No More Blanket, No More Hallelujah.

Mashoupa, in Kattirland, was once the residence of a missionary, but the church is now abandoned and falling into ruins, because when asked to repair the edifice at their own expense the men of Mashoupa waxed wroth and replied irreverently that God riilght repair his own house; and one old man who received a blanket for his reward for attending divine service is reported to have remarked, when the dole was stopped: “No more blanket, no more hallelujah.” I fehrme the men of Mashoupa are wedded to heathendom.—Fortnightly Review.
