J Bailey, RA. (Baptist). who hal just entered the meet-

congregation with Limd-street Church, and alluding to
the remarks just made concerning prayer, related the
anecdote of the Christian minister and the sceptical
scientist, who argued concerning it,, worth, and the
worth of Christianity to the world. The scientist
maintained that the man who invented gas was a greater
benefactor than Josue Christ, and all the minister's
arguments did not conviace him to the contrary, tilt a
rough mechanic, one of the audience, rose and said ' You
need not ergo further about that, when the minister dies

also glad to see the chapel so ctherfully and prettily
decorated, and trusted every heart present was also as
cheerful in the Lord's service. Half the proceeds of the
tea and the Sunday at is...noon's collections are appropriated
to church and circuit funds, yet the financial remits to
the Minion Fund will be largely in excels of last year.
