A Future Arrangement

“I canna’ leave ye thus, Nancy,” a good old Scotchman wailed. “Ye’re too auld trf Work, an* ye oouldn’a live in the almßhouse. Gin I die, ye maun marry anither man, wha’ll keep ye in comfort in yer auld age.” * “Nay, nay, Andy,” answered the good spouse. “I could na’ wed anither man, for what wad I do wi’ twa husbands in- heaven? - - Andy pondered long over this, but .suddenly his face brightened. “I have it, Nancy,” he cried. “Ye ken auld John Clemmenß? Re’s a kind man, but he is na' a member of the kirk. He likes ye, Nancy, an’ gin ye’ll marry him, 'twill be all the same in heaven—John’s na’ Christian.”
