about India at the church he did not
seem over-enthusiastic.
Il oughtn't TO go anywhere to

to be doctoring my sick horse"
Well. you're not doing it, and
you're not likely to do it. Get ready
and CO."
Uncle Billy meekly obeyed. He sa,
patiently through the lecture, which
was both interesting and profitable
At the close of his discourse the re-
turned missionary said:
Il will wait a few minutes now for
tho purpose of answering any ques.
tons that interested persons in the
audience may wish TO ask"

The march of Braddock through the
