 A movement to exclude liquor deal- CTS from church membership has been started in Louisville, Ky, by Rev. T. T. Eaton, D. D., pastor of one of the wealthiest churches in that city.

 The famous Benedictine monks at Beatty, Pa, have discontinued brewing beer for the market. For forty years they have brewed this beer and ped- dled it among the saloons all over the western part of Pennsylvania. The growing temperance sentiment among Catholics is responsible, though it is said they will still brew beer for their private use.

SHORT SERMONS.


 There is nothing that Universalism afnrms more positively than the in- evltable and impartial punishment of slnners.-Rev. I. P. Coddington Uni Yersalist, Rochester, N. Y.
 Character is that which makes a noble life; no life is perfect in which tod Is not the center of it's being the ruling motive of it's character.-Rev. ". II, Carwardine, Methodist Chicago III.
 That definition of God which de- serdbes Him as pure Spirit carries in It the danger that we may lose our selves in speculative contemplation Rev. Dr. Behrends. Congregationalist, ..osAlyn, N. Y.
 arrch that fails to obtain a
 .ng and impress to noble purposes 2e people about it is a failure and ought to be reformed or destroyed Rev. ]. A. B. Wilson, Methodist, San Francisco, Cal.
 It would be glorious to have one Christian federation. Perhaps in the days that are to come such Christian federation will be made possible. God speed the day.-Rev. Dr. Eaton, Uni Versalist, New York city.
 Our ideas of property and economics are burdens imposed on us by the dead. Whitman wanted to live with animals, because mot one of them was afflicted with the mania of own ing things. ."-Rev. B. Fay Mills, Evangelist, Boston, Mass.
 The church will hold Christ as the sovereign authority. All power Is given unto Him. Authority is not in reason, not in the church, not in the Bible, but in the imperial Christ pr. c. H. Combs, Independent, Kan sas City, Mo.
 It is something like blasphemy tc ask God to give to the church the Holy Spirit, which He has already given once and forever. What we want is anointed eyes to see the gift.-Rev. F. J. Van Horn, Boston, Mass.
 If we do not keep our souls filled With Gods spirit the devil can enter in and dwell there. We are not con- cerned merely with overcoming evil habits, but in building up active vir- tues.-Rev. Dr. Christian, Episcopa- Han, New York City.
 This consciousness of and hunger for immortality are the strongest possible evidences of the fact. The Bible teaches it. The Book of Job is a poem of immortality. The Psalms throt with the hope. The prophets are spokesmen of the other world.-Rev J. F. Carson, Presbyterian, Brooklyn N. Y.
 Detraction injures the detraetol himself, injures the listener, perhaps awakens in it's victim-for sooner ol later he will hear of it-sentiments oi hatred and revenge that will cause him to detract in turn, or drive him ever to the crime of murder.-Rev. Father DuBoise, R. C., San Francisco, Gal

CARRYING MONEY.

It is amusing to notice the various methods in which men of different na- tionalities carry their worldly wealth. The Englishman carries his change loose in his right hand trousers pocket gold, silver, and copper all mixed up together. He pulls a handful of the mixture out of his pocket in a large, opulent way and selects the coins he has need of.
 The American carries his "wad of bills" in a peculiar, long, narrow pock- etbook, in which the greenbacks lie fat; the Frenchman makes use of a leather purse with no distinguishing characteristics, while the German uses one gayly embroidered in silks by the fair hands of some Lottchen or Nina.
 The half-civilized capitalist from some torrid South American city car ries his dollars in belt, with cun- ningly devised pockets to baff1e the gentlemen with the light fingers. Some of these belts are very expensive.
 The Italian of the poorer classes ties up his little fortune in gayly colored handkerchief secured with many knots, which he secrets in some mysterious manner about his clothes. A similar course has charms for the Spaniard; while the lower class Rus- sian exhibits a preference for his boots or the lining of his clothes as a hid- ing place for his savings.

EARNED BY Docrons

 The large personal estate, som. ] 875.000, left by the late Sir W@I Jenner of London, makes it inta,s..' M < to recall the big fortunes left by s5 fashionable and successful medi.s recent times in England. Dr. Thomas Armitage left oye. \ 000,000, but the bulk of t13s was tainly not professional earAines. Paul of Camberwell amassed ol $500,000, but he owned one, if not t lucrative private lunatic asylums The next largest personality ta W. Jenner's was that of Sir wm,l Gull. He died in 1890, leaving slsI no behind him. This, of coursa s the result of professional fees. a l.J proportion of which for a long ss. of years had been excellentIy inyeql Then comes the late Sir Anal Clark, though there is a large fana off in the amount, S1,034, ,465. Sir drew sank good round sum in ! estate. Another big fortune was Oscar Clayton's, about s735, ,OOO aadl another of quite recent date. Sir BI1 ard Quain's, about S585,000
 Sir William Bowman, the oculist Prescott Hewett, Sir George Paget Sir Risdon Bennett left substar liaI] ] tunes, but all were well under $500,000 mark. There hasS6een gpe] lation as to what incomNg some these successful doctors earned: $lsd or $20,000 year is a big income t5l professional man, but at one time William Gull's professional fees nf certainly averaged $1,000 a week, itn more, while Sir Andrew Clarks ta ings at the zenith of his career nr have amounted to an average of oy $1,506 for every six working dal There are prizes in the medical pI fessien, without a doubt.
