EAGER TO BE AT IT.
An amusing story is told of an old |
Scotch woman who was walking to
church with her family one bright Sun- |
day morning. They were passed by the |
Auld Kirk 'minister, riding at a tremendous
rate, and the old lady said to her I"
children: "Siccan a way to be ridin,' an*
this the Sawbath day! Aweel, aweel,
aweel, a gude man is marcifu' to his
beast.'
Shortly afterward her own minister
rode past at just as furious a pace, and
the worthy old wife cried, "Ah, there
he goes! The Lord bless him, puir
man! His heart's in his work, an' he's
eager to be at it."
ENDED THE DRY Sl'ELL.
She had a voice like a siren, and when
she sang, " 'Mid play sure, sand palaces,
tho weam a rome. Be it averse oh wum
bull there, snow play sly comb," and so
on to the conclusion, there wasn't a dry
eye in the room.?United Presbyterian.

A reviewer in the New York Nation
illustrates his own comments on a certain
new volume of essays 'by a story
that is worth putting into circulation.
Three hearers, he says, of the admired
Dr. X., were talking in the vestibule
after the sermon. "We must admit," remrked
the flrat. "that the doctor dives
deeper into his subject than any other
preacher." "Yes," said the second," and
stay? under longer." "And comes up
drier," added the third.?'Western Chris
tian Advocate.
"Oh, good morning, Miss Passe, I
understand you have given up advocating
'women's rights.'"
"Yes, I am now going for women's
lefts."
"Women's lefts? What's that?"
"Widowers."?Ex.
A little son of a Baptist minister was
one morning in church when he saw for
the first time the ite of baptism by immersion.
He was greatly interested in it
and the next morning proceeded to
baptize his three cats?in the bathtub.
The kitten bore it very well, and so
did the young cat, but the old family cat
rebelled. It struggled with him, clawed
and tore him. and got away.
With considerable efTort he caught it
again and proceeded with the ceremony.
But she acted worse than ever, clawed

"Well?you, be a Methodist if you
want to!"?Lippdncott's.
"Why do so many people rest their
chins on their hands when they are
trying to think?"
"To hold their mouths shut so that
they won't disturb themselves."?Ex.
"The famous epitaph placed on the
monument over her husband's grave by
a woman up in Maine, 'Rest in peace
until I join you,' has almost a duplicate
in a sign on the door of a doctor's office
in a downtown office building," says
George A. Schneider. "This sign reads,
'Do not absolutely abandon hope until
you have seen me.' "?Ex.
