our budget of clerical anecdotes.
"a parson,' writes good George
Herbert, sis the deputy of Christ for
reducing of man to the obedience or

the purity of his mind breaking out
and dilating itself, even to his body,
clothes, and habitation."

He Failed to Work Russell.

night at 7:45 o'clock, when he was
surrounded by four or five newsboys,
each one eager to sell him a paper.
The boys knew well apparently, for
| three or four times he was addressed
as Mr.. Sage" and Russell Sage" by
the twisting, bustling and noisy little
fellows. Mr.. Sage asked for certain
edition of certain paper, and the
smallest boy in the bunch thrust upon
him what was thought at the time to
be the desired paper. Nv. Sage paid
him and slowly walked on toward
home. He reached the corner of Mad

and then grimly and slowly walked
back to where the "'newsies" were talk

the lad he had patronized, he said:,
Here, boy! This isn't the paper /

Crestfallen the lad took back the pa
per- and Mr.. Sage held out his hand,
saying: Come, sir! l want my
money back"
The grimy little hand went down in
to the trousers pocket and brought
back a cent, which finally found lodg-
ment in Mr.. Sage's palm. Mr.. Sage
somewhat wearily hunted up another
urchin with the right edition of the
right paper, and then retraced his
steps homeward.
What did you try to cheat Mr.. Sage
for?" asked the repoi ter.
