Sauce FOR the Gander.
In the early days of a certain club
of New York. when it was rather
harder shedding for the club than it is
at the present time, in a meeting of
the council the question came up as
to the arrears of members dues, and
the treasurer reported that one man
was particularly recreant in this regard.
1t was in the winter, and the club was
then maintaining throughout the day
and evening beautifully heated and
lighted quarters. At this time the
only person in the club who fire.
Quented it every day was this de-
linquent. who, in addition to doing q
large portion Of his writing there, was
accustomed to make considerable in
roads upon the stationery of the club
for home consumption.
At the meeting of the council re-
ferred to there was protest against
this state of affairs, and q determina-
ton was manifest to put an end to it,
and after discussion the secretary was
instructed to notify the member in
question that his name had been
dropped from the rolls of the club
The question then arose whether
there was anybody else who was in ar
rears. whereupon the treasurer report
ed that this was true of another men,
ber.
"Who can that be? Let US make an
example of them bOth." remarked one
member, bringing his fist down on
the table for emphasis. The reply
was that it was Mr.. X, the poet.
"Oh. heavens| replied another. 1--WE
can't let X. 60 He's too important to
the club"
WhereupOn the resolution was then
amended to read as follows: Re
solved, that the secretary be instruct
ed to drop the name of Mr.. Q. from
the rolls Of the club for nonpayment
of dues and to retain the name Of Mr..
X. for the same reason. Century.

THE COUNTRY BANKER.
His Standing In and His Grip Upon
His Own Community.

His Own Community.
The first public convenience a new
commodity wants is a bank. Ofttimes
it comes before the church or a news
paper; but, as a rule. it follows both.
It Is hard to beat the editor and the
preacher.
If the influence exercised by the
bankers of our great cities constitutes
a menace to the public welfare. what
shall we say of the grip that the little
bank holds on its community? The so
called country banker" to succeed
must be eminent for all the qualities
that make up a truly good man. Usu-
ally he is a church member and often
a Sunday school teacher He is con-
suited by politicians regarding the local
government, and the candidate who
has his appreciation is envied. for he is
usually the winner. TO the country
banker are confided the troubles, do
mestic as well as financial. of all who
have access to him. And everybody
seeks to have access.
The banker is first to subscribe to
every good cause. He is the COM
munlty's adviser as to investments and
the arbitrator of its business contro-
versies. His word is as good as his
bond. and to his credit it must be
added that. with rare exceptions. it
deserves to be. He asks few favors,
and these are always granted. He is
the center of the social life of his vi
cinity. His voice is that of authority.
He is loved. respected. admired and
feared. The banker is a man of in
tegrity. The slightest cloud on him or
on his bank will settle them both. In
this matter he stands with the preach
er. So. from selfish considerations, If
from no other. the banker must be de-
serving Of the trust repOsed in him
by his fellow citizens.
Who wouldn't be the country bank
er?-Leslie's.
