"Oh yes, I'll forgive you, I s'pose," murmurs Prue. ,"You say you are sorry and never! will do Such a mean thing again. I'll forgive you, of course, But still, Nelly Baker," Prue says this with force— "You were horrid and cross—and I'll. never forget Some things that you said—I can just hear them yet!" "Of course'"I'll forgive you—don't worry a speck!" Says Mazle,, all dimples, _ her arm 'round the neck Of little friend Betty, "and don't you feel bad. I'm going to forget all about it.

Four- teen girls sat around a table in a Targe room, studying their lessons. They were members of a girls' school, which, Lakshmabai, a Christian In- dian woman, had started. Through the open windows they could hear the priests in a temple near the river, chanting to the gods to send rain, for there was a famine, All the girls were quiet and sad for almost all of them had relatives in the north, who were starving. Suddenly they heard a commotion outside, and the sound of men's voices, raised in anger, Then Laksh- mabai came in carrying a small child in her arms. She laidher on a bed, and sent two of the girls for, some broth. The others 'crowded around asking questions. Lakshmabai sil- enced them, and as she fed the broth slowly to the child, she told her story. "This little girl," she said, "is nam- ed Yogina. She, her father, mother and brother came to this city to get food. for they were starving. Her • mother and brother died on the jour- ' ney, and her father, Runnabai, brought her here. But the priests* tried to prevent him, 'and that' was the noise that you heard," Yogina was now able to speak,•and she said a few words in a - dialect which the girls could not understand. Then Lakshmabai told the girls to go out and leave her to sleep. So Yogina was laid on the most comfortable bell that she had ever seen, while the girls went out under the trees. Yogina slept for a long time and was awakened by the sound of sing- ing. She was much refreshed by her rest, and walked slowly out to the grove where the girls were standing around Lakshmabai. She was teach- ing them the Indian translation for "Jesus loves me," and Yogina thought the air very pretty though she did not understand the words. Just then Lakshmabai saw her, and beckoned to her. She came timidly up to the girls, who met her with smiles of welcome. They discovered that Ti tunaya, one of the girls, could speak the same dialect Somebody said "Go west, young man, go west," but this prettq. scon4, as Yogina.

Although the destruction in 1914 of the Town Hall of Arras with its beau- tiful Gothic Facade, eves an event which shocked the civilized world, the bombardment of the wonderful old Sixteenth Century houses facing it was almost as great a loss to French architecture. The street joining the "Grand Place" and the "Petite Place" presented a facade of Flemish architecture dating from the end of, the Sixteenth Century, • One of the old houses of cal"od haif. timbered construction was bu. in tee Thirteenth Century, the two . eres having been laid out about the are 1200. However most of the dweitiags were of stone, that material having been designated by a law of May 17, 1583. At the time of the Armistice seventy of the houseswere considered destroy- ed and all the rest were damaged, Pierre Paquet, architect -in -chief of the historical monuments of France, in, elsted that they be rebuilt. Enlisting the support of Paul Leon, then direct- or of Beaux Arts, the work was begun under State jurisdiction. Picture Post Cards Help. • The difltculties seemed insurmount- able. However, the consent of the 150 property owners was obtained and the work of reconstructing the facades began, leaving the interior arrange- ments to the owners. Picture post cards played a large part in the success of the work. They were consulted at all stages of the construction work when -archives falI- ed to disclose the exact detail wanted. All tragments of moldings and sculp- tures were collected,pieced together and-'numbered:'and' then incorporated in the new work. The new stone employed was treat- ed before being set In place in order to give it the same patina as the old fragments. The finished result to -day is a success from every standpoint and the old street with lbs arcaded lower floors sesame to have turned' back the hand of time. Tho work of rebuilding began in 1920. By the end of that year• twenty houses had been restored, A year later the number stood at sixty-five.. On the "Grand Place" there remain only a dozen houseeto be completed, Pre -War Prices.

Sculptors and painters are now en- abled, by the camera's eye, to obtain permanent records of reactions of the human body which bad been a matter of pure conjecture. Science now furnishes big business and the field of industry documentary evidence in the 'way of "stills" from motion picture films showing chemical reactions which in the end lead to a revolutionizing of the processes of manufacture. The acquiring of "form," so essential in many sports, like tennis, golf, base- ball, football etc. Is made easier and more efficient by means of the slow pictures showing every movement, Motion pictures of projectiles in flight from giant guns are now taken with a camera developedeat the Bureau of Standards in Washington. It has-- been .used for studying the effect of the blast on the flight of pro- jectiles and has been found very use- ful for the purpose,' the bureau states•: This blast is formed by the gases in the gun, which are ejected with great velocity as soon as the projectile leaves the muzzle. It completely sur- rounds the projectile during the first few feet of its flight, and with 'larks guns; its force be enormous. Photo- graphy has been found to he the only tho out any- thing method oe finding- y thing about it.

When this film is thrown on the screen by the ordinary projecting ma- chine the pictures seem to move ever so slowly. It is hard to associate the flight of a projectile Prom a mighty gun with -sn011 lethargic movement. Again, these ultra -rapid Pictures have brought revelations in medical science, as a result of which great peogress is being made in understand- ing human ills.' As an•example, the College of physicians and Surgeons performed an in New York Pelf experiment on a properly anesthetized clog. Its beating heart was exposed to the camera's eye, and the valves of the heart were plugged in five different ways, to stimulate conditions found in. various types of cardiac trouble' in humans. The behavior of the heart; muscle, the alterations of its beats; and its efforts to accommodate itself to the variant conditions, proved a stirring revelation. They also 'pro- vided a very important means of checking up on facts gathered by years of observation, conjecture, and the high-speed camera, scantily' clad, mare or less blind medical practice, in treating heart trouble. • ' Used in Medical Practise.
