A man will go to church and put in a nickel and sav: "Ilere goes the widow's mite," Whoever saw a widow in duck breechers. 1 There is more in example than in precept.

How They Are Starved by Their Congregations. A Methodist newspaper lias as jterlaincd that the average sal-j j arv of preachers ofthat donoiuin.i- j tiun in I he soul li is truly $ 173.35 a ; vear. In this ease the cenl column ; usuallv omitted in stating salaries; . it] professional in m, is really iin-j i port ant, for 35 cents have a deal i of work to perlorn in a family compelled Jo subsist, or die on so meager compensation as that. The $473.35 a year gives about $1.30 j a day. The average preacher's j - ' A I I family consists 01 nve pes sons- Allowing the munificent sum oi #1 a day lor tent, clothing, fuel, doctor bill and the numberless incidentals, jve find ?>0 cents reinaindipg on the table.This allows 10 (tents 'a meal for breakfast, dinner and j supper: or in other words two cent ahead for father, mother and ehildren. It will be seen that no part of the preacher's income goes for a servant hire. The wife .of the clergyman, who i? expected to laKe a leaning pari 1 u religious and social work, and to entertain many callers, must do the housework, including washing and ironing. The Methodist paper that figured out the average salary o 1 $473 35 has some pathetic coin j ments on the thread bare coat 01 a clergyman thus situated and the "actual misery" it represents. The wonder that so many men can keep up even a semi-respectable appearance on such an allowance. If it be urged that thousands of working men support their families on less than that, we submit that the fact "has nothing to do with the case." Preachers cannot adopt the habits of tiie working man- iney niusi incur many expenses that are nor in the account of wage earners engaged in man ual labor, Those lor w h o m preachers work are presumed to believe that such work is ol vital imp r'ance. They expect good sermons and a faithful performance of pastoral duties. And yet I hey do not pay for half of wha' theyexpecl. If the era of prosperity do^s not bring an increase in the compensation of those ministers it will miss one of the fields in which it will be greatly needed.?Washington Post.
