Ga0d A uYice.

Mr.. Il. j. Rurdette, he OF the Hawk
eye, gives the following advice to Q
young man:
NY son, when you hear a man growl'
I ing and scolding because Moody gets
$500 week for preaching christianity,
you will perceive that he never worries
a minute because Ingersoll gets 5000 a
night for preaching atheism. You will
observe that the man who Is unuttera-
hly shocked because f. Murphy gets
$3.50 week for temperance work, seems
to think 1t is all right when the bar
keeper takes in twice so much money
in single day, This laborer is worthy
of his hire, my boy, and he is Just as
worthy of it in the pulpit as he is upon
the stump. Is the man who is honestly
trying to save your immortal soul
worth less than the man who Is only
trying his level best to 60 to Congress?
Isn't Moody doing as good work as
Ingeraoll? Isn't John b. Cough as
much the friend of humanity and So
ciety as the bartender ? Do you want
to get all the good in the world for
nothing, so that you may be able to
pay high price for the bad? RemeE.
Der, my boy, the good things in the
world are always the cheapest. Spring
water costs less than corn whisky; a
box of cigars will buy two or three Bi-
bles; gallon of old brandy costs more
than barrel of -four; full hand" at
poker often costs man more in twenty
minutes than his church subscription
amounts to in three years; a state tlec-
tion costs more than a revival Of relig-
ion; you can sleep in church every Sun
day morning for nothing, if you're
mean enough to dead beat your lodging
in that way, but a nap in a Pullman
car costs you two dollars every time;
fifty cents for the circus and penny
tor the little ones to put in the mission
ary box; one dollar for the theatre ard
pair of old trousers frayed at the end,
baggy as to ths knees and utterly burs.
ted as to the dome, for the Michigan
sufferers; the dancing lady who tries
to wear the skirt of the dress under her
arms and the waist around her knees
and kicks her slipper clear over the Or
chestra chairs every night, gets $500 a
week, and the city missionary gets $500
a year; the horse race scoops in $1,000
the first day and the church fair lasts
week, works twenty Ave or thirty of the
best women in America nearly to death,
and comes out $40 in dsbt,-why, my
boy, if you ever ind yourself sneering
or scoffing because once In while, you
hear of a preacher getting a living, or
even a luxurious salary, or a temper
ance worker making money, 20 out in
the dark and feel ashamed of yourself
and if you don't feel above kicking a
mean man, kick yourself. Precious
little does religion and charity cost the
old world, u.y boy, and when the mon
ey it does is fang into his face, like a
bone to dog the douor is not benefit
ted by the gift, and the receiver is not,
and certainly should no., be grateful.
1t is insulted.

Mrs. (iarG cid.

G. A. Townsend (Gath) contri butes
the following bit Of gossip about Mrs.
Garfield and her wealth;
Mrs. Ga1tlall Is ius5 ..> modest; quiet
a little woman as ever, though s1' i'a
rich woman now-that is to say, she is
SO much richer than she ever was before
that she is considered rich by herself,
her friends and her neighbors. I would
like to take you around to see her il
you come to Cleveland. She is a great
pet in our town, though she does no:
seem to know il. Cleveland worships
the memory of Garfield. She has $780,
600 in Government bonds, the result of
the subscription. Then her husbands
life was insured for $4,000, which she
promptly received She also was paid
the salary of the President for the
unoccupied first year. amounting to
about S20,00U That makes $4O0,O 900,
does it not? Very well. Then add to it
$50, ,000-the total value of Gartield's
estate. That was the total amount that
be was able to accumulate in a life of
fifty years. suppose that the income
from this total of more than S4OO, 900
will be SIG, 600 year. She is alsC put
on the pension llSt hb c",Voo oaA' Nv
she is comfortable, ana can raise her
children WE'LL but the loss of Garfield
was a blow that will leave its scar as
long as she lives. Just think of that
little woman, almost dying at the
White House, when he took her to the
seaside, and returned to meet his death
wound, and she then raliying, watch
ing over him for months, surviving him
and being well to-day.
