was seeking her Hcttee, with a prior
claim. Hut no, he rame in aight, and
threw himself full length n:i thi ground
n here she had n full view of him a lie
pufle.l hia cigar, herself unobserved.
Whera had ahe aeen him before?
Surely his face waa familiar. Memory
went ransacking nooks and corner,
for the missing linka in ;he chain nf
iissoeiHtioti. Ah I now she hail it, the
picture his preactiee rocailed. A morn
ing in early May, herself behind the
glovi.'-c'onuter of Duck and Suuiiing'a
the last day of her ritay there. A bis,
rlear eyed young mau with n Wculern
tlavnr, she had thought vaguely, was
buying a d..."ii pairs of la lies glove,
and w ith a bashful, conscious air, up
pealing to her taste in his selection of
pale pmk, cream, and corn color. He
lia t worn a big soft hat m:d n diamond
which to tliaci'a not inexperienced
eyes her father ha I been a jeweller
- was of the lirst water.
"iie is genuine as his diamond and
he's in lute,'' hul been her mental
summing up.
He was destine.! ti remain in her
memory, it seeinej. AfU'r he had left
w i tli his purchase, shu found among
tiie gloves strewn on the counter, a
charm, flagrant ami amber-colored,
i )n one side w as a atar and crescent
and the mystical word "Kismet,"
while the other side tvaa covered with
cabolistic symbol.
(irac gave a guilty little start when
this point was reached. She had been
wearing "Kismet" for goo I luck ever
since, ha l if suspended from her neck
by a ribbon at that moment, and there,
a few rods below, was itanwuer. Had
things gone wrinis with him since its
loss? Ha didn't look quite as happy
as the day he had pulled it out of Iim
pocket with some rumple 1 bills, a
Muck and Sunning'. As for things
had gone swimmingly. She bad se
cured a belter position the very next
lyv, an. i ii. si.ies ha i recovered a lost
ring and her purse which he had
dropped on the street.

tickled her throat into a oottgh. Her

cigars always nerve hur this trick. He
would think she had coughed purposely
to attract attention. With that thought
came another cuh which brought
lack Hardy to his feet in an instant.
He craned his neck for a view of the
face above, but it was mercifully hidden
by the skater a'liibonnet.

They sat, talking pleasantly enough,

count tiulil tho papers reported tho
smash-up of the X. Y. 'A. Company.
.She had aent him a amoolh note of
ilisniial, the next day. It was a
bogus report, and wns soon contra
dicted, but it had fulfilled its mission.
Ho had been in lore with a bogus
young woman. It was well to liml it
nut in time, but somehow it took a
fellow down n peg to know that he,
himself, was of such small conscquenco
in a girl's eye.
draco's eyes gave him a fair shade
of discreet sympathy.
"l)o you believe in charms?" ho
iisko.l. abruptly.
"V. f," said (Sraer, with proper de
cision. ".So do I. I lost one I had worn for
years tin- very day I got the mitten.

"Kismet," interrupted (Irace.
"Why? how?" he began, wita alook
under the bonnet.
"I fotiud it," said Orace promptly.
"I've curried it ever since. It has
brought rue lot of luck. I think it is
time now to return it to its owner."
.She took the frasrrant amulet from
her pnrtcnioonae. It was carefully
wrapped in pink tissue.
"How do you kuow it is mine?" ic
asked, as he unrolled it curioiialv.
"There arc others like"

"You. were Vou behind the counter
that day?" he queried. "I did not re-

"No, ( coursn not." said flraee
readily. "Your thoughts were full of
your lady love and her gloves."
"Jt waaa wager," he said absently.
Then, alter a. full minute's silcuce,
"Did did you recoguize me as the
chap Mm saw that morning in the
store?'' he asked.
"Ye. I placed yon the first morn
ing, whoti you lay thereon the grouud
Hiuoking. I meant then to give you
'Kismet' before I left."
"Were you playing saleswoman?"
"Playing? I was earning my bread
and bin tor. Next w eek I go back to
work."
She was determined not to sail un
der false colors.
Hut Jack still looked almeut.
"Did I look awfully spoony that
morning?" h inquired".
l'r.ini her uubonnet Grace saw that
he looked "sheepish" and was actually
blushing.
"Well, no, not Spoony,' but Great
ly interested in the shades of the
gloves," she raturuod demurely, in
tone that mi I... him feel easier."
Just then tho lunch horn sounded.
Jack asked (trace for her New York
address, but she refused it. But he
found her out. He became quite a
regular customer at Duck ie Sunning's.
Mysterious baskets of Mowers were left
at (trace's boarding house. lint she
was proud and he made slow headway.
She heard that Jack Hardy was ridic
ulously rich for a young man of
twenty-seven, and she did not mean to
angle for a rich husband.
But "Kismet" was a link between
them and Jack knew u jewel of a girl
when he saw one.

