No Private PRAYER,

Deacon Jones decided to speak his
mind to the minister who was temper
arlly filing the pulpit.
Il didn't like your prayer very much
this morning said he.
"No?" answered the minister, And
what was the matter with it?"
Well, in the hrst place, it was too
long, and aside from this, it contained
two or three expressions which |
thought were scarcely warranted
Il am sorry. deacon" the good man
responded. but it might be well to bear
in mind that the prayer wasn't ad-
dressed to you --Argonaut.
