as to the best means Of finding 4

OF the very common saying,
"Wherc the shoe pinches," Plutarch
relates the story of Roman being
divorced from his wife. This per-
son being highly blamed by his
friends, who demanded, "Was she
not chaste? Was she not %fair?"-
Holding out his shoe, he asked them
whether It was not new aud well
made; "yet, added he, "none Of you
can tell where it pinchcs me-"
The saving, "When ut Rome do
as the Romans do" is said to have
arisen in this wise: st. Augustine
was in the habit of dining upon Sat
urday as on Sunday, but being puz-
zled by the different practices then
prevailing (for they had then begun
to fast at Rome on Saturday, he
consulted st. Ambrose on the sub
lject. Now, at Milan, they did not
fast on Saturday. but the answer Of
the Milan Saint was, "When l am
here l do not fast on Saturday; when
at Rome | do fast on Saturday"
The Spectator says That Tobias
Hobson was the first man in Eng
land to let hackney horses. When
a man came for a horse he was taken
into the stable where there was q
great choice but he obliged him to
take the horse which stood next to
the stable door, so that every cua-

became a proverb when what ought
to be your selection was forced upon
you, to say, "Hobson's choice"
SETTING UP IN LrrE.-Rev. John

The other is to begin q little nearer

CATCHING MUsKRArs. 1t may have
puzzled many of our readers TO tell how
mnskrats, beavers, and other animals,
are able to stay SO long under water,
apparently without breathing, especially
in winter. The way they manage Is,
they take in n good breath at starting,
and then remain under water as long as
possible Then they rise up 30 the ice
and breath out the air IN their lungs,
which remains in q bubble against the
lower part of the ice. The water near
the ice is highly charged with oxygen,
which il readily imparts 10 the ar
breathed out. After time, this air il
taken back in the lungs, and the animal
again goes under the water, repeating
TINS process from time 20 time In this
way, they can travel almost any distance,
and live almost any length OF time undes
the ice. The hunter sometimes takes
advantage OF this habit Of the mushra'
in the following manner: When the
marshes and ponds where the nuskrat
abounds are first frozen over. and the
ice is thin and clear, on striking into
their houses with his hatchet, for the
purpose Of setting his trap, he frequently
sees a whole family plunge into the water
and swim away under the ice. Follow
ing one for some distance, he sees him
come mp TO recover his breath, IN the
manner above described After the ami.
nal has breathed against the ice, aud
before he has time 10 take his bubble in
again, the hunter strikes with his hatch
ct directly over him, and drives him away
from his breath. In this case he browns
in swimming n few rods. and the hunter,
cutting q hole in the ice, takes him out.
Mink, otter, and beaver travel under the
ice in the same way, and hunters hav,
frequently told of taking otter in the
manner described

Why Soup is Wholesome.

The London Food Jurnai says I hys.
iologically. soup has great value for those
who hurry to and from their meals, as il
allows an interval of comparative rest 10
the fainting stomach before the more
substantial beef and mutton is attacked
rest before solid food being as important
as rest after it. Leta hungry and weary
merchant or lawyer rush in nedias res
plunge boldly into roast beef, and what
is the result ? The defeat is often as pre-
cipitate as was the attack. When the
body is weary the stomach must be iden-
tilted with it, and cannot therefore stand

pound weight of beef. But If small
plnteful of light soup be gently insinuated
into the system, nourishment viii soon be
introduced. and strength viii follow to
receive more substantial material.
