How a Shrevd Preacher Touched His
Congregation and Extracted
"the Root of EVIL"

The Reverend Erastus Gabriel Jackson
had been reading a newspaper three months
old. In it he learned for the first time that
great board Of foreign missions was
somehow in doubt to the propriety Of
accepting 10000 in which they scented the
faint of kerosene-and other things.
The Reverend Erastus was shrewd
mortal. and the sole representative of Chris
tianity in his midst" Money was always
hard to get in his parish-it had always
been taken and mo questions asked"
At the close OF the weekly prayer meeting
he arose to make an important announce
ment.
"Brev'ern an sistern," he began, "Ah'd

had a talk with one Of his deacons, ana TO

preached long and vigorously the follow

he dwelt more heavily on the desire Of the

is taking every precantion necessary
ia keep the fever out but it is acting
with Judgment in the matter. 1here
is no necessity for "bottlins the city

decided te effectively handle this mat
ter without putting the lid on. Guards
meet trains five miles from the city,
and if those on the trains can produce
satisfactory proof that they are not
from infected districts they will be al
lowed Ia get off the train and stop
in the city. The board proposes to
Ike no chances but at the same time
if is no. going TO be guilty of so fool
sh a thing as to cut off all communi-
cation with the outside world except

is being made sufficiently effective.

There is a plant in Jamaica called

impossible to kill it or any portion
of if When a leaf is cut off and
hung up by a string it sends out
white, thread-like roots, gathers
moisture from the air and begins to
grow new leaves. Even when pressed
end packed away in botanist's
herbarium it has been known to out
grow the leaves of the book in which
it was placed The only way to kill
it is by the heat of hot iron or of
boiling water.
