THE LETTER "C' IN CBURCHMEN.
what the Use of the Capital "C' and
Smnn sc" MaN Menn.


A "Churchman with a capital C.
little booklet by Rev. r. w. Lowrie,
D. D., has been circulated among Episco-
palians in Savannah. 1t defines the diff
ference between a Churchman and
churchman, the one a member of the
church, through principle, and the other
through convenience. 1t is interesting
reading, not only to Episcopalians, but
to all church people.
A Churchman is one who believes fully
in the Church; a churchman, one who be
lieves in il little, and, metimes, jdst
as little as he can.
A Chlrchman is a man or woman who
belongs to the Church out of principles
churchman. frequently only out of choice
or convenience.
A Churchman stands by his parish, no
matter who the rector is q churchman, if
he happen 10 like the rector.
The Churchman is at his place of wor-
ship, good reasons alone preventing; the
churchman, if inclination and convenience
dictate.
The Churchman kneels, and. as a rule,
on both knees, not on his forehead; a mere
churchman usually bows the head, or
leans slightly forward; the church says
"all kneeling" Daniel did not bend the
shoulders three times day towards Je

Churchmen gladly give of their means

a kind of tax. The Church is a MAT

STORIES FOR CHILDREN.
The Right Kind to Read and Tell to
the Little Ones.

The mothers and teachers class in kin
dergarten principles met yesterday to dis
cuss the question of stories for children
Stories" said Miss Backus, "are the
beginnings Of literature. 1t was 50 with
all the races, it is so with the child. BY
the use of good stories, that is, stories
and tales that are appropriate, true to
nature or to principle and clothed in
good English, we may lay the founda-
lions of a love of the best literature that
the world affords. Unfortunately the re-
verse is also true The gruesome and
horrible stories told to children sometimes
leads directly to a love of the exciting
pernicious books and stories that often
prove the ruin of youth.
"A story is an orderly narrative Of
events real CT imaginary, and stories may
be divided in two great classes. Realistic
and fancy stories. The first deals with all
situations and events within the limit Of
possibility and are useful for many rea-
sons Realistic stories give a child many
experiences of life that he could not 9th
erWise have. They prevent egotism, and
keep him from thinking that he is the
center of the universe; they give him
larger ideals, and cultivate in him sym
"
Fairy stories are just useful, for they
show the working of some truth or prin-
ciple without the limitations of the act
ual; they feed a chid's imagination with
good, pure food, they are really fairy,
which after all only means spiritual.
There is a race known to several teach
ers of a boy of fourteen, who was de-
vouring fairy tales when his companions
read Dickens and Scott, Cooper and Mar
ryat, simply because he had been denied
them at the right age, and the mental
craving for them had to be satisfied be-
fore anything else was desired.
Stories should be told" said Miss
Backus, land never read to children UNI
der eight, as the book of the age, the tone
and gesture convey so much more. than
words to a little child. Never tack on
a moral. it is better that the story was
left untold than that it should end in a
moral pill that must be swallowed. A
child is very quick to discover the moral
for himself, if the story is a good one
but he resents having it printed out to
him as much as the oldest of grown per-
sons"
The members of the class was asked to
name a story that they would not tell to
a child, and many amusing answers re-
suited. One mother said that to this day
she could not look at the book contain
ing the story of Pauline and the matches
without a shudder. and IL was generally
agreed that the tragic, the gruesome. and
the horrible should be severely let alone.

HEART DISEASE.
Some Facts Regarding the Rapid In
crease of Heart Trouble.

Heart trouble, at least among the Amer-
cans, is certainly increasing and while
this may be largely due to the excitement
and worry of American business life, it
is more often the result of weak stomachs.
of poor digestion.
Real organic disease is incurable; bu;
not one case in hundred of heart trouble
Is organic.
The close relation between heart trouble
and poor digestion is because both organs
are controlled by the same great nerves
the Sympathetic and the Pneumogastric
In another way also the heart Is affect
ed by the form of poor digestion. which
causes gas and fermentation from half
digested food. There is u feeling of op-
preston and heaviness in the chest caused
by pressure Of the distended stomach on
the heart and lungs, interfering with their
action, hence arises palpitation and short
breath.
Poor digestion also poisons the blood
making IT thin and watery, which irritates
and weakens the heart
The most sensible treatment for heart
trouble IS to improve the digestion and 10
insure the prompt assimilation Of food
This can be done by the regular use
after meals Of some safe pleasant ana
effective digestive preparation, like
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets. which may
be found a. drug stores. and which con-

dark as to whether he means Roman,
Greek or Anglican.
Church folk feel thatdhey are in Church
as soon as they get in it; those who are
only church folk, not until they see the
minister come in.
And, in great many other ways, there
is great difference between Churchmen
with a capital &c" and those without.
For instance, the latter say the Sac
rament," and leave us TO guess which
one they mean; they say Episcopal min
lister" of any of our clergymen, whereas
the only Episcopal minister, strictly
speaking, is the bishop they say Sab
bath" and yet do not really mean Satur-
day; Sunday or Lords day." is Eng
fish for what they really trying to
say.
l cannot mention here all the marks by
which the Churchman may be distin-
guished from the churchman. They are
many large or small, and plain 10 the
practiced eye and ear. No Churchman will
assert that Henry VIII founded the
Episcopal Church" He has too much re-
gard for the Ninth Commandment.
Some who are not well read in the par
Hamentary and other proceedings of that
day make the assertion. The Churchman
makes il not; only the churchman. When
a Presbyterian millionaire POUNDS a Bap-
fist college, and a Protestant Methodist,
a Roman cathedral. then say that about
f1Snry, out wall until they 40. GU VIII
wait long time
Again, the capital Churchman" never
breaches trial Sermon" nor asks any
one to do SO; he has more delicacy and
self-respect. He never finds fault with his
rector as to what service, or how or when
they shall be held; the rector is head of
the parish, and his conscience and bishop
are his only ecclesiastical superiors. The
capital Churchman pays his pew rent
and pledges, gladly and promptly, never
requiring 10 be dunned; if elected vestry-
man, declines to serve, or else does it
properly; if a teacher, is in his place, or
sends a substitute; calls like gentleman
on new rector. shows courtesy to strang-
ers at Church, vacates his own seat if needs
be on occasion, responds not mumbles;
tarries space for mis- own silent prayer
and that of others; leaves Church quietly,
with only subdued talk, and that of some
necessary sort; hats himself at the door,
not in the aisle, and demeans himself both
near the Church and homeward we'll, just
as he ought to-
A good Churchman'' is a Churchman
who is trying to be truly good, and my
word for it, his capital C-ness will help,
not hinder his goodness.

Club will be sailed between the middle
and the end of May, at about the same
time during the month as il was last
year. Present indications point to a very
large number of entries and some of the
club members are discussing the wisdom
and ACCESSIBILITY of bringing down from
the North fast boats of the second and
third classes, according to the club sys-
TEN of classification. The second class
includes open yachts of more than
twenty feet of water line. the third
class open yachts of less length. The
sailing rules are being revised by com
mittee of the club and it is hoped that
after the revision the possibility of amp
misunderstanding or unpleasantness will
be entirely obViated.
