An Imprisoned Congregation.

Some years ago the pastor of church in a rural district of Missouri shepherd ed a flock some mem bers of which were in the habit of leaving the house while he wa yet in tho middle of a discourse. This was an eycsore to the visiting incumbent, and when one day a reverend brother volunteered tc preach for him he felt called upon to speak of the annoyance.
 "Oh, I'll stop that" was tho reply. ''Tll warrant you that no one leaves until I'm done." Accordingly, when he arose to speak he introduced his ser mon with tho following:
 My friends, before begin my ser mon I wish to make few not irrcver- ant remarks. You all know that g vessel when full is full, and that to con tinuo to pour into it is folly. Some vessels arc capable of holding a great deal, while others, again, are easily filed. So it is with mems heads, and it i possible that somc of yours may be come full before Pm through. If so, want you to feel at perfect liberty tt leave."
 Tho sermon lasted an hour and quarter, but not mortal stirred!

Painting Baby's Face.

A letter from Paris informs us that the doctors arc again at war with silly mothers belonging to tho fashionable circles. The latest fanatlcism of La Mode is to arp'y the horrors of face painting to little children. In the pub. lie gardens babies of three years old may now be seen whose eyebrows have been blacked or dyed by their senseless mothers. Other anxious parents, dis tressed at tho vulgarly ruddy aud rustic hue of their childrcn's cheeks, carefully powder them before sen ding them forth to meet the gaze and criticism of the world. Little coquettes of ten years arc not permitted to go abroad until the regulation black stroke has been paint cd beneath their eyes. The doctors warn tho mothers that when tho chil- dren thus barbarously treated reach the age of sixteen they will have a colorless and ruined complexion, to say nothing of tho injury to health, which is an ar gumcnt less likely 10 produce much effect. --lPall Mall G zettc.

That Night.

You and I, and that night, with Its perfume and glory!- The scent of the locusts-the light of the moon; And the violins weaving the waltzers story, Enmeshing their feet in the weft of the tune,
 Till their shadows uncertain
 Reeled round on the curtain, While under the trellis we drank in the June. Soaked through with the midnight the cedars were sleeping, Their shadowy dresses outlined in the bright Crystal, moon -smitten mists, where the fouu- tain's heart, leaping
 Forever, orever, forever burst, full with delight;
 And it's lisp on my spirit
 Fell faint as that near 1t Whose love like lily bloomed out in tho night Oh, your glove was an odorous sachet of blissesi The breath of your fan was breeze of Cathayl And the rose at your throat was a nest of spilled kisses! And the musc-in fancy, hear it today, As I sit here confessing Our secret, and blessing My rival who found us, and waltzed you -{James Whitcomb Riley.

Queer Taxation.

Many strange methods of taxation have been adopted in this country. A review of some of those is interesting The first tax ever imposed was the one levied by Julius C@ ar, who ordered the chiefs of the various clans to send annually to Rome given number of men and wild animals-the former, he said, would be retained as hostages, and tho latter would be used for the great fights in the Colosseum. But very often tho men and the wild animals were put on an equal footing and forced to fight with each other in sight of the blood thirsty and applauding Romans. But of all the taxes ever imposed on peo- ple the "tirth tax'' was the most odi- ous. It lasted thirteen years, dating from 1895. Every person not in re- ceipt of aims was required to pay two shillings for every 'littlc stranger that came into existence. The tax was Q great burden to the lower orders; but the nobility and gentry were subjected to still heavier payments than their poorer neighbors. Thirty pounds had to be paid on the birth of tho child of a duke. This sum gradually diminished, according to certain fixed scale, until it reached ten shillings, the amount levied on real estate of fifty pounds, or personal estate of six hundred pounds and upwards. Reasonable excuse can be given in most cases why it Is that certain things aie taxed; but where the imposers of the ''birth tax" can find an excuse seems to our modern minds im- possible. Contemporaueously with this "birth tax" there existed another called "the bachelors tax" It was not very heavy imposition, and was probably in- tended to be as much reminder of their duty as means of ''raising tho wind" which William ILL 50 often stood in need of. As soon as man reached the age of twenty five ho was liable to tho tax, which was one shilling yearly till he took to himself a spouse. But it did not stop with the bachelors, and here we think it was unjust, for it taxed widowers without children. Be- sides the shilling every person had to pay an amount according to his rank for the luxury (or otherwise) of single blesscdness; thus Duke or an Arch bishop was amerced ID the yearly sum of e12 1os.; and esquire, e1 5s.; gen. tleman, 5s. Social distinctions were nicely drawn then.-[Chamber's Jour- | nal

How Calico Got Its Name.

The derivation of the word ''calico" is very interesting as of such an ancient date in it's origin. Mrs. Leon owens says in her Travels in Iudia' that in the year 149S, just ten months and two days after leaving the port of Lisbon, Vasco da Gama landed on the coast of Malabar at Calicut, or moro properly Kale Rhoda, "City of the Black God dcss." Calicut was at that period not only very ancient seaport, but an ex- tensiyc territory, which, stretching along the western coast of Southern India, reached from Bombay and the adjacent islands to Capa Comorin. It was at an early period so famou, for its weaving and dyeiug of cotton cloth that it's name became identified with the manufactured fabric, whence the name calico. Itis now generally admitted that this ingenious art originated in India in remote ages, and from that country found it's way to Egypt.
 It was not until the middle of the seventeenth century that calico printing was introduced into Europe. A know- edge of tho art was acquired by some of the servants of the Dutch East India company, and carried to Holland whence it was introduced in London in the year 1876. It is surprising fo, grown up children, as we'll as our young folks, to learn that 'P.iny as early as tho first century men tions in his natural history that there existed in Egypt { wonderful method of dyeing white cloth" Calico cannot bo despiscd when it boasts of such antiquity. The shoddy makeup of the present day may look down with contempt upon the calico dress, but what kind of lineage has ita the calico can proudly ask.
