 of their par value.
 The Rev. George F. Pentecost has written an article on ''The Pay of Evangslists," in which he says: cone of the matters that seem to agitate and distress the minds of certain persons and newspapers, neither of whom are ever called upon in any way te contribute to the pay of svangelists, is how and how much the said evaagelists are paid? For my part, I do not see why it should con- cern anyone who is not party to the trans action between churches and evangelists to know anything about it. Lt would seem that it is none of their business" The Herald and Presbyter of Cincinnati replies with a little side light on the question, and says: If the people and papers in question have not been called to pay the bills of evangelists they are more fortunate than some editors and others with whom we are acquainted. believe in conservative methods are repeated ly called on to pay bills incurred in evan- gelistic movements which they do not favor, or in regard to the inauguration of which they are not even consulted"
 Mir. Elihu Root told the Brooklyn Citizens league the other night something about the defects in the present system of voting. In the course of his remarks he said: Fifteen thousand names were registered from tramp lodging houses in New York in 1887. It is safe to say that fourteen thousand of these were registered for the purpose of sell been reduced to system under which the lodging house keepers make the contracts. There is trustworthy evidence of eye wit nesses who have seen such contracts. The tramps are marshaled in the lodging house and march in 8 body to the polling place, &C., cempanied by the ballot distributor, holding up in plain sight in one hand the ballots they are not changed until they are actually deposited in the ballot box. When that has been accomplished they proceed to some ap- pointed rendezvous, and, upon his testimony as to their performance of the contract, they receive the $2 or $5, or whatever may be the consideration for the vote. Of course if each one of these tramps had full sets of tickets for all the candidates, and if instead of their being accompanied to the polls by the dis. tributor they were required to vote in such manner that no one but themselves could know what ballots they voted, there would be practically an end of bribery, because no one would pay money upon the word of a man who wonld sell his vote

A PURITAN COUNTRY CHURCH. Sister Sudden, the Rev. HIT. Aallelujah, and the Rev. MT. Mandragora.

and the Rev. MT. ManGr2goras
 From the Congregatonalist.l
 We have always noticed that Sister Sudden is 8 great favorite for little while with new members of our church. She has rather good face, with dark hair and kindling eyes. and an impetuous nature and manner. and she always goes in for all the new things; although she doesn't always stay in a great while. Oar city missionary every now and then comes into the church meeting with a piteous tale of want or woe or whatever, requiring immediate help, and often asks for one or more volunteers for aid in pushing on his diff cult, and not uniformly thankful, work. Sister Sudden always volunteers, but after a week or two of toil something is apt to happen in her family or somewhere, or she will be sick. or have to go out of town with scarcely any warning; so that in one way or another, with infinite reluctance, it becomes needful for her to surrender her task to other hands.
 Our new pastorsih ihabitually like Sister Sud den. We speak of those beloved and hon. ored men in the plural number, bnt we dc not thereby mean to suggest that we enjoy collegiate ministrations; while VIC wish it to be distinctly understood that we are a church which is thoroughly convinced of the wisdom of settled ministry. as compared with the unscriptural and unreasonable itineracy of some of our evangelical brethren. Yet in some way it has curieusly happened that during the last fourteen years we have been called upon to invite and entertain seven ordaining councils and six dismissing l ones, while the Methodist church on the other side of the Common, in the same period l has had but five preachers, the last of whom | has year longer to stay. It cannot be de- | nied that an average of two years instead of
 three is not brilliant illustration of that spermanent ministry" on which we pride ourselves; but there is no rule without ex. captions, and we have been for some time ir an exceptional state. The Rev. Mir. Hallelu.

