the demands OF our growing work. May
we hope for q contribution as generous as
possible, not only from every church, but
also from every individual who desires 10
be personally identified with this broad
Christian work? Our main instrumental
reliance for awakening and deepening
missionary interest Is upon pastors, sus-
tanned by their churches.
HOW THE MONEY Is SPENT.
Upon ar averagne, about 92 per cent OF
contributions and legacies given TO the
treasury of the American board Is divided
among the several missions, according TO
the extent aud necessity OF the work most
economically adjusted. About per cent.
is expended In the important department
of communicating missionary Intelligence
to our constituency at home, through the
distribution of the monthly Herald and
other missionary documents, and through
the work of three faithful field and dis
trict secretaries, stationed respectively at
Boston. at New York and at Chicago. All
other expense including the grave nnan-
cial administration annually of over
three quarters Of million OF dollars,
Guiding, also, large correspondence with
missionaries abroad and with candidates
for missionary service, pastors, and
churches at home, Is so far provided r
by the considerate foresight of generous
friends, from the income of funds be-
slowed for this specific purpose, that It
costs the contributors to our treasury but
about 4 per cent.

One of our French residents, who re-
Gently erected house on the "Pike,n is
deeply perplexed by finding himself the
unwilling landlord of a tenant who not
only refused to vacate the tenement, but
who pays no rent and did not agree to
when he moved in. When the house was
built the owner bad ii arranged for two
tenements, one of which he occupied with
his family, all of whom are employed in
the mill. AS there was no one at home
during the greater part of the day the
meals were irregular and hastily cooked,
and after time'the head of the family
W ~
domestic affairs were conducted and cast
about him for remedy. Among his ac-
uuaintances were man and his wife,
and as the wife did not work in the mill
Ii was arranged that the couple sh ould
move into the vacant tenement and the
man do the chores around the place and
his wife the cooking in payment OF the
rent. 1t was good scheme but 1t did
not work, for the menu was IL possible
worse and more erratic than before, and
the chores were left undoDe. After stand
ing IL for a time one of the family left I he
mill and took charge OF the household
work, and the tenants were notified to
leave. They paid no attention to the
warning, and local officer was called in,
who sternly ordered them to vacate at
once, but they paid no more attention to
the majesty OF the law than to the owner
of the house and in spite of repeated
warningsand threats they are still occupy
ing the tenement while the owner spends
bis time in ordering them out and en-
deavoring to sell the property IL neces-
sary to do so in order to get them of his
hands.

Strange beginning of a Friendship.

I remember the anecdote my stepfa-
ther, Count d'Aure, who entered La
Fleche before the regulation age CT s,
used to tell me- 1t was the first time he
had left bis mother, and he was some
what bewildered by the roughness of
his comrades, who affected the airs OF
old troopers. To make sure that he was
not milksop, one of them, a veteran
Of u, made him lay his hand fat on
the ground, stepped On it and crushed
one of his fingers. This tormentos was
the future General paraguay d'Hilliers.
The victim, who nearly tainted, bore
it bravely, however. "And this was the
beginning" my stepfather used to add
half century later, when showing his
deformed finger, "of a friendship that
lasted all our lives" This happened
shortly after the first empire, when
Roman virtues were emulated, but one
must not infer from this isolated fact
that stoicism fourishes vigorously IN
the French educational system. tn.

TaMpinc Fishes.

It is not generally known that fish
yawn. The writer saw a turbot yawn
twice and cod once, the latter being
one of the widest yawns accomplished
BY any animal Of it's size. The yawn Of
turbot, being something not common
II seen, deserves particular description.
A turbot's mouth is twisted on one
side, rather as if it had belonged to a
round fish which some one had accident
ally trod on and squashed half fat The
yawn begins at the lips, which opens as
if to suck in water. Then the jaws be-
come distended, and it is seen that this
is going to be real, genuine subma-
rine fsh's yawn. But-the yawn goes on,
works through the back of its head, dis
tending the plates Of the skull and
comes out at the gills, which open, show
the red inside, are inflated for mo-
ment, and then, with kind Of stretch
ing shives Of its back, the fish dattens
ont again, until, if unusually bored, it
relieves itself by another yawn.-Pear-

The Pace Of the Camel.

AS matter Of fact, and in spite Of
its having carried Moham1Ded in four
leaps from Jerusalem to Mecca, seven
miles an hour is the camel's limit, nor
can it maintain this rate over two hours.
It's usual speed is Eve miles an hour
"a slow pace, beyond which it is dan
gerous to urge il, lest, as Asiatics say,
it might break its heart and die literally
on the spot.
When camel is pressed beyond this
speed, and is spent, it kneels down, and
not all the wolves in Asia will make it
bulge again. The camel remaios where
it kneels, and where it kneels it dies.
a fire under its nose is useless. Times
