"But ho is nn excellent preacher, nud as tho church is well satisfied with him, tho Conferenco will, doubtless, return him to us for another year." "No, Sarah, they shall not return him. I wlll'tnlco euro that tho brethren learn what a viper they aro cherishing In their bosoms. It is fortunate that tho next Conference-Ms to ho held here in our own plnco." "Let mo beg of you, husband, not to bo hasty In this. Our minister, Uro. Eulrbauks, appears to bo really a worthy and pious man, and as tho church is well pleased with him, why not allow the matter to rest ns it Is? I really can not iieiicvoium to lie so uau it man its you fear him to bo." "Can a man bo a Freemason nnd not boa guilty, perjured wretch?

Mr. Graham muted fur a moment. "Judgo V inters," ho said, at length, "I accept your proposition.
