How A Pastor Got the Pew Rents.

The Pastor of church in Northeast
Baltimore. last week devised new way
to collect pew rents. Several OF his
congreg alton being remiss in their set
Elements, he ordered the pews of the
delinquents to be nailed up. Qnite a
number were thus secured, and the
Pastor announced that he had adopted
means to secure the prompt payment Of
the money due him, without which he
could not conduct the affairs Of the
church satisfactorily. He called atten.
ton to tho fact that the delinquents
we're nearly all, if not all, able to pay.
Their wives and daughters bristled
with silk and tlounces and furbelows,
and the pew rent remained urpaid.
The novel expedient has proved com
plete success.

Perhaps it will be said that these
games are not particularly new. The
wise man said, "There is nothing
new under the sum-" and games are
not to be the exception. The same
sports which were common one hun
lred and fifty years ago are enjoyed
to-day; the only difference is that
they are carried on in a more refined
fashion. And it is all the pleasanter
that it should be so. 1t is delight
ful to think that our children take
pleasure in the same games that our
grandfathers and grandnothers did.
Let us hope that the Christmas sea-
son may long retain its influence as
well as its games: that it may bind
heart to heart, and, as Washington
sadi, " We may draw our pleasure
from the deep wells of living kind
ness which lie in the quiet recesses
OF our bosoms, and which, when
resorted to, furnish forth the pure
element of domestic felicity"
