A Paying Investment.

Dr. Josiah Strong, speaking at the Presbyterian Union, was saying sharp things about the people who give a little to the Lord expecting much in return. He quoted what he called “these ignoble lines:” Whatever, Lord, we give to Thee, Return a thousand fold. “A pawnbroker,” cried Dr. Strong, “with a heart of blue flint would be only too glad to lend on the same terms.’’—New York Times.
