verily the
prayers of the Ladies’ Aid flew up-
ward and their thoughts remained
below
The president Mrs Frances Aimer-
on Warren resourceful and unafraid
asked the same question aloud In the
vestry where the clear mountain sun-
shine flooded the room with Joyous-
ness Seeing no adequate solution in
the group of fluttering ribbons and
smart raiment— certainly not fashion-
ed like unto Solomon’s even in his
glory she demanded the clergy the
deacons and the Janitor Thus It Is
that Woman however Independent
calls upon man In times of real stress
‘ and danger
The clergy placed himself at her
disposal likewise the deacons
Under rigid cross-examination the
Senior Deacon did remember that
coming home late the night before
he had seen a light In the sacred edl
flee The Junior Deacon who had
gone out to spy out the land returned
with the discovery of tracks of
had seen a light In the
sacred edifice
wheelbarrow In the soft ground be-
hind the church — though It might be
a bicycle
' Here the husband of Mrs Frances
Almeron Warren brought in Brown
the Janitor who was delivered to the
president of the Ladles’ Aid i r±e
was young with a suggested air of
good breeding about his small vein-
oua hands hopeless eyes and sensi-
tive Ups under the drooping soft
mustache Life had defeated him in
the rather uncertain fight be had put
up Mrs Frances A Warren’s bus-
band took charge of the case
“The carpet Mr Brown waa on
the floor as you are aware at six
o’clock last night This morning it is
gone You are responsible for the
care of the building Did you see any
light here last night?”
"Yes sir”
“Do you know who was here?'
“No one sir but me”
' “What time did you leave here last
night?” ' -' -
"It waa pretty late— after mid-
night” "Was the carpet here then?” The
Ladles’ Aid held its breath
The janitor did not answer Mr
Warren repeated the Inquiry
“What htve you done with the car-
pet?” “No sir' hesitated the Janitor his
eyes sticking to the floor -The
Ladles’ Aid remembered to
breathe while the president had to
grip her hands hard to keep irom
taking the case from her husband
: See here Mr Brown” continued
the prosecution "you’d better tell the
whole truth - What have you done
win the carpet?’’
Brown raised bis long lashes and
looked helplessly Into the blue brown
black and gray orbs of the Ladies'
Aid His glances clung to the tear-
splashed face of the secretary
“My wife wanted one so ma’am'
he murmured to the secretary
"Wanted what?” cut In the crisp
toner of the president
“A carpet ma’am” his regard still
anchored In the tearful sympathetic
secretary “She hasn’t any carpet
She used to have them at home be-
fore she was married She wanted it
ma’am and so I took It home to her
ma’am She don’t have much now”
The silence throbbed The secre-
tary wiped ner eyes and Dr Her-
rington went over and laid his
benevolent hand upon the young fel
low’s shoulder
Did you take all that carpet up
last night Mr Brown?” resumed Mr
Warren
'Yes sir” gulped the prisoner
And took It all home on a wheel-
barrow?” Oh no sir! -Just a part of it An
nie was so happy over It sir S'
tacked It all down to-day” added the
Janitor almost enthusiastically
“Where Is the re3t of It?” pursued
Mrs Frances Almeron Warren
"In the basement” the gleam of
sunshine vanishing from his face as
If a lamp had been suddenly blown
out
There was a flutter among the La-
dles’ Aid
"Do you know Mr Brown that you
have committed a crime and can be
sent to the penitentiary?” demanded
Mr Warren severely
The young ' fellow's sallow skin
paled greenish-white
"The pen oh sir don’t send me jo
the pen! What could Annie do with-
out me?” His gaze besought the sec-
retary “Thou shalt not steal’’ said the
president of the Ladies’ Aid lmpres'
slvely
A sweet spring wind from the blue
Oulrrh mountains against the bluer
Utah sky waved the gay plumage
of the Ladies’ Aid and a
murmur stirred among them
“Ladles” Interposed the rector “if
Mr Brown replaces the carpet at
once upon the floor just as It was
can we not forgive him this time?”
