A bright woman friend said i
to me the other day :
"ft is my rule never to give a
scohiing without a sugar plum
to go with it.
There is a good deal in the
sugar plum plan. When a man
has stayed out too late at night,
or has left his wife's letter to!
! her dearest friend in his coat j
pocket instead of in the mail!
box, he knows he has done J
j wrong, and the knowlege make- |
J him defiant. He is guarded on
! that side, and is ready to make!
| sharp retort to the tirst re-j
jproachful word.* But he is un-.
i guarded on another side—the'
sugar plum side —and by thisi
, I J

i come in and disarm him and,
j make him feel his meanness so 1

Where the Brothers Wet. ;
Among the stories that have
been brought back by the Phil
adelphia Christian Eiuieavorers
on their return from Boston,one
was concerning a peripatetic of
the bare foot variety,jand a far
mer, who was alfo a church
deacon The latter was taking j
| lunch under his own vine, and!
unto him the peripatetic said :
'•Sir," I am very hungry."
"You haven't been shaved,"
, replied the deacon.
'•No, but I'm very hungry." j
"You're very dirty into the
bargain."
"Ye, but I'm hungry.
"Well,can you say the Lord's
! prayer?"
No, I "can't."
"Will you say it for a piece of
1 bread?"
"1 will."
The deacon started in with
"Our Father," at the same
time cutting oif a slice as he
ienunciated the words. The
| tramp then repeated "Our Fath
ier," then suddenly asked.: —
I ' Did you savour Father?"
, "Yes, 'Our Father.' "
"Stop just a moment," con
tinued the dirty man. "You
' mean your father and my
i father."'
"I do," .answered the deacon.
"Then we are bothers,*" tri
umphantly proceeded the un
-1 shaved.
"Then for ojir father's sake
cut the bread thicker and,
cut it quicker." —Philadelphia
