Speaking of the late William Tatvere
leads me to remark that. so far as 1
am personalty aware. only one of the
elassie stuttering stories about hire is
actually true. I had the boner and
happiness to reside at Newport for a
year or so ince, and at the time Mrt
Travers was a summer resident there,
ite certainly stuttered a good deal, but
he did not go around 'habitually dis-
charging Staccato WittiCISMS nt the
world, as you !night suppose he did
from all the stories you bear. But the
one story that 1 know about is this
one:
Travers was at a garden party one
afternoon when a young lady sold to
hem "What time is it please, Mr.
Tratverst"
Travers took out bus wateh, wobbled
his tmouth awhile, blinked and filially
said, "Italbe s -s -s -s -six We -au -a -clod.

WHEN PERIL COMES.
Budden and Extreme Danger the
Test of True courage. '
It is when the unexpected happens
that fatalism proves how fragile a prop
it is, after all, for human courage: The
soldier or the sailor can say to himself
when lie knows that he must take a
supreme risk in battle or in a storm:
"I ant powerless against the fate which
was decreed for me from the'beginning
of the world. If ray time has come, I
cannot bele it; if not, all the forces of
earth and sky and ocean cannot prevail
to harm me." But when without an in-
stant's warning a rock crashes through
a ship's bottom and the waters rush
into the gap, when confusion seizes the
entire company aboard. when the fog is
too thick for the captain to be seen or
the roar of the sea drowns the sound of
his orders a new test is applied. Then
it is that the courage which rests on
nothing firmer than a negation gives
way, and in his greed to save his own
life the stole becomes as a madman.
There have been steamship disasters
in which Men of humble station, of all
colors and faiths, have shown the finest
quality of heroism, and there have been
those in which the common sailors, all
whites and Europeans, have earned
eternal disgrace by their cowardice.
The point we are making is not that it
is possible to draw a hard and fast line
between one religion and another or
one race and another in the matter of
bravery, but that the affirmative sense
of responsibility for one's own acts, of
the difference between right and wrong,
between nobility and ignominy and of
the grandeur of duty well done at the
sacrifice of self, is a far surer depend-
ence in the presence of sudden peril
than all the stoical philosophers ever
worked out by the mind of man.

FRIGHTENED HIS WIFE.
Forty Cents Almost the Cause of
Catastrophe.
Before Mrs. Browley was married
she scoffed at the misguided girls and
women who kept personal accounts.
Her argument was that if you know
how much money you had and it was
all gone what was the use of piling on
the anguish by having your folly and
extravagance in black and white to
stare you in the face, especially as you
had no more money at the end of the
month than you had without an ac-
count book?
But since she has been running a
house she has achieved not one but
nearly a dozen account books. There
is one devoted to the grocery man, an-
other to the butcher, personal accounts
take a third, and so on till she spends
nearly all her glad young life balanc-
ing sums. It is a matter of pride with
her that they shall come out even, and
so there was woe last month when 40
cents refused to be accounted for. She
and Mr. Browley had a grave and L
lengthy discussion over the missing 40.
Each accused the other of frivoling the
' sum away and neglecting to enter it on
the proper book, "Sundries." Mr.
Itrowley insisted strenuously be was
not guilty. Mrs. Browley looked pain -
01 and urged him to confess. He left
for down town vowing vengeance. It
was late that afternoon when Mrs.
Browley was entertainIng a roomful of
aristocratic callers that a telegraph boy
appeared. The maid brought In the
fatal yeflow envelope, and at once the
bride knew her husband had been fa-
