CLERGYMAN PEDDLEs SERMONS
sie Makes a Big Profit at Novel
Syndicating Bust
ness.
Philadelphia Record.


sAn English clergyman makes a BUSH
ness of syndicating sermons" said a
drummer who had just returned from Lon
don. ~ ~ ,
.'TIow do you mean?' some one asked.
why explained the drummer, the
clergyman writes a sermon, and then he
prints about forty or fifty copies of 1t, and
he offers to one preacher in each Of forty
or fifty towns the exclusive use in his own
town of the production. The price Of the
sermon to each man is only s shillings, but
if fifteen or twenty men take it, it brings
in to the syndicate, you see, about 100
shillings or $2.25. And since the sermons
are so short that one can be done in a
morning, that is pretty good pay. The
syndicator advertises his sermons in a re-
ltgious paper. The notice reads:
g "A clergyman Of experience and mod
crate views, who distinguished himself
during his university course in divinity
and English composition, will furnish or
iginal sermons. in strict accordance with
the Church Of England, in good print al
s shillings each. Only one copy will be
given in any diocese. A specimen will be
sent If wished for. Sermons made to or

GRAVE OF ATTILA
A Recent important Archaeological Dis

- RECENT important archaeological DIS.
covery.
New York Commerce Advertiser
If the find were quite authenticated,
historians and archaeologists would have
a genuine sensation in the alleged discov-
cry Of the grave Of Attila, which was re-
ported recently. A peasant of St. Johann,
in the valley of the river brave, has come
upon the burial place of Hun, evidently
one OF some distinction and in it were
found bronze weapons bearing the name
Of Attila. OF course, this proves moth
ing in itself, but the excavation has not
been completed and more evidence may
yet be brought to light. It would be a
very remarkable trouvaille, the grave of
Attila. The very name of this terrible
chief still exercises a, certain spell over
the imagination. When, in the fifth CEN
fury, his vast hordes Of ape-faced, filthy
and ferocious Asiatics swept over Europe
al 1.-The future Of our western civilization
trenbled in the balance, and the battle
Of Chalons, where the Goths Of Theo-
doric and the the Romans Aetius rolled
back the apparently irresistible tide OF
invasion, was probably the most momen-
tous struggle that the world has wit
messed, SURPRISING even Marathon in the
perrnanence Of its results Had Attila
won, Europe would to-day be half Mon
golian, half Tartar, and the splendid
heritage Of Greece and Rome would have
been forgotten long ago.
