A Possible Romance.

There lately came into the possession
of a gentleman in Macon, a fifty cent
piece of the mintage of 1869, which is
so well preserved and unwom as to
suggest the idea that the coin has been
kept out Of circulation many of the
years since its issuance. A closer eX-
animation makes the presumption
stronger, for on the side where the
Goddess of Liberty sits there is plainly
cut or stamped into the metal "T. NJ. I.
to 7. D. l."
The age of the coin, together with
Its condition showing that it has been
preserved as a memento or keepsake,
and the legend it bears makes possible
a very romantic story, never to be
known until the identity of 7. D. |. or
l. NJ. |. is revealed. How far this
half-dollar has come on its travels.
whetherT. D. |. partedwith it through
dire distress of poverty or because she
changed her mind" whether they
were married or not-all these things
must be left to the imagination
But if 7. NJ. |. or T. D. |. is living.
and thelknowledge of the whereabouts of
this ancient token of affection comes to
either, very interesting, tragica pa
thetic, humorous .or sad memory may
be recalled.

Calls for Dcacon-sses.
In one week there has been to the

raised the training of a dcaconesses,
but pleads Tor helper to begin work in
November In the st. Louis Confer
ence another pleads for deaconesses
TO help in mining sections where thous-
ands Of foreigners are employed The
same plea comes from a district secre-
tary in Texas who is doing her best to
help, but feels inefficient W tn family
cares and domestic obligations. The
manager Of a cotton mill, which con
trolls 5000 employees, offers to support
a Wesley House if we but furnish the
deaconess and working force. Pass
this call on to those who who can give
their lives to Christ for this service.
Missionary reading means missionary
succeeding. Turn mans mind to a
missionary's life, and you turn The
mans life to a missionarys work.
Every bright missionary book has Sc
quels- as many Of them as it has read
ers. They shall never print "the end"
on the last page of such book, as it is
always to be continued. The problem
of missions at the bottom is this: How
to create love of missionary reading.
1t is noble in our Christian heroes to
blazen the way Of the cross, it is also
honorable in us to turn the eyes of the
young toward their glory, and they in
their turn may lead the advancing hosts. |
