ments that are furnished TO enliven the

In the First Presbyterian church. of
Passaic N. j., there was great excite
ment when Rev. w. l. Sweet, of

did about a 800 worth of damage by
his gestures. He had just started when
with a sweep Of his hand. he knocked a
large and valuable vase containing cut
flowers off the pulpit. The congrega-
ton Uttered.
A few moments later away went the
large Bible, which occupied the top of
the desk. Next glass containing ice
water was sent flying against the choir
loft and smashed, and the congregation
moved in their seats, but when table
on which was cut glass pitcher filled
with water, went over into the front
ranks Of the worshipers it was more
than they could stand and general
laugh went up.
Mr.. Sweet laughed, too, and when
quiet was restored went on as though
nothing had happened

EMMA KECK, Cor. Sec.
Once upon a time there was minis
ter in little Nebraska town who had
two matters which were very close 70
his heart He had prayed long and
earnestly that the mortgage on the
church might be paid off and that he
might have a son and heir Not long
ago a boy came TO gladden. his heart
and home, and on the same day the rich
man OF the village died. leaving IS 900
with which to pay off the church debt.
THE town was wild with excitement
over the double event and bets were
freely made as to which subject WIS
closest to the ministers heart and which
he would refer to first in his sermon on
the following Sunday. The eventful
day arrived and excitement rau high.
There was an expectant hush when the
minister entered the pulpit.
Ny friends, he said, 'you know
what has been close to my heart for
many years, and you know Of the joy
ful happenings Of the past week And
new my friends. | want yon to join
with me in thanking God for the succor

ed through three States and made eight
speeches. At Haverhill. Mass, the
crowds completely over-rode the police
and surrounded the Presidents carriage,
making it difficult for it to advance.

at Old Orchard was Congressman Little
field of Rockland When Danville
Junction was reached the President was
greeted by Postmaster General and Mrs.
Payne, Mrs. Garret A. Hobart and Mrs.
Charles Emory Smith. Some stops
were made which were not on the timer
airy. At Lisbon, Lisbon Falls and
Brunswick crowds gathered and the
President was obliged to say a few
words.

cat climb q neigbboring tree Some
time after there was futtering In the
tree. and three birds fell; then pussy
came down, looked a-ound, saw one
bird. sank her teeth into its lead,
carried 1t around the corner; and then
came back and looked for the others but
could not find them.
One bird was not enough, and she
went up the tree after more.
Moral-Some cats are schemers.
