On the arrival of the train a charming little ladyali.dited and our friend in his usual polite way, asked if she was Mrs. Denny. On receiving an allirmathd answer he introduced himself and hurried her to hia palatial residence where bin c.od wife had every tiling in splendid order. On his way homo lie informed every one whom he met that the lecturer had come and extended a special invitation to all to be present. Having made her acquainted with his wife, he went and had the church lighted, fires mad?, an I had everything in readiness. The house bejan rapidly to fi'.l and he went and informed the "lecturer" that it WA9 about time to go to the church. She innocently asked what was the nature of the entertainment. Our . "hero" was dumbfounded an l after two or three attempts he finally asked: "Aren't you the lecturer'.'" Sim said in a very embarrassed manner, ''Why, no. I came here to visit a younr lady friend of mine, and I (supposed you was her fat.':er to meet me."
