Cleanliness.

This church, like many another one,
had had trouble about pumping the or
gan, and the plan of using water
power was gladly adopted. Connec-
ton was made with the pipes of the
rectory, which stood on the adjoining
lot. All the preliminary tests were
satisfactory. On the Sunday morn
ing when the apparatus was to be
used for the first time at a regular
service the orgalist arrived early for
a final trial. There was not a hitch.
The congregation generally knew of
the innovation, and awaited the open
ing strains of the professional with
uncommon interest. Not a sound came
from the organ, however, and the
choir had to march in singing the
hymn as best it could, unaccompanied.
OF course the disappointment was
keen.

Her Answer.

An Atchison girl had a proposal OF
marriage Sunday night and asked a
week to think it over. She went to all
of her married sisters. One, who used
to be a belle, had three children, did all
her OWN work and hadn't been to the
theater or out riding since she was
married. Another, whose husband was
a promising young man at the time
she was married, vas supporting
him. A third didn't dare say
her life was her own when her hus-
band was around, and a fourth was di-
vorced. After visiting them and hear
ing their woes, the heroine of this lit
tie tale went home, got pen, ink and
paper and wrote an answer to the
young man. You may think it was re-
fusing him, but it wasn't. She said
she could be ready in a month.-Atch-
