VARNISH ON THE CHURCH PEWS
parL's gpp

There was the queeresl scene at one of
the churches last Sunday 1t seems that
during the vacation the seats had been
newly vanished, and some how the varnish
was not right, as it was terrible sticky
You know when you pull anything of Of
sticky vsrnish that it cracks
Well, the audience had all
got seated when the minister got up
to give out the hymn, and as the basement
ofhis trousers let loose of the varnish on his
chair there was noise like killing fly on
the wall with palm leaf fan. The minister
looked around at the chair to see if lie was
all present, and that no guilty mans
pants had escaped, and read the hymn.
The choir rose with q sound OF reverv,
and after the tenor had swallowed
lozenge and the bass hid coughed up a
piece Of the frog and the alto had hemmed
and the soprano had shook ont her polonaise
to see il the varnish showed on the south
side, the audience began to rise. One or
two deacons got up first with sounds like
picket firing in the distance on the eve of
battle, and then n few more got up, and the
rafting of the unyielding varnish sounded
as though the fight Was becoming more
animated, and then the whole audience got
on its feet at once with sound of rafting
musketry, The choir sang. "IIold the Fort"
When the orchestra Ind concluded the
people sat down gingerly, the services were
short and all went home praying for the
man that painted the seats
