PiOus Smiles.

A clergyman of ordinary abilities asked
for a license to preach. az grant YOU
permission" said the Bishop, but ma
ture forbids it,"
Blessed are the peacemakers." So
thought practical woman at Rochester
England, recently who broke up fight
by turning scalding water down the back
of one of the combatants.
The following announcement appeared
recently in an English paper: St
James Church-On Sunday next the
afternoon service will commence at
half-past three, and continue until further
notice."
Take away your Spartan boy and his
fox. The lad who puts lighted cigar
in his pocket when he meets his father
and tells what the Sunday school teacher
said, while the cigar is burning him, is
infinitely more worthy of admiration.
1t may be too fanciful reflection,
but it strikes us that the undertaken,
when he gets to heaven himself,
must be received rather coolly, as
it were, by the assembled COM
pany. Should he go to the other place,
his reception will be warm enough-by a
large majority.
A Scotch minister meeting one of his
parishioners, asked her if she was pleased
with the sermon that he had preached
the previous day. On receiving reply
in the affirmative, he inquired if she
understood it all "Eh, mon" ex-
claimed the lady, "would l hae the pre-
somtion 2"
A kind-hearted clergyman asked con-
Wet how he came to be in Jail. The
fellow said, with tears in his eyes, that
he was coming home from prayer-meeting,
and sat down to rest, fell asleep, and
while asleep the county built a Jail
around him, and when he awoke the
jailer refused to let him out.
Far be it from us to doubt the word
of brother editor" say the La Crosse
Sun. We believe them all to be
truthful men; but, when the Durand
Times says that water is so low at the
mouth of the Chippewa River that cat
fish have to employ mud turtles to tow
them over the bar, we feel as though
the editor must be away, and some local
minister filling his place"
North Carolina negro hymn:
shake the dus' off OBJ my feet,
IN walk barefoot on the golden street
Nsow my hides chuck full OBJ sin,
But l Snow old Pete will let me in.
CHORUS.
Den rise, children up in a croxd,
An shout au' sing to de angels loud;
An fix your eyes on de FAD OBJ rest,
kase hell am rot al iYsrEets nest
Recently when bishop Whitaker, of
Nevada, visited Typo the services were
held in a hall where the growls of the
tiger are constantly heard. Just as the
reverend gentleman had finished an i'm
pressive prayer, and in the silence which
always follows an orison in pious
congregations, and before amen" could
be said, loud voice from the adjoining
apartment shouted solemnly, Keno"
A smile came over the faces Of the pious,
and the worthy bishop did his best to
preserve his equilibrium.
The crop of tides" says the Boston
Bulletin, is unusually large this year.

Grating the Walnut.-A correspond
dent says: We have in our field, some
distance from the house, a very fine
walnut, the oily nuts of which I find
beneficial in relieving severe cough to
which | am subject. Last spring sent
orr little boy for limb of this tree to
graft into small Seeding walnut that
stood in our yard. The limb he brought
me looked more fit for crows nest
than a grating scion; but | cut three of
the best scions that | could, sawed off
the top and the one side branch of the
little bush and set two CRAFTS in the
main stock and one in the side branch;
the last one was superfuous. Every
time passed that way found it nee
essary to let out the sap and tighten the
wax. The poor thing seemed determ-
mined to cry itself to death. Not until
after the pear and apple CRAFTS, set at the
same time, had made a growth of several
inches, did the walnut gratis begin to
show signs of growing, but when fairly
started they grew with surprising rapid
ity, and when they shed their leaves in
the fall the largest graft measured five
inches in circumference and over seven
feet in length, with lateral nearly
three feet long; the next was a single
shoot nearly as large as the first; the side
graft was twice twisted out of place by
storms, yet made growth of nearly six
feet in length, but was not near SO large
in circumference as the other two.
