"What is it, dear?"

know
the answer to." |

Life's Difficulties
Father:
"Why you cry son, what's the matter?"
Small boy (tearfully):

Father: "Then why
don't you?"

afraid the worm
won't like it." |

SERVICES
The famous New York preacher and author,
some
years ago took charge of the local Presbyterian Church in
Illinois.
Shortly after going there he required the services of a physician, and
on the advice of one of his parishioners called in a doctor noted for
his
ability properly to emphasize a good story, but who attended church
very
rarely. He proved very satisfactory to the young preacher, but for some
reason could not be induced to render a bill. Finally preacher,
becoming
alarmed at the inroads the bill might make in his modest stipend, went
to the physician and said, "See here, Doctor, I must know how much I
owe
you."
After some urging, the physician replied: "Well, I'll tell you what
I'll do with you, preacher. They say you're a pretty good preacher, and
you
seem to think I am a fair doctor, so I'll make this bargain with you.
I'll
do all I can to keep you out of heaven if you do all you can to keep me
out of hell, and it won't cost either of us a cent. Is it a go?" |

Why do
toasters always have a setting so high that could burn the toast to a
horrible crisp, which no decent human being would eat?
