Ministerial Ideas.

by trying to become great preach
ers, observes the New York Observer,
not a few ministers dwindle into little
preachers, inasmuch as they make an
end Of the means, instead Of adapting
the means to the end. They work for
sermons, rather than for souls. Never
in the history Of the pulpit, perhaps,
were more carefully prepared and elab-
orately delivered discourses offered to
congregations than in our day. The
very emphasis placed on the thought
and form Of the sermon seems so to
minimize the spiritual dynamic of the
message that it sinks to the lower plane
Of an intellectual end emotional appeal
instead Of soaring to the soul-moyine
heights where spiritual forces are at
work. Such misplaced emphasis inev-
itably reacts upon the preacher, rob
bling him Of the elements OF true pulpit
power"

Ohio. on July S, $40. His family were
poor and his youth was spent much
in the manner that it is passed by most
boys, finding health and development
among the fields Of his fathers home.
Then came the first guns Of the civil
war and the poor boy on the farm In
what was then the far west was fired
with an ambition to shoulder a musket
and march with the rest of the boys in
blue. That was the goal of his young
dreams. the color which tinted his life.
So, though but a boy in his sixteenth
year, he left home, and in July. 1862.
joined the Eighty-ninth regiment OF
volunteers as a private. He was still
too young to be allowed to enter the
army and it is told that he managed
to get square with his conscience by
writing the figure rs" on the bottoms
of his boots and telling the officer, be-
fore whom he appeared, that he was
lover eighteen" which was certainly
the truth when he was standing for
examination.
Within a months time after joining
the army of the Cumberland the young
private had seen hard service and was
raised in August to the rank OF ser
geant, reaching by March, 1864. the
position of first lieutenant. After At

he was detailed for work in the signal

himself conspicuous for his bravery

liver important dispatches entrusted to
his care.
Young Foraker was with Sherman

soon came and the young man. who
was then but nearing his nineteenth
