Interested in an Arrival.

Worcester Gazette, A Worcester deacon sent to represent his church at the receni Congregational Conference at Pittsfield, in presenting the report of his performance of his duties, at the midweek prayermeeting of the church recently, told a very amusing story of childish confusion of terms. A little Pittsfield girl had evidently been greatly impressed by the preparations at her home for the entertainment of her delegate. She was earnestly watching, in common with the others of the family, for his arrival, and finally broke nut with the question, “Hasn’t the hypocrite come yet?" The family told the story to the delegate. He knows a good thing when he hears it, and reperted it to his church.
