FABLE or THE THREE CHURCHES.
How the Good Angel Christian EndeavO
Brought Them Together.

How the Good Angel Christian Endeavor
Brought Them Together.
Once upon time-a long, long while
ago, before the Christian Endeavor
movement-therew We're three churches,
built side BY side. Tall board fences
parted them the one from the other.
Each was conspicuously placarded, the
one with Eve, the second with us,
and the third with Our" thus sig
nifying to all beholders that the churches
belonged to the denominations then
known a. Weists, Usites and Ourians.
But the churches were empty. 80 the
Weist preacher stood in front Of his
church urging folks to come in, con-
stantly proclaiming, I'VE are the peo-
pler' And the Usite preacher stood in
front Of his church, continually crying,
"Come to Usr' And the Ourian preacl-
er stood in front Of his church, CEASE
lessly reiterating, "Ours 0nlyln And
in the pauses Of these calls they shook
their fists at one another.
All this, remember, was long, long
ago, before the Christian Endeavor
movement.
Now and then man would stop, at
tracted by tile noise, would look per
picked from the Weist To the Tsite, and
from tile Usite to the Ourian. then shrug
his shoulders and pass on his way So
the churches remained empty
But one glad day Christian Endeavor
came alOng-a beautiful, strong angel,
with the most loving eyes and the most
eager, outstretched hands-and he drew
these three men To himself, and they
held a little prayer meeting all together
in one Of the churches. it does not mat
ter which As they came out Of that
meeting, they all went to work and
pulled down the high board fences.
Then they tore off the three signs,
I'VE, "Us" and "Our. Then an
three took UP their old positions, with
Christian Endeavor, Oh the sidewalk i'll
front Of their churches and began to in
vite the people in And the Weist cried,
"Christ is the SaviourT' And the Usite
cried, Come to Christi And the
Ourian cried, Christ only r' And every
once in awhile they held another prayer
meeting in one Of the churches, turn

And You should have seen the people
fiocking in Some to this church, some
to that, according to their individual
preference, but all to Christ And often
the crowds were SO large that they had
to 70 forth and hold union outdoor
service in the square TIL front And so
the three churches flourish to this day.

British sRed coats.p

We never think Of her majesty's sol
diery as being attired in other than red
coats and brass buttons, but there was a
time when the regulation uniform Of
British soldiers was entirely different
from what it is today. In the time Of
Henry VIII the colors worn by the army
were green and white; later on, white,
with a red cross ON the breast. The first
mention Of the "red coats, which We're
so detested by the American patriots Of
Revolutionary times, is found in a cir
cular letter by Edward, earl Of Derby.
1t bears date of 1917, and is to the effect
that hereafter all foot and light horse

Perhaps the most startling suggestion

his Christmas present the year before.
She wished to know what thing she
should do in order that she should not

The fashions change with such kalei-
doscope rapidity that it gives one that
tired feeling to try to keep up with
them. Don't Try just get something
good and becoming and wear it ont,
fashion or no fashion, and don't trouble
any further about it. This is the only
way to bo happy. 1t is time the Ameri-
can woman was asserting her right to
dress as sle pleases, as well as to think
as she pleases.

Miss Weeks was recently thrown from
her horse, and the skirt Of her riding
habit caught in the horn Of her saddle.
The horse dragged her along head down
ward and finally trampled her under his
feet. If Miss Weeks had been riding in
the only rational way and wearing the
only safe and convenient dress for riding,
her horse could not have thrown her,
her dress could not have caught in the
saddle, and she coald not have been
dragged along under the horses feet.
Gloucester County Democrat. (Woodbury, N.J.) 1878-1932, 1895-07-18

Tt always gives me that tired feeling
to hear man laying down the law
about woman's sphere What does lie
know about i'll? What can he know about
it till he himself becomes a woman? 7
wish sornc men could be women awhile.
There would be more fun than this poor
old world has ever seen yet.
