Fight It 0ut Like Pa and Ma Do.

A story is told of daughter of a promi-
nent person now in the lecture field which
is peculiarly interesting and suggestive of
unconscious wisdom. A gentleman was in
vited to the lecturers house to tea. Imme-
diately on being seated at the table the lit
tie girl astonishcd the family circle and the
guests with the abrupt question: where 5
your wife ?" Now, the gentleman having re-
Gently been separated from the partner of his
life, was taken so completely by surprise
that he stammered forth the truth. | don't
know" Don't know p replied the infant
terrible; "why don't you knowT' Finding
that the child persisted in her interrogato-
ries, despite the mild reproof of her parents
he concluded to make clean breast of the
matter, and have it over at once. so he
said, with calmness which was the result
of inward expletives "Well, we don't live
together; we think as we cant agree we'd
better not" He stihed groan as the child
began again, and darted an exssperated look
at her parents But the little torment weuld
not be quiet until she exclaimed Cam
agree Then why don't you fight it out al
pa and ma dol" Vengeance is mine,
laughingly retorted the visitor, after pa
and ina" exchanged looks of holy horror
followed by the inevitable roar.

At recent meeting of Baptist ministers
in New York an essay was read on "The
Best Financial Basis for Christian Churches"
which took the sensible view that congrega-
tions, like individuals, should not spend
more money in buildings than their means
would allow. This is another way of saying
that church congregations should be honest
enough not to incur debts which they have
no reasonable prospect of paying. A day
or two after this essay was published case
in point appeared in a sherif's proclamation
announcing the sale of a church for debt
of SlS5,O0O, secured by mortgage held by
a savings bank. 1t would be a nice question
to decide which was more reprehensible, for
a congregation to borrow such large amount
of money to be used in unnecessarily expen-
siye buildings, or for savings bank to lend
a large amount of moneyou church mort
gage,--Ledger.

The law of checks was plainly defined by
Judge Thayer, of Philadelphia, in charge
to jury, He held that before the endorser
of check could be held for it, it must be
shown that the receiver had presented it to
the bank on the day of its reception, or be-
fore the close of banking hours on the fol-
lowing day, when, if dishonored notice must
be given thereof to the endorser which
makes him liable for the same. But if the
holder of a check thus given neglects to pre-
sent it Tor payment until after the second
day of its acceptance, and it is then dishon-
ored, the endorser is not liable for it, and
the loss, if any, falls on the holder.
