Death of Mrs. Thurston.

The New York Observer says: owe have
Just received letter from Honolulu, an.
nouncing the death of Mrs. Lucy G. Thurs
ton, one of the first band of missionaries that
left this country for the Sandwich Islands
She was the widow of Rev. Asa Thurston, to
whom she was married in 1919, and with
whom she sailed for the Islands the same
year, wholly ignorant of the reception that
might be awaiting them. They learned, on
arriving off the harbo-. that the Hswaiians
had cast away their idols and were waiting
for new religion to be brought them. From
that time until the death of Mr.. Thurston,
which occurred few years since, they had
labored together in the gospel of Christ, hav-
ing been important instruments in the reno
walton of the Hawaiian people and govern
ment, and their introduction into the family
of Christian nations. The moral and rel
gious change which has taken place in the
meantime has been one of the most remarka-
BILE in the history of Christianity.
Mrs. Thurston was lady of remarkable
characteristics Of strong intellect, indomi-
table perseverance, of great practical wis-
dom, and of devoted piety, she was, from the
first, one of the most influential members of
the Mission, and she has left her mark upon
the Christian nation which has had its birth
and growth to maturity within the present
century.
Mrs Thurston had been in feeble health
for many months, and her death was not
unexpected. She fell asleep October 18th.
She had nearly completed her 01st year,
having been born November 20, 1885,"

ADDRESS OF PULPIT TO PEW.
No. 6.

CONSIDERING THE WANTS OF THE PASTOR.
Let us sit down now and have a cosy little
talk over the subject announced. We must
not take up too much time in the introduc-
ton, but come to the point at once. None
but pastors could have written all that is
said in our Confession of Faith, &c.-about
the pastors Office and the mutual obligations
of the people and the pastor. They know
how important to the people it is to have the
pastor freed from anything like anxious
thought about the support and comfort of
himself or family, hence the Sin order that
you may be free from worldly care" &C., in
the call, and the required promise upon the
part of the people "to continue competent
worldly maintenance" and "whatever else
they may see to be needful for the honor of
religion and his comfort among them. =
Draw the contrast in your own minds between
that pastor whose people do what they prom
Use in considering his wants, and that one
whose people forget or neglect the obligation.
Which can do his work best Which people
will be best served? Which can best study
the spiritual wants of his people, and minis
ter to them? leave it with you to answer.
Put yourself in his place. Ask yourself
"How would / like the people to serve me,
in order that | might best serve them p
The head of each family in congregation
ought to look upon the pastors family as
part and parcel of his own. He is the SER
want of all. The more he is freed from con-
sidering the temporal wants of his own fami-
ly, the more time and thought he can give
to his charge. Suppose you employ SER
want to do certain kind of work for you,
and in order that he may serve you properly,
you agree to furnish him with food and cloth
ing, and whatever else may be for his we'll
being: but you fail to keep your promise
so that your servant has to take much time
to procure what you promised to supply! Is
it not clear that your work will not be 80
we'll done? All the time and thought devo-
ted to supplying his wants will necessarily
be taken from doing your work. Is it not
thus with the pastor and his people? He is
their servant. ale sows to them spiritual
things" it is not strange if he expects to
reap of their temporal things.
If you have heretofore failed to do your
duty, you whole duty towards him whom you
have called to be your pastor, let me advise
you to be very uneasy in mind until you
come up to the standard of your obligation.
If every pastor in our church had an ade-
quate salary, there would be no necessity for
any such talk as this. If real pinching pow
