A Quaint London Custom.

A recent issue of the London Ne,3S says: Last evening. in accordance with a time-honored custom, the an nuaI "Lion" sermon was preached at St. Katherine Cree, Leadenhall street, by the Rev. Dr. Whittemore. The ori- gin of this service dates back some two and half centuries ago. when, according to tradition, Sir John Gayer, who was at one time Lord Mayor Of London, left sum of money for the purpose of commemorating his re- markable escape from death while journeying in Arabia or some other Eastern country.
 While travelling on this particular occasion Sir John was unexpectedly confronted by a lion. Having no weapon near at hand, the knight feli on his knees in prayer, and, according to the legend, the king of beasts, hay ing taken a quiet survey of the worthy knight, suddenly turned and walked off in another direction, leaving him unharmed. Sir John Gayer, on rising from his devotion, vowed to eommem- crate his unlooked-for escape, and made bequest for instituting a ser vice to be held on the anniversary o. his adventure, which is said to have taken place on the 10th of ocsober.
 The lion sermon from that tune has therefore been annually preached oh this date at St. Katherine Cree. Last night the rector founded his discourse on a passage from the 18th Psalm and part of the 4th verse. Showing to the generations to come the praises of the Lord, and His strength and Hi' wonderful works that He hath done There was a large congregation, and at the conclusion of the service ar offertory was taken on behalf of tho choir funds.

Ten In Bricks.

The Hunnias tIIimalayan nativ. ) drink tea which comes from China in small packets. made up of the large leaves, small branches, seeds, etc, forming a mass reduced. to the small. est possible size by pressure, and rem dered sometimes still more compact by a slight addition of sheep's blood. The Hunnias travel great distances, living only on tea and what the Hindus call Spttoo-that is four made from roasted beans or pea1 T.. prepare the tea, they boil the the leaves for some hours--all night in fact, if they are in camp--il asmall earthern pot; then they pour out the infusion into large basin full of hot water, adding some salt and clarified butter (ghee), if they happen to have it. All these naturally make q kind of soup, and tho natives can live on it several months and undergo severe fatigue without taking any other nour- ishment
 "The method adopted by the Mon- gols and other tartar tribes for the preparation of tea in bricks is," says Johnston in his Chemistry of Common Life, ''it is believed, that which ex- tracts from the leaves the greatest pos sible amount of nourishment. They scrape the tea into fine powder and boil it in the alkaline water of the steppes, adding some fat and salt, af- ter which they pour off the liquid, leaving the deposit. They drink twenty, even forty, glasses of this liquor in the day, mixing in it some honey and butter, with little roast meat; but with only little milk in- stead of the meat they can subsist many weeks with this drink for sole sustance"-Chanlber'S Journal.

The Story of a Greenback.

The following story appears in a late issue of The Atlanta (Ga) Capital:
 In 1864, when a confederate camp was located on Marietta street, an in- cident occurred which, with its sequel, makes an interesting reminiscence of the days when the old Atlanta was more of a soldiers barrack than a city. The camp to which allude was a gool way out on Marietta, and the site is now occupied with number of new dwelling-houses. pr. Roy, of this city, was then one of the physicians of the camp. The late Capt. Alphonse Hurtel, of the 24th Alabama, had been placed in temporary charge of the prison, and one day Yankee prisoner gave him s100 greenback bill to keep, fearing theft on the part Of other pris- oners. Shortly afterward the prisoner escaped, and Capt. Hurtel sent the money to his wife in Mobile, Ala, telling her to keep it, and if he did not send for it, and the confederacy fell, to use it. When Mobile surrendered, that S100 was a godsend to one of the many impoverished families of the Gulf city And now the strange se- quel: Ten years after the close of the war, one day while Capt. Hurtel was sitting in his office, poor and ragged soldier walked in and asked: "Is this Capt. Hurtel?" After a quick glance at the mans features, Capt. Hurtel answered.: "Yes, and you are the soldier who gave me $100 bill in Atlanta, Ga, during the war?" "Yes, sir, am," the soldier replied, as the tears rolled down his cheeks, "and if you will give me just $5 of it now I will be thankful" A check for $100 was given him, and the man fell on his knees and wept like child. Once again had the same money proven a godsend in the hour of bitter need.

CANAAN CONN.,. WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 25 1885,

Some days ago, says the London Telegraph, letter appeared in con. temporary, calling attention to tn, employment of women in collieries--- not in the mines, of course, since that is illegal, but on the bank and at the pits mouth. Large numbers Of women are notoriously so engaged, and it may at once be granted that their occupation is about as unfeml- nine as it is possible to conceive. The work they do makes heavy demands upon physical strength; it's conditions are rude, and, if not actually debasing to those who never knew anything better. do not tend to promote the refinement and delicacy which we instinctively associate with women, while in one not unimportant respect it unsexes the female .aborer bv com polling her to wear the garb of, and beceme almost indistinguishable from her male comrade.

 Avoid all sudden changes between light and darkness
 Never begin Co read. write, or sew for several minutes after coming from darkness to a bright light:
 Never read by twilight or moonlight or on dark, cloudy days.

THE FAMILY PHYSICIAN.

Danger of Large Doses of Quinine.
 At late meeting of the New York Clinical Society, two papers were read in which it was shown that large doses of quinine have deleterious effect on the heart, through the nervous system. This, it appears. is especially the case in typhoid fever, where, through long continued pyreNia, the heart becomes weak or degenerated.

Thanksgiving Day.

When Che orchards with blossoms arc blushing, Tho willows unrolling their leaves, And the fields the tender wheat flushing,
 That soon would be waving with sheaves, Not then went the toiler to labor,
 The task of subdung the earth, With the sound of the pipe and the tabor,
 With anthems of joyanco and mrth. Nor yet when processional flowers
 Passed on through the light or the gloom, When the vivid and picturesque hours
 Laughed out in splendor of bloom. When the oriole, royal and golden,
 Flashes to;th like jem in the sun, St,ll man by stern duty was holden,
 Not yet was the victory won. When the vines on the treilis was burdened With clusters all purple and sweet, When tine hand of the worker was guerdoned With bounty of harvcsts complete; Whom wide over mountain and valley
 Tho banners of autumn, unfurled In vast and magnificent rally,
 Shed lustre and pomp OCT the world ;- Then, pausing to think of the story
 Of promise, fulfillment and cheer, The hope and the faith and the glory,
 The crown of the beautiful year, From the stress of our care-weighted living, The strain of our hurrying days, We break and uplilt n thanksgiving
 To God, who is worthy of praise. And what if the storms lie before u7,
 The days that are weary and cold, Since the love that is vigilant OCT us
 Guards ever the young and the old, Still answers the earnest endeavor With moro than a measured reward, And suffers our weariness never
 To slip from tho grasp of the Lord. So, silvcrcd-haircd father and mother,
 So, middle-aged sturdy and strong, So, dear little sister and brother,
 Join voices and hearts in the song I; To the sound of the pipe and the tabor
 Weave chords of gladness and mirth, For the toler may rest from his labor,
 And plenty hath lowered the earth.
