VARNJSH ON THE CHURCH
PEWS.

There was the queerest scene at
one of tie churches in Richmond
last Sunday. 1t seems that during
the vacation the seats had bgen
newly vanished, and somehow tie
varnish was not right, as it WAS ter
ribly sticky. You know that when
yon pull anything off Of sticky
varnish that it cracks. Well, the
audience had all got seated. when
tn minister got up to give out the
hymn. and as the basement of his
pantaloons let loose of the vurnish
OF the chair there was noise like
killing fly on the wall with a palm
leaf fan. The minister looked
around ut the chair to see if he was
MI present. and that no guilty mans
pants had escaped. and read the
hymn. The choir rose with sound
OF revelry. and after the tenor had
swallowed Il lozenge, and the base
had coughed up piece of a frog.
and the alto had hemmed and the
soprano had shook out her polonaise.
TO see if the varnish showed on the
South side, the audinence began to
rise.
One or two deacons got up first.
with sounds like picket firing in til,
distance on the eve of battle. and
then a few more got up, and
the rafting of the pnyielding var
nlsh sounded as though tire fight
was becoming more animated, and
tLen the whole audience got IN ITS
feet ut once witha sound of rafting
musketry. The choir sang Hold
the Fort" When the orchestra
had concluded the people sat down
singerly, the services were short.
ana all went home praying for the
man who painted the seats.
