The Wise Bishop.

Tb the brilliant Episcopal bishop of Tennessee, Dr. Thomas F. Gailor, a Memphis man of rather narrow views complained about charity balls. “I doubt if it be quite reverent, bishop,” the man said, “to give a ball for the.- purposes of charity.” But Bishop Gailor, with a saving burst of common se&se, laughed and replied: “Why, my dear fellow, I’m sure, If it would do anybody any good, I’d dance the whole length of Memphis in full canonicalß.”
