and drove them up the steep mountain
side. Miss Stone told the boys they
were taking them away from the road

not speak of capture and it is almost
unheard of for brigands to take wo-
men.
After going an hours distance the
brigands stopped and demanded their
money. They took what gold the cap

to Miss Stone. We want you, and

The lot of the clergy in the Church

wretched that even younger sons have
given up the career which for so many
years was looked upon IS their chief
1t may easily be understood
that this calling has ceased to appeal
to them when the fact is known that
out of about 1000 benetices in the
church, more than 1000 are worth less
than $3.50 a year and that nearly all
of them are decreasing in value. About
500 beneflces are worth only $500 a
year and less than $3.50 annually is
the return from 800 livings which have
been recently described as more nearly
'~'starvings" to the u~nfortunates who
are assigned to them. In the diocese
CT Peterborough there are sixty-one
livings that are worth no more than
1926 a year., and this is not yet the
worst as there are in. Newcastle bene-
fees that are valued at only SIPS a
year. The wives of clergymen in
these parishes are of course unable to
employ servants and all the drudgs ry
of homework falls on their shoulders.
The luxury of meat is denied to them
except on alternate days and their
children-of whom the number is
nearly always in inverse ratio to the
amount of the living-are prepared by
education in the elementary schools, or
by the teaching their parents can give
them at odd times for their descent to
a lower social sphere. These clergy
men, as a rule come from good country
families. Their wives are from the j,
same class and are in few cases fitted
by their training for a life of drudgery
n hard work. The actual return
for these livings is frequently much
less than the figures quoted here since
their value is dependent on the price
OF corn and this has declined until it
many cases what used to be a living
worth $500 is now in reality not worth
