Il BARREN SPOT.

A mother was assisting her little
boy the other evening in the mastery
of his geography lesson. and. coming
to the description of desert, which
formed part of the lesson to be mem
orized, she quoted the words of text
book TO the effect that it was "a bar
rem spot" The little fellow repeated
the descriptive phrase after her, but
his air of justification showed that
he hadn't the slightest idea of the
meaning conveyed by the group of
words, and the better to reach his
youthful understanding she endeavor-
ed to simplify the escription by de
filming it as "a place where nothing
would grow" The boys face lighted
with the light of awakened intelli-
gence, and The mother, proud and ex-
pectant, put the question, NOW,

"'Move, and you're dead man.

arms and said in n ringing voice:

THAT is so, said the Parson, whose
sermon had been SO suddenly inter.
rupted. The old man has cheated i'm

Jack gave orders to search the body
of the deal man. When d whole
pack of cards was found concealed
about his pers on, all accepted this as
certain evidence of fraud. Jack
roared OUT
This court decides that Slippery
Dick was caught cheating and 'The
Baby is guilty of justifiable homicide
and goes free. All in favor of the
motion say 'Ayen"
"A thunder of Ayes responded.
'All opposed say No" said Jack as
he cooked his revolver and glared
about the room. a moments death
like silence followed. Jack in a lower
tone said:
This court is unanimous and The
Baby is acquitted. The parsou will
now say PRAY er for Slippery Dick
and We'll take him out and plant
him.
The great bell rang out as Jack
shouted:
"All up, gents; hats off" Ever,
one stood and uncovered the head.

life, but never one like the parsons

pleaded for mercy for the mob of sin

hard and cruel hearts about him with
the fearless and steady hand of
master surgeon. You could hear the
quick gasp of suppressed breathing
as each one Of the pack of reprobates
felt the unsparing hand reveal his
own guilty secret.
The prayer for Jack, the ringlead-
er in sin, was like blast from fur
nrce. Jack covered his face with his
SLOUGH hat and trembled like leaf.
The petition for Slippery Dick was
like a picture of awful sin receiving
its awful penalty in accordance with
Divine law. 1t brought I. sob of ter

prayer reached The Baby the hard
