I met Miss Evelyn Briggs at a so
ciable of our church during the winter,
nnd it occurred to me that she was the
girl I had Deen looking for. She didn't
give me any encouragement; but. you
know, "faint heart ue'er wou fair
lady," and 1 concluded when the spring
cauie on- to go down to the Briggs'
country place and call on her. I sent
up my card, and she obliged me to
wait some time before she made her
appearance, but when sne did she was
quit# cordial. 1 took courage at this,
because, you see, 1 hadn't had au in
vitation. Besides, alias Briggs' father
is a lawyer, and a well to do lawyer,
standing high in his profession, while
I am foreman in% children's waist fac
tory. Besides, Miss Briggs is highly
educated and intellectual, while I don't
make any pretense at that sort of
thing. I know my business, and that'®
all I waut to know. I can take hold of
a sewing machine and do more work
on it in a given time than any trio of
operators in my department.
. Well, we hadn't been chatting but a
few minutes when Miss Briggs looked
absorbed in something passing in her
mind. Presently she said: "Mr. Bea
die, I'm in a peck of trouble. Next
week we re to have the house full of
guests, and when we came down this
summer we found the rats had got
into our linen closet and made havoc
of our sheets and pillowcases. We
have the material for new ones, but
the woman we expected to make them
up has disappointed us. i was trying
to do some of the
called, but there's something tbe mat
ter with our sewing machine,
der if you could fix It for me."
''1 should smile," 1 said, pleased to
have an opportunity to be of service;
''that's just in my line. There isn't a

She took me upstairs to a sewing
room. There was a machine at one

,! *keu up with white goods. It looked
| IO i ,s if '*>ere were a thousand
yards. I Rot down at the machine and

j -'Why. the machine's all right," l
I said.
"Is It? Well, you might try It on one
°f these pillowcases."
She handed me the top one on n big
pile, and In n few minutes I had fin

while. Mother's not well, nnd I have

She didn't come hack. I worked
about an hour when, getting tired, I

her mother called her. and she skipped

soon, hut she didn't come. An hour
passed, and I began to think up an
other excuse for stopping work. This
time I concluded to break something
that couldn't he fixed. I took a stout
brass rod out of n window, curtain nnd.

holds the needle, broke it off. Then

FOUGHT Ul
Last of the Spanish Fleet at the Bat
tle of Manila Bay.
"Wbat was it like, that battle of Ma
nila Bay, do you ask?"
The thunders of heaven would have
been lost in its dln^ It was fierce and
fast, like the rolling of all tbe drums
in tbe world or like boltB of heavy sail
cloth lorn into sbreds by the wind.
What a picture it would make—that
battle, tbe last of tbe Spanish fleet, tbe
Don Antouio de Ulloa. Sbe fought,
sinking a foot a minute! Gun after
gun went under, and when tbe last
onset was made only her bow gun re
mained. Its crew, waist deep in water,
fought as though victory was crown
ing them, ft was theirs to fire the last
gun upon that eventful day, and we
cheered tbein as they sank.
These are the things men will write
about, but memory alone can pplnt a
picture so terrible" that the moon, that
old right watch of the universe, hid
behind friendly vapors that she might
not see the embers of war as they
glared through the portholes and spon
sons of half sunkeu ships, while ever
and anon exploding magazines would
tear the waters, nnd fiames of yellow
and red flaunt above all that was left
of Spain's jyrecknge.

battle won. 1 '— St. Nicholas.
