As TO Absent Friends.

There is an unfortunate tendency
with some people to talk in dispar.
aging way about absent acquaintance.
"Oh. she's very nice, but" and this
'but" often leads up to a quite un.
necessary and unkind comment. The
golden rule to observe in talking about
people is. to speak exactly as though
they were present, says Home Notes
Everything gains by repetition, and
not always favorably. Bishop Bever-
idge once said: Resolve never to
speak of a mans virtues before his
face. nor of his faults behind his
back" and faultfnders and flatterers
would do well to bear this in mind

EVERY PASTOR A COMPRESSOR.
That's What DR.. Charles M. Sheldon
Would Like to See.

Topeka, May 10.-The Rev. Charles
NJ. Sheldon, pastor of the Central Con-
gregational church. author of in His
Steps," and several other widely read
books, believes that every pastor of a
Protestant church should have con-
fessional, where the members o. his
flock could go to his pastor and pour
their troubles into willing ear and re.
ceive wholesome advice. He does not
in the nature of that followed by The
Catholic church, where forgiveness Ct
sin is given by the father confessor
1t should be place where those
heavily laden with cares and trials
and tribulations could unload their
burdens.
"The relations of the minister to his
congregation" DR.. Sheldon said,
should be such that the members
would be free to go to him and confess
their troubles and receive advice.
do not in the least advocate the doc
trine of the forgiveness of sins, but it
seems to me that the minister in or
and to his flock, ought to make him
self so useful that the members would
feel free to contide in him about any
thing that concerns them. The Bap-
fist Emmanuel church of Boston is
carrying out this idea now. l have
been working along this line for many
years.
&c,
spiritual matter. 1t is place where
people can carry their troubles of
whatever kind or nature, business,
spiritual and religious, family affairs
and purely personal matters. 1t is the
working out of the plan to give more
help to the congregation. Some min
listers work with the idea that their
connection with the affairs of the con.
gregation ends with the preaching of
the sermons and the calls and the per-
functory routine followed by all.
There is much other good work that
can and ought to be done.
The Roman Catholic church has
understood human nature for centu-
ries. The Protestants have not had
this understanding, The Catholic CON
fessional contemplates the forgiveness
of sins, but its chief hold has been in
aiding the members of the church to
bear the burdens they have to carry.
Human endurance will bear up under
certain troubles to a certain extent
and then it snaps. II one is able to
tell his troubles to another in whom
he has confidence and who may be

Omaha Youth Meets Death.

Colorado Springs, Colo, May 10
Staggering into the halfway house on
Pixies Peak Sunday night, blood
stained and with his clothes in tat
ters, Alva Bruner, II years old. whose
family is believed to live in Omaha,
declared that he had been struck down
by rock hurled from the darkness.
The lad was rushed to hospital
here, where he died.
A stab wound, which might have
been selfinflicted, was discovered
above the boys heart, and an autopsy
discloses traces of sulphuric acid, but
Bruner stoutly maintained to the end
that he had not attempted his own life.
Officers are searching the slope of
Pixies Peak for evidence to corrobo-
rate the boys story.
