thing could be done to make receptions

helped to solve the problem. So the
child was brought forward. It looked
as though regular course of baptism
would dot good, and was glad to know
that it was going to get moistened up a
little in the face and brow.
But was saddened when after the
song service which the child introduced,
during which it gathered and ate one
lobe of the pastors whiskers, I was called
on by the host to make few remarks.

On Even Terms.

Two men sat down to small table In
. down town club q few evenings since
for purpose. It was to decide who pos
sessed the greatest capacity for white
wine. Each had the reputation, which
he studiously sustained, of being able to
stand more fermented juice of the grape
than the others, and their criticisms of
each other had become so unbearable
that interested persons determined by
opposing the boosters to end or mend
their talk. So a grand match was ar
ranged.
On the evening before the test a friend
of the elder contestant, who was prac-
teal joker, approached one of the wine
drinkers, and laying one hand confiding-
~ on his shoulder spoke thus:
"Look here, old man, I speak as a
friend. You've got reputation to sus-
tain tomorrow evening, and the other
fellow hasn't. Now, as friend, let me
insist that you accept the bottles of wine
which I, as judge of the contest, shall
prepare. They will be filled with water. -

though he won, was inglorious; but to
drink wine and perchance lose, that was
infinitely better. This decision resulted
in an argument that lasted half an hour,
and the wine drinker was then convinced.
On the eventful night the two men sat
down to the table, six bottles before
| them. The younger man was quick to
the fray; the elder despaired when he
tasted the pure, unadulterated water.
But he mastered his tastes and drank
with a conquering smile.
When the sixth cork was drawn, each
contestant stared at the other. This was
wonderfully conducive to cheerful feel.
ing, and so they promptly glared at one
, another. That made them rampantly
joyous. Down came one ponderous fist
on the table, and its owner, the elder
man, roared out: Fool. how can you
win? I'm drinking water"
A wan, sweet smile passed over the
face of the younger man as he family
murmured, $50 am I."-Philadelphis

Referring to this Chicago product re-

Colonel Francis Parker this school has
become SO great success that it is known

This is because the land, when pro-
NOTED from a pig pasture, was given to

Then long. embarrassing lull struck
the company. No one could think of
anything to say. In the absence of a
baptismal font ii mother had utilized a
large silver plated butter dish, and while
every one was scarcely breathing and
the silence was painful a little white
headed child with great solemn eyes said
slowly and softly to his sister across the
room:
"Will you pass the butter, Becky, if
you please?''
Then the conversation opened up again
freely, and we spoke of the fine shedding
we had had in Watertown lately and
how society was getting real gay.
Children are not born with such great
veneration for sacred subjects as they
might be, and yet they sometimes sur
prise us with their reasoning.

not hurt him, and he rather enjoyed it

l was in earnest, and then his heart
broke with a loud report.
At dinner he said nothing and ate very
little, and when it was over and we were
just about to leave the table he got up
in his mothers lap and said:
