The Messenger and In telligencer is very proud of Union couuty and of many Union county folks, and the above is not intend ed as a fling by any means.

The gospel is the word of ctci aa! life, and it is also the greatest civil iter. In its propagalirn rersora' presence, and the living tor-c, will never be suerseded; and wluever backs up a minister by moral inlld ence, or by financial aid helps the gospel- Hod is the author of the gospel ministry, and be is abundantly able to maintain it; but he hath "ordain ed that they which preach the gos pel shall live of the gospel." Thus he grants this privilege to his people. He lias taught bis claim upon wealth, and given specific directions as to the terms on which he will accept it Every offering must be cheerfully made out of one's own holdings, and the motive must be love. AH taint ed money, like tainted men, is reject ed. Ill gotten gain, and offerings made with wrong motives are Satan's asset, and he can use it as effectively lying in the Lord's treasury ss if it were deposited in the vaults of his own bank. Change of location does not affect ownership. Eliminate tainted men from the ministry and from the churches, and tainted money from the treasury, and this vexed problem would be greatly simplified. Indeed, if conditions were normal if each member of the kingdom were aglow with love and zeal, a servant of every other mem ber, with "holiness unto the Iiord" inscribed upon him and upon his possessions, upon bis capabilities, his time and bis opportunities there would be no problem. As in Nature, Ood never sends mouths until after he has sent meat; so in Urace he would never call, equip and send out a minister to rep resent him until he had prepared somebody to hear him, and support him. But they are not normal. Kven Christ though heralded for ages was not received by all who professed to be "waiting for the consolation of Israel," and many of his agents have been persecuted, some starved, and some even eaten by cannibals. Every minister is a gift of God to the kingdom. He is a sinner, but a sinner saved. He is a man encompas sed with infirmity; but be has the scriptural qualifications, and is en dowed with the requisite natural and spiritual gifts. Gifts and spheres of labor differ, but each one is faithful to him that called him. Now there are many ways of wor shipping God in the spirit, but preaching, which is peculiar to the true religion, is the highest form of worship. 1 be Holy Spirit is back of all real preaching. Holy men of old spake as they were moved by nun. He was the inspiration of John, then of Jesus, then of Peter and the rest. It may be sulhciently accurate to say that a man can prepare and deliver an oration, or give a lecture, or teach the letter of the liiblo; but it would be grossly incorrect to say that a man can prepare and preach a ser mon. God is the prime factor in every sermon, lie is with every man who ran preach, every time be can preach. John A. Broad us said that a man who could not fail, could not preach. It would have been more to the point if be had said, whenever a preacher loses sight of the fact that nil sutlicicncy is of God, he falls down flat. Now some might think that if God once lays his hands upon a man he will uniformly sustain him, but not so. The man's own head may be turned, he may cease to pray, or the congregation may lose tho humble, teachable spirit An illustration; A man aided a Union county minister in a meeting. Day after day great throngs of seri ous people assembled at a stand to hear the word, the Holy bpini seemed to hover over the scene. It was a time of refreshing. Soon after ward tbe pastor of a church called on tbe man ana saia: My people want to hear you!" and he accepted an invitation. Notice, first, the pas tor failed to invite the I-ord; second, the man failed to consult him. Later the man besought the Iord to go with him, but he refused to gratify the idle curiosity of his enemies. When the time came a feeling of ut ter desolation settled down upon the man. He had to face a large and critical audience. It was spiritually an arctic scene. Ice in the pulpit, and icicles in the pews. When the obstructions were re- A Sensation.

