Two years, or two years and a half
ago Rev. Mr. Norris, in Maine, joined
the Greenbackers in Guilliford. He
voted the Greenback ticket, and that
put him in trouble with his christian
flock. He resigned his charge, and
was sent by Baptist ecclesiastical
body to Burmah as a missionary.
The latest information from him is in
regard to his end. The carnibals
caught him and ate him.

A WESTERN paper tells how judge
stretched a point as follows: a
man on trial for arson in Branch
county, Mich, showed that the house
was owned by his wife, and the Judge
ruled that as he occupied the house
in common with her, and the State
statute defines the crime of arson to
be burning the dwelling of another,
setting fire to the building would not
constitute the crime. The accused
was accordingly discharged"

Not Generally known.

Keys were originally made of wood,
and the earliest form was a simple crook
similar to the common picklock. The
ancient keys are mostly of bronze, and
of remarkable shape, the shaft termina-
ting on one side by the wards, on the
other by a ring. Keys of this descrip-
ton were presented by husbands to
wives, and were returned again upon d.
vorce or separation.
Hats were first made by Swiss at
Paris, A04 A. d. They are mentioned
in history at the period when Charles
VII made his triumphal entry into
Rouen, in 1449. He wore a hat lined
with red velvet, and surmounted with
rich plume of feathers. 1t is from this
reign that hats and caps are dated,
which henceforth began to take place OF
the chaperoons and hoods that had been
worn before in France. Previous to
the year 1910 the men and women Of
England wore close-knit woolen caps.
The custom of crowning the poets
originated among the Greeks, and was
adopted by the Romans during the EN-
pire. 1t was revived in the twelfth oen-
tury by the emperor of Germany, who
invented the title Of poet-laureate. The
French had royal poets, but no laure-
ates. The title existed in Spain, but
little is known of those who bore it.
The tradition concerning the laureate in
England is that of Edward III, in 1867,
emulating the crowning of Petrarch, at
Rome, in 1S41, granted the Office to
Chaucer, with q yearly pension. In 1880
the laureate was made patent Office.
From that time there has been a regular
succession of laureates.
Until the close of the eighteenth GEN.
tury the finest muslins in use were I'M
ported from India. The earliest mention
of cotton among the classic nations OF
antiquity is by Herodotus, who speaks
it by the name of tree-wool, which name
ii still bears in German and several
other continental languages. Cotton
was not known in Egypt until about SOC
years before Christ. Then it appears
probable that it was imported, for al
the cloths found enveloping the mum
mics of earlier ages have proved on ex
animation to be linen. Cotton cloths
are mentioned as having been imported
into London in 1896, the knowledge O
both the culture and manufacture hay
ing probably been conveyed there b,
the Moors and other Mohammedan na
tions. The former were the means o
first bringing this manufacture int
Europe.

First in interest, perhaps, comes Prof.
Sayce's commentary ON tie newly found
inscription at the Pool of Sloan. A
text which dates from the time of Solo,
mon is, indeed, rare monument.
There is next discovery made by
Lieut.. Condor, which may prove of even
greater interest. He has found, close to
the spot where he places the site Of the
Crucifixion, which is still called the
Place of Stoning, a Jewish tomb of
Herodian period, standing alone, cut in
the rock. "Can this be, he asks, ''the
new Sepulchre in the Garden p" A
drawing and plan of the tomb have been
made for the Society. Another drawing
has been made of the real mouth of Ja-
cob's well, recently discovered by the
Rev. c. L. Bardsley. The well mouth
is much worn by the friction of ropes.
1t was formerly covered over by a
Christian church, and if, as is possible,
this church dates back to the second or
third century, the stone should be no
other than the very stone on which our
Lord conversed with the woman of
Samaria. Another discovery, only in
directly connected with the Bible, is
that of the ancient Hittite city of Ka-
desh, ON the Orontes. Not the least
surprising about this are the facts that
Lieutenant Condor found it from an
Egyptian record written three thousand
years ago, and that the old name,
though it has disappeared from history
since the thirteenth century before
Christ, is still attached to it. Another
paper in the same number of the journal
clears up curious mystery attached to
Ain Gadis, the probable site Of Kadesh
Barnea. 1t was visited and described
in glowing terms by Mr.. Rowland, forty
years ago. No one has since been able
to reconcile his statements with those of
other travellers. Mr. Trumbull, of
Philadelphia, has now, however, disco
vered that no other travellers have seen
the real fountain since Rowland, having
all been taken to another spring ten
miles distant from the real Ain Gadis,
II il most remarkable spring-it issues
full-grown stream from the rock IL
forms mn oasis IN which there is abuu-
dance Of grass, with great trees, even in
tho arid desert Of the Tih; il runs away
and loses itself in the sand. The place
may or may not bc Kadcsh Barnea, but
those who believe that il N will hence
forth read the history Of the events
which took place there with far greater
interest and fuller understanding. At
all events, II IN quite clear that there IN
plenty Of water, and to spare, and even
for large numbers who eneampcd ut ka-
desh.

