the yoarid- raaa should be invited to ritcach on a certain fiandty eveainc sot of course a trial sermon the vicar was careful to explain that is a thin i abominate and woald always set my fce against hat jest to jet yon see my people try yoar viice and that sort of thine cribbcr being a prndaat yoongmanwis nite sutiiced with this way of patting it when the day arrived on which mr cnbber was to try

ta the occttiott he ncqaitted himself very credit ably he delivered a striking and pathetic address from the words the eooiishnoss of preaching tad the physical disability nader which he wis evidently laboring only served to heighten the effect of his al lusions to the earthen ves4f to which celestial tceaxcrcs were so often irtraited but in the evening obedient to his doctor6 orders tie good man stayed at home leav- ing the whole service to jfr cribbcr and sabmittipciinnelf patiently to such cod- dims measure as his wife thonght fit to enforce as the night drew on dr sparkle became ven much depressed despite ill his wifes e5orts to cheer him j i arabafe yoa woald have been pleased dear it yoa coald have heard the way the people spoke of you when comingcat of church this- morning the grundys hid some friends with them and they said that thpy never heard a better sermon generally the vicar was keen enough to listen to any little bit of tittletattle of a flattering character but oo the present cc- casicn he teemed distressed rather than pleased turning nneaily oa the pillow his wife ad made him go to bed early he merely taid in a languid voice and voa ray dear whit did yoa think ofitr i think it was the most beactifcl ter- tronyoa ever preached replied the lady entfacstically though all your sermons have been splendid of late some months ago yoa remeiaber yoa complained of feel ing exhausted and insisted that the foan- tain of your ideas was drying up but it seems to me that ever since year ideas have been brighter tnd mere original than formerly they have babbled and sparkled as though to match yoar nanse this was an old family joke and it al ways need to please him xow howeer it seemed to have lost its efficacy- the worthy man threw his arms itupatienty on thecoaaterpane and ciclaimed bitter i feel exhausted andntterly dried up touiiht anyhow im fit for nothing von have stadied too hard lethe dear your brain has been lover- wrought said jtrs sparkle affectionately we mast go for a nice long holiday whea the nw curate comes only last week dr brigg sid that if ever i man had earned a holiday yea had ah by the way i wonder how cribber is getting on interrupted the vicar glad apparently to change the topic of con- venation i ehoaid like to hive heard him myself yon are better where yoa are dear i aiacb better orged the good woaitn by my tioatment of the subject and they j woald thai read a meaning and a reference into the perhapa confused language of a young and inexperienced preacher which were not really inieniel lo bs csnveyedby him mr grundy who hid a profound ro- ipect for the vicar wu duly impressed by this exposition of the case bat recalling the withering criticiima to which the on- fortunate cribber bad been subjected by i mrs grnpdy aud her nendsatthesapper- table the previous night he ventured to make a further ft and xo doubt there it great force in what yoa say sir aod you are well skilled in the workings of the human mind as be comes au ahe minister of the kcw testa ment but there arc some things mrs grundy and those i have heard speak cant get over heads aud divisions and illustra tions all coming in pat poor dr sparkle was ia a terrible fix so fir as words went he had always been truthful and he was no nitatally a mean mac bat what was he to do now there was grundy waiting to be galled and it was inratnbeut en him lo say something he gave a little sigh and spoke in his soft est accents well you see mr grundy not having heard this wonderful sermon i cannot dii- cuss the mailer in detail nor would i wish to think anything ta the disparagement of a young man who has been very highly re commended to me several partial ioiu tons occar to me none of them reflecting unduly on ilr cribber possibly he may have looked into the sama commentary ir grundy gave a knowing nod possibly mr cribber may hare read some article of mine in one or other of the religious periodicals treating thii tabjeet i say possibly thoagh i do not at this moment recall btving written anything about it mr grundy give another yet more know icg nod and there is yet another hypothesis connected with the obscure topic of uncon scious cerebration and reminiscence tlell yoa candidly i have preached on that text before at the abbey once and else where perhapa m cribber may have heard me my thoughts may have passed into an impressionable mind they may have been reproduced without the slight est consciousness on his part that they were jpot strictly original there have been most remarkable initances of this phenomenon x i mrgrundy was evidently impressed i think he said i can unaerstand i how it happened now and the explanation yon have given is very interesting but perhaps under the circumitances yoa might find some more suitable gentleman for the curvy- i almost think you are right grcasy assented the vicar eagerly ilr cribber seems scarcely up to the mark for such a coagregatioa as ourr there were several other applicants who were most highly re commended mr riayfairfor instance i am sore he would be popular said the churchwarden well ithall give the matter my best consideration and you may rest assured it will be my with to do whatever is for the highest interests of the congregation dr sparkle spoke in hir most dnlce tone but as soon as mr grundy left the room he sat down and wrote as
