A Christian Minister.

William r. Huntington was a Christ
ian minister. Everything else in his
life was made subserviant to the full
filment of that supreme calling, He
sought no new devices. He did not
pose, or strain after sensational effects.
Notoriety was not the breath of his
nostrils. He was content to keep his
church a church. He did not deem it
necessary to introduce into it "smok-
ing services" or moving picture shows
or what has not unjustly been called
ecclesiastical vaudeville" For draw
ing power" he depended upon nothing
more than preaching the gospel and
administering the sacraments of the
church according to his orthodox creed.
But there was no complaint of empty
pews in his church or of failure to
keep men interested in religion. There
was no decline of that in spiritual au-
thority in vital influence for righteous
ness during his ministry of a quarter
of a century. No just and intelligent
person will for a moment dispute the
fact that 1t has been good thing for
New York to have Grace church in it
with Dr. Huntington as its rector, or
that it would be for the good of the
city to have such churches and such
ministers multiplicity. Y. Tribune.

There is no use talking" said the

ing the cranking of the machine. The
collie's eyes sparkled and he seemed
entirely unmoved by the dictum.
Il should say ne couldn't" declared
the girl in the linen dust coat, also
frowning. "All he does is scramble in
and out and ruin ones clothes, and,
besides, he isn't your dog, anyhow
mo, i suppose he'd better stay
here" agreed the girl with the laven-
der veil, whose heart was also as wa
ter before the appeal in a dob's eyes.
Besides, he couldn't run forty miles"
The man VINO owned the car straight
ened up with a growl of disgust.
That dog?" he inquired, brandishing
a wrench. why, that animal could
run from here to kingdom come and
back again and then stroll in for his
supper just as casually as though he
had been sleeping all afternoon on the
veranda!"
They got into the machine and the
engine roared and thumped. At once
the dog bounded from his recumbent
position in a wild series of circles and
split the air with his joyous barks
He paid not the least attention to the
remarks tending to show him that his
company was not desired.
Teddy, go back" roared the man
who was running the automobile as

CITY DAYS.

The Idea of having one municipal
day in the year when all the people
get together in common enjoyment
is old, and 1t has always been profit
able. The coast cities of Massachu-
sets have had beach days; also some
of the coast towns, for half a CEN
tury; and now Toledo, Ohio inaug-
urates a romping day for the chill
dren In the park, and everything shuts
down at midday on that day, and the
old folks gather to see the young
ones romp. This is a healthy and
pleasurable thing for them TO do. It
is a day which resembles a great
family reunion everybody is social;
new acquaintance are made and a
grand good time enjoyed.
Every interior city with park can
have a Romping day for the children,
which means an outing day for the
whole community as well as a day of
appreciation of a city asset. Such
day in Norwich would make all of our
people the better acquainted with and
appreciative of the advantages and
beauties Of our largest and most at
tractive park.
Norwich is slowly developing Mohe-
gan park, and one day at least in the
year the people should be invited
there, for that widens the interest in
1t and awakens the spirit which Sc
lects beautiful spots and from private
wealth makes them the more attrac-
tive. The man who devotes some of
his surplus wealth for the benefit of
all the people finds his reward in the
enjoyment which he has prepared, not
only for his own, but for future gen.
erations.
It is good to have such park. ben
eficial to enjoy it, and to help beautify
It should be, indeed. privilege to cit

colored Troops.

Vermont used to be one of the
staunchest supporters of Nthe negro's
cause, and at the time of the Civil war
no section of the country was more
ferocious with southern sympathizers.
Times have changed, however, and the
former champion of the negro is now
indignant because a colored regiment
of cavalry has been quartered in Bur-
lington. No doubt the old-time love of
the black man will return as soon as
he is moved few hundred miles away.

during the afternoon the girl with the
