In Georgia they tell of a young
clergyman, newly settled over a large
parish, who had occasional fits of en-

One Sunday, after reading notice of
woman's missionary meeting to be
held In the chapel a few days later,
he endeavored to add a special appeal
of his own for a large attendance.
After stating that IL was to be a
meeting of great interest and import

With flushed countenance he
stopped and retraced his steps.
