I turn it on. The pipes and faucet and every convenience are in good order; but I get no water. Can any of you tell me why Isdon't get any water? He ex pected the children to say that it was because he had not made connections with the main in the street. The boys were perplexed.

The sermon was commenced, and the occupant of the pulpit had got as far as "thirdly," when 'the door of the kirk opened quietly, and a young man walked on tiptoe to the pew ocoupied by Dr. Jones, and whispered a few words in his ear. There was a slight stir as the medico, reaching under the seat tor his hat, followed the. messenger out of the building ; and the minister improved(?) the occasion by solemnly remarking : *My dear brethren, let us spend a few minutes in bebalf of some poor person who is evidently in grest danger.

AER Some three or four months ago & young son of Mr. Lo ves, hotel-keeper at Sutherland's corners, became ters ribly frightened at an agly face worn by another boy. The fright was im- mediately followed by brain troubles. The boy is just around again, but to their sorrcw has been left completely . deaf.
