Coming to the Point.


A good story is told of a Metho
dist preacher-and the storyis true
to the letter-who lived almost for
ty years ago. He was a bachelor
and we could write his real name
but prefer to call him Smith. He
resisted many rersuasions to mar
ry, which his friends were con,
stantly making, until he had reach
ed a tolerably advanced age and he
himself began to feel the need Of
or, at least, to have new ideas Of
the comfort of being nursed by wo-
mans gentle care. Shortly after
entering one Of his circuits, a mai
den lady, also Of ripe years, was
strongly recommended to him, and
his tiiends'again urged that he had
better get Riarried, representing
that the old lady named would
probably not refuse him, notwith-
standing bis reputed excentrici.

"There, don't anthwer now. I'll

On that day week he.resppeared
at the door of Miss P--'s resi-

the lady herself.
"Walk in, Mr.. Smith"
