DR.. Parker has just completed a book

probably, take him all in all, the most
remarkable, the best rounded minister
in his great denomination in the north.
Ordinarily he is wise, conservative, and
sound. We were surprised to see an
extract from him that seemed to be in
different to, perhaps even hostile to class
meetings that have proved such an I'M
mixed blessing to Methodists everywhere
III all countries, when there was enough
religion in the congregation to attend
them. The Southern Methodist bishops
i'll their q~uadrennial address eight years

III the church. They could suggest no
better way to raise the standard and
restore the tone Il volume of religious
life than by the truly religious. profound

this end. When we read that, we said.
it IS really a yelled plea for the r~estora-

The Old Man Was Cured.

TALK about curing people of bad
habits, ono of the funniest cases | ever
knew occurred ON the south side some
years ago, said Detective Thomas Nc
Quaide. There was an old fellow over
there who would insist ON fussing with
his wife, who would invariably give
him the worst of it, Then he would run
up stairs and hang out of the second
story window, holding to the ledge.
shouting like wildtire that he WAS going
TO drop and kill himself. OF course the
wife would relent and set up IA noise
that would bring out the neighbors for
blocks, and the man would be pulled
Ill tho window by friends.
This got to be coming too frequently,
and some of the boys who lived near,
and who had loosened several joints in
their spines Mt different times pulling
him in, decided to stop it, One fine day
ii came again. The old fellow hung out
of the window, shouting that he would
surely jump and end it all; the wife
came rushing into the street in Mysteries,
and the neighhors ran rs before to pull
him up, The first man who got there
hit the mans fingers with stick, max
ing him loosen his hold, and, to the
horror of all. he dropped to the hard
pavement with u howl that was pitiful
He was not badly hurt, but it cured
him of that bad habit n-Pittsburg Dis
