An Awful Disappointment.

One Sunday morning a poor man
dressed in his Sunday best, having
.rudged all the way from Boston, en-
tered the church at Newburyport and
took a seat near the pulpit. Presently
the service began, and the preacher had
not been speaking long before the Wis
itor from Boston began to show signs
Of excitement. As the sermon proceeded
his body swayed backward and forward,
his eyes glittered strangely, and at
length he fell in fit on the floor. Two
deacons of the church carried him out
SIDE laid him down on the church
green, Tnfastened his collar and dashed
water upon him while he writhed and
rolled ON the earth.
At last the man recovered his senses
and was asked what allied him. "Oh,
such powerful preaching" said he. 81
had heard before of men going into fits
under Whitfield's preaching, but 1
never supposed it would double me up
So ~
But" said one of the deacons,
"that was not Mr.. Whitfield preaching,
but only a nearby minister substituting
for him this morning."
At this point the Boston man became
mad clear through.
What he said Have l walked
80 miles, spoiled my best suit of clothes
and had fits and never heard Mr.. Whit
field after all? Well, I'll be goldarned
if that isn't the worst sell ever hadp

Color asd Aroma Of Coffee,

There are two things which people
imagine are guides to the goodness of
coffee which are really of no conse-
quence whatever. They are the color of
the decoction and the aroma of the coffee
when ground or as it escapes from the
pot in drawing. The color is due almost
entirely TO the roasting. This is true
also of tea. The finest coffees aud teas
when properly roasted and prepared to
give ont their finest f1avors will color
the water but little. The real essences
which give the favor have practically
no color.
