Chambers' Journal The Rev. Dr. Maoleod, father of Dr. Norman Macleod, passing through the crowd gathered before the doors of a new chnrch he waa about to open, was stopped by an el dery man, "Doctor, if you please, I wish lo speak lo you." Asked if he could not wait until alter worship, he replied that it was a matter npnn his conscience, "Oh, since it is a matter ol conscience, Duncan," said the good uatnred minister, "I will h r what it is." "Well Doctor." said Duncan, "the matter is this. To see the clock yonder on the new church. Now, there is) really no dock there, only the face ot one; there is no truth there, only onco in twelve hours; and in my mind that , is wrong, very wrong, and quite against the con science that there should be lie on ihetaeoof the house ot the Lord." The Doctor promised to consider the matter. "But," said he, "I'm glad to see yc looking so well, man. Ye're not yonug. I remember you for vears; butvou have a tine head, of hair still." "Eh, Doctor," oxolairaed thu unsuspecting Duncan," now ye're joking; it's long since I had my hair." Dr. Macleod looked shocked, and an swered in a tone of reproach : "Oh, Duncan! arc yoii, going into the house of the Lord with a lie on vour head?" He heard no more of the lie on the face of the church. lllgh-rrlcetf Hornet.
