A Queer Way of Choosing . Wife.

1t has remained for a young clergy
man, missionary, to take the palm for
phlegmatic choice of a wife. Having
decided that it would be advisable to be
accompanied to the mission field by a
wife, he undertook to select her with
his head, not thinking it necessary that
his heart need be considered in the mat
ter. He first made a list of attributes
desirable in the wife of a missionary;
then, as he went about with the differ
ent young women of his acquaintance.
he watched for the development of any
characteristics corresponding with his
record.
When he discovered any he marked a
point opposite the young womans name.
When the time came to make the choice
he offered himself to that young woman
who had achieved the highest percentage
in this unique table, and, alas! was &C
cepted. The only redeeming feature of
the transaction is his admission made
some years after his wedding to friend.
My wife" he says, was never courted
before her marriage, but she has beeD
assiduously since. New York Times.
