A mans reputation is not as unchanging
as the leopard's spots. Three or four

Wouldn't Worry Mother.

March 24.-The Rev. Charles l.. Schoon-
maker of Plainfeld, n. j., who, after sailing
for England on his way to Africa to be a mis-
sionary, suddenly decided to return to this
country, and thereby caused the Presbyterian
Board of Foreign Missions to wonder mildly,
was seen just after he landed from the steam
ship Teutonic at the White Star line pier.
Young DR.. Schoonmaker was having his bag
gage examined, and under his arm he held a
mandolin, with which he had originally in
tended to drive dull care away when alone in
the African jungle.
''The reason / came back" said he. was
on account of my mother. I didn't think it
was right to subject her to the continuous
worry that she would have been occasioned
If l had gone to Africa. I suppose l ought
to have thought about this before, but it was
not until got to the other side and talked
with those who had been there that realized
the dangers to which I would be subjected and
the worry that my mother would have on my
account.
LAS for my not informing her that I had
decided not to go to Africa. 1 cabled the
Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions of
my decision, and it is their duty to inform
ones family of any such message. My plans
are all upset now. l had been working to-
ward this tor years. shall. of course, take
up my work. but as yet I have not decided
