PUZZLES IN SPELLING
They Are Liable to Catch in a Most
Mysterious Way.

What queer quirks a good and obe-
dent mind will sometimes takel A
clergyman OF exceptional scholarly at
tainments tells me that he once wrote
what he at the moment conceived to
be the word righteous" The nature
OF his calling ought to suggest that OF
all words this one should be among the
most familiar 10 him, and indeed 1t
was. Yet when he had written it it
did not look right. After puzzling over
It for some time he concluded that 1t
must end with ''ious' instead Of "eous,"
as he had written 1t. Finally in a
mental muddle he went to his una
bridgcd dictionary, but was amazed at
finding no such word there. Deferring
further search for the nonce. he COM
pleted his letter and then opened the
dictionary again. This time he found
the word all right and I'm It's proper
place, fact which, he said, would
have been n warning TO him If he had
been a drinking man.
The explanation Of it was that by
some unaccountable freak he had got
1t into his noddle that it was spelled
''ritcheOus" He had spelled It so in
his letter and had of course looked on
the wrong page Of the dictionary for II
in the first instance. By the time he
looked again the crotchet was out OF
his nslnd, and he knew how TO spell the
word as we'll as Webster did.-Brook'

TIMES HAVE CHANGED
People Now Do Not Look to Ministers
as They Once Did.


If scholarly. men more and more re-
ject the church as the means by which
they viii influence opinion and con
duct and replace 1t by educational, ed
itorial and administrative agencies, the
next century may be altogether guided
In its intellectual decisions and in
those Of its actions which depend on
intellectual judgments by forces out
side the church. Our grandfathers
looked to the minister for advice not
only upon religious beliefs and moral
practice, but also upon most matters
outside their own direct acquaintance.
The minister prescribed for the educa-
ton of sons, solved social problems
and acted as the source and judge OF
truth in matters Of general knowledge.
Our sons seem likely TO regard the
ministry as a body of men fitted to
deal with mems religious welfare, but
less fitted to be generous mentors in
others. The direction of the people in
other than purely religious activities
may pass wholly out of the hands Of
the church.-Professor L. L. Thorn
dixie in Century.

One night an abstemious party, who

miring inventor at the head OF the
table.

Boyds?'" inquired the novitiate.
