It na* to b o a great day for tlie (xtoplo o f th a t church, and the choir n r o n t Ut bave e v e ry body go homo saying: “ W h a t lovely music we had Uwiay ” E v e ry body, th n t is, wbo had any oar a t all for h a r m o ny Bo they practiced long and loud. The soprano trilled, the tenor held ou long to his high notes, the basso rum b le d in hie throat and the big violoncello grow led back a t tho basso. It wax a w a rm day and tho door wae wide open. A cow wax grazing peacefully in tbe churchyard. R r-r-r-rill, rippled the soprano. W iH e w -ee-ng, soarnd the tenor, up high. Doom,--boom-boom, roared the basso. Zoom ztMjui-zooin, buzzed the big flddla. It was very line. Itoftxy out tn tlie yard shipped eating, and turmxl her h ead on one side to listen. Moo oo-oo, exclaim ed Bossy gently. The choir paid no a ttention to her, though, b u t sang on like ail |><iMM«*ed. They would split their thro a ts hut they would grind out ccrw aivd cnom . line tunes for Hunday Ixiudor a n d louder they sang, till Bowiy could stand it no longer. Hhe l*it her head in a t the door to see w h a t It was all alxm t The sounds grated on her ear for music. M<>»>-no oo! said the cow energetically. Then she lowered her head and sw itched her tail. There was in her eye a look th a t plainly m e a n t busine**. Hhe c h a rged on th a t choir In I cmm tim e than it take* to say Jack Rohin> son.

The soprano a n d contralto ran as if a witch on a bnxiiuslick was r f t e r them. They did not stop to Mx* w h ether thoir skirts flowed gracefully or not. In tiio tw inkling of a n eye the church was cleared of a ll but the cow and the benmes. Hhe looked a t thorn a m om ent, and then m ade a charge on them ju s t as she had on the choir. Hhe butted them over and tore the cushiou* upon her horns till all was a sight to heboid. A fter th a t Boouy paused a m o m ent and looked around on the ruin she hod made, a h if to say : “T h a t’s my opinion of choir rehearsals.” Then she *aid “moo” softly, and w e n t back to nibbling gras* in the churchyard.