The Ladles’ Aid tinkled and flutter-
ed and nodded like a summer garden
full of birds
"Come Into my study my son”
completed the rector and he and the
janitor passed out
Whereupon the chorus and arpeg-
gios of musical voices tearful pity-
ing excited resentful thankful im-
mediately resumed in the only way
to resume
"Ladies” suggested- the subdued
president finally "there is the old
red vestry carpet — couldn’t we give
her that?”
On the following Lord’s Day the
red vestry carpet covered the floor
of the adobe house on Seventh West
rejoicing to the uttermost the heart
of the janitor’s wife while the feet
of the Ladles’ Aid sank Into the blue
softness of the carpet for which so
much had been sacrificed
A disregard of appearances
lack of sense — (or dollars)
Tbe life of a grass widow Is ncrtal-
ways green nor doe? It run to hayseed
DO IT Y0UR8ELF MY BOYI
Words for Younger Generation
to Ponder Over
Why do you ask the teacher or some
classmate to solve that hard problem?
Do It yourself You might as well let
some one else eat your dinner as "do
your sums” for you
It is in studying as In eating he
that does It gets the benefit not he
that sees it done In almost any
'school I would give more for what
the teacher learns than for what the
best pupil learns simply because the
teacher Is compelled to solve all the
bard problems and answer the dlffl
cult questions for the lazy boys
Do not ask the teacher to parse all
the difficult words or to assist you in
the performance of any of your duties
Do it yourself Do not ask for even
a hint from anybody Try again
Every trial Increases your ability
and you will finally succeed by dint
of the very wisdom and strength
gained in this effort even if at first
the problem Is faf beyond your skill
It is the study and not the answer
that really rewards your paths
Look at that boy who has succeeded
after six hours perhaps of hard study
How his eye is lit up with a proud
joy as he marches to his class!
He recites like a conqueror and
well he may His poor weak school
mate who gave up that same problem
after the first faint trial now looks
upon him with something of wonder
as a superior The problem lies there
great gulf between those boys
who stood yesterday side by side
They will never stand together as
equals again-
The boy that did it for himself has
taken a stride upward and what Is
better still gained strength for great-
er ones The boy who waited to see
others do It has lost both strength
and courage and is already looking
for some excuse to give up both school
and study forever
WAITER’S CLEVER RUSE
Tip Was Violation of Club Rules but
He Got It
Robert Luce of Somerville the au-
thor and champion In the Massachu-
setts legislature of the Luce bill for
primary elections which has been one
of the features of this season's ses-
sion was recently In New York to
look after his business interests here
says the New York Times While in
the metropolis he delighted a party
of friends with a story about a certain
nameless club In Boston which has
strict regulations against gambling
A quartet of cluo members decided
to break that rule by a game of poker
for Bmall stakes So they adjourned
to one of the small rooms of the club
and called the old colored servant to
bring a pack of cards When he
brought them one of the members
queried
"John I suppose It would' be some-
thing utterly new In this club If we
should do such a thing as play for
money with these cards?”
The negro scratched his head and
deliberated finally answering:
"Boss I'se been wlv dls club a long
time and I’se seen many things”
“Yes but what have you seen?”
“Ise seen ebry rule ob dls club
vl’lated ’ceptln’ one”
“What rule is that one?”
"De rule ’gainst gibbin' tips to de
serbants”
And straightway that rule was re-
lieved of its lonesomeness among Its
fellows
Had Many to Come
During the progress of a Prohibi-
tion wave that swept over Rochester
N Y some twenty-five years ago the
excited popular feeling resulted In the
appointment of a committee of the
city fathers who were empowered to
investigate the local excise situation
and to whom was given power to
summon witnesses before them
Among those who were thus called
was the late ‘'Sam" Wilder well
known to all Rochesterlans as a citi-
zen of wealth and high social position
pa a men of the world In the best
sense of the phrase and as a wit and
good fellow generally After answer-
ing many questions bearing on his
personal knowledge of the matter un-
der investigation one of the commit-
tee finally put forward this rather di-
rect query:
“Mr Wilder where did you get your
last drink?”
