that a sermon that is read lacks life

"A sermon-reading clergyman a
friend of mine, called one day on a
humble parishioner. This parishioner
was a cobbler He sat mending a
pair of shoes and reading his Bible
at tie same time.
"'V hat are you doing, Giles?' said
my friend, with a benevolent smile.

great and this character every man must
have If he is to win great name and low

other reporter was slightly deaf, and
knew that IL he sat in the back part
Of the temple he could not hear the

So he started down the long center
aisle; but the pews were well filled
that night, and the only vacant seat
he could see was in the front pew,

receptions Of wild birds.

Falcons-,-hawks, the largest species
can compress their features and look
very slim if they think it necessary to
do so. AS to the owls, they can hump
up into any position they think most
suitable. 1t is useless to look for these
self preserving traits in any of the fam
lily kept in geological collections, for
the birds are so accustomed to see
large numbers of people passing and
repassing or standing in front Of them
that they treat the whole matter with
perfect Indifference. They know that
at a certain time their food will be
brought to them and that they are 9th
erwise perfectly safe. Then the rap
torres in a wild state have bloom on
their plumage like the bloom on a
bunch of grapes, which is not often
seen when in captivity.
