The Animated Warming-Pan,

In Ireland warming. pan is called q
friar. Not many years ago an unsophis-
ticated girl took service 10 hotel. Poor
thing she had never heard of warming
pan in her life, though she regularly con-
fessed herself to friar once year.
1t happened that on cold aud drizzly
night priest took lodgings at the inn
He had travelled far, and being weary, re-
tired at an early hour. Soon after the
mistress of the house called tho servrnt
girl:
DEITY, put the friar in No. g."
Up went Betty to the poor priest.
"How-what % osked he, alarmed at
being disturbed.
"9our reverence must 60 up to No.
g."
There was no help for it, and the priest
arose, donned dressipg-gown and went
into No. 6.
In about fifteen minutes the mistress
called Betty:
"Put the friar into No. f."
Betty said something about disturbing
his reverence, which the mistress did not
understand. She told the girl in sharp
voice to do as she was directed, and she
would always do right Up went i''eLty,
aud the unhappy priest, despite his angry
protestations was obliged to turn out Of
No. 6 and go into No. 4. But little
time elapsed ere the girl was told to put
the friar into'No. s. But he was to en-
joy no peace there. Betty was again Or
dered to put the friar into No. 2, and
with tears in her eyes she obeyed. In
about an hour the lady concluded to 20 to

to her room. Wondering what it all
meant, Betty reused the priest and told
him to 60 to No. IL. The monk crossed
himself, counted his beads and went into
No. IL. 1t so happened that the hus-
band of the laudlady was troubled with the
green-eyed monster. Going to the bed

Patagonian Burial Rites,

The death of a native is attended with
peculiar ceremonies. The flesh having
been as much as possible stripped from
the bones, they are hung on high, upon
canes or twigs woven together, to dry and
whiten with the sun and rain. One of
the most distinguished women is chosen
to perform the disgusting Office Of making
the skeleton; and, during the process,
the Indians, covered with long nantes of
skins, and their faces blackened by SCOT,
walk around the tent, with long poles or
lances in their hands, singing in mourn
full tone of voice, and striking the ground,
to frighten away the Valiokus, or evil
beings. The horses of the dead are kill.
ed, that he may have withal to ride upon
in the Alhue Mapa, or "oountry Of the
dead" -t.'2
In about year, the bones are packed
together in hide, and placed upon one
Of the decessed's favorite horses, kept
alive for that purpose, and in this way
the natives bear the relics, sometimes to q
very great distance, until they arrive at
the proper burialplace, where the ances-
tors of the dead man are lying. The
bones are arranged in their proper posi-
tons, and fastened by strings. The skel.
eton is then placed with Others, in
square pit, clothed with the best robes,
and adorned with beads, feathers, 60.
The arms of the deceased are buried
with him, and around the grave are
ranged several dead horses, raised on
their feet and supported by sticks. Some
times cairn of stones is raised over the
grave.

Origin of the Sisters of Charity.

The origin of that charitable assscia.
ton of worldwide fame, styled .:The
Sisters of Charity" whose signal services
during the war to the sick, wounded, and
dying soldiers, in hospitals aud on battle
fields, as we'll as their constant ministra-
tons to the sick and suffering poor
throughout the land, in times Of peace,
have won for them the profoundest re-
spect of all classes and ranks of society, is
thus described in religious journal
About the year 1926, in a town of
France, called Chantillno, there existed
an humble rural pastor, Vincent de Paul,
who has since justly deserved the title of
benefactor of his race. 1t happened that
during his ministry serious case of dis.
tress came under his notice. The good
man recommended from the pulpit, to the
charity of his congregation, a poor family
in the neighborhood. At the conclusion
of divine service, moved by his appeals,
members went forth to assist the distress
ed ones. Some brought bread, others
meat, others again vegetables. After
vespers, or evening service, the pastor
himself proceeded to the home of poverty;
and on his way met crowd of his pa
rishoners returning from the scene of
misery. When he arrived at the abode
of distress, "behold," said he, eau abun-
dant supply of everything for this poor
family. But there is no order or judg-
ment displayed, in all this profusion Of
charity. The most of these provisions will
spoil, and the poor people, the object of
this benevolence, will be as badly off as
ever. The happy thought occurred to
him to form charitable society, whose
members should be speedily trained to
manage the interests of the poor in a ju-
dicious, economical way. Pious ladies
of the first families in the land soon offer
ed their valuable services, and went to
work according to the rule drawn by this
man of God, and approved by the spirit
ual authorities. This was the foundation
Of that charitable association, whose noble
services have been SO well known to histo-
ry for more than two hundred years.

CONVICTED BY A CODA rather curl.
Gus instance Of conviction by evidence from
the mouth of cod occurred in Scrabster
Roads the other day. The captain had
had some fresh herrings for breakfast, and
some of those that were left were thrown
overheard by the cook, who was either too
lazy or LOO careless to put them away as
he was told to do. The behring's being
subsequently asked for, as the captain
wished to fish for cod, the cook declared
thar he knew nothing at all about them,
but that no was certain they had not
been thrown overheard. No sooner were
the words out of his mouth than the cap
tain, who had felt pull at his line, drew
in great bouncing fellow of cod, and
the moment the cod fell on deck one Of the
identical behring's in dispute fell out Of his
mouth at the storyteller's feet, thus con-
victing him by the mouth Of a witness
whose stomach, when taken out of his
native element, was more tender than the
cooks conscience.- John o. Groat Jour-

ness as printer at Venice, he came in
possession Of little negro boy. This
boy was known over the city as "the lit
tie black devil" who assisted the mystic
rious bibliofactor and some of the most
ignorant believed bin to be mono other
than the embodiment of Satan, who help
ed Aldus in the prosecution of his profes.
sion. One day, Nautilus, desiring to
dispel this strange hallucination BY pub
Lofty, displayed the young Gimp" to the
poorer classes. Upon this occasion he
made this short but characteristic speech:

posture Of the printers deva! All those

An Alpine GrOtto.

The following appears in Ga''gndnt :
"On the flank OF the Maritime Alps,
near the village Of Castiglione, has long
been kaown an opening in the face of
the rock, giving entrance TO vast
grotto TO approach this there was
no road or path, and yet it showed
evident traces that the hand of man
had modified the work of nature.
Some short time since three English
men determined to make nm attempt
at exploring it, and, taking advantage
of the assures and projections of the
rock, one of them reached the opening,
and, lowering cord assisted the two
others to mount. In the middle OF
the grotto they found large circular
hole, and one Of them attaching a rope
to himself descended At the depth
of about forty yards he landed in an
other large cave, but, as in the former
case, with the circular aperture in the
centre Determined to continue his
exploring, he was obliged to get one
OF his friends to descend to the second
cave to lower him to the third, which
being done, he found at depth of
about sixty yards a repetition of the
circumstances, but was prevented from
descending any further rs the cord was
not long enough, and they then re-
turned in the same manner TO their
companion in the first grotto This
cavern is supposed to have served as a
resting place TO the hordes of Sara
Gems who in remote ages rayaged the
Mediterranean coast.
