"Now answer, Jim! How many kinds of sin are there?"
"Two," responded little Jim.
"What are these two kinds, Bob?"
"Original and actual," Bob answered.
"What is original sin?" asked Ellen, raising one little forefinger to keep Bobby quiet. This was too hard a question for Jim, and with some stumbling Bobby succeeded in saying,—
"It is that sin in which I was conceived and born."
"Now, Jim," said Ellen, "you can answer this question, 'cause it's only one word, and begins with 'y.'"
"No fair!" cried Bob; "that's telling."
But Ellen proceeded to give the question: "Doth original sin wholly defile you, and is it sufficient to send you to hell, though you had no other sin?"
"Yes!" roared Jim, pleased at being certainly right.
