The Book of Job.

A story told of Carlyle in an English
review forcibly recalls the days when
in England religious services were long
enough to test the zeal of the wor-
shippers.
According to the story, Carlyle had
been asked to take the reading at fam
lily prayers during a short visit paid to
his friend, the provost Of Kirkaldy.
The Bible CHANGED to open at the first
chapter of the book of Job, and Car
lyle Immediately became absorbed in
his subject and read on and on to the
end Of the last chapter, when, closing
the volume, he remarked:
'That is a marvellous lifelike drama,
only to be appreciated when read right
through"
1t is fair to infer that it was appre.
ciated for once. Any one who has tax
en- long. solitary afternoon and at
tempted to give the book of Job an
opportunity to be appreciated by read
ing it honestly through at one sitting
can realize the CONSERVATION of the
provost. Such one viii not be likely
to wonder with Carlyle why be was
not asked again to assist at family
prayers in that household

Richard made a gesture expressive
of the futility of stating further evil

The girl made an effort to check her
amusement.

gravity, looking at him with a frank
ness so charming that he forgot his
dislike of her and smiled back indul-
gently.

Could Not cura Himself.

Something of the irony Of fate is ex-
emplified in an anecdote related by the
New York Times concerning Professor
Poirier, who until his death was the
most famous cancer expert in France.
Professor Poirier gave much of his
time without pay to aiding poor people
afflicted with cancer. One day there
came to him a woman on whom he had
operated and who feared the growth
was coming again.
Fear nothing" said the physician
when he had made an examination.
at will be some years before you will
need fresh peration-which, by the
way, I shall not be able to perform"
"But, doctor, you will not refuse to
treat me?"

and it will be more rapid than yours"

it?"

You run right up and put on your hat,

II wonder if CAM?
"Of course you can" said the gentle
man securely. II won't run away with
you"
Safe in her own room, Miss Cynthia
consulted Martha Ann

Ann, do you"
II wouldn't go in one of them things

said, "and he's all right. l saw his
name on a bundle of papers he left in
the automobile. He's Andrew Briggs,
the millionaire that's bought the fac
tory. He is building a church and
library for the town, and l guess he's
respectable"
Miss Cynthia dressed in a whirl. OF
what account was that little romance
of years ago when at her gates was a
prince like this?
She came down with four yards of
white chiffon tied around her hat. It
had been bought for waist, but, worn
as veil, it made fascinating frame
for her flushed little face. She had
loosened her hair, and the soft brown
curls gave youthfulness to her express
sion.
Mr.. Briggs eyed her with apprecia-
ton.
I'm awfully glad l met you," he
said again as he helped her into his
car.
Martha looked after them as they
whirled down the long white road.

pie take to each other like that? bet
