“Samuel,” said Mrs. Sternwife, ‘‘you
havS not yet told me what good re
solve you have made since your birth
day.”
“Why, my dear,” protested Sam,
“you know that I have no small vices
or bad habits at all. Don’t you know
that you have induced me to stop
card playing and smoking and drink
ing and going out at nights, and
everything else I used to think that
1 wanted to do?”
"Yes, my dear,” answered Mrs.
Sternwife; “but it sometimes .seems
to me that you read the advertise-
mehts of liquors ar.i cigars with a
sinful satisfaction. It would be better
for you if you should sternly and
firmly resolve to shun them here
after.”
And poor Samuel shrank farther
and farther into the nice new house
coat that she had made for him from
her dolman.

rival having set up on the opposite
side of the street, confided to his min
ister that he saw nothing for it hut
to close his shop and leave the town.
The clergyman suggested that per
haps he had not made serious efforts
to retain the trade; hut the butcher re
plied that he had done all he knew,
without success.

tried the effect of prayer?”
No, he had not thought of trying
prayer, but he w’ould do so before put
ting up the shutters.
A week elapsed, when the minister,
chancing to pfiss the butcher’s shop,
found him radiant with delight.
“Well.” the cleric asked, “did you
try the power of prayer?”
“Oh, yes,” was the reply, 'and I wish
I had’ ‘tried it before. I prayed the
very night you left me. and on the fol
lowing morning the fellow across the
street broke his neck.”