 Bishop Garrett. of Texas, has been telling the Women's Episcopal Missionary society of Washington that they should quit spending so much money on South Sea Islanders and send few missionaries to the Lone Star State. "We want pioneers" he says-"men who know how to take care of themselves along the frontiers. Brave, sturdy fellows not afraid of the open mouth of 8 revolver nor of the yell of drunken cowboy. Men with muscles of steel, who can, any of them, throw 8 yearling steer over wire fence as easily as he can jerk lawless coyote out of a religious meeting if he attempts to make a disturbance"
 NJ. de Caudalle, French investigator, has come to the conclusion from his researches that women have larger proportion of brown eyes than men. He also finds that when both parents have eyes of 8 like color the chances are eighty-eight to twelve that their children who arrive at the age of ten years (when the color of the eye is fxedD will have eyes of the same color. When the parents have eyes of different colors the chances are hfty-fve to forty five in favor of brown as against blue or gray eyes in the children. He is also of opinion that the health of the brunette type is as a rule supe- rior to that of the blonde type.
 Some of the secrets of the trade in brandy are divuIged by the British vice-consul at La Rochelle The too common method is this: A London firm has its agent at Hamburg, whe there purchases 8 cheap spirit manufac- tured in Germany from potatoes. It costs about two shillings 6 gallon. No doubt it is wholesome enough, and if imported direct to
 London might be sold under it's proper naSee and at fair price without detriment to com- 1nerciaI morality. But this is not done. The potato spirit is first sent to Bordeaux, and I thence rs-exported to London and marked az
 real Cognac. And as Cognac it is sold in London at prices ranging to upwards eff ten
 shillings the gallon. The profits of this trade ! must be considerable.

Sister Sudden is great at pienic-fancy a whole nation, like the FIeRch people, spell ing that word plque-nique; no wonder they have trouble with their presidents-or a fair, CT Sunday school excursion, or a soeiable or candy scrape, or any of thoss delightful pecularities with which our. churches now and then come down from their habitual altitude of godliness toward the level of the world, as the little steamer in a Swiss lake fllips round in the most extraordinary and zigzag manner among the towns on the banks to take in passengers. She-that is Sister Sudden-is full of energy and usefulness on such occa- sions; ready to do and be anything to insure success, and her flashing style has proved it. self admirable and effective in charge of a weighing machine, Mrs. Jarley's wax works or an "Aunt Sally"
 We have the Apostle Paul for it-and he was speaking of the church-that those mem bers (which seem to be more feeble are necessary, 1" any wise man will say that our Sudden sisters have an important ''sphere" in our churches. The hard coal fire whose glowing urgency raises the steam to drive the massive engines which do our great works has to be started by blaze of kindlings. And the kindlings have to be brought to 8 flame by the preliminary combustion of a wisp of straw or roll of paper.

Of course we couldn't pay person, though parson, for preaching stolen sermons, and that ended him.
 The next man came highly recommended by one of our most prominent city divines. and appeared well, though rather pale and ghastly individuals; until someone found on the table of his room in his boarding house an enormous chunk of opium with peculiar ly irregular teeth marks around the edges. The teeth were obviously his; and his fares well sermon soon followed. But, as we were on the subject of Sister Sudden, we will go further in this bio graphical pastoral series: the point being that Sister Sudden was always the first to appreciate in his turn the peculiar excel lence of each new conner. Her heart went out to him. One of the most timid of the lot, and the one who stayed longest, con- fessed that in his case her impetuous recep- ton was what turned the scale between us and the church in Cloverville, which, indeed, was offering fifty dollars less salary than we were. It ought in fairness to all parties, perhaps, to be added here that if Sister Sud den be Invariably the first to welcome the coming ministerial guest she has also never been behindhand in speeding the parting one. She it was who recognized the tell tale teeth marks of Mir. Mandragora, and who felt at once that his usefulness was at an end-and made no secret of that feeling.
 Sister Sudden has not been happy in her so to speak-domestic relations. .Congreves couplet: Thus grief still treads upon the heels of pleasure Married in haste, we may repent at leisure, falls in exactness of application to her case, mainly because she remains single still; but she is known to have been ''engaged" good many times-with no results that amounted to much.
