Not Quite Appropriate.

A young fellow, says the New York Times, was looking over the various purchases of his stepmother, intended for a long and varied list. “Did you say this was for the new clergyman?” he inquired, holding up one card. “Yes,' that with the dove flying against the blue sky. Pretty, isn’t it?” He gave a low whistle. “You didn’t happen to read the legend, I suppose?" She shook her head. u “I never thought of it Why?” He tossed it into her lap and she saw: “I would take thee to my bosom, but thou wilt not come.” The new clergyman did not get his Christmas card.
