THE WORK OF THE MINISTRY.

in no wise should relieve the churches
OF their very plain duty to make sub
stantial provision for their ministry.
Preachers must be clothed-in fact,
no church wants its minister to ap-
pear In shabby attire. Preachers must
provide for their families; their grow
ing boys and girls have jusr as big
men. and they deserve to be as we'll
kept. as well-eIsd, as well housed and
as we'll educated az those OF The lay
men. In order that these necessities
shall be provided. adequate salaries
should be paid, and paid promptly.
when due.
The great Head OF the Church, who
suffered all the buffets of poverty on
earth, who even had to work a miracle
to get money to pay his taxes. has
said that "the laborer Is worthy OF
his hire" Our churches cannot afford
to he niggardly with their ministers,
and no church which Is spiritually
alive will find it difficult TO raise any
reasonable amount
Gods work calls for too high an
ideal OF service to be hitched to the
doIlar-mark. but Gods workmen
should be freed from the eTnbarrass-
ment Of an empty purse. Which re-
minds us of the sainted Leroy NJ: Lee,
of ever blessed memory. who used to
say that ne could preach better with
dollar In his pocket--and sometimes
| borrowed the dollar for the purpose.
