I heard o f a clergyman who was preaching to a Chinese congregation In the vernacular. “ Come to Clod. oh. my friends; come to God!” he cried (or thought he did) and was considerably surprised to find some o f the congrega tion with broad grins ou their faces, while others were frow ning blackly. Great was the good man’s consterna tion when he found he had been say ing. “ Call the pigs, oh, my frieuds; call the pigs!” His mistake. 1 believe, was due entirely to putting the accent on the wrong syllable, which altered the whole sense o f tlie words.
