A Donation on Conditions.

There were score or more women
gathered together at Mr. Johnson's
house. Mr.. johnson is Il good-hearted
man, respectable citizen, though he
is rather skeptical about some things.
The women had just organized THE
foreign benevolent society,"" when Mr..
johnson entered the room. He was at
once appealed to donate few dollars as
foundation to work on, and Mrs.
Graham added ut would be so pleas
ant in after years for you to remember
that you gave this society its first dollar
and its first kind word"
He slowly opened his wallet, drew
out a ten-dollar bill, and as the ladies
smacked their lips and clapped their
hands, he asked lis this society or
ganized to aid the poor of foreign
countries p
"Yes-yes-yes y they chorused.
Yos--yes !"
"Well, now." said johnson, as he
folded the bill in tempting shape,
''there are twenty married women here.
If there are fifteen of you who can make
oath that you have oombed your chill
dren's hair this morning, washed the
dishes, BACKED the cook stove and made
the beds, I'll donate this 80
II have" answered two of the crowd,
and the rest said "Why, now, Mr..
johnson p
If fifteen of you make oath that your
husbands are not wearing socks with
holes in the heels, this money is yours"
continued the wretch.
"Just hear him Y they exclaimed,
each one looking at the other.
'If ten of you have boys without
holes in the knees Of their pants, this
* goes to the socicty' said johnson.
Such a man p they whispered.
"'If there are f7e pairs of stockings in
this room that don't need darning I'll
hand over the money!" he went on.
"Mr. Johnson" said Mrs. Graham,
with great dignity, "thc rules of this
society declare that no money shall be
contributed except by members; and as
you are not member | beg that YOU
will withdraw and let us proceed with the
routine business"
