Show MARY FIXED. We have a friend who some years ago on a trjp through Southern Utah, passed one night at the house of a portly bishop. After a pleasant evening, the bishop showed his guest his sleeping room. Oa e bureau was a frame in which had been a looking glass. The glass was out and in its stead was a picture of Mary Mannering. The bishop, pointing to it said: "Is she notya beauty?" The guest said: "Yes, she is accounted one of the most beautiful women in the country." "Let me tell you a secret," said the bishop. "I have been sealed for eternity to her in the temple. She will he my wife in the next world." Our friend gasped, but rallying, he said: "Of such are the kingdom of heaven," and all the night through in bis dreams he saw the bishop strumming a harp while Mary, leaning her divine head on the celestial ce-lestial shoulder of his meanwhile landlord, singing "1 Want to Be an Angel." |
