way of his profession. When the obliged

she finally got HIM to go to church.
Now mark how she was rewarded. In
stead of following the service he looked
at the congregation and noticed how
much more handsomely the other wom-
en- were dressed than his wife. This fact
pricked him to the heart as no words Of
the minister could. and the next day he
gave his wife S5OO and told her to go and
buy some clothes Need we enlarge on
