BERTHOLD A. BAER. There are two kinds of men: the planner and the doer, _.One is eternally contemplating and planning, while “HEL ber one is doing. Mr. Frank E. Campbell, founder of The Funeral Church, Broadway at 66th Street, is a doer. With great foresight he planned The Funeral Church, and then car- ried out his plans with an energy, swiftness, and under- standing of the needs of this greatest City of the Universe which took every one by surpri : Soon the inhabitants of “The City of the Homeless,” as New York is often called on account of the millions who live in apartments and in hotels, began to realize the mission of The Funeral Church, and to appreciate its need, its completeness, and perfect understanding of the care of the demised. Today The Funeral Church is accorded the foremost p’ace in this country, if not in the world, as the Home of the Demised, where the dead are honored and the living find consolation. - Writes Mp.C. H. S.: “I appreciate more than I can tell the very p! t way in which you handled the situ- ation and extended special consideration to me at a time when I needed it.

He grumbled over the distance, as is the way of taxi-drivers. But Shirley's persuasions overruled him, And they sped away. “Freedom!” said the young girl softly to herse!’, her pretty cheeks aglow, eyes shining. “Freedom at last—thank heaven!” In the midst of this new “heady” feeling of exhilaration smouldered and glowed her wrath against poor David Burke, “Tl never forgive him for the mean, deceitful way in which he engineered the engagement!” she kept repeating to herself, Yes, he had got what he deserved! * But oh! how her heart ached for tm! “I've treated him though it wasn’t my fault!” thoughts ran riot. ‘Things would surely soon be righted.

He looked first at Lucille, then at Shirley, and there was a queer mixture of emotions on his face. But Shirley stepped up to him, wrenched the engagement ring from her finger, and almost flung it at him.

It was in vain that Burke protested, pleaded. Shirley was deaf-eared and adamant. on “What on earth will my sister say” he had said over and over again, em- barrassment mingling with his disap- pointment. “She can mind her own business— something new for her!" Miss Shir- ley answered tartly. That young woman was considerably “strung up. “Shirley, you mustn’t run away like this. ‘It—it looks awful!” Burke was distracted. “Who cares what Certainly I don't!” with energy. Then she descended to the library and wrote a little note for Mrs. Arnold, to the effect that circum- stances had arisen which made it quite impossible for her—Shirl trespass further on Mrs. Arnold's hospitality, She added that the en- gagement was broken off. This note she placed mantelpiece of the library “Would you mind asking one of the maids to call me a taxi?” She addressed her quondam fiance stiffly. “Shirley, I'll do nothing of the scrt!” He seized the letter she had written to his sister, and tore it into “You're a foolish, reckless I forbid you to run away like it looks like?
