not account for one OF the burners being turned

A group of well dressed and pros

a table in a famous downtown restau-
rant after luncheon a few days ago,
chatting on all sorts of topics and
watching the smoke rings from their
cigars float up to the frescoed ceiling.

into tales of business success, and the
eldest and most imposing member of
the party did his part by telling this

A Hotel Experience.

One day last week q guest at one of
the best hotels-it is perhaps Just as
well not to be more exact-was
awakened at an unearthly hour in the
morning by loud pounding on his
door.
who's therel' he asked. That is
not inst the way he put the question,
but that was its general effect.
Wake upl" answered q voice. Its
s o'clock, and your train goes in forty
minutes.
1T doesn't. I'm not going on any
train. Go away and leave me alonel'
This isn't exactly the language he
used. As a matter of fact, il doesn't
come within gunshot of it. But re-
duced to Sunday school English that
is the meaning he intended to convey.
Come along, now; come along"
continued the voice. Hustle or you'll
get left. They all swear just SO when
they're sleepy"
Get away from that door, young fell
low, or ILL break your neck" said the
guest.
II guess your wakin' up now" said
the voice, cheerily. Hurry up, or
you'll miss your bus; she goes in half
an hour"
With that the voice departed. Its
victim communed wildly and pictur.
esquely with himself until he dropped
of to sleep. He Bad no more than
fairly entered the land Of Nod before
the voice was back again.
Hi, therei Amt you up ye.i
Hump yerself now or you'll miss the
train"
II wouldn't do even 10 hint at the
wording of the reply. Suffice it to say
that it was SO earnest, so forcible, SO
circumstantial that even the bell boy
was convinced that he had made a
mistake. Again the voice departed,
and again the guest dropped off to
sleep.
Bang bangl bang! II was the bell
boy pounding on the door again. The
language of the guest was quite shock
ing to hear.
You needn't get mad" said the
voice, pleasantly. II amt calm you
this time. / just come back TO tell
you you don't want no train, after all.

Church and People.

We hear a great deal nowadays
about the diminished attendance at
church. AS a matter of fact. we $
pect that there is in most communities
as large a proportion of church goes
as in the more devout past times with
which such damaging comparisons
are often made. However that may
be, one thing is true: we do find a ten
dency ia this day to think Of churches
as a sort of Sunday lyceums. We are
a good deal in the habit of going TO
church with the object of being enter
tanned by the preacher.
Perhaps the neglect Of the worship
idea may account, in part at least, for
the difficulty of filling our Protestant
churches. The Romanists gather great
congregations at all hours and in all
weather. Ii is not by offering pulpit
attractions. but by pressing the obliga-
ton of worship. We may sneer at it
as superstition. A slight infusion of
the same sentiment would be whole
some for many Protestant Christians.
