old man who was dying. The young
minister murmured alphabetically a
number OF confused and clumsy COM

cried sharply. Young man. II you don't

advice, took II like the honest and sim
cere man he was, and he had no peace
until he left the church for good and

minister because he had no Christian
faith. and as soon as he realized bis

humanity In other ways.-Century.
