Scrapiny Trees

Bishop CLARK, of Rhode Island, and
the Rev, DR.. Stephen III. Tying, were
both natives of Newburyport, and
We're lifelong friends, Tho Bishop
tells pleasant story Of how he once
compelled tho doctor to mako speech
and save the meeting"
There was great gathering in tho
Academy of Music in New York for
tho benefit of the children OF supdry
city societies. The children them
selves were present in crowds. Ono
speaker after another addressed them,
aud Bishop Clark, who was to follow,
became SO bored with ''the weary
speeches" that he felt himself incapa-
bio OF saying anything that ought to
be said. The meeting was failure,
he said to himself, unless DIR. Tying
could DO induced to come to the res
cue. ~
He whispered his idoa to the Chair
man, who replied that he had already
begged the doctor to speak, but with
out success.
"Woll," said Bishop Clark, "ho
must speak. 1 will see if can't draw
him out"
When tho Bishops turn came he
began something like this:
'In the town whero L was born
there was remarkable little boy who
always wanted to DO doing something.
and whom vacation camo he was miscr.
ablo because ho had to DO idle. So
ono morning ho won't to his aunt and
said. Aunt 'Becca, dou't know what
to do with myself and she replied,
Stephen, take case knife and go out
and scrapo one of the old apple trees
in tho orchard.
"Well, not to mako tho story too
long, before he got through and he
was week about it-ho had scraped
all the trees i'll tho garden, and ontire-
ly worn out the case-knife. This little
boy grew up to be man, and kept on
scraping things all tho time, trying to
make them look brighter and bettor,
and he is still alive. aud no lives in
this city, not far from this place, and
no is in this house tonight, and he is
on this platform, and his name is DIR.
Tying, and am suro ho will mot
let you 60 homo tonight without
saying something to you"
OF course this brought DIR. Tying
to his feet. Ho began by squaring nc
counts with tho Bishop, with some
stories of what tho Bishop used to do
when ho was II ''tadpolo minister.
Then, rs tho narrator says, ho won't
