Inappropriate Quotations.

The following Is a. good example of inappropriate quotations: A clergyman appointed to an East End living found his parish church sadly In need of repair and gave orders for Its renovation. While this was in band the idea occurred 4o him to visit the mission halls in connection with it to see what might be needed there. In one of them which was used as a mission chapel he found a state of Indescribable filth from end to end and an accompanying effluvia. In disgust he raised Ills eyes toward the roof and could hardly repress a fit of laughter on reading the text stenciled on the wall behind the pulpit, “How dreadful is this place!” Another story is of an old Presbyterian clergy* man who, away on a preaching engagement, found above the bed on which he was to sleep the singular advice, “Occupy till I come.”—London Chronicle.
