"rhe Dispenser OF Sunshine" DR.. A
A. Willis, will give the closing lecture Of
the Y. NJ. q. A. Star Course in the Con-
gregational church on Tuesday evening
next, April 10th. aud real treat is
promised. DR.. Willis stands alone az the
successful lecturer OF two generations.
When Beecher, Phillips and Cough were
on the platform, the name of DR.. Willis
and no list of the successful lecturers Of
this day is complete without this advo-
cate of good cheer. Although the doctor
has been lecturing for nearly forty years,
he is still in full strength. He is as
young in spirit, and as vigorous in
thought and action as he has ever been.
Value Of ConsuIships.
young man." said noted Illinois
congressman in the house restaurant
at the capitol, when you get chance
to he consul for the United States
select a smoky city, one where there
are many factory chimneys. Do not
try for the fashionable capitals. Leave
them for the ambassadors. Go where
the air is murky, for there business Is
lively, and many a consignment is sent
to the United States. This means fees,
and fees mean a good income for the
consul"
In the course Of his chat the con-
gresham made the general statement
that consuls who are making the most
money from fees are the quietest, most
unassuming. accomplishing employees
Of the government. "They do not set
up claims for salary instead Of fees"
he said. "Oh, no; but like the wise
boy where the raspberries are thick
they let the world forget, so far as pos
sible, that they are on earth. Let
consular Office be changed from the fee
to the salary system, and it at once
becomes allurlng to a voracious lot Of
aspirants. Some one finds out per-
haps that the political support of this
particular consul Is weak, and then in
fuence is used, and soon there Is a
change.
zone of the most profitable consul
ships is that Of Liverpool. The salary
is $4,000, but the fees bring the emolu-
ments up to several times that amount,
and generation ago the income of the
consul at Liverpool was $4,000 year.
This has been reduced by abolishing
fees. "-Pittsburg Dispatch.

A RaDid Observer

Here is a story with a moral: A
countryman had just returned from a
journey to Paris. One Of his cronies
asked him what opinion he had formed
of the Parisians.
Delightful people," he replied, "but
frivolous, changeable and altogether
incapable Of forming an attachment
Of any duration"
"How long were you there?" asked
his friend.
"Three days."-Chicago News.
