Pulpit Episodes
Sam" Jones, tho rovlvallst. was once
taking women to taBk for spending moro
tlmu In prinking than In praying. "If
thero'B n woman here," ho finally screamed,
who prays moro than alio prinks, lot her
tand up." Ono poor old faded specimen
f femininity, In tho Borrlcst, shabbiest of
lothcs, nroso. "You spend moro tlmo pray-
ng than prinking?" asked the preacher,
aklng her nil In. Tho poor old creature
said sho did prayed all tho time, prinked
ot nt nil. "You go Btralght home," ad
monished Jones, "and put a llttlo tlmo on
your prinking."
riiu Liverpool l'ost tells a story ot a
clergymnn who was recently called upon to
baptize nine children. From No. 1 to b
nothing went nmlss. Tho ninth, however,
proved to hu a lusty boy, who soon suc
ceeded In almost wriggling out ot his some
what Bcnnty clothes. Thu clergyman, grnsp-
ing thu Infant by tho nape ot tho neck and
by such garments aa still remained no-
cure, was proceeding with tho service, when
thu mother, overcome with admiration for
er child and scarcely realizing tho sol-
utility of thu occasion, remarked In n loud
volcu: "Hu's a nlco little lump, sir; Isn't
ho7"
A mvlviillHl niitni'il A. Wnccn has been
preaching In Uoanoko, Va., nnd ndvlslng the
farmers to burn their tobacco crop in oruer
to avoid burning themselves In thu next

young farmer, emptied eight bnrns which
wero llllcd with lino tobacco, piled it In one
Immoiiso heap, Invited Ills nclgtinors in nnu
then sot flro to tho wholo crop, It was
vnlued at $8,000. Tho other farmurs, how
uvcr, aro selling their tobacco, preferring
that Bomeono ulau should burn it nftcr they
got tho money for It.
A cortnln Unitarian minister of Greater
N?nw York Is determined that Ills young
diiiiRhter hhall not know tho dork sldo of
orthodox religion. Tho hiIsb went to the
country with her mother during tno paBi
summer and thoro found n playmate In tho
wmtlifiil daughter of a vlllaco teacher.
Ono day tho following conversation was
overhonrd:
"You'vo told a story," said tho village
girl ncciiHlngly. "Don't you know whore
folks go that tell stories?"
"No." replied tho Now York mis3.
'Whoro do thoy go?"
"Thoy go to hell."
"Whcra's hell 7"
lllnnkl You a minlstcr'l

"Wull, I don't coro," answered tho nc
cuscd, "I never was In n geogrnphy clnsa

tho llerco old man and tho trembling youth
