Prayers.
From the Crystal Springs Meteor:
One OF the most unique trials in the
annals Of our local courts was that Of
a colOred brother. tried before Jus
tice Stay, charged with carrying con-
cealed weapons. The discovery of his
guilt was made under very peculiar
circumstances. He was at the time en-
gagged in prayer with the assembled
congregation, and during the heat and
ferVor of his invocation the weapon fell
from his pocket to the floor, to the ut
ter establishment OF the pious brethren
and sisters who knelt with him in
prayer. Indignation ran high, and
arrest followed the incident, and It is
believed by the congregation that the
Lord gave the offender away.

Merely Nominal.

The Budget ;,auntcrer friend, lie
doctcr, has retired from practice. \
few years ago he inherited large for
tune, and since then his time has been
so occupied managing his estates that
is impossible for him to continue his
professional work. Not only has he
taken in his shingle, but he also dis
courages the practice Of calling him
doctor so that in his neighborhood
the title has been generally dropped.
However, every few days the Irish
maid -all-work, when she answers
the doorbell, has to elplain that though
the proprietor of the establishment is
duly graduated physician, he is not
at present practicing his profession,
and does not wish to respond to calls
for his medical skill.
1t happened that one day there ap'
peared at the door a caller of very
difcrant kind. He was the agent Of
some religious society, anxious rather
to bleed others than to be blcd them
selves. So, naturally, he was eager
to post himself as to the church rela-
tions of his proposed subject in order
to make the appeal more efectual.
His first question began in the usua
way:
" Is-er-NIr. Hammersleigh at
home ?"
"Sure an he is, sorr"
"Can you tell me whether or not he
is Christian p
To Bridget this was something O.
a poser, but she rose supremely to th'
occasion with her accustomed answer

he's not practicing it lately.
