An Alarm Clock in Church.

The sexton of st. Pauls church, Nor
risania, has come to the conclusion that
there is no sense in using on alarm clock
AS an ordinary time piece. He had one
in the church to inform him when to
ring the bell. He has usually attended
to it himself, but last Sunday morning
his eon wound it up for him. Ii we
could look into that sons eyes once we
think we would be enabled to tell how
it came about but, at any rate, he
wound up the whole clock, just as he
would have done had he proposed going
skating at al early hour in the morn
ing. And then the next thing he did
(Which looks kind of suspicious) was
to set the clock-whose wonted place
was the vestibule-on q window-sill
just behind the Sunday school superin
tendents pew. He probably did not
know exactly at what moment the
preachers head would appear above the
pulpit, for it was while the lesson was
being read, and while the congregation
were as quiet and attentive rs possible,
that suddenly in the back part of the
church there broke upon the startled
air peculiar rafting, clicking sound,
which at one instant seemed like some
thing running down and at the next
like something being wound up to a
dangerous point.
Those of the congregation who were
strangers to the sound winked in anx-
ious apprehension of a coming storm /;
those who had heard the sound before
smiled. The clergymen looked at the
superintendent as though they thought
either that he had something to do with
the noise or had better have something
to do with its suppression. But he
looked az unconscious as though the
r-r-r.attling was not within few inches
of his ears. But the thing ran down
and the lesson went on. An hour or
80 after, in a certain house, another
kind Of lesson was read by sexton to
his son. Westchester Times.

How IL Boy Became Il Commander

There lived in Scotch village lit
tie boy, jennie by name, who set his
heart on being sailor. His mother
loved him very dearly, and the thought
of giving him up grieved her exceed
ingly but she finally consented. As
the boy left home, she said to him
Wherever you are, Jamie, whether on
sea or land, never forget to acknowledge
your God. Promise me that you will
kneel down, every night and morning,
and say your prayers, 10 matter wheth.
er the sailors laugh at you or not.
Mother. | promise you l will,
said jamie and soon he was on a SHY
bound for India.
They had good captain, and as
some of the sailors were religious men
no ono laughed at the boy when he
kreeled down to pray.
But on the return voyage, some oil
the sailors laving run away, their
places were supplied by others, one Of
whom proved to be very bad fellow
When he saw little jamie kneeline
down to say his prayers, he went up tc
him giving him sound box on the
ear, said in very decided tone, " None
of that here, SIR"
Another seaman who saw this, al
though he swore sometimes, was indig-
nant that the child should be so cruelty
treated and told the bully to come up
on deck and he would give him a
thrashing. The challenge was accepted
and the well -deserved beating was duly
bestowed. Both then returned to the
cabin, and the swearing man said,
Now, Jamie, say your prayers, an il
he dares to touch you will rive him
another DRESSING"
The next night the devil put it into
tie little boys mind that it was quite
unnecessary for him to create such o
disturbance in the ship, when it could
be easily avoided, if he would only say
his prayers quietly in his hammock, SO
that nobody would observeit. But the
moment that the friendly sailor saw
Jamie get into the hammock without
first kneeling down to pray, he hurried
to the spot. and dragging him out by
the neck, he said
Kneel down at on, sir Do Won
think l am going to tigh' ~ you, and
you not say your pro ers, you young
rascal %
During the whole voyage back to
London this profane sailor watched
over the boy as if he had been his
father, and every night saw that he
knelt down and said his prayers. Jamie
soon began to be Industrious, and during
his spare times studied his books. He
learned all about ropes and rigging,
and when he became old enough, taking
latitude and longitude,
Several years ago the largest steamer
ever built, called the Great Eastern, was
launched on the ocean, and carried the
famous cable across the Atlantic. A
very reliable, experienced captain was
chosen for the important undertaking,
and who should it be but little Jamie
When the Great Eastern returned to
England after this successful voyage,
Queen Victoria bestowed on him the
honor of knighthood, and the world now
knows him as Sir James Anderson.
