Caesar's Stinginess.

A recently consecrated bishop o 1 the Episcopal-church has a youthful son who not long ago asked his Sun-day-school teacher who was the stingiest man mentioned in the Bible. The teacher saw that the lad wanted the opportunity to answer the questioc himself, so he said: “I don't know, do you?” “Yes, Cassar,” was the reply. “Why Ca?sar?” asked the puzzled teacher. “Why, don’t you see?” said the boy, “the pharisees gave our Lord a penny, and when he asked them ‘Whose subscription is this?’ they said, ‘Caesar’s,’ and I think he must have been a pretty mean man to give so little.”
