A certain pastor, according to the
Minneapolis Journal, had in his con-
gregation two men that troubled him
by sleeping in church. At last he said
to one of them: .,
Brother Parker, did you ever notice
that Brother Benjamin had fallen into
the habit of sleeping during service n
Brother Parker had not noticed it,
but lie was panied at the information,
"Well, might 1 ask you to sit beside
him next Sabbath and nudge him in
case he falls asleep?
Brother Parker would most certainly
do so.
The clerical brother then seeks his
esteemed co-worker, Brother 'Benja-
min. g.,
Brother Benjamin, have you noted
Brother Parker's habit of sleeping dur
ing the sermon?"
Brother Benjamin had noticed it and
had been panied,
"Well, would you do me the favor
Of sitting beside Brother Parker next
Sunday and nudging him in the case Of
drowsiness?"
Most certainly Brother Benjamin
would do so. So:
The spectacle of the two good men
keeping tab ON each other in the sane
tuary next Sabbath nearly upset the
dignity of our clerical friend during his

year began with the month of, aAbib

and but two seasons were reckoned-
summer and winter. The months were
lunar, twelve in number, each of thir-
ty days. This was the case with the
average year, but occasionally thir-
teenth was necessarily intercalated.
This thirteenth month was called
"Veadar." Several Of the ancient ma

slams and Phoenicians in particular
began their year at the time Of the
autumnal equinox. about Sept. %.

hearth of the cabin in which he was
born, but which he is about to quit
forever, and vets them with his tears,
but when, accompanied by his Turkish
captors, he leaves the village the lam

happened, the latter go about their
ordinary occupations. Never again is
the conscript's name mentioned. and

OLD TIME NEW YORK.
The City as Pictured by Jedidiah
Morse In. 1909.

The City as Pictured by Jedidiah
Morse In 1909.
1.-THE city of New York is inhabited
! principally by merchants, physicians,
lawyers, mechanics, shopkeepers and
tradesmen, composed of almost all ma
lions and religions. They are generally
respectable in their several professions
and sustain the reputation of honest,
punctual, fair dealers"
In such wise the affairs of New York
city were summed up by Jedidiah
Morse, D. D., in 1902. The quotations
are from Mr.. Morse's Geography
Made Easy" published in December,
1902, few copies of which remark
able book have come down in time vel
lowed pages to the third and fourth
generations of them that studied the
fresh issues.
Mr.. Morse found still discernible
among the inhabitants of his New
York 1.-The neatness, parsimony and in
dustry'' of the early Dutch settlers,
and he had courage to believe that
these qualities will probably continue
visible for many years to come"
When geography was being made
easy, in 1902, New York was the CAPT
tai of the state and Albany and Hud-
son were the only other incorporated
cities. -.--
1.-THE principal part of he city (New
York;" wrote Mr.. Morse. Lies Oh the
east side of the island, although the
buildings extend from one river to the
other. The length of the city on East
river is about two miles, but falls
much short of that distance on the
banks Of the Hudson. The houses are
generally built of brick and the roofs
tiled" s5
The geography notes that New York
"is esteemed the most eligible situation
for commerce in the United States
Moreover, lin point of sociability and
hospitality New York is hardly exceed
ed by any town in the United States.
ION a general view Of this city as de-
scribed thirty years ago. the geogra-
ply goes on. ''and in it's present state
the comparison is flattering to the pres
ent age, particularly the improvements
in taste, elegance of manners and that
easy, unaffected civility and politeness
WHICH 1OfLu Tie napplneSS OF SOCIAL Ill
tercourse." --..
There were sixteen states in the I'm
ion when Mr.. Morse wrote. He had
kind words for these and for the
known countries of the world at large.
Before concluding his work with
chronological table extending from the
creation to his own date he INDUCED in
a gentle prophecy thus as to the
growth of the republic. III

The phrase "a kettle of fish," mean-
ing an awkward ENHANCEMENT, most
probably has no connection with our
word kettle, a vessel in which water
is boiled. It has been with much rea-
son derived from the word ''kiddle,"
French "quidel," a stake fence set in
a stream for catching fish. Inspector
