Grows in that land. And Jesus shall be 
near, 
Who wept at Lazarus’ bier. — 
Sing on, sweet Bird! 
pain 
Do thou thy song restrain. 
Not for our grief or 
Sing ! till shall echo in our stricken hearts 
The joy thy song imparts. 
Sing! till to every sorrowing soul shall reach 
The lesson thou dost teach!

In His Own Home a Man Is 
At His Best, Says Mr. Brewster. 
Rey. E. H. Brewster preached an- 
other of his sermons on ‘What 
would Jesus do?” at the Baptist 
church in Manchester last Sunday 
evening, his theme being: “If He 
was head of the house.” His talk 
was very interesting. 
“Woman, behold thy son; son, 
behold Thy mother,” taken from 
John XIX: 26, 27, was his text. 
“A man is seen at his best or at 
his worst by his own fireside,’ he 
said. “On the battlefield his whole 
anatomy conforms to the enthusi- 
asm of the occasion; he is at his 
best,—in a patriotic sense. But it 
is in the home, by his own fireside, 
that we can see the man. 
“A woman becomes more woman- 
ly when she is in her own home by 
her own fireside. Gladstone, who 
could move parliament by his words, 
was at his best in his home. Christ, 
wherever He went, realized the 
sweetness of home life. What 
would He do today? 
“He would appreciate the claims 
of the home. . It is sad to think that 
there are today people who are con- 
tinually scattering ashes instead of 
sprinkling love upon their hearth- 
stone. In the moments of prosper- 
ity as well as in poverty there should 
be reflected the vision of the home. 
“Do you suppose the squandering 
of money, and vice, is in any way 
administering to the welfare of yout 
home? No! 
“TI believe Christ, were He here 
today, would first of all make pro- 
vision for his home. He would pro- 
vide shelter for His family. It is a 
good thing to own one’s own house.

Christ would also provide for the 
comfort of His family. He would 
see there was harmony in the 
home,—the essential to home life. 
“When you get a religion into 
your home you have something 
that promotes harmony.” 
Fire in Summer Cottage 
* At Manchester, Sunday. 
Sparks from an open fire place 
were responsible for a roof: fire at 
the Dane house on Smith’s Point, 
last Sunday morning, occupied by 
Mrs. F. H. Morgan, her son and 
daughter, of Worcester, and a party 
of young people who were at 
the house over Sunday. 
Shortly after 9 o’clock a passerby 
noticed smoke curling up from the 
roof of the house and ran quickly 
to Box 62 at the head of Beach 
street. Driver Page was out with 
the horses at the time the alarm 
sounded, and was filling the water 
cart at the foot of North street, but 
before the sound of the first blast 
had died out he was galloping down 
School street and was hitched into 
the chemical. The hose wagon was 
also taken out and in a few minutes 
both were at the fire, which was 
soon put out. 
So much were the occupants of 
the house pleased with the quick 
and efficient work of the depart- 
ment, that a box of good Havanas 
were presented to the firemen. A 
hole about four feet wide was 
burned in the roof, and the damage 
will be about $30. The house is one 
of the first summer cottages built on 
Smith’s Point. 
Ratified Mr. Lincoln’s Call. 
At the adjourned meeting of the 
First Congregational parish, Man- 
chester, Monday evening, the re- 
cent action of the church .in voting 
to call Mr. C. Arthur Lincoln of the 
Hartford Theological Seminary to 
the pastorate of the church was rati- 
fed, anda committee was chosen to 
co-operate with the church in mak- 
ing arrangements for Mr. Lincoln’s 
irstallation. 
Very little else was done at the