A that be could give all of his time to the work of tbe ministry. II. A minister cannot know too much or love God and bis fellowmen too ardently, lid ought to be "mighty in the scriptures." He ought to be able to see (kd in ever) thing, and also able so to depict him that others Can see him.snd heouglitto be cour ageous before men. No man of noble and virtuous pa rentage, who was mothered in child hood and youth and "kept by the power of God" from falling, is too tine an instrument for the ministry; but, while God can use men of the finest personality and of the highest attainments with telling effect, he can use men of humbler parts, and sometimes even sick men, as he says: "My strength is made perfect in weakness." Examples First: A young man worn down by long continued, hard, dry study stood up before a great audience. The people judged him by his appearance; but a robust friend tGod) stood veiled beside bim. His mind was clear, his body under con trol, and bis soul was pulsating with a mighty theme. The people were electrified. The most influential wo man in the congregation voiced the astonishment of all when at her home she said: "You did not look like you could preach so!" Second: Once he was taken sick on his way to an appointment When the congregation heard that he was sick, and saw his face bleeched with pain, their expectations perished; but he soon lost sight of his alliiction snd all were upon the mountain heights. They were amazed at the outcome. Truly, "the excellency is of God." Third: One Sunday he put up at a brother's bouse near the preaching place, and told him that a hard week's work and a long ride bad completely used bim up; but the mo ment he faced the audience every trace of weariness vanished. Finally he dismissed the people and walked back down to the brother's house; but they would not leave. It was as if the galea of pean had been thrown wide open to them that day. Some time afterward the brother came rushing down to his house and said: "I thought you told me that you were tired!" Fourth: Once he preached on the second coming of our Lord in a large church crowded with earnest listen ers. He did not realize what havoc was being wrought until after the congregation was dismissed. When he saw that many had been over powered, and that some were help lessfar beyond the shouting stage he stood in the fine pulpit and gazed upon them and wept After ward he was conducting a meeting in this church and spent a night with a prominent member. While in conversation he made a statement of some facts, and the brother re plied: "I do not see how you can preach a single sermon under the circumstances!" III. All who come under the spell of a real sermon, are laid under everlast ing obligations to its divine author, and to the earthen vessel through whom he speaks. A noble, christian woman, having come under such a spell, longed for another like experi ence and went to hear many preach ers, so called; but finally gave up in despair. She reported to the writer in these words: "Brother , they just can't preach!" Now there are"diversities of gifts," and we would not do an injustice to a single faithful minister, but un doubtedly there are men in the min istry some of them very plausible and popular who have none of the spirit of Christ. These have an eye to the main chance. They cater to the popular taste. They are adepts at wire pulling. They engineer their own salaries through. In lifting public collection they can apply the screws, and in gleaning the last farth ing in private, they can make a poor mouth. With them, collections have the right of way. They do not give their people anything higher to think about A real minister of Jesus Christ is not primarily a money monger. It is well that public collections be taken quietly before the preaching begins, but the preacher s mind should not moved, God accompanied this man be disturbed by it, for he is then as la your baby thin, weak, fretful ? Make baby. him a Svolt'jr Emulsion Scott's Emulsion is Cod Liver Oil and Hypophosphitcs prepared so that it is easily digested by little folks. Consequently tho baby that it fed on Scott's Emulsion is a sturdy, rosy cheeked little fellow full cf health and vigor. ALL DRUCCISTSi CO-'. AND ST.OO. ni in in ter is siuiplv one of the brethren, a : servant, humble, handy, etltciciit, : an un ler shepherd in sympathy with j the fltck, guiding them along paths of peace into the "green pastures"! and "beside the still waters" of grace; and a failhf til "overseer" presiding over Christ's camp of instruction, training his people for service and then leading thi-ui forth to battle. Butwhatof those aJvcnturers? The sooner christians rise in righteous indiguation and hurl overboard this whole tribe and all of their allies in the pew, the sooner will the lid be lifted aud the kingdom go forward with leaps and bounds. Then would christians work and pray and give, and preachers would live and pray and preach, and the world would hear and multitudes would "fly as a cloud and as doves to their window," (see Isa. HO: 8) and fall prostrate at the King's feet. IV. While loitering dangerously near the ragged edge of the precipice, a youth heard the voice of the Good Shepherd, and entered his fold. His heart resionded to the appeal of his cross, the appeal of love, infinite and eternal. Whn he believed that he was called into the ministry, he went to work to get ready. He steadfastly set himself against engaging in any other calling, fearing lest should he put off his harness it might not fit whom he would again gird it on. Once he was living in the country preaching to farmers, and thought he had enough to do, but one of the brethren came to him and said: "The peoplo say that you have got to go to work, that they have to work and that you are no better than they are, and that if you do not go to work they will not go to hear you preach. Reverses came and later he entered a store ss clerk. While here a min ister wrote to him urging him to hold on to the clerkship, and preach. Another minister sought a private interview in order to warn him against trusting to the promises of the people for support; but he saw that working fifteen hours a day five days in a week and seventeen on Sat urday, and then preaching on sun- day, was beyond his strength. So, after several months of doublo duty he resigned. Then a committee of brethren waited on him and said: "We cannot support yon; you must supplement your salary by farming." This was a bitter pill, lie know very little