Husband and Wife.

No man yet was ever made more
tender by having tenderness de-
manded of him. no man yet was ever
cried into loving his wife more. l
am willing to admit that men are as
faulty creatures as women themselves,
unsympathetic in small things, often
blind and that they may easily be
exasperated into small brutalities of
speech. If woman rsfrains from ex-
acting devotion and is unswervingly
kind and unselfish, husband who has
any affection for his wife at all can
be left to look out for doing his share.
He will look out for it anyway; no
one else can make him. Neither tears
nor entreaties will wiring from him
those small kindnesses and attentions
so dear to women.-A Wife, in Har.

Farmer Used WeII-Learned Phrase at
Unfortunate Time.

A certain wealthy farmer, who
owned broad acres in an aristocratic
section of the Bay State not so far
distant from Boston, figured among
his neighbors as something of a dia-
mond in the rough. One of his strong
est predictions was to exploit his
rather stit opinions of persons in
terms that could not be mistaken. His
two daughters had social aspirations,
in the interest of which they had to
give frequent lectures on the social
usages of the community.

pie you meet" the doting parent was

day before when he attended the

Minister'S Successful Method Of Gath

Que OF the most difficult PROPOSE
tons that a new pastor has to face,
when he takes charge Of church that
has fallen OF in attendance and gen
orally gone to seed, Is to fill the pews
and build up the membership anew.
Not long ago this problem was solved
in a Brooklyn church. Before taking
hold the new pastor had planned a
scheme which he thought would work
moderately well, but which, in the end,
far exceeded his hopes in its results.
A few days before the eventful first
Sunday he called upon dozen of the
pillars Of the church" and asked
them each to call up on the telephone
early on Sunday morning half dozen
at least of their friends, and not only
ask them especially to come to church
that morning, but also to telephone
the same request to as many Of their
own friends as they could. They all
promised to do SO, and when the cler-
gyman reached his church that Sun
day he found 1t packed. He had pre-
pared a rousing sermon and every one
went away we'll satisfied.
This method of getting congrega-
ton was continued along practically
the same lines for months AS a re-
suit of the drumming up" by tele
