LOOKED LIKE A CLERGYMAN. A Funny Conversation Overheard in a Horse Sar. From tlit Washington l'oat. It is very wrong to play jokes on the clergy, and only very sintul peo ple over do it. There is a newspaper . man, well known on the row, who I -wears the snuggest face, the most ministerial air, and the most clerical spectacles of any man in the business. During a recent convention, which drew several hundred clergymen to Washington, Mack (that isn’t his name) got into a street car lull, of ministers, stumbled half way up the aisle, and caught the eye of a fellow newspaper man. ‘‘Why, Brother Thompson, how do you do?” he exclaimed, grasping his hand and shaking it effusively. Mack eat across the aisle and started a run ning conversation which could be heard all over the car. “Let me see, Brother Thompson, I haven’t seen you since the triennial conclave at Chautauqua in 187'). How is your Buffalo charge getting along? How is Mrs. Thompson? Did you get your salary raised ? No ? That is too bad. I did. I worked my congregation nicely. I had a friend in Cleveland who is on the staff of a secular newspaper, and he was unscrupulous enough to work up a boom for me. there until I received nn offer of 85,000. Of course, my congregation wasn’t goirg to be out bid—ha, ha—and' they saw that 85,000 and went them 81,000 better. This was in May, one year ag >.” The whole car was attention by this time, and Mack was the focus of thirty pairs of curious eyes. “Along in June I sat for my por trait. I got 40 per cent, gross on those, you know. What do you get ? Nothing? Oh! dear, Brother Thomp son, you really neglect your oppor tunities. Let me sec. I received from the church fair proceeds alone last year [the amount was lost in a whisper.] But these portraits were careworn. I sent four dozen of them around to the dear ladies, and it would have done your heart good to see how they worked and raised 8500 to send their pastor off to Europe. “I hear you are thinking of taking a new charge? Is it so? Want to have a chance to work over your old sermons? Been eight years in one place? Well, I donit blame you. I can’t very well. You see I liavc made a good many investments in my city, and it would necessitate too many sacrifices to break the old ties. ■ Still there are other ways. I sue cecded iu negotiating nn exchange of 150 sermons for au admirable series by Dr. Scott of San Frnflcisco. The good man was much pleased. “There, there, oh, dear, dear. I have just called to mind that a family which has been in my church for ten years has just moved to San Francis co, and is going to join Dr. Scott’s ■church. They may remember those sermons. Oh, dear! it may make trouble for Dr. Scott.” Mack chuckled and poked “Broth cr Thompson” in the ril>3 with his um brella. It was a rainy day. “Where is your umbrella, Brother Thompson? Is that it? That is not the sort of umbrella you ought to have. Look at mine. The finest of silk and an elegant silver handle. 1 don’t know whether you ever noticed, but I always have nice umbrellas. You sec mine is a fashionable church, and there is always a good many stran gers at divine service. I have an ar rangement with the sexton to pick out on rainy Sundays the best umbrella left in the vestibule and put it away for me. The reeular pew-holdcrs always take theirs in the pews, and only strangers leave umbrellas in the vesti bule, so I never have any trouble about umbrellas. Ah, here is my street. Good-by, Brother Thompson. Come and see me when you can Good-by.” A babel of whispers ran around the car and indignant glares followed the pseudo clergyman. One venerable parly came down to "Brother Thomp son,” and, note " book in hand, asked the name of “that clergyman.” Brother Thompson struck his forehead with his clenched fist, but for his life could not locate the talkative preacher, and to-escape cross-examination left the car at the next corner. •The Old O.ikcn Dunliet, Tilt* Irnn-hoimd IKi. kot, Tin- .Muss-cover, fl lliickct,’ is very likely tho » i, vaults, or poronlnMmis from tho •a»liei\to tho*!* poisons from the yotusWf si spell of malarial, tVphoid or Liliour, fiver. :m«l to keep t! . bilious ft kidneys iitnl hi vigorous condition, u- Medieal Discovery. 1 crctory organs into nr ii purifvin; ‘ . ..Itliv nml re's (iolden ail tin? cx- ehy cleans ing it from natter from All diseases nil manner of biood-i a wlmt cause they have ai originating from a t"n : ! or drranged liver, or lrom impure » 1no«i.
