An aged Sootetatnan, tinny yon,rs
ago, wai o11 his way to a meeting' of
the poodle of God, held io a teat, or

old pilniul Sal s Moor and partly deaf,

fell In with aeothee tilirlstlttn brother a .
younger tll:tn boated Let tile 13AM%) er.
i•kLotl, .tail they trtLy.)ile 011 t°gethtir.
When they had nearly remelted the
1)lttuo of 111J+:aiit1 it tale prc)p0.3ed that
they elt,ut•1 tura a dila baltitl1 the
hedge, laical h.tee a Itttla leaver before
they eutoro.t Lilo mooting, They did
so, Sala Lilo old mau, who had loatmetl ,
in evel'ything to lot his requosts be
miule koewu unto (i-ot1, presented his
i`aae i.1 lang:uaga like tho fullo viae:--
"Lartl, ye ken wed 000ngh that I'ni'
ileal, and 1, wane a seat ma the 3t'3L
bench if Yu can let rico have it, so that
I clan hear Thy lord. And ye see
that my toes are stickiug , through my
shoed, aud I don't think it is mach to
your credit to have your children's toes
sticking through their shoes, and there-
fore I want Ye to got me a pair of now
nates. Aud Ye keu I have utae biller,
and I want to stay there during the
meeting, •road therefore 1 waut You to
get me a plaoe to stay.
When tho old mau had finished his
quaint petition, alld they had started.
ou, his yolluger brother gently suggest-
ed to hint tli•tt he drought his prayer
was rattler free in its forms of expres-
sion, and hardly Las rovereutial as seem-
ed proper to flim in approaching the
Supreme Being, But the old man did
not accept the imputation of irrever-
ence.
"He's nay Rather,' said he, 'and I'm
well acquainted with Him, and IIe's
well acquainted with ale, and I take
great libortiea with Him,' So they
went on to the meeting together. The
old man stood for a while iu the rear
of the congregation, making an ear
trumpet with Ins hand to catch • words,
until some Dire near the pulpit noticed
Lim, and beckoning Bien forward gave
him a good seat upon the front bench.
• During the prayer the old Mari knelt
down, and after he rose, a lady who
bad noticed his shoes, said to hili,
',Are those the best shoes, you have?'
"Yes,' said he, that I expect my
father will get me a new pair very
500E;
'Dome with me after the meeting,'
said the lady, 'and I „will give you a
new pair.'
The cervica closed, and be went with
her to her house
'�'Sball you stay daring the meeting ?
said the, good woman as they went
along.
'I would, bat I'm a stranger in the
place, and have nae siller.'
'Well,' said elle, 'you will be perfect-
ly welcome to lnalco your home ,at our
house during the rusebiug,'
The old mare thanked the Lord that.
Ile had given hila all the tyre r things
be bad asked fort and while tris young.
er brother's reverence for the Lord
was right and proper, it is possible that
he might have learned that there is a
revereuce that reaches higher Chau the
forms and cooveutionalities of human
taste, and which leads the believer to
come boldly to the throne of grace to
find all needed help io every trying
hour;
BUSINESS ON THE BRA.IN.
The Virginia (Nev.) Chronicle is re-
sponisible for this story ;
One night last week the wife of
Justice 4loses was aroused from a
sound sleep by a stern voice
"Are you ready for .trial, I say?"
"Hush ! Don't make a noise or else
you'll wake the baby" she replied) en-
deavoring to soothe him.
"Don't talk back to this court," be
vociferated. "If you've got any wit-
nesses bring 'eta on, but let the lawyer
clo the taking."
"Why, Tom, how you take on! What
is the matter ?"
"I send you up for, sixty days --that's
What's the matter. here, finders,

that petty larceny case, Bring up the
prisoner."
And, jumping out of bell, he started
for the next room to sulntllou to juryi
but foil ova a rocking char, barlsiul
his shine, woke up, aild asked. his wife
what au- the dealt was the r'lla.tter, FLtl�r-
