YES, SIR said Dunning. bat my friend wa

shamefsced, made his appearance
Dunning fell back step In mute aston

Ticker pointed to the elder clergyman.
Dunning looked at him In blank bewil-
derment.
The explanation Of all this, my young friend,
said the Doctor, lis that your friend couldn't
write sermon; 80 he visited my church last
Sabbath and took mine, which he gave you as
his own. When he found out what had come Of
II, to save you, he called on me and acknowl-
edged It, like man.
Il am very sure, SIR said Dunning, looking
at Sam, reproachfully, that I didn't do 1t from
choice, for had sermon prepared on the eff
cacy Of sacramental grace, which pledge You
my word Is original
well, well,' said the Doctor, 4 don't blame
you for what you couldn't helps and he turned
to speak to Ticker.
Meanwhile the young lady, whose nerves had
been much wrought upon by her fathers anger,
gave way to the revulsion Of her feelings. The
tears i,ould come, and she walked to tho win
dow to conceal them. Dunniug followed her
quickly.
we had stormy time before your friend
came in,' she whispered. And am sure father
suspects something about Us, but II wouldn't do
to tell him nop.
Dunning glanced over his shoulder. They
were partially hid by the curtain, and tho Doc
tor stood with his back toward them; 20 hc
gently stole his arm about the waist Of the
daughter and whispered word, Of encourage
mcnt and hope.

his good humor amazingly. you young Amer

you seal my sermons, and you'-he turned to-
ward Duuniny-'well should say you were

Frank, catching her by the hand. Come, let

Il did not mean to steal her, Doctor he said,

Cd, and Dunning, with grave dignity, ascended
the pulpit, and announced and read the tsIt.
The pastor, sitting in the caanoel, allowed q
faint smile to futter around his lips, Is he
thought to himself: III that boy knew that was
my last Sundays text, he would not be % will
ing to preach on It.
Utterly oblivious to oil this, Dunnlng plunged
into the merits Of his discourse, boldly, and
with confidence. As one familiar sentence after
another fell from his lips the smile faded from
tho Doctors countenance, aud he bent his head
TO assure himself that he was not mistaken.
Then he grasped the arms Of his chair, aud
leaned slightly forward, listening in breathless
attention. In few minutes the sexton rccog-
nised the familiar style, and compared notes
with his assistant One by one the pillars Of
the congregation made the like discovery, and
whispered It to their wives, and nodded in af-
frmation to the inquiring look Of the brother
across the aisle. The Doctors daughter, too,
sat 10 blank amazement, her whole face crimson
st the incxplicable fraud, while Dunning, In
happy inconsistencies, thundered into the ears
Of the congregation the saving lessons Of his
sermon.
Not one Of these escaped the eye Of Tckler,
to whose pricking conscience the shirt Of Mes
sus was Incompatible. And when Dunnlng
wound up with the Doctors powerful perors-
ton, Sam mentally ran over all the quotations
he could think of having reference to hiding
places, beginning with the rocks and caves
that he desired to fall upon him, and ending
with an application for tho lease Of lodge In
some vast v 'lderness.

TIE LAWYERS SERMON.


half dozen Seniors was gathered to smoke a
pipe apiece and discuss their approaching grad
uation. Four were seated around the table,
with their feet thercupop. their chairs tipped
back and hypothetical mercschsums ct their
lips. diligently offering burnt sacrifices to their
patron saint, and mounting in prospective on
smoke-wreaths to unattainable castles In some
ever rcccding Spain. At the window sat an
other, upon whose face unctuous good-naturc
seemed striving with acert'iu sanctimonious
gravity for the controlling expression. The last
one Of the party lay stretched out on the bel,
with his feet elevated on the foot board and his
eyes fixed sobcrly on the ceiling.
Smoking Is serious business with students,
and there was silence In the room for the
space Of halfa minute.
