at this gate, just inside, did not recognize
his stately visitor and sized him up for a

More Fun in Meetings.

The license which compositors take with
authors manuscripts often produces As
founding results. In the current number
of HIrper's there is a sentence in Mr..
Warmers story entitled, "A Little Journey
in the World" upon which the unaccount-
able compositor has displayed his genius.
In referring to Margaret's return home to
her aunt, the text says What a sweet
welcome it is, that of kiss" Now, the
author never wrote kiss" Kiss" must
have been the embodiment of the harmon
ious sentiment of compositor and proof
reader. Mr., Warner wrote, What a
sweet welcome it is, that of kim"
When Mr.. Warner saw how his copy"
had been edited by the compositor, he
must have felt somewhat as a clergyman,
now of Waterbury, but formerly of Chica-
go, felt when he saw a report of one of his
sermons In a Chicago paper one morning.
He had been preaching on the lack of life
and enthusiasm in the church meetings,
and he expressed the idea that what we
want Is more fire in our meetings" This
laudable sentiment he reiterated several
times in his discourse. What was his hOr-
ror then, to have 1t published to the world
that he had declared and reiterated that
what I'VE want is more ritn in our meet
ings"

Colonial days Here Washington had his
headquarters, and a building Is pointed

still stand to testify to the antiquity Of the
town The industries are few as 1t Is
mostly the home of the wealthy and mer-
chants who do business in Boston The
sanitary regulations are perfect and the
town is very healthy. The principal fruit
grown here is pears pears to the right

strange shrubs aud bushes on every hand.

An 0ld Vessel in Service.
THE SCHOONER PoILY, BUIl,T AT AMEsBuRY
EIGHTY-FIyE YEARS AGO.


The schooner Polly Is probably the old
est vessel in active service that flies the
American flag. Built in Amesbury in lsui
she is So years old. She was rebuilt in
1914, but still such was the good condition
of much of her timbers and wood that a
large part was put back and her model is
the same to-day as when first launched.
During the war of 1912, rigged as topsail
schooner, carrying four small guns and
one long 32, she did good service as a
privateer. capturing several prizes which
were taken into Salem. She was captured
by the English man-of-war Newcastle, a
prize crew put on board with some of the
original crew and started for Halifax, n. s.
The Americans on board recaptured her
and put into Portland, Me-, where the Brit
ish prize crew were imprisoned till the close
of the war She has been employed in the
fishing business, but of late years in the
lumber coasting trade. During her long
life she has never been wrecked, but has
several times been run into, and ia every
case the fault has been with the other party
her sailing qualities are excellent.

An amusing incident occurred in one
of our down-east churches a few months
ago. The clergyman gave out the hymn,


From every cumbering care,
And spend the hour Of setting day
In humble, grateful prayer
The regular chorister being absent, the
duty devolyed upon good old Deacon NJ. g,
who commenced, II love to steal" and
then broke down. Raising his voice q
little higher. he then sung. Il love to
steal" As before, he concluded he had
got the wrong pitch; and deploring that
he had not his "pitch-tuner, he determin-
ed to succeed If lie died in the attempt. By
this time, all the old ladies were tittering
behind their fans, while the faces of the
young ones" were all in broad grin. At
length, after desperate cough, he made a
final demonstration, and roafed out. II
love to steal" This effort was too much.
Every one but the eccentric parson was
laughing He arose, and with the utmost
coolness said Seeing our brothers pro
pensities. let Us pray" 1t is needless to
say that but few of the congregation heard
the prayer-A Parsons Notebook.
