A DUEL BETWEEN PUNSTERS.
Tha Exchange of Compliment! That
Spiced tha Sermone of Rev. Mr.
Walkar and Rav. Mr. Read? Brothar
Moo re 'a Grim Retort.
YVbeu tbe march of pulpit oratory
?tid humor wag less advanced than
at present a number of pious parish
loners resolved to compliment their
beloved pastor with a horse. After
? great deal of so raping together they
accumulated fnnds sufficient to pur
chase a saddle, which was forthwith
dispatched to tbe minister. with an
Intimation that the home wvuld be
sent at a more convemeut season.
Week after week, however, passed
on. and no word of the minister'* nag.
This dllatorlness would never do,
thought the reverend gentleman, and
accordingly one Sunday afternoon he
took occasion to Introduce the sub- !
Ject in winding up a discourse on th<
unspeakable loveliness of charity.
"Now. my friends," said the preach
er, "if that said horse be na nipping
grass yont by at the mause In a day
or twa. I ken what I'll do"
Here the minister smote the pulpit
in a manner that made the hearts of
the congregation melt withiu them like
wax. while he. stern man. continued
his appeal to their pecuniary feelings
so long, and repented the fearful
threat. "1 ken what I'll do!" so ofteu
that one frightened hearer said:
"And what wull you do. sir?"
"Why. man." said the minister coolly.
"I'll Just well the saddle."
The Rev. Mr. Walker of Connecticut
saw his friend, tlie Rev. Mr. Read,
sitting In one of the peivs on s Sun
day morning and. leaving the pulpit
weut to Itead and urged hltn to preach
for hint. Rend begged off, as he was
providentially detained in town over
the Sabbath and hnd no "preparation"
with hiui. Hut Walker was pressing,
and at length his friend yielded to his
importunity ami entered the pulpit.
But he had no text, and after some re
flection pitched a|K?n Joh I. 7, "Then
Satan answered the Lord and said.
From going to and fro In the earth
aud from walking up and down In it."
From this passage he drew the doc
trine and announced It boldly, that the
devil was a great Walker. He run*
the changes ?n the name of his friend
till the people signified their notice by
a general smile.
Walker took the pulpit in the after
noon and returned his friend's compli
ments by taklug for his text Matthew
xi, 7, "A reed shaken with the wind."
"The doctrine of the text," he said, "la
the Instability of Reads." On thla
theme he discovered till Read wished
that he had never ventured his wit In
the pulpit at the expense of his friend
Walker.
In the south of .Now Jersey some
years ago there traveled over some of 1
the hardest counties n Rood, faithful. |
hard working trother named James
Moore He was devoted to the Itlner- |
ancy and a true loyal Methodist, plain, i
pointed and sharp in all his preaching |
and exhortations. He bad been labor
ing a year on one of bis circuits, and.
before leaving for his new field, be
gave bis people his farewell sermon.
At tbe close be said:
"My dear brethren, this Is my last
address to you. I am going from you.
and you may never hear the voice of
James Moore again."
"Amen:" came loudly from the seat
before him.
lie looked at the man with a little
surprise; but. thinking It was a mis
take, went on. "My days on earth
will soon be numliered. I am an old
man and you may not only never hear
the voice of James Moore, but never
see his face again."
"Amen!" was shouted from the same
seat, more vigorously than before.
There wns no mistaking the design
now. The preacher looked at tbe man.
He knew him to l>e a hard, grinding
man. stingy and merciless to the poor,
ne continued with his address: "May
tbe Ix>rd bless all those of yon who
have done your duty, who have hon
ored him with your substance, who
have been kind to the poor, and." paus
ing and looking the Intruder straight
In the eye and pointing to him with
his finger, "may his curse rest on
those who have cheated tbe Lord and
ground the poor under their heels!
Say amen to that, brother!"
He was not Interrupted again.
It was the Rev. Rowland Hill's habit
to ride to church In an old family
carriage, a practice too aristocratic. In
the Judgment of one of his flock, who
determined to rebuke It. It was cus
tomary In h's chapel for notes to be
sent to tbe pulpit, requesting prayers
for various objects, and one Sabbath
Hill was proceeding with the reading
of these requests as usual when he
found himself In the midst of one to
the following purport:
"Prayers are requested for the Rev.
Mr. Hill, that he may be more bumble
and. like bis divine Master, who. In
stead of riding In a carriage, was con
tent to be borne on an ass."
Having read the notice, be lifted
the spectacles to his forehead and.
looking around the house, observed
that it was quite true be had been
guilty of the fault alleged, but if the
writer would step around to the vestry
door after service, saddled and
bridled, he would have no objection to
ride home, after his Master's example,
on the back of an ass.? George Ban

Trade At Home
IT is a hard thing to'convince tome people, who have acquired the
mail order habit, that it is to their advantage to trade at home. The
grren fields far away appeal to them, ao they send their money out of
town for something that is no better than can be found on the local
merchant's shelves. The money is thus gone where they, n T any one
of the community, will ever see it again, and where it can ?? nobody
good but the person who has it and he is hundreds or the r ands of
miles away.
THE MAIL ORDER PEOPLE
are not the only offenders who are blind to the interests ofth e commu
nity. The merchants are just as bad. Many of them send away for
their printing, while at the same time argue against'mail order business.
