In one OF the most harmonious families
of my acquaintance-that is TO say, in q
home in which there is absolutely no conflict,
in which the HOUSEHOLD machinery moves
without Jar or break-breakfast is one of the
most enjoyable meals of the day; first, be-
cause it is always punctually served; second,
because all the family assemble at one time,
and third, and by no means least, because
the mistress Of the home understands the
secret of setting refined table. Flowers greet
the eye and even in later fall and winter
something in the shape Of floral decoration is
always obtainable, even if it be but an UMPIRE

1t depends, then, altogether upon the two
individuals making and maintaining the mar
rage whether it ia thing of blessing or of
banring. Two peoplewho are each naturally
unsetish, or who love each other sufficiently
to cultivate unselfshness, or who are unsel-
fish from principle, may make marriage a
state of beatitude, and two people who think
each Of bis or her own especial comfort can
make it worse than a purgatorial condition.
And that would hold true not only of mar
riage, but of any other association, bond, or
partnership.
Where husband and wife have learned to
forbear ever SO little, to strive for each others
joys rather than for their own rights, to re-
speot each others personality, then their unity
Is a bliss OF which the unmarried mind can
form no idea; they grow to have one wish,
almost to know each others thought before
speaking, while each can maintain sufficient
of that individuality which preveats stagna-
ton and affords variety and vivacitT, and
all the time they turn to one another with
that absolute assurance of sympathy which
gives to each all the comfort that a whole,
encrcling, supporting and sympathizing uni.

Said well known clergyman to me the
other day: MY experience is that, as rule,
clergymen are very cruel to a brother cler-
gyman who is under cload Just as women
are pitiless to woman III trouble, and for
the same reason. Some years ago clerical
friend of mine was accused of a disgraceful
act. He was not guilty, but for time ap-
pearances were against him. In fact, it was
morally impossible that he could be guilty.
And yet not one of his friends in the minis
try except myself stuck up for him, and
even | was oStracized by my brethren for
taking his part. In short time, fortunately,
his innocence was clearly proved, and then
his clerical brethren were very anxious to
show their friendliness to him. But he never
forgave them for their cowardice.
1.-THE fact is, the average clergyman is SO
afraid Of being compromised by scandal that
he becomes q coward in such cases. Had my
friend been business man, none of his bust
ness friends would have believed the charges
against him. But we clergymen are very
childish and womanish in many things. We
are credulous where we should be incredu
lous, and vice versa. If had the say in ths
matter, [ would extend the course of thee
logical students by putting them for yeal
or two in some good business house, whert
they could learn little of the hardheadec
horse sense in which we parsons are SO de
ficient. New York Tribune.

girl had betrayed her, but she was compelled
to believe it, for circumstances all pointed to
Dora's guilt
One night, through thinking SO much on
the subject, she had most remarkable
dream. She dreamed that while searching
under the counter for something she found
Mrs Harwich's lost pocketbook stuck away
out of sight in crevice in the floor She
paid no attention to the dream at first, but
when she had the same dream the next night,
she felt sure there was something in it, which
belief was confirmed when the third night
she dreamed the very same thing. To satisfy
herself Mrs Harper searched under the
counter, and after brief quest she discovered
the missing pocketbook in crevice in dark
corner Of the floor under the counter, the
identical spot indicated in her dream, where
it had evidently rolled of the counter the day
Mrs. Harwich lost it.
Mrs. Harper was amazed, both at her
dream and its strange fulfillment. She i'm
mediately ran to Dora's house and informed
her, as we have seen, for her conscience smote
her for the wrong she had done the child, and
she was anxious to make amends. Well,
| Dora May was Immediately taken back by
Mrs. Harper at increased wages, and her
character made bright before the eyes Of all
Brookville. The other errand girl was dis
missed; she had been poor successor to Dora,
and Mrs. Harper was only too glad to let heI
go and re-engage Dora in her place.
Mrs. Harper never tires of telling about hel
strange dream to every customer at the LITTLE
store, and Dora is treated quite differently
now by the people Of Brookville She is quit,
heroine. As for Mrs. Harwich, when sh,
learned of the wonderful manner in which
her missing property was unearthed, sh
made an ample apology to Dora May TO
falsely accusing her of stealing it. Perhap
the knowledge of what an excellent cas-
for lawsuit Dora had against her assisted q
much as anything in causing her to apologiz
for the gross injustice she had done the limo
cent girl. At all events she made Dora
handsome present as partial atonement TO
her mistake, and they are great friends. Sh
became interested in the May family, an
was source of great assistance to them. Th
, affair changed Mrs. Harwichs Temperament
great deal, and taught her much needle
lesson. Sire is not so hasty to jump at COZ
illusions now Dora's parents were esp
cially gratifed by their daughters vindic;
ton. Their strong sense Of religion told theI
that Mrs. Harper's wonderful vision, and tt
> strange way it proved Dora's innocence, ws
nothing less than the work of Providence
and they are never tired of telling how the
daughters reputation was 'Saved by
. Dream."-J. L, Mccarthy in Boston Bulge