In the West Indies.

Strange as 1t may seem at first sight,
everybody IL the West Indies eats very
large meals. The climate is SO hot that
Won take food freely to make up for Ma
ture's losses, and the appetite has to be
stimulated by great variety of dishes,
as well as Ly the copious use of those
very insidious capsicums and the still
more delicious little red and yellow bird
peppers. A few OF these tempting fruits
are placed in the salt-cellar at every
meal. and. with the bright tropical
flowers which invariably garnish the Ia
BILE in pretty specimen vases, they give
a general air of pleasant esthetlc refine
-nent to the whole arrangements. Break
fast is a really solid and substantial re-
past. usually put off till half-past ten
O'Clock. the pangs OF pressing hunger
being stilled before the early morning
canter by cup of coffee in the bedroom
With it sometimes comes a cassaya-cslke,
one of the hest Jamaican institutions,
made by the negro villagers from the
roughly-scraped meal of the arrowroo'
plant. This meal is rolled into thin
paste and then baked hard and dry into
round cakes about the thickness OF
Scotch oatmeal hammock, but much more
delicate in taste.

Experience shows us that unless the
habit of being orderly is cultivated in
youth it never will he ours in mature
years. The disorderly girl may be sub
iect to spasmodic fits of tidiness, and at
such times her closets, bureau drawers
and boxes Will be put in order, but rs
these attacks are but temporary they are
soon over and the old way fallen into
again. Such n girl may be good and
clever in many respects, but her want
of order and system, besides being an
inconvenience to herself, will also he,
more or less, trial to those about her.
GirlhOod is the time when habits are
formed, and if an impulse to be orderly
is followed then, it will grow upon us
until it will become second nature, and
disorder will be 4 pain to Us. Ii, how
ever, during these Years We are careless,
put things in their proper places If 1t
is convenient, and if not leave them

hold to pick up and put away for IA, We
are doing ourselves an injury which. if
not apparent now, will he when we have
reached womanhoOd.
Some girls make their things last 50
much longer Than Others, and We Won
der sometimes by what magic they can
be worn so long without looking shabby.
The reason Is, that they take good care
of them. Their dresses are brushed
carefully and the slightest spot upon
them removed before hanging them
away, ribbons and laces are folded AMI
laid away with care, gloves are menie,i
when the tiniest hole shows itself, a but
ton lost from a shoe i restored immedi-
ately, and ''the stitch IN time" keeps

Toads Among Plants.

In the matter of feeding the toad is
not very particular, either as to quality
or quantity. Anything that creeps or
crawls will do for him-wood lice, bee
ties, spiders, slugs, worms, even snails
with their shells, are put ont of sight as
if by magic, for he has peculiar way OF
catching his prey. He watches the
moving insect for second or two; then
suddenly darting out his tongue at a
distance of one or two inches, the insect
is snatched up and swallowed instantly.
One evening a gentleman gave one n
wasp and humble bee. Both were
snatched up directly, and they COM
menced to move, apparently without
causing the toad the slightest discom-
fort, though they must have reached his
stomach in tolerably active condition.
In plant houses, especially forcing
houses, where insects increase their
numbers so rapidly at all seasons, the
toad's services are especially valuable !;
and if suitable ladder, made of narrow
board with bits of lath tackled on it two
inches apart, be set in corner, slanting
from the door TO the stage, he Will climb
it, and thus be enabled 10 make himself
still more useful. But perhaps the most
remarkable fact concerning the toad is,
that though he can, and does. eat great
deal, he can exist long time without
eating anything. Years ago he buried
one for a month in the earth, rs an ex-
pertinent, and when dug up it was ap-
parently as well as ever. More recently,
having been bothered with myriads Of
wood lice in an early cucumber house,
and not being able to find toads in Feb
ruary, he, later on, when they became
plentiful, buried three in a nine-inch
pot, with slate on top, eighteen inches
under the ground, that he might have
them handy for the next early forcing
season. But that season he did not re-
quire them, NO they remained buried
until the following one, and were then,
on being taken up, apparently not much
the worse for their eighteen months
fast, though they did not have any lee
water or alcoholic baths.
