Pretty, indeed !

A minister Of fine descriptive power was on
one occasion preaching about heaven, and to
show the absurdity of Emanuel Swedenborg
on the subject, drew a graphic picture of the
Swedenborgian heaven, with its beautiful
fields, fine houses, cows and pretty women
and in the midst of his glowing description a
good old sister, carried away with the scene,
went INTO raptures, and exclaimed:
"Glory, glory, glory"
The preacher was SO disconnected that he
paused, seeming hardly to know what next to
do, till the presiding elder, in the stand be-
hind him, cried out to the shouter:
" Hold on there, sister; you are shouting
over the wrong heaven"

were expressed in the following brief but very
comprehensive terms" Take the straightest

Willis, when in Germany, bought pair of

And with pretty fingers,
Clasp this about your knee"
I" When day wlth reposes
And begin see,
Unclasp this band OF roses,
And, dearest think Of me :"

A Clergyman, who preached from the text
love one another" gave a humorous turn to
his subject by illustrating it with an anecdote
of two goats who met on the middle of one
plank bridge. But did they fight and try
to push each other into the waterl Oh no :;
but the one laid himself down while the other
stepped over him. Here was friendship here
was love Oh, my brethren, let US all live
like goats !"
