The Blairsville Herald tells this littIt
story:
“A preacher canto at a
man in this way: ' You editors dare not
tell the truth. If yo” did, you could
not live; your newspaper would tie
failure.’ Th“ editor replied: 1 You are
right, and the minister who will at
times and under all circumstances tell
the. whole truth about his
alive or dead, will not occupy his pul
’ . than Sunday, and then
pit more 01 m
j he will find it necessary to leave town
I >» a hurry. The press and the pulpit
«« hand in hand with whitewash brush
ami [ileasant word*, magnifying little
virtues into big ones. The pulpit, ihe
' and the giavestone are the
I pen
saint-making triumvirate. And the
] «reat thouglnful. minister while went the away editor looking turned very
to
j his work and told about the surpassing
heaiitv of the bride, while, in fact, she
i " a ‘ ! as homely a? a hedge fence.
At a prayer meeting in a small town
Saiaeii.se recently, says au
t -ii ; iu»c. an illiterate but “ood
made the following prayer: “O Lord,
Thou ktiowest that we are
i to Thee that our souls are safe from

lose hi? horse Thou knowest he can
