Anon I sez, "Cousin John Richard, you look wan and pale, but it is a blessed work you are doin'." He had opened a midnight mission, helpin' the weak and tempted and overcome of both sects, preachin' the love of Christ and follerin' his teachin' up by good works.

"We do a good deal in the way of charity work among the churchless and almost homeless city children; and, father, it would do your heart good if you could only see the little ones gathered together learning the first principles of decent living." "Mebbe so," replied the father doubtfully, "but what you doin' in de way of teachin' dem to die decent?"
