Envy and detraction are not the best policy.
TO say nothing Of their meanness, and in many
cases rebound with telling effect upon those
who stOOp to make use Of them
In one of the towns of France, the law
against dishonest bakers is very strict. and
the otficials neglect no opportunity Of enfor-
cling Ii. A short time since, a workman called
on police etflcer with loaf Of bread which
he declared contained injurious ingredients.
The offcer examined it, and being satisfied OF
the justice Of the complaint he took the mat
ter In hand. The loaf contained the stamp Of
the baker X. As he should be obliged TO
apply to several officials, the policeman cut
the bread In four parts, and, putting them
IN his pocket, proceeded upon his errand. As
he passed along, he met the devoted baker
himself, and stopping him, he said:
Mr. X, have little affair In your
line TO attend 10. wish you would give me
your opinion upon this +" And he drew from
bis pocket one Of the four pieces
"Pah ! shocking" exclaimed The baker,
smelling 1t what scoundrel could have sold
such bread as that?"
Gone Of your craft, friend But tell ms, -
continued the French Bucket, " what the in
gradients are: it may be useful in convictiny
him"
The baker carefully smelt the bread again,
and then, with disgust and loathing for the
base offender depicted upon his countenance,
replied:
There is a little of every thing from rotten
beans to bran, mouldy and fall Of worms
But who is the pitiful rascal 90
Il will tell you presently" replied the o.
ncer, drawing the other pieces from his p8cFe-
and joining them together, do you know this
mark?"
Mine ~ calculated the thunder stricken
baker
Exactly" replied the detective but to
rascslly baker took to his heels without ask
ing any further explanations, and i, is -ot
probable he will be able TO give any 1t bis
approaching trial, for out Of his OWE mouth
will he be judged.

PRAYING TO THE PoINT-A certain LAWYER
who, dwelt in one of our New England towns,
noted for bis over-reachings aud short com
lngs, during revival came under the con
vlction, and requested prayers for the further
ance of his conversion. His appeal was re-
sponded to by one Of the saints, an eccentric
but very pious old man, honest, plain,
blunt, square toed and lat-footed, who thus
went at it," We do most earnestly entreatth thee.
y Lord, to sanctify our pentsnt brother, here;
NIL his heart with goodness and grace. 80 that
ne shall hereafter forsaake his evil ways q. 1
follow in the right path. We do know, bow
ever, that il is required Of him who hes arpr0-
priated worldly goods 10 himself unlawfu.ly
and dishonesty, that he shall N axe restitution
four-fold; but We do beseech thee 70 have
mercy on this our erring brother, as IL would
be impossible for him TO do that, and let him
off for the best he can do without becgariny
himself entirely, by his paying twenty Eve
cents on the dollar"
The next supplicant at the same meeting
was an elderly maiden who got her living by
going into different families and spinning for
them. She, also, had been famous for her
short-comings-never giving full counts on her
yarn the forty threads TO knot was a point
which she never reached. The blunt old man
thus briefly disposed of her case "Reforn,
y, Lord, the heart Of thy hand maid here be-
fore thee, We beseech thee; and wilt thou
enable her to count forty
