A good old minister of one of our
New England Baptist churches was
agreeably surprised by the intelligence
from one of his flock that five indi-
viduals had expressed strong desire on
next Sunday to have the .baptismal
rite performed upon themselves.
After its performance, however, he
was somewhat surprised and ehagrined
that only one of the five joined the
society Of which he was pastor.
a few Sundays after the same elder
waited on him with the intelligence
that ten more desired immersion.
"And how many of them will join
the society ?" queried the minister.
"Two, | regret to say, are all we
can depend on" was the reply.
Every WE'LL" said the good old man.
"you may as will inform the other
eight that this church doesn't take in
washing"

THE PINT or ALE.

John Ross Dix relates an anecdote
illustrative of the elements of ease
and comfort which workmgmen are
apt to cast thoughtlessly away, and of
the many helps to independence which
they neglect.
A Manchester calico printer was, on
his wedding day, asked by his wife to
allow her two half.pints Of ale day
as her share of "extra comforts" He
made the bargain, but not cheerfully,
for, though drinker himself (fancy-
ing, no doubt, that he could not well
do without), he would have preferred
perfectly sober wife. They both
worked bard. John loved his wife,
but he could not break away from the
old associations of the ale house, and
when not in the factory or at his meals
he was with his boon companions.
His wife made the small allowance
meet her housekeeping expenses, keep
ing her cot neat and tidy, and he
could not complain that she insisted
upon her daily pint of ale, while he,
very likely, drank two or three quarts.
Once in while the wife succeeded, by
gentle, loving artifce, in drawing her
husband home an hour or two earlier
than usual, and very rarely she per-
suaded him to spend whole evening
in her company.
They had been married year, and
| on the morning of their wedding an.
niversary John looked with real pride
upon the neat and comely person of
his wife, and, with touch of remorse
in his look and tone, he said:
"Mary, wen had nc. holiday sim we
we were wed, an only that / haven't
penny i tn world we'd take jaunt
to tn village to see the mither."
"Would'st like to go, John ?" she
asked. There was tear with her
smile, for it touched her heart to hear
him speak tenderly, as in the old
times. eff thee'd like to 60, John,
I'll stand treat"
"Thou stand treat, Maryl Hast got
a FORUM left thee?"
"Nay, but I'm gotten the pint Of
ale," said she.
"Gotten what, wife?"
"The pint o. ale," she repeated,
And thereupon she went to the
hearth and from beneath one of the
stone flags drew forth stocking, from
which she poured out upon the table
the sum of 365 threepences--e4, lis,
3d.-exclaiming:
"See, John, thee can have the holi-
day."
"Wbat is this ?" he asked in q maze.
"It's my daily pint o. ale, john"
lie was conscience-strieken as we'll
as charmed.
"Mary, hasn't thee had thy share?
Then I'll ha' no more fro this day."
And he was as good as his word.
They had their holiday with the old
mother; and Mary's little capital,
saved from the "pints O. ale" was the
seed from which, as the years rolled on,
grew shop, factory, warehouse, country
seat and carriage, with health happi-
ness, peace, honor and renown.
