If there ever is any trouble In the
congregation about the music, and if
the minister ever worries himself, it
is admitted at once that the congre
gation and the minister are alone to
blame, writes Ian Maclaren in Ladies’
Home Journal. But there are other
difficulties, and they may be men
tioned in a spirit of becoming humil
ity. For one thing, the organist is an
artist, and every artist has a nature
of special refinement which cannot
bear the* rough-and-tumble ordinary
methods of life. With a man of
common day von deal in a practical,
straight-forward and even brutal
fashion, arguing with him, complain
ing to him, and putting him right
>\hen he is wrong. But no man must
handle precious porcelain in such fash
ion, or 4fie artist will be instantly
wounded and will resign and carry his
pathetic story to every quarter, for,
iis ,a. rul'e, the organist thinks that he
is lifted above criticism and public
opinion. It is impossible to teach
him anything: it ir an insult, to sup
pose that anything could be better
than the music he provides.
Women M2a«lonnrlof Marry Chinese,
The following remarks of the Ostasi
atische Lloyd about Protestant lady
rnissioners in the far east are worth
quoting: “It seems to become daily
more the fashion for European and
American ladies to fulfill their mis
sionary ^vocation by marrying China
men. Scarce half a year ago a Swedish
lady missionary set the unfortunate
example of marrying a Chinese coolie,
thus seriouslyjnjuring her missionary .
society, and, in general, compromis
ing the respect in which missionaries
are held. There is now a case in Can
ton of a lady belonging to an Amer
ican mission. Miss Halverson, marrv
ng her former cook. There is a great
sensation about it in missionary cir
cles, and it is really difficult to under
stand how a lady, wdio goes to China
n order to help Christianize, can, after
so short a time, do more harm to it
lhan long years of labor will make
jood.”—JNT. Y* Sun.
