A STORY WITH A POINT TO IT.
Here is a very good story, con
densed: A rich Chicago man dreamed that
he went to heaven, that St. I'etcr met
him and took him to the house pre
pared for him. They went past many
beautiful mansions, one of them an
elegant affair, licing the abiding place
of his former washer-woman. They
kept going, the houses looking poorer
and poorer, when they came in front
of a shack, and St. Peter said: "Merc
is your place." The rich Chicago man
objected, remarking that he had lived
in a much fiw-r house in Chicago.
'Well," said St. Peter, "this is all
you sent up here."
lfe awoke with a start, appreciating
the lesson. He had been living for
himself and the pleasures of the world
lie at once began living for others,
building for the future and eternity, in
good deeds and bencvolencics.
An Albany merchant once told this
story to a minister, who used it in a
sermon, ami at least one conversion
resulted. There is a lesson in it worth
considering.
ALBANY'S PAVING SPIRIT.
Albany is to be congratulated upon
the sentiment which prevails among
her citizens in fnvnr of improving her
streets as ast : .. .1 is consistent un
der existing conditions. Everybody
seems to fully realize the importance
of paved streets. From every direc
tion in cilies where the civic spirit
rnns high and progress has been rapid,
comes tnc report that properly im
proved streets have had the lion
share in the credit therefor Alhnnv
