Mason many years ago was pastor of the Scotch i'reribyterian church of New York, and upon one occasion went to Washington to look after some matters in which he was interested. It being known that le: was to remain over Sunday arrange ments were made to have him preach. CongreHH was in session and among Us members was a Houthern senator u.ore noted for his brilliancy than lii piety. This senator had a good, pious, psalm singing friend in the city. T un friend, knowing of the eloquence oi Doctor Mubon, and thinking It woula be a pleasure to his senatorial friend urged him to go and hear the sermon He did so. The next morning tin: senator was met by his psalm sing ing friend, who said to him: "Well, did you hear Dostor Mason preach?' "Oh, yes." "Well, how did you like him?" "Very much very eloquent dis course. But, by the way, what kind of hymns do you folks use around here?" "Hymns! House's meter of David's Psalms." "House's meter ot David's I'salms.

One day Balzac met at his neighbor's the latter's niece, and felt bound to excuse himself on the na ture of his attire.
