Heroism Afoat.

1.-The Hero" by L. Frank Tooker. is
a prize aspirant in our Sunday Maya
zine tomorrow. The hero happens to be a
young chap from the Bowery who en-
listed on board an Atlantic sailing yes
sci to get away from some trouble at
home. He knew absolutely nothing of ship
etiquette, and got himself into no end of
hot water. But he was a happy youth.
and also when he gave the big blus-
tering mate a sound thrashing he had
all the others respect. But the craft
was finally wrecked, with only the Bow
cry lad and one OF the mates saved.
Then was when the gangster showed his
heroism-heroism of high order.

Her Secret.
From Lippincott's.


One day a pastor was calling upon
a dear old lady, one of the pillars
of the church to which they both be-
longer. AS he thought of her long and
useful life, and looked upon her sweet
placid countenance bearing but few
tokens of her ninety-two years OF
earthly pilgrimage, he was moved to
ask her, my dear Mrs, s.. what has
been the chief source Of your strength
and sustenance during all these years?
What has appealed to you as the real
basis of your unusual vigor of mind
and body. and has been to you an un-
failing comfort through JOY and sor-
row? Tell me. that l may pass the
secret on to others. and. IL possible,
profit by 1T myself"
The old lady thought q moment,
then lifting her eyes. dim with age.
yet kindling with sweet memories of
the past. answered briefly. "Victuals."

Shifting Ministers.
From the London Chronicle.

One Of Wesley's reasons for shifting
his preachers every three years was
avowedly that they might be able to
preach the same sermon over again to
different congregations. He knew by
experience the difficulty Of sermon-mak-
ing. After a few weeks. he said, a
preacher cannot find matter for preach
ing every morning and evening, NOR
will the people come to hear him. where
as If he never stays more than fort
night in one place he will find plenty of
matter, and the people will hear him
gladly. I know that were I to preach
one whole year In one place should
preach both myself and my congregation
to sleep.

were disappointing to the bulls. as there
was no foreign response to the strength
