Be Should Not Come Down to Their
 Level.
 The minister should be given to understand that his congregation ex- poets to share in the ripest knowledge he possesses, and will appreciate his most careful thinking" writes Ian Maclaren in the Ladies Home Journal. When he rises to his height on any occasion and breaches a great sermon, tt does not matter whether every per ion has understood every word or tome of them only about one-half. He ought to be told that all the members of his church are proud of him and thank God for him, and that even if ne were beyond them this was not be- cause ot obseurity but because of ele- Fation, and that they are pleased to Aave a minister who lives at such level. He must not come down to 'hem, but they must strive to rise to aim. It is a miserable business for a preacher to repeat the commonplace of his people in showy form so that the man in the street goes home con- graduating himself because he has heard his paltry ideas trieked out in a 'howy dress. It is the function of the prophet to lead his flock onward, even though the march be someone's through the wilderness, and they ought to follow close behind him and tell him that they are there, and that they will aot cease to follow till he has brought them into the fullness of the land of promise. Under those conditions a man will feel bound to read the best books and to think out every subject 10 its very heart; he will gruage no labor of brain, no emotion of soul. to meet the expectation of a thoughtful. broad-miuded people, and if he come at last to be a leader of thought whose words fly far and wide, then to this congregation will the credit be due who believed in him, and demanded great things of him, and made of him more than he, in his most ambitious moment, could bave imagined"

How to Make It Attractive to the
 Men.
 Fewer wives would sit lonesomely st home while their husbands roam else where in search of entertainment if more wives realized that home should be something besides clean place to eat and sleep in, says the Gentle woman. Men hate" women's tea par ties and large show functions, but they ike little dinner and supper parties. Many families refrain from entertain ing because they cannot do so on an expensive scale. It is, however, possi. ble to give small dinners and suppers that are both enjoyable and inexpen- sive. Ask people who either do or will like each other. and if you wish the women to have a good time have just as many men guests as women guests If the men are 10 have Q good time make sure that some of the women are pretty and fattering. Men like to be fattered. Oh, yes, they do. One of the surest ways to be awkward in com pany'' is to try to act differently from ones accustomed manner. If ones everyday manner is not good enough for company, then it should be changed, but the most delightful com pany manner is the natural manner when it is natural to be charming. One of the charms of an agreeable manner Is to seem unaffected; another is to have something to say worth hearing. and to say it easily and Interestingly; another is to listen appreciatiyely when others speak

Those who have studied the subject carefully. however, are certain that there is a disease of dogs, which is communicable by one suffering from it to other animals and to man. But this disease is very rare. and probably not one person in thousand bitten by dogs is in any danger of it, and not one dog killed among five hundred sup posed mad dogs is really mad.

dissipate all his worldly goods for the
benefit of the parasitic Elder Nichols
and his followers. This step has been
in contemplation for some time, but Mr..
Lee temporarily headed it off by leav-
ing the city yesterday. 1t seems that
he and his wife have been packing their
goods this week with a system and
thoroughness that suggested that they
were going to leave for good. Their
supposed and as it turned out their
real. destination was Barrie, ILL.,. where
heaven was started by Elder Nichols
some time ago, and whittier number
of the Davenport brethren have al
ready migrated.
Clint r. Lee, son Of the Davenport
leader Of the faithful, arrived from
Lincoln, Neb., last evening, having re-
ceived word of the approaching move
of his father, but by the time an officer
of the law was on the elder Lees trail,
with notice of the commencement of
guardianship proceedings, that gentle
man and his wife had gone to Rock
Island to take the train for Barrie.
They were found there, but could
neither be detained nor brought back.
1t is stated that Mr.. Lee promised to
return to this side, having missed his
train, but 1t seems that he was too
shrewd, to use a polite word, to keep
his promise. So he Is in heaven, and

by the other members of the family is
