"Gentlemen," he was accustomed to tards. Three young ladies were staying at his mother's house.

Without revealing the purpose, he craftily broached the subject of cook ery, led the girls to boast of their skill, and then suggested that they should compete in making boiled custard Each competi tor should have the e materials and opportunities, and 1? allowed a private room as her peculiar kitchin. The proposal was merrily accepted, and it was also agreed that the young man and his mother should act as ju rors to decide on the merits of the custards. When the three custards were produced, Fanny's was so clearly the best that the two jurors did not hesitate to proclaim her the victor. Three days later Fanny was engaged to the youthful epicure, and three months later thev were married. About a year after the marriage it was discovered that in interval letvveen the agreement for the tournament and the time for entering the lists Fanny had briled the housekeeier with two sovereigns to furnish her with a half pint of cream, in addition to the i?iec ified materials. She made the victim of her artifice an excellent wife, nevertheless, and years after was heard to say, "My dear girls are all that I desire. They are , 1,.1,.

The devil probably loves a stingy man. Happiness is never found by running after it. Every good woman is a conta.it minder that God lives. re Trials may frighten, but they cm not hurt a child of Iod.

It is when the devil looks least like a devil that he is mot dangerous. When you go to church to pray for a revival don't wear shoes that squeak. A disinterested act of kindness is something the carnal mind "an not ex plain. The sermons that do the mo-t to save the world are not preached jn pul pits. Hunger and thirst after righteous ness is sure evidence that the face i toward God. Some ieople are always blaming God for the trouble- they bring upon themselves. One reason why jieople make cnv.k ed paths is lecause they keep looking back. The principal work of unUdief is to make a foundation of sand look like solid rock. It is seldom that a man with big in come is ever permuted for rightful ness' sake. Whenever the world comes face to face with unselfish love it has to (-top and think.
