CAUTIOUS MEN.-Some men use
words as rihemen do bullets, They
say but little. The words used go
right to the mark. They let you talk,
and guide with their eye and face on
and on till what you say can be an
swered in word or two, and then they
lance out sentence, pierce the matter
to the quick, and are done. You never
know where you stand with them.
Your conversation falls into their
mind as rivers into deep chasm, and
is lost.

AMERICAN PREAoHNG,-Newman
Hall says Of American preaching:
The sermons are too precise, too
elaborate, too argumentative, too es-
say-like, too much like books, and too
little like earnest talk. Moreover,
they are too often read with strict ad-
herenee to the prepared manuscript,
and thus, though if reported verbatim,
they would be read as finished
treatises, as heard, they are frequent
ly unimpressiVe."
