The Row was ono

The Rev was one of the most
oashful men in the profession and was
constantly getting into scrapes through
his nervous mistakes. At one time he
rose in his pulpit to give out the hymn,
"This world is all heeting show" and
after clearing his throat he struck high
pitch of voice and began solemnly:
"This world is all floating shoe"
Everybody smiled except the deacons,
and the minister was covered with con-
fusion as he began again:
"This world is all a shouting fiOw."
This only made matters worse and the
unhappy man cleared his throat with
tremendous force and began once again:
'This world is all floating she"
Then he slammed the hymn book down
and wiping his clanIIny brow said:
Brethren, for some reason / cannot
read that hymn as it should be read; we
will omit it and the choir will please sing

1T is stated that Baker Pasha, who has
been intrusted with the task of re-organiz-
ing the Egyptian army, will propose to
the Khedive to employ all English Off
GERS serving in the Gendarmerie. Likely
enough, as Baker Pasha is himself an
Englishman. He became notorious a
