SERMON PREACHED
IX THERTV SECONDS
On a recent Sunday in Oakland,
(.Ml., i» took Rev. J. M. Jackson
just *hirty seconds to preach a
sermon to his congregation in the
Elihrk Avenue Methodist-Episcopal
ciiurch. He said.:
" "How uncouth my neighbor is,'
sa' • 1, as I gazed at him through
tho ueyhole of exclusiveness.
" "How unclean my neighbor Is,'
* iid as I inspected him through
tiie microscope of morals.
" 'How like me my neighbor is."
s iid I. as I gazed into the mirror of
love.
"Let us sing hymn 123."
The congregation gasped as he
-;n>ped from the pulpit, not realiz
ing that the sermon was at an end.
Then the significance of the words
became clear to the hearers, and
they sang.
Tiking It to H»r.
"I'd like ti> kiss that cirl sitting ou
the edite of rhe crowd. But she won't
play •postotllce.' '*

WK#n Nat Goedwin First Gove an lml«
t-tion of Stuart Robion.
Nat Gootlxviii bad Just finished hla
monologue at the Palace one ulght
when William Uarkus, a veteran actor
and ilfeloug friend of the comedian,
said:
"Nat. I remember the first night yon
went on the stajre at lb," Howard Ath
enaeum ::nJ ptfived Ned tbe Newsboy
In Stnnrt Rnhson's prodc -rjon «f 'I.aw
In New York.' You gave Imitations
then, and I never heard better oues
| before or since."
i "Well." replied Goodwin modestly,
"they told me that my stunt went re
markably well that u'.^ht. If you re
member, afler I had responded to sev
en:I encores same of thi ci In the gal
lery shouted. 'In.itate S:us'rt Robson!'
I was afraid to to:ltu!e my maunder,
so I shoo'; my bend. Kti'! they shouted.
'Robsotl. Robson!' tie was standing lu
the wings, and as I came off 1 said:
'What can I do. Mr. Robson? They art
clamoring for nie to give aa Imitation
of you!" "Do." said be In that falsetto
voice so well known to theatergoers of
that period 'Go back and give tbe vil
lains —!"
"On the impulse of the moment I
went through an eutlre scene which
the audience h::d Just witnessed be
tween Robson and a favorite player
named Henry Rloodpood. As I as
sumed each voice, particularly Rob
son's, the applause was deafening, and
at the finish, nfter repeated calls. Rob
son was obliged to take me on and
make a speech..thanking the audience
In my behalf.
"After the p!av Robson said to me:
"Young Goodwin, you have done two
things tonight that I shall never for
get—halted the performance and given
a very had imitation of me. 1 could
have doj'o It better myself.'"—New
York Times.
C-ARLYLE AND HIS WIFE.
A Glimpse of the III Assorted Couple
and Their Home Life.
It Is certain that tbo Carlyles were
an 11! assorted couple. She considered
from the beginning that to marry him
was an act of condescension on her
part The daughter of a country doc
tor of Haddington had descended from
the skies, like Diana to Endymlon. to
marry the son of a stonemason. • • •
Bnt he loved her and was happy In his
lore.
Not so she. Jealous of him as she
was—furiously Jealous—not as a lover,
for there she knew she was safe. But
sho could not bear to think that If she
were famous It was as bis wife, where
as she. knowing herself to l«o brilliant,
would fnln have had him to be known
as the husband of that wonderful Mrs.
Carlyle. It was his success, social and
literary, that she resented. It Irked
her to be In the secoiij place, und she
could not forgive it. * * •
There was something else of which
the lady was Jealous, and that was the
•gony of concentration which her hus
band's work meant for him. At mo
ments her "saeva indlgnntlo" against
"that Carlyle," as she would contemp
tuously call him. passed nil bounds.
One day my aunt went to rail upon
her and found her in one of her tan
trums. "What was the matter?" she
asked. "Oh, my dear. It's just that
Carlyle! Would you believe it. I have
had u headache for three days, and
he's only Just found it out 'I'm afraid
you're not quite well, my dear.' he
said, and all the time he has been
worklug, working! I Just threw a tea
cup nt his bend."—I.ord Redesdale's
Recollections.
How She Won Sheridan.
Harriet Metlbri. the old lime English
actress, did not lack astuteness, even
at seventeen. Her admirable answer to
Sheridan when he asked her to read
the part of Lydla Languish In "The
Rivals," with a view to proving her fit
ness for Drurv Lane, could not have ■
been bettered by a ripe diplomat:
"I dare not. sir. for my life. I would ,
rather read It to nil England Suppose. !
sir. you did me the honor of rending It J
to me?"
Delightedly Sheridan acceded and.
after reading nearly the whole of the
play, enrolled her in the Drury Lane
company.
Classifying Themselves.
"Hello, old man!" exclaimed one man
on meeting a friend on shipboard.
"How are you?"
"First class." said the one accosted I
"And how are you ?"
"Steerage." » *
