the rock was the skeleton of a man and
near the skeleton the rusty blade of a
bowie-knife, the handle of which was
rotten with age. The cavern walls can.

Odd Dinner CustO ms in Sweden.

The Swedes have queer way of To-
comotion at their meals. They often
fit about like flies, from one table to
another, and sometimes seem to turn
the menu topsy-turvy when they order
a repast. 1t is no rare thing to see
them begin with cheese and biscuit,
next proceed to ham and salad, with q
slice of meat to follow, and then sud-
denly start up in the middle of their
dinner to swallow, while they walk
about, plateful of pea soup. A habit
which they have of beginning each re-
past with what they call &c smorgos,"
not merely leads to much untidiness at
meal-time, but makes them seem con-
tented to live on bits and scraps. The
smorgos consists of little dishes, such
as slices of smoked reindeer, and
caviar, and sardines, with pickles,
cheese, and other whets provocative of
thirst. These are fished out with a
fork of general utility, and laid on
thumb pieces of rye cake, thickly
smeared with butter, which serve by
way of plate. Then they are bitten
into, regardless of the fragments which
may fall on other dainties (for your
true smorgos eater seldom sits to his
repast, and they are finally washed
down with a glass or two of spirits
which stand handy by their side. Such
a prelude to meal is not merely un-
cleanly, but must vitiate the palate, and
injure the digestion. Indeed, 1 feel
convinced that were the smorgosbord
abolished, not merely would the cook
cry in Sweden soon improve, but very
many of the people would be gradually
weaned from their weakness for strong
drink.-AU the Year Round.

RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL.

Harvard Scientific School is re-
ported to have twenty-five instructors
and only sixteen students.
The Rev. jeremiah Phillips, the
oldest foreign missionary of the Free
will Baptist Church, is dead. He la
bored many years in India, and died in
this country at an advanced age.
The Samoan Islands have been en-
tirely Christianized. Out of popula-
ton of about 40, 900 some 81, 900 or sew
en-eighths, are connected with Chris
tan churches. The London Missionary
Society reports 26,493, the Wesleyans
4,794, the Catholics, 1858, and the Nor
mons 1876.
The Lutheran almanacs, of which
there are many, differ greatly in the
statistics they give of the Lutheran
Church in this country. Thus the
"Church Almanac" reports 3,015 min
listers, 1924 congregations and S24, 1926
members; the Lutheran Almanac re-
ports 1902 ministers, 1888 churches
and 694, 1926 communicates; the :" Luz
therische Kaleadar" reports 3,0S7 min
listers, 1876 congregations and $50, 1876
communicates. Other almanacs are
yet to be heard from.
The average salary of the regular
teachers in Boston is 1915. Their av-
erage length of service is between elev-
en- and twelve years, but there are many
instances of very long terms. A lady
teacher has recently resigned, after
service in the city of over forty-one
years. Thirteen teachers are now en-
ployed who have taught over thirty
years; 101 have taught between twenty
and thirty years, and 260 between ten
and twenty years. For such faithful
teachers as these the proposed pension
is certainly a deserved benefit.-N Y.

There are fresh reports of intoler-
ance in Bohemia. An American physi-
clan learns that the persecution of Prot
estant is even worse in Prague than in
Vienna. In one of the rooms of the
American Consul at Prague an English
service has been started, and was final
~ given in German to benefit some
Austrians who attended; but when the
police heard of it they ordered the
place to be closed. At Vienna serv-
ice in German has been begun in the

-Methodism is now represented in
Burmah. For many years the Baptists
were the only occupants of this great
field. Some time ago the Methodist
Society for the Propagation of the Cos
pei joined the Baptists there. The
Rev. r. E. Carter is the Methodist mis-
sionary, and has established himself in
Rangoon. The Baptists placed their
chapel at his disposal, and series of
meetings were held, at which several
conversions took place. DR.. Thoburn
and Mr.. Goodwin, from India, assisted,
and at the end of their visit of two
weeks church of fifty members and
probationers was organized and ground
for church building secured.

How Myths Originate.

No doubt many legends of the an
cient world, though not really history,
are myths which have arisen by reason
ing on actual events, as definite as that
which, some four years ago, was terri
flying the peasant-mind in North Ger
many, and especially in Posen. The
report had spread far and wide that all
Catholic children with black hair and
blue eyes were to be sent out of the
country, some said to Russia, while
others declared that it was the King of
Prussia who had been playing cards
with the Sultan of Turkey, and had
staked and lost 40, 1000 fair-haired, blue
eyed children; and there were Moors
travelling about in covered carts to COL
lect them; and the school-masters were
helping, for they were to have five dol
lars for every child they handed over.
For time the popular excitement was
quite serious; the parents kept the chill
dren away from school and hid them,
and, when thew appeared in the streets
OF the market-town, the little ones
chung to them with terrified looks. DR..
Schwartze, the well-known mytholo-
gist, took the pains to trace the rumor
to its sources. One thing was quite
plain, that its prime cause was that
grave and learned body, the Anthrop-
illogical Society of Berlin, who, with
out a thought of the commotion they
were stirring up, had, in order to class
the population as to race, induced the
authorities to have census made
throughout the local schools, to ascer-
tain the color of the children's skin,
hair and eyes. Had it been only the
boys, to the Government inspection OF
whom for military CONSUMPTION the
German peasant are only too well &C
customed, nothing would have been
thought of it; but why should the Off
Gals want to know about the little

Rules OF Hospitality.

Render your guest as comfortable as
possible, and his stay pleasant. To
this end
AS soon after his arrival as possible
saddle him with every one of your hob
bies and ride him to exhaustion.
If you are public speaker, rehearse
to him half dozen of your longest and
driest speeches. 1t will give you good
practice. Friends should be utilized.
If YOU are addicted to writing, read
to him everything of yours thatyou can
lay your hands on.
Tell him about your business troubles
and when he would speak of his pleas
ant trip to the mountains cut him of
with a diagnosis of your internal all
ments.
OF course you will show him through
your library; but do not allow his mind
to become absorbed in any one volume
to the neglect of the others. That
would be eminently unjust to those
others. He might be pleased to ind q
favorite, perhaps; but If you give way &c
his wishes, he may go away unlmpresseo
by the magnitude and versatility Of
your literary wealth.
But by all means have passages
ready to turn to in the more preten
tious works, to read to your guest
Not only will you surprise him by youl
intimacy with literature, but you vii
also give him taste of your elocution
