Breaking it Gently.

Yes, remember that anecdnte." the Sun
day School superintendent said. with the old
pathos In his voice, and the old sad look in
his eyes. '1t was about simple creature
named Higgins, that used to haul rock for old
Maltby- When the Iameuted Judge Baglev
trippled and fell down the court room stairs
and broke his neck, it was great question
hoY to break the news to poor Mrs Racley
But finally the body was put into Higgins
wagon. and he was instructed to take it to
Mrs. b, but to be verv guarded and discreet
In his language, and not to break the news 10
her at once. but to do it gradually and gently
When Higgins got there with his sad freipb,
he shouted till Mrs, Baeley came to the door.
Then e-said. "Doea the wilder Bagley
live here pr
1.-The deiaowiBssley? No sir ~
I'm bet she does. But have it your own
way. Well, does .Js,agss' Bssle1 live here? ?"
