replied the minister's wife, looking al
him with a smile.
"Oh, well, that may be, Sarah. But
let me read you the other letter." he
went on without discussing the salary
matter:
CHAPEL HILL CHURCH, ELMDALE.
Rev. Philip Strong:
Dear Brother-At a meeting of the Elmdale
Chapel Hill church, held last week Thursday, it
was unanimously voted to extend you a call to
become pastor of the church at a salary of 50, 900
a year, with two months vacation, to be selected
at your own convenience. The Chapel Hill church
is in a prosperous condition., and many of the
members recall your career in the college with
much pleasure. This is an especially strong cen.
ter for church work, the proximity of the boys
academy and the university making the situation
one of great power to a man who thoroughly un-
derstands and enjoys young men, as we know you
do. We most earnestly hope you will consider
this call not as purely formal, but as from the
hearts of the people. We are, very cordially
yours, in behalf of the church,
PROFESSOR WELLMAN,
Chairman of the Board of Trustees.
What do you think of that?" asked
the minister again.
THE salary is just the same, isn't
it?"
Now, Sarah" said the minister, 'if
l didn't know what a generous, Inself-
ish heart you really have, l should get
very veXed at you for talking about
the salary as if that was the most i'm
portant thing"
'"The salary is very important, though.
But you know, Philip, | would be as
willing as you are to live on no salary
if the grocer and butcher would con-
tinue to feed US for nothing. / wish
from the bottom of my heart that We
could live without money"
ut is a bother, isn't it?' replied Phil
ip. so gravely that his wife laughed
heartily at his tone.
well the question is. what to do
with the letters" resumed the minister.
(Which of the two churches do you
prefer?" asked his wife.
81 would rather go to the Chapel Hill
church as far as my preference is con-
cerned."
Then why not accept their call. if
that is the way you feel"
Because, while I should like to &c
to Elmdale. l feel as If l ought to go to
Milton"

Ph1fip Strong could not decide what
was best to do.
The postman that evening had
brought him two letters, and he had
just finished reading them. He sat
with his hands clasped yer his knee,
leaning back In his chair and looking
out through his study window. He
was evidently thinking very hard, and
the two letters were the cause of 1t.
Finally he rose, went to his study
door and called down the stairs:
Sarah, / wish you would come up
here. / want your help"
GAN right. Philip, I'll be up in a min
ute," responded a voice from below,
and very soon the minister's wife came
up stairs into her husbands study.
whats the matterT' she said as
she came into the at must be
something very serious, for you don't
call M up here unless you are in great
distress. You remember the last time
you called me, you had shut the tassel
of your dressing gown under the lid
of your writing desk, and l had to cut
you loose. You aren't fast anywhere
now, are you?"
Philip smiled quantity. Eyes, l am.
I'm in a strait betwixt two. Let me
read these letters. and you will see."
So he began at once. and we will
copy the letters. emitting dates:
CALVARY CHURCH. MILTON.
Rev. Philip Strong:
Dear Sir-At a meeting of the Milton Calvary
church, held last week, it was voted unanimously
to extend you a call to become pastor of this
church at a salary of 50, 900 a year. We trust that
you will find it in accordance with the will of
the Head of the church to accept this decision on
the part Of Calvary church and become its pastor.
The church is in good condition and has the
hearty support of most of the leading families in
the town. 1t is the strongest in membership and
financially Of the seven principal churches here.
We await your reply, confidently hoping you will
decide to come to US. We have been without a
settled pastor now for nearly a year, since the
death of DR.. Brown, and we have united upon
you as the person most eminently fitted to fill the
pulpit Of Calvary church. The grace of our Lord
be with you. In behalf of the church,
WILLIAM WINTER,
Chairman of the Board of Trustees.
