From Home and Country New YORK; for
July, By Charlotte Halves

From Home and Country New York) for
July, By Charlotte HAYES
Once in Switzerland | stopped
at the little village of Burglen,
right on the very spot where
William Tell lived, for | am one to
believe his story with all nv
heart, and keep the spirit OF it i'm
the world, just as | would keep the
spirit of Santa Claus for the child
rem, in spite Of all that is said
against it. Well, every morning
and evening, right bv my
window rang the "matin"
and "vesper" bells, call
ing the villagers to their simple
service, and they came, many with
tools in their hands to leave them
at the door, barefooted, to en-
ter and kneel in prayer
before going to their daily
labor. The bell is called the
"Angelus" in that country, and if
you had once heard it as | have,
you would love and cherish all its
associations. Let me tell you one
little story of the curfew.
In an English village a bride
stole forth Ginevra-like, on her
wedding-dav, to hide in the furze,
but, becoming frightened, tried to
find her way back, and taking the
wrong path she was soon lost, and
heavy snow-storm coming with
the darkness, the girl became
terrified with visions of robbers
and danger in every form, when
suddenly through this dismal
gloom came the sound of the dear
old curfew, sweet and low. Guided
by it to her home, she fell upon
her knees in gratitude. When she
died she bequeathed not only
chime of bells to the church of her
little village, but money to keep
up the custom always of ringing
the curfew.

Taking a Telephone to Bed.

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
A doctors profession requires
him if he seeks convenience and
comfort, to have two telephones,
one in his office and one in his
bedroom. AS any one who has to
pay tribute to the telephone COM
panies knows, their charges hardly
represent the progress that has
been made in other lines in the
world in cheapening commodities.
But necessity is the mother Of
invention, and a doctor in the
East End found way to have the
convenience Of two telephones and
yet only pay for one. He has his
telephone hung upon hooks in his
office, the connections being made
by the telephone coming in contact
with an electric board which he
has had constructed. He also has
wires run to his bedroom, where an
other electric board has been
placed. The doctor may be said to
take his telephone to bed with him
every night. He takes it from the
hooks in his office, carries it under
his arm up to his bedroom and
places it upon the hooks there.
Should any calls come during the
night he can answer them without
leaving his room, thereby getting
the use Of two telephones for the
price of one.
