A Phillips Brooks Story.

In the Christian Endeavor World the
Rev. Francis E. Clark writes OF his at
tending Andover Theological seminary
with John Cotton Brooks, brother of
the famous Massachusetts bishop and
rector, the Rev. Phillips Brooks. The
writer says:
l recall one repartee which John
Brooks ascribed to his brother Phillips
A famous but sensational Boston
preacher, who soon afterwards fell
from his high estate, being a great
sportsman and decidedly "horsy." had
written much advertised book en-
titled THE Perfect Horse" "Yes,"
said Phillips Brooks, "The Perfect
Horse by the perfect ass" This was
the only sentiment bordering on i'll
nature that ever heard attributed to
this most genial and kind hearted of
men, and this could easily be forgiven
when one remembers the skyrocket
preacher of whom it was said.
