Barrie and Wetllock.

A London correspondent of the Boston Transcript writes thus of the reported marriage of the author Barrie: We all thought I ventured, ito see you mar ried and settled by this time, Mir. Bar rie, judging from the report last year."
 "There was no truth in that report" !" he answered. II believe they actually had me married, did they not?-that wonderful they for which there has never been any other namel But there was no such luck for me, unfortunately. However, I fully intend marrying some day, if only to have the convenience of using my wife's hairpins to clean out my pipes. You do think she would let me do that, don't you, if I kept her in pin money? But must try to ascertain her disposition on that point before commit ting myself irretrievably."

A Novel Check System.

The Fairhaven and Westville street railroad system has just adopted new scheme of identifying passengers Of late the company have been troubled by passengers giving transfer checks to friends, who used them and saved fare. To prevent this set of miniature faces is now printed on each check. The first is of smooth faced man, the second shows the head and face of mustached man. the third wears side whiskers, and the fourth has full beard. The next head is of a woman wearing hat, and by her side Is a woman wearing bon net. As each conductor punches trans fer, he punches one of the six faces, and only those bearing resemblance to the original passengers are able to use the identification checks.-New Haven Dis patch.

I cannot knit any more. I am very poor" Jesus says to her, Mother, would you like to rest?" She says, "Yes, Lord; that is what want-rest." Courage, mother" says Jesus. I will see thee through"
 She goes home. The next morning in the tenement house some one dwelling on another floor comes to her room and knocks. No answer. The door is opened. She is dead! The night before the chari- ots of God halted at thas pillow of straw, and Jesus kept his promise. He said that he would give her rest, and he has given her rest. Glory be to God for the height, the depth, the length and the breadth of such Christian comfortI Oh, that we might have such joy as that which inspired the men at the battle of Leuthen! They were singing a Chris tian song as they went into battle. A general said to the king, "Shall stop those people singingY' "No," said the king. Men that sing like that can fight" would that we had a singing church, a joyful church, a jubilant church, 8 comforting church, for then we would have triumphant church.
 An Up to Date Church.
 I remark, further, that we have here tried to build a church abreast of the times. It is all folly for us to try to do things the way they did 90 or 100 years ago. We might as we'll be blowing with Ehjah's crooked stick, or go into battle with Saul's armor, or prefer a canalboat to an express train, as to be clinging to old things. What we most need now is wide awake church. People who are out in the world all the week, jostling against this lightning footed century, come into the church on the Sabbath and go right to sleep unless they have a spir. itsd service.
