A STORY OF FLiP DAYs.-The old
Abercrombie House ut Pelham, Mass,
is said 10 have once been the scene of a
practical joke by the Rev. Mr.. Aher
Crombie, The original occupant of the
house and minister OF the town. In his
days, of course, flip was the conmon
beverage Of clergymen and the laity, and
no objections were ever made unless peo-
pile became notoriously over-indulgent.
The charge was finally brought at
church meeting that the minister was
drinking too freely, and committee
was appointed to tell him Of his fault
and warn him of the danger OF contin-
uing in it. Warned of their coming,
the erring pastor told his wife to prepare
the first round Of Flip, which even this
committee would expect, with equal
pats Of rum and water, the next with
more rum. and the next mostly rum.
The committee, soon after their arrival.
partook of the Zip which their pastor
ordered, after which they made known
the nature of their errand.
The pastor admitted that there might
he need Of the reproof, and that he
would be governed by IL. Then came
the second round of flip, and, as the bus.
lness had been disposed Of, the commit
tee were disposed to be talkative and
social with the pastor who had so hum
bly, admitted his sin at theiI rebuke.
The flip came round the third time, and
it 10 said near sunrise the next morning
two of the committee managed to reach
their homes; but the third lay prone on
the floor, unable to stir from the effects
OF the hip until broad daylight. At the
adjourned church meeting, when this
committee made their, is said,
very concise report of their visi: to the
pastor and the kindly way in which he
received the reproof by reporting: ave
