The Salaries of Preachers.

DIR. Carroll, of the New York Inde-
pendent, and Chief of Bureau of Church
Statistics, has been studying pastoral
salaries. The Episcopalians pay $1,000
on an average; the Congregationalists,
about s1100; the Presbyterians, some
what over $1,000; the NJ. f. Church
North, sS47; the NJ. f. Church tSouth),
only 800 per annum.
In the Mississippi Conference, the
Vicksburg district pays the best aver
age salary, about $3.50; Jackson district
comes second, with about $3.50; Meri-
dian follows, paying about S515; Brook
haven pays somewhat over $500; Wood
vile does scarcely SO we'll, dropping
under $500; Seashore is content with
800; and Brandon cuts this down to
about $500. If we eliminate few of
the stronger stations and circuits, the
mean average is away below $500 pei
annum.
Comment would seem unnecessary
Nothing save the grace of God and the
unmistakable call of the Spirit to g
ministry of self-sacrifice keeps up our
ranks. And while God calls laborers
into the ministry, this truth is mani
fest from the above, that His church
does not SO cooperate with His Spirit
as to render their labor most effective

An Immense Devil Fish.
William H. Dali in Science. |


In 1874 I speared an octopus in the
harbor of Iliuliuk, Unalashka, which
was afterward hung, by cord tied
around the body Immediately behind
the arms, to one of the stern davits Of
the coast survey vessel under my COM
mand.
AS soon as tho animal died and the
muscles relaxed, noticed that the tips
of the longer tentacles just touched the
water. On measuring the distance with
a cord, I found it to be sixteen feet,
giving the creature spread, from tip
to tip of the longest pair of arms, of not
less than thirty-two feet The arms to-
ward the tips were all exceedingly slen-
der, but rather stout toward the body,
which was somewhat over foot long.
The largest suckers were two and half
inches in diameter; the whole creature
nearly filed large washtub.
Having heard octipi were eatable, and
the flesh looking white and clean, we
boiled some sections of the arms in salt
and water, but found them so tough
and elastic that our teeth could not
make the slightest impression on them.

tory and Literature, Studies in Art
Modern History, Geology, and Reli
gious Literature. The books of the
course are the best to be had in the

agement and help of such as desire
broader and better culture, and are SC
circumstanced as to be unable to go to

Henry Clay's Little raiiinxs

Henry Clay's weaknesses were poker
and jackasses. He actually played away
his salary as congressman and senator -
regularly as Saturday night came
around. In small upstairs room ia
Hancock's, on table they can show you
here now, lie would sit with some
irony all night, fascinated by the Ken
lucky game. He was not good player.
He bet recklessly for all the fun there
was, and lost of course. It is notorious
that he lost one Saturday night to the
father of Dick Bright of Indiana 81 500,
and paid the debt with decd to 800
acres of land in Kentucky and some
stock in a Louisville bank.
On one occasion Clay became crazy to
own jackass that Commodore Rogers
had brought among number Of others
from the Mediterranean. Clay wanted
TO improve his mule stock at Ashland.
This beast was a pure Andalusian, and
had excellent points, according to the
standards known to breeders. The
commodore, however, knew the value of
his animal as we'll as did Clay. He
wanted to keep him. Then, as now, q
great mans wish was law in a social
way.
Rogers had to let Clay have his Anda-
lusian iackass, but Clay would not let
it be gift, and returned the compli-
ment by deciding to the commodore
what is now called .okingly Brewster
park" the large corner lot adjoining
the department of ustice and diago-
nally across from the White House. II

would want if he were coming to Wash
ington to live. 1t is worth, probably,
5000, ,000-more than the posterity Of

WHEN TO ADMINISTER MEDICINE.
Before or After Meals f-An Answer u
the Ouestion-Reasons Why.