of rigging t..r his vessel, which is at
tracting attention in New York Har

l lie vessel is a three-master, and er.
riea on the mainmast three square
sails. The mainsail is hung from the
bauds at the croastrees, and above she
carries topsails. When suilmg before
the wind a fore-yard is rigged, for the
vessel made the trip from Sagua,
Cuba, to New York in six day, which
is a whole day ahead of tlu best rec

generation. That chapter is gloriously
ended. Rut that generation has left Us Im
prslon upon this generation.
A sailor was dying on shipboard, and tie
aid to his mates t "Mr lads. I can only
think of one passage of Hcripture, 'The soul
that sinnnth, it sbsll die.' and that keeps
ringing in my ear. 'Tb soul that slnnetb.
It shall die.' Csn't you think of something
else in tbe Bible to cheer me up?" Well,
sailors sre kind, and thy tried to think of
some other passage of Hcripture with which
to eonsole their dying comrade, but they
eould not. One of them said ? "Let ns call
up the cabin boy. His mother wis a Chrlv
Man, and I guess he has a Bible." The cabin
boy was calls.! up, and the dying sailor
asked blm tf he had a Bible. He said "Yes "
but he eon Id not exactly And It. and the dy
ing sailor scolded him snd said. "Ain't vn.i
sshamed of yourself not to read your Bible?"
Ho the boy explored the bottom of hfa tnmlr
and brought out the Bible, and his mother
nsu marked a psssag that just fitted the
dying sailor's case, "The blool of Jesus
Christ. His Hon, cleinsetb fro-n nil sin."
That belpsd the sailor to din In paee. Ho
one generation helps nnother, and good
things written or said or doni are repro
duced long afterward.
During the passing of th last (feneration
ome peculiar event have ualolded. One
day wliilo resting at Hharon Hprin?s. N. Y.,
I think it was in 1ST0. th vnr after mr set
tlement In Brooklyn, end while walking In
the park of that place, I found myself asking
the question: "I wouder il there is nuy
special mission for me to rxvuta iu thi
world.' Ilthnreis. mav Ool show it to nm !"
There soon cam upon me a great desire to
I reach the gosp il through the suculnr print
ing press. I reillxej that the vast majority
of people, evnu In Christian lands, uarer
enter a church, and that It woul t b an op
portunity of usefulness Infinite If that door
ol publication were open j I.
And so i recordrd that prayer In a blank
hook and oftVred tbe prater da; Ic an 1 day
out ontll tbe answer esme. though In a way
different from that which I had exped.
for it came through the misrepresentation
and persecution of enemies, and I have to
reoord It for the encouragement of all minis
ters of the gospal who are mlsripresauted.
taut it tne misrepresentation bi virulnot
euough uu.l bitter enough and continuous
enough there Is nothing that so wldsns oas's
Held of usefulness ns hostile attack. If run
are really doing the Lord's work. The
bigger the lie told about m. the big
ger i he demand to see and he ir what I really
was doing. From one slags of sermonic
publication to another the work has goue on
until weak by wuek, uu 1 for twenty-three
years, I have bad th world for mvau ll.-u
at no tnau ever had. ant to-day mora so
than at any other time. Tin tyndie ues In
form m that my sermons go now to about
aJ.000,003 of people In all lands. I mentlou
this not In vain boast, but as a testimony to
the fad that OoJ answers prayer. Would
Ool I bad better o tcupled the field an I been
more consecrated to the work I May Ood
forglvs me for lack of service in the past anl
double and quadruple anl qiilutuole niv
work in tuture.
In this my quarter eenlitrv s-u-nonl re
cord the fact that side by side with tne pro
oesslou of blessins have gons a procession
of disasters. I am preaching to-lay in ths
fourth church building sluee ( began work In
this city. My ll rat dermon was in toe old
church on Heber nurl.orn streat to an uudi
enoe chlell',- of empty seats, for the church
was almost extinguished. That church tilled
and overflowing, we built a larger uhur-h,
which altar two or thra years disappeared
lull mie. Taen we built another church,
which also In a line of tlery su'tcessiou di.
appeared iu the same way. Taen we put up
this building, nnd may It atan 1 for muuy
years, a fortress of righteousness aul a
lighthouse tor the atom teste I, its gat'aj
crowded with vast asaemhlagi-s long a.ter we
have ceased to frequent them '
We bava raised iu this cUurjh over
030.000 lor church obarit thle purposes dur
ing the praaaut pastorate, while we have
given. 're of all expense, the gospel lo hun
dreds of thousands of strangers, year by
year. I record with gratitude to Ool that
during this generation of tweutv-tlv years 1
remain ber but two Habbaths that I have
mUsad service through anything like physical
Indispositions. Almost a 'an-itio on the sub
ject of physical exercise, I hive main the
parks with whloli our city is blessed ths
means of gooi physical condition. A daily
walk and run in tha op.ui air havj kept uij
ready for work tin t Iu gool humor with all
the world. I say to all young ministers of
the gospel. I.- is easier to keep good health
than to regain It when one lotf. Tha reason
so many good men think the world is going
to tuln is because their own physical con
dition is on tbe down grade. No man ought
to preach who has a diseased liver or an en
larged spleen. Thar are two things ahead
of us that ought to keep us cheerful in our
work iea veu and tbe mtlleuuium.
And now, having come up to tue twenty
fifth mllasioue In my pastorate, I wonder
how many more miles I am to travel? Your
ootnpeny bus been exceedingly pleasant, O
my dear people, an 1 1 would like to tnaron
by your side until th generation with whom
we lira now moving abreast and step to step
shall have stacked arms after the last battle.
UutthaLorl kuows best, aul wa ought to
be willing to stay or go.
Most of you ara aware that I propose at
this time, betwaeu the elose of my twenty.
Ilfth year of pastorate ani before tna begin
ning of my tweuty-sixtli yeur, to be abainat
lor a lew mouths in order to take a Journey
arouud the world. 1 expect to sail from riuu

My place haraou Habbaths will lie lully oo
cuptud, while on Mou Jays and every Monday
I will continue tospeak through tha pnuliug
prase in this aud other lauds as heretofore.
Why do I go? To make pastoral visitation
