Disappointed.


In yesterday With the Fathers" DR..
William Wherefore Newton gives an
entertaining anecdote concerning one
of the fathers" and an observant
small girl.
When preaching the bishop had a
peculiar habit OF breathing in air like
an organ bellows, and sometimes the
whistling of his air pipes could be
heard by occupants Of the pews near
the pulpit. A little girl in Old Trinity
church, becoming restless during the
preaching, asked her mother to let her
go home. The mother refused, be-
cause she supposed that the bishop
was approaching the end Of his dis
course. After the third refusal from
her mother, who whispered that the
bishop would not like to see a little
girl so out Of church while he was
preaching and that he was almost
done now, the child answered In a
high falsetto:
NO. mother. he is not going to stop.
l thought SO now for three times. but
he has gone and blowed himself up
tgatn."

Attainment.


We sigh for things We scarce hope to
gain
And which, If all our own. would give no
peace.
We vainly toll and struggle to release
To knowledge natures secrets. We COM
plain
That tits not given US to break some
chain,
To scale some peak. to win some golden
fleece,
To do some mighty deed whose light shall
cease
wane.
IT'S thus we empty all the springs OF life
To lose the blessing at our very hand.
For faith and love. with glory as Of sun.
Hume the path of peace through every
strife.
No work is futile that is nobly planned.
No deed is little If but greatly done.
Edward Robson Taylor.

A Comical Comparison.

You know how it is when a man
grows fat and rolls of fat at the back
of his neck are sort of piled one above
the other until stopped by the base OF
his skull. Well, a man with the rear
of his neck disposed that way was sit
ting at the theater one evening in a
seat just in front Of one who isn't rev.
erent.
The latter contemplated the exuber.
ant layers of flesh surrounding the fat
mans collar. Then. pointing to them.
he remarked. soto voce, to the COM
panion beside him:
Look at the plate of buckwheat
cakes"'-New York Times.

TWO CIDER TESTS.
The First One Was Rather More Con.
vineino Than the Second.

vineing Than the second.
IN all glorious New Jersey it is gen
orally admitted there is no cider to
equal that of Farmer Marshall. But
he Is notable for other things besides.
1t is said that he would very much
rather receive than give-in short, that
he is a stingy old rascal.
Young Peterson had heard of this.
but he was a young man who had con-
siderable faith in his own powers Of
passing on the gentle hint, and to some
sportive companions he had boosted
that he would get a drink of cider out
of the old man without actually ask
ing for it. AS such thing had never
been known to happen In living mem
DRY, there were plenty Of takers, and
the next day Peterson drove over.
Morning, father" said he. Fine
orchard you have here"
Aye" said the farmer.
-"They tell me, too. that you have a
very fine press"
Aye. IT'S the best in all Jersey"
"Pretty good cider you get, l sup
pose, eh? But 1 dare say I've tasted
better"
Not in your born days. Tom"-this
to his son-"get an draw a mug O.
cider"
The luscious beverage was brought
and with a smile Of triumph young
Peterson held forth his hand to take
1t.
But the farmers hand got there
first. He drained the mug and then
handed it to the visitor.
'There"' be remarked IF you
think you've ever met the like Of that

Tho Canvas Was Good.

When Whistler was living in the
Latin quarter in Paris in his youth a
friend took him to task one day for his
tdleness.
"Why don't you pitch in and paint
something's said the friend. Pretty
soon your money will be all gone, and
those three rolls Of canvas will still be
standing empty there behind the door,
Just as they've been standing for the
last six weeks!'
Whistler. as he lay on the bed smok-
ing his pipe. answered lazily:
"But, You see. as long as there's
nothing on the canvas can sell it"
