THE MINISTER'S DILEMMA.
He Tells What it Was, But Fails to
 State What He Did.
'hicagO Record-Herald

Chicago ecord-Herald,
 The Rev. Dr. John Henry Barrows. President of Oberln College. who form erlv preached to a Chicago congregation. tells a little story concerning an eXpe- rience of his own that may be worth passing along It was at the time that Dr. Barrows was making arrangements for the holding of the great congress of religions here. He had immense corre- sDondence to take care of and found il necessary to employ a stenographer. The young lady was pretty. It is not to he inferred that there are any but pretty lady stenographers, but the one employed by pr. Barrows was especially comedy,
 The doctor fitted up work room on the third floor of his house. where he and the stenogTapher tOiled hard day alter day. undisturbed by callers and well away from the noises of the streets.
 The work of preparing for the congress was still going forward on the l4th or February. when the doctors little son be- came excited over the sending and re- cciving of valentines. The boy had been running aboUt the neighborhood handing lovetokens to the children ne knew and many had come to him, when he re- memhered that he had father up on the third floor in addition to the one Tn Heaven Going to his mother. he pro posed that they send up d valentine,
 Well" said Mrs. Barrows, Tt IS very nice of YOU to remember father. How would it do for me to write valentine

The thunders of the last day will be the salvo that greets you into narbor. Thes lightniiigs will be only the torches of triumphal procession marching down to escort you home. The burning worlds flashing through mmensity will be the rockets celebrating vour coronation on thrones where you will reign forever and forever and forever Where is death What have we to do with death? As your reunited body and soul swing off from this planet on that last day you will see deep gashes all ID and down the hllls. deep gashes all through the valleys, and they will be the emptied graves. they will be the abandoned sepulchers, with rough ground tossed on each side of them and slabs will lie uneven on the rent hiliocks. and there will be fallen monuments and cenotaphs. and then for the first time you will appreciate the full exhdlaraton of the text, Death is swallowed up in victory
 Hail the Lord of earth and Heaven.
 Praise to thee by both be given. Thee we greet triumphant now;
 Hail the resurrection thou!
