The itinerant lecturer-preacher was a staunch Prohibitionist and al- ways prefaced his sermon by a story (either true or mythical), showing the curse of drink. The congrega- tion he was addressing jistened spell- bound, as he told of a heavy drinker wheymet with a very painful death. This man was so rum soaked, that, in attempting to blow out a lighted candle, his alcoholic breath was ignit- ed and his head exploded! There was complete silence as the preacher finished. One sinner, in the front row, suddenly paled, beads of perspiration breaking out upon his brow, "Ah!" the preacher "You have taken this lesson to heart! Would it not be safer to give up drink?" "Maybe it would," the man huskily replied; "but I know darn well that ¥| I'm goin' to stop blowing out candles, after this." «=0, L. K. No Use Living. Little Jean had been naughty.

"Why, Jean, you can't have two, but perhaps you might have one."

Our Sales Week having prov- ed very successful, we now offer a renewed stock of fresh humor, presented with the same values and service as before, We did not know, however, that our daily little talks were so eagerly sought for, Therefore, to-day, let us men- tion that one reader sternly ask- ed: "How and why is it you ac- cept a contribution from John Philip Sousa and not from me?" The fact that Mr. Sousa and others of note like to contribute to The Fun Shop should act as spur to all our readers. If they find the time to-send in humor, surely you, with better oppor- tunities for hearing goed old natural fun, should make up your mind never to quit contri- buting.

The dis- trict governor, Clarence Williams, will pay a visit to the ciub at a luncheon to be held at noon, in the British-a american hotel, and in the evening the celebrated Welsh choir will give a programme in Grant Hall under the auspices of the cub. The luncheon will he held at the usual time (12.30) and Governor Williams wil: have a stirring message for the members. This is the first visit of the newly appointed 6 governor, and it is hoped to have a hundred per cent. attendance, 'The Rotarians are also holding a big motor parade to-night (Monday) # | wonderful glee club and worthy of | home at Syracuse, N.Y., in the near | MF.

Cosgrove will present the rempwned Rhondda Welsh Male glee singers and mem- bers of the victorious Rhondda Welsh choir at Grant hall on Tuesday even- ing, September 9th. The choir has been meeting with most enthusiastic receptions during its tour of Canada and the United States, and King- ston, through the efforts put forth by the Kingston Rotary Club, has been fortunate in securing the choir for one performance on the date mentioned. It will, without doubt, provide one of the best musical treats of the season, In addition to the singers, Pro- fessor Emlyn Jones, an associate of the Royal College of Music and the accompanist of the choir is one of the most talented pianists amd or- ganists in the British Isles, and his rare musical knowledge and skill at the piano is of invaluable assistance to the artists. Musica critics state that for solo work and ensemble, the choir is by far the best ever heard, and they cannot speak too highly of the enter- tainments they have given. It is a the support of every organization and the people who have the opportunity and do not avail themselves of it, will be missing something worth while. The voices are wonderful. The memhers are finished singers in every sense of the word. The clear- ness of their tones and sweetness of their tones is wonderful. Every critic states that the chorus work is beautiful.
