“  The  blessed  man  that  preached  for  us  last 
Sitnday,”  said  Mrs.  Partuigton,  "  served  the  Lord

“BnoTiiER,  why  don’t  you  ask  tl»e  stranger  to

“Which  is  the  deepest,  the  longest,  the

yard  ?”  said  a  iiedustriaii  to  Ills  oompaiiion,  while 
meditating  among  the  tombs  at  Esher.  “  Why,” 
ropUod  he,  “  it  is  that  in  which  Miles  Button  is 
buried,  for  it  Is  Milos  below  the  sod,  miles  in
