John Brown.

John Brown, who probably receiv-
ed more presents than any other
mental in the history OF the English
Court, was shrewd enough to antici-
pate the embarrassment which would
be caused to his friends if he died pos
.sessing the gifts themselves, SO twas
the prudent custom of that domestic
to sell nearly everything that he re-
ceived within a few weeks. John
Brown was constantly being COM
plimented with costly gifts, but he
wisely preferred to possess their value
in cash, and in several cases the Bond
street jeweler who had sold the pres
emit to the Royal donor, bought it
back within a short time from the
recipient at very nearly the cost
price.

Materialism i'm America.
IAN Abbott in the Century.

Dr.. Lyman Abbott in the Century.
do not ask that men of wealth
shall give more money to the church,
which is often stronger when it is
poor than when it is rich; nor to the
poor and thriftless, whom u~nearned
money only keep in poverty. l urge
that the power to make money, like
any other power, is q trust bestowed
on the possessor for humanity. The
preacher who breaches for his salary,
not for the spiritual well-being of his
parishioners, is a mercenary; the
physician who practices for his fees,
not to cure the sick, is a mercenary;
the lawyer who pleads for his honor
arium. not forjustice, is a mercenary;
the politician who enacts laws for
what he can make, not for the COM
munity, is a mercenary; no less the
manufacturer, the merchant, the
trader, the man on change, who
transacts his business to make money,
but to give the community its meat
in due season, is a mercenary. In the
history of the nineteenth century, the
doctrine that wealth is a trust must
stand by the side ofthe doctrine that
labor is an honor and liberty is an
obedience. The materialism that
threatens the American Church is not
the materialism of Herbert Spencer.
1t is the materialism of the railroad,
the factory, the shop-the material
ism that puts thinghood above man
hood; thatdoes not knowthat things
were made for man, not man for
things-that God gives us, not Irish
men to build our railroads, but rail-
roads to build Irishmen; not Hungari-
ans to dig our mines, but mines to
develop manhoodin Hungarians.
