Her Husbands AppareI.

Saturday afternoon little old woman
who had come to town in q one
horse wagon, entered store on
Woodward avenue where gents fur
nishing goods are sold, and asked il
they kept such a thing rs mans night
shirt
"Certainly we do" was the reply, as
the clerk reached for box.
"Well, my old man was travelling
down Rhode Island last fall, and he
heard about 'em and saw one," she
continued. "And he has been half
crazy to own a couple. Things have
come to a pretty pass when men have
got to have one shirt for day and the
other for night, but Thomas is rather
childish, and thought I'd git him one"
"Most all men wear 'cm now," said
the clerk, as he opened the box. "What
price do you want to pay?"
'Well l Dunno" she mused, as she
picked up one after another and let
them drop. 81 didn't say wanted one
for myself, did I?'
"Why, no of course not. These are
gentlemen's night shirts, madam-three
different styles.
She picked up the plainest one, shook
it out, held it at arms length, and coldly
said:
"Young man, do you pretend to call
this garment a night shirt for a mani"
"Ies, ma'am."
"You do, eh9 You stick to il that this
frilling and furbelowing and tucking
and rufiling belongs on a mans night
shirt?'
81 do"
"Then you had better go TO driving a
sand wagon, yong man!' snapped as
she threw the garment down. sI'ye

There Is nothing in the world more
inexcusable than the toleration of rum
shops. They have not the least right TO
exist. They are conceived by desire
to get ones living without labor, be-
yond that of standing behind a counter,
and begotten by Willingness to do any
amount of harm TO ones neighbors.
Almost every occupation by which men
get their living has the semblance of
usefulness. But rum-selling has not
the faintest claim to any such quality.
The money that is spent in rum-shops
had better be thrown into the sea. The
liquids that are dispensed thera had
better be poured into the cutters of the
Streets The Churchman.

Converted by a Sweet Voice.

One stormy evening in October. a
burly, poorly dressed man entered
Jerry McAulcy's Mission house in
Water street, New York, quietly took
seat among the congregation, and lis
tened attentively to the short addresses
and prayers. When the low soft notes
OF the little organ foated up from a
corner. the man stood up with the rest.
Then the sweet, sympathetic voice of
the leader of the choir started the
hymn:

through him. lie who had spent thirty
days in the dark cell, laughed at the

and on Friday they were married in the
