A Proved Impossibility.

Senator Caffery is very proud of the
length and breadth of the Mississippi
river when it confines itself to its pic
ture frame, and Senator Aldrich is fond
of descanting on the "great common
wealth and sovereign state" of Rhode
Island. One day recently, during a
heavy downpour, the closeness of the
atmosphere in the Rhode Island sena-
tors committee room evolved some mar
velous tales about trout. Senator Gallery
spoke of superlative catch in which he
estimated his fish at - pounds Mr..
Aldrich went him one better by putting
a certain catch of his down at Al inches
long.
"Where did you catch him?" inquired
Senator Gallery obviously.

Sermons Dead and Forgotten.

The wife of departed pulpit orator
once addressed her husband as follows:
There's Watty Scott, that was at
school with you, has published books,
and got thousands of pounds for them.
Why don't you publish a volume of
your sermons and get thousands of
pounds for it?' For that good lady one
volume was just as good as another,
and there was no reason why "Waver-
ley" should interest human beings more
than a collection of discourses all of
which had set the congregation to sleep.
The good cleric understood things bet
ter than his admiring partner, but he
did not suggest the consideration which
the astute reader has thought of. Quite
another. He replied: "Wheesht, wum-
man. They're a in print already" He
added no more. Nor did she. Only let
me say, as with authority, that though
the sermons you have conveyed be very
good in themselves, they will sound
very dull when delivered by you.
Just yesterday very accomplished
man said to me, with much feeling: ST
have just been reading some of Chal-
mer's sermons. How could that lumber
ing stuff produce the superhuman inn
preston which it is perfectly certain it
Iid?'' One could but say that Chalmers
could not publish that which was the
first, second and third thing which did
the work at the moment of the awful
hush, passed away. Further, the taste
has changed. Much more direct SEN
fences are wanted now. Even Henry
MeIvill is quite out of date What Sir
Walter called "the big bowwow style"
in preaching is as Bob Acres maintain
ed certain other things are-it has chad
its day" For, as that philosopher well
remarked. you get tired of even the best
things. Magazine.

Decided by Mrs. Lincoln.

Governor Drake Of Iowa, in a recent
speech, told new story of a meeting
between Lincoln and A. II. Pickering
of Chicago. Mr.. Pickering, who is @
very tall man, was a resident of Iowa
at the time Of Lincoln's election and
was engaged in shipping cattle. He and
Mr.. Drake came to Chicagoon business,
and, hearing that Lincoln was in the
city, they sent up their cards and were
shown to the president elects room.
"When we got to Lincoln's room," said
Governor Drake in his speech, ''he
opened the door and, on seeing Picker
ing, asked, How tall are your Picker
ing said, ''Six feet four. Why cried
Lincoln, that's my height. Let's meas
ure. And then the president of the
United States and the cattle shipper
stood back to back, while the first lady
of the land, Mrs. Lincoln, who was q
little woman, after standing on tiptoes
and reaching to the tops of their heads,
decided that it was tie.

The Letter p.

The Hebrew name of the letter p is
Pc, mouth, and although the form in
which we recognize it bears no sort of
resemblance to the contour of the hui
man lips, the shape of the Hebrew char
acter in the most ancient manuscripts
and inscriptions was such as to call up
in an instant the bow shaped outline of
the upper and the curve of the under
lip.

Maurice Barrymore was once in Lon

that he was to play the leading role.
About a week after it was supposed to

him to call
