Tho prassh paused, looked up to the sing.
Ing seats. ul,d with d grave face, said:
II would thank tho musicians not to
tuno their instruments during setvlcH: il
annoys mo very much!"
Tho people stared; and the minister pro-
cceaod.
"Boo:woo-woo." went tho 6un again; a.
no drew nearer tho church,,
The parson paused agar I'd addressed
the choir: -:
"Ircally wish tho singer s;ould not tune
their instruments while l am piSaclling."
The congregation Uttered, fo~ they knew
whnt.tho real causo of the disturbance was.
Tho old parson went OH ugan, and he had
just about started good when "boo-woo-

Tho minister paused once more and ex.
claimed:
II have requested tho musicians in the
gallery not to tuno their instrument during

This was too much. L-got up, too much

The World describes the loyal lecture
goers as follows:
The male has a shiny forehead, a wide
smile, plauditory umbrella, and general
air of lank loyalty. The female reioices in
a volumnious red shawl, frosty nose, and
an aspect of repulsivo intellectually, and
manifests delight by stage whispers to her
neighbors, and smile which is like the
cracking of an iceberg. With these are
mingled, when Miss Dickinson attracts,
