AppIied Christianity.

The late Archdeacon Madden of Liv-
erpool used to relate how on one occa-
sion he separated two women, one a
Roman Catholic and one a Protestant,
who were fighting in the street. After
ward he asked the latter, whom he
knew, how she, as processing Chris
tian, could justify her behavior, to
which she replied:
"Well. sir, l was only obeying you.
I have often heard you say Fight the
good fight!' That other woman came
into my house and she saw picture
of you on the mantlepiece. That's no
priest said she. Nor no parson,
neither! He's only an old quack.' Do
you think could stand that, sir? No!
Touch not the Lords anointedr
says, and l ups with my fists and I hits
her "-London Post.
