HE KNEW HIS WIFE.
Colonel Sure Her influence Would
Open Heavens Gates for Him.

Bishop Talbot, for years the Cow
boy bishop" of Wyoming and Idaho,
but now bishop of central Pennsyl.
vania, often found himself faced by
unusual problems in his life in the
pioneer west. Here is one of the host
OF amusing ones described by him in
his recently published book of rem
iniscences:
At the close of one of his meetings
a man who was known as the
colonel said to him quietly:
Il should like to ask YOU few ques.
lions if you do not object"
Il shall be only too glad to answer
them If can, colonel. Please pro-
ceed."
We'll, bishop, do You mink my wife
is good woman?"
"One of the best have ever known. :"
do you think she is a Christian?"
IF she is not | should doubt wheth-
or any of us could be so considered"
Well. now, do you think she will
make it,"
How is that, colonel?"
DO you think my wife will get in?"
Still determined not to appear to di-
vine his meaning, the bishop said:
Excuse me, colonel, but please ex.
plain
Il simply mean this, bishop: Do you
think that st, Peter will let the old
lady pass through the pearly gates?"
Il have not a doubt of it, colonel. 4"
Then you think that you can guar.
antee that she will get in?"
so far as my opinion is worth any.
thing, cannot for moment cues.
ton it."
We'll, then, II that is so / do not
think | shall be confirmed In fact. |
do not see that | need to be. You see,
bishop, it is just this way: If the old
lady gets in and they lock the door
against the old man she will simply
raise Cain until she gets me let in.
And she's sure to succeed"
II was in vain that the bishop tried
to convince him the futility of such an
argument. His faith in his wife's in.
tiuence was too strong to be shaken bv
anything the clergyman could allege.
