"The Ministry ns a Profession:” "The Protestant churches are alarm ed over the dwindling number of stu dents In their seminaries, and the In creased difficulty of securing worthy recruits for the ministry. The min j tutor's lot, If possible, is to he made j easier, no less for practical conslder | atlons—even if tl cse are not always j confessed than for ethical ones. “Wo pay the workman $3 a day— or u little more to build the church; ] nn d wo pay the clergyman $2 a day —or a little less- to preach in It. "To Increase the salaries of rnlnls |tern to u point where they can stip jport and educate their families In de cency and have a small margin over for the necessity of books and the luxury of a reserve, to a point where they sre beyond the gnawing cares nnd nervous drain of poverty, Is a t rying need of the Protestant churches j today. “The demand for young, active njiji- I tutors ts at present greater than t.ho supply, and n youth of marked ability Is practically certain of a comfortable living almost as soon as he steps out of his divinity school. It 1s the young minister wno Is in demand today, es pecially In the large city churches, flu* ministers themselves say that their 'dead line' is reached at the fifti eth year Present conditions have now Im posed more than poverty; because of the Increased cost of living, they have come to Impose privation, and intel lectual, 1f not sometimes almost physi cal, starvation. On the other hand, to ask men to come Into the mlntetry, to tempt them to come, uecause of the financial re wards, Is to debase Christianity and to Insult It* Pounder. Fortunately, there soenv» to be no Immediate dan ger of this particular Insult." THE VANISHED BOY.

Monday morning, at 10 o’clock, the September term of the Superior Court of Richmond County will convene with Judge H. C. Hammond presid ing, and adjournment will be ordered : until the third Monday In October.

Union Savings Bank REGISTERED MAIL WILL COST MORE Increase is Due To Deficit in Registry Branch of the Postoffice Depart ment. Orders have been received at the ' local Postoffice from Postmaster Gen eral Hitchcock, in which announce ment is made that after November 1, the registration fee will be advanced from eight cents to ten cents, in ad dition to which the proper amount of postage must be attached to each piece of registered matter. Along with this announcement comes one stating that the indemnity claimed for the | loss of a piece of registered matter to j be raised from $25 to SSO. To the peo ple of this vicinity the increase will not be understood, but in despatches from Washington it is learned that the reason is that the Postoffice De partment defici* is caused to a con siderable extent in loss by the Regis try branch of the service, The in crease in the maximum of indemnity will be appreciated by the citizens of the country, as it is the cause of sending more money than formerly at practically the same rate. What the effect if this increase in the regis tration fee will be throughout the country will be watched with inter est. In another communication from Washington it is learned that a com mission has been appointed from among the prominent Postoffice of ficials to look over the Money Order system and recommend ctunges where necessary. Under the admin istration of Pastmaster General Hitch cock every branch of the Postal ser vice will be re-organized on a much more business like basis than for merly existing.

We have often heard of snakes eat ing eggs—hen eggs—but never knew until recently, when we learned the sec ret from an eyewitness. It was In Kow an county, where the blacksnake swal lowed four hen eggs. He found the nest under an apple tree, and, although the eggs were larger around than the snake's head, his neck, or even his body, he had no trouble In getting them pushed down the narrow- passage. You could see them go without any trou ble and when the four eggs were in the snake you could see the four knots on the snake. But how did he digest them? Well, that was an easy question for Mr. "lacksnake. He or:n*fc» ttp the body ol the apple tree, wrapped himself around It. and tightened himself until pop, pop, pop—and all the eggs were broken.
