CONSCIENCE
IS PECULIAR

1t was the evening service in a
church that is popular with men. A
young man whom the usher had
never before seen, advanced for
about three steps up the aisle, then
he said, wait a minute" and re-
treated to the vestibule, where the
sections clerk sat during the first
part of the service. The young
man took revolver from his peck.
ct and laid it on the table. The
clerk said, Thank you," and
slipped the revolver into the table
drawer.
Another case of peculiarly de.
veloped conscience" said he. Ev-
cry little while somebody drifts in
here carrying something in his
pocket that he is ashamed to take
into church. Possibly that man
has permit to carry revolver.
Anyhow, he has no computations
against carrying one every place he
goes, but his conscience balks at
taking it into church. No doubt
morei Incidents of that kind take
place here than in most churches,
for this is a church where men just
drop in without any special prep.
