The Worth of His Money.

Not seldom in highland districts the
attendance at church during unpropi-
tious weather is but scanty. One min
lister, finding himself on a boisterous
Sunday confronted with but one soli-
tary auditor, who happened to be a
gruff, outspoken character, took him
into his confidence, with a view to
propitiate him. "Will I go on with the
sermon, John?" John answered gruff-
ly, "Of course" Getting into the pull
pit and leaning over it, he asked, "Will
l give you the Gaelic sermon or the
English one?" "Gie's bath. Ye're
weel paid for It." said John, more
gruffiy still.-Dundee Advertiser.

Grandfather's Portrait.

A villager, intensely conceited and
ignorant, but quite wealthy, was per
suaded to have his grandfather's pic
ture repainted.
The artist not having been decently
treated by the villager, drew the por-
trait almost in nude form. Rolling
it up, he told the man not to look at
it before the coming New Year. On
that day the villager ordered the pic
ture to be hung up that he might pay
it his New Year respects. AS 1t was
being unrolled he frantically waved
his hands and shouted: wait! Wait!
The old gentleman is not ready, for he
is not yet dressed. From the Chi

CONGRESSIONAL FORECAST

At the close of last week in con-
gress the naval appropriation bill was
under consideration in the house and
the army bill in the senate, and both
will be proceeded with at the earliest
opportunity by the two houses respec-
lively. The senate continued its
work on the army bill Monday, but
the house devoted Monday to legisla-
ton for the District of Columbia and
did not resume work on the appropria-
tons until today. When the army bill
was again taken up the first subject
of consideration was the amendment
authorizing army officers and the gov
eminent to accept reduced or free
transportation, and it is expected that
the debate on that point will continue.
With that matter disposed of, the bill
will be speedily passed. The general
debate in the house on the naval bill
gave place today to speeches under
the five minute rule, and it is not ex-
pected that the measure will consume
much more time. In the house the
.postoffice appropriation bill will be
the next to receive attention, while In
the senate the District of Columbia
bill will follow the army budget and
it in turn will be followed by the agri-
cultural appropriation bill. Senator
Lodge will make an effort in the SEN
ate on Tuesday to secure considera-
ton of the Philippine agricultural
bank bill.
Lincoln's birthday was observed
