THE FRECKLED-FACED GIRL

The freckled-faced little girl was sent'. to Sabbath school last Sunday to counteract the effect of her remarks to the parson, and to show that the family wore not quite so wicked as sho mado it appear. The teacher told the class about Jonah, and offered to answer any questions tho children wanted to auk about the surprising adventures of the man who was thrown overboard for luck and swallowed for a sprat. Tho little girl stopped making faces it the boy with large ears in tho next class, and wanted to know if the whale was in the common council. The lady smiled at the question, and taking prido in her peculiar knack in drawing out children and analysing tho operations of their inmature minds she inquired tho reason of the question. " I didn't know" said the freckledfaced girl. « Your husband is in the - common council'n pa says he's got & naptite like the whale that eat up Mr Jones, Pa say's he's seen a bill for a lunch over at Parker's, and it said your husband ato 20dol worth at ono sitting. He said it was surprising what appetites some whales 'n most politishuns did have." The teacher told tho freckle-faced girl to stop talking and learri two verses. and the little heathon hid"'her face behind her book and whispered to the to the next little girl, whoso father is superintend.™*, "Say, don't your pa talk through his nose funny ? My pa says that if your pa would stay at home from prayer-meeting to mix a little more sugar with the sand he sells for fourteen cents a pound, perhaps ho might not need a fire-proof conffin when he dies." " It's high time your mother sent you to Sabbath school," said the teacher severely. " The influences around you at home are perfectly awful for a child of your age and naturally wicked disposition, Whero do you supposo you will go to if you learn to talk such scandal about your neighbors " I dunno. Over to Mrs Sliderback's I guess. Ma says that's where you'n Miss Magruder go to talk about tho neighbors, 'n I s'pose I can go when I got big nuff. I'd rather go to dancing school, though, 'n rna says I can go when pa gets tho money Deacon Sliderback cheated him out of that time they swapped horses." Then she devoted herself to making faces at the boy with largo ears and giggling at the way the teacher twisted her mouth when trying to sing a hymn; •
