TOBACCO SALARIES,
A Custom of the American Colonies
Before the Revolution.

| A Custom of the American Colonies
Before the Revolutions.
Before the Revolution, ministers Of
the Anglican church in those American
colonies where that church was estab-
lished by law were remunerated Gin
kind" instead of in money. Maryland
gave an incumbent forty pounds of to-
bacco year for every 1.-THE payer in
the parish, whether churchman or dis
senter, white or colored These terms
were handsome enough to secure the
pick of the clerical market. In Vir-
ginia the stipends represented fixed
and unvarying quantity, by weight, Of
the manufactured leaf. These stipends
were rather beggarly in quantity. In
bad year even the "sweet scented
parishes" where the minister's salary
was calculated on a high priced and
exceptionally fragrant tobacco, yielded
| only about $500 a year. The parishion-
ers sometimes refused to induct cler-
gyman unless he would consent to take
one salary for serving two parishes In
175S, when the price Of tobacco had
greatly risen, the house of burgesses
passed law fixing the cash equivalent
of debts payable in tobacco at one
third their true value, thus wiping out
tWO-thirdS of the incomes of ministers.
Patrick Henry made his first fame In
defending this law when test case
was brought in behalf of the injured
clergymen.

stad, who resides at Tamarack, Wis,
was impaled on pitchfork and the
injuries may cost him his life. A
pitchfork was standing against the
load, the handle pointing upward.
Kolstad struck on the end of the ham
die, and the cloth of his overalls was
forced into the wound. This alone pre-
vented the handle from penetrating his
body.

Hence He Couldn't See the Poetic
Side Of Farm Life.
"Oh, yes" man in the hotel lobby
was overheard to say. "I'm a real
farmer now. My farm only costs me
about $50 per month now, so you can
see I'm getting along" Then the man
was heard to comment upon farm
labor.
It's all right to talk about the poetry
of farm life,'' he said, "but if farm life

"Yes," said the amateur farmer, ''and

you can see that the pen is made hog

Sneak Thieves In Churche.

An old sexton was discussing the
amount of stealing that is done in

said, when the church is open with
