THE dead LINE" FOR CLERGY.
MEN.

Our the illogical friends are enjoying an
animated discussion just now over the
proposition that "a minister who reaches
the age of fifty finds IL difficult to secure u
desirable charge.
This is surely worthy Of romark If ID is
true. 1t ma. ho difficult proposition to
demonstrate, though modern tendencies
may be estimated as an argument.
One pastor, who ia not fifty. by the

About lGO, OO0,0OO is the average crop,snd the
United States produces, in ordinary years
about one-fifth of the wheat grown in the
world 1t stands at the head of all countries
in respect of wheat products, France and
Russia being second and third, and India
fourth until the recent famine in that coun-
try, following the plague, reduced the avail
able supply for home consumption and pre-
vented the expectation OF wheat in large
amounts. Hungary, in which the crop is not
very good this year, is the fifth OF the wheat

Another game" nh. mighty well
You recoIlect that phrase.
How vividiy Il summons back
The scenes OF other days.
when Jimmy Walt and Roger Brown.
Beside the railroad track,
Contributed their marbles
To your capacious sack.
And how through tears that choked your
voice.
And battered on the floor.
You later told your father dear
You'd loiter nevermore;
And how (alas that ever boy
Should be so lost TO shameO
The next day found you pleading sim
For 'Just another game"
