I'll VOTE FOR THE OTHER MAN.-The fol-
lowing story is told Of q revolutionary soldier
who was running for Congress: 1t appears he
was opposed hy much younger man, who
had never "bccn to the wars" and it was the
wont of Revolutionary" to tell the people Of
the hnrlships he endured. Says he:
Fellow citizens, have fought and blcd for
my country-l helped to whip the British and
Indians. have slept upon the field Of battle
with no other covering but tho canopy OF
heaven | have walked over frozen ground
till every footstcp was marked with blood"
Just about this time, one of the "sovereigns''
who had become very much affected by this
tale Of woe, walks up in front Of the speaker,
wiping the tears from his eyes with the ex.
trcmity Of his coat tail, and interrupting him,
SAYS:
"Did You say that you had fought the
British and the lUincs!"
"Ycs," responded Revolutionary.
"Did you say that you had slept on the
ground while serving your country, without
any kiverr"
"Ycs sir, I did"
Did you say you had followed the enemy
Of your country over frozen ground, till every
foOtstcp was marked with bloody"
EYES," exultingly replied the speaker.
"Well, then," says the fearful sovereign, "
as he gave sigh Of painful emotion, I" ri be
id i'll don't think you've done enough for
your country, and Ill vote for the other man I"

A steady rein, an even whip.

The Mystery Of the COnvolvulus.

No riddle doth the flower involve;
But many symbols bright and fair;
And sermons, too, Of weight 70 solve,
It's modest fragile leaves declare.
Its coiors: Lot us read them right
Purple, Of majeaty the sign,
As is Of purity, the white.
] need not to thy mind define
What means the meek-eyed tender blue;
II tells its own tale clear and true.
So in this vaselike flower, combined
We read those charms Of woman's face;
Virtue and dignity, entwined
With innocence and love and grace.
1t symbols, too, this little flower,
The shortness Of the life Of man;
Its own is only for an hour,
And his scarce stretches to its span.
Comfy its tender petals close,
Then meek aud silent bends its head,
Nav We as titly meet the thrOes
That number US among the dead.
Again: az passed the dews Of night,
This flower but spreads at morning light,
NAV not we sinners fondly hope,
That, passing through this vale Of tears,
Our eyes in trust aud iaith may opc
On glOrics Of the upper spheresf
Another lesson wnuld'st thou take,
q, dear one! Which that How'ret spake'
Rise nt the light quit thou the couch,
When open its ethcrial eyes;
And with thy living vision vouch
The Morning Gloiics Of the Skies:
The mM'n. and every waiting star,
Grown bright and brighter, to adOrn
A hcraldS dawning East aiar.
The coming of the rcquick'ning Morn.
Another sermon. still woul,i'st hcnrP
Is not there, then, little voice
Bend closer thy attentive ear
That bids us in our hearts rejoice,
That ever in the upper air
Are brighter glorics We may share.
Love! Nor yet is half the story
OF our house-side Morning Glory
Away deep in its mystic cell,
Reflected from the vault on high,
Slindowcd see little hand;
And ns look my eyelids swell,
II hCCk0nS to us rs wand,
II beck0ns to us from the sky.

BISHOPS OF THE M. e. CHURCH.

correspondent of the Yorkville Enquirer, who was
in attendance the General Conference gives the fol-
lowing interesting information concerning the Bishops
of the Methodist Episcopal Church:
"No Bishop was elected at the recent session,
though Bishop Capers had died since the last
General Conference, and one or two others repor-
ted themselves as in failing health. OF course 1t
is not law to elect one or more at every session.
The Church, South, had two to begin with in
1874, Soule and Andrew. Capers and Paine
were elected in 1916 at Petersburg; Bascom in
1850 at St Louis, and died the same year, Pierce,
Early and Kavannaugh, in 1851.
The Church, North, has elected four since the
division-Simpson, Scott, Baker, and Ames The
Bishops OF the whole Church in the United States,
beginning in 1874, in the order Of their election
have been as follows: Coke, Asbury, What
coat, McKendree, Roberts, George, Soule Hcdding,
Andrew, Emory, Morris, Waugh, Hamn, Jones'
Capers, Paine, Bascom, Simpson, Scott, Baker,
Amcs, Pierce, Early and Kavannaugh.-24.
Bishop Coke aternated between the Wesleyan
connection in England, and the Church in Amcri-
ca, crossing the ocean and traversing the whole
land East and West, North and South often; and
at last died at sea- on a visit to Missions in the
East Indies and was buried in the depths Of the
Indian Ocean.
work and live" in 1916, journeying from Rich
mond towards Baltimore, where the General Con-
ference was soon to assemble
Emory died in consequence of hurt received
from a fall from vehicle in 1886, four years at
ter his election.
Hamn resigned the Office in 1913, four years
after his election, and l believe is still living.
OF the twenty-four, thirteen are still alive
Hamlin counted out, there six effective in the
Northern branch; and Bishop Soule superanuated
in the South, leaves five effective with us, Bishop
Soule having been longer in office than any other
-thirty-four years; Asbury having been in office
may be allowed to say in conclusion, there never
has been an inferior man in the office, has
there been blur upon the n,oroi character of
Bishop among us; and they are held to close
scrutiny, and rigid responsibility, as all atten-
tive observers can readily see"
