“So you finally projwsed?” said his chum. ‘‘Well, to tell the truth,” returned the thoughtful youth, “l really didn’t know that I proposed, but she accepted me, so I guess that settles it. I tell you tills language of ours is notlto be used lightly.”

-o o it [Copyright. 19U8. by T. C. McClure ) For several years the new church at Hawesvilie remained unpointed and without a cupola. It was owned jointly by the Metlc dists and the Baptists Cue day the widow Larkins set the ball a-rolllng with u view of getting the work done. Not a hint escaped her that she was working for an object. It was eight months later that carpenters began work and it was learned who had raised the money. The painters followe.l the carpenters, and the second coat was hardly dry when (tie bell arrived and was hoisted Into position. There was a grand turnout for t lie first Sunday. The ministers of both denominations were to occupy tho pulpit, and there would be “talks" instead of sermons. To the amazement of everybody who looked over the assemblage the widow Larkins was not present. It was known that she was home, and no one had heard that she was ill, and what had kept her away no one could guess. After the service Parson Turner wended his way to her house to solve the problem. He found her In tears, and the more solicitous lie was the more tears she shed. There is au end tc even woman’s tears, howeter, and by and by the widow wiped hers away and controlled her voice and said: “I am glad you came. I have a confession to make. There are several things that weigh on my conscience, and that was the reason I was not at service Mils morning. Parson, you know I set out all alone to get that carpenter \vo r k done." "I know, and It was a brave tiling of you." "I owned a kicking cow. It was known to everybody in the village that she was a kicker. She has kicked over more of her milk than was ever saved. I would have been glad to sell her for $10. One day a man came along from Cherry Hill, and I sold her to him for $17. I never said a word about her kicking. That $17 bought the first lumber. Do you think I can ever he forgiven for my sinV” *‘Um! LTu!” said the parson to himself. "You were not asked if the cow kicked’f" “No." "Well, I shouldn't worry much. It is quite possible that with other surroundings she may cease to kick at

all.”

“I owned two spotted hogs,” continued the widow. "They were running around the village for a year and were several times complained of ns nuisances.” “Yes; they rooted up my garden last spring.” "Well, a hog buyer came along one day and offered me $3 apiece for them. He drove them away after dark. When lie paid me he paid for three spotted hogs Instead of two. lie must have driven away one belonging to others. I didn't notice the mistake until the drover was gone, and then I did not run after him. I turned that odd hog into more lumber." “Urn! I'm! I can’t exactly see how you can be held responsible for the hog buyer being nearsighted. You might have ruu after him and explained that lie had paid you for an extra hog, but you didn’t think of it until too late. I should say that every hog removed from our village to some distant sphere was a distinct gain for us. A hog in a mtulbole is n nuisance; a hog turned into a cupola of a church is a joy forever.” “You know I went to Chicago about three months ago. I have some worldly relatives there. When I told them of the work 1 was engaged in they were much interested. My brother-in-law Insisted that I put $10 on tho races on a ten to one shot 1 was induced against my will to do it, and my horse came in ahead. I got $100 In cash, and that went into tho cupola. I am feeling now that It was tlie greatest sin of all.” “Weil, I don’t know," mused the parson. “You did not hot through any sordid motive?” “No. I had the canola in mind ail the time.” You dldn t see any of the horses abused or urged beyond their strength?" “No. They really appeared to enjoy it. It was the first time In all my life that I ever bet on a horse race, and I—

‘.TJm! Of course the principle of horse racing Is wrong—very wronghut there are occasions when an innocent person may lie persuaded against his own Judgment. You did not go to Chicago to bet on the race?” “Oh, no, no, no! I didn't know that such a tiling was contemplated.” “It was your brother-in-law who suggested that you lay a wager?”

“It was.”

“And you showed tance for a time?”

“I did."

Well. I don t think the sin is unforgivable. besides, the money lias gone into the cupola and can't be separated from the rest. Is there anvthinc

more?”

“There-there Is!” groaned tho widow ns her tears began lo fall again. “You didn't attend a prize fight I

hope?"

"No I was not so lost ns that My brother-in-law came home one morning and asked how much money I lacked to finish the cupola. I counted up and found It was $12. Ho laughed and threw me over the money.” “That was very kind of kiin,” mused the parson j|. QUAD