Before or After Meals 9-An Answer -
the Question-Reasons Why.
Midland Medical Miscellany
Medicines that are irritating should
be given after meals, when the stomach
is full, viz, the salts of copper, zinc,
iron and arsenic in large doses. Small
doses, intended to act on the stomach
terminals of the vagi, must be given
when the organ is empty. Chemical
reasons also have their influence, thus,
oxide and nitrate of silver, intended for
local act on, should appear in the
stomach during It's period of inactivity,
lest, at other times, chemical reactions
destroy the special attributes for which
these remedies are prescribed.
Iodine and the iodides further illus
trate this point Given on an empty
stomach, they promptly diffuse into the
blood, but if digestion is going on the
acids and starch form products of in-
ferior activity, and thus the purpose
which they are intended to subserve is
defeated. Substances prescribed to
have alvine action on the mut us men,
brane, or for prompt diffusion unal-
tered, are preferredly given before
meals The condition of the stomach
veins after meals is such as to lessen the
activity of diffusion of poisons and him
der their passage through the liver. 1t
follows that active medicaments in
doses near the danger-line are more
safely administered after meals.
When shall acids and alkalies be
| given, before or after meals2 First, as
to acids. When acids are prescribed
with the view to check the excessive
formation of the acids of the gastric
juice they may be given before meals
as, by the laws of osmosis, they will de-
termine the glandular flow of the aka.
line constituents of the blood. The same
reasoning would hold good if the aka.
line condition of the blood is in excess;
osmosis being favored, the acid would
reach the blood the more readily.
Second, as to alkalies. These may be
given just before meals, when the acid
forming materials in the blood diffust
into the stomach glands, and after di
gestion is completed, when the alkalie!
diffuse directly into the blood, without
interference from the contents of the
stomach An alkali taken during the
time when the reaction of the stomach
juices should be strongly acid must
necessarily hinder, if not arrest, the di-
gestive process for the time being. The
metallic substantially corrosive SUBJ
Innate, alcohol, tannin and some other
agents-impair or destroy the ferment,
or digestive power, pepsin.
Wine that is intended to act as food
is most beneficial when taken slowly
during the course of the meal. The OBJ
lection as regards the ill effect of alcohol
on pepsin is not applicable here except
to the stronger spirituous wines in large
quantities, for the ordinary medicinal
wires do not have sufficient alcoholic
strength to injure this ferment. Iron,
phosphates, cod liver oil, malt and SINH.
lar agents should, as rule, 60 with food
through the digestive process, and with
the products of digestion enter tht
| blood.

Vast Internal improvements
lDemorest's Monthly.

The people of the northwest have in
view certain gigantic projects which
would greatly advantage trade If they
were consummated. 1t is proposed that
an artificial river, 200 feet wide, shall
be constructed, which shall run from
Chicago southwest to the Illinois river.
THIS would practically unite the Missis-
sippi and Lake Michigan. Then, again,
there is talk of turning the trade of the
Canadian northwest, southwark, to the
United states, by constructing canal
to connect Lake Winnipeg with QUA Lake
system. The Red River of the North,
which forms the boundary between
Minnesota and Dakota, and which runs
north into Lake Winnipeg, is navigable
from Fargo, if not from Breckenridge.
A vessel would 60 west from Lake
Superior by the st. Louis river, cross
over the divide to the Mississippi river.
follow that river up stream $50 miles,
cross over to Red Lake river, and go
west on that to the Red river at CIR and
requiring less than fifty miles of arti-
fetal canal could be constructed. This
would make channel with six feet of
water, which would connect the Missis-
sippi with the lake system and connect
both the lake systems with Lake VIM
nipeg, and the whole of the Saskatche-
wan and Hudson Bay country. This
scheme contemplates the uniting of
three basins, that of Lake Superior, Of
the upper Mississippi, and of the Win
nipeg river and lake. 1t will cost about
$500, 900 to construct the canal, which
will be about as long as the Erie canal
in New York.

Right to the Point.

The statement of the strong Mecklen-
burg (N. CO. presbytery, meeting at Lin
colnton, says in part: "Under existing
circumstances the only possible consist
ent attitude of any member of the church
is one of uncompromising and universal
hostility to the manufacture, sale and
use as beverage of any Intoxicating
drinks.
'sAnd the presbytery hereby enjoins
the sessions of all our churches to refuse
to admit to the church or to retain as
members those who, after all due admo-
milton and expostulation, persist in vol
unfairly occupying any position which
places them in the attitude of being re-
sponsible for, aiding or encouraging the
manufacture, sale or use as beverage,
by themselves or others, of any into4i-
eating liquors"
