PARsoN CARRIED SAMPLES.

A minister who has been doing
missionary work in India recently
returned to New York for visit.
He was a guest at well known
hotel, where everything pleased him
except the absence of the very tor
rid sauces and spices to which he
had become accustomed in the far
east. Fortunately he had brought
with him supply of his favorite
condiments. and, by arranging with
the head waiter, these were placed
on his table. One day another guest
saw the appetizing bottle on his
neighbours table and asked the
waiter to give him some of that
sauce"
I'm sorry, sir" said the waiter.
but it is the private property OF
this gentleman" The minister, how
ever. overheard the others request
and told the waiter to pass the
bottle.
The stranger poured some of the
mixture on his meat and took lib
eral mouthful. After a moment he
turned with tears in his eyes to the
minister.
You're minister of the Cos.

Yes, sir"
'And you preach hell and damna-

YES" admitted the minister.

Say" he called in a cautiously raised
voice. do you want to come out in
deep water? They ain't biting here. My
dad says he'll wash my dishes for
awhile, and I've got this boat, so if
you'li slide down here We'll go over
there on the other side of the bay. That
fellow in the launch will give us

We'll both fish,
Good" replied Philip, I'll CO. And
grasping the tackle of boat suspended
high in the air he let himself carefully
down into the stern of the waiting
craft below Taking a rudder rope in
each hand he began to steer, according
to Tony's direction, toward the launch
that was going to give them the friend
ly tow. Tony handled the oars skill
fully and in a few minutes had his boat
secured to the launch, and the two boys
settled themselves to enjoy East, roll
licking ride behind the gay little
craft, which puffed merrily out ;nto
the bay. it's flags waving brisixly in the

as the launch caught the swell of the

We'll drop anchor and fish. The tide

"a GOOD day for fishing said
A Philip jackson to himself as he
awoke bright and early and re-
membered with delight that it was a
holiday and that his father and mother
We're going to spend the day at Sausa-
Ito with some friends, which would
give him the long desired opportunity
to slip over to the boathouse, where he
could sit unmolested with his rod and
line for several hours; for If there was
one thing that Philip dearly loved it
was fishing. When but years old he
had been taken by his grandfather to
the rivers bank and instructed in the
art of wooing the wary trout from
their home beneath the shining surface,
so that he was able to exercise all the
patience required by the successful
fisherman, and the days on which his
parents visited their friends at Sausa-
Tito were indeed red letter days to
Philip.
With his fishing basket on his arm
and rod in hand Philip jumped off the
car as it turned the curve at the ferry
and ran across the square to his friend,
the worm man. in Commercial street
for his usual supply of bait. Today the
worm vender was generously inclined
and gave Philip, in addition to the
dozen long, fat worms, half dozen
clam necks and three sardines, so that
the lad felt quite jubilant as he hur-
ried back to join his parents at the
ferry house.
An hour later Philip having made
his excuses to the friends, sat con-
tentedly on wooden sawhorse, cut
ting UP his worms and batting his
hooks.
The boathouse was deserted save for
the solitary fisherman, who, as he
raised his rod occasionally and flung
his line far out, indulged In a few
rosy hued day dreams. Suddenly a par
ticularly fascinating plan was dis
turbed be a merry peal of laughter and
skidding feet.
Hello, fisherman, how are they Bit

hunched up his red sweater as he

sawhorse to answer two boys slightly

Philip replied. ''but they will soon,
when the tide comes in. I'll have that
basket full Of the finest little rock cod
you ever saw before 1 go home"
One of the Lowell boys. catching the
tackle of a boat, caught his foot in
the rope and swung himself out over
the water, back and forth several times
with one arm extended, like a circus
performer doing trapeze act Once,
missing his balance and his hand slip
ping on the smooth new rope, the
boy nearly fell into the water His
companion uttered a warning cry, and
Philip smiled in dersion.
Whats the matter?" he asked. He's
not afraid of little wetting l hope,
on hot day like this?'
mo" answered the other boy, "but
he can't swim and neither can I, so
it might be more than wetting, don't
you know
Philip pursed his mouth in a long
drawn whistle. 1t seemed strange to
him that two boys already in high
school should not be able to swim,
he himself having been "a swimmer
since his sixth year. AT that early
age his grandfather had initiated him
into the mysteries of swimming, along
with his never to be forgotten in
structions about fishing How glad he
was now that he had been favored
with such a wise and jolly grandfather.
"Cholly Cholly, come here quick;
mamma wants you; cause were all
going for long. long walk, and you
may have to carry me-" called a wee
speck of humanity, dainty bit of
pink dress, white bonnet and long,
floating curls, and the larger OF the
Lowell boys picked his small sister up
in his arms and went to join his mother
on the hotel veranda. whence came
sounds of merriment mingled with the
strains of music. Saying "Goodby"
to Philip. the other boy, the one who
had been doing the trapeze act, fol-
lowed his friend,
Just then Tony, the Italian boy who
washed dishes in neighboring cafe,
rowed by in boat.
"Hey," he called to Philip. "Got
enough bait? Do you want some nice
worms? Here, catch! A feller left these
this morning, and you en- have EN-"
Philip, leaning forward, extended his
hands and caught the crumpled pack
age which Tony flung to him, and, not
to be outdone in generosity called in
his turn:
wait a minute, you can have this
crab. 1 brought him up on my line, but
my mother won't let me take him home
because he amt big enough according
to law; his back amt six inches across"
Tony grinned as he received the crab,
and with a deft stroke of his oar
showed his boat alongside the landing
and disappeared from view. In Is min
