A Presbyterian delegate who wns
accustomed to being sent to denomina-
tioual conventions to extend fraternal
greetings was delegated to the general
conference Of the Methodist Episcopal
church.

ways an Interesting study to him to
note the different receptions accorded
him at the conventions Of the vnrious
denoruina lions.
whenever I attend a convention Of
the Episcopal church, for example"
said he. II find I can do anything I
like except preach in the pulpit. When

accorded every privilege except that
Of taking communion. And" he said,
with smile. when I appear among
the Methodists notice ! am allowed
every privilege except taking the COZ

ton to get rich enough to be respected.

counted for the intermittent weakness. The
market heavy at the start because of the
comparative weakness of the Liverpool market
