He defines the new evangelism as aotuelhlag "which is united with tha fullest culture and expects the best results of the highest Biblical criticism." He thinks there been a futile tendency to regard an evangelist as separate from the work of the regular pastor and teacher. In support nf his position he cites the example 0f the cultured John Wesley. Ha says tbe churches are too often engaged in mere' "barrack-groundrill" and parochialism. He tells how his own church at Brigham was rejuvenated by thia new evangelistic spirit. canale.

The rontiuua! repetition of publishing the iiflici! vote by state is evidently only a hint to D. B. Hill that the people unanimously endorse his Intention to retire from politics. The Bureau of Labor, in a recent bulletin, effectually disposes of tha generally prevailing belief that the cost of living has in recent years advanced disproportionately to the advance la wages. In a aeries of tables it is shown that tbe general average of wages has increased since 1893 in greater percentage than the general average cost of living. lbs investigation made by the bureau embraced the cost of living in workingmen's families and the retail prices of the staple articles of food used therein. For the year 1901 figures of Income an expenditure were furnished by 3,567 families in thirty-thre- e States, industrial reprssenting the principal cm tern of the country. The average number in each family was 5.31; the average income, $837.19; the average expenditure for all purposes, $7(8.54, and for food, $328.90. The expenditure and Income differed slightly la different parts of the country. In the North Atlantic States the average Income of the families making returns was $884.83; the expenditures for all purposes, $768.54, and for food, $326.90. For the North Central Staten the figures were, respectively, $843.(0, $7(5.95 and $321.60; for the South Atlantic Slates, $762.78, $700.62 and $298.64; for the South Central States, $715.46, $690.11 and $292.68, and for tha Western 8tates, $891.92, $751.46 and $308.63. The average percentage of expenditures for all tha families investigated was as follows: Food, 42.54 per cent; clothing, 14.4 per cent; rent, 12.95 per cent; fuel, 4.19 per cent; furniture and utensils 8.42 per rent, and inaurance; 2.71 per cent.
