that he would try it ou some of tbs coe-

j six hard old nuts that take s
bath together about twice s

well along in years, who had steamed it
a good deal, and became rheumatic and
g. uty, and the whole party hod no more
relhaon than could be put in a canary

joking each other on being pretty near

chral voice that seemed to come from
the confines of the damned, filled the red
hot air and said, “ Prepart to meet th

other and turned pale. Then the voice
said, “Get down on your knees, every
man, and repent before it ip everlastingly
too late, for in snob a moment as ye
think not your goose will be cooked.’’

to pray for the salvation of the souls of
