At a recent quarterly confer
ence held in Waynesboro the Rev.
Dr. W. W. Evans, Methodist
Episcopal superintendent of the
llarrisburg district, brought out
the fact that the eight months of
the present conference year had
already produced more deaths
among ministers than any full
year for a long while past. The
increase in mor'ahty among the
ministers and the scarcity of
ministerial timber cause double
agitation in Methodist minds.
The average of deaths has been
one a month.

They Were His Subscribers.
The Orbisonia Dispatch tells
this story, but did not give the
name of the newspaper man.
Despatch says a preacher recent
ly grew fervent in exhorting to
honest living and near the close
ot the sermon he said, "Let every
person in the house who is pay
ing his or her debts stand up."
Instantly every man and woman
in the house, save one, was stand
ng. After they were j eacefully
seated, the dominie asked," Now
let those stand up who are not
paying their debts, "and a long
lean man of sixty or more years,
clothed in a seedy suit of the past
decade, slowly assumed a perpen
dicular position m his pew. 1 low
is it my friend," inquired the
minister in austere tone, "that
you are the only ona of this in
telligent congregation who does
not meet his obligations?" The
lanky individual meekly answer
ed, "I run a newspaper and the
bretbern here who just stood up
are my subscribers and" the
minister broke in abruptly with,
"We will close with the benedic
tion."
