Sunny PeOpgc,

Christianity wants nothing SO much
In the world as sunny people The old
are hungrier for love than bread, and
the oil Of joy is very cheap, and If you
can help the poor on with a garment
of praise 1t will be better for them than

Something Like a Search,

A Welshman who was in London
when extensive sewering operations
were in progress lost his watch. He re-
ported the matter to Scotland Yard, and
the officials sid they would leave no
stone unturned to find the missing time
keeper. Shortly aftcrward Taffy again
visited the metropolis and saw street
after street turned up. He was told that
in all SO miles of road were in the same
condition. He rushed down to Scotland
Yard and exclaimed to the wondering
inspector:
II didn't think was giving you all
that trouble. If you don't find the
watch by Sunday, I wouldn't break up
any more streets. "-Pearson's Weekly.
