In Montpelier, Vermont, thev
tell of a bachelor rector who U
was alone in his study one after- a
noon when his housekeeper o
brought him the card of one of ri
his parishioners, a spinster of | h
means. j si
When the lady was seated on c
the opposite side of the study c
table the rector looked at her,
expecting her to sav something f<
concerning parish work, in u
which she was active. To hts n
surprise an embarrassing silence
ensued, during which he vainly si
sought to find something to say. fi
"Doctor Blank," began the la ii
dy at last in faltering tones, "do p
vou think?can you imagine si
conditions under which a?a
woman is?justified in propos c
ing?" si
\Why, yes," said the minister. 44
after some deliberation. 1<
"Thou art the man!" said the I
lady, resolutely. b
Moreover, it appears thqt she a
was right, n

An old German in Milwaukee 1
takes pride, like many self made
men, in exhibiting a patronizing
condescension toward those
things he did not have time for
when he was making his wav
in life. Not long ago upon the
occasion of the graduatin of his
eldest son, he asked:
"Vel, Vilhelm, vot do you
know? Vot did dev teach you
up in school?"
4'Oh, Latin and Greek," answered
the youth, "and German
and algebra."
4 So, so," mused the old German.
"And vot's der algebra for
cabbage now?"
