An Oethodos CoNGßEeuTiow.—'How is your church, getting on?' asked a friend of a rigorous- Scotchman, ■who had separated in turn from the Kirk, the Free Church, the United Presbyterian, and several lesser bodies. 'Pretty weel. There's nobody be- • longs to it now but my brother and myself and I'm nae sure of Sandy's soundness.' A captain in the navy, on meeting a friend as he landed, boasted that he had left his whole ship's company the happiest fellows in the world. ' How so ?' asked his friend, ' Why I have just flogged seventeen, and they are happy it is over; and all the test are happy that they, have egcaped.'
