Endowed Churches,

When neighborhood OF homes turns
into a region of boarding houses. as fire.
Quently happens in our older and larger
cities, what shall become of the churches?
The young men and women in the board
ing houses need them more perhaps than
did the families to which these churches
used to minister. but the young people
cannot contribute to their support as the
heads of families once did, and unless
such a church can get help from outside
it must cXpend, in the struggle for mere
existence. energy which it ought to use in
reaching and aiding the multitude.
Problems of this kind confront every
denomination and tax the mind and heart
of many n city clergyman. Why not
solve them and set the ministers free
from pitiabe anxieties by endowing such
churches as colleges are endowed? Rich
men might remember them with requests.
Poorer men might combine to raise me-
mortal funds which should bear the
names of former pastors.
There are already some indications OF
general movement along these lines
and it is clear that few more promising
but neglected fields are now open t.

Old Wives md Young Husba n IL.

We are not trained mp yet to the mar
riage of the really old woman to the
young man. Probably fifty years from
now it will be quite the fashion and
grandmas of seventy will have the air of
being twenty-five. But there is such n
piteous side of it. The woman appears
so humiliatingly old and looks as if she
knew it.
One day in the Rue di Rivoli, in Paris. l
encountered one of these bcdizened old
danes walking with a young and hand
some man, tall, very slim and well dress
ed. She was little woman and walked
stifily, as though her boots were too tight.
She was radiantly dressed in white, and n
white parssol was spread over her head,
on which was perchcd an elaborate light
hat. Her face was richly painted, with a
pair of crimson lips as the deepest note of
color, and a fringe of auburn curls was
on her forehead. She looked haggard
and aged.
There was something curiously familiar
about her face and as she spoke | sud
denly saw who it wns-Adelina Patti and
her young husband 1t was a shock.

Sensick Cigars.

"Since our troops have been in the
Philippines my friends among the officers
stationed there have at frequent intervals
been remembered with boxes of Manila
cigars" remarked member of Uncle
Sans fighting force, who was severely
wounded at FL Cancy and is now on the
retired list, to a Washington Star re-
porter.
"Recently I received a shipment Of
cigars" he continued, "but they proved a
sad disappointment. In fact, they seemed
to me to be entirely worthless. ! puffed
ut one after another, but they simply
could not be smoked. In despair finally
consulted a well known tobacconst. The
situation was no problem to him. He
promptly told me to lay the cigars aside
for few weeks, after which | would find
them all right. He was correct. " Zen
=! sought an explanation, the tobacconist
assured me in all seriousness that the
cigars had been seasick from the voyage
across the Pacific and needed rest.

When the marquis and party decided
to proceed east from ST. Paul over the
Milwaukee line, the officials Of the road
extended to the distinguished japanese
and his companions the courtesy of the
line and informed the private secretary
that the tickets and the private car would
cost nothing The secretary was visibly
embarrassed and shook his head dubious
