AMENs.-Personally, we are fond of hearty
amens In prayer and sermons. They have an
earnestness and inspiration no ways faulty"
Yet they are sometimes strangely put In. The
other evening at the missionary ratification
meeting in New York, Bishop James was speak
ing, and incidentally observed that he hoped
to come to the point of his speech-aAmen,"
cried good brother, causing burst of laugh
ter, in which the Bishop joined. One preach
er was struggling in the bush for half an hour.
At length he extricated himself, and to one of
his first appeals came "Amen" The preacher
looked over the pulpit and said in low tone,
IF you had said that half an honr ago it would
have helped me-now can get along without
it.-lNor Western Advocate.
