The Turn Of the Worn.

Rev. Sylvester Horne, the noted lib
eraI clergyman and M. p. Of London,
was talking at dinner in New York
about charity.
THE trouble with most charity" he
said, is that 1T Is administered in a
grudging. condescending spirit. Char
ity, to have any effect, must be adj
ministered in spirit Of absolute sym
pathy--a spirit, / may almost say, OF
absolute humility. TO uplift, get
underneath, as the philosophic AIDE
well said.
There was once a London lady, the
wife OF millionaire promoter. who
decided, being rather bored, to go in
for charity. SO she rang for her cleo
trio brougham and glided in a Iuxur-
lious way down to the New Cut.
The lady selected the very worst
house in New Cut, and she paid a
call OF about half an hour on the
poor, tired, underfed woman who lived
there. The questions she asked this
woman were supercilious and impertin-
emit The lady had very good time.
But when she came to go her host
ess, whose cheeks were now unwont-
eddy red, rather spoiled her good time
by saying quietly:
We'll goodbye, madam. / don't sup
pose I'll see you again. The fact is,
haven't time to go Summing myself"

little.
He looked up at the sound Of Fabre's 8

came to his lips. The thin. anxious

boys as Barker himself.

Barker took the yellow envelope and
waited until they were alone; and as
the door clicked he ripped 1t and drag

And Mr.. Barker sat down rather
