A MANNHEIM OF PRAISE.

"Yoa noticed, didn't you," said
the man who dropped in, chat
Rev. DR.. Talmage says Cleveland
has been converted and is travel
ing in the heavenly way"
Eyes, I noticed it."
"Well, I thought there ought-to
be g. nanthem of praise offered up
on such an occasion; so 1've writ
it,"
"Yes?"
Yes, and here it is. You can
publish it if you want to or you
can reject it into the waste basket.
Don't make no difference to me-"
HERE'S THE MANNHEIM:
One time preacher said to Grover:
"oh cast salvation's mantle over
Your cowerin' form and enter in
Where there's redemption from your SIM"
"My SIM" said Grover with a smile;
eff Pm sinner, what's Carlisle?"
The preacher talked of endless woe,
But all the same, it didn't go.
1t didn't go! 1t didn't go
Still Grover held in sin and woe,
And often muttered with smile,
.sIf Pm sinner what's Carlisle?"
Ana then that preacher said, said he:
''oh, turn, poor mortal, and be free;
'sWhile yet the lamp holds out to burn
The vilest sinner may return.
Their pearly harps the ransomed hold,
And all the streets are paved with gold"
"With gold !"said Grover win grin,
"If that's salvation, count me in''
He's counted in! He's counted in!
The streets of gold he's bound to win.
But still he queries with smile
''If Pm a christian, what's CarlisleH'
