THE Parsons GLAss.-A clergy
man who was very particular about
his personal appearance went to preach
in a country parish in Connecticut.
Finding there was no glass in the yes
try, and fearing his hair might not be
quite as smooth as it should be, he
asked the clerk if he could get him a
glass. The man was gone some min
utes, but at length returned and pro-
duced parcel very mysteriously from
under his arm. To the astonishment
of the clergyman, he found when it
was opened that it contained a bottle
of whisky, with water and a tumbler.
"You mustn't let on about it, mis-
ter" said the clerk, "for l got it as a

pS On the old battle fields of the
Civil war, shells remaining in the
ground are exploded accidentally
sometimes. Last summer tree that
had been struck by lightning and
which was smoking, was climbed by a
Negro who was bent on finding the
source of the mysterious smoke. Just
as he got up near it, she'll, lodged in
the tree during the war, caught fire
and exploded, without hurting, but
nearly soaring him to death. He slid
down and exclaimed, "For de Lawd, l
