Taken at His Word.

A Maine grocer who had just “ experienced religion” acknowledged in the meeting that he had been a hard sinner, cheating customers by adulterating his goods, etc., but, being converted, would repay any one he had wronged, Late

that night he was awakened by a ring at his door-bell. Looking out he saw a man. “ Who are you and what do you want?” he asked. “I’m Bill Jones. You said to-night you would repay those you had cheated. Give me that SIOO you’ve owed me so long.” “Can’t you wait till morning?” “No ; I ain’t going to wait till then and stand in line all day.” He was paid.— Boston Post.
