SUNDAY AT THE CHURCHES
Presbyterian Church.
Robert S. Boyd, Pastor.


Sunday closes the campaign in "The
Progressive Program" for 1892,
with the Every Member Canvass in
the local church. The Sermon at the
morning service will be on "The OBJ
legation of Divine Favor" the eve
ming service, "Paul's Prayer for the
Church"
The budget of the local church is
$4,000 divided equally between the
Current expenses of the church and
All Benevolences. Eighteen laymen,
arranged into nine teams, will visit
the entire membership next Sunday
afternoon between two and five
o'clock bringing message of good
will from the church into every home
and soliciting liberal pledge for the
work. The Progressive Program,
which has to do with the Benevolent
contributions of the Church, is not an
additional benevolent responsibility
but only an effort to get the 375,00O
members of the Southern Presby-
terrain Church to give as God has
prospered them, and will prosper them
in an adequate support of His Church.
We have no right to say that no
other appeal will be made the Church
this year for we do not know what
unexpected need might befall us, but
we can assure you that if the goal of
$2400 is pledged and paid this church
will NOT be solicited for those same
causes another year.
Please remain at home till the men
call on you. Meet them with smile
for "God loveth a cheerful giver,"
and demand that they leave you with
smile because of your liberal pledge.
We are not alone in this great work.
Methodists, Baptists, Lutherans, Con-
gregationalists and Disciples are
shoulder to shoulder with us as we
attempt to lead the church into the
blessings of Christian Stewardship.
The Synod Of Missouri has goal
of $i65, 900 this year. .

me recently.
MY friend is a nose-and-thoat
specialist. and one day a little girl
was brought to his clenic for a small
operation on her nose. For some
reason he could not give the little
thing any anaesthetic. so he took i
tifty-cent piece out of his pocket and
put it into her hand.

The Wrong Hymn.

\ story comes from the City Of
Churches TO the effect that the pastor
of one of the most conservative r.
ligious organizations in that borough
some time ago shattered the tradition
of generations by inviting noted
evangelist TO conduct week of re,
viyal services in his church.
At every service the church was
packed to oyerfiowing. and the NUM-
Der of those who focked to the
mouners' bench every evening testi-
fed to the enthusiasm of the congre-
CATION. At the concluding service the
pastor announced that a collection
would be taken for the gifted brother
who had just preached from his pull.
pit for the last time. He had no doubt
that it would be generous one.
Next day when the offering was
counted the pastor was amazed and
disappointed to find that il amounted
to only about half the sum he thought
would be forthcoming.
In his distress he went to Deacon
Perkins and asked him ii he had any
theory to account for the meagerness
of the collection The deacon smiled
knowingly and replied: DO You ~
call the name OF the ohertory hymn
you selected >"
And then the situation dawned up-
on the good man. He had announced
from the pulpit; while the collec-
tiou is being taken the choir will
lead us in singing that grand Oh
-hymn. Never Give Up, Never Give

Chicago Grain and Provisions.

Chicago. May 24.-Prospects of a ma =
terial increase Of the crop movement next
week did good deal today to send the
corn market downgrade. Prices closed
heavy, sc to 2%c net lower, with July
at s1.e2b to s1.ss and September at
I.56 to $1.561s. Oats lost l to IN
cents. In provisions the outcome was UNI
changed to IS cents Off
Most Of the increase in arrivals of
corn was expected from Iowa next week
There was persistent gossip also that
Argentine supplies would be brought to
Chicago and other western cities. Bear
ish sentiment meanwhile was further In
tensified by excellent weather conditions
and by advices that the government was
reselling cereal goods which had been
bought for export. but which would not
now be shipped. Week end adjustment
of trades led to no important reaction.
Assertions that exports were unburden-
ing depressed the oats market, DESPITE
advices that such assertions were merely
evidence of tightening Of the lines to
compel the signing of the peace treaty.
Provisions fell with grain and as a
result Of word that the last relief ship
OF the food administration was being
loaded and that the stock of packing
house products in this country was still
the largest ever known.
