QUITE A VACATION.

Pastor Mutch of the Howard avenue Congregational church and his family were away two weeks in August. There was no effort at sightseeing. but simply the quiet restful enjoyment of the ample hospitality of an old friend in Berks county, Pennsylvania. On one side lay a broad valley dotted with vil- lages and thrifty farms, and on the other mountain wilderness, at the summit of which the famous old mis- sionary pr. Muhlenberg used to sit and watch the eagles circling above him. Within sight are several large iron furnaces, half dozen noted sanita- riums, the city of Reading and the grave and residence of the famous German Indian agent and interpreter, Conrad Wiser. The smell of the woods and the song of the tree-toad and whip poor-will is luxury to those who rare- ly indulge in Il to break the monot- ony of the dust and the noise of the city.
