A Story With A Moral.

The following, where moral is
clearly shown, is taken from an ex-
change. Recently church congre-
cation in a little Kansas town built a
new church. To pay for it they we're
obliged to call on the merchants of
the community for donations. The
merchants responded literally and
$500 was raised from this source. The
last man asked to subscribe was John
Smith, a leweler. 81 will give you
500 if you will let me add something
to the subscription list" he said.
The permission was accorded him,
and he wrote at the foot of the list:
John Smith. jeweler, 800. 90
Sears, Roebuck & Co........... O0.OO
Montgomery, Ward & Co.. ..... 90. 90
The church people saw the point
when the minister read from the pull
pit the list of donors to the building
fund, and since the dedication of the
church there have been no mail or.
derS sent out from that Kansas town.
