While the atoresdomg a cash business

the one who gets the trade and the

From errors whish are uotiseuble
every day, it would appear even to the

every Sunday school teacher should em

stance, a boy of 8 years was sent to
Sunday school the other day for 'ho
first tirno. When being questioned as
to his impressions, he admitted wi‘u
some hesitation that they wero by no
means favorablo. Being pressed for
an explanation he said that the teacher
had told her class that sho had a broth
er w ho ouca killed a giant tan feet high,
which the boy plainly considered to b#
• great stretch of. tke imagination to
say nothing of the truth. Of course,
his parents made the proper suggestion
about David and Goiia'h, but judging
from the boys demeanor the seed fell on
strong ground.
