As to Retiring Ministers.
'om the Pittsburg Chronicle-Teiegraph.

from the PittsburE Chronicle Telegraph.
The suggestion that ministers be re-
tired when they reach the age of sixty
years was very properly resented by
clergymen attending the sessions of the
Presbyterian synod of Pennsylvania
There may have been a time when the
age of sixty years was considered as the
limit to a preachers usefulness, but that
time is not now. In the Presbyterian
Church, as in other denominations some
OF the strongest ministers in mental power
and effectiveness have attained their
three-score years, and the end of their
usefulness as preachers of the gospel is
ago.
1t would be unwise to fix an arbitrary
limit for the ending OF the pulpit work
or Presbyterian or other ministers. Those
who advance such a proposition are prob
ably deludtng themselves with the notion
that the bulk of the attendants at church
services prefer youngsters in the pulpit.
Such an idea Is far from the facts, for
1t Is the man Of long experience, and the
man OF gray hairs IL not whitened locks,
to whom men and women, as a rule, look
for guidance in spiritual affairs. 1t is not
the fads and fancies Of the moment that
men and women want to hear preached
about. but they do want to hear the
OF rtpened Observation-Disclosures who have
been doing their part in the battle Of life,
and who know whereof they speak Prob
ably 1t is not far from the facts to assert

good sermon at the age Of sixty years
was never able to preach a good sermon
at any time in his career

Plague of Cigar Beetles.

FROM the Westminster Gazette.
remarkable plague of flying beetles is
reported by the medical officer. OF health
for the city to have invaded house in
upper Thames street and rendered it
practically uninhabitable. An attempt
was made to destroy the beetles by
means Of fumigation with sulphur diox-
ide. but they were so numerous that 1t
was only partially successful. The in
habitants OF the house have been driven
out and the premises closed until the
pests have been exterminated.
The adjoining warehouse contained III
bags Of turmeric, weighing about fifteen
tons. imported from Bombay. Specimens
Of the beetles were forwarded to the
natural history department of the Brit
ish Museum. where 1t was discovered that
they belonged to the species Lasioderma
serricorne, Fab, and are known in some
works as the cigar or Cigarette
beetle. owing to the injury done by them
in boring into cigars and cigarettes.

Lord Kitchener and Marriage,

From the London Daily News.
There has been a good deal Of gossip
at one time and another as to Lord Kitch-
ener's views on marriage for soldiers.
He would not have married officer on
his staff in Egypt but the fact that he is
to be best man to his friend. Gen. Sir
Archibald Hunter, seems to prove that
his objections are not insuperable. Lord
Kitchener is sixty years Of age. and the
circumstance Of his still being a bache-
lor has led lot Of people to call him
q woman hater.
He himself tells the story of an en-
counter which he once had with young
lady. 1t was in India, at q small hill
station. tennis party had been ar
ranged at which practically all the or1
GERS hoped to play. Then, to the general
CONSERVATION, Loid Kitchener ordered
parade of the entire garrison on the very
day appointed for the tennis. Have you
forgotten the tennis party?' the young
lady asked him. Not in the least" was
the grim reply. Well. them said the
girl, In extreme indignation, 81 think
you're a perfect beast"

An Iceland Farmhouse.
From the Springfield Republican.

narrow, dark. windowless corridors, wind

room. One passageway leads to a large
open mound, where fire is made to
smoke meat and fish, and incidentally the
whole house and everything in it. An
other passage leads to another kitchen
with a modern stove. The walls are all
of turf. as is the roof, with just enough
driftwood in the roof to make a frame
work to hold 1t in place. Very steep
stairs lead up to the badstofa, or sleep
ing apartment. The badstofa frequently
forms the sitting and common workroom
Of the family, especially in winter. as
well as the sleeping room OF the entire
household.
Bunks built into the wall extend around
the room and are often flied with sea-
weed or feathers. over which Is thrown

Foreign Correspondence OF The star.
MADRID. February o, 1911.
In view Of the divisions among the re-
publicans. which IL regarded as an OBJ
stacle TO their success, the party lead
ers have convoked an assembly in or
der to dissipate the existing antago-
nisms and bring about both union and a
thorough reorganization Of the republican
forces in pursuit of a uniform policy.
The first session OF this assembly took
place I'm Madrid on the anniversary Of
the proclamation Of the republic Of 1873,
and was attended by 400 members of the
party, representing forty-two provinces.
Although the government and the mon
archists do not follow with great atten-
ton the proceedings of the republicans,
they keep on their track and make the
difficulty of their task greater every day
The republicans are. nevertheless, in
creasing the number of their representa-
tives In parliament and the provincial and
municipal councils. and defend their
ideals with greater tenacity and en-
thusiasm than the monarchists defend
the monarchy.
