The Anthern.

The rustic choirs greatest show was
always made in the anthem, in which
some pumpkin had generally solo to
exhibit his dusty voice" 1t was Is
splendid musical display-of its kind.
People came from a long distance to
hear it and felt so satiated that they
left without the sermon. No wonder
Shakespeare made Sir John Falstaif lose
his voice with "hallooing and singing Of
anthems" 10 be sure he was guilty Of
an anachronism, for there were no an
thems in the fat knights time, but it
may reasonably be supposed that he had
become so impressed with this part Of
the service in his own day that he
dropped into the nod which even Homer
is privileged occasionally to enjoy.
The Jack Tar who explained a chan

ciples of verbal elongation was not so
far out after all. IF l was to say to

Bill, Bill, give, give give me, give me,
that, that, that handspike, spike, spike,

just after this fashion did the old village
choirs tear and toss their anthem texts.

A New England Girls Unique Way OF
stretching Tight rootgenr.

Stretching Tight Tootgear.
When Mr.. Simpson returned from Bos-
ton, be brought beautiful pair Of shoes
laced shoes. with neat heels and pretty
tOes-for his daughther Ethel, and a
unanimous sigh Of disappointment swept
over the Simpson family when it ap-
peared that these shoes were too small.
No one was more sincerely grieved about
it than Ethel's youngest sister, Evelyn,
who liked pretty shoes as much as Ethel
did. and who had been wearing pair that
could not have been described as any
thing but ''serviceable, though plain"
Evelyn was filed with conflicting
emotions when her father said: perhaps
you can wear No. 8, my dear. If so,
you may have these"
Evelyn knew that though her sister
was six years older than herself, yet they
wore the same sized shoe-No. 4; but
she did not say so. She set her pretty
shoe beside her own stout, roomy one.
The prospect was discouraging.
A little later Ethel came in.
"Why," she exclaimed in surprise,
'you can almost get it on? Try it some
time when your foot is not warm and
swollen as it is now, though l suppose
Papa would never let you wear them if
they went on at all hard"
The shoes stood on Evelyn's dressing
case all day and suggested to her what
must have been the feelings Of Cinder-
elias sisters when tsay tried to cut down
their feet to fit the magic slipEcr. That
evening when she was going to bed she
tried them again, and they actually went
on. They squeezed the poor little feet
as if in a wise, but there they were, on.
About midnight Ethel Simpson was
awakened by a soft knock on her door,
and sitting in the hall outside she dis
covered her little sister Evelyn.
"Oh. Ethel-don't make a noise-my
feetl' she gasped.
''Why, you have your shoes and stock
ings on, Evelyn. The new shoesl Oh,
you poor childr' and in a moment the
elder sister was bending over the suf-
ferer, who had tainted away, with smell
ing salts and pair of scissors.
"You see," sobbed Evelyn, reviving
and watching the cutting of the shoe
lacing with interest, Il thought if l wore
them to bed they would be on in the
morning and could show them to papa
and he would let me keep them. Iwent

It was my feet and those awful shoes.
81 expect every one will laugh at me.
Why. Ethel. you are cryingl Don't. My
feet don't hurt me any more, and papa
will say when you tell him about it. 1t
will be a lesson to her."
It was a lesson to her. She never
wore tight shoes again, but if her father
thought so he did not say it when Ethel
told the story, and no one Of the family
laughed or said a word about it. A day
or two later a package came from Bos-
ton for Evelyn, which contained a beau
tiful pair Of Shoes laced, with neat heel:
and pretty toes and marked "fours. -

Virginia police while dredging on
Woman's Marsh. The mate Of the Tan

thus allowed the officer to get too close

to steer the sloop. Captain Corbin cut
his dredge lines and tossed his helm,
but his vessel played off too much and
she was soon picked up by the canoe. It
is reported that the captured vessel was

ABOUT LEPRosY.
a Fragment of the History of the Terrible
Disease.


a Fragment Of the History OF the Terrible
Leprosy is disease of which,. unfor-
tunately, the majority of the jewellers
In this favored land have only heard.
1t exists in almost every civilized
country In the world. Its distribution
in European countries, however, is not
ut present nearly so wide as it was In
former centuries. It exists to-day In
Spain, Portugal, France. Norway and
Sweden, Italy, Greece and Russia In
the United Statesit Is found, according
to DIR. James C. White. of Louisiana,
in several Of the southern and western
states.
In the seventh and eighth centuries
special leper-houses were founded in
European countries as far north as
France and Germany. From that time
till the thirteenth century leprosy
steadily increased--a result, probably,
of the direct contact into which the
countries of Europe were brought with
the subjects Of Saladin during the CRU
sades. 1t has been stated that there
were in Europe at that time nineteen
| thousand lnzarettos for the housing of
sufferers from this disease. Since that
| time steady decrease In the number
of lepers has taken place.
1t is not definitely known when
| leprosy was first introduced into Amer
| ica, but 1t seems to have been brought
here by the Spaniards at q date long
| preceding the framing of the constitu-
| ton.
There seems to be no doubt that the
disease is contagious, although heredity
doubtless plays part In its distribu-
ton SIS
Since the year 1850 lcprosy has i'm
creased very rapidly in the Hawaiian
| Islands. The government has sought
to check it by stringent regulations
4 requiring the transportation of all
lepers to q particular island, whence
they are not allowed to return. The
disease is largely confined to the ma
tives of the islands More sanitary
