CASH REGISTER
 AT CHURCHDOOR

A cash register has been installed at Worcester, Mass, so that the dimes paid by the parishioners for admission may be properly recorded.
 The bell, which gave out clear, sharp ring, became monotonous to the church. goers, so that after the first trial last Sunday the register was fixed so that the bell ringing was cut out. The drawer still opens with bang. but there is now no bell accompaniment when the amount is registered.
 As the rush for admission to the church reaches its height on Sunday it becomes almost impossible to work the money drawer fast enough, and the line of those waiting increases to the proportions of a line of theatregoers at the box office.
 On the whole, however, the cash regis ter does its work satisfactorily, and in the course of a few weeks the men run ming 1t will be able to manipulate it more quickly.
 This is said to be the first instance of a sale of a cash register for church use, and it created something of sensation in the office of the company when Mar GUS Schiff, the agent gave in the order for the machine from the Rev. Julius Rodziewicz, the newly appointed rector of the church, who was Instrumental in having Bishop Beaven order the register installed in St. Casimirs.
 The reason given for the installing of the cash register is that the receipts from the admission to the masses did not come up to the expectations of those who thought they knew what they should be- The new rector said he would very quick ly settle that point and the cash register is the result

The Sun-diaI's Motto.

Orison Swett Warden, in Success Maga-
 zine"
 If you want your life to run without friction, adopt the sun-dials motto: "I record none but hours of sunshine"
 What a great thing it would be if we could only learn that the art of wiping out of our memories forever everything that is unpleasant, everything which brings up bitter memories and unfortunate associa- tions and depressing, discouraging sug- gestions. would double and quadruple our happiness! If we could only keep the mind filled with beautiful thoughts. thoughts which uplift and encourage, the efficiency of our lives would be multi piled many, many times.
 No mind can do good work when cloud cd with unhappy thoughts. The mental sky must be clear or there can be no en- thusasm, no brightness, clearness or ef- flciency in our mental work.
 If you would do the maximum of which you are capable, keep the mind filled with sunshine, with beauty and truth, with cheerful uplifting thoughts. Bury every thing that makes you unhappy and dis cordant, everything that cramps your freedom, that worries you, before it buries you.
 Man was not made to express discord, but harmony; to express beauty, truth love, and happiness; wholeness not half ness, completeness, not incompleteness.
 The mental temple was not given us for the storing of low, base, mean things It was intended for the abode of the gods for the .treasuring of high purposes, grand aims, noble aspirations.
 It does not take very long to learn tha the good excludes the bad; that the higher always shuts out the lower; that the greater motive the grander affection. ex- cludes the lesser, the lower The good is more than a match for the bad

Barqain in Babies.

 From Success Magazine
 Among the deacons of a Presbyterian church in all Ohio town was good old gentleman familiarly known as Uncle Thomas" Although too deaf to hear, Ee was always in his accustomed seat at church and his zeal in religious work was untiring. Owing to shortage of song books in the Sabbath school, some additional ones were ordered by Uncle Thomas" who apprised the pastor of their arrival, and the latter agreed to announce the fact from the pulpit on Sunday morn ing
 The pastor made the promised announce ment, among others, concluding with this one:
 Parents wishing their children bap- tized will please present them at the close of the service"
 The good deacon jumped to his feet, and. in the loud voice peculiar to the deaf, bawled out Those who haven't any can get them at my house for 50 cents apieceV
 As Uncle Thomas" and his wife had always been childless, this startling infor- nation almost broke up the meeting, and a wave of merriment swept the congrega- ton that threatened to shake the church from it's foundation.
