You are no longer a struggling printer

Major Crofoot’s office door In that half

feel that they must call and yet have
no faith that the bill will be paid.

A Phillips Brooks Story.
The spirit of love and kindliness to
all which pervaded every word and
deed of Phillips Brooks did not hinder
his keen appreciation of others’ fail
ings and shortcomings or his own.
“Why in the world doesn’t Brown
write his autobiography and have it
published?” said one of the bishop’s
friends, referring to an Incessant talker
and most egotistical man who had been
wasting an hour of the bishop’s most
precious tlihe by a rehearsal of some
unimportant happenings.
“Why, he’d rather tell it, of course,”
said the-bishop, and then like a flash
came regret for the quickly spoken
truth, and he turned on his friend with
a half humorous, half distressed face.
“What do you mean by asking me
such a question as that when I’m off
my guard?!’ he demanded reproach

“Setting the River on Fire.”
In old English times, when each fam
ily was obliged to sift its own flour, it
sometimes happened that an energetic
man would turn his sieve so rapidly as
to canse it to catch fire. The style of
sieve used in those days was called a
“temse,” and it ‘became a customary
saying that a lazy man would never set
the temse on fire. Now, it happens
that the name of the river Thames is
pronounced like the name of this old
flour sieve, and after many years, when
the old fashioned temse was forgotten,
it was thought that setting the temse
on fire meant setting the river on fire,
and that is why today we say that a
stupid person will never set theTiver
on fire.—Ladies’ Home Journal.
