Coughing In Lieu Of Oratory.

A singular fashion which prevailed
among the preachers of Cromwell's
time was that of coughing or hemming
in the middle of sentence in order
to attract the attention of the con-
gregation. The necessity of continually
attracting the attention of the listeners
could not have argued we'll for the
brilliance of the sermons. Some au-
thorities say that the preachers cough
ed merely as an ornament to speech.
At any rate. when the sermons we're
printed, as many of them were, the
coughs and hens were always indicat-
ed on the margin Of the page. - St.
Louis Republic.
