um brella that w as snugly placed in
a corner, and was proceeding
to
open it, when the old lady, who for
th e first tim e observed his move

ing:
"No, no; that you never shall!
1 have had that um brella tw enly
th -ee years, and It has never beet,
wet yet; and l'nt sure it shan't he
wetted now."
P ainting the story with a moral,
Mr Spurgeon said that he reared
som e folk s religion is of the sam e
quality, nolle the worse for wear.
It is a respectable article, to he
looked at, but it must not he dam
pened in the show ers of daily life
It stands in a corner, to he used In
case of serious illn ess or death, but
it is not m eant for comniou occa

tw enty-three year old gingham was
gone at the seam s, uud If It had
been unfurled It would have looked

sure that th is is the case with the
hoarded-up religion which bus ans
