.4GAMBL1NG." SAID HE. IT'S WORSE

The hymn books had reached the
rear now, and she was handing them
along the row of young men. The
man at the end offered to take .
number and pass them along, but
some way she missed his thought.
reached past him and handed one
herself to Silver Sly. As he took it
her hand touched his, he looked up
and their eyes neither soft blue
eyes, and his piercing dark ones.
Next instant she was back at the
organ, and the little church was re-
verberating with thes trident meas
ures of 'sThe Ninety and Nine" Sly's
glance falling upon the fly leaf of the
hymn book in his hand, he read, in
gentle handwriting: Elizabeth
Eleanor SWING Eleanor" he re-
peated, under his BREATH Eleanor
Swing-that fits" He looked from
the signature to the girl at the organ
and back again, and then forth and
back again. His head swan. His
whole being seemed uplifted and
aaoat upon far-of sea OF possible
ties. At the conclusion Of the sing
ing he sat down as one who moves in
dream. He held the hymn book
open at the fly Leaf, and, resting the
printed card under the name written
there, feverishly signed his own in
full-Silver Thornton Sly.
The fat preacher collected tho
cards. AS he came opposite the row
Of young men and took theirs, all but
one Of them still blank, there was q
pcrceptible stir, turning of heads and
whispering in the seats nearabout.
The minister returned forward with
q distinct look of content; arriving
quite close to his coworkers, he an
swered the mute inquiry Of their
faces with a nod and smile.
When the strain of the evening
was lifted and the members Of the
flock exchanged greetings, the new
editor, new man now, was introduced
to the sweet-faced organist. It was
he who walked home with her under
the prairie stars that night.

SUMMER WORK In
THE INTEREST OF THE POOR.

During these warm midsummer days,
when lie is ofttimes a burden even under
the most favorable circumstances. the
thoughts of all humanitarians must natu-
rally turn 40 those unfortunate ones up
on whom falls the heat and burden Of
the day.
lt is pleasant. however 20 reflect upon
wha; is being aone for these needy ones,
especially tor The children and the aged
ana inhrm, Ia our midst.
Ia this connection the work which Is
belEg accomplished under the auspices
of the Union for Christian Work Is de-
serving of more than a passing notice,
especially the fresh air outings for in
valids and others which are so gener-
ously provided by the union.
Some idea OF the pleasure and the good
which result from these outings may be
gained from "A knowledge of the fact that
In the summer of 1900, 1900 car tickets
were distributed for trolley rides TO the
park and elsewhere, 1915 round trip boat
tickets were also issued
These tickets were given out as dis
creetly as possible, on Wednesdays and
Saturdays, by the alternate service of
the committee and, as one member de-
clared. mo estimate of the pleasure and
relief derived from these outings can be
made"
In most instances the tickets are given
to the children of the very poor, TO whom
a sail down the bay or a day at the park
or in the country is a glimpse into an
Elysian land which has existed hitherto
for them only In fancy. OFTEN an over
burdened mother, with sickly babe. ap-
plies for tickets. believing that a day far
down the bay, where the ocean breezes
blow will restore some measure OF health
to the little one.
To all such as these much considera-
tion is shown, and not once, but often,
are such mothers enabled to take their
little ones far from the heat and hustle
of city streets into an environment which
invigorates and restores.
But the work goes even farther than
aged TO whom trolley ride or a sail
would be burden and for these easy
carriages with careful drivers are pro-
yided.
An adjunct of this work, which has no
direct connection with the union, how
ever. was recently instituted by Mrs.
