N. Subscribe for the NEWS CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR. Prayer Meeting Topic For the Week Beginning Oct, 10, 1909. By REV. S.

I. DOYLE. can we help our xvil, 8-13. The life of the pastor of a church today is one of so many and complex duties that he needs all the help that the church can give him and is especially encouraged when the young people come to his assistance, show their appreciation of his labors and lend a hand to make them more effective. What helps one pastor may only annoy another.

Therefore, before Endeavorers can help their pastors, they must study their dispositions and environments, so that they can exercise judgment in all that they do. Pastors are human. They have hearts. They have feelings. They need help and encouragement as well as those to whom they try, by the grace of God, to administer these same things.

Some general principles may here be noted. A realization of the tremendous labors and burdens that rest upon a pastor's shoulders is an absolutely necessary requirement in the helping of pastors. Many treat their work lightly. They look upon the ministry as one of eastest professions. Their idea is that about all he has to do is to talk twice on the Sabbath day and that no preparation is required for that.

The facts are that the members of no other profession do so much as ministers and none are so poorly paid. But people say, "The minister should not think of money." Christ never said so. He declared that the "worker is worthy of his meat." Moreover, if because of the insignificance of his salary in comparison to his real needs and, as is usual, its irregular payment the minister comes to owe a few debts the cry goes up that he is no good because he does not pay his debts-and often some of those to whom he is indebted owe pew rent to the church of which he is the pastor, and the church cannot pay him because they do not pay it. Ministers are men. They should, like other men, be paid what they are worth.

They should be paid promptly. When that day comes few will ever be in debt or have to worry over making "both ends meet." The church and the world, as well as the minister, will reap the results, for he will then be able to give to them the service of a clear, unworried mind, and the results will soon be apparent. Christian Endeavorers, when older and richer, should bear these facts in mind. Pay your pastors a living salary. Pay it promptly, as you agree to do in ing him, and you will help him and help your church and the world at large.

If some people with false estimates of a minister's duties could go with one in his work for one week they would certainly have a change of mind -two sermons, which require hours preparation, to be preached to the same people Sabbath after Sabbath for years, in addition to at least one midweek lecture, the sick to be visited, the dying to be comforted, the dead to be buried, the bereaved to be comforted after the death of loved ones. He goes with the physician, continues with the undertaker and still continues his visiting after both are done. Many other burdens of sorrow rest upon him through the adversities and trials his people. The Protestant church has no confessional, but Protestant ministers nevertheless have many secret burdens and trials intrusted to them. And to whom should those in trouble go but to their pastor? Who are more sympathetic? Who more willing to help in time of need? The world, too, makes many demands upon the minister.

No class of men do more beyond their bounds of labor than the Christian minister. A man may shun a church and a pastor during his days of health, but when dying he wants one. He may have never darkened a church door, but when he dies his family wants a minister at the funeral service, and he goes. No one says "He is not a member of my church" and declines. It is a part of his larger ministry which in Christ he owes to all men.

There are no complaints meant by these statements. Such things are the duties of the minister, and he does them for Christ's sake and the love of his work. The last profession on earth a young man choose is the ministry unless his one desire is to perform these duties. Nor does the professional element enter into his work. Ministers become deeply attached to their people and enter with sincere sympathy into all their troubles and sorrows.

And how may pastors be helped in all the burdens of pulpit and pastoral labors? Realize that he, too, needs comfort and encouragement, and thereby help him. Give him your cordial friendship. Do not hold aloof from him because he is your pastor, The ministry is a lonely profession. He is much in public and much in company, and yet his heart is lonely. Many hold aloof from him and when he is about are constantly on the "anxious seat." Treat him as you would any other Christian man and you will help him.

The largest Irrigation plant in the world will be included in the government's plan to reclaim 180.000 acres of land in the Rio Grande valley.

Rainwater is the best to use in motorboat and automobile radiators. That from other sources too often leaves an objectionable deposit. One person can use a two man saw by stiffening it with a bow made of a split sapling or other wood that will counteract its tendency to buckle. The Igorrote provinces of the Philippines bave been combined and will be managed by one governor and subgovernors. Bontoc will be the capital.

A young woman in Vienna whose batpin injured a man's eye and caused him to lose the sight of it offered as compensation to marry him. The offer was accepted. San Diego, has a wonderful clock, with twenty dials, which tell simultaneously the time in all parts of the world; also the days of the week and the date and month.

The great telescope of the Paris exposition of 1900, which was built at a cost of $150.000, is now offered for sale by the receiver of the exposition at about one-tenth of its cost. Its housrequires a building 130 feet long. The first fossilized peacock found on this continent has been unearthed near Los Angeles, Cal. Scientific men say that this proves that peafowl existed in America before its discovery by Columbus, something not known before. Western Europe is beginning to ship freight of the far east over the Siberian railway which formerly went by water via Hamburg exclusively.

An increase of passenger traffic to Japan and China by way of Vladivostok is also noticeable. Hitherto skulls of prehistoric men have been said to resemble those of great apes, but now comes a distinguished French anthropologist and declares that one which has recently been discovered is almost an exact replica of that of Bismarck. Hamburg is the principal importing center in Germany for grain for both domestic consumption and for transshipment to Denmark, Sweden and Norway.

The shield, which weighs but five pounds, is made of a composition of wax and felt, in which the striking bullets are said to stick without piereing. In the center of the shield is an opening just large enough to pass the ride muzzle through.

That Edison is as fertile as ever in suggestions appears in his proposal that the East river be filled in and its waters provided with a new channel dug across Long Island at a point farther east. Good authorities pronounce the scheme by no means chimerical. The real estate value of the present site of the river would be almost beyond calculation. In connection with the present activity with regard to the reduction of fatalities in coal mines it is of interest to compare the following averages of fatal accidents per thousand employees: Anthracite miners, Pennsylvania. 3.18; miscellaneous steel and iron workers.

Pennsylvania, 4.30; nut and bolt workers, Pennsylvania, 5.40; railway employees, United States, 2.50. Credit is being given to a Berkeley (Cal.) landscape gardener for having developed the white strawberry, but a missionary in Persia says that Persia has had white strawberries for so long that no one knows when they were developed. He says that any strawberry grown by irrigation in a semitropical climate will be white. The Persians have tried to grow the red variety. but after one or two years the berries turn white.

The long alfalfa roots reach the moisture in the soil even in the driest summer.

On different days about 500 varieties of cold dishes are served from the cold buffet. Miniature watches are all the rage in France. Some women carry at least two of them. A fashionable damsel in Paris recently simultaneously carried a watch suspended from her belt, a smaller one on her purse, a still smaller one on the third finger of her gloved hand and one as the head of a hatpin. Preparations are being made at Harpers Ferry to move the old John Brown fort from the Murphy farm, a mile or two from the town, to the campus at Storer college.