about farming, and was not ac customed to farm work. But he rent ed a farm and went at it. Now the attention of the people turned from the faithful preaching to the farm ing of an ignoramus with nothing with which to faim. Ihey ridiculed him as being green enough for the cows to eat. but a nome uroiner came to his rescue in this fashion "Farming is not his business! preach ing is his business, and he can preach!" Now, they did not look upon preaching as an accomplishment. As proof, the writer cites the following statement made to him by a leading member of the church: "A preacher does not deserve much pay, for it does net cost him much to preach. Why. I cou'd prepare a sermon any morning while my wife is getting breakfast: Nevertheless, no man can work at any secular calling and preach; but many men can preach and. incidentally, work some, like Paul. They gradually eased off, and let him make all of his salary by farm ing; and when forced by dire neces sity to turn bis attention to it, they said he had quit the ministry, and refused to hear him because he worked. A brother, in palliation, said "But when you go to see them they will feed you!" And they would feast him, say once a week, and lot him "starve along" between "checks;" but it was often more to gratify their vanity than to benefit the preacher. Two Examples: a contrast rirst He took breakfast with a poor fami ly. The man showed that be bad the instincts of a gentleman; the woman was endowed with queenly grace and was an expert in baking cold water corn bread; the children were "like olive plants." The plain, un varnished meal consisted solely of corn bread, and coffee without sugar or cream. It was the best thing they could set before their guest. That scene is a precious memory. Those people did not belong to that numer ous class who would rather let i preacher starve to death than dis grace themselves by giving him simply a piece of bread in the name of a disciple and because he belongs to Christ Second: One night a big talking church member invited him to his hmse. His presence put bis silly wife all in a flutter. She sat up and worked all night in order to make a brilliant display. The house was small, and the minister was kept awake by the movements of the poor woman as she flitted hither and thither about her idiotic tasks, If David refused to drink the pure water of the well of Bethlehem, be cause it represented the blood of the men who bought it (see II. bam. 23 15-17), could a preacher consent to eat a meal prepared at such a price? There were misunderstandings. 1. 1,, ..! i....u. i i,.ii .i .i i ;n U'J ' . I.. ' . " ik,. a .-..' 1 1 ... a "... never be satislied until our church culls you'" Second: S-m after this, one of the best known and most liberal relig ious men iu the county saiJ to him: "I do not see the use in giving so much money tovdecate more preach ers, when we will not use those we have." About this time a rival candidate for a pxt.rate, trying to down him with faint praise, said: "Oh, yes, I have heard him preach sermons that John A. Broadus could not beat, but." Now is rivalry among breth ren in the ministry possible? I'er hsps not, but a spirit of rivalry may be rile in a heart innocent ol re ligion. A preacher is drawn out and de veloped by a generous, an apprecia tive and a responsive audience; but a cold, suspicious and fault finding audience can freeze out a preacher and then nag him to death. What frantic efforts hypocrites do make to fence themselves off from God's gra cious purposes! At this juncture a wealthy friend urged him to turn loose, and go into business with him, but he declined in these words: "My field is in the hearts of men. When his own turned him down, a minister of another creed thought that, perhaps, he might be induced to go with him. So he visited him and mado him a very liberal propo sition. He found the man engaged in manual lulxir, and accosted him thus: "You are not an ox! Come, now!" etc. But he was not in the market; he did not believe with his friend, and he would not be unfaith ful to tbe truth as he saw it. year afterward he attended a large religious gathering in another State, and was splinted to preach the 11 o clock sermon on Sunday. Many things contributed to the oc casion. 1 he natural sun was uncut, and that greater sun, the Son of Righteousness, was lavish with his beams. A death like stillness reign etl in that sea of eager upturned faces, and tears silently chased each other down many cheeks. Heaven came down to greet the souls of med It was a grand and awful time. One of the ministers present said to him next day: "You puts feather in your hat yesterday! But what was a plume in an old slouched hat, hnn there was not a penny in the Docket! A famous school teacher called on him soon afterward and asked this ineslion: "Why are you not regular ly engaged in the work of the minis try? It's not the preaching, for 1 have heard you preach some as good sermons as 1 ever heard anybody preach." And he could not answer him. He was shut up to the preach ing of the simple gospel, which, how ever, involves "the mystery of God" see Uov. 10:7), and there seemed to be no demand for that. Natural men like to have their sins condoned, and they like to be flattered, but they do not like to stand in the shadow of the judgment, to be swept from their feet, and brought in startling fashion face to face with the eternal verities of the spirit world. Furthermore, the ministry is a business, and no business can be conducted without expeiwe.and no man was found will ing to invest anything in it. id Baking Powder Tfce enly Baling Powder made vitb Royal Grape Cream of Tartar made from grapes Insures healthful and delicious food for every nome every day Safepunb jonr food agaiest aluajupbosputc of lime who doubts his resourcefulness?

Plain Talks on Fertilizers Improving and Increasing Tobacco Crops The preacher thought that the peo- finish, lo set off his house? If so, No soil is rich enough in all the foods the tobacco plant needs to produce it at its best. Many tobacco soils, how ever, contain natural ele ments, rich in certain valu able plant foods, but lack ing in others. And just as a dead or dying soil must Ix: fed with a complete plant food, so these partially fed soils need specially rcparcd bxxl to supply vhat they lack, and balance the unequal fertilization supplied by nature. When these special nourishing elements are added to the soil, crops multiply enor mously; quality improves, and profits are doubled and trebled.
