NEW zEALAND's PROSPERITY.

Tip is no Socialist, because he
knows a man will do more work and
better work for himself, his wife and
BARNS than for some Tom, Dick and
Harry whom he doesn't know; for
the matter of that, it will be the
same If he does know them. But Tip,
as he says in the New York Press,
isn't afraid Of facts. New Zealand's
wave of socialism has been de-
nounced over and over again as
sure breeder of immediate wreck and
ruin in that country. But New Zea-
land is thriving nightly, and the
people are prosperous and happy.
For the March 81 quarter exports in
creased nearly nine millions. On in
ternational trade New Zealand had a
balance in her favor for the quarter
of twenty-four millions. That's some
going for a small population and un-
developed country. Tips guess Is
that the natural resources Of New
Zealand are so great that before
they are drained it is easy to make
money under any circumstances.
Time was when any thick skull could
go West and make money at any.

DANGER OF eAsoLENE FUMES

Your Auto Engine Can Put You Out
of Business In Short Time.
In letter to the New York Medical
Journal DR.. T. d. w. Pinckney de-
clares that public warning should be
given in regard to danger from fumes
where gasolene is burned and cites
the case of man who was found un-
conscious and near death after being
for a short time in small room In
which an automobile engine was
running.
"Some time ago." he says, 81 was
also called to see plumber who was
rendered helpless and almost un-
conscious by fumes from his gaso-
lene torch. 1t appears that only a
small amount of the fumes is neces-
sary to cause helplessness and that
there Is little or no warning of danger

PENSIONS FOE cLEReYMeN.

All over the country, and especial
ly in the West, an effort is being
made to better the condition of cler.
gymen by increasing their salaries
and providing annuities for their old
age. Some denominations now make
more or less provision for old age
pensions, although in no case is the
sum adequate. Some clergymen have
taken out insurance policies by
which they get something in their
advanced years, but the unpleasant
fact is that there are very few clergy
men In this country who receive an
adequate salary or have more than
the slightest provision for their old
age. Is
Recent advances in the cost Of liv-
ing have borne heavily upon the
clergy, asserts the Philadelphia Bull
letin. They are compelled to make
good appearance and to live in
better style than others having the
same income. Much Is expected OF
every clergyman, and he ia seldom
paid as much as members Of the
other professions. A few supplement
their income by outside work, but
such avocations are limited because
Of popular prejudice. It certainly is
discouraging that some Of the best,
and most cultured, Of these men do
not earn on the averags more than
first class mechanic. It is unjust,
too, that they are often criticised
for not doing what there Is no pos
sibility of accomplishing on their
small salaries, which sometimes 10
depleted by personal charities.
One result is that the theological
seminaries are having a decreased
attendance. Another, which is per-
haps more serious, is the number Of
men, who are leaving the ministry
in order to make living. This is
not creditable to the Christian
church, and it seems to be due to a
lack of organization rather than to
anything else. So long as it is every
body's business to do something, no
one does 1t. When a definite and
systematic plan is devised the pay
ing the clergy and caring for their
old age, 1t Is likely that 1t will re-
ceive popular support. The practi-
cal men Of affairs among church
members need to give more attention
than they do to this question.
