CHRISTIAN BOOK TABLE Thinking Aloud in Church. | Under head we will be pleased to give li to rial reviews of all all books ana tracts of inter* editorial ----- -------- est that may be sent to this office.] One of our churches has a some what eccentric parishioner, who often affords the congregation much amusement. He lias a habit of ex pressing his thoughts aloud w’hen very much in earnest, never mind where he may be. His entire unconsciousness of having thought aloud is irresistibly funny. Last Sunday a late comer at church—a young lady with voluminous skirts —sought to pass him to get a seat. As she did so she carried the gen tleman’s hat, which was on the floor, some distance. It happened during a pause in the service, when there came, slowly and distinctly, and with an earnestness worthy of the preacher, that unconscious ejac ulation : “ Now—where—in—the name—of—the—Lord—is—that— girl—taking—^my—hat ?” — From a Newport letter. S oo K ish C haracteristics , by Paxton Hood.—He must be a bold man who will undertake to portray the character istics of a Scotchman. He has gener ally been found too hard a case, one who could always hold his own against all comers, and finally turn the laugh upon his critics. If, however, the work is to be done at all, there is not a man in Great Britain, who is so well fitted for the task as Paxton Hood. No man knows them better. He was near enough to them to Know them intimate ly ; he was far enough away to be able to take in tlieir „grand proportions of character. His wit, humor, sarcasm, which abound in all his writings, are apparently couoentrated in this. Some of the anecdotes we have seen before, but Mr. Hood tAlls them in such a quaint way that we find a new interest in them. The old as well as the young will be amused and greatly edified.