Quick as a flash and with comical
seriousness came “Sam’s" reply:
"Please God I haven’t had It yet!’
Her Sad Fate
She once was the queen of her fash-
1 ion-crazed set the fairest young
quail In the covey
picture of beauty aud eye-dazzling
style with eyes most expressively
dovey
Her walk was a sweet revelation of
grace a soft dreamy poem of
motion -
Her form undulating In willowy
curves as smootn as the swells of
the ocean
Her hand at the terpsichorean blow-
outs was sought by the masters of
dancing
Her cling In the dreamy embrace of
the wals they said was just Bira-
ply entrancing
But now In seclusion she wrestles
with pain a truly disconsolate
daughter
Her beautiful suburbs In bandages
swathed The ping 1' pong ankle
has got 'or!

Hindu Newspaper Work
A Hindu editor found it nocessary
to suspend the publication of his pa-
per for a fortnight without a warning
When the paper again made Its ap-
pearance It contained this amusing no-
tice: “We regret that owing to mis-
understanding with a rival editor in
which we failed to get all the best of
the argument It was necessary for us
to retire unexpectedly from the con-
duct of this paper for the space of two
weeks during which we have had
opportunity of devising certain im-
provements which we propose to In-
troduce into It The rival editor we
regret to report Is Btill confined to
his home”
A man who is a good fellow among
men generally Is questionable in his
dealings with women
FOUND flJEJ SIBERIA
Harry De Windt’s Land Trip Paris
to New York
RAILWAY PROJECT FEASIBLE
Seattle Wash July 30 — After trav-
eling for six months across the bleak
steppes and frozen mountains of Si-
beria Harry De Windt of the London
Daily Express is ready to report that
a railway practically connecting -the
Eastern and Western hemispheres is a
feasible project
Tbe expedition from which the party
Is returning was undertaken at the in-
stance of Alfred J Pearson owner of
the London Express Pearson Magazine
and two score of other publications
who wished to have a representative
make the trip by land from Paris to
New York a feat which bad not be-
fore been accomplished Mr De
Windt asserts that the overland jour-
ney was much more hazardous and
difficult than he expected and that be
would decline the trip again
The country traversed was covered
to a depth of several feet with snow
the road was nntraveled and rough
and dangers lurked at almost every
turn The members of the expedition
were treated with kindness in many
places but the natives were suffering
from famine and disease and could do
little if anything for their visitors
Many prosperous cities exist on tbe
map along the route which the leader
of the party had selected I’he people
of all the northern part of the conti-
nent have been attracted to the coast
nearest America as they can trade
with the American whalers and subsist
more easily than in their inland towns
and villages
For several hundred miles directly
east of Behring straits Mr De Windt
found many settlements of the natives
and here he found food and assistance
Had he not met the Americans here he
believes he could never have reached
Behriug straits and so his rescue
due to American traders Discussing
tne trip he said regarding his personal
experiences: '
“Because of the famine the reindeer
were thin and hardly able to travel
but they were far superior in bodily
condition to the dogs which we pro-
cured later We traveled by post sta-
tions located at intervals and usually
long intervals along the road We
passed penal colonies and little villages
of destitute natives whose condition
was indeed pitiable I once thought
the treatment of the Siberians by the
Russian government was not severe
but now that 1 have seen I change my
opinion Along the shores of the Arc
tic we ate frozen fish and walrus meat
Our jay was great at getting a little
flour and molasses near the end of the
journey' The cold was terrific The
Viscount's feet were frozen
“I should say that the railway pro-
ject is feasible though no railway will
follow the route we took It would go
several hundred miles to the south
ward and through a rich mineral
country”
