Reply from the Pew.

''JOe' Jones, one of Sans numerous
brothers, has enlisted in the ministry.
His first sermon was preached IN a
try church at Pine Log before a large
congregation Of farmers, backwOOdsmen
and crackers. Sans methods We're fol-
lowed with considerable success, but
when Joe branched off on his own hook
he struck a snag. He caused his hearers
to vince when, slapping the Bible nearly
off the pulpit. he exclaimed:
A man what will cuss a OathIl
stcal!'
There was a lively shifting among the
pews and much cautious looking around
and head shaking. Joe saw, and deter
mined to push his point.
''Brethren and sisters" he repeated,
Il want to say to you that a man what
will cuss a oathll steal. What have
YOU got to say to that"
An aged cracker arose at the back OF
the church and, fastening his glittering
gray eye on Joe, drawled through his
nose:
All got ter say is its er gol dern lie

on his oars two weeks before making

Cost of an Endemic.

Dir. Thresh. the medical officer for the
county Of Essex, having obtained full
returns of the late epidemic of influenza,
estimates that no less than $40 persons
died under the immediate attack, and
that no fewer than 1,400 deaths occurred
in the county from its direct or indirect
influence. The monetary loss for the
two months during which the epidemic
prevailed he states at no less han 600
600. n the basis Of the loss Of wages Of
adults calculated at twelve shillings a
week. He adds: Il am, however, afraid
that had the county suffered from an
epidemic among cattle. causing in the
time the same number Of deaths and in
dicating the same pecuniary loss. the
alarm produced would have been greater
and more permanent. British Medical

NaCaulay's Birth place.

Rothlcy Temple, Lord Macaulay's
birthplace, is for sale by public auction.
1t is an Old manor house, some six miles
from Leicester, and there the historian
was born at the end of the year 1900. 1t
cannot be said that Rothley Temple de-
rived more than nominal luster from
the association, for Macaulay left Leices-
tershire before he had left infancy,
and Birchin Lane, i'll the city, was the
home Of his earliest childhood. Instead
of a manorial park he had Diapers gar
dens for a playground, until he went to
live in the old High street at Chaplain.
The Leicestcrshire manor, however,
has many historical interests besides this
one, and a Thirteenth century chapel of
the Knights Templars is attached to the
estate. 1t is a wealthy manor, too, for
900 acres produce G 1000 Of annual rent;
and. moreover. it is at the headquarters
Of the famous Quorn Hunt, and in the
heart Of some famous sCenery.-London

Nearly 800. ooe.o 600 a Year.

Mr.. James Wright. second vice presi-
dent Of the Inman ls2c. says that when
the end of 1892 comes al least 100000
people will have left for Europe from
all parts Of this country during the
year. Half of them viii sail during the
fifteeL. weeks of the season. from April
70 August. Some travellers viii carry
hundreds Of dollars in their pocketbOoks
10 spend where others carry thousands,
Nine-tenths Of those hundreds and thou
sands Will be transferred to foreign own
ers before the tourists return.
Even the money spent for passage and
during the voyages must be counted III
that which bids goodby to this land OF
liberty, for the great steamship compa-
MES are, with one exception, foreign
corporations. Including tips and fees
these corporations will take an average
Of $3.50 from each passenger for the
round trip. The majority will pay less,
but there will be enough rich men who
who pay a good deal more to bring the
mean amount up to that figure.
The money which each tourist carries
with him is harder to estimate. a for
eign exchange clerk said that the letters
Of credit issued by them to European
travellers average about $500. or s., 900
each; but this is above the ordinary fig
ure, and Of course this in many cases
covers a party Of four or five. Eight
hundred dollars is estimated as the aver
age amount taken by each passenger in
the cabin. This makes the total average
expenditure Of the average European
traveller 5000. When this is mt piled
by the estimated total of these travelC-S
the result is astounding.
1t is 500, 00O, 900.
Ninety-six millions Of dollars carried
from America to Europe in a single year
by travellers alone! If this We're saved
for a few years Uncle Sam might buy a
good slice of Europe and bring it over
here for exhibition purposes. - New

LPnten Offerings.

The Lenten offerings of the Sunday
school children of the Protestant Episco-
pal church throughout the United States
thus far received in behalf Of the gener-
al board Of missions are largely in excess
of those for the same period in 1891. In
the two weeks Immediately succeeding
Easter 1.131 Sunday schools sent in SEQ
500, and it is believed a total Of $1,000
will have been received when all Of the
1000 schools in the country shall have
been heard from. This is double the
sum donated last year.
The Lenten Sunday school offering is
a feature of the work Of the board Of
missions. Just before Lent this year the
board sent a package of folding paste
board savings banks to each Sunday
school superintendent for distribution
among his pupils for the reception of the
chiIdren's savings during the fasting sea-
son.
No sooner had Easter passed than the
little banks began to arrive at the Offices
of the board in the Bible House.
The twenty-five young women in Bish-
op Leonard's school in Reno, New, sent
$3.50. One school sent in 5000 pennies
and another 10000 pennies.
1t will be July before all the returns
will have been received.-New York
