the leading politicians were holding
an earnest conversation near the en-
trance Of the post Office. Perched upon
the steps a street urchin was drinking
in every word Of the discussion, when
the pastor of one Of the village
churches came out of the building.
Recognizing In the urchin one of his
Sunday school boys, he called him
aside and began: John, it is wrong,
very wrong. of you to try to pry into
the affairs Of others. Don't you know
that it is impolite TO listen to the
conversation of grown ups?"
Sure. | know IL is impolite," re-
piled Johnnie, but it is all right this
time, cause Deacon Smith said he'd
give me quarter if found out what
them two men were talking about"
