DRAWING AN AUDIENCE.

The pastor of a church at Miilsiile,
n. j., about week ago, hit upon a
somewhat novel though sensational
method of attracting people to his
church. He announced that he would
tell who was the most wicked man in
the town, and as a result an unusually
large number focked to the church,
expecting to hear the pastor pick out
somebody and by name score him I'M
mercifully. Instead, however, he re-
ferred in general terms to the drunk
ard, the profane man and the gambler,
but said that the most wicked man of
them all was "he who knoweth his
duty and doeth it not"
