The Trouble OR Having Family
Prayers.
Joe Brown lives not far from Seda-
In. He has . wife and three children.
There IL also dog and cat, and, we
suppose, plenty Of rats. Joe is very
pious, and last Tuesday morning. as
usual, Joe called the family to prayers.
But they didn't haye prayer Tues
day morning. No. indeed Joe can't
pfay worth cent now. After sum-
noniug the family around him, and
looking at the clock that was ticking
20 Justly on the mantel, Joe found
ont that he must push things this
morning. for time won't even wait for
religion.
After getting the family seated
around him, Joe gave out the hymn.
After this he read two verses Of the
gospel according to st. John.
joss eldest boy during the mean
Tine had concluded to hAye . little fun.
The dog wanted drink, and he gave
him scalding water.
Just - Joe was in the midst Of .
fervent prayer the dog set up . howl.
His wife kicked ct the brute and over
turned the pan of water. Joe had his
boots a, and when the water came in
contact with his feet he yelled out:

jump and landed square on the cats
back. This slightly increased the
music, and not being used to serving

The old lady rushed to the rescue
Of Joe, but the water had become slip

Aat ON the floor and hit Joe square on
the ankles, and his head came in con-
tact with the bed-post, while his feet
knocked two teeth down the old Ia
dys throat. t.la
Tho old lady didn't knew but that
Joe had struck her on purpose, 20 che
just got mp, and after getting the two
teeth out Of her mouth started for her

giving one earthly yell started after
her. In the haste he made, and blind

and landed Aat on the top Of the dog
and Knocked one of the boys down.
Hearing the racket, the neighbors
rushed In. Joe was taken to the po-
lice court, but after hearing all the
facts in the case, his honor concluded
that Joe wasn't drunk. had him con.
veyed home on . stretcher. A Bazoo
man went ont to view the damage.
Joe was lying in bed awaiting repairs

boys was in bed with . very sore
