| PREAcHISG A PRACTICAL SERMON
A number Of years ago, parson B.
preached in town in the interior OF
Of this state. A sound thcolosian was
Parson 3d.. asa published solumn
o his Sermons evince /; but like many
clergynen Of thc past generation, he was
too much given to preaching "doctrinal
sermons, I" to the exclusion ofepra0tical
themes at least 80 thought one Of his
parishioners, Mr.. c.
"Mr. B." said he, one day, 70
the clergyman, 1--WE know all abous tia
doctrines by this time. Why don't yea
sometimes preach us real practic~
discourse :" - g fa4
ooh, very we'll. If you wish it :
will do SO. Next Sunday l viii preach
. practical sermon" % 81 aea afsf
Sunday morning came; and an unusu-
ally large audience, attracted by the re-
port Of the promised novelty, were In
attendance. The preliminary services
were performed, and the parson announc-
ed his text. After t'opening his sub
ject, +" he said be should make a practi-
cal application to his hearers. He then
commenced at the head Of the aisle,
calling each member of the congrcga-
ton by name, and pointing out his spec
ial faults. One was little inclined to
indulge in creature comforts ); another
was terrible man at q bargain, and SO
on.
While in mid volley, the door Of the
church opened, and Doctor S--enter-
ed. es s3s taaissib sea. faseo
e'Therc," went on the parson, "there
is Doctor s., coming in the middle
of the service, just as usual, and distur-
.bmg the whole congregation. He does
it just to make people believe that he
has so large practice that be can't
get time to come to church in season,
but It isn' t so-he hasn't been called to
visit patient on Sunday morning for
three months. a.t
Thus went on the worthy clergyman.
At last came Mr. c., who had re-
quested practical sermon. ts cH
as"And now,'' said he, there's Mr.
G.; he's merchant,-and what
does he do Why he stays at home on
Sunday afternoon, and writes business
letters. Ifhe gets a lot Of goods up
from New York on Saturday night, he
goes to his store and marks them on
sunday, so as to have them ready for
sale on Monday morning. That's how
he keeps the Sabbath and he isn't sat-
is6cd with doct-aal sermons ; he wants
practical ones"
At the conclusion of the service, the
parson walked up to Mr. c., and
asked him how he liked the practical
sermon" 0k .5-.-- q
"Mr B was the reply, "preach
just what you please after this, III
never attempt to direct you again.

< DrDN'r TAKE THE NEWSPAPER
Some time ago lady noticing that.
neighbor was not in her seat at church
one Sabbath, called on her on returning
home to enquire what could have hap
pened to detain SO punctual an attend
ant. On entering the house she found
the family busy at work. She was sur
priscd when her friend addressed her.
Why, la !! where have you been to-
day, dressed up in your Sunday clothes?'
TO meeting m ~ ve
why, what day is it?' ~
Sabbath day
sSal, stop washing in minute Sab
bath day! Well, 1 didn' know, for my
husband has got SO plagy stingy that he
won't take the papers now, and we don't
know q, ng-vell, who preached ?
what did he preach about7
1T was on the death Of our Saviour
Why is he dead FL didn't knosc he
,cas SICK !! Well, all Boston might be
dead and we know nothing about it 1T
won't do, must have the newspaper a.
gain. for everything is wrong without
the paper! Bill has almost lost his read
ing, and Polly has got right mopish
again, because she has no roetrv a
read. If We have to take cart loa.. -
potatoes and onions to market, I mus !.
have newspaper
