Mr.. Chauncey Depew was talking a

upon the density of Englishmen in
the matter of humor Said Mr.. Depew,
laughing over some anecdote that
had just been related: Some years
ago / had to make an after-dinner
speech at the country home of a
genial and wealthy Englishman who
lived hundred miles or so from
London. l began by apologizing for
my lack of preparation on the ground
that the man who usually
wrote my extemporaneous speeches
had failed to put in an APP
pearance. Nobody smiled. l tried
again, and that attempt was no more
successful than the first In fact,
every effort made to interest and con-
vulse the gentlemen gathered about
the banquet table seemed to plunge
them into deeper and more profound
gloom, and l finally sat down con-

and travelled about the continent for
several weeks. Then l returned to
London and was walking up Regent
street when met the Englishman who
had been my entertainer in the coun-
try. He came up to me with burst Of
laughter. AS he grasped my hands
in his the tears almost ran down his
cheeks he was laughing so hard. He
exclaimed: my boy, that was q cap
ital joke of yours about your ex.
temporaneous speech at my banquet.
Ha, ha, ha! came all the way up te
town TO have a laugh with you about
it And he did laugh, Finally said
to him: That was very kind of you.
You must have come up by the slow

preston of deep amazement and ]
didn' see him for week. At the end
of that time he came up to me, laugh
ing all over and roared; BY Jove,
Depew, that was a witty thing you
said to me the other day. The slow

cd for livinga Christian life. 1t is
useful to ourselves,and it is the prime
way of honoring God. We glorify
more by endeavoring to become like
Him than by prayers and offerings,
by holy services, or learned essays
upon The divine character and attrib-

the more truly obedient and submis-

J. w. Faber says that every solitary
kind action that is done, the world
over, is working briskly in its own
sphere to restore the balance between
right and wrong. Kindness has con-
verted more sinners than either zeal,
eloquence or learning, and these
three never converted any one, I'M
less they were kind also. The con-
tinual sense which a kind heart has
of its own need of kindness keeps it
humble. Perhaps an act of kindness
never dies, but extends the invisible
undulations of its influence over the
breadth of centuries.

falling into an error in using the

is a correct word to use. There is an
