In his afternoon addresses at the big
Academy Of Music, In the heart of the
downtown district, DR.. Torrey has been
speaking On the Holy Spirit. His SER
mons have been full of pointed Illus
trations, which frequently held his
hearers spellbound. One afternoon
amid a hush which fell upon the audi
ence he told tie remarkable story Of
moment by baptism with the Holy
Spirit. He said:
= II remember young woman who
once came to the Bible institute to
study. She was everything that a
young woman going into Christian
work ought not to be. She was loud,
boisterous. self assertive, headstrong-
in fact. when heard she was coming
to the institute had known her down
in Massachusetts-I went over to the
superintendent Of the women's depart
ment and said. 'So-and-so is coming
to the Bible institute The superin-
tendent, who also knew her, said: is
she? What is she coming here forT

He Spoiled Mas Scheme.

W. Caryl Ely of Buffalo, the presi-
dent of the American Street Railway
Associa ton, was talking at the con-
vention In Philadelphia about motor
mems and conductors adventures.
"A conductor came to me with a
smiling face the other day." he said.
"He wanted TO tell me what had hap
pened on an incoming car. 1t seems
that a middle-aged woman and her
little son, lad of or Z years, got
On the car, and as soon as they were
seated the woman took a half-dolar
out of her pocket and handed it to the
youngster to pay the fare with. The
boy held the coin in his small, fat
hand, and examined it closely and SOL
emnly. The conductor appeared for
the fares, and the youngster gave him
the half-dollar with owlish solemnity.
The money was pocketed and 40 cents
in change was put in the small, ex-
tended hand. AS soon as he got this
change the boy laughed, wriggled in
his seat and shouted gleefully:
"'Oh, ma, he's taken the bad half
dollar!"

Statisticians have figured out that

might have 20 aid In the passage Of legis-

that are frultless OF results even though
