A BAPTISM in HelIgoland,

After service on Sundays, when an in
FAINT is to be christened, small silver
basin is placed on the BRASS lid; there is
no water in it, but presently the Heligo-
land children. babies of two and three
years old, flock in, each carrying in its
little hand a cup of water, which is emp
tied into the basin, and the new born
islander is baptized with the water
brought for that purpose by its future
playfellows Behind the altar the light
falls through the purple window panes
upon an old, old hour glass, placed in
the dark ages before the invention Of
clocks and watches, before the clergy
man when he began his sermon. 1t is Il
marvellous church, this hottest spot on
the @hoiy island, and on the day when
Lord Salisbury's gift is finally handed
over to Germany one of our most inter
esting historical monuments will be ours
no more. The graveyard round the
church is nearly full. and when the last
corner in it las received its sleeper the
difficult question will arise as to where
