done duty in more than one scheme for

THE case of Joseph Lichty. Mems
MONTE who fell under the ban Of the
church and was accommodated, is a
queer one. According to the rites OF
the church. his wife was not permitted
to live with him. He objected to the
separation. Whenever love seemed to
be getting the better of religion. the
elders brsced her up for the moral con.
dict. Lichty stood the Intervention for
q season, but finally hired a lawyer. The
law Of the land was invoked TO protect
him. The elders dashed into court
armed with Dutch bible and the CON-
mentaries Of Menno. A jury was inl-
panelled, the lawyer quoted law, the el>
ders read extracts from the bible and
commentary. The clash between churei,
and state was fearful, but the state tri>
umphed and the happy Lichty pressed
his darling to his heart, and pocketed
an award Of twenty>6Ye hundred dol,

The demand for such a system seems to
be universal. The failure of so many
banks and the dishonesty of officials
who had been trusted with the hard
earnings of laboring people and the
funds OF widows and orphans, has un>
mined public confidence in these insti-
tutions TO an unfortunate extent, 1t is
not so much high rate OF interest that
they want as an absolute safety for their
deposits, and the feeling of security that
such safety generates, One powerful
incentive to industry, frugality and
temperance is destroyed when people
lose the results of their hard toll and
Pinching economy. The postal savings
system has been tried in England, and
with such admirable results that it is
now proposed TO extend the scope of its
operations. The experience of England
Will doubtless be repeated in this coun-
try. The Long Bill, which passed the
senate last week, does not meet the
requirements. 1t is obviously unwise
snd unfair to ask poor people to loan
their savings to the government at

receive. The denominations of the
