A poor English girl, in Miss
Leighs home in Paris, ill in body
and hopeless in spirit, was greatly
moved hearing childen singing “I
heard the voice of Jesus say” When
they came to the words “weary,
and worn, and sad,“ she moaned
< 1 that’s me, that’s me.”
4 4 Fill it up fill it up ” She never
rested until she had heard the
whole of lhe hymn which tells how
Jesus gives rest to such. By and by
she asked, “Is that true?’ On being
answered, ‘Yes’ she asked, “Have
you come to Jesus? Has he given
you rest? “He has.” 1 Raising her¬
self, she asked, “Do you mind my
coming very close to you ? May be
it would be easier to go to Jesus
with one who has been before than
to go to him alone.” So saying
she rested her heud on the shoulder
of her who watched, and clutching
her as one in the agony of death,
she murmured, “Now, try and take
me with you to Jesus.—The Sun-

One Way of Avoiding Trouble.
H. S. S. Pearse, a Loudon war corre-
spondent, is responsible for this story
of General Buller: The general and
Mr. Pearse came home in the same
boat. Each evening the band played
“God Save the Queen” after dinner on
deck. Of course every Briton stood
Up and removed his head covering. A
number of Hollanders, however, re¬
mained seated and covered. The Brit-
ons were very angry, and it was feared
that serious trouble might follow. The
anxious captain privately consulted
General Buller.
“Sir.” he said, “I wish you would tell
me what you would do under the cir¬
cumstances if you were commander of
this ship.”
“Me!” replied Buller. “1 should ask
the band not to play ‘God Save the
Queen.’ “ -

The colonel has been among the

’at here it is: A western council
; mining a candidate for ordina-
i > the ministry, and one of the
.....uilors wanted to know why he
thought that he had a call to preach,
The candidate said that he had felt
from his childhood that he ought to be
a preacher aud that as he grew older
he had visions which had removed all
doubt from his mind.
“What were those visions';?’ asked
the hard hearted old moderator.
The young man replied that as he sat
on the fence to rest while he was hoe¬
ing corn he would see visions on the
clouds. He had seen the letters “G. P.
C.” as distinctly as if they had been
painted there.
“But what do those letters stand
for?”
“Why, they mean, ‘Go preach Christ, 9 99
was the reply.
“You mean, ‘Go plant corn,’ ” said the
moderator, and the council adjourned.

Custom Versus Liberty.
Congressman Smith of Illinois told
this story of an incident that occurred
at the president’s last New Year’s re¬
ception:. “Wu Tin g Fang, minister
from China, stood in the east room af¬
ter greeting the president and held a
regular reception of his own. Every¬
body knew the minister’s inclination
to ask questions, and when I saw Dr.
Mary WaIker in her male costume
come advancing toward Wu I knew
there would be something doing. She
was presented to Wu.
“Wu looked at her in surprise, if not
astonishment, and then blurted out,

“YOU ARE A LADEE?’
‘You are a ladee?’ and when she said
with dignity that she was Wu asked,
‘Then why do you wear men’s clothesV’
Dr. Mary looked at the minister for
only a second and then retorted, ‘You
are a man?’ And when the minister
bed declared that he was she retorted,
‘Then why do you wear women’s
clothes?’ Wu was taken back for a
moment only and then replied, ‘Be¬
cause the custom of my country allows
me to do so.' Dr. Mary heard, and
then as she switched her head and
walked away she said proudly, ‘Well,
the liberty of my country allows me to
wear men’s clothes.’ That closed the
incident.”

mammy nurse was with her, and it
was evident that Leonora had been in-
strutted to be very polite aud not to
sit down in the presence of the mis¬
tress of the White House unless press¬
ed to do so and. above all, to answer
aii questions promptly. Both the pres
ident and Mrs. McKinley received the
child. They did all they could to make
her feel at home, but Leonora was evi¬
dently a good deal awed. At last Mrs.
McKinley, observing the years, of the
old black mammy, pressed her to sit
down and the child, too, but Leonora
Baid admonishingly to her nurse in an
undertone and holding herself bolt up
right:
“No, mammy, Servants must not
sit.”
“Why, Leonora,” said Mrs. McKin¬
ley, much amused, “mammy’s an oid
woman. And you sit down yourself.”
“Oh, yes’m,” returned the child
gravely. “But, then, I’m people.”
This reply nearly bowled the presi¬
dent over, and he and Mrs. McKinley
smiled broadly. Then Mrs. McKinley
took out her watch, which contains a
portrait of the president. She held it
out and said coaxingly:
“Leonora, you cannot toll me of
whom this is a picture.”
Leonora drew near and scanned the
open watch. A bright look swept over
her face.
“Oh, yes’m! I know who it is.”
“Well, who is it, Leonora?”
“It’s Dewey.”
This was altogether too much for
the president. He went off into a fit
of laughter, long and loud.—“The Con¬
