The reputation OF Mr.. George Wash
ington Jones for honesty had been
slightly tarnished for some years, but
his son Erastus was not supposed to
know It,
"Cur's how cold contracts t'ings," Mr..
Jones remarked thoughtfully one even
ing. "Now dere's Macmillan Smiths
wood pile for a case. Pears like dat
wood pile is shrinking steady since dis
las cop spell set in"
Seems as II our pile behind de stove
was getting bigger, paw" hazarded
Erastus, gazing at his parent for ex-
PLANTATION Of this phenomenon.
Course it am, chile" said Mr.. Jones
calmly. "'cause de room is hot an heat
expands tings. Pears like 20 gwine
to school don put much wisdom into
dat head Of yours"

~AMPMEETING days have not
gone forever. Notwithstanding the
many assertions that they have
ceased TO serve the purposes for which
they we're originally intended.
Rather. they have been adapted to
the needs OF the times. or to this gem
erauons conception OF those needs. At
Brandywine Summit there is no falling
or Of the interest and enthusiasm which
have so long characterized these an
uual gatherings.
IN these days there is not 80 much
religious fervor; there is less Of ex-
hortatlon. and the converts are fewer
in number. But these are not signs by
which we may mark the spiritual good
that these gatherings do We have no
doubt that the shouts Of JOY and the
"amens" of the old days were signs Of
true religious fervor, but we must not
conclude that there is less spiritual
exaltation with these signs omitted.
For families to spend a week In the
woods to meet old friends and ac-
Quaintances. to hear able sermons, and
TO gather under the stade Of the trees
and sing the grand old hymns OF the
saints gone beforo-all this under
proper control is physical mental and
moral regeneration.
