Special Preparation IL Not at All Time
Essential.

Ehsenlfal.
The question OF special preparation
is very controverted one, owing TO the
belief already mentioned that any such
preparation spoils the sponianeity of
talk, and thatif you perceive that Il man
has prepared his conversation, or wishes
10 lead you from the topic in hand to
something else, YOU resent IT, and look
Upon him as an impostor or n bore.
But that only means that lac does not
know how TO make his preparation, or
else that there is something intcrest-
ing already under discussion, IN which
case we resent 'the drawing of d red
herring across the trail"
But let us suppose that man comes
in while people are waiting for the ar
such moment one who brings IN bit
OF strange news. who starts paradox,
" no suggests any topic OF interest. is
a real benefactor 20 the host and host
css, and surely will receive no censufe
from any reasonable person. And will
anyone tell me that the man who
thinks OF this conjuncture beforehand
will not acquit himself better than he
that leaves the matter to mere chance,
on rather the better intelligence of some
other guest2
In the case Of special preparation
there is one golden rule which will pre-
vent any mistakes. Such preparation
must only bc intended 10 fll up the un-
pleasant gap. TO help out the company
when no agreeable topic has been pro-
posed. II things are going well, il is
the duty of the prepared man 20 cast
his material 10 the wind and fall in with
the current Of the evening There are
many men 50 vain and selfish that they
will not make this sacrifice. and will
obtrude their ideas where they are not
wanted But here the fault lies. not
in the preparation, but III the moral
qualities of the man. lie ought to be
delighted that his aid is not required.
he ought 10 know that what he has
ready will serve AT some future occH-
sion; il he cannot rise TO these consid-
erations he is a vain and worthless per-
son and is not fiji to be taught this gem
tie and delicate art. p. Mnhafry.

frightened Out of Church.

Some years ago, writes Lady Cook, a
handsome, accomplished and we'll
dressed young lady-an intimate friend
of ours-casually passing the open
door of a rural bethel about mile or
two from Penzance, ventured to en-
ter. Her fashionable appearance in
such spot caused general sensa-
ton. The local preacher" halted in
the midst of his rustic eloqu ence, and
gazed for few moments at the lovely
vision. Then. thrusting Satan behind
him with one hand, his heart boiling
with holy wrath, he extended the
other, and pointing to the delicate veil
which flowed over her luxuriant tresses,
shouted in stentorian tones and with
an air of apostolic fevor: '"Take off
that hell raG!' If a mere veil could
have produced such rude outburst of
dissenting zeal, what would he have
said had she entered in cycling knick-
erbockers? Our young friend left the
chapel of this latter-day Boanerges
more rapidly than she entered it, and
with visible sympathy of the surprised
congregation-for the Cornish are re-
markable for their gentle and unob-
trusive politeness. Nevertheless, his
character as a severe and fearless de-
nouncer of pomps and vanities was
thoroughly established. Y. Press.
