dicate to Ell Ids disapproval. In due
time it came to pa..s that "all Israel

That Samuel was established to be a
prophet of the Lord."
Before the death of Eli the Lsrael-
it's suffered a severe defeat before
the Philistines and. thinking to s:.ve
themselves out of the hand of their
enemy. they fetched the ark of the
covenant of the Lord of hosts into
the camp. The effect this had on the
Philistines was to orotate them to en-
courage each other with "Be strong
and quit yourselves like men. O ye
PhUlatin..e. that ye be not servants
nuts the Hebrews. as they have been
to you; quit yourselves, like men and
fight." The outcome was that the
ark of God fell into their handa; the
Glory of Israel was departed. But al-
though the symbol of God's presence
was no longer, in their midst, God. the
covenant -maker, was still the cov-
enant -keeper and whertIver the Phil-

PIRESUEH AS A BOY.
Man Who Taught Him. Was a flow

A thrill of pride. tinged with" bit-
terness, to felt by J. W. Connor, of
139 High street Loudon, Ont., every
time he reflect, that the present
Prime Isvntster of Canada 1s William
Lyon Mackenzie King; pride because
he twelped !ay the ground work and
some part of the superstructure of
the educatluu which tltted the boy
King for his rise to stateemansblp.
and bitterness because fate didn't see
fit to make him . Couservattve. For
while itight Hon. W. L. M. King is a
Liberal Premier, his former teacher
is strongly entrenched ou the other
side of the political ltue.
Mr. Connor, who Is now 80 years
old and retired, taught young King
In the old Berllu High School, be-
ginning to 1887, and fitted him for
college in a year less than the pre-
seribed time. A record book whish
lllr. Connor cherishes coptalei_the

tered 1847. Took honors In Eng-

of the masters wade a complaint
against King and a boon companion ,
of hie named Qulrnbach. They were
sent to my once for discipline. hav- !
tug been advised in the meautiwe to
apologise. Quirnbach refused, but
King could take advise then as now.
He apologized with such eloquence
that I let both of them off.
"Another time young King and By-
ron Stauffer 'played hookey' to at-
tend a uominatlon meeting. On this
occasion f tried to make the punlsh-
ntaot a double purpose. al-
though I also told young King I
would have granted him permission
to attend the meeting. I set both of
them the teak of writing a report of
the speech they heard which they
considered the beat. King wrote a
good summary of his own father's ad -
drew, and later declamed it with tell-
ing effect to a group of fellow -stu-
dents to the laboratory "
Mr. Connor preserves names and
records of all the pupils he taught at
Berlin, and • perusal of the books
shows a big percentage of them to be
more or leas famous now.

At the first sign of a cold in the
head, melt a little Vicks VapoRuh in

Insert some in nostrils. snumug it

Another way is to heat a tin cup,'

if you were to question a law stu-
dent attending Osgoode Hall, Tor-
onto, as to his opinion of the chari-
table tendencies of Judge Morson of
the Toronto division courts, he would
be likely to start perceptibly, seat a
furtive glance around, and say, "Very
little chance."
The writer has quailed with others
before the biting remarks of the
Judge and thought him -\
grouchy old veteran like the others.
Then one afternoon as I walked up
Yonge street to my boarding house,
I saw the judge walking ahead of me
with his stick in both hands horizon-
tally behind his back and thinking,
as I imagined, of his law student vic-
tims of the morrow.
Three ragged little kiddies were
enviously peering through the glass
of a corner sweet shop. Suddenly
they were noticed by his honor the
Judge, and he est one of his snappy
strides in twain and, stepping over
to the lads, gave them a piece of sil-
ver. In my surprise I did not notice
the amount. It matters not.
"Monty" Mormon, as we called him,
had no terrors for me after that.
