r, .. ... . gfo ' ' 5? ' ' ' MM?????. ?, Their Salary. Editor Associate Reformed Presbyterian: Until recently I had no tboagbt of any Mexican receiving a salary from the Associate Reformed cburcb. Wbea It was ascertained that several of tbem were In tbe pay of Synod, 1 wrote to some o' itbem asking " ^ T a)da Idem wnat salary mey rwoucu. x mw wrote to Mr. Hunter, and to Dr. Pressly. f' Ooly two Mexicans replied. As tbelr letters will be read wltb Interest I copy them here as Interpreted. Tbey were written In ij" _ . Spanish: Cludad del Malz, S. L. P., Mexloo. Aug. 9,1906. Mr. Hugh Wilson, My dear Sir: Yonr kind note to band. In reply will state mat I bave not examined the last oopy of Minutes of Synod to see whether my salary is "honestly printed." Bat In whatever way it Is printed I have not the least thought that It is dishonestly printed for that would imply a dishonest act on tbe part of some one or more who bad something ; > to do with the formation of the Minutes, and lam not yet ready to accuse my brethren ol ^I.knnuii, Tliara nnnld hp mlBlaieS 1D tbe printing without there being any dishonesty. It is impossible to get tbe 'statistic and minutes collected and printed In away u satisfactory to every body. Yours most affectionately, , * J. 8. A. Hunter. ML' ' Tamplco, August IX), 19Q6. My dear sir: I supplicate you that you give me the Information, with wbat and In rV view and under what personality you ask of I ; me what salary 1 receive; I think that l bavt perfect right to ask you these questions In order that I may tbe better serve your wisnes. I am yonra attentively, Pedro Terujello. Tantoyncs, State ofVera Cruz, Aug. 18, 1906. My dear sir: 1 have yours of the 3rd inst., and tp reply will say that my salary In tbe I Associate Reformed Presbyterian cbarcb here Is forty pesce (940 00) plat" the cost df Journeys to the sexsions of tbe Presbytery and other extraordinary expenses, such as Missionary Journeys, wbloh is paid me separately from my salary, all of which is paid in Mexican I currency. Aa f am aware of notbiQK else that I oould mention that would be of interest, I beg to ~ remain. Yours, Simon S. Torres. Tbe letter of tbe Rev. Simon S. Torres, strikes me as one worthy of all commendation. He Is open and frank, with no evident v -' - Intention to wlthbold facts. There Is one thing In tbe pay of tbe preachers In Mexico wblch sbonld apply to members and delegates to Presbytery and F - - Synod In tbls country, namely: The coet**or Journeys to tbe sessions of tbe Presbytery and otber extraordinary expenses." That rale sbould apply to all alike. There . Is no equity In requiring a preacher to pay out a large per cent, of a small salary in gof lng to Presbytery or to Synod. The expense account In tbls respect sbould be equalized. And all should be treated alike, no matter " on which Bide of the Rio Grande the lndlvldY'i nal might live. i" X ttUl UiUOU lUipi COBDU ujr VUO UiOU UDI VI Rev. Simon 8. Torre*, and I folly concur with tbe8ynodor tbe Board in paying bis travel lng expenses. The same rule should apply throughout the Synod. \ ,, Very respectfully. Hugh Wilson. 'Abbeville, S.

The proportion of men, w ho won't take good advice, aud use the least gallons paint, is about one in leu among eveu ovyners of hou>es and stores and shops and barns and fences. One man in ten will buy a gold brick or green goods, if he has the money and gets a good chance, Devoe at$1.75 a gallou is better than gold ; adulterated and short-measure paints are green goods and gold bricks. Devoe saves half, more or less, of the labor and wages ol painting,* it is all paint; full strength and full measure. There is nootberauch paint within len per cent. Ten per cent of labor and paint is worth saving; and ten is the least. Tbere are scores of paiLts that throw-away half of both gallons and lab<>r on wnitiug, china-clay, ground stone, barytes, benzine, water?all they are good for is to make gallons of nothing and look like paint iu the can ; more gallons to buy and more gallous to pay tor putting ou ?gold bricks and greeu goods.
