He sighed as he gave a last thought to the pretty girl. He smiled as he glanced at the little cherub-faced child playing at the curb.

It is rather curious about those “Moros” that we are fighting in the Philippines. “Moro” means Moor, and the name was applied to these people by the Spanish for the reason that, like the real Moors of North Africa, they are Mohammedans. To the mind of the Spanish settlers in the Philippines, any people who were also warlike were necessarily Moors. As a matter of fact, these Moros are pure Malays. They came orig. fnally from the Malayan islands, fur ther to the south and west, and their ancestors were converted to Moham- edanism by missionaries of that faith who wandered to Malaysia from In- dla. They possess all the fierceness of their brethren, the Malayan head hunters of Borneo; and it is well: koown that the Mohammedan reli. glon has never had the effect to re- duce or tame the native fierceness of any people. These Sulu Moros are among the most fanatical Mussul mans in the world. Centuries of force on the part of the Spaniards has had no effect whatever upon them. The same rule which the Spaniards followed in calling these Malays Moors, they also applied in the name they gave to the pagan inhabitants of the Philippines, whom they called “Indians,” after the natives not of India, but of Peru and Mexico, from which countries the Spanish invaded these distant islands. The Peruvians, Mexicans and natives of the West Indles were called Indians. They were brown, wild and pagan. Conse quently, in the opinion of these con: quistadores of -limited ethnological knowledge, these people were In- dians. And “Indios” the pagan and Christianized natives of the Phillp- pines have remained to this day to the Spaniards. We call them Filj- pinvs, and in our spelling of this word, though not in that of the name of the islands themselves, we pay a tribute to the simplified Spanish orthography. “Man Your Automobile Ran Down.” ing at the curb uttered it. And then Arthur Perry awoke into agtion with all the agility and skill of his splendid athletic training at the call of courage amid peril. What had happened had come so quickly that only a practiced eye like that of Arthur could take it in at a glance. The little child had dropped the ball and it had bounded over the curb and rolled to the middle of the stone-paved street. Naturally the child had followed it. As the warning of the driver rang out the litt:e one, was stooping over to regain the pret. ty toy, all unconscious of hovering danger. Just at that moment an au- tomobile whisked around the cerner headed direct for the helpless being directly in its course. The turn of a second might have seen the little one crushed to a shape- less mass, for the chauffcur of the auto had not time to check the ma- chine. It was not three feet distant when on a slide, rather than a run, Ar thur Perry reached the child. There was just one thing to do, and he ac- complished it. With a rough, heavy push that caused the little one to cry out with fright and pain, he drove the imperiled infant almost to the oppo- site curdb and then—a shriek from the pavement, a sickening blow and the intrepid rescuer knew no more It was perhaps two hours later when Lillian Trevor reappeared at the scene { of the accident. She had turned from lthe show window in time to see the | stricken man selzed quickly by the 4 ;chulr.ur of the auto, lifted into it and | flashed away before any one could in- terfere. Then there was the haste | and exeltement of getting the rescued child and her hysterical sister home. De Rt SIEAM PRESSING CLUB f——————————— s :, Pressing and Alteraticn. Ladies Werk o Spsciaity.
