The Installation

The day on which | was installed in
my present charge ! was requested to
address the Sunday school. | attempt
ed to make plain to the children the
idea of installation. In doing so | re-
lated this anecdote: congregation
has called a new minister. His in
stallation is announced for a certain
Sunday. Coming home from church a
boy who evidently has listened to the
announcement very attentively, asks
his father: Father, what do they do
when they install minister? Do they
put him in a stallY' NO." replies the
latter, they hitch him to a congre.
cation and make him pull"
A little girl had evidently not seen
the point in this, for when she got
home she told her mother-the mother
related this to me afterward7-that she
wanted to go to church that evening.
My installation was to take place in
the evening. "What for, my dear? You
never go to church in the evening"
"Well, but the minister said we should
come, and then | want to see it, too
"What do you want to seeY Don't
you know. mamma?' "No. What dc
you meanY why, they are going tc
hitch the minister to cart and make
him pull it around the church. -

srnudges.

A curious bit of adaptation to cir
cumstances may be seen in summer
among the cattle of the swamp lands
along the Mississippi. From July to
mid September blood sucking insects
mosquitoes, flies, gnats and so on-are
so bad there cattle are sometimes in
danger of their lives. So are people,
unless they make smudges-that is to
say, fires so thickly smothered that
they fill the air with clouds of smoke
and thus drive away the pests. The
cattle soon learn the use and value
of the smudges.

LAUGHTER I'M THE MORNING.

Dame Fortune hath soul Of wrath
For those who truckle to her;
She loves to fiout and put to rout
Weak hearts that, trembling, woo her;
But mild as milk and soft as silk
Is she, all others seorning
To that bold wight who braves her spite
With laughter in the morning.
The breakfast face of cheerful grace,
Full well this vixen knows it;
Against her will it wins her still,
'Tis hopeless to oppose it.
So yields the jade full sore dismayed
With her best gifts adorning
The dauntless foe who tempts her blow
With laughter in the morning.

A Scotch Custom.

In many parts of Scotland it used to
be the custom to place on mans
tombstone the symbols of his trade.
Thus a sugar cane would decorate the
grave of grocer; an ak and saw, with
hammer and nails, would be found on
that of carpenter, an awl and ham
mer on shoemaker's grave, and so on.
