The TCO Friends

My deg and l are faithful friends;
We read and play together;
We tramp across the hills and fields,
When it is pleasant weather.
And when from school with eager
haste
come along the street,
He hurries on with bounding step,
My glad return to greet.
Then how he frisks along the road,
And jumps up in my facel
Ard if l let him steal kiss.
I'm sure it's no disgrace.
On, had he but the gift of speech
But for single day,
How dearly should l love to hear
The funny things he'd sayl
And what be knows. and thinks. and
feels
Is written in his eye;
My faithful dog cannot deceive.
And never told a lie.
Yet though ne cannot say a word
AS human beings can,
He knows and thinks as much as
Or any other man.
Come here, good fellow, while | read
What other dogs can do;
And IT 1 live when you have gone,
III write your history too.

cnmulate, and this will effectually
dispose of the contention of so many
that even with the best systems OF
filtration the water in rivers is con-
taminated by dumping city's waste
into it." From other statements the
Inference may be draw that the gov
eminent expects to take steps to COM
pell all cities to construct plants
which will properly dispose of their
wastes. 1t is possible now to destroy
this waste and from it to extract an
oil which may be utilized for many
purposes. The cost for such a plant
is not great, and the operation is In
expensive.

Newest of plays appealing to all
classes is "Ishmael which will be
seen in this city on next Tuesday at
the Keokuk opera house. AS the title
at once suggests, it is from Mrs. E.

novel, Or rather from two of them, as
the author has drawn upon the com
panion story 'Self Raised for a por-
ton of her material
'Ishmael' was written years age
and really created sensation as il
was generally believed to portray pas
sages in the life of one of America
most famous public men. Thousands
cried over it and talked about it un
til it's fame spread across the seas
the book being translated into several
foreign tongues.
Miss Grace Hayward, who success
fully dramatized "Graustark" and "St

careful study and then fashioned 9
play which is rich in melodramatic in

appealing in general tone. The hum

his rise from obscurity to brilliant
position by sheer force of intellect
and the story of the unwise Claude
who loved him, but who was dazzled

Ministers Of the United States Are
Paid Better Than Those Of
Any Other Country
in the World.
INTERESTING
DATA
Value Of Church Property in the Unit
ed States, Totals to Over
One Billion
Dollars.

Ministers of religion are paid more
in the United States than in any
other country, according to bulletin
just issued by the census bureau. The
bulletin Is part of the first report
of the bureau on the statistics of re-
ligious bodies, upon data gathered in
1906. 1t shows 164,S30 Christian and
1,084 Jewish ministers in the United
States and states that their. total
number Is increasing at the rate Of
nearly 1000 yearly. Their average
salary is 1868 year, and there was
paid to them in 1906 a total of $685.
667,587. The Baptist and the Metho-
dist denominations have more than
half the total number of ministers in
the country, corresponding to their
large number Of church bodies, for
the Methodists have sos per cent and
the Baptists 25.9 per cent of the total
OF organizations.
In cities having 100000 population
or more the average salaries paid
ministers are: Presbyterian. $3.50:
Congregational, $193S; Reformed,
sl,93S; Baptist $1,793; Protestant
Episcopal, $1.S73; Jewish, SLAB; Ro-
man Catholic, 1854 It is to be consid.
cred, of course, In comparing these
figures that some of the denomina-
ton provide parsonages and give 9TH
er forms OF support to their ministers
while many do not
In smaller cities and in the coun-
try ministers get small pay. Baptists
In the south average only 1884, and
colored Baptists in the south only
1927. The denominations that are
strong in the cities seem to be strong
also in the country. Unitarians in
the smaller places receive the highest
average salaries of all, s1,653; Prot
$l,87B to sl,517. The Roman Catho
lies are paid larger average salary
In the country than in the large cities
1924 against 1854.
Christian Science readers receive
only 1924 each for their services, on
the average, and 1858 in cities Of
100000 or more population. This is
explained as due to the fact that the
readers, as a rule, have other occu
| pations and are expected to earn
their own support
The total amount of money paid tc
y fpisters, by denominations, is great
II for the Methodists, though the
Ferage salary in that denomination
d not high. Methodist ministers re
lceived s16,150 900 in 1906. : he figures
for other denominations are as fol
lows: Baptists, s1o,323. 600; Presby
terians. s7,61o,0OO; Roman Catholics
s6,779,000; Protestant Episcopalians
S4,SS7 900; Congregationalists, 81,
$4,000; Reformed Church, $1,6S2,000;
Jews. 1901, 00o Not all the bodies re
ported, and on this account it is es
timated that the figures should be in
creased by about one-fifth for 1906
Another fifth should be added fol
the present year. 1t is estimated thai
In 1910 there will be paid in salaries
