How He Would Have Preached

IN letter to the Western Christian i'd
0ocote, Bishop Kingsley tells the following
amusing anecdote Of the ingenious plan by
which Methodist preacher circumvented
the efforts of religious bigots, in one Of the
small States of Germany, to prevent him
from preaching:
On one occasion, when the congregation
had assembled, and the preac cher was all
ready to begin his discourse, a peremptory
order came, forbidding him to preach This
was great disappointment to the people,
as many go ten or twelve miles on foot to
hear preaching
The preacher arose and expressed his
deep regret at being forbidden to preach to
them. Said be:
''it would harmed no one if had been
allowed to preach. | was intending to
preach from the following text (he here
named the texDthat he should have preached
from if he had been allowed
''And Them said he, II intended to di-
vide the subject as he should have made
them had he been permitted.
''Then | had designed to treat the first
division in the following way" Here he
told them what he should have said on the
first division had he not been hindered.
''And then | intended had | not been pre-
vented to have said the following things
under the second head"
And so he went on and told his hearers
how he should have begun, continued, and
ended bis discourse had he not been prohib-
tied from doing So Of course this man had
been in America.

binary routine that nearly every one fol-

shriveIed out Of all semblance of themselves
in shape. size and flavor, Oh else the soup

spoils it. Here is the right method. Try
it once, and we'll warrant you won't need
telling the second time. Pick the oysters
out of the juice with fork, as dry as pos
sible stew the juice thickening, milk or
water, of which the soup is to be made, un-
til thoroughly cooked, then drop the oys.

ENCOURAGE Your Own 1t is the true in
terest of every one to encourage the mer
chants, manufacturers, mechanics and
trsdesmen of his own town. He who will
not do so manifests but little regard for
the prosperity of the place where he lives
The man who invariably makes purchases
abroad should also look abroad for employ
ment In order to build up and add to the
size and prosperity of any place, the citizens
thereof must support and encourage each
other. The property holder will thus be
benefited by tue advance of the value of
his possessions the mechanic by the cree
ton and improvement of stores and dwell
lings and the laborer by the increased de
mand of his services If every one should
go abroad to make his purchafes, trades of
all kinds would become very dull at home,
business would languish, men would have
no work, the grass would grow III our streets
aud only the rich would have any money
in very short time to purchase anything
either at home or abroad.
