DR. LINES APPOINTMENT.

Rev. Dr. Lines said yesterday morn- ing in reference to his election as gen. eral secretary of the Domestic and For eign Missionary society of the Episcopal church, that he only knew of the selec- tion the night before, when he received a dispatch informing him that he had been chosen to that position. He had not yet made up his mind whether he should accept or not. Should he do so it would take him or any one else who should accept it entirely away from church or whatever other duties he might be engaged in. The headquar- ters were in New York, and while it would not be absolutely necessary to remove to or reside in that city vet the general secretary would have to give his time and attention to the work, which was of an important and respon- sible character. There were a great many things to be taken into consider ation and he could not yet tell whether he should take the position, If he should he could live in New Haven if he wished to do so, but he would have to give up the position of rector in his church here.
 A great feeling of regret was mani- fested yesterday among St Paurs church people at the fear of losing their beloved pastor.

Grand Opera House.

There are few Irish comedians who have a larger following among the amusement-lovng public than Dan Me CarthX, who will begin a three days engagement at the Grand Opera house tonight, supported by an excellent company. He will present one of his latest plays, "The Dear Irish Home," which has been making a great hit wherever presented. The new play is one of more than ordinary merit, and shows how versatile MT. Mccarthy is It Is not every man who can sing, dance, act, and write a play, and then play 1t successfully but all this the clever Dan does.

With Reason for Misleading the Father.
 we have tried for a long time to persuade papa that perhaps his diet had something to do with his ill feel ings, he used to laugh good naturedly and say why girls. I've been used to eating and drinking ever since was boy, I was trained that way, no, I fear some change has taken place in my body and 1 shall never be well again"
 We often suggested that he leave off coffee and tobacco, but he urged that they did not hurt him and were com fort; so we acquiesced until one day sister insisted on making the coffee F Postum Food Coffee and it was made that way for about 10 days until papa seemed brighter and complained less of his head
 That's it!" sister exclaimed, and from that day she served Postum alone without any coffee.
 Papa never detected the difference for we have learned the secret of making Postum to give it a prime, crisp flavor. It is easy enough; just allow it to con- tinue boiling 15 minutes, counting from the time boiling commences, not from the time it Is placed on the stove.
 We'll, the dear old soul seemed day by day to take on new life. He began to stay at the office later, and was full of fun when he came home in the even- ing.
 The proof is plain enough, that morn ing after morning, year in and year out we had been feeding our dear old gov ernor with coffee that is really strong liquid drug and 1t was gradually but surely killing him.
 When it was partially removed he got little better and when 1t was entirely removed. and the pure food coffee, Pos tum. served, his recovery was rapid We don't fool papa on many things, but we just had to this tinle for he was steadily and surely leaving us and We love the dear old man too much to leave anything undone that will keep | him here.
 It is woman's privilege, you know, to tease, cajole and beg, then ''finesse," if the dear old hard headed things wont l listen to reason.
