. A young man at a social party was vehemcntly urged to sing song. He replied that he would

 first tell story, and then. if they still persisted in their demand. he would endeavor to execute song. When boy, he said, he took lessons in singing, and on one Sunday morning, he went up into the garrett to practise alone. While in full cry, he 1yas suddenly sent for by the old gentleman.

 |" This is pretty conduct 2! said the father. "pret. ty employment for the son of pious parents. to be saving boards in the garret on Sunday morning, loud enongh to be heard by all the neighbors- Sit down and take your book"

 The young man was unanimously excused from singing the proposed song.
